Chapter 267: The road is narrow

On the "City of Stars", the new office building of the Star Group looks majestic and majestic.

In Liu Hui's office, he stood in front of a large floor-to-ceiling glass window, looking at the huge "Starry Sky City" construction tower crane site in the distance, and didn't know what he was thinking.

Li Lian stood respectfully behind Liu Hui and asked in a low voice, "Boss, what is your arrangement this morning?" ”

Since Liu Hui left Hong Kong with the "Starry Sky City", he has felt a burst of relief in his heart. Since the beginning of domestic development three years ago, he has been planning this place that is completely his. And until today, this place that belongs entirely to him finally has a rough outline.

Liu Hui can now experiment with the ideal society in this city that belongs to him completely. Perhaps, through the practice of this ideal society, he may be able to change the world. As soon as Liu Hui thought of this, his mind became more broad and broad.

Liu Hui listened to Li Lian's question, he smiled and said, "This morning is still the same, go to the beach to fly a seaplane." ”

Since the "City of Stars" has been driven to the current sea area, Liu Hui has asked people to assemble a small seaplane, which has been greatly modified and is not quite the same as other aircraft.

Once the seaplane is assembled, it will be powered entirely by all-electric power, which is powered by high-grade gemstones. After testing, if a fourth-level energy stone is installed on this plane, with the huge electrical energy of one million kilowatt-hours in this fourth-level energy stone, this seaplane can fly continuously in the sky for more than 50,000 kilometers.

Liu Hui began to learn how to fly this seaplane, and in less than a week, he was able to fly this seaplane into the sky alone. After learning to fly the plane, Liu Hui would spend a period of time every day, flying the plane in the sky for two hours.

Those who saw Liu Hui start to fly a seaplane to the sky thought that Liu Hui had begun to like pleasure after getting on the "Starry Sky City", and then became obsessed with the pleasant feeling of flying the plane into the blue sky.

In fact, the reason why Liu Hui took the time to learn how to fly this seaplane and modified this plane was completely to prepare for one of his plans.

Since two years ago, Xiao Hei has been arranged by Liu Hui to explore mineral resources on the deep seabed of the Pacific and Indian Oceans. In the meantime, I also found the super big iron mine and the super big oil field. Although Xiao Hei later found some other mineral resources, the quality and reserves of these mineral deposits were far from comparable to those of the two previous super mines. As the nearby waters have gradually been detected by Xiaohei, the distribution of mineral resources in these waters has been mapped by the Star Group.

Now, as the construction of the "Starry Sky City" begins to accelerate, more mineral resources other than iron ore are needed. With such a huge construction scale of the "Starry Sky City", the world's proven mineral resources combined cannot meet its construction needs, so Liu Hui only let Xiao Hei explore the required mineral deposits on the deep seabed in the past two years, hoping to find enough mineral resources on the seabed to make up for the lack of resources on land.

In these sea areas explored by Xiao Hei, although some mineral resources required by the "City of Stars" have also been discovered, the scale of these mineral resources is not very large, and the quality is not very high, and they still cannot meet the needs of the construction of the "City of the Stars".

In the past two years, Xiao Hei has almost explored the seabed in the 5,000-kilometer controlled area of Liu Hui, but the more mineral resources that Liu Hui needs have not been found.

Liu Hui then came up with an idea, that is, to let Xiao Hei look for mineral deposits outside his control range of 5,000 kilometers.

In order to achieve this idea, Liu Hui began to learn how to fly a seaplane, and then he would use the seaplane to fly 5,000 kilometers away from the location, and then direct Xiao Hei to swim to his location. Then an order was issued for Xiao Hei to explore mineral resources in that area. After a period of time, Liu Hui drove the plane to pick up Xiao Hei back. Then by sharing Xiao Hei's memories, he will know whether the sea area that Xiao Hei explores has the mineral resources he needs.

After a period of airplane piloting, Liu Hui quickly mastered the essentials of flying. Today, he is able to fly the seaplane very proficiently. And now, it is the day when he decides to implement Xiaohei's remote prospecting plan.

Liu Hui and Li Lian took a car, escorted by two vehicles of the Star Security Company, along the spacious and tidy road to a warehouse by the sea, and saw his modified seaplane docked on the dock next to the warehouse, and several staff members were conducting detailed inspection and maintenance of it.

