Chapter 376 Opening Up Another Business Resource(1/2)
An-124 transport aircraft, known as the world's largest transport aircraft, has a maximum take-off weight of 405 tons.
Can transport Boeing 737, ships, satellites, tanks, fighter jets, helicopters, missiles...and more!
Even buses and large trucks can be accommodated as usual.
As for the armed helicopter Mi-28, it can transport three at one time!
Such large transport aircraft are vital in modern warfare!
Moreover, it is for both military and civilian use.
Whether it is international ocean trade or war transportation, large transport aircraft are necessary.
Si Chen took the bill of lading signed by Yan Qiao and found the person in charge of the warehouse.
The other party was a fat old man with white hair. He pointed at the old transport plane in the grass over there and said:
"Hey, that's the one, drive away!"
Having learned from the past, Si Chen specially gave the fat uncle a box of cigarettes he bought on the road.
The fat uncle’s white beard trembled with his smile:
"Young man, that's interesting!"
The fat uncle also lit a cigarette first, enjoyed one himself, and then said:
"This was taken from the Afkhan battlefield. It has been left here for a year without anyone taking care of it."
"As for me, it turns out that I am the captain of this transport plane."
"They are all gone, um, yes, they are all gone, to other crews."
"I have been in the army all year round, my children have already started their own families, and my wife..."
At this point, he sighed and did not continue.
Si Chen listened to the words of the translator beside him and murmured in his heart.
Look at this uncle's slovenly appearance and his nagging appearance. Could it be that he suffered from psychological trauma after the war?
The fat uncle smoked the cigarette until only the butt was left, then added another cigarette butt and started smoking slowly.
He held the cigarette with his black-stained fingers, pointed at the transport plane, and said:
"You don't know, he is my old friend, I love him very much, really!"
"I was alone, homeless, and should have reached the age of retirement."
"But I can't bear to leave my old buddy. I want to stay with him until he dies of old age!"
"I want to watch its fuselage, bit by bit exposed to wind and sun, rain and rust."
"You see, this is the fate of my old friend and I."
"When we go to the battlefield, we are the brave and fearless 'Ruslan'!"
"After we get off the battlefield, even if we all become giant toothless sharks, we are still passionate young people and can still serve our country!"
Si Chen's expression was suddenly hard to describe!
This guy seems to be in a special situation, but he can't ruin my big event!
After a few flashes of thought, Si Chen suddenly understood something——
The food Yan Qiao allocated to the Air Force was most likely not large.
The Air Force didn't get much food, so they neglected themselves so much.
Take a look, you don’t even have a decent contact person, so that still doesn’t explain the problem?
Where is the new plane that was promised?
This damn thing, an old transport plane, is here to kill me!
…
Si Chen thought for a moment, took out another pack of cigarettes and stuffed it into the fat uncle's hand.
"Uncle, I want to meet your general."
The uncle chuckled: "Young man, are you kidding me?"
As he said this, the uncle put the cigarette in his pocket without stopping for a second.
"I have 50 tons of flour. Ask your general if he is interested."
Si Chen directly used his trump card!
The fat uncle’s face suddenly changed!
After five full seconds, he finally reacted and ran away:
"Just wait, I'll shout right now!"
The fat uncle ran into a whirlwind, just like a top thrown out of a whip.
The person next to him looked confused: "Brother Chen, haven't all our grains been unloaded? Where did the 50 tons of flour come from?"
Si Chen slowly took out his mobile phone and dialed a number.
Ten seconds later, the call was connected:
"Hello, I'm Si Qingbai."
"Uncle, I am Si Chen. We have a little problem now and need your help."
"you say."
"Prepare 100 tons of flour, just 85 flour. In three days, a transport plane will come over here and bring it back."
On the other side of the phone, Si Qingbai was silent for three seconds and only said one word:
"good!"
…
Half an hour later.
Si Chen sat in General Ivanlov's office.
The other party was a bearded old cadre about fifty years old, wearing an olive green military uniform, with thick eyebrows and big eyes:
"Where are your 50 tons of flour?"
Facing such a powerful battlefield general, Si Chen was not afraid of the stage.
He slowly picked up the strong coffee on the table, took a sip, and frowned, it was so damn bitter!
There is absolutely no sugar in this stuff!
Si Chen put down his coffee, tried his best to smile, and said:
"You need to send another transport plane to go back with our 'traded' transport plane."
"Over there, I have prepared the flour. You can transport it back directly."
"Those are all yours and belong only to you."
This statement is very meaningful.
Ivanlov didn't get much food from Yan Qiao, so it would be difficult to feed the people under his command.
Si Chen could vaguely guess that it would only last for a week.
But if there were another 50 tons of flour given by Si Chen, the situation would be completely different!
Si Chen could tell that Ivanlov and Yan Qiao also "partnered" to win the world.
Therefore, there is no problem in trading with Ivanlov.
Everyone is talking about business!
Ivanlov held a black pipe in his hand and smoked it slowly, weighing the pros and cons.
In the Soviet Union, the army itself was strong.
The sky and the sea are actually just like that.
Even though the Soviet Union has so many advanced weapons, the most important thing is the army.
Here in Ivanlov, many supplies are already in short supply.
Si Chen noticed that Ivanlov was already smoking a pipe, not a cigar, not even a cigarette.
If there is no sugar in the coffee, there is a high probability that it will be gone!
They are the privileged class and are given priority.
There are even farms specially opened for them to specialize in the things specially provided for them.
Now, even they are in short supply!
The gap in people's livelihood supplies in Su State is no longer as huge as usual.
