Chapter 324: I Have a Request

Fang Mingyuan stayed in the Republic of Yakutia for another four days, and after visiting universities and some scientific research institutes in the city of Yakutsk, accompanied by Mikharoyl, they took a plane to Moscow on a clear and cloudless day. He was accompanied by Nikolaisky, deputy general director of the company Alrosa. Their off-road vehicles had already been taken to Moscow by another cargo plane a few hours earlier.

"Hey, good news, it's minus four degrees Celsius in Moscow, we're heading to the tropics," exclaimed the pilot as he poked his head out of the cockpit excitedly. It caused a lot of laughter from everyone in the plane. Indeed, the weather in Moscow is simply too good for the city of Yakutsk, where the minimum temperature at night is already close to minus 48 degrees Celsius, and the maximum temperature during the day is also more than minus 20 degrees

Fang Mingyuan grinned, but he didn't laugh, to be honest, he was still a little weak in his heart now. It was the first time he had taken a Tu-154, but he was no stranger to the name of the Tu-154, and the poor Polish president and his wife died in the crash of the Tu-154 in their previous life? Compared with the same type of aircraft of the same type of Boeing and Airbus, the Tu-154 was not only produced in smaller quantities, but also had a poor safety record.

The Tu-154 is a three-engine medium-range passenger aircraft developed by the Tupolev Experimental Design Bureau of the former Soviet Union. In those years in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization codename was called "careless". The same type of aircraft is the Boeing 727 of the United States and the Trident of the United Kingdom. The Tupolev Experimental Design Bureau was founded by the famous Soviet general engineer Andrei Nikolayevich Tupolev and is headquartered in Moscow, Russia. It was the design department of Soviet and Russian bombers, transport aircraft. Among the Shijie military aircraft, the well-known Tu-160 strategic bomber, also known as the variable-swept wing heavy supersonic strategic bomber. NATO's code name for it is "Pirate Flag", which was developed by the Tupolev Experimental Design Bureau.

In Fang Mingyuan's previous life, the famous Mu Nade Group exchanged 500 wagons worth 400 million yuan for four Soviet-made planes of this type.

Although Fang Mingyuan understands that the main reasons for this should be attributed to the Soviet Union's long period of bad and extreme weather, frequent flights, low-quality maintenance and human error, and rarely design flaws. But after all, there is only one human life, if you ...... it again

"Bah, bah, bah" Fang Mingyuan said secretly in his heart, "Tong Yan Wu Ji Tong Yan Wu Ji"

The plane quickly returned to stability, people unbuckled their seat belts and moved around the plane, and random flight attendants began to serve refreshments to the guests. Since there are not many passengers on the plane, and only half of the people are seated, there are plenty of food on the plane, and everyone can relax their appetite.

Fang Mingyuan held a cup of hot coffee, enjoying the hot air in his hands, while looking at the inside of the plane. It has to be said that the Soviet-made aircraft still has a big gap in terms of ride comfort compared with Boeing, McDonnell Douglas, and Airbus, the cabin seems to be relatively narrow, the cabin door is also narrow, and the position of the overhead luggage rack in the cabin is also very limited, giving people a sense of depression. And it can feel authentic, and the noise in the cabin is also louder.

However, Soviet-made airplanes are cheaper, 30 to 40 percent cheaper than the same model in Europe and the United States, which is a considerable amount, so some airlines in China also use Soviet-made passenger planes. However, since the collapse of the Soviet Union, as far as Fang Mingyuan knew in his previous life, due to the shortage of funds and the outflow of design personnel, the Tupolev Experimental Design Bureau has not produced any decent works for nearly ten years.

Buying a Soviet-made passenger plane, although it is cheap, but the safety and comfort are almost meaningless, but buying a Soviet-made cargo plane is more recognized by Fang Mingyuan. For example, the Soviet Union's An-124, the largest strategic heavy transport aircraft in the 80s, broke the original record for load height created by the American C-5 transport aircraft. In addition, the An-124 has more than 20 shijie flight records recognized by the International Aviation Federation (FIA). Its load can be up to one hundred and fifty tons

Fang Mingyuan sat at the window, looking at the clouds outside the window and thinking wildly.

Nikolasky sat not far behind him, also looking at the clouds outside the window, Nikolasky was thinking about his next move, Fang Mingyuan planned to eat all the diamond raw ore of the Alrosa Company with a market price of nearly one billion US dollars at a five-percent discount, before getting on the plane, he had already sent back to the headquarters of the Alrosa Company, the six-fold price has basically been recognized by Chepchugov and Ramblas, but the five-fold price, for them, I'm afraid it's a little unbearable. However, Nikolasky had already hinted to them that Fang Mingyuan was willing to compensate them in other ways. I guess those people in the company's headquarters are having a headache right now.

However, Nikolaysky is not worried about anything, as long as they hear that Fang Mingyuan is willing to give five percent of the total price as a kickback, then all the problems will disappear, those greedy old foxes, it is impossible not to know which choice is more cost-effective for them As for the due income that Alrosa Company lost, what does it have to do with them, anyway, it is public money

With this large order, the head of the Alrosa company obviously put pressure on Waldzev, and his wife brought his son to the door to make amends, but the other party reluctantly accepted it, and the strangers near the house also disappeared, as if everything was back to normal.

But Nikolaysky knew very well in his heart that this matter was not over, and that it was no secret in Moscow that soon after the dust settled, Waldzev would show his fangs again. Unless he can find a bigger backer than him, or if he goes to prison and causes him a lot of headaches, he will definitely take action sooner or later......

But it doesn't matter, by the time he can do it, I'm afraid he will already be in the other hemisphere, although the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation is strong, but it is impossible to reach the United States.

Nikolaysky was thinking about it, but there was a different person beside him, Fang Mingyuan patted him on the shoulder and said: "I heard that you have a treasure trove in the Soviet Union, which is in the Kremlin, which contains countless gems collected by the tsars of the past dynasties, can you let me see it?"