"Pony, what's going on with this plane?" After Liu Hui got out of the car, he asked a young man.

"Boss, after our inspection, we didn't find any problems with your seaplane. It is in exceptionally good condition, and can fly at least 20,000 kilometers safely. Pony said.

"Is there a problem with the energy on it, can it support its flight range of 20,000 kilometers?" Liu Hui asked.

"Boss, rest assured, the energy on this plane is enough to allow it to fly more than 20,000 kilometers." Pony said with some sighs.

Pony is an aircraft mechanic who is very familiar with the structure, function, and technology of aircraft. But he didn't know where the boss found this super energy core, and actually let the plane rely entirely on electricity to drive, and this energy core could also allow this seaplane to fly more than 50,000 kilometers. If it were to burn fuel, the fuel consumption of this seaplane to fly 50,000 kilometers would be a huge number, but now with such an energy core, this seaplane can make a real long-haul flight.

"It would be nice if that was the case, I'm going to fly it a few laps today. Maybe I'll go to play when I see a beautiful island on the sea, but I'll come back very late, so don't wait for me, I'll drive the plane into the warehouse by myself when I come back. Liu Hui said with a smile, he decided to carry out Xiao Hei's mission to explore mineral deposits today, so he would definitely fly for a long time before giving these people a warning in advance, lest they find themselves delayed and cause confusion.

Seeing that Liu Hui was going to fly this seaplane, the security personnel of the Star Security Company, who had been following Liu Hui, immediately boarded the plane, and they took out some high-tech instruments to conduct a safety inspection of the seaplane, but did not find any suspicious items or abnormal signal sources on it. Only then did they signal to Liu Hui that there was no problem with the plane and that it was ready to fly in the sky at any time.

Liu Hui said to these security personnel: "I have something to do today, so don't follow me, I will be careful about the safety issues." Also, don't use satellites to locate me, I'm afraid that my location will be known by the family and there will be trouble, as for the reason, you should understand. Liu Hui's tone when he said this was as if he was going out to cheat, and the security personnel were stunned for a moment, and immediately nodded knowingly.

Usually, when Liu Hui pilots the plane to the sky, the security personnel of the security company drive the plane to follow him and protect his safety at any time. But Liu Hui has a special operation today, which requires flying a distance of tens of thousands of kilometers, and he naturally doesn't want these people to follow him, because his actions today are really a bit weird, and he can't explain them at all.

Liu Hui's seaplane has undergone a lot of modifications, and these changes have made it extremely safe. In addition, Liu Hui's individual strength has reached the foundation building period of cultivation, and there are not many things in this world that can pose a threat to his safety, even if he encounters an enemy, if he can't beat it, he can run away, so he stopped these security personnel from protecting him and positioning satellites.

These security personnel also clearly knew the degree of transformation of this seaplane, knew that there was basically no danger in piloting this seaplane, and today's boss had an ambiguous attitude, as if there was something unsightly to do, and it was inconvenient for them to follow, so they asked Wu Yuanjia before letting Liu Hui board the seaplane alone.

This seaplane not only uses electricity to drive the interior, but also has a special formation arranged on its shell, which is the energy-absorbing formation, which can absorb all the energy waves from the outside world, that is to say, any scan of this aircraft cannot find this aircraft, because their scanning waves will be absorbed by this formation. So not only the electromagnetic radar can't detect this plane, but even the aura fluctuation radar can't detect the existence of this plane.

In addition, this seaplane was also arranged with a simple solid formation, which made its fuselage more than ten times stronger, and even if it was attacked in the air, it would not necessarily be able to hurt it. At the same time, the aircraft is also equipped with a dynamic simulation formation, which can make the seaplane simulate the surrounding environment and cleverly integrate into the surrounding environment, so as to hide the tracking of other optical equipment.

After such a big change, this plane has long been unrecognizable, so these security personnel are relieved to let Liu Hui fly in the sky alone, because the survivability of this seaplane in the sky is too strong.

Liu Hui boarded the seaplane, and just as he was about to close the window, he suddenly remembered where he was going today, so he said to Li Lian, who was standing next to him: "Li Lian, go and bring me the thick clothes I put in the car." ”

Li Lian was a little puzzled, the weather is not very cold now, what does the boss want to do with thick clothes. However, she still walked to the car and took the thick clothes, and then handed them to Liu Hui.

