With the help of organic extruded materials, humans were able to "create" islands attached to the reef in a short period of time, but these islands were too fragile to withstand the impact of the waves. If you ignore it, half a month will be washed away.

Next, we rely on a microorganism called Haiyuan bacteria.

Lu Yang specially checked, this kind of thing does not exist on the earth, it is similar to Zhuguo, it can be cultivated under special conditions. Haiyuan fungus is a fungus organism, similar to many bacteria, small in size, invisible to the naked eye. Its life is very short, only one hour, and after death, it secretes a special substance called sea liquid, which is a key role in land formation.

By cultivating a large number of marine bacteria and then putting them on the island formed by organic extruded material, the island body will undergo great changes as the marine bacteria die and the marine original liquid is produced. The sea stock solution will have a wonderful reaction with the puffed material, and this reaction needs to be catalyzed by the seawater in the puffed material. In about a week, this reaction will be completed, and then the extruded material will start to have considerable strength and be able to resist the beating of wind and waves.

If this step is continued, more and more marine liquid will enter the extruded material, and the extruded material will be continuously modified, and the island will become more and more stable. In about eight to ten weeks, the sea liquid can enter 50 meters of extruded material and transform it into a substance with the same hardness as soil and stone.

In this way, the second step of land creation is completed.

As for the third step, which is similar to the second step, it is necessary to continue to release the sea fungus. However, at this time, the release is more technical, because some islands and reefs are out of the water, some are hidden under the sea surface, some are deep and some are shallow, and where the sea stock cannot be reached, it needs to be specially released. In the contact part between the extruded material and the original islands and reefs, special injections should also be made, and the marine raw solution can make the extruded materials and the original islands and reefs integrated.

The fourth part is the problem of soil. This needs to be transported by land, because there is no way to turn the extruded material into dirt.

This method of land creation on islands and reefs is low-cost, fast, and amazingly effective. Lu Yang estimated that with the strength of Huaxia Industry, it is completely capable of manufacturing this organic extruded material, and as for cultivating Haiyuan bacteria, it is actually not difficult. The price of the two is not high, and the cost of building a square kilometer of land on an island and reef within a water depth of 50 meters is less than 50 million. If the conditions on the reef are better, the cost can be reduced even more.

Most importantly, in this way, it is possible to create land over a large area and quickly. There are many islands and reefs in the South China Sea, and many of them are connected, and through this land-making method, the shallow-water archipelago can be connected together, and a huge land mass can be quickly constructed.

"What a land artifact!" Lu Yang praised.

"This sea is so beautiful!" Through Pangu, Lu Yang controls several U.S. reconnaissance satellites, which are specialized in U.S. reconnaissance of the South China Sea, with high resolution. He asked Pangu to switch to several relatively large islands in the South China Sea, and saw many beautiful scenery that was unimaginable before. In his opinion, the natural scenery here is not inferior to that of any island in the world, and if large-scale land creation can be made, tourism alone will be a large amount of income in the future.

There are four islands in the South China Sea, namely Dongsha Islands, Xisha Islands, Zhongsha Islands and Nansha Islands, and the South China Sea is currently under the jurisdiction of the Island Province.

Lu Yang took a look, and it seemed that the state was intending to build land on the Xisha Islands, and judging from the US reconnaissance satellites, it could be found that there were quite a few movements on the Xisha Islands.

"The Paracel Islands are the closest to the island province, and the country chose them for security reasons. However, I think in terms of value, the Nansha Islands are bigger than the Xisha Islands......," Lu Yang thought in his heart, "but the strength of the Nansha Islands is too weak, and it is too risky to build land there, so it is better to choose the Zhongsha Islands." The sea conditions here are good, and the location is also very important, right in the middle of the South China Sea shipping lane. If there is a seaport here, many ships going to China, Japan and Korea will be able to resupply nearby, and there will be no need to go to the Philippines......"

Lu Yang checked the information again, Zhongsha Islands are about 100 kilometers away from Xisha Islands, except for Huangyan Dao, most of the islands are a group of coral reefs that have not been exposed to the water. What made Lu Yang angry was that the Philippines actually wanted to compete with China for the sovereignty of Scarborough Shoal.

