"call……"

Carrying heavy equipment and facing the seemingly calm sea surface, Ye Chen was like a whale in the sea, took a breath, and then smoothly slid forward a few meters.

If he kept swimming like this, he would probably be faster than a canoe, but if he kept swimming like this for a few hours, he would be really tired.

Ye Chen has experienced such water training a lot before, and has swam in such sea water many times, even in the wind and waves, for a day and a night.

In the distance, Sequoia Island is an island larger than Guli Island, covering an area of ​​about 10 square kilometers.

There are several offshore oil wells in three directions, southeast, north and north, about a few nautical miles away from Sequoia Island. Fortunately, the production of the two ports in the south and north has been stopped, and there are no workers on it.

There is only the oil well on the east side, which seems to be still drilling oil, but it is seven or eight nautical miles apart, and Ye Chen can't see if there is anyone on it.

Ye Chen swam for about ten minutes and then dived to the west of Sequoia Island. There were several dangerous reefs here. Even if the sea surface outside the sea is calm now, the waves in this place are very surging.

Standing on a relatively calm reef, Ye Chen looked back at the cliff more than 20 meters high behind. If he wanted to go to the island, he had to climb up this cliff.

Fortunately, he brought enough equipment, dropped the swimming arms on his feet, changed into clean clothes, changed into nail shoes, and Ye Chen continued to set off on top.

With heavier equipment, he couldn't jump up all of a sudden. He could only climb up step by step.

Ten minutes later, Ye Chen climbed to the top of a cliff and came to the top of a mangrove forest.

From here it is a small uphill, with the mangroves about a few hundred meters away. Walk up and then you will reach the highest place on the island.

After climbing up for nearly a hundred meters with seventy or eighty kilograms of equipment on his back, Ye Chen finally arrived at the highest place on the island.

This is a small hill on the island, but the terrain is very steep. The angle reaches about 60 degrees, and after about 80 meters down, it is the residential area on the island. Ye Chen stands here to see the full view of the island.

The island is a long slope, from the highest place, tilting downward to the beach below, connecting with the sea water, and only a few flat lands.

The buildings on the island are mostly on these three flat grounds, one of which is located on the hillside.

There is about a thousand square meters of flat land here, and two one-story bungalows were built there. However, now it seems a bit dilapidated, and the exterior walls are gray-black. It may be because they have been disrepaired for too long.

The other two flat lands are not far from the two beaches. There are about a dozen houses built on it, all of which are low bungalows without any luxurious buildings.

The most luxurious one is the pier on the south side of this small island.

The pier has built three relatively long plank roads along the outside, all of which are made of cement, not of wooden boards, but of pure steel and cement.

There is also a row of bluestone houses in front of the pier, and the tallest one has four floors. There are other buildings used on the pier such as lighthouses, which is also the most luxurious place on the island.

Standing here, you can clearly see the situation of the three oil wells around you.

Although you can only see a contour, you can still feel the glory of this place. It is just a small island with three drilling wells around it, which shows the richness of oil resources in the surrounding area.

You should know that the cost of digging such a well is not average. If you make three at once, the investment will be quite large.

“Woo…”

At this time, a sound of steam from a steamer came from afar, and another large fishing boat passed by nearby. Ye Chen threw the equipment onto the mangrove forest and laid a small tent here.

Because the hill is steep and dense, even if it is outside, you can't see him setting up a camp here.

It's still during the day, so Ye Chen is not good at attacking, so he can only familiarize himself with the surrounding environment here and see how to act better at night.

However, judging from the current situation, Yan Chunxia's group of people should not have been on the island yet.

He took out the information and looked carefully. It showed that the uranium mine was just below the oil well on the east side, only five nautical miles away. It may be that the engineers of the Sneid family did not understand when inspecting the place.

I was only concerned about studying oil, but I didn't understand that there was a submarine uranium mine with amazing reserves of about five nautical miles to the north and only three nautical miles south of Sequoia Island.

Before coming, Ye Chen also consulted relevant experts that it is very difficult to mine subsea uranium ore.

If it is located below a kilometer of the deep sea, it is almost impossible to mine it. Generally, if it is only a few dozen meters deep, there is still a chance to mine it.

But there are no particularly advanced subsea equipment yet, only a few countries have mastered such technology, such equipment, and professional personnel.

If Yan Chunxia and the others want to mine uranium here, they will definitely make a big fuss, but due to the Sneid family, they may have to do it quietly and make a slow arrangement.

If the Sneed family knew that there was a huge uranium mine here, they would definitely repent. At that time, Yan Chunxia would be extremely passive by using their family's powerful forces in the area of ​​the Fan Empire.

So Ye Chen still doesn't know how this woman will deal with this matter and how to poach this treasure under the sea.

When he swam over, he probably felt the depth of the water in this area. It can be said that the deep area is only more than twenty meters, and the shallow area is only about ten meters. If it is a super large ship, it may not be able to enter such a sea area.

Such a sea environment is suitable for digging the uranium ore below, making it possible to mine uranium ore.

It is also the reason why the Sneid family dug three oil wells here at once. Otherwise, it would be unknown how long it would take to dig deep wells just.

Back then, there were soldiers guarding this area, but in just a few years, the oil here was almost beaten. Now there is very little money you can make every year, and you are even in a loss.

...

It was past six o'clock in the evening and the sea was pitch black.