Liu Hui took the thick dress and said, "Li Lian, I may come back late today, and I won't go back to the company." If someone comes to me on an errand, you ask them to come back tomorrow. ”

Li Lian said: "Boss, there is no problem, I will say this to them." After a while, she added: "Boss, you are flying in the sky, but you must pay attention to safety!" ”

Liu Hui smiled: "I know, I didn't expect you little girl to care about me so much!" You don't seem to have a boyfriend yet! When I get back, I'll help you find a handsome boyfriend in the company. ”

Li Lian was about to get angry with her red face, but Liu Hui suddenly closed the window of the plane and started to start the plane engine. A few minutes later, the seaplane took off under the piloting of Liu Hui, circled over the "Starry Sky City" and flew towards the southeast.

The "City of Stars" is now located near the Northern Mariana Islands in the western Pacific Ocean, and Liu Hui is now flying a seaplane to the southeast, with the South Pacific Ocean in front of him.

Black's previous activities were mainly in the Pacific and Indian Oceans, and it has surveyed the seabed deposits in these seas. Therefore, when Liu Hui was thinking about Xiao Hei's next prospecting destination, he set his sights on the South Pacific waters between the southeast of Australia and the Antarctic continent.

The reason why Liu Hui chose this sea area for exploration is because this sea area is close to Antarctica, and there are very few ships operating here, and if a large number of mineral resources can be found here, it will also be conducive to quiet mining work on the seabed in the future.

And the South Pacific Sea is far beyond the 5,000-kilometer radius that Liu Hui commanded Xiao Hei, so he must rush to this place in person, and then call Xiao Hei over, and then rush back after giving Xiao Hei the task. Such a round-trip flight will be more than 18,000 kilometers, and the flight time will be close to 20 hours, fortunately, Liu Hui's physical strength is amazing, if it were someone else, it would be impossible to fly alone for 20 hours.

After Liu Hui summoned Xiao Hei to this sea area, he asked Xiao Hei to explore mineral deposits in this sea area. Then after a period of time, Liu Hui piloted the plane to pick up Xiao Hei back, and at the same time shared Xiao Hei's memory, so that he could know the distribution of mineral deposits in this sea area.

Liu Hui drove this seaplane in this way and kept flying towards the southeast at an altitude of 1,000 meters, because of the energy-absorbing formation on his plane, no radar could detect him, and if he didn't turn on the communicator, even the satellites of the Star Group in the sky couldn't find him. Due to the all-electric drive, the sound of the aircraft engine is also very quiet, and with the dynamic simulation formation, no one can visually detect him. So he was very safe along the way and was not disturbed by anything.

Liu Hui swaggered through Papua New Guinea, the Solomon Islands, and the east coast of Australia along the way, and then came to the southeast sea of Australia.

After arriving at this sea area, Liu Hui had already entered the farthest distance to control Xiao Hei. So Liu Hui began to summon Xiao Hei to go south, and after Xiao Hei received the order to go south, he immediately went south quickly.

Liu Hui drove the plane on, while Xiao Hei quickly approached in his direction. And at this time, Liu Hui suddenly felt Xiao Hei's spirit lifted, as if he had found something at the bottom of the sea.

Liu Hui was stunned for a moment, and immediately sensed it, it turned out that Xiao Hei had discovered a small and medium-sized copper mine when he passed through a hidden trench. Liu Hui was disappointed for a while, although the scale of this copper mine is not small, and it can be regarded as a super large mine in China, but the reserves of this copper mine alone are far from the construction needs of his "Starry Sky City".

However, after all, a new mineral deposit was discovered, Liu Hui was still happy in his heart, and after he noted the location of this copper mine, he was ready to let Xiao Hei continue to rush to his side. Who knew that when Xiao Hei began to swim, he suddenly found some traces of the existence of new deposits in the trench below this copper mine.

As soon as Liu Hui proved it, he immediately asked Xiao Hei to sink and see what kind of mineral deposit it was. So Xiao Hei sank quickly, and soon sensed the mineral resources below.

"Damn, this is a mountain of gold!" When Liu Hui saw the type of mineral deposit clearly, he couldn't help but be surprised. Because in Xiao Hei's induction, the mineral resources in this deep-sea trench are actually a large gold mine.