"Let's choose Scarborough Shoal." Lu Yang decided to come down.

Lu Yang plans to develop nano-organic extruded materials and cultivate marine bacteria while applying to the Chinese government to develop the Zhongsha Islands. Given the current situation in the South China Sea and international disputes, this application may not go so smoothly. But Lu Yang is not worried, he believes that as long as the Chinese government sees the land-making technology on islands and reefs he demonstrates, it will absolutely agree to his application. Because of this, Huaxia will have a more reliable strategic fulcrum than 10 aircraft carriers in the Zhongsha Islands.

Lu Yang asked Su Yan to register a company, called Nanhai Development Company, which did not belong to Tianxin Group, but to Lu Yang alone. After the company was registered, Lu Yang submitted a request to the Marine Department of the Island Province to develop the Zhongsha Islands.

Song Zijian is a staff member of the Oceanic and Fisheries Bureau of the Island Province, working in the Zhongsha Islands Office, and is already a 37-year-old section-level cadre. This made Song Zijian quite annoyed, because several of his classmates who entered the agency with him were already at the deputy department level, and the one with the smoothest official path was already a department-level cadre, two levels higher than him. Occasionally, when everyone meets, others talk and laugh, but Song Zijian can't interject, which makes him very embarrassed.

However, Song Zijian's mood has been much better recently, and it has long been rumored in the unit that the state may cancel the three major offices of Xisha Islands, Nansha Islands, and Zhongsha Islands, and set up a prefecture-level city to be responsible for the jurisdiction of the South China Sea Islands. For him, this is an opportunity, and if he can enter the newly established prefecture-level city, he will likely move up the ranks by half a level.

Just when he was thinking about how to give the leader a walk, his subordinate Li Li knocked on the door and came in.

"Director, I just received an application, I don't know what to do with it......" Li Li's face was very strange, as if he had seen something strange.

"I'll take a look......," Song Zijian took the document from Li Li's hand, "about the development of Zhongsha Islands...... Let's apply for oil and gas development again. ”

In recent years, with the intensification of resource consumption in China, domestic enterprises have frantically searched for resources, and the South China Sea has also become the target of major companies.

"No, director, this application is not about resource exploration, but about land reclamation." Li Lidao.

"Reclamation?" Song Zijian immediately looked down, and sure enough, what was written on the application was land reclamation in the Zhongsha Islands.

"Who's doing this prank!" Song Zijian was furious, "What are you doing with such a document to me, just throw it away!" ”

No wonder Song Zijian thinks so, the cost of land reclamation in the South China Sea is unimaginable, except that the country can afford it, who will do this?

Li Li said: "If it was an ordinary person, I would have thrown this document a long time ago, the key is that the identity of the applicant is very special." Director, I have checked this South China Sea development company, it was registered not long ago, although the registered capital is not very high, only 100 million. However, its registered legal person is Lu Yang, the CEO of Tianxin Group, the new richest man in China. I think that a person of his status should not be idle and boring, right? ”

Song Zijian exclaimed: "Li Li, have you found out about this matter?" Are you sure the applicant is Lu Yang? ”

Li Li nodded heavily: "Director, if I haven't figured out such a thing, I don't dare to tell you." ”

Song Zijian believes that Li Li has been under him for three years, and he is usually very steady in doing things, and when it comes to such a big matter, he will definitely be more careful.

"It's not up to us to decide. As you know, part of the Zhongsha Islands is under the control of the Philippines, and if it is not good, this is an international dispute. Song Zijian was very sober in his head.

"Well, I can only report it...... Director, do you think the above will agree? Li Li seemed a little unwilling. In his heart, he hoped that Lu Yang's application would be approved, because it meant that Huaxia would fight for actual control of the Zhongsha Islands, otherwise Lu Yang would not be able to develop them.

And once Huaxia decides to start, the Philippines will be unlucky, which is exactly what Li Li wants to see.
