In modern society, in August, it is a hot summer.

Xu Yuan went to Nanchang, which is not far from Jiujiang, and came to the very famous local Hongdu Aircraft Manufacturing Company to visit on the spot.

Hongdu Aircraft Manufacturing Company attaches great importance to him, and the director of the factory personally greets him, accompanied by a number of important management personnel.

With Xu Yuan, I visited the company's most advanced pulsating aircraft production line, saw the semi-finished state of the 'Hercules-5' twin-engine propeller transport aircraft, and had professional engineers to introduce the performance parameters of the aircraft to Xu Yuan.

The length is 19.8 meters.

The wingspan is 22.5 meters.

A large number of carbon fiber structural materials and 3D printing technology are used, so the empty weight of the aircraft is only 18 tons, which is extremely lightweight.

When the standard load capacity is five tons, the maximum range is 3,500 kilometers.

At a maximum load of ten tons, the maximum range is only 1,600 kilometers.

If it is used as a passenger aircraft, it can accommodate up to 50 people.

The engine can be driven by ordinary biodiesel, with good power and fuel consumption, high engine reliability, and an overhaul interval of up to 5,000 hours.

As for the cost, as a mature and reliable civilian product with a low technical content, this 'Hercules-5' transport aircraft, the price needs to be 15 million / frame, it can be said that it is a very expensive big toy, even if it is very rich, you have to consider it when buying, unless you are a billionaire with a net worth of more than 1 billion billion, you don't have to care.

But Xu Yuan placed an order to purchase 1,000 at one time!

And when the production task of 1,000 aircraft is completed, Hongdu Aircraft Company will have to package and sell the production line to Xu Yuan, including the relevant aircraft manufacturing technology, so that the Magic Group can also produce this aircraft without any restrictions.

The price of the unit price aircraft has dropped to 12 million.

The production line needs 30 billion.

Xu Yuan paid a total of 15 billion, but he had to pay in fifteen installments, one billion per month.

In that case, it is impossible to recover the cost, so it can only be put in the Ming world, becoming the main aircraft of air transportation, and occasionally doing passenger transport work part-time, that is, logistics, passenger flow.

But a thousand transport planes.

Assuming that each aircraft runs once a day on average, it is a cargo capacity of 5,000 tons.

If you run twice a day, it is the ability of tens of thousands of tons of materials to be transferred more than 3,000 kilometers away in one day.

Or send 50,000 heavily armed Xu Jiajun to the heart of the enemy thousands of kilometers away, and then launch a fatal blow, the military deterrent effect will be unimaginably great, so that those forces that offend Xu Jiazhuang must retreat to a very far place in order to barely sleep peacefully.

This is the strategic deterrence that comes with transport aircraft.

With this batch of transport aircraft, the development of Daming will definitely get faster and faster, like a tiger with wings, and bring a wave of efficiency revolution at the level of transportation, bringing some new changes.

It's just that...... One hundred and fifty billion, although it feels very cool to spend money, and it feels very cool to be treated as a big dog VIP and thoughtful service, but there is no doubt that this is a huge amount of money, even if it is interest-free for fifteen installments, you have to slowly save money to make so much money.

Besides.

Airplanes are big oil burners, every time they take off and land a sortie, they have to consume more than 10 tons of biodiesel, and a thousand planes, flying like this every day, they have to consume tens of thousands of tons of biodiesel every day, more than 3 million tons a year, which is a rather terrifying and exaggerated quantity.

It significantly exceeds Xujiazhuang's current biodiesel synthesis capacity.

The synthesis of biodiesel, and have to consume a lot of food, resulting in food supply problems may occur, so can not build too many biodiesel synthesis plants, unless the output of food exceeds hundreds of millions of tons, more than one billion tons, then it is to consume hundreds of millions of tons of food, to produce tens of millions of tons of biodiesel, for the industrial development of Xujiazhuang, inject the blood of industry, then it is very cost-effective, even if the cost of this way will be a bit high, and more troublesome.

It is better to buy a batch of oil production equipment, send people to the Middle East region of the Ming world, and then drill multiple oil wells to extract oil underground.

