Chapter 1473 - Buy a cruiser

In Charlie's eyes, the Queen of England is just an ornament, a mascot, the British and Commonwealth fleets are not hers, and her family is just a sustenance for John Bull to reminisce about the good old days.

There is nothing to envy that the old lady may have a symbolic escort of a warship on her trip, like the diamond on her scepter, is it hers?

No, that's British.

What about your own home?

It's all your own!

"Escort with the Komsomol membership?" Chariz Theron's mind turned, the name was really familiar.

But after Zhang Nan finished speaking, the girl asked slightly puzzled: "Isn't the Communist Youth League member number sinking, it was hyped on the news for a long time last year...

No, you're not done, it's not the fish made of gold. ”

It's no wonder that Charlie misunderstood, she was with a group of guys with guns every day, and she had seen her brother's private army, and she was definitely more interested in arms than women who only knew designer perfumes, jewelry, and luxury clothes.

But the sunken Soviet Project 685, Komsomol attack nuclear submarine is so famous!

The Soviet third-generation nuclear submarine with the port number К-278 was launched in 1983 and officially entered service in the Red Navy in January 1984.

With an underwater displacement of 8,000 tons and nuclear torpedoes on duty, it is the world's largest and most advanced attack nuclear submarine!

Yes, as far as Zhang Nan can talk to Charlie, if the Komsomol does not sink, it is the most advanced.

The Los Angeles-class attack nuclear submarine of the United States is not an opponent at the same level as it, and even the Seawolf class, which is being rebuilt and rebuilt, may be on the Komsomol in all indicators, except for the number of weapons it carries, the other American submarines are completely defeated!

It makes sense that it is advanced, because no country in the world, except for the USSR, would have made a nuclear submarine out of expensive titanium!

The Soviet Union used this hard, expensive metal to make the pressure-resistant hull of the Komsomol Member, and on August 5, 1983, it safely dived to a depth of 1,200 meters, which is beyond the reach of all other countries' anti-submarine equipment!

The Komsomol not only has a powerful attack power and an unreasonable diving depth, but also uses a liquid metal nuclear reactor that has no other branch in the Soviet Union, and can actually run the maximum underwater speed of 38 knots, and the noise is very low when diving at a lower speed!

However, last year, Russian newspapers revealed that it had sunk due to a fire on April 7, 89, and 42 of the 69 crew members of the boat were killed, and it is still lying on the bottom of the sea at a depth of 1,882 meters.

As for the "fish made of gold" that Charlie said, it is really because the construction cost of the 685-class nuclear submarine is so expensive, that even the powerful and often costless Soviet Union only built the Komsomol one.

Regarding Charlie's reaction, Zhang Nan smiled and said, "It's not a submarine, it's the fourth Glorious-class cruiser, the Komsomol member."

This will be at the Nikolaev shipyard in Ukraine, and I had been asking Andrei's people to contact the Ukrainian government to buy the ship.

It was before that Ukraine and Russia were still talking about the legacy in a bunch of shipyards, and it took two days to distinguish it, and the Komsomol members finally returned to Ukraine. ”

Chariz Theron blinked and asked with a little doubt: "I know the glorious class, it's very powerful, the guys from Russia say that a single ship will beat Ticonderoga, if it is close to 500 kilometers, a single ship can destroy most of the Nimitz aircraft carrier formation."

But this baby Ukraine will sell you?"

Zhang Nan shrugged his shoulders, "Why don't you sell it?"

They are now as poor and crazy as Russia, and they will not be able to use such a powerful cruiser of the Glory class in the future, and they will not be able to raise it now.

The most important thing is that if the warship sells me, 10-20% of the activity space can be vacated in the contract, which is not visible on paper.

With hundreds of millions of business, those traitors and corrupt elements of the Soviet Union can make a lot of money!

They will ask for my kickbacks, and the amount on paper may be greedy. These Ukrainian politicians, hehe..."

"Beware of spending money on goods that will drag you for a few years. ”

Zhang Nan shook his head and said, "They don't dare." ”

"I've heard that now Ukraine and Russia are unable to move an inch without money, they can't do anything without money, they talk about money for everything, and gangsters are rife everywhere. ”

Zhang Nan smiled and touched the girl's head, Charlie didn't hide, she got used to it in the past few years.

"It was set up there for two or three years, and Andrei's people joined in. Charlie, if you want to go to the Kremlin for tea, then you probably have to come with me.

