Chapter 579 Diving

Yang Jing said this a bit. Even if Guo Dabao has always supported him unconditionally, Guo Dabao is still in a little embarrassed today.

However, when he saw Yang Jing simply turned around and walked out of the room, Guo Dabao could only bite his back teeth and said: "The inspection work is temporarily suspended, and we will do our best to obtain the survey and mining rights of these two areas, and we must pay attention to confidentiality."

Facts have proved that the current Papua New Guinea government is really rushing to China, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as flattering. When Guo Dabao's team started operating this matter in Port Moresby, it took only three days to complete the survey and mining rights of these two areas. Of course, being able to complete these procedures so quickly is also closely related to the several promises of Rongbao Mining.

Rongbao Mining promises that as long as the mining veins can be found in the above two areas, Rongbao Mining will invest no less than 1.5 billion US dollars in advance!

If this number was placed in Australia and the United States, it might not be a very conspicuous number. After all, the early investment in mining is very amazing. But in countries like Papua New Guinea, the investment of $1.5 billion accounts for more than 7% of Papua New Guinea's annual GDP!

The GDP revenue of Papua New Year's entire year is only more than US$20 billion!

Their early investment reached 1.5 billion US dollars, so what about the next investment?

Not to mention that Rongbao Mining also promises to build a complete land transportation system locally if necessary.

What is this concept? It’s very simple. As long as I get the survey rights and mining rights of the plot I see and find the mine veins suitable for mining there, then there will be no problem with the local highways!

If the employment problem is added, Rongbao Mining became the God of Wealth in the top executives of Papua New Guinea almost overnight.

Therefore, when Rongbao Mining made these promises, the Papua New Guild government was like China in the early stages of reform and opening up. For such large-scale investment projects, it was a green light, and no one dared to stumbling on this project.

At this time, the other three domestic mining companies that won the first batch of mining companies entering Papua New Guinea were just sending vanguard troops to prepare for the establishment of branches.

There are naturally professionals to do the matter of handling survey rights and mining rights. He can't do it even if you ask Yang Jing to do such things. When Yang Jing learned from Guo Dabao that the survey rights and mining rights had been processed, he was playing diving in the waters near Manus Island, the main island of the Admeralti Islands in the Bismarck Sea.

As the main island of the Admelarti Islands, although it is not small in size, the island is full of hills one or two hundred meters high, and there is no flat place to find.

Yang Jing has been used to seeing mountains and hills these days, and has long been so annoyed by this landform. In addition, the sea water around Manus Island is very good, so he simply started diving.

There are many coral reefs around Manus Island, especially in the waters near the Lorengao area, which is definitely a diving place. If it weren't for being lonely overseas and the transportation was very inconvenient, it would have long been a diving place no less than the Great Barrier Reef.

Yang Jing was able to come here because Captain Howard introduced him.

Although Captain Howard is a white man, he is an absolute Papua New Guinea. He was born and raised from Rabaul. If Rabaul had not been destroyed by a volcano, he would have to go to Lai City to make another way to make a living. Maybe he would still be in Rabaul now.

Howard met Fordris in Lai City and became the captain of the Australian Style Captain, thanks to his proficiency in navigation. He knew very well about the waters near Papua New Guinea and naturally knew about the diving holy place of Manus Island. Because the boss still had to celebrate Christmas at home, most of Yang Jing's subordinates were foreigners. Now Christmas is approaching, so Yang Jing simply took a group of subordinates to Manus Island to celebrate Christmas on the Australian Style Captain.

As a native Chinese, Yang Jing has no feelings about the festivals abroad. Except for the festival on February 14, he must spend it with the princess, other festivals, including the Christmas that Westerners value the most, he really has no feelings.

Look, Yang Jing gave Chris and the others a holiday these two days, allowing them to have a happy Christmas. He drove an open sports boat and drove to the sea about twenty kilometers high from Loren alone, and went diving alone.

Because of the skills of feeding back, the decompression disease that others fear is as scared as a tiger is not a big deal for Yang Jing. This was confirmed when he was diving deeper than 100 meters below the surface of Xiaolangdi Reservoir when he was looking for the imperial seal some time ago.

As long as Yang Jing is willing, not to mention the depth of 100 meters, he can even dive into deeper waters without worrying about relieving pressure disease. It is nothing more than consuming more protective energy.

