999 A bucket of bathwater sold for 500 million yuan (fourth update)
"I'm going, I'm finally here......" I heard the roar of the engine from afar, but it took more than an hour to see a building hidden in the depths of the Gobi Desert that had been lit up.
There is such a saying widely spread in the land of Bashu - look at the house, go to cry.
In this uninhabited Gobi Desert, the roar of the engine was heard twenty kilometers away, but it was only until now that he arrived here, and Yun Fei really wanted to cry.
"Mr. Yun, the conditions of the test site are poor, you Haihan ......" Qian Yiming, the person in charge of the engine high-altitude platform test site of the 810 Aero Engine Research Institute, is a thin middle-aged man in his forties, and he doesn't know if the wind and sand here are too big or what, but he looks older than Hou Mingrui, who is haggard, and he is about to catch up with Cheng and them from time to time.
"It's okay, there's hot water here, right? I'll take a shower first...... "For the depths of the Gobi Desert, Yun Fei didn't expect to have many good conditions at all. All he wanted was to take a warm shower and get a good night's sleep in bed......
"This ......" Hearing Yun Fei's request, Qian Yiming immediately became embarrassed.
Yun Fei was stunned for a moment, is it so difficult to take a hot bath? Could it be that you can take a cold shower on the Gobi Desert at night, where there are only a few degrees at night?
"Yun boy, don't embarrass Director Qian, the supply of materials here at the test site has to be transported by train every week, vegetables and fresh water are the most scarce materials...... Huang Qiaosong once stayed in the Gobi Desert in the northwest, so he naturally knew why Qian Yiming was embarrassed......
"Isn't it? There weren't more than a hundred people in the proving ground, and I just saw that there were quite a few young girls among the people who welcomed us. Don't they all take a bath? Yun Fei was stunned for a moment.
In the land of Bashu, there has never been a lack of water in this world. Even though he had heard that there was a shortage of water in the north, he often went to the headquarters in Beizhong and never encountered these problems, and there was hot water when the faucet was turned on.
"Pretty much. Because of the problem of funds, the special train to transport materials only comes once a week, and the base has more than 100 people, and the water transported by the train can only be used for a week, which has been the case since the establishment of this test site. Hou Mingrui said to Yun Fei lonely.
"And the girls in this proving ground. I can only get a basin of water to scrub my body every week. You can take a shower twice a month, and gay men, once a month, it's about the same, after all, the north is not as hot and humid as the south......"
Yun Fei was really stunned.
Xiang Li Lu and the others seem to have always washed once a day in the morning and evening. Even if there is no shower for a day. Or wash less than once and feel uncomfortable all day. It is unimaginable that you can only scrub your body with a little water every day like this, and it takes half a month to clean your body......
"Now the conditions are much better. In the eighties, don't even expect bathwater or something. Someone once joked that here you have to be prepared to take a bath three times in your life, once when you are born, it is a respect for life; When I get married, I want to make the most beautiful day of my life a perfect presentation; When he dies once, it is to let the king of Hades see more clearly, so as not to misjudge it into something else......" Although it is a joke, Qian Yiming said it very heavily.
If it was somewhere else, for the sake of Yun Fei's money as an investor, those responsible persons would definitely not hesitate to bring the water that everyone drank to Yun Fei to bathe. But Qian Yiming couldn't do such a thing. If he could do it, he would never be in charge of this place.
Hearing this, Yun Fei's heart tightened, such a thing, if he hadn't experienced it personally, would definitely be something he couldn't imagine......
Sighing secretly, he was about to say that this was it, but when he fell asleep first, a group of women poured in outside, a few carrying a large wooden barrel, and a young girl in gray and white overalls carried several buckets of steaming water into the corridor......
"Mr. Yun, the bath water is already hot......" A woman in her thirties, with a dark spot the size of a thumb on the left side of her face, said to Yun Fei with a smile.
Yun Fei was stunned for a moment, and when he saw this girl, Huang Qiaosong's eyes suddenly flickered, but no one noticed this problem.
Doesn't it mean that there is a lack of water? Where does this water come from?
"Xiao Huang, what are you doing here?" For the person who came, Hou Mingrui obviously knew it.
