When Yang Jing and his companions left San Fernando, they left Carl Morris, Bruno and two brothers here to make preparations.
The four of them completed the preparation work quite well, at least Yang Jing was very satisfied. In just less than two days, they rented a two-story apartment building with a single door near the Catholic church, and also quietly purchased some tools, including underground excavation tools and the most important positioning tools.
Underground horizontal excavation has never been an easy job. In the past, it could only be done manually. Now, with the continuous development of technology, there are more and more small-scale underground horizontal excavation tools that can be operated by one person, so the underground horizontal excavation work is actually becoming simpler.
But no matter how simple it is, this underground positioning tool is absolutely indispensable. If there is no accurate positioning when digging horizontally underground, the most direct consequence is that the final excavation location may deviate from the predetermined coordinate location, and this possibility is very high. Therefore, this underground positioning tool is very important.
In the past, when there were no such sophisticated instruments, horizontal excavation work underground or in mountains had to rely on experience. Workers who were not experienced dared not and could not accurately locate the excavation direction.
But now it is much simpler. A small laser locator can solve this problem.
The two-story apartment building that Morris and his team rented was located northwest of the church, more than 30 meters away from the church in a straight line. However, because there was another family in between, for the sake of safety, Yang Jing and his team could only dig 20 meters to the east from the apartment building, and then about 40 meters to the south, before they could reach the predetermined coordinate location.
In the past, digging a distance of sixty meters underground was definitely not an easy job, but it doesn’t matter now. With those small machines, the most difficult excavation work has become the easiest job.
This Catholic church is located at the highest point within a one-kilometer radius. Although it is only one kilometer away from the beach, the altitude here is about thirty or forty meters higher than the beach.
There is no other reason. The reason why the Spaniards chose to establish a settlement here was because there was a small hill facing the sea. Whether from the perspective of living or military, building a settlement on this small hill was undoubtedly the best choice.
In fact, it was not just the Spaniards, but also the French, British and even Germans who made this choice when establishing their first settlement in overseas colonies.
The entire San Fernando developed around this settlement established by the Spaniards. Although the city has grown very large in modern times, this small area in the core area is still the highest area around it.
Therefore, when digging an underground passage here, there is no need to worry about digging out a large amount of groundwater.
Looking at the tools in the basement of this small building, Yang Jing was really satisfied.
"Karl, John, you guys have worked hard."
"It's not hard, boss. You give us a lot of money, so it's easy for us to get things done. As we say in Chinese, to do business in a place like this, as long as you have money, you are the boss!" Morris said with a smile, and the last "boss" was still spoken in broken Chinese.
Several people laughed.
Yang Jing asked, "There are no clues left when renting this small building, right?"
Bruno nodded and said, "Don't worry, boss. I used another identity to find a local gangster, gave him some money, and asked him to find another person. In the end, I used this person's identity to find an intermediary. There are several layers in between. With the efficiency of the government here, they can't find us."
Hearing Bruno's words, Yang Jing nodded in relief. Among these people, apart from Chris, Bruno was the most reliable. Since he dared to guarantee that everything was fine, then it must be fine. With the ability of these elites to do things, it would be a joke if they left any tails.
"Well, since there are no problems, let's start digging as soon as possible! Come on, let's move aside first. I'll determine the direction. Once we determine the direction, we'll start digging! Don't waste time."
After several people retreated, Yang Jing activated his Sky Eye skill, and could clearly see a ball of precious light buried about seven meters deep underground, about thirty meters away to the southeast.
According to the position where the precious light was emitted, Yang Jing slightly shifted the angle by about forty-five degrees and placed the small laser locator facing due east. After activating the device, a blue-green laser beam suddenly shot out.
"Start digging diagonally downward in this direction. Set the depth to seven meters. Dig twenty meters in this direction, and then I will locate it again."
"OK, boss, don't worry, we are very good at digging this kind of hole. Not to mention that we now have this kind of small machine, even if we didn't have machinery, we can dig such a hole with the help of an engineer shovel." Kevin Martin said with a smile.
He was not saying this nonsense. As an elite retired special forces soldier, they were definitely familiar with digging holes. In their training, digging holes was an absolutely essential part of their training. After rigorous training, they could use any tools to dig a hole to hide in in the shortest time.
Yang Jing looked at Kevin Martin with a smile, "Kevin, why don't you stop using mechanical digging? You are so good at using an engineer shovel, why don't you use an engineer shovel to dig."
