74_74857Wei Jing is still the first time to take a helicopter, she thought that Li Mai would choose a yacht to go to sea, after all, the company is free of three yachts, one of which is a high-speed yacht. But it is clear that Li Mai prefers a faster helicopter.

Instead of flying directly to Salo Island, Army 3 hovered over the apron on the rooftop of Summit Plaza. Wei Jing was wondering, and Li Mai explained with a smile: "Lifting the ATV, I don't think you can measure the entire island on foot. ”

Wei Jing smiled awkwardly and said, "I should be able to, but it may be too late in time." ”

There are staff waiting early on the tarmac, and a two-seater ATV is ready. The helicopter dropped the rope, the crew quickly hooked up to the ATV, and soon the signal was ready was given.

In fact, the MZ-20 heavy helicopter can use a wide cabin to carry ATVs, and there is no problem with accommodating four or five vehicles, but the Army No. 3 has been transformed into a luxury aviation cabin, so naturally there is no room to accommodate ATVs.

If another helicopter is used, Li Mai feels that it is too wasteful, after all, judging by the take-off weight of the MZ-20, it is no problem to hoist a towed artillery, let alone an ATV.

Army No. 3 climbed again, hoisted an ATV, and sped away to Sarah Island, more than a hundred kilometers away.

In the luxury cabin on the plane, it is extremely luxurious, but there are only Li Mai and Wei Jing. When the company is start-up, manpower is a drawback, and Li Mai is a person who would rather be lacking than excessive. Therefore, he didn't bring an entourage with him on this trip, and even Song Jiangao was sent to do other things.

In Li Mai's view, Wei Jing is a professional, and she has a deep understanding of this aspect, and the two of them are enough to complete the preliminary investigation work. After all, it's just a matter of taking a look, knowing what to expect, and preparing for the auction, not a meticulous inspection.

For the MZ-20 heavy helicopter, which has a speed of almost 300 kilometers per hour, it flew over in more than half an hour at a distance of more than 100 kilometers.

The helicopter first circled over Salo Island, and Li Maitong Guò observed the Sharo Island below from the cabin window, and Wei Jing also watched carefully.

But see, it is an island similar to a coin with a missing mouth, the sea water is light blue, very beautiful, the mouth faces west and backs to east, forming a small area of sand, and the sea surface is calm. The vegetation on the islands is not very large, from the shore to the central location, the vegetation ranges from sparse to dense, mostly unknown wild trees and tropical bushes.

The south side of the island should be a small plateau with a dilapidated lighthouse on it.

Wei Jing pointed to the lighthouse and said, "According to the records, the lighthouse is a nautical landmark lamp built by the Kuomintang government during the Republic of China. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, it was left unattended, and it was not updated until the most recent census. ”

Nodding slowly, Li Mai said, "Salo Island has no military significance, there are more important islands in front of it, and behind it is the South China Sea Island, where Steel City is located. However, from the perspective of tourism development, it is the most advantageous uninhabited island in the coastal waters of Nangang. ”

"That's right. With such a large area, we can develop a high-end island resort. Mr. Li, you look at the small bay, judging from the color of the seawater, the sea water is very shallow, and the trend is gentle, after a certain correction of the beach, it can be put into use directly. Wei Jing pointed to the gap below.

The helicopter circled around the island twice, and the captain's voice came through the in-flight channel: "Chief, there are three areas where you can land, the clearing under the lighthouse, the clearing in the central woods, and the beach. ”

Li Mai said: "Landing on the beach, you are there to standby." ”

"Understood!"

In fact, the MZ-20 helicopter can land on the surface of the sea if necessary, because it has a semi-sealed cabin.

An experienced captain from the HNA unit steered the helicopter to slowly descend to the ground, first landing the ATV and releasing the ropes, and then moving forward and slowly landing on the soft sand. The landing gear tires sank directly into the sand, then the landing gear brackets, all the way to the bottom of the fuselage touching the sand.

There are no problems with these, the MZ-20 can rise from the ground casually,

Because of the strong wind, the beach was kicked up with dust. Only when the rotors slowly stopped, did the mechanic open the hatch and lower the boarding ladder, helping Li Mai and Wei Jing to get off the plane.

After getting off the plane, Li Mai helped Wei Jing, Wei Jing lowered her head a little embarrassed, but Li Mai had no unusual expression.

"You're here to standby. Li Mai gestured to the mechanic.

"Yes!"

With that, Li Mai put on his bag and walked towards the ATV, and Wei Jing hurriedly followed. The ATV is different from the ordinary one-person ATV, not even a simple ATV, but more like a small assault vehicle, except that it is a two-seater with a back pocket with a protective net for placing belongings.

Taking out the tablet, Li Mai threw the backpack into his back pocket, sat in the driver's seat, and started the car. Wei Jing hurriedly threw her backpack into it and sat in the co-pilot.