"Director Hou, Boss Yun is our big rich man, if there is no investment in his funds, our Yanhuang may be like the turbofan eight back then, China has lost twenty years, and it can't lose another twenty years......" Huang Yiying smiled and said to Hou Mingrui, "Mr. Yun, go, this barrel will be put in your room, our conditions here are simple, it was originally an abandoned testing ground, because our Yanhuang project was reactivated after engine tests here, and the sisters love to be clean, So I was only able to wash it in a wooden barrel ......."
"Eldest sister, forget about taking a bath. Everyone is like this, and I'm nothing special about being a big man. Anyway, I haven't taken a shower for a few days, and now I'm used to it......" Nima, the words are so clear, this bucket of water is definitely more valuable than golden soup!
Without determining whether the Yanhuang engine will be able to match their aircraft, it is absolutely impossible to make any promises.
"Xiaoying, what are you doing here? It's impossible to determine whether this engine can fit their plane......" Huang Qiaosong, who had always looked complicated, quietly wiped his tears while everyone was not paying attention, and said to Huang Yiying.
"Mr. Yun, no matter what the final result is, as the first customer of Yanhuang Engine, we should treat you well, rest assured to wash it, these waters are the combat storage water that the sisters usually saved. Sisters, am I right? Huang Yiying ignored Huang Qiaosong, but still said to Yun Fei with a smile.
Perhaps it was the tempering of the difficult environment, in this woman who was not beautiful and even a little ugly, Yun Fei saw an optimism that made his heart palpitate.
"Yes, Mr. Yun, hurry up and wash it, the water will be cold in a while......" Several other women also replied with a smile, and a girl with a dimple on the left side of her face pulled Yun Fei directly into the room......
In the end, Yun Fei still jumped into the barrel that was only half filled with water, and sat in it just to submerge to his chest and soak in the most expensive hot bath in his life......
"Ladies and gentlemen, I don't want to say anything else. Regardless of whether this engine can meet the use of Yanlong Commercial Aircraft, for this engine project, I will be responsible for the research and development of civil engines! After taking a bath, Yun Fei was taken to the cafeteria of the test site, where the entire test site was waiting for him.
Give him a welcome party.
The base is short of materials, although there is no shortage of staple foods, but green vegetables are basically difficult to see here. It's not that you can't get there, but in a place where the train has to go for a day or two, and you have to go through guò or something for several days to get there, any fresh green vegetables will spoil.
Unless transported by helicopter.
However, this is a project that is supported by the embezzlement of funds from other projects by Factory 132, and the research funds are extremely tight, so it is natural to save money.
However, at this welcome dinner, the test site still took out their best food, and made seven or eight dishes, luncheon meat, potato stewed beef, pork stewed cabbage, which Yun Fei usually didn't even want to touch......
Hearing Yun Fei's words, Ma Fengshan and Cheng suddenly glanced at each other from time to time, and they both saw doubts in each other's eyes. At the 810 Research Institute in Rongcheng, Yun Fei didn't say that.
Suddenly, there was a burst ......of warm applause in the entire canteen. There were even some girls cheering, with Yun Fei, the big financier, injecting funds, they want to build China's own engine, there will be absolutely no problem.
"Perhaps, this is the worst investment decision of my life, and since you are willing to dedicate your youth to this project, I don't care about such a small amount of research funding. Before I came, Director Hou Mingrui told me that this project might require 420 million to 500 million yuan in research funding, and as you may know, this money is nothing to me. But for this project, for those of you who are really engaged in technology with all your dedication to the country, I think it's very crucial. Yun Fei said with a stern face.
500 million is really nothing.
As he said, these funds, for this project, are a qiē.
"I am a businessman, a businessman who chases profits. Originally, from the perspective of pursuing profits, I should not have said such things and made such promises at this time. However, seeing you, I had to change my original intention. Instead of investing money in Ukraine, I should invest this money in our own research team in the country! Sister Huang, you have successfully sold my 500 million funds with a bucket of water, you are the most successful marketers! After Yun Fei's words were finished, the people below immediately burst into laughter.
A bucket of bath water actually sells for 500 million, which can be said to be the most expensive bath water in the world.
Yun Fei's words made all the researchers and even the logistics staff at the test site excited. Wine is like not wanting money, especially the sister paper of that gang, when Yun Fei promised to introduce them to the object, and they were all the diamond kings of his Jiuyi Research Institute, they attracted rounds of drinking.
Until the end, Yun Fei himself didn't know how he got back to the room. (To be continued......)
