Chapter 904: Flying the plane
"Become a nobleman?"
"Can you solve these problems?"
Gu Xiu was stunned, and then thought that this was not a single nobleman that everyone often said, but a nobleman with a title.
"Yes." Joan nodded:
"Whether it is Gaul or Spain, or we Helan, there are noble titles, and most nobles are hereditary."
"Being an aristocrat also has a lot of privileges, including inheritance rights and land tax relief."
"Especially our Helan, after becoming a nobleman, the land tax is not high, and the inheritance tax after the hereditary title is also very low."
"So what we talked about before, if we can get a knighthood and become a nobleman recognized by the royal family, then many problems can be solved."
These words made Gu Xiu interested.
But......
Just as he was about to ask how to become a nobleman, he saw Joan shake his head:
"But it's a pity that Helan hasn't been a nobleman for many years, and it's very difficult to get a nobleman, especially now, when there are more and more nobles."
"Basically, unless you have made a great contribution to your country and have been highly recognized by the royal family and the prime minister, it is basically impossible to become a nobleman."
These words made Gu Xiu suddenly can't help but roll his eyes.
So.
What did he say?
Isn't that the same as not saying it?
Or......
This guy just wants to talk to himself Versailles, he is a prince?
However, Gu Xiudao didn't care too much.
Whether it's buying a castle or an island, it's just a hobby, if you have it, if you don't have it, forget it, Gu Xiu won't pursue it too much.
Let alone.
In fact, if you really want to buy an island, Gu Xiu will go directly to an unclaimed island and be done, choose the local policy, and directly incorporate it as his private territory.
Theoretically, there is no such thing as a mess.
After walking around the castle again, Gu Xiu slept in his room all night.
There is one thing to say.
After sleeping all night, Gu Xiu felt only one.
So so.
It's really so-so.
After all, living in an ancient ruins is not as comfortable as imagined.
Especially because of the need to protect the appearance of the building, there are no large floor-to-ceiling windows that are popular today, and even because of the peculiarities of that era, the thick castle walls were built to protect security.
It gives the feeling of living inside a turtle shell.
The only thing that made me feel comfortable was the next morning, when the sun was shining down and looking out of the window into the greenery of the castle.
"It turns out that I like this forest, not this old house." Gu Xiu muttered to himself.
Next, Gu Xiu, accompanied by Prince Yoan and his wife, enjoyed breakfast together.
After breakfast, the three of them set off immediately.
Make a beeline for Prince Joan's airline.
It is worth mentioning that although Princess Marbel is pregnant, she still insists on accompanying her husband, and even took the initiative to bring up a lot of topics halfway to avoid embarrassment and coldness.
I have to admit it.
This woman is indeed not simple.
Even more than Prince Joan, she is better at leading the conversation, and is very sociable, as if she can easily get closer to everyone.
Not to mention anything else, just this ability, Gu Xiu couldn't help but sigh.
It's no wonder that people were able to get to know so many well-known tasks, and even later became the CEO of Mandela's international company.
Of course.
Gu Xiu naturally would not refuse the contact of the other party, anyway, he was very interested in cooperating with Prince Yoan, so he was naturally happy to talk and laugh with the other party.
Not much.
The car arrived at Prince Yoan's airline, which is not large, but after all, it is affiliated with Royal Airlines, and although the route is single, it is a popular route.
Obviously, it's also because of this that a lot of companies want to take it into their pockets.
Since he was famously brought by Gu Xiu to experience flying a plane, it was naturally impossible to keep an eye on the company, so the three of them didn't stay in the company for long, they just simply said hello, took Gu Xiu for a casual visit, and went directly to the practice venue.
Due to the sluggish business, BUZZ Airlines has also opened an aircraft leasing service.
And leased aircraft.
Basically, they are some of the planes in the prince's own collection.
From this, it can be seen that BUZZ Airlines is really having a hard time now, otherwise, Yoan would not have taken out all the planes in his collection for rent.
But.
Gu Xiu didn't care too much about this, he was more concerned about a bunch of private collection of planes in Yoan.
Looking at the eight different planes of the people parked in the hangar, Gu Xiu understood for the first time how much gold the title of the prince of the other party was.
Think about what you know about the rich second generation playing?
Luxury cars, watches and influencers.
But the prince is playing with airplanes!
Of course, this is actually related to the difference between home and abroad, it is not so simple to fly a plane casually in China, and it is relatively more convenient overseas.
"Have you ever flown an airplane before?" After Joan showed off his collection, he asked Gu Xiu.
Gu Xiu shook his head.
He originally wanted to say that he had played three men and one dog, experienced everything from airships to gliding, from Valkyrie helicopters to Tiansha fighter jets, and even won gold medals in all the events of flying.
But after thinking about it, it's better not to be ugly.
"If you haven't flown an airplane before, you need to learn from scratch, and it's best to use professional instruments to simulate flights, and only after you are familiar with and understand the simulator can you learn further."
"As for learning, it's some theoretical knowledge, to be honest, a lot of the content is relatively boring, but it's very important."
"Especially before taking off, the first thing you need to know is what the plane relies on to fly and what kind of control it relies on."
"But we're not going to learn that now."
"I'll teach you the way I learned to airplanes."
"I'll teach you how to check your own plane, this is a very, very important thing, every pilot, no matter what his level is, but before taking off, he must be very careful and strict to check, which is responsible for his own safety."
Gu Xiu naturally nodded.
It can be seen that Yoan is indeed an avid airplane enthusiast, which makes Gu Xiu understand that the three children of the Helan royal family have all liked to fly airplanes since childhood.
Even before the rebirth of the future life, the prince, who had become a king, would participate in flying once a week.
But.
It is precisely because of the existence of such a hobby that Yoan did not take Gu Xiu through any conventional learning process, but directly planned to take Gu Xiu to a flight that he said would fly.
After all, Gu Xiu was a child, and he was also a child without any flying experience, so what Yoan prepared for him was a single-engine fixed-wing light aircraft.
This small all-over red aircraft, made in the 80s of the last century, is a light aircraft that is very beginner to fly, slow, lightweight, and has excellent gliding maneuverability.
Even if you run out of fuel in mid-air, it's enough time to find a safe place to start landing.
Gu Xiu was full of interest in this kind of completely unfamiliar thing, not to mention that Yoan's teachings were also very interesting.
He didn't talk about any messy theoretical knowledge at the beginning like an ordinary flight instructor, but directly pulled out a tube of oil from the mailbox and taught Gu Xiu how to judge the quality of the oil.
I don't know if I don't know this, there is a lot of knowledge, not only to distinguish the quality, but even to see if there is a layer to prevent water from seeping in.
Immediately afterwards, I tested the height of the fuel tank to see whether the oil volume was sufficient, personally felt the tail lifting control, left and right control, and learned the basic principle through actual operation.
This is followed by deceleration control, tires, propellers, engine cooling windows, aircraft speed gauges, box evaporation testers, and so on.
I don't understand anything.
But after watching it for a while, Gu Xiu found out.
It's actually very simple, and it's not even too technically difficult.
"It seems that your learning ability is very good, now that you have checked it and know the general thing, then let's have a test flight next!"
Yoan was very talkative in this interest, and after seeing that Gu Xiu had already understood the basic information, he couldn't wait to push the small plane onto the runway with tools.
Next.
It's time to take off!
