Chapter 622-623 Reception (3 & 4)

"Bring more money?"

Zhuang Rui frowned when he heard this, if it was good to say it a few days ago, who knew that Raytheon would suddenly have an extra plane? After deducting the purchase of the plane and the payment for the airport lease, Zhuang Rui now has no money left. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Brother Huangfu, you can send the relevant information of this auction to my mailbox first, and I will select ......."

After Zhuang Rui thought about it for a while, he decided to auction some items in a targeted manner, and first see what the auction was about.

After reporting his email address to Huang Fuyun, Zhuang Rui hung up the phone and sat on the bed and thought about it.

Now the funds I can use are only about 60 million RMB, which is only more than 6 million euros, and at the price of European and American artworks, I am afraid that it is only enough to buy a Picasso or one-tenth of a Van Gogh work.

Although the Chinese cultural relics craze has only risen in recent years, because of the intervention of international speculators and the promotion of the black hand behind the auction house, the price has risen very much.

"Husband, is there not enough money? Why don't I let Daddy turn over some of it for you first?"

Qin Xuanbing pulled out the quilt and sat next to Zhuang Rui, she knew that after Zhuang Rui bought this private jet, he didn't have a lot of money left, of course, for ordinary people, it was still an astronomical amount.

"No, Xuan Bing, I'm just going to take a look, I won't necessarily buy ......"

Zhuang Rui shook his head, more than 100 years ago, that old lady was not angry, why should she pay for her? And those international cultural relics speculators, I wish there were a few more people like Zhuang Rui to participate in the auction, in that case, the value of Chinese art will be speculated again.

Compared with the domestic and international cultural relics, the price is much higher, which is caused by these behind-the-scenes speculators.

As a result, some domestic cultural relics dealers, in order to make huge profits, are also trying their best to smuggle a large number of cultural relics abroad, such as the Yu boss in Shaanxi, is just one of these people, and although his criminal gang has been wiped out, but for the foreign recipients of cultural relics, the domestic law enforcement departments are also beyond the reach of the whip.

Thinking about this, Zhuang Rui's heart suddenly brightened, anyway, if he wants to go to Europe, he should go to the top international auction to see it, as for whether to buy it or not, it depends on the situation when the time comes, if there can be a treasure that foreigners don't recognize, Zhuang Rui doesn't mind making a move.

"Zhuang Rui, borrow some money for use, and it's not that you don't want to pay it back, why don't you want to......"

Seeing that Zhuang Rui rejected her suggestion, Qin Xuanbing puffed out her mouth, which made her feel that Zhuang Rui did not regard the Qin family as her own.

Zhuang Rui couldn't help laughing when he saw Qin Xuanbing's expression, stretched out his arm to hug Qin Xuanbing, and said: "Xuanbing, you think too much, I just don't want someone to maliciously hype up Chinese cultural relics, it's like a robber robbing your house, and you have to pay ten times or even 100 times the price to redeem it, will you be happy?"

Qin Xuanbing didn't know much about China's modern history, so she nodded as if she didn't understand, as long as she knew that Zhuang Rui was not separated from herself, it would be enough.

After a night of nothing, the next day, Zhuang Rui, accompanied by Qin Haoran, first went to the hotel to pick up Peng Fei and his party, and then drove directly to the Hong Kong airport, where people from Raytheon were waiting.

The registered place of this plane is Hong Kong, and all the navigation procedures have been completed, as long as Zhuang Rui signs, the business is completed, and it can be driven back to Beijing immediately.

"Wow, Zhuang Rui, that plane is called...... It's called Xuanrui?!"

After the car drove into the airport, it stopped under a small and medium-sized plane, and as soon as Qin Xuanbing got out of the car, he was attracted by the three words on the silver-shaped plane.

"That's right, it's called Xuanrui!"

Zhuang Rui never told Qin Xuanbing the name of the plane, just to surprise her, seeing Qin Xuanbing covering her mouth happily, her eyes were already filled with tears, Zhuang Rui gently hugged Qin Xuanbing's shoulder.

"Zhuang Rui, thank you......"

Qin Xuanbing, who has always behaved more traditionally in front of people, suddenly raised her head at this moment and kissed Zhuang Rui.

I am not afraid of women, what are Zhuang Rui afraid of, he suddenly opened his mouth and kissed it, this is not yet to the romantic capital of Paris, the two have already shown a hot kiss in public.

"Ahem...... Ahem......"

Qin Haoran couldn't look at it from the side, grandma's, this stinky boy hadn't married his daughter yet, and he was presumptuous in front of his father-in-law, but Qin Haoran forgot that it was his daughter who took the initiative just now.

"Uh, what, look at what we're doing, what are we going to do......"

