Chapter 960: Tierra Del Fuego
"Well, it's already this time..." After glancing vaguely at the watch on the bedside, Jiang Hai patted his head and sat up from the bed. He looked at the two red girls beside him, one on the left and one on the right. Curling up on the bed, Jiang Hai couldn't help but pat their butts with his big hands. They were really good at it last night.
I have to admit that children's physical strength is really good. They say that they are like wolves at thirty and like tigers at forty. That's because when they are teenagers, children in China are not yet enlightened. When they are in their twenties, they will have some. Shyness, over thirty years old, no longer shy, the demand has skyrocketed, and these children here have no shyness process.
Although they are no longer old people who do these things, they are curious about what kind of postures and what kind of processes. They want to experience it. In addition, Jiang Hai said that she doesn’t need to worry about her wallet, so they played last night. Very crazy.
In the mouth, in front, behind, in the hands, and even the two hugged each other tightly, Jiang Hai took advantage of the two people's indescribable appearance and came out once. It can be said that they have played any kind of gameplay, Jiang Hai Hai's physical fitness has fallen into a deep sleep, let alone them? So now even if Jiang Hai is filming them, they have no intention of waking up.
Shaking his head, Jiang Hai went to take a shower, put down enough knives, put on his clothes and left.
When he left the room, the surrounding environment was already very quiet. He took the elevator to the first floor and found that the first floor had long been deserted. Only some workers were left there to clean up. Jiang Hai didn't care and went straight to the parking lot.
When I came over, I found that Connerson Peters had been waiting here for a long time.
Connerson is indeed not that interested in women, but he is not a junior brother who doesn't understand anything.
So he also stayed here last night, but he got up earlier. When he saw Jiang Hai coming out, he also stood up and followed Jiang Hai. Jiang Hai took a look and saw that no one else was there. When I came out, I was not in a hurry. I went to a nearby store to have breakfast. While I was eating, Bell Lester, Louis Cazard and others also came out one after another.
It is said that men are the top four. From Jiang Hai's perspective, Louis Cazard was a pretty bad guy. Even if he went to learn Chinese specifically for himself, he was still unhappy with him. But at this time, it was... There have been some changes.
After all, they had played together and they were considered buddies, so Jiang Hai specially treated him to breakfast this morning.
As for the money for the drinks last night, he was the one who naturally paid for it. As for the money that everyone had to pay, they naturally paid for themselves.
This thing is very particular. No matter how good a friend is, he would not invite this thing. Of course, I don’t know who said it. Jiang Hai believed it anyway. As for why, Jiang Hai really didn’t know.
After a group of six people had breakfast, they drove back to the hotel. After arriving at the hotel, there was naturally nothing on Jiang Hai's side.
After all, Azarina and the others would not trouble Jiang Hai for this kind of thing.
After resting in the hotel for a while, Jiang Hai and the others went out for a tour today and had a good tour of Buenos Aires. In the evening, they had a good meal of beef and seafood at the hotel recommended here. After the big meal, they rested overnight. Early the next morning, they were ready to go, and following them was Louis Cazard and the others.
The group of people arrived at the airport in the morning. This time Jiang Hai and the others' goal was Antarctica. Naturally, it was impossible to go directly from Buenos Aires. What they wanted to go this time was Tierra del Fuego.
Tierra del Fuego is known as the closest landmass to Antarctica. It is located at the southernmost tip of South America and covers an area of approximately 48,700 square kilometers.
At the beginning, to be honest, this place was not very popular. After all, the environment here was very poor.
Apart from glaciers or swamps, there is almost no way to survive. However, since the global awareness has spread, many countries have been interested in this place. After all, this is the Antarctic outpost.
In the 19th century, that is, in the 1800s, during the great liberation period of South America, most countries in South America declared their independence within more than a hundred years. After liberation, the major countries Take up space.
Although Tierra del Fuego has no farts and is not suitable for human habitation, Chile and Argentina still had a few fights.
But in the end it felt a little unworthy, so in 1881, the two countries drew their own borders here. The east belonged to Argentina and the west belonged to Chile, with Argentina accounting for two-thirds.
And now Chile is almost going crazy with its original decision, because at first it seemed that there was nothing here, except for the glacial lake, it was a swamp, there was only a small piece of grassland, and it was next to the forest. It was really not a good place.
But now, the richness of the resources here has surprised everyone. Its proven iron ore reserves are 65 billion tons, ranking second in the world. Even though this is just an island, its richness of resources Outrageous!