After a few operations, Li Mai handed the tablet to Wei Jing and said, "The terminal of the Beidou satellite system, you are responsible for checking the terrain." ”

"Good. Wei Jing agreed, lowered her head and studied.

Li Maisong stepped on the accelerator with the handbrake in gear, and the ATV made a low noise and drove out of the beach.

At this time, it was only nine o'clock, the sun was still not high in the east, the weather was very good, the light clouds, the clear blue sky, and the sea breeze blowing from time to time were very refreshing. The woods on the island are filled with unknown birds chirping, as well as unknown insects and sounds.

There are no roads at all on the island, and weeds are growing everywhere. The ATV ran over it, leaving two deep marks. From time to time, mountain rats or snakes stumble away in the weeds like frightened, and Wei Jing's heart trembles.

Li Mai's mind is on the environment of this island. There is so much green vegetation and animals that live on it, which at least says one thing - there is a fresh water source on the island.

The most important thing about an island for any purpose, whether it is for military or civilian use, is fresh water at all times. Even, to evaluate the value of an island, it depends on whether there is a zài fresh water source on the island.

Undoubtedly, this is the biggest piece of good news.

Li Mai was about to speak, Wei Jing glanced at the surrounding environment and the mountain rats that had jumped a few times in front of her and disappeared into the weeds, stabilized her mind, and said, "Eighty percent of the island has fresh water. ”

As she spoke, she looked at Li Mai and continued, "There is no record of whether there is fresh water on Salo Island in the data, and the relevant departments have not surveyed here. Mr. Li, if we take this place, I am afraid that we will be the first people to fully understand this island. ”

After a pause, she said, "The value of an island depends largely on whether there is a source of fresh water on the island. From a financial point of view, this will save us a lot of money on transporting fresh water from land. ”

Li Mai nodded appreciatively, this Wei Jing's expertise is definitely not a joke, and Li Mai can see that she is a little afraid of those furry little animals, but she can still analyze calmly, which shows that this woman's psychological essence is very good.

People who have been deputy directors of prefecture-level cities for five years have bad psychological qualities, which is called a strange thing.

"The water needs to be tested further, and if it is natural and meets the drinking standards, it is even better. Li Mai said.

Wei Jing smiled and said, "Mr. Li, our tourism bureau has made calculations in this regard before. Given the distance and size of the island, if a resort were to be built here, it would account for one-third of the total expenditure on fresh water. ”

Smiling, Li Mai said, "I understand what you mean, my requirements are too high, haha." You're right, as long as there is fresh water, it's a great thing. ”

He hit the steering wheel a few times and circled around the island, basically making a rut around the island. Hung up the low gear, Li Mai drove directly up the small high ground and drove towards the lighthouse.

Li Mai glanced back at the back and looked at the place where the wheels had pressed. At this moment, Wei Jing raised her eyes and glanced at the lighthouse, and suddenly saw a shadow flashing at the base of the lighthouse.

"Ahh

Li Mai hurriedly turned his head to look over, and at the same time stepped on the brake, "What's wrong?"

Wei Jing pointed to the lighthouse at the highest point of the high ground in front of her, and said very uncertainly, "There, there, there seems to be someone." ”

"Huh?" Li Mai suddenly became vigilant, raised his eyes, and observed for a long time, but found nothing, "I didn't see any traces of people." ”

Wei Jing also hesitated, and looked at it a few times seriously, "I seem to have seen a shadow flash just now, but ...... Maybe I'm dazzled, I'm a little bit slightly short-sighted. ”

Li Mai listened attentively for a while, but there was no other sound except the sound of the waves.

"Maybe you're dazzled. Li Mai smiled, started the car and drove to the flat ground under the small slope, turning off the engine.

After getting out of the car, Li Mai glanced around. The place where he stood was the second small platform of the earth, and the lighthouse occupied the tallest, slightly larger platform. The whole height is slowly descending towards the center of the island, and on the other side facing the sea, there is a relatively steep cliff, which Li Mai has carefully observed from the helicopter.

Wei Jing still glanced at the lighthouse with some fear, and subconsciously approached Li Mai. I don't know how many years the lighthouse has passed, and it is so dilapidated that it is not in shape. If it hadn't been made of rock, I'm afraid it would have collapsed long ago. The tower was covered with moss and unknown plants, and peeped out of the cracks.

Directly opposite her was a rusty iron gate, and a small staircase made of rock led down to make it a passage to the lighthouse.

For some reason, Wei Jing always thought that this lighthouse was a little strange in color but overgrown with weeds. It stands to reason that the wind on the surface of the sea is very salty, and there should not be so many green plants growing.

Suddenly, a thought flashed through Wei Jing's mind.......