After Zhuang Rui and Qin Xuanbing's kiss was interrupted by his father-in-law, he found that the two of them had become a landscape.

Not only was the crew staring at themselves, but also a few foreigners from the Raytheon company next to them were also looking at the two of them intently, and they suddenly became angry, and waved their hands to let the crew start receiving the plane and checking various data.

"Oh, dear Zhuang, you're more enthusiastic than us Americans...... Uh, that wandering ......"

Tom did this business, and he was also in the venue this time, in order to show his good relationship with this young rich Asian man, Tom said nondescript idioms in his mouth, and was ready to hug Zhuang Rui.

"Damn, don't say it if you don't know it, go and ...... it"

Zhuang Rui angrily pushed Tom aside, looked at the crew members and shouted, "Why are you still stunned, go check the information they provided, get on the plane to check......"

Seeing that Zhuang Rui was serious, everyone couldn't help laughing, and the staff of Raytheon Company cooperated with Zhuang Rui's crew to start work, in fact, these had been done a few days ago, and now it was just a routine.

It was only now that Zhuang Rui had time to observe the private jet that already belonged to him, and holding Qin Xuanbing's hand, the two of them circled around the plane.

The silver-grey Hawker 400 has a lighter fuselage made of the latest composite materials, a unique 450-knot high-speed cruise and a unique swept wing design, making it faster in its class.

The three Chinese on the smooth fuselage are particularly conspicuous, and many passengers who walked on the boarding bridge next to them looked at Zhuang Rui's private jet with envy, especially some Chinese tourists, after seeing those three words clearly, they began to guess and speculate.

"Xuan Bing, let's go up and have a look......"

With the height of this aircraft, there is naturally no need for a bridge, and there is an automatic spiral staircase at the cabin door, but you can enter the interior of the cabin by three or five steps.

Walking into the cabin, the aisles are not as spacious as ordinary civilian airliners, but the interior decoration is extremely luxurious.

The whole cabin layout is a standard 8-seater, equipped with double club-style leather executive seats, which is quite spacious, and the back four seats can be lowered to connect them together to become beds for guests to rest, and on the small table in the middle of the seats, a variety of foreign wines are placed.

Zhuang Rui visually measured that the length of this cabin should be about 7 meters, the width should be about two meters, and the height should be more than 1.8 meters.

The reason why Zhuang Rui agreed to buy this plane is that it saves time and is cheap, and secondly, he likes the height of the cabin, at least he doesn't need to bow down after coming in.

"Dear Zhuang, this is our Massachusetts specialty red wine, which is specially given by the company to our esteemed customers......" Tom, who followed behind Zhuang Rui, introduced those foreign wines like Zhuang Rui.

"Tom, thank you for your kindness, but we bought planes, didn't we?"

Zhuang Rui pursed his lips, he had never heard of Massachusetts specialty red wine in the United States? Who knows if it is the most famous wine in China, such as "Erguotou", three yuan and two a bottle, and a few dozen yuan to buy a box.

"Of course, our plane is also the best, Zhuang, what an intoxicating thing to sit on such a plane and travel and drink red wine......"

Tom was blocked by Zhuang Rui, but there was no impatience on his face, and he continued to introduce the situation of the plane to Zhuang Rui.

At the back of the cabin, there are lavishly appointed lavatories and vanities, with bright glass and carpeted floors that make it feel less like you're on an airplane.

After looking at the rear cabin, Zhuang Rui walked to the cab, this high-roller model, is made of two pilot seats, that is, the main and co-pilot, at this moment the pilot He Shuang and Ding Hao, who came out of the army, are under the guidance of the other pilot, familiar with the pilot's console.

"Lao He, how is it?

Zhuang Rui looked at the four LCD screens, as well as the dense electronic switches, his head couldn't help but get bigger, these things are complicated, Zhuang Rui is a little less confident in the two pilots, compared to before, one is driving a fighter jet, and the other is driving a big plane, I don't know if I can get this one?

"Cut, Brother Zhuang, do you know the point-and-shoot camera? This kind of operating system is similar to the point-and-shoot camera, and I can turn it ......on when I come up."

Before He Shuang could reply, Peng Fei on the side pouted, not to mention, he really knew how to fly this plane, although the training he received before was not as good as Bond 007 and the like, but he could still fiddle with simple airplane piloting.

Of course, it is estimated that if Peng Fei is allowed to drive, Zhuang Rui will definitely not be able to get on the plane, if the helicopter is almost the same.

"Mr. Zhuang, no problem, the operation of this aircraft is very simple, the manual and automatic navigation systems are very advanced, and it is much easier to drive than fighter jets and transport aircraft......"

