Chapter 6 Flying to New York
When boarding the international flight that was about to take off, Kang Xiaoting and Su Mingjin were a little nervous.
The two of them have no airsickness, nor are they afraid of acrophobia. They just can't figure out why Colonel Xiang Yinghui sent them to the United States and had to wear suits and laces.
"Dear passengers, welcome to take flight ca981 of China International Airlines. This flight is from Beijing to New York. The departure time is 13:05 Beijing time and the arrival time is 14:20 Eastern Time. The flight is 12 hours and 15 minutes. The flight is about to take off. Please return to your seat and fasten your seat belts..."
When the flight attendant was broadcasting flight information, several beautiful flight attendants checked one by one whether the passengers had their seat belts tied up.
I don't know if it was intentional or unintentional, Su Mingjin tried a lot of effort to get the safety belt
"Sir, the seat belt is not so worn, let me help you."
The flight attendant skillfully helped Su Mingjin fasten his seat belt, leaving a sweet smile
Su Mingjin's face turned red. Seeing the suspicious look handed over by Kang Xiaoting, he quickly said: "Civil aviation planes are different from the planes we usually take, and even a seat belt is so complicated."
Kang Xiaoting rolled his eyes, completely disbelief of Su Mingjin's words
"Old Kang, don't believe it." Su Mingjin was a little anxious, "It's not that my brothers have not been on the plane, you know..."
"Well, no one said you have a journey of twelve hours, and you still have many opportunities."
"Lao Kang, who do you think of me?"
Kang Xiaoting shook his head with a smile, habitually touched the outside of his right leg, without a trace of security. Since he became an official member of the "Lion" brigade, this is the first time in thirteen years that Kang Xiaoting went out without a gun and sighed. Kang Xiaoting leaned on the seat and closed his eyes.
The b747 large passenger plane slowly slid towards the runway, and the roar of the engine came from outside the porthole.
Before the plane took off, Kang Xiaoting fell asleep. He knew that Su Mingjin must have been playing the flight attendant's wrong idea. I'm afraid he would not be able to protect his life and death along the way. Kang Xiaoting had nothing to worry about.
When arranging the task, Xiang Yinghui gave them two passports, two official travel visas, two international flight tickets, two expensive suits that looked valuable, two pairs of handmade leather shoes imported from Italy, and two sets of personal supplies. After they arrived in New York, they were ordered to obey the orders of a military intelligence agent named Li Cunxun.
Even the direct boss Lu Chengwen was not seen, and the two were taken to Beijing and on the flight
Kang Xiaoting, who was sleeping in a daze, felt Su Mingjin leave his seat and heard a sweet laugh, and Su Mingjin's slightly hoarse voice
This kid must be seducing the stewardess
More than ten years of habit have made Kang Xiaoting develop the ability to open one eye when he sleeps. Even in the barracks, he will not sleep too heavily, and always keep a little vigilance and alertness.
The plane vibrated suddenly, and Kang Xiaoting woke up immediately
"What happened?"
Su Mingjin was also startled, looked at Kang Xiaoting, then shook his head
"Dear passengers, the flight has encountered turbulence, so don't worry, please return to your seat and fasten your seat belt..."
Kang Xiaoting breathed a long sigh and leaned back on the seat
At this time, the flight attendant who started to help Su Mingjin wear his seat belt came over, "We will fly out of the turbulent flow area soon. The flight will be six hours before it can reach its destination. If you can't sleep, you can play the movie on demand."
After saying that, the flight attendant took out the headphones on the back of the front seats for Su Mingjin and flipped off the folding screen.
"Can you watch the news program?" Kang Xiaoting asked. He really couldn't sleep anymore
The flight attendant nodded with a smile, and then taught Kang Xiaoting how to use a wired remote control to select a news channel.
There are not many satellite TV programs that can be received on the flight, and there are only five channels to toss and turns, including two English channels, one French channel and one Latin channel, and only one Chinese channel
After choosing the news channel of China International Radio and Television Station, Kang Xiaoting put on his headphones
Soon, a news appeared on the screen that interested him
Before leaving Brasilia and set off for Buenos Aires, Jiyouguo and Brazilian President Lucio signed the China-Pakistan Economic Strategic Cooperation Agreement and reached a new foreign trade settlement agreement with Brazil. The economic and trade delegation accompanied by the company no longer uses the US dollar as the foreign trade settlement currency to sign a letter of intent for economic and trade cooperation worth 40 billion reais, approximately US$22 billion. The most eye-catching one is the long-term iron ore supply agreement between Chinese steel companies and Brazilian Vale.
"...According to what we just learned, the Head of State of Ji You will arrive in Buenos Aires at 17 o'clock local time to make an official visit to Argentina. The same as the signing of a strategic economic cooperation agreement between China and Pakistan, the Head of State of Ji You will sign an important strategic economic cooperation agreement with Argentine President Salas in Buenos Aires. The economic and trade delegation will also conduct extensive exchanges and cooperation with Argentine enterprises. It is expected to sign a letter of intent for cooperation with a total value of 700 pesos. Details of this station will follow up and report that I am a reporter from China International Radio and Television Station..."