But if you want to go to the presidential palace in Ukraine, visit the Mariinsky Palace, which is relatively simple, and the people there will treat you as a guest of honor.

The president of Ukraine, Kravchuk, is said to be okay, but although he is a graduate of economics, a candidate of economics, and a university teacher in economics.

But... After 30 years of party work, his economic theories are outdated, but even if they are not outdated, they cannot stop the deterioration of Ukraine's domestic economy.

The economic aid of the Western-style world is nothing, and the rapid transformation of people's minds is even more terrible, and now he is anxious about the economy of Ukraine, and if you go to it, then he will be very happy. ”

"Brother, does money really have that much power?"

"Yes, money is good, but the money spent has power.

The basic conditions of Ukraine are the best among all the Soviet republics, but it is a pity that they have broken themselves in the past two years. Think about your brother's combined forces, how much of the equipment in it was brought from Ukraine?

The president can't control the people below, it's hard to say whether he can make money himself, at least there are few bureaucrats in Ukraine who are not greedy now.

Da Maozi is still relatively shrewd, and he is not ruthless when he loses, and the hard work of this Ermaozi in Ukraine in the past two years is enough for it to make itself miserable. ”

"Corrupt officials are not good at doing things. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Nan scratched the girl's nose, "Corrupt officials are very neat, as long as there are benefits, Olympic speed!"

"What if you're too greedy?"

"My brother taught you one thing, an official can never compare to a gun, or the more greedy an official is, the more afraid of death.

The whole of Ukraine is so riddled with holes that it is too convenient to do something there. And even if the corrupt officials in Ukraine want to emigrate and run away, where can they go?"

After Zhang Nan said this with a smile, Charlize Theron rolled his eyes, "You're a bad person!"

"You didn't just find out today, but I'm going to live a long life.

It is said that good people do not live long, and the scourge will last for thousands of years, and the people who harm the world are almost all pampered and selfish, and they live a comfortable life and live a long life.

So brother, I am occasionally a good person, and most of the time I am never a good person, and this matter is said in our Huaxia Taoist family..."

Charlie continues to roll her eyes, everyone in the American upper class pretends to be sanctimonious, Hollywood is even more masked to live, politicians are like saints, and it is really rare in the world to be able to tell the truth like my brother.

Or: don't be cheeky!

Zhang Nan doesn't care, how tired he is wearing a mask all the time, and even more tired when he wears a mask in his family years ago, "... Taoism says that man consists of three souls and seven spirits, of which the seven spirits are the physical body, and the three souls are spiritual things and the foundation of life.

The three souls are divided into souls, living souls, and awakened souls - the soul is beautiful, and the higher a person's soul, the better the moral character and the kinder the heart.

The soul is the soul of life, the soul of consciousness is the soul of feeling, and whether a person survives depends on whether he still has a living soul.

If there is no soul and no soul left, and only one living soul remains, then there is only life, no feeling and no thought, commonly known as the 'living dead', or 'vegetative person'.

We are a complex of contradictions, and if there are more souls, there will be fewer souls and souls;

If there are more souls in this life, the souls or awakened souls will have to decrease...

The sum of the three is a constant quantity, and if either side has more or less, it will inevitably make the remaining two less or more.

The higher a person's moral character and the more kind-hearted he is, the more souls he has, so that there will be relatively fewer souls or souls, so there will be 'good people do not live long'.

In the same way, the worse a person's heart and lower his moral character, the weaker his soul will be, and there will be more souls or souls, so it is 'bad people live long'. ”

Charlize Theron has been learning Chinese, learning about Chinese culture, and knowing that his brother, brother-in-law, and Guan Ge are practicing the mysterious Taoist classics.

She understood Zhang Nan's theory in Chinese, and said with wide eyes: "It's incredible, right?"

"Haha..."

Zhang Nan laughed, "I don't know if it's true or not, but I'll interpret it in another way."

This bad guy is selfish and can ignore social norms, as long as he is not stupid, then his living conditions will be good.

As for good people, the living conditions of many good people will be relatively poor, and it is difficult for good people to mix.

Do you say that a person who does not even have enough to eat and who is not well healed when he is sick can live as long as a bad person who has a good living conditions, a good mood, and the best treatment for his illness?

This is the tragedy of history and real society, human nature is selfish!

Charlie, be kind to your family and friends, do good deeds once in a while to balance your mind, and strive to be able to hang on the wall when you are 100 years old. ”

Chariz Theron smiled slightly: "You bad guy!"

