Chapter 19: Becoming an Official (Asking for Collections, Recommendations...)
Lin Shenhe's companions also woke up, of course they didn't know that the reason why they slept for so long was deliberately arranged by Wen Desi, so that they could explain that they were brought from Gansu to Sichuan. In addition, Wen Desi also dropped their airship to the ground, and moved more than 800 kilometers to the southeast to a desert near Wuwei, anyway, they couldn't figure out the place at that time, as long as it was a desert.
No matter what, they are grateful to Wen Desi and Xingke Company who saved their lives.
Their escape from Europe was a sudden incident in itself, and now they can't think of a good place to go, at least Lin Shenhe definitely has nowhere to go. After seeing the construction scene of Xingke Company and learning a little about the company's situation, Wen Desi only slightly showed the intention of soliciting, and all these people agreed to work in Xingke.
Among the crowd at that time, this group of people could be regarded as social elites and high-level intellectuals.
Needless to say, Lin Shenhe studied at the Royal Police Academy and the Saint-Cyr Military Academy, and he was able to do police affairs. The mechanical side is also very good, for guns, cars and other weapons and even new things such as airships, not only do they play quite slippery, but they also design and manufacture their own.
His baby sister Lin Shenxi didn't learn so much, she just specialized in agriculture. Several of Lin Shenhe's friends are also international students in Europe, one is named Li Chiqi, who graduated from the University of Berlin, majoring in steam engines and train manufacturing, and is also good at cars. He had a cousin named Zhang Yu, who studied telegraph and telecommunications. These two siblings are also overseas Chinese in Thailand, and Lin Shenhe have been friends since childhood.
The other, named Li Yifan, is also a graduate of the Saint-Cyr Military Academy, majoring in artillery. There is also a man named Wang Tengpeng, who graduated from the University of Hamburg in Germany, majoring in shipbuilding. Both of these guys are overseas Chinese in Nanyang.
The Italian Yanmar who was abducted by Lin Shenhe, named Diana del Piero, and the last girl, named Rusya Li, are both graduates of Venice Business School, and the two are classmates and best friends, both studying finance.
The origin of this Rusya is more bizarre, she is a half-breed, and her Han name is Li Siya. Her father is an overseas Chinese in Nanyang, but her mother is the illegitimate daughter of an Italian nobleman, half of whom is of Chinese descent. At that time, the Chinese were very discriminated against in Europe and the United States, and although they were mixed-race, they were not recognized by their families. When Rusya was 10 years old, her father was killed in a shipwreck, and her mother died of illness just after graduating from college last year.
At this time, her mother's relatives, who were originally indifferent, came to the door and asked her to obey the family arrangement and get engaged to a young master from another family. Rusya is very independent, and of course she doesn't want to be a tool for peace. Fortunately, she got acquainted with Lin Shenhe's gang through her best friend Diana last year, and several girls hit it off at first sight, and the relationship was quite good, and they also recognized Lin Yanei as a righteous brother, especially Li Yifan and Wang Tengpeng, who pursued her as a goddess. So, she took the opportunity to hide in Germany, and when Lin Shenhe escaped, she also got on the thief ship by the way.
The rest of Lin Shenhe's group was quickly arranged, and there were only two beautiful ladies from Italy left, who were not arranged for a while because of professional problems. But Wen Deji didn't want to raise idlers, and he quickly thought of the use of the two.
So, Wen Deji asked, "Miss Diana, Miss Rusya...... Both of you are studying finance, and it just so happens that I am now going to open a bank, would you like to work in my bank?"
"Bank? That's no problem, my family is a bank, and I've been helping ......at home since I was a child," Rusya frowned, and said, "However, please call my Chinese name Li Siya......" This mixed-race girl has both the advantages of the East and the West, with a Western-style tall figure and facial contours, oriental-style delicate skin and fine facial features, and is a very eye-catching beauty.
"Oh, the bank? I haven't done it, but I can try. Diana and Lin Shenhe discussed it in a low voice and agreed. This Miss Diana is a typical Mediterranean beauty, with an angelic face and a devilish body, much like a certain Italian supermodel in later generations.
This bank is not the bank in Tianjin that specializes in pitting people, but a bank that Wen Desi temporarily took up and prepared to open in Sichuan. After learning about the majors of the two girls, he suddenly thought that he still lacked a financial institution, especially now that he has mastered the Sichuan-Han Railway Leasing Bureau, he needs a bank to store and transfer funds.
..................................................................
June 25, 19o6, Baima Industrial Zone, Aircraft Factory Construction Site.
Since he and Mr. Xiliang got online, Xingke Company has become much more convenient to do things, and has bought a lot of land nearby. Now that most of the land in Hakuba Town has been bought, the name has been changed to "Hakuba Industrial Zone". This batch of land did not cost much money, and most of it was converted into shares of Weiyuan Iron and Steel Company.
In the western part of the industrial zone, there is a newly zoned construction site, which is the factory area of the planned aircraft factory.
Yes, Wendeji had long planned this aircraft manufacturing plant, which was originally intended to make airplanes, and later added the project of airships.
At first, he didn't even think about playing airships, because he always felt that only a helium-powered airship was an airship, and it was not safe to use hydrogen. And now it's very troublesome to get a lot of helium. Not to mention that China does not, except for the United States, the production of the whole world is ridiculously small, and most importantly, it is very inconvenient to transport, so he has no plans for this.
