Chapter 564 Crazy Traffic
"Okay, brother, I sincerely admire your courage!" Seeing that Guo Xiaoxiang was not very interested, Yang Jing could only make jokes.
Guo Xiaoxiang waved his hand lazily, "Forget it, let's not talk about it, go to bed. After waking up after a long sleep, he will be a hero again when he wakes up tomorrow morning. Oh, by the way, Lao Yang, where are your bodyguards? If you go there, it's better to bring your bodyguards with you."
"Oh..." Yang Jing was stunned for a moment, "They will not arrive tomorrow, so I will wait until they arrive before leaving there."
"Brother, I advise you to do this better. Without bodyguard protection, even if my father asks you to go, you'd better not act rashly. OK, don't rush it. It's almost two o'clock, go to bed."
Listening to Guo Xiaoxiang's snoring in a deep sleep, Yang Jing couldn't fall asleep.
The conversation in the middle of the night made Yang Jing feel very moved by the fat brother who only knew how to eat, drink and have fun back then, now he is much more mature.
I guess he had never told his father Guo Dabao what he said to meet cannibals tonight and to walk in the rain forest. Guo Xiaoxiang himself silently resisted these things.
Yang Jing crossed his hands and placed them behind his head, looked at the ceiling with his eyes, and countless thoughts passed through his mind.
Even though he had already prepared himself before coming, he realized that he had underestimated the danger of this island after hearing Guo Xiaoxiang's words tonight.
This world's second largest island is not only rich in resources, but also has extremely high dangers. It can be said to be an island where risks and opportunities coexist.
As a large island with very active geological activities, the large amount of geological activities has also brought many high-quality and large mineral resources to the island.
Irian Island is located in the volcanic seismic zone of the Pacific Ocean, and the intersection of the stable southern edge of the Indo-Ao plate and the northern edge of the Pacific Ocean plate, forming a unique geological structure and rich mineral resources. In the past hundreds of millions of years, due to the collision between the Indo-Ao plate moving north and the Pacific plate moving west, Irian Island has undergone uplift and extrusion deformation, forming a rich mineral resource.
Guo Xiaoxiang went out for an inspection this time, but it was not without results. As he said, no matter the truth or lies, the mineral resources here are really rich. Especially the mineral resources survey conducted by the US Geological Survey for the Papua New Guinea government by Guo Xiaoxiang. If it were not for personal observation, Yang Jing would really not believe that Papua New Guinea, which occupied half of Irian Island, would have such rich mineral resources.
You should know that Papua New Guinea only accounts for half of Irian Island, but on this half of the islands, the proven mineral resources include metal minerals such as gold, copper, nickel, cobalt, silver, aluminum, bauxite, and energy minerals such as oil and natural gas. Among them, gold reserves are 1,300 tons, copper ore reserves are 944 million tons, copper and gold symbiosis reserves are about 400 million tons, crude oil reserves are 576 million barrels, and natural gas reserves are 6.25 trillion cubic feet.
This is only a land area of more than 300,000 square kilometers. In China, this area is even less than that of Nanyun Province, but the mineral resources contained in it are really amazing.
In fact, it is not only the half of the island occupied by Papua New Guinea, but also the western half occupied by Indonesia, which is also rich in minerals. Not to mention anything else, the Grasberg copper and gold mine alone is known as the world's largest gold mine and the third largest copper mine.
The Grasberg copper and gold mine is located in an alpine area just seven kilometers west of the highest peak in Oceania. The edge of the copper and gold mine is close to 4 kilometers above sea level, and huge pits with a diameter of more than one kilometer can be seen in space. The middle-aged snow-covered Chaya peak next to it is adjacent to this huge pit, forming an extremely spectacular scene.
The Glasberg copper and gold mine is located in the western half of the Central Mountains, and in the eastern half of the Central Mountains, the Male Mountains, which is the Enga Province of Papua New Guinea, also has gold mines with reserves of more than 400 tons like Porgela.
It can be said that although the central mountain system is dangerous, while nature forms such a dangerous environment, it also leaves huge wealth to the mountain system, that is, a large number of precious metals enriched mineral veins.
In fact, in Papua New Guinea, more than 60,000 families now rely on gold hunting from the Male Mountains to make a living. It is worth mentioning that this gold hunting is not employed by a mining company, but the scattered branches of these families make gold hunting privately in various locations in the Male Mountains. This is enough to prove how rich precious metals this mountain contains.
However, the current government of Papua New Guinea is not strong enough to conduct detailed surveys of this mountain system with rich mineral veins, and it is even more impossible to reasonably mine the Male Mountains.
The water resources in Papua New Guinea are now very polluted, because these private gold diggers have adopted extremely poor gold digging technology - precious metal smelting is quite serious about water resources.
Now, it is estimated that the Papua New Guinea government has also realized the seriousness of the private possession of national resources, so it has begun to issue many policies that are conducive to foreign funds for mineral development, including the reduction of tax rates and the reduction of tariffs on mineral resources.