"Don't talk about bad people, don't say bad people, in two days we will go to Ukraine, go back to be a good person, and how about being a bad person?"

Although I don't know how to be a good guy or a bad guy, the girl still said, "I'll go wherever you go." ”

No matter if you are a good person or a bad person, you will be in a good mood with your brother, and you will probably live a long life.

The German countryside is very distinctive, almost all the houses are traditional buildings with the top of the house, many of which have a history of one or two hundred years, because of continuous maintenance, both inside and outside, there is no common old and dilapidated feeling of those old houses in the Ming and Qing dynasties in the hometown.

The weather is in early spring, and you can see a lot of green when walking in the countryside, and if you come in autumn, you will be covered with fallen leaves, which will be a little feeling.

It's difficult for the security personnel, and someone has to arrange and protect them in front and back, not to mention when Zhang Nan and Charlie wear sunglasses and hats to visit the flea market.

A large group of bodyguards turned into passers-by to secretly protect, and they had to play a pro-people gimmick with the President of the United States!

There's no way, it's just like that, it's famous, not to mention that there are already a lot of enemies in the dark and in the open.

The big guys have the troubles of the big guys, the ordinary people have the pleasures of the ordinary people, and when the two of them were hanging out in the flea market with Charlie, they really missed the days when they could go to the market at will.

Not only does she miss the time when she didn't have money, but even Nicole also misses the time when she accompanied herself to find Tang Dao: hundreds of millions of dollars are worth just that, and now it's really not good.

Unless...

"When you and I go back to Huaxia and visit the antique market in my hometown, the two of us are not very famous over there, at least there are not many people who know our face, so you don't have to hug and follow dozens of people, at most two or three are enough." ”

Regarding Zhang Nan's words, the girl said: "I will go wherever you go." ”

"That's early. ”

The girl didn't ask why, what Zhang Nan thought was that after the global release of "Titanic" and the flooding of pirated discs in China, Charlie's face would definitely become more well-known than herself in China!

On the 21st, all the formalities were completed on the Ukrainian side, the Komsomol member already belonged to the Gambian Navy in legal terms, and Zhang Nan planned to go to Ukraine.

He really liked that ship, and he bought it even as an ornament, just like he had someone build the Star.

The problem of rich people, I remember that Abu spent nearly a billion dollars to build a yacht with only 14 billion family assets, and Zhang Nan's cash money is more than ten or twenty times his total worth, and buying a cruiser is a petty fight.

However, this exciting news will not be made public for the time being, and the Ukrainian government also has its own considerations: this is to save face, and the international community knows that the small bullshit country in Gambia has been completely controlled by a private company, and such a transaction needs a certain amount of fermentation before it is suitable for disclosure.

Otherwise...

A bunch of trouble!

Two days later, Zhang Nan left for Ukraine, he wanted to see his big ship, and by the way, buy some other things from the Ukrainian government that they would like to sell.

The itinerary was kept secret and was carried on an An-124 giant transport plane that arrived at Hamburg Airport to transport bulky cargo and flew directly to the port city of Mykolaiv in southern Ukraine.

The upper cabin of the An-124 can accommodate 88 passengers, and this time almost half of them were seated: the planes flew together, most of them changed into the uniforms of the Ukrainian army, and they looked the same as the Soviet servicemen of a few years ago.

Half an hour after the plane took off, Zhang Nan found that Charlie was a little unstable today, so he asked her, "Not used to it?"

The aircraft is in rudimentary condition.

"No, I'm a little worried about the mess over there. ”

Clapping her hand, "Don't worry, we're flying straight to the air base there, where the base commander is with the company's purchasing manager and Andrei's people."

There are still most of the people in our company's battalion in the base, and Brother Guan is already there, rest assured. ”

Didn't tell the Ukrainians who was going there, anyway, the payer came!

Not only the payment from the shipyard, but also some equipment of the Air Force are waiting.

The cash will be given to a part of the money first, and the big head will take his time, and the arms will be bought like this, the goods will not be delivered, and the money will not be paid off.

As for the battalion that was transferred in advance from Angola, it was all Russians, the main force in the battle for African interests, and only obeyed the orders of the company!

Safe, 100% safe, in two or three days, Zhang Nan will let people inform the Ukrainian prime minister or president that he is in their country and has time to drink tea or something.

The Ukrainian leadership knows that Allen reality is by no means an enemy of Ukraine, but a big good friend!