How to describe it? China, in 1999, discovered that the country's iron ore reserves totaled 45.8 billion tons. This small island is 20 billion tons higher than China's total iron output, not to mention that there are still some places among the 45.8 billion tons. The reserves are small and not suitable for development. There are only 21.2 billion tons of development value. According to this island, the difference is more than 40 billion tons.
It can be said that this island can equal half of China's iron production, and that's not all. The reserves of uranium ore, bauxite, and manganese ore here rank third in the world, and the coal reserves are 230 million. billion tons, oil reserves of 3.6 billion barrels, natural gas 133 billion cubic meters, not to mention hydropower resources, surrounded by sea, forest resources, grassland resources...
It can be said that apart from being a little cold, this place is a perfect treasure.
Of course, Jiang Hai has no feelings about this place. For him, this place is just a passing place.
The Tierra del Fuego region in Argentina is equivalent to a province, and its capital, Ushuaia, is a small city with only 30,000 people.
It was officially opened in 1960. At this time, which is the summer when environmental pollution in the southern half of the country is dominated by environmental pollution, there are particularly many people coming from all over the world to travel. After all, everyone is still very interested in seeing Antarctica with their own eyes. .
Jiang Hai's goal this time is also here. After arriving here, they will take the icebreaker to go directly to the Antarctic, then land at the Antarctic detection station in the United States, and then go deep into the interior of the Antarctic.
After getting off the plane in Tierra del Fuego, Jiang Hai felt that the climate was completely different from Buenos Aires.
Because it’s hotter here now than Buenos Aires, there’s no way it can be considered summer in Antarctica.
After getting off the plane, they entered a pretty good hotel in Ushuaia. After all, this is an outpost of Antarctica, and those who can afford to go to Antarctica are basically not short of money. Therefore, the housing prices here are very good, and the supporting facilities are also very good. Jiang Hai and the others stayed here for one night and had nothing else to do.
No one came to trouble Jiang Hai and the others, and Jiang Hai and the others did not go out to play or anything like that. They just spent the night indifferently. Early the next morning, Louis Cazard had already arranged an icebreaker and brought it with him. Jiang Hai and the others got on the boat.
This icebreaker is not small, but its facilities are definitely not comparable to those of luxury cruise ships.
Fortunately, Louis Cazard was quite capable, and the ship he found was similar. The passenger cabin of the entire ship was divided into three parts.
One part is where the sailors, captains and the like stay on the ship. There is also a large partition with three rooms in it, which is prepared for those from the CIA. There is also another large partition with three rooms. , this is prepared for Jiang Hai and the others.
After getting on the boat, after all, Jiang Hai also has a fishing ground, so there is nothing wrong with him, but people who often go to sea know that after going to sea, you can't actually see anything, which is quite boring.
It's the same on this boat, because it's summer and there aren't even glaciers on the sea level, so naturally there's nothing interesting to see.
So after staying here for a while, Jiang Hai and the others went back to the ship's warehouse. Naturally, after returning, they checked their weapons, and when it was time for lunch, they went to eat.
There is a total distance of 800 kilometers from Tierra del Fuego to the Antarctic, and this ship can be driven relatively fast, at 20 knots per hour, which is almost 37 kilometers per hour. In other words, it will take a long time to maintain such a speed. It will take twenty-two hours to arrive.
What's more, the closer the ship gets to the Antarctic, the slower it will run because there will be some ice floes or shallow reefs on the seabed.
So according to Louis Kazade, it will take more than a day to get to Antarctica.
Jiang Hai and the others didn't care. After having lunch and dinner on the boat, Jiang Hai and the others went back to their rooms to sleep.
But early the next morning, Jiang Hai felt a biting cold wind blowing against him. When he opened his eyes, he found that Azarina, Galina and Wallis Shelley in his arms were all frozen. They huddled together and touched the edge of the bed next to them. They originally felt a little cool when they set off, but at this time, their hands were already freezing.
"It looks like it's almost here!" Picking up the thermometer on the table, the air temperature at this time had plummeted to about 2 degrees. Although it was still above zero, it was still very cold. Seeing this, Jiang Hai put the three women first He woke them up and told them to put on their clothes and go to sleep. Then he went out to wake up Bell Lester and Connerson, as well as Xiao Huang and Xiao Bai in another room. He also prepared coats for them in advance. Soon after everyone was fully armed, the sky outside also turned a fish belly white... (To be continued.)