It’s like China is preparing to develop minerals in Papua New Guinea this time, and the vanguard is these four private mining companies.
In fact, Yang Jing knew very well that these four private mining companies were behind the top leaders of China. These four private mining companies were just exploring the way. Once they felt that Papua New Guinea really had investment value, the subsequent big head would immediately enter Papua New Guinea.
No matter how the upper level considers it, now that I am the major shareholder of Rongbao Mining, I have to be responsible for this rare opportunity.
What if we could find a world-class precious metal mine like the Glasberg copper and gold mine here?
However, Yang Jing was not sure. It is possible to find treasures in the sky eye skill. After all, the treasures contain huge amounts of treasure energy. As long as they are not buried too deeply, they can generally be discovered. However, if the sky eye is used to find the ore veins, Yang Jing would be unsure. After all, he had never used the sky eye skill to do such things before.
"Holy Ring, can you use the Heavenly Eye skill to find precious metal ore veins containing natural treasure energy?" After thinking about it, Yang Jing still consulted the Holy Ring.
"If the owner is willing to spend double the energy, then the Tianyan skill can allow the owner to see the precious metal ore veins under certain conditions. This condition is actually very simple, that is, the ore veins the owner is looking for must have a high enough grade, otherwise even if the owner increases the energy consumption, you will not be able to find the ore veins."
"So what is the minimum limit for this level of Holy Ring? Can you tell me now?"
"Sorry, Master, I have never done such a job before, so I don't have any exact information here. However, once the master uses the Heavenly Eye skill, as long as it meets the conditions, the Heavenly Eye skill will definitely be able to see it."
"Okay, just pretend you didn't say anything!" Yang Jing sighed helplessly. It is estimated that the original owner of the Holy Ring has never used the Holy Ring to do mineral surveys. After all, the Holy Ring is used to appraise treasures, which one can compare with people with such a great holy Ring, who would have no time to go to the deep mountains and forests to find mineral veins?
That is why I do this with such a hard work...
However, the answer given by the Holy Ring, which is not an answer, is not in vain. Yang Jing is also very clear about the meaning of the Holy Ring. In addition, this investigation has only initially determined a general survey range. Whether you can find high-grade enriched mineral veins, it is still a matter of luck.
After thinking about it, Yang Jing fell asleep until dawn was almost dawn.
At around 10 o'clock in the morning, Yang Jing was woken up by Guo Xiaoxiang.
"What's wrong? I can't sleep after changing places? How old are you, I still love the bed! Look at my brother who is exercising now, and he falls asleep wherever he goes. He has never been able to sleep..."
Looking at Guo Xiaoxiang's contempt expression, Yang Jing gave this guy a straight middle finger, "Brother is thinking about your sister-in-law, okay? There are people hanging at home, so I can't sleep here. It's not like someone, it's so old that I can't even get a girlfriend..."
Faced with such a sharp counterattack, the proud Guo Xiaoxiang suddenly turned into a rabbit and disappeared in a flash.
During lunch, Guo Xiaoxiang still had a look of 10,086 hit and that resentful and indescribable look. Yang Jing thought that his joke had gone too far.
Chris and his group arrived in Port Moresby in the afternoon. After the Arctic treasure hunt ended, they had been resting at home for more than 20 days. Even though Christmas is approaching, the boss is going to go to the terrifying primitive tropical rainforest of Irian Island to inspect, so they gathered together to register without hesitation. They took a day to come from the United States thousands of miles away to Papua New Guinea.
The arrival of Chris and others made the inspection team much larger, but the addition of these elites also increased the safety of the inspection team by N levels.
After Chris and the others arrived, the inspection team did not set off immediately because Chris and the others still needed to transport a batch of guys they could use from Australia. The person handling this was Carl Morris, who had some familiar relationships in Cairns, the Australian city opposite the Great Coral Sea. The weapons and equipment needed by the entire bodyguard team needed to be smuggled from there.
Although the weapons control in Papua New Guinea is relatively strict, there is also a black market there. However, Chris and others look down on the old weapons and equipment, so they smuggled the weapons and equipment they need from Australia directly.
After waiting for two days, Chris and his guys arrived safely at Port Moresby. A total of eighteen people took a private plane rented to Mount Hagen.
When it comes to the transportation of PNG, it is full of tears. Port Moresby, as the capital of PNG, does not even have a highway. The most disgusting thing is that because of the existence of the central mountain system, the entire PNG New Zealand was divided into east and west halves, and there is no connection between these two halves except air or sea transportation.
Therefore, if you want to reach Mount Hagen more than 500 kilometers away from Port Moresby, you either take a boat to reach Ley City, and then drive from Ley City to Mount Hagen, or you can fly directly to Mount Hagen. Apart from these two methods, there is no other way.
Because Chris and the others needed to carry some sensitive weapons and equipment, Yang Jing simply paid for a Boeing BBJ3 private business plane to fly directly to Mount Hagen.