You must know that the oil buried in the Middle East is very shallow, some oil fields can spray oil as long as they drill more than ten meters, dozens of meters, the yield is high, the oil quality is very good, and then take these petroleum raw materials, refining, you can get gasoline, diesel, heavy oil, tar, paraffin, asphalt and other by-products, all of which have commercial value, and some by-products have entered thousands of households, and are extremely widely used.

Of course, the most important thing is the cost.

The cost of oil exploitation under the desert of the Middle East is very low, only a dozen or dozens of dollars per barrel, while biodiesel requires more than two tons of grain and oil to synthesize one ton, and the comprehensive cost is more than six or seven hundred and one barrels.

That's a dozen times different.

Therefore, it is still very necessary to exploit oil, and biodiesel is too luxurious, and Xu Yuan feels a little unbearable.

What's more, the consumption of oil has increased.

Coal consumption has increased.

On the side of the Ming world, the concentration of carbon dioxide in the air will also increase significantly, thereby bringing about the greenhouse effect, offsetting the impact of the Xiaoice Age, allowing the temperature to continue to rise, curbing the trend of getting colder and colder, it is best to accelerate industrialization, emit more carbon dioxide, do not consider energy conservation and emission reduction at all, the luxury is luxury, and let the aviation industry, rapid development, near each estate, build at least a medium-sized airport, allow' The Hercules-5' takes off and lands and increases the number of the aircraft to 3,000, 5,000, and tens of thousands, which will definitely bring great convenience and become more prosperous and lively.

Shook his head.

Get rid of the messy thoughts in your head.

Xu Yuan said to Director Xie beside him: "Director Xie, I am very satisfied with the production efficiency of your side, the after-sales service, and I hope you can do your best, the aircraft is bought for use, not placed in the warehouse as a decoration, and will play a great role in the future, so the engine spare parts, landing gear accessories, all kinds of vulnerable parts, also have to supply me with a batch, the price hopes to be cheaper, you also see my style, said that the quantity is very large, it must be very large, not to run the train flickering." ”

"Of course, of course, the price of parts, I will give you the cost price, do not make your money, promise that the aircraft can be used at a high intensity for more than 30 years, except for any problems, just come to us, the factory is here, and we can't run away."

In the face of this big dog, Director Xie hurriedly packed the ticket, and the conditions he came up with were even more generous.

No way, in this era, it is becoming more and more difficult to engage in entities.

Young people are reluctant to get married, a large number of salted fish lie flat, which leads to sluggish consumption, shrinking year by year, although the foreign market can get some orders, but also the involution is particularly powerful, those domestic counterparts, but also do not roll you to death, very crazy.

At this time, the importance of large customers is very high, especially Xu Yuan, a big super dog, a one-time purchase of 1,000 'Hercules-5', which means that the assembly line will run at full load for three years, solving the problem of paying wages to tens of thousands of workers in the next three years.

Now a contract of intent for maintenance has been reached, which means that in the next 30 years, there will be thousands of workers who can keep their jobs by supplying spare parts and get relatively high wages, and the future will suddenly be stable.

Of course, if you are a little more greedy, if you can get more orders, it will be more suitable, and it will be better for the future of this aircraft factory.

After thinking about it, Director Xie said to Xu Yuan: "Mr. Xu, I don't know if you are not interested in unmanned transport aircraft, if you are interested, we can transform the" Hercules -5 ", cancel the pilot space, change to unmanned intelligent control, so that the volume of the transport aircraft is reduced by at least 1/5, and this piece of weight loss can make the standard load range of "Hercules -5" increase to 5,500 kilometers, fuel consumption is significantly reduced, and the speed will be faster. Hercules-5' manned version, saving about 40%, in actual use, let a manned transport aircraft, with five, ten unmanned transport aircraft, so that a manned aircraft with the equivalent of several sorties, more than a dozen sorties of cargo, efficiency improved many times. ”

"Drones smell so good?"

Xu Yuan's eyes lit up.

The 40% reduction in operating costs, a statistic that cannot be ignored, made him excited.

And because of the castration of the manned function, it can be simplified in many aspects, only a load is protruded, safety and nothing need to be considered, fuel consumption is reduced, efficiency is improved, and it can only be described in a good word.

"Director Xie, how much does such an unmanned transport aircraft cost, will it be cheaper?" Xu Yuan asked.

"The cost can be compressed to 10 million yuan, and it is unlikely to be lower." Director Xie said.