He Shuang knew a little bit of Peng Fei's previous identity, and didn't mind Peng Fei's words, he joked with Zhuang Rui, he was very satisfied with his current job, his wife and children now live in a house provided by Zhuang Rui in Beijing, and the school has been arranged, and he has no worries.

The most important thing is that He Shuang knows that the use rate of private jets in China is not very high, and he has a lot of time to spend with his wife and daughter, making up for the regret of not being able to take care of his family in the army for many years.

"That's good, that's good......"

The professional spoke, Zhuang Rui naturally couldn't believe it, turned around in the cab, and returned to the cabin, two flight attendants wearing flight attendant clothes, which made Zhuang Rui look very pleasing to the eye.

One of the two flight attendants is named Tian Ya, who is two years older than Zhuang Rui, and has reached the level of foreman in the airline.

In fact, if she works hard every month and runs more flights, Tian Ya's monthly income is not much different from what Zhuang Rui gave, and the reason why she agreed to change jobs is also because she likes that private jets are more free in terms of time.

And the other girl is named Liuli, who is in a similar situation to Tian Ya, who has just gotten married and wants to be more relaxed, after all, it is easier to serve a few people on a private jet than to face so many guests on a flight.

And not only He Shuang knows, they also understand that the current usage rate of private jets in China is very low, maybe sometimes it will be a little busy, but there will definitely be 11 months a year, basically idle.

For this new working environment, Liuli and Tianya are still very satisfied, and they are not afraid of the boss to harass them, because the boss lady follows at any time, and it will definitely not happen when working in the airline, those harassments such as chest attacks.

"Dear Zhuang, how is it, are you still satisfied with this plane?"

After Zhuang Rui got off the plane, Tom immediately came over, and there were still some documents that Zhuang Rui needed to sign, and the transaction was completed.

Zhuang Rui showed a smile on his face for the first time today, nodded, and said: "Tom, I am very satisfied, but for your company's after-sales service, I hope it can be as ...... as you promised."

In fact, when Zhuang Rui saw this plane for the first time, he already felt that the huge amount of money spent was worth it, and the curves and colors of this silver eagle greatly satisfied Zhuang Rui's fantasy of flying in the sky.

Tom winked at Zhuang Rui and whispered: "Dear Zhuang, don't worry, there is our office in Hong Kong, and similarly, in the near future, maybe Beijing will have it, maybe you can see me......"

Tom has received news that the company is preparing to set up an office in Beijing, although there is no specific person in charge yet, but Tom, who is proficient in Chinese, is definitely under consideration.

Taking the document handed over by Tom, Zhuang Rui glanced at it roughly, and signed his name on the back, and in this way, this transaction of nearly 100 million yuan was officially completed.

"Zhuang, this is our company's VIP card, please accept, and on behalf of Raytheon company, I invite you to visit the company at the right time, the phone on the card is answered 24 hours a day, you only need to report the card number at that time......"

After Zhuang Rui signed, Tom solemnly handed Zhuang Rui a card, which is actually a means of their marketing, because forty percent of the customers visited the company and bought the second private jet produced by Raytheon, of course, the performance is better than the first one, and the price is naturally more expensive.

Zhuang Rui took the card, and the pilot of Raytheon Company also completed the handover with He Shuang and others at this time, and the group said goodbye and left.

The co-pilot, Ding Hao, poked his head out of the cabin and said to Zhuang Rui: "Mr. Zhuang, the route to Beijing has been applied, and it will take off in half an hour......

Aviation restrictions in Hong Kong are far less stringent than in China, as long as there are empty routes, you can take off at any time, and of course, you need to pay a lot of money to use the airport runway.

"Dad, then let's go back to Beijing first, and then go directly to London in a few days......"

Zhuang Rui turned around and said goodbye to Qin Haoran, this old man sent his son-in-law, Zhuang Rui felt a little unbearable.

"Well, go ahead, have a safe journey!"

Qin Haoran patted Zhuang Rui on the shoulder, Qin Haoran was still very relieved to be able to hand over his daughter to such a young talent, when he was Zhuang Rui's age, he still squandered the old man's money all day long, pursuing luxury cars and beauties, of course, Qin Haoran was not married.

After Zhuang Rui and Qin Xuan got on the plane, they waited for about half an hour, and He Shuang's voice sounded in the cabin, prompting Zhuang Rui to take off soon.

The plane slowly accelerated on the runway, looking at the scene outside the window that was constantly retreating, Zhuang Rui only felt that his body was light, the plane had already left the runway and pulled up, and the scenery on the ground was gradually getting smaller.

Unlike large airliners, this high-roller business jet is not very loud when it takes off, and it does not have that feeling of swollen ears.

"Mr. Zhuang, now it has entered the altitude of 12,000 meters, has turned on the automatic navigation system, and now the speed is 850 kilometers, and it is expected to arrive at Beijing Airport in three hours......"

