The next day, Shi Li didn't ask Shi Xiaomin to see her off. In the morning, she went back to the police station and handed over the car equipped for her and the documents arranged by the police station. At noon, Superintendent Liu Yushan invited her to have a meal alone and drove her to the airport in person. When she walked out of the Beijing airport, the one who sent her to pick her up was a special bulletproof car specially designed for the ministerial chief. Obviously, because of Shi Tian's relationship, Shi Li became a national treasure figure. The police car drove the way along the way and directly sent her to the headquarters building of the Ministry of Public Security.

After talking to the leader who received her, Shi Li learned that as expected, she was still in the Ministry of Public Security, responsible for criminal investigation and research. Her real identity was a special liaison officer between China and the Tianshi Empire, and she directly belonged to the leadership of the Ministry of National Defense. Working in the Ministry of Public Security was just a cover-up. Although Shi Li couldn't bear to give up her criminal investigation work, she also hoped that she could help Shi Tian and Tianshi Castle. When she learned that the government of her motherland wanted to secretly support the Tianshi Empire, she would certainly not refuse this job.

The Ministry of Public Security has prepared an office with a spacious living room and a lounge for Shi Li, who can live directly in the office, and also provided her with an assistant, Yi Zhengxian, a special agent from the Ministry of National Security whom she met at the Hong Kong airport before. In addition, the Ministry of National Defense also called four bodyguards from Zhongnanhai to act as her subordinates, which is of course to protect her safety.

There is no need to prepare for this work for Shi Li. After understanding the meaning of the Ministry of National Defense, he called Shi Tian that night. If someone else was changed, even if the Chinese Minister of National Defense called Shi Tian, ​​Shi Tian would not bother to pay attention to it. However, if Shi Li changed, he didn't care what Shi Li said on the phone and agreed to it. The Ministry of National Defense asked Shi Li to be the liaison officer. It was definitely looking for the right person.

After a period of preparation, at the end of September, Shi Li and her working group led three senior engineers from the Ministry of Defense and an engineering team that was also affiliated with the Ministry of Defense. More than 300 people arrived at the Tianshi Islands as engineering contractors. The task was to design and build necessary defense facilities for the Tianshi Empire. The engineering team originally invited by Tianshi Castle was able to build the world's tallest building and the most brilliant palace, but security projects were not their strengths. The engineering team brought by Shi Li immediately made Laurente, who was in charge of the reconstruction of the Tianshi Islands, overjoyed.

However, since he is the contractor, the project contracting agreement still has to be signed and the fees are paid as normal. In addition, China secretly provides defense equipment worth hundreds of millions of dollars, which was originally a gift, but Laurent proposed that the cost will be paid by the Tianshi Empire itself and asked to increase investment in this regard, so that the three engineers would boldly plan and not save money. If the Tianshi Islands can be built like an iron barrel, it would be okay even if it costs tens of billions or hundreds of billions of dollars.

The construction of military projects was to be increased so many times at once. The three engineers and Shi Li couldn't make the decision, so they fed the information back to the country. After the Ministry of National Defense learned about it, the reply was that except for some important confidential parts that could not be provided for the time being, the others tried to meet the requirements of the Tianshi Empire. Since the Tianshi Empire was not afraid of spending money, the three engineers also let go of their hands in design. Compared with the domestic careful calculations when doing projects, they all made their professional abilities extraordinary. However, the two islands in the north and south combined are only more than 100 square kilometers. Even if a large iron barrel is really cast to cover it, they still cannot withstand the damage caused by the pouring of powerful firepower from the enemy.

Therefore, the Chinese Ministry of National Defense sent two underground engineering experts to design two large-scale underground castles for the north and south islands. In the design, each underground castle is divided into seven floors, which can accommodate up to tens of thousands of people. The bottom layer is more than one kilometer away from the ground. Even if nuclear weapons are detonated on the island, the people hiding in the underground castle can be unaffected at all. In addition, each underground castle has dozens of exits. Some exits lead to surrounding islands, some exits lead directly to the sea, and seven tunnels connect each floor of the two underground castles. This not only improves the safety factor, but also increases the mobility of personnel during combat. Even if the north and south islands are bombed into ruins, the terrible death traps are still welcomed by the invaders.

With the island's buildings and ground defense system, the total cost of land is only more than 40 billion US dollars. It is half the difference from the 100 billion US dollars that Laurent wanted to use. However, after reading the design, Laurent, Brad and others were already quite satisfied after listening to the engineer's explanation. After all, it was just to prevent it. Most of the forces owned by the Tianshi Empire were distributed all over the world. Even if the world was peaceful and no one was against them, they would not concentrate all their forces on these two islands. If anything happened, they would not put the battlefield on this land they had just owned.

The buildings on the ground of the Tianshi Islands, including the palace, can be completed within one year, and the defense system is constructed in several steps, and can be built and put into use in a few days as soon as possible. However, it will take more than a year overall. As for the underground castle, it takes a relatively long time, and it will be built and used in stages. It will take at least three years to complete it.

After staying on the island for a week, Shi Li left behind the engineers and returned to Beijing first. The day she left was October 1, which was the first day when the International Court of the Hague held a trial on the site of the Colloblau Islands.

If it were the Tianshi Castle, which used to be low-key, would he respond according to common sense when encountering disputes. If he should go to court, he would go to court. But now Shi Tian is back, they will use the character and preferences of the owner of Shi Tian as the standard for doing anything. They know that if they go to the International Court of Justice to defend people for such a thing, they will definitely be scolded by the owner, which will make the owner unhappy. Therefore, the Tianshi Empire now ignores this and just treats the case with nothing to do with it. No one is sent, nor does it invite a lawyer to go to the International Court of Justice to respond to the news. However, the casino in Las Vegas still needs to continue to operate and needs to maintain a law-abiding image in front of the public. Besides, the casino is not owned by the Tianshi Alliance alone. They sent an ordinary employee of the Public Relations Department and hired a lawyer to go to The Hague.