"If I want to purchase 3,000 aircraft, can the purchase price be reduced to 8 million aircraft, if not, forget it, I will send someone to other aircraft factories to inquire about the situation." Xu Yuandao.

"Yes, you can! Since the purchase volume is so large, it is completely okay to reduce it to 8 million, but we have to see the money first, and then start to transform the production line, and forget it if there is no money. Director Xie said.

"Don't worry, you finish the production task at hand first, and I will continue to place orders later, after all, my money is basically spent now, and I have to save money for a while." Xu Yuan shrugged.

"Okay, we will work overtime to try to receive orders for unmanned transport aircraft as soon as possible."

Director Xie immediately nodded and promised.

But he didn't approve of Xu Yuan's pretending to be poor in his heart.

Even he has long known that this Xu Yuan next to him is an extremely low-key super-rich man, with a net worth far exceeding 100 billion, and it is even easier to take out tens of billions of cash, as long as he is willing to borrow from the bank, he will immediately have a strong ability to pay.

Quality customers.

This is the best quality customer.

Created the Magic Group from scratch and developed into a behemoth in just a few years.

The land + house + factory in the Magic City, the value of these hardware, the bank's valuation is more than 200 billion, and it may be even higher.

Both Android and Apple are available. 】

But he only borrowed 700 billion funds from the bank, and then he was extremely conservative, saying that he was unwilling to continue to borrow money, and repeatedly revealed that he wanted to repay the loan in advance, which made the bank very helpless and angry, thinking that this guy must have a problem with his head, and he didn't want a large amount of cash in front of him, and he didn't want the opportunity for rapid expansion of a good company, so he really couldn't figure out what he wanted.

In addition, the operation of the Magic City is also a mystery, and the products produced such as radios, televisions, and game consoles can actually be sold, and the sales seem to be good, and the research and development costs can be recovered.

The really profitable business is selling jewelry and clothes, organic rice, wood and furniture, all kinds of daily necessities, and other messy things, like a large grocery store, but it creates nearly 200 billion yuan in revenue every year, and can properly rank among the top 500 in China.

As for profits, there should be two or three hundred billion.

Just look at the various large expenses of this Xu Yuan Xu Boss, the relevant institutions and departments, and even some people wonder if this Xu Yuan is similar to those male protagonists, who got some kind of wealth system and gave him a lot of funds in vain, otherwise it can't be explained how he used so little income to make such a big career and pay off his debts so healthily, which is shrouded in a lot of mysteries.

If it weren't for the fact that the number of employees and their families in the magical city exceeded the 100,000 mark, tens of thousands of high-paying jobs were created, the unemployment rate in China was lowered, a lot of good things were done, and taxes were paid honestly, and there was no tax evasion.

Otherwise, Boss Xu, who is a big dog, would have been investigated by relevant agencies a long time ago.

But Xu Yuan's thoughts in his heart are that he has bought thousands of more transport planes, and the oil in the deserts of the Middle East is also planned to be exploited, as well as the Chilean copper mine project, etc., and the stalls have obviously spread out a lot, and I don't know how many hundreds of millions will be spent.

Not to mention the investment plans in the field of science and technology on this side of modern society.

Money, money, money!

Everywhere there is a need to spend money.

The income earned is insufficient, which makes people feel anxious and helpless.

In the end, we can only calm down, deal with and solve problems little by little, and be optimistic and optimistic, not too anxious, otherwise it will disrupt the rhythm of development in all aspects.

The next day.

Xu Yuan returned to the Magical City and quickly began to make various arrangements, or make reforms.

For example, the first important reform, that is, the de-wage reform, in the future, employees in the magical city will no longer pay wages, but will be calculated by salary points - of course, it is okay to continue to receive wages, but salary points can receive 20% more, which is equivalent to a salary increase of two percent, and when necessary, each employee has an exchange amount for cash from salary points, ranging from 10,000 to 100,000.

Then in the magical city, the salary point can buy any goods, to solve more than 90% of the needs of individuals, if most of the employees, can accept the salary point arrangement, Xu Yuan in his hands, at least two or three hundred billion more activity funds per year, which is equivalent to a lot of cash out of thin air, the price is that Xu Yuan needs to increase his efforts, from the Ming world, to carry more materials.
