Chapter 140: Life Needs a Sense of Ritual
Capital Airport Business Jet Building, VVIP2 Lounge.
Lin Dingqiang and Xin Qing were sitting on the mahogany sofa, curiously looking at the starting point of this trip to Yangcheng.
Xin Qing is also a person who often flies in the air, she has sat in business class and first class, and it is the first time that she can go out by private jet.
If you choose this way of traveling, you don't have to change your boarding pass, you don't have to check in your luggage, and you don't have to crowd in the noisy waiting hall with your eyes glued to the electronic screen and your ears up to listen to the radio.
Here, you only need to sit in the 100-square-meter lounge, flip through the magazines on the table, look at the scenery outside the floor-to-ceiling glass windows, step on the soft wool carpet, and wait quietly and comfortably for the ground service staff to come to notice.
Compared with ground transportation, if economy class is like a hard seat on a green train, then business class and first class are equivalent to hard seats and soft sleepers, and private jets are equivalent to high-speed trains or bullet trains.
The refrigerator in the lounge has a lot of free drinks, and in addition to cola, coconut water, there are also some soft drinks such as beer.
In addition, delicate dim sum can also accompany you through the boring and boring waiting time, eat two bites, all to pass the time.
About 15 minutes later, Huo Jinwei took Huo Qingshan to the lounge, and when she saw the two people sitting in a precarious position, she smiled and said, "Mr. Lin, Miss Xin." How long will it take?"
Huo Qingshan seems to be used to traveling on her own plane, no matter which airport she is in, the first thing she does when she enters the door is to rush to the front of the refrigerator and find out the food she likes to eat from inside.
Lin Dingqiang and Xin Qing stood up and said politely, "Just arrived for a while." ”
Huo Jinwei smiled: "By the way, I'll go to my hotel for dinner when I get to Yangcheng." I have already contacted Teacher Xin and Aunt Shu, and I will send someone to pick them up in advance when the time comes. ”
"Thank you, Miss Huo. Xin Qing thanked.
The three of them exchanged pleasantries for a while, and then a young lady in a red vest stood outside the lounge and said respectfully, "Miss Huo, you can board the plane." ”
Huo Jinwei beckoned Huo Qingshan, "Shanshan, let's go." ”
Huo Qingshan was holding a bottle of coconut water in her arms, and after hearing that she was leaving, she jumped up happily, "Go home~"
When a few people arrived at the tarmac, a white-purple Challenger 850 was quietly docked to the side.
The two flight attendants were already standing straight on the side of the escalator, their hands folded on their abdomen, and the smiles on their faces were even brighter.
Seeing Huo Jinwei and the others coming, the flight attendants leaned forward slightly and greeted warmly: "Miss Huo, welcome home." ”
Stepping on the five-step escalator, Lin Dingqiang can be regarded as entering the interior of this Challenger 850.
The operation room from the paving is made of solid wood, which is full of texture. The slender interior space is home to eight sofas, plus a leather sofa that seats three or four people.
The polished solid wood dining table is covered with a diamond-patterned tablecloth, and if you look closely, there is also the logo of the Huo Group.
The rectangular porthole gives the passenger a good visual impression, and Lin Dingqiang can even think of the scene when the plane rushes into the sky and looks at the white clouds outside the window through the porthole.
Huo Qingshan ran to her place with ease, and as soon as she sat down, she said coquettishly to the flight attendant: "Auntie, I want to eat macarons." ”
The flight attendant who is called Auntie is only in her early 20s, if it was a civil airliner, she would probably be unhappy with this title a long time ago, but here she still said with a smile: "Miss Xiaohuo, you sit down obediently first, there will be more than macarons to eat!"
Huo Jinwei, Xin Qing and Lin Dingqiang sat at the small dining table, the man was naturally interested in these mechanical products, and looked back at the cockpit from time to time.
Huo Jinwei seemed to see through Lin Dingqiang's thoughts, and invited: "Mr. Lin, do you want to go and have a look?" ”
Lin Dingqiang stood up again and followed Huo Jinwei to the cockpit.
At this time, the captain was communicating with the tower.
Lin Dingqiang looked at the instrument display in the full warehouse, and instantly felt that it was more complicated than Li Jianhu's helicopter last time.
"Ground, good morning. Huo Shi 8632, ask if there is a flow control in Feiyang City?"
Since Lin Dingqiang was not wearing headphones, he couldn't hear the reply from the tower, but after a few seconds, the captain repeated the message from the tower again, "H5, G, T4, etc., Huo Style 8632." ”
Lin Dingqiang listened to a series of questions and answers, which were a little different from the usual English pronunciation, as if it was a professional name, and the plane began to slide slowly at this time, heading towards the position that the tower said.
After waiting for the parking position, the captain asked again: "Huo style 8632, can you push out and drive?"
After a moment of silence, the captain repeated again: "You can push out and drive, Huo Style 8632." ”
At this time, the purser of this route also came to the two of them and said politely: "Miss Huo, sir." The plane is about to take off. ”
Lin Ding forcibly glanced at the cockpit again, and then followed Huo Jinwei's footsteps back to his seat.
Xin Qing saw Lin Dingqiang coming back, and asked with a smile, "Is your curiosity satisfied?"
"There is no end to learning!" Lin Ding said stiffly: "I don't know if I don't see it, but I understand what the captain is doing before the plane takes off!"
Huo Jinwei laughed, "Mr. Lin is really funny when he speaks. There will be champagne and red wine later, what will you two drink?"
The two looked at each other and said in unison, "Champagne!"
The nose of the plane was adjusted and it was facing the runway.
It is a little different from ordinary airliners, even if the plane has begun to accelerate, the noise is not as loud as usual, and the overall feeling of turbulence is not so intense.
Xin Qing looked at the rising ground outside the porthole, and couldn't help but take out her mobile phone and pat at the scenery outside the window, wanting to record this moment.
Private jets fly at much higher altitudes than civil aircraft, and once the plane climbs to an altitude of 45,000 feet, the white clouds are right under you, and the silky smooth flight experience is definitely worth a try.
The flight attendant also brought champagne at this time and opened it in front of the three of them, while another flight attendant presented Huo Qingshan with a double-layer platter composed of macarons and fresh fruits.
You can experience a unique treatment at an altitude of 10,000 meters, drink champagne, eat delicious desserts, and look at the beautiful scenery outside the window.
After the three of them took the wine glasses, they touched each other gently, and Huo Jinwei said, "Miss Xin, I'm very happy to know you." ”
Xin Qing responded: "It's my honor to be friends with Miss Huo. ”
The two women smiled at each other, then drank champagne elegantly.
And Huo Qingshan, who still had macarons in her mouth, said anxiously after seeing Huo Jinwei drinking again: "Mom, don't get drunk again!"
Huo Jinwei turned her head and looked at Huo Qingshan dotingly, "You won't get drunk!
Lin Dingqiang took the wine glass, turned his head to look at the sky above the capital, and sighed in his heart: "This is the sense of ritual needed in life!"
