Chapter 410: Captain Ghost's Treasure

Thousands of miles of blue water, sea and sky, a streamlined 4-seater yacht is heading towards the interior of Atlantis.

Atlantis is already surrounded by a chain of islands, and the sea here is not very stormy, and the white spray of the yacht leaves a long spreading wake on the calm sea.

From time to time, one or two aircraft passed by, and the further they sailed inside, more and more aircraft appeared in the sky.

"Atlantis currently has a total of six rings under construction, and in addition to the sixth ring, which is being reclaimed, the fifth ring we are just in is responsible for most of the maritime passenger and cargo tasks.

It is home to the world's largest automated cargo port in terms of throughput, and because of the booming spaceport and related space industries, high-tech items from all over the world are converging here.

Several of them are Chinese, and they should have heard of the Space Development Center in Zhoushan Port, where more than 30% of Atlantis' imports come from, and the proportion of Chinese working on the island is also the highest.

In addition to the infrastructure, Atlantis has also procured a large number of cutting-edge technological items from various countries in the form of public tenders to fill the civilian facilities on Atlantis, such as the Robocop you see in the security hall. ”

On the dinghy, wearing Little Red Riding Hood and holding a small flag in her hand, Alice, a professional tour guide, pointed to a large number of ships coming and going in the distance and introduced the three of Chris.

"The island has the world's most developed air traffic network, and in addition to using vertical take-off and landing aircraft to communicate the island chain, high-speed maglev technology has also been fully rolled out here.

The high-speed maglev train from the 5th Ring Road can reach the central island of Atlantis in less than 10 minutes, and can even go directly to the spaceport through the space elevator, which is the most efficient transportation in the world!

In addition, the maglev track connection between the island chain and the island chain adopts the world's first 'underwater dark bridge', that is, above the sea surface, we will not see any rail bridge, only the speeding train, look! It's coming......"

The three of them followed the prestige, only to see a speeding white figure, whistling with silver wings stirred up on both sides!

After careful discernment, they realized that it was actually a bullet train.

"Whoosh!" The train brushed the dinghy at high speed, and the shock wave it brought even made the dinghy shake slightly, causing several people to exclaim.

"'Blade Speed'! This is also one of the famous tourist attractions of Atlantis, and Atlantis' magnetic technology has far exceeded everyone's imagination......" Alice smiled as she pointed to the train that was rapidly moving away.

"Uh-huh! is worthy of being my idol Captain Ghost, and being the owner of the island is also so stylish! The fat man wiped his messy hair in the wind, full of adoration.

"There are so many ways to get around, so why do we take a yacht? Better visibility in the air, right? And it's safer! The thin man was a little frightened by the scene of the high-speed train whistling past him not far away.

"Hee-hee! Don't worry, all vehicles in Atlantis have been connected to the control center, all of them are autonomous, and the probability of traffic accidents is still zero so far! As for why you chose a yacht......

Alice laughed and snapped her fingers, "Click! ”

A transparent glass cover suddenly rose around the dinghy, enveloping several people. After a few moments, the dinghy began to slowly descend and dive to the surface of the sea under the surprised gaze of the three men......

The dinghy dived deeper and deeper, the lights turned on, and the three of them seemed to enter another world, with schools of fish, bizarre corals, and mottled shipwrecks from time to time.

"Cool!" The fat man exclaimed.

After taking the trio on a fantastic journey to the bottom of the sea, the dinghy soon approached the fourth ring of Atlantis, where a wall-like black shadow stood in front of everyone.

"This ...... This is?! The eyes of the three widened.

"This is the island base of the four-ring island chain! As you can see, Atlantis is a veritable ...... Iron Island! Alice's words of admiration rang in the ears of the three of them.

The foundation of the island in front of everyone is completely made of a large number of criss-crossing discarded steel, and even a few places are directly filled with huge steel shipwrecks!

Chris looked at the huge steel foundation with inexplicable eyes, and said in a whisper-like tone, "Steel is the largest bulk trade commodity in Atlantis, and every month, more than 60% of the world's steel exports gather here.

It is said that most of the steel will be thrown directly into the sea and become the foundation of the island chain, except for some of the materials that will be used in construction and industrial manufacturing...... This rumor is actually true! ”

"Brother Chris is right, not only that, but the resources mined from the moon, in addition to some energy and rare earths, the largest number of goods transported back to the earth are also finished steel!" Alice nodded.

"But this ...... That's too extravagant, isn't it? The fat man exclaimed.

"It may be a luxury to others, but to Captain Ghost, it may be like changing the flooring of his house to a new decoration material.

It is rumored that Atlantis seems to have a soft spot for steel, and its first move was to unveil the world's seabed mining technology, which soon followed a global wave of mergers and acquisitions.

Following the four major mining groups, Atlantis has successively acquired a large number of shares in world-class steel manufacturing companies such as ArcelorMittal, Treasure Group, and Nippon Steel with unlimited coins and technology exchanges as bargaining chips, relying on low raw material mining and manufacturing costs, and then carried out comprehensive technological transformation.

As a result, steel manufacturing became the first industry to be completely globalized, with a high degree of control of the entire chain in Atlantis' hands.

Because of its advanced environmental protection and smelting technology, the global environmental index is rising, but the cost of steel is falling sharply, and the downstream manufacturing industry is rejoicing, and even driving the price of industrial products around the world.

After Atlantis committed to a steel price negotiation mechanism, it also became the first industry to be recognized by various countries as a legal monopoly. ”

After Chris said this with some embarrassment, he realized that the three people around him were all looking at him strangely.

"Ahem! In fact, when I came here this time, in addition to seeing this legendary miracle island, I also wanted to find some investment projects on the island, so I naturally did some homework. Chris explained with a cough.

This is not an excuse, as the CEO of a former top company, he has a large number of unlimited coins in his hands at this time, and if he puts it in his account, he can only sit and wait for inflation and depreciation, and the best way to increase assets is naturally to make investments.

And what better investment area has more investment potential than Atlantis and the surrounding space industry?

However, Chris has a sum of "black money" in his hand, the source is unknown, and the normal investment channels are easy to be discovered by creditors all over the world looking for him, so it is true that Chris is looking for a suitable investment project.

Hearing Chris's explanation, everyone nodded knowingly.

There are a lot of tourists who come to Atlantis, and many more who come to pan for gold, and it's not surprising that Chris has such an idea.

The dinghy carried the three of them all the way forward, and when they passed through the specially opened underwater passage, the sharp-eyed thin man suddenly noticed a strange sight.

"Huh? So something seems to be glittering at the bottom of the sea? ”

Through the faint light of the searchlight, several people saw the dark depths of the sea, and there seemed to be a little bit of silver light flickering, like stardust.

"Huh! That's right, it's also one of the wonders of Atlantis, known as 'Captain Ghost's Treasure'! ”

"Captain Ghost's treasure?!" The fat and thin man's eyes lit up when they heard this.

"Naturally, it's fake! According to experts' speculation, it may be a large amount of steel accumulation, a fluorescent substance that has been corroded by seawater, or a reflection of special steels such as stainless steel and mirror steel. Alice explained.

"I see......"

The dinghy quickly passed the steel foundation, and in the depths of the ocean behind it, a little silver light still shimmered......
