"Congratulations, Yuyin."

On the beach of Bailan Island, Ling Zhou said to Yu Yin with a smile.

"This is also due to your contribution, Xiaozhou. Without you, there would be no results today."

Yu Yin shook her head and said with a smile.

"Haha, you have made the greatest contribution."

Ling Zhou laughed, stood up and said with a smile: "We have been out for so long, it is time for us to go back. Let's go back today."

"good."

Yu Yin smiled and said, "The project has been shelved for a long time. It's time to go back. The further development of the Mineral Detection Aircraft should also continue. This way, we can further develop the mineral treasures in the sea in the future."

Ling Zhou nodded and said that the "Mineral Exploration Aircraft" still has great development potential.

According to Yu Yin, this "aircraft" can not only detect oil fields, but can also be developed into other "mineral detection" fields.

If this concept were to come to fruition, there would be no place for this treasure of the ocean to be hidden.

At present, Lingzhou has asked people to make a map of the world's oceans. Once mineral resources are discovered, they will be marked down for future acquisition and development.

Then he told Chen Yiru to pack his luggage and prepare to return.

An hour later, Ling Zhou and his companions boarded a yacht and headed for the Lanling Central District, accompanied by the head of the Bailan District and a group of senior executives.

…

After returning to the Lanling Central District, Lingzhou and his companions did not go directly back to the palace, but came to Mu Island.

Because the oil field in the waters of Mujima was erupting.

Yes, the oil field with a reserve of 2 billion tons in the waters of Mudao has produced oil.

This was a big surprise.

This incident not only means that Lanling now has a super-large oil field with a reserve of 2 billion tons, but also means that the accuracy of the "Mineral Exploration Aircraft" has been completely confirmed, and it can indeed find oil fields in the sea.

This is exciting.

Imagine that this "detection aircraft" can discover a mineral treasure with astonishing reserves by flying around the ocean. Isn't it exciting?

At this moment, he was even more impatiently looking forward to Yu Yin's further development of the "Mineral Detection Aircraft".

"The wooden island is just ahead."

On a yacht, Ling Zhou stood on the deck, looking into the distance and smiling.

“We don’t know the exact reserves.”

Yu Yin said with some anticipation.

Prior to this, it was only discovered that there was oil there, and that the reserves were considerable, but the reserves could not be confirmed, and it was only known that it was a large oil field.

Now that the oil has been sprayed, I feel half relieved.

Now let’s look at the specific exploration data.

"Don't worry, you have to believe in your products and believe in high technology."

Ling Zhou smiled.

Yu Yin smiled and nodded.

Soon, they arrived at the sea area 30 nautical miles away from Mu Island.

There is an oil platform there.

The sea surface about 30 meters around the oil platform is covered with a layer of oil, which is black, like ink and very sticky.

As the waves move, the oil layer will slowly drift and spread.

"The pollution is so severe, so many dead fish."

Yu Yin looked at the sea and sighed.

Ling Zhou also frowned. Oil polluting the ocean is certainly not a happy thing.

However, the polluted area is not large and can still be controlled. Workers are currently cleaning up the oil stains.

"Your Highness."

At this time, a small boat swam over, with several men in work clothes standing on it.

They looked at Ling Zhou and shouted respectfully.

"Um!"

Ling Zhou glanced at the oil stains on the sea around him and hummed in displeasure.

"Your Highness, I'm so sorry. I didn't expect the gusher to be so violent and I couldn't control it for a while."

On the boat, the leader, a blond, eagle-nosed European man, said apologetically.

He is the leader of this exploration team, named Abel Ladin, and is a senior expert in oil exploration and production. His family immigrated to Lanling a generation ago, and he grew up in Lanling. After graduation, he has been serving the Lanling royal family.

He had an apologetic look on his face, and his expression looked very ugly as he looked at the oil stains on the sea.

"Hurry up and clean it up, don't let it spread."

Ling Zhou shook his head and said.

This place is very close to Mu Island, only 30 nautical miles away.

Mu Island is a pristine forest area with many precious woods.

There is a natural fish pond around the island.

When oil spreads, it may adhere to the gills of fish and suffocate them.

The egg laying and hatching of water birds destroys the water permeability of their feathers and reduces the quality of aquatic products.

The formation of oil film can hinder the reoxygenation of water bodies, affect the growth of marine plankton, and destroy the ecological balance of the ocean. In addition, it also destroys the seaside scenery and affects the aesthetic value of the seaside.

Mu Island is a pristine ecological tourist island that welcomes countless tourists from all over the world every year. If it is polluted by oil, it would be a very bad thing.

In short, during oil extraction, it is strictly forbidden for a drop of oil to fall into the sea.

With pollution so severe nowadays, it would be strange if he could be happy.

"Don't worry, Your Highness. We will clean it up as soon as possible."

Abel nodded.

"Well, let's go up and take a look."

Ling Zhou nodded and said.

Abel responded and went onto the platform with Lingzhou and the others.

This is a simple platform.

When the official oil production begins, the formal mining platform will be rebuilt.

The formal platform is much larger, with a height of 500 meters and a weight of more than 600,000 tons.

Moreover, by that time, it will not be just one platform that will be used, but a combination of multiple platforms that will cover the entire sea surface.

This is very expensive!

But there is no way, oil extraction is a money-burning job.

Under the guidance of Abel, Ling Zhou and others took a brief tour of the platform facilities.

“Can we explore the specific reserves?”

Lingzhou asked Abel.

"Your Highness, the specific reserves are being surveyed, and the specific data will be released tomorrow."

Abel said.

Ling Zhou nodded.

Afterwards, they stayed on the platform for a while, asked some questions, and then Ling Zhou took Yu Yin, Chen Yiru and others away from the platform.

…

After leaving the oil extraction platform, Lingzhou and his party returned to the main island of Lanling, which is now the capital of Lanling.

Instead of going to Yintan Villa, he went straight back to Lanling Palace.

After returning to the palace, Ling Zhou smiled at Yu Yin and said, "Yu Yin, go and have some rest first, and then come with me to have dinner with my parents and sister in the evening."

"Ah! Xiaozhou, this is not good."

Yu Yin said in surprise.

In this world, there are only a few people, except Ling Zhou and Ling Lanxin, who are qualified to dine at the same table with Lord Lan Ling and Queen Lan Ling.

"Haha! Yu Yin, you are now a great contributor to our Lan Ling, there is nothing wrong with you."

Ling Zhou laughed and said.

When he said this, even Chen Yiru, who was standing next to him, nodded in agreement.