Liu Hui immediately calculated in his heart, although he didn't know what the content of this gold mine was, but with such a huge scale, this gold mine could at least mine more than 1,000 tons of gold.

Liu Hui was overjoyed, his Star Bank had been established for a long time, and this bank had been used as the internal bank of the Star Group, and it was rarely open to the public. However, after the Star Group moved to the "Star City", the Star Group was different from any organization in the world, and at this time, Liu Hui immediately thought of turning this Star Bank into an existence similar to the central banks of other countries, and issued his own Star Currency through this bank.

However, the issuance of currency requires gold reserves, and the amount of gold obtained by the Star Group through submarine salvage and secret acquisition is only 30 tons, which is far from meeting the needs of issuing currency. Liu Hui has been worried about this matter, but he didn't expect to find this large gold mine that can mine thousands of tons of gold, which makes him very happy.

After Liu Hui was happy for a while, he found that the connection between him and Xiao Hei had begun to become intermittent, and he immediately knew that he was too excited just now, immersed in the joy of discovering Jinshan, and actually forgot to call Xiao Hei over. Now that the farthest control distance has been reached, if you fly further, you will completely lose contact with Xiao Hei.

So Liu Hui started to call Xiao Hei, but he didn't receive any response from Xiao Hei, so he knew that the contact with Xiao Hei had been cut off. So Liu Hui prepared to make a big circle in the airspace ahead, and then flew back and called Xiao Hei again.

Just as Liu Hui was piloting the seaplane and preparing to circle around, two fighter jets suddenly swooped down from the sky above, and these two fighters flew past his seaplane.

Liu Hui was taken aback, and he recognized the appearance of the two fighters as American F-15 fighters. He suddenly thought that the airspace he was in was within the limits of Australia, so these two planes should belong to the Australian Air Force.

Although Liu Hui's seaplane was protected by a dynamic simulation formation, it could not hide from the F-15 fighter in front of him, and it must have been discovered by these two fighters. Liu Hui secretly shouted in his heart that he was unlucky, and he didn't know why his luck was so bad, and he was actually discovered by the Australian Air Force at close range.

Sure enough, while Liu Hui was still thinking nonsense, the two F-15 fighters flew back after a big circle, and they flew parallel to Liu Hui's seaplane, and Liu Hui suddenly found the logo of the US Air Force on the fuselage of the two fighters.

"My sister, how can it be a US military plane, isn't this Australian airspace?" Liu Hui was really taken aback this time. He has a deep hatred for the US military, and now that he has met a US military plane here, it is tantamount to a narrow road for the enemy, and I am afraid that there will be big trouble.

The two US F-15 fighter jets were side-by-side with Liu Hui's seaplane in the middle, and Liu Hui could even see what the American pilots looked like through the plane window. However, the windows of Liu Hui's plane were painted black, and the specific situation inside could not be seen from the outside.

Liu Hui was a little depressed in his heart, and in this form now, it was equivalent to his plane being hijacked by a US plane. As soon as his heart was crossed, he was about to forcibly turn, but the steering route ahead was always blocked by US planes, and as soon as they saw that Liu Hui was about to turn, they immediately pressed over and did not allow Liu Hui to change the course.

Liu Hui had no choice but to fly south between the two US fighter planes. And in this way, Liu Hui is getting farther and farther away from Xiao Hei's direction.

Suddenly, Liu Hui found that the pilot of the US fighter next to his plane was gesturing to him, meaning to talk to him. Liu Hui was stunned for a moment, his plane depicted an energy-absorbing formation, which can absorb all energy waves, and this US fighter must not be able to contact him with communications, so he made this gesture to him.

Liu Hui thought about it for a while, and turned off this energy-absorbing formation on the plane, but it was discovered by the US fighter jets anyway, and there was no point in continuing to drive this formation. Sure enough, after Liu Hui turned off this energy-absorbing formation, the communication lights on his plane began to flash non-stop, indicating that there was a call outside and wanted to come in.

Liu Hui thought for a while, and then connected the call. A voice immediately came from the communicator: "Seaplane ahead, you have entered the US military exercise area, please stay away from our exercise area under our protection, if you do not obey our command, we will shoot down your plane." ”