It is precisely for this reason that Yang Jing doesn't like to have others follow him when diving, otherwise there is really no way to explain that he can float up quickly without worrying about decompression disease. Therefore, when Yang Jing dived these two days, he was always alone.

Although he can dive deeper waters, Yang Jing rarely does that. The free diving he now plays is wearing a mask and a compressed air bottle, wearing a pair of flippers on his feet, and a diving knife on his waist to protect himself, and bringing nothing else.

If the diving is too deep, lighting equipment will be needed, so Yang Jing has only been diving in the depths of about 30 or 40 meters in the past two days.

The sea area here is not polluted at all, it is very clean. At least the place where Yang Jing has been, the Arctic waters can be compared with here. But the sea water in the Arctic waters can freeze people into popsicles. Where is it comfortable to be here?

Because it is a tropical sea area, there are many kinds of fish living here, including great white sharks and not many killer whales. Yang Jing has seen them several times. However, because these large carnivorous fish are full and drink enough, they are not interested in "large fish" like Yang Jing, so they do not cause trouble for Yang Jing. Yang Jing even approached a killer whale and played with that guy for a while.

Yang Jing, who has limited-level time and space shuttle skills, even if those great white sharks or killer whales want to eat him, he is not afraid. At worst, one skill can shuttle away, and no fish can catch Yang Jing.

Scuba diving in the waters near Lorengao, you can often see large sinking ships. These ships are Japanese warships or Allied warships that sunk during World War II. In comparison, there are more Japanese warships that sink.

During World War II, Japan built many military bases in the southwestern Pacific. Lorengou, located on Manus Island, was naturally not spared by Japan because of its important geographical location. During World War II, Japan built a large number of military bases and military airports near Lorengou, providing cover for the Rabaul base from the side.

Later, the US-Australian coalition forces began to counterattack against Japan under the leadership of MacArthur. However, the US-Australian coalition forces encountered a head of shame in Rabaul, and eventually forced MacArthur to adopt the "leapfrog tactic" to jump over Rabaul and instead attack other Japanese bases that could threaten the rear of the US-Australian coalition.

Lorengou is the first Japanese base to attack by the US and Australian coalition forces after skipping Rabaul.

Because the US-Australia coalition has absolute air supremacy, although they were in a state of disgrace when they fought Rabaul, they successfully drove all the Japanese naval forces stationed in Rabaul's waters out of the Solomon Sea. The Japanese navy's cruisers, destroyers and light aircraft carriers had to be transferred from Rabaul to Lorengou.

However, the "frog jumping tactic" of the US-Australia coalition was very fast. Not long after the Japanese Navy arrived at Lorengao, they were hit by the air strikes of the US-Australia coalition. After dropping several destroyers and even cruisers, the Japanese Navy fled again and retreated towards the Philippines.

Without the support of warship firepower, Lorengo was immediately exposed to the firepower of the US-Australia coalition forces. Compared with Rabaul, Lorengo was not as good as in any aspect, so the US-Australia coalition forces took a few days to easily solve Lorengo.

The loss of Lorengao also completely isolated Rabaul. Even though there were still 150,000 Japanese soldiers there, it had completely become useless. Until Japan was defeated in World War II, General Imamura, the leader of Rabaul's Japanese army, surrendered.

So, although the seas near Lorengao are very beautiful, all the warships that sink below sea level are talking about the cruelty of the war back then.

It was as if Yang Jing had discovered a light cruiser with a length of more than 150 meters in a shallow water area less than five kilometers away from the Lorengao Port. However, the deck of this cruiser had been blown up beyond recognition, and there were several shocking holes on the side, and even the hull number and name were blown away, which made Yang Jin unable to figure out whether this light cruiser belonged to the Japanese or the US-Australia coalition.

Anyway, this light patrol was the worst bombed warship Yang Jing had ever seen. Judging from the miserable appearance of this warship, this light patrol was obviously first bombed by the Air Force's "deck washing" and then hit by at least four heavy torpedoes, which was finally knocked into a ghost-like sunk.

Although he didn't know the name of this light patrol, Yang Jing estimated that the ship had a great possibility that it was a Japanese warship. After all, almost all the above decks of the ship had been "washed" and even the strong bridge was missing. In that era, it was estimated that only the US-Australia coalition forces had such powerful air power.

Although the light patrol only sank in a sea area less than fifty meters away from the sea level, Yang Jing had no intention of going down to take a look.

What is there to search for in warships? There are corpses and ammunition inside.