Turn off the sound, Kang Xiaoting closed his eyes
Kang Xiaoting is a pure soldier, not a politician, and even has no political talent. He only knows that the international situation is turbulent and the domestic situation is also hidden. The head of state visits nine countries in Asia, Africa, Latin America and Europe at this time, which requires both great courage and great courage.
"Lao Kang, Lao Kang..."
"What's the matter?" Kang Xiaoting opened his eyes, "If you didn't hook up with the flight attendant, just come to cause trouble for me?"
"Who is hooking up with a flight attendant? I told you, have you read the news at the beginning?"
"News?" Kang Xiaoting glanced at the screen in front of Su Mingjin and found that Su Mingjin was watching the news program of n TV stations
"I tell you, how many tricks are the head of state?"
"When did you understand English?" Kang Xiaoting scratched his scalp
"Why don't I understand?" Su Mingjin immediately asked back, "When Team Lu asked us to learn English well, you said it was useless. I learned with my heart that I couldn't get any CET-4 and CET-6 certificates, and I couldn't pass TOEFL, but it's okay to understand a few simple English sentences."
"Come on, just blow it."
"I'm not bragging to you to come to New York. You have to follow me and don't get lost."
Kang Xiaoting rolled his eyes and said, "I won't brag to you anymore, what news are you starting to say?"
"The Head of State is likely to agree to sell arms to Argentina."
Kang Xiaoting frowned slightly, thinking that this is not a news report. The five permanent members of the Security Council are the five largest arms dealers in the world, and the Republic has been trying to expand its arms sales.
"This is not a small deal, 8 'KJV 200', 120 J-10', 4 air defense frigates, 4 conventional submarines, and supporting ammunition and electronic equipment worth nearly $2 billion."
"This arms cost more than one billion US dollars, right?"
Su Mingjin immediately nodded, "If we can do this transaction, the domestic arms companies will become big."
"Where does Argentina get so much money?"
Su Mingjin was stunned, and then smiled awkwardly, "Why do you care about so much? As long as Argentina pays, we will sell it. We can't do business that loses money and makes a lot of money."
Kang Xiaoting smiled and shook his head. He knew that Su Mingjin's English level was not very good.
"Old Kang, don't sleep." Su Mingjin hit Kang Xiaoting's arm, "You said, the head of state is doing so many things, are you planning to do something in the American backyard?"
"What do you care about this?" Kang Xiaoting sighed, "We are not the head of state, how do you know what the head of state wants to do?"
"Why don't you care?" Su Mingjin deliberately approached a little, "Think about it, if Argentina fights, will we have a chance to come here to make a few votes?"
"Come on, let's take care of your own affairs first. Why do you think so much?"
"Old Kang, listen to me that Liang Guoxiang and the others made a big profit last time. I heard that Kong Zhigao sent his son to a noble school. My brothers still don't know where the son is. If you have the chance to make a fortune, you might be able to save enough money to marry your wife, right?"
Kang Xiaoting didn't want to pay attention to his long-lasting partner, so he had already closed his eyes
He was not worried about not being able to marry his wife, but was worried that Xiang Yinghui was not clear about this action. He was about to arrive in the United States and didn't even understand what he was going to do. It would be strange if Kang Xiaoting was not worried.
More than five hours later, flight CA981 landed on the runway at Kennedy International Airport in New York.
After successfully clearing, the two of them walked towards the airport exit with their luggage that was so simple that they could not be simple.
Outside, there were crowds of people, and there were tour guides who came to pick up the tour, as well as civilians who came to pick up the tour.
When we arrived in a strange place, two special forces soldiers who had never left the country in a formal manner had become more vigilant and were cautious in paying attention to passing passengers.
Just after walking out of the passage, a middle-aged man in a black suit walked towards them
Kang Xiaoting and Su Mingjin immediately stopped
"Kang, Su?"
The two special forces soldiers were stunned for a moment, then nodded
"plz follow me"
Not too long, the middle-aged man said hello and walked towards the parking lot outside
"Old Kang, he is..."
Kang Xiaoting hit Su Mingjin, stopped Su Mingjin's words, and accelerated his pace to keep up with the man in front of him.
The three of them got into a "Fox" sedan produced by Ford and left the airport
"Hello, I'm Liu Xiaobin." After getting on the highway, the middle-aged man took out a pack of camel brand cigarettes, "Do you smoke?"
Kang Xiaoting took the cigarette he handed over, "Isn't Li Cunxun the one who came to pick us up?"
"Old Li can't leave if you have something to do, let me pick you up." Liu Xiaobin looked at the two sitting in the back row through the rearview mirror, "I am Lao Li's partner. After you return to the placement, you will see him."
Nodded, Kang Xiaoting carefully lit a cigarette
