As long as these four people appeared within the monitoring range of the ground net system, they could get the message immediately.
Although Ye Chen was burning with anxiety, he also knew that such matters could not be rushed, so he could only accept reality.
As for Lin Wan’er’s side, he did not pursue it further because he himself did not expect Lin Wan’er, who usually went only between school and home, to help him find Xiao Churan who had long left Jinling.
…
And at this time, Xiao Churan’s family was still drifting on the South Pacific.
Sailing on the ocean was extremely dull, but fortunately, the hardware on the ship was very comfortable, and the food and drink were almost all top world-class ingredients, which allowed Xiao Changkun and Ma Lan to fully indulge.
After several more days of drifting, Xiao Churan’s family finally arrived at a small island in the Windward Islands of French Polynesia, less than twenty square kilometres in area.
This island had been sold to a Silicon Valley tycoon seven or eight years ago, and the tycoon had invested heavily in rebuilding it, turning it into a private island with excellent hardware facilities.
This island not only had its own dock that could berth medium-sized yachts and seaplanes, but even had its own small airport with a runway of nearly two thousand metres, capable of taking off light jet business jets and fixed-wing aircraft.
Xiao Churan’s family had left the freighter in international waters, transferred to a seaplane that took off from the sea, and arrived at this island.
Before landing, when the plane overlooked the entire island, Ma Lan and Xiao Changkun were both dumbfounded.
Visibly, this island was extraordinary. Having a dock was one thing, but it even had its own airstrip.
At the dock was berthed a medium-sized yacht, and at the end of the runway was parked a twin-engine turboprop business jet produced by Hawker Beechcraft, the King Air 350.
After modification, this aircraft had a maximum range of nearly five thousand kilometres, able to fly directly from here to Hawaii Island, and with one refuelling, to Los Angeles.
On the north side of the island was a luxury residence costing tens of millions of dollars. The entire residence was built facing the sea; opening the door led to the beach and the green glass sea. The scenery was no less than that of the Maldives.
This luxury residence was prepared by An Chengxi for Xiao Churan’s family.
To be as isolated from the world as possible, the island was equipped with photovoltaic, wind, and tidal power generation, paired with super-large energy storage equipment, achieving complete self-sufficiency in electricity. Moreover, the ample electricity could also power the island’s seawater desalination equipment, solving the domestic water needs, so water and electricity did not need to rely on external supplies at all.
This place was several hundred kilometres from the freighter’s transport route, so resupplying was quite convenient. It only needed to rendezvous with the freighter midway to receive large amounts of supplies.
When the seaplane glided on the water surface until it stopped steadily at the dock, Xiao Changkun and Ma Lan could hardly wait and jumped out of the cabin.
Several servants came forward respectfully. The leading middle-aged Chinese man said attentively, “Mr Xiao, Ms Ma, welcome to the island. I am your butler Ning Xiaolong. In the future, all your food and daily life on this island will be handled by me. You two can just call me Little Ning.”
Xiao Changkun looked at the luxury yacht on the other side of the dock and could not help asking, “Little Ning, that yacht is also arranged by my good son-in-law, right?”
Ning Xiaolong had already received instructions, so he smiled and said, “Yes, Mr Xiao. Not only this yacht, but the plane on the runway is also arranged by Mr Ye. The yacht is for you and Ms Ma to go out to sea for play, and the plane is for handling emergencies.”
Xiao Changkun excitedly rubbed his hands, but soon his conscience stirred, and he muttered, “How much money has Ye Chen exactly swindled? If he gets caught, he will not be executed by firing squad, will he?”