After entering the high-altitude flight, the plane became stable, at least Zhuang Rui felt that it was not much different from taking a large passenger plane, looking at the white clouds outside the window, Zhuang Rui was slightly excited, this is his own plane, himself, is the owner of this plane!

Peng Fei felt very good, walked back and forth in the cabin a few times, and said: "Brother Zhuang, this plane is much stronger than the transport plane, yes, you don't spend your money unjustly......

Zhuang Rui glared at Peng Fei angrily when he heard this, and scolded with a smile: "Get out of the way, you kid will take the life of the transport plane, I have nothing to spend money to buy guilt?"

"Sister Tianya, how do you feel the stability of this plane, and if it flies to Europe and other countries, how will it perform?"

Zhuang Rui just feels good about himself, but the real performance still has to ask the professionals, Peng Fei's words are not serious, that guy can play with guns and knives, of course, the plane can also be driven, but no one may dare to sit.

"Mr. Zhuang, for a small passenger aircraft, the performance of this aircraft is already very superior, even if it encounters a general light air current, it will not affect it, and it is similar ......to the flight I used to work on."

"Yes, although the fuel load of this type of aircraft cannot support intercontinental flights, as long as you choose the right refueling point, it is still easy to fly to European countries......"

Although Tianya and Liuli are also taking a private jet for the first time, but after five or six years of experience, they can still distinguish some subtle differences between the two planes.

Turning on the LCD TV on the plane, Zhuang Rui found that Raytheon had actually installed a satellite TV receiver, which could accept TV stations from dozens of countries.

Zhuang Rui, Qin Xuanbing and two flight attendants chatted and watched TV, two or three hours passed quickly, and under He Shuang's prompting, several people fastened their seat belts, and the plane began to land.

When landing is very smooth, there is no imaginary bumps, He Shuang in the airport under the guidance of the plane, very sophisticated parking the plane on the apron of Zhuang Rui lease, the "Xuanrui" of the first flight, is a complete success.

"He Shuang, contact this person, let's go to Paris the morning after tomorrow, and ask him to arrange the route and the airport to refuel along the way, you and Ding Hao will handle the specific matters......"

After the plane stopped, Zhuang Rui called He Shuang and Ding Hao over and handed them a business card, this person is a real power figure in civil aviation, Zhuang Rui just hooked up with him through Ouyang Jun a few days ago.

However, Zhuang Rui doesn't have so much effort to deal with these things, as long as it is related to the plane in the future, he is ready to hand it over to He Shuang and the two to deal with, who have you ever seen that big boss running around for the sake of private jet routes?

After saying this, Zhuang Rui asked Tian Ya and Liuli to prepare some food and fruits on the plane, and as long as it was on the airline's plane, the two of them could think of it and buy it back.

After explaining these things, Zhuang Rui took Qin Xuanbing and Peng Fei out of the car, Hao Long had already received a call from Zhuang Rui, and parked the car not far from the plane, saving Zhuang Rui the trouble of taking a taxi out of the airport.

At this point, Zhuang Rui felt a little superiority, and the money was spent...... It's not a loss.

After returning to his home in Beijing, Zhuang Rui went to see Chairman Ouyang again very seriously, but what made Ouyang Jun crazy was that Zhuang Rui came to him this time and asked him to help, Europe is not in circulation, Zhuang Rui asked Ouyang Jun to convert his 60 million into euros.

"These things look pretty good......"

Zhuang Rui looked at the information sent to him by Huangfu Yun, and his brows couldn't help frowning.

If you only look at the information, all the objects auctioned in this Paris auction can be called national treasures, from the calligraphy and paintings of celebrities in the past dynasties, to the porcelain and bronzes of the official kilns of the palace, Zhuang Rui's millions of euros are really not enough to see.

"Damn, the things that the foreign devils snatched, why did they let Lao Tzu spend money to buy them back......"

The more Zhuang Rui looked at it, the more angry he became, and he smashed a punch on the table indignantly, and his head began to spin, is there any way to mess up this auction?

"Protest, march, or put pressure on the Ministry of Foreign Affairs?"

Zhuang Rui shook his head, foreigners don't eat this set of fucking things, even if the Ministry of Foreign Affairs protests, they still won't take care of it, saying that the relationship between China and France has not been very good in recent years, long live the Sino-French friendship in the era of Charles de Gaulle, it has become a thing of the past.

After thinking about it for a long time, Zhuang Rui didn't come up with any clue, so he could only close the computer, and when the time came, take a step at a time, Zhuang Rui could only do it himself.

However, Zhuang Rui has no way and cannot stop whether some large domestic consortia will bid for Chinese cultural relics.