But after experiencing the miserable traffic conditions in Sichuan, he had to hit the airship again.
The highway has just been built from the industrial zone to Neijiang County, not to mention the railway, there is no shadow yet. As for the current planes, it's a joke, like a toy. Even if there is a golden thigh of the base, it will not be possible to make a qualified transport aircraft without a few years of driving, and even if it is made, the cost is unbearable.
To solve the problem of transportation in a short time, the only option left is the airship. However, this kind of thing is not available in China, and the best ones to play are France and Germany, and Wen Desi was about to send someone to Europe to buy it, but he didn't expect to pick up a Lin Shenhe back.
After asking Lin Shenhe, an expert, he learned that although the current airship is far more mature than the aircraft, it is still not officially operated. There is no official manufacturer at all, and the current airships are all made by fans themselves, not to mention the production conditions, which are not much better than those who build airplanes.
So Mr. Wen immediately dispelled the idea of buying an airship and prepared to make it himself.
The plans for the airship factory were ahead of the comparison, and now as well as laying the groundwork.
"Mr. Wen, you are still amazing. All of a sudden, there was an airship factory, and there was no Europe......" Lin Shenhe said happily.
Wen Desi shook his head: "I also have no way, is it difficult to do it...... Oh, did I show you the drawings?
Lin Shenhe said with admiration: "I've read it, I didn't expect Mr. Wen to study airships so much, those drawings of yours are really amazing, much more advanced than the one I built before." There are a lot of things that I didn't take into account, and you think about it too. ”
Wen Deji smiled and didn't speak.
Of course, it's more advanced, it's the airship of the 21st century. These sets of drawings are all Chinese-designed airships in the 21st century. Although this drawing has also been modified, removing equipment such as satellite positioning, radar, and computers, even the overall structure is far more mature than the current airship.
The largest of these is a 3o-ton rigid airship, which is shorter and flatter than a zeppelin, resembling a flattened rugby ball. The frontal section is also not circular, but a transverse oval, which is to reduce the effect of the side wind on navigation. It is a double vertical tail with a pair of pelvic fins below the vertical tail and a pair of canard wings in front, which greatly increases maneuverability.
Now this airship is named "Qingyun-1" airship by Wen Desi, with a length of 11o meters, a width of 5o meters, a height of 25 meters, and an airbag volume of 9. 50,000 cubic meters, the pod is 25 meters long, 6 meters wide, 4 meters high, 52 tons empty, and the maximum load is 3o tons at a height of 2ooo meters. Each ship is estimated to cost 85ooo silver dollars. In addition, there are several smaller airships, ranging from the smallest 1 ton to 2o tons.
Wen Desi said: "Guanxi, this plant will be built in about 2 months, and I have already ordered the production equipment from the United States and Europe, and it can be sent to Shanghai in a month. This factory will be handed over to you in the future, and during this time, in addition to supervising the plant, you also have to digest the drawings well and formulate a reasonable process flow......"
"Got it, Mr. Wen, you can rest assured that I will do things......" Lin Shenhe is very confident, according to the plan, this can be said to be the most advanced and largest airship manufacturing plant in the world, and being able to be the leader here makes him feel very accomplished.
Wen Desi nodded, and then said gloomily: "Also, your playboy virtue has restrained me, I don't care how you used to play in Europe, but if you are still like before in China, I don't mind sending you to the Forbidden City to serve Lafayette......"
"Ah......" Lin Shenhe listened to the chrysanthemum tightly, and hurriedly said: "No, no, I will never attack my own people, rabbits don't eat the grass by the nest, I understand......"
...........................................................................
As soon as Wen Desi left the scene of the airship factory, Gu Xiaolu came with information.
"Mr. Wen, the Governor of Sichuan has sent someone here, please go back to the headquarters office as much as possible. Gu Xiaolu paused and said with a smile: "Mr. Wen, congratulations, you have been promoted!"
Wen Desi said with a nonchalant face: "Oh, isn't it the alternate Dao who has been approved...... There are more candidates for the Qing court than dogs, what's so unusual?"
The last time he went to Chengdu, Xiliang's master, who had already been crushed by sugar-coated shells, kindly reminded him: It is best to donate a candidate, although he is an "American", he is not afraid of those officials looking for trouble. But in the current xenophobic environment, it is more convenient to have a domestic official hat to do things, at least it will not be so hostile.
Wen Desi is dispensable for this, and he is not short of this money anyway, so he also asked Xiliang to buy an alternate Taoist identity by the way. As soon as Xiliang saw that it was Wende's heir, he gave an internal preferential price, and only charged 8,000 oceans, which is said to be half the price.
"No, no, no, it's not just an alternate...... It's really lacking!! ......you'll know when you come," Gu Xiaolu said mysteriously.
"Oh?" Wen Deji was a little curious, so he hurried back.
As soon as he entered the office, a middle-aged man stood up and said with a smile: "Congratulations to Lord Wen!!"
"Oh, it turned out to be Master Zhang, what's the happy event?" Wen Desi replied with a smile. This master is the one who bought the official, don't look at it as just a master, although the master of the Qing Dynasty governor of the yamen did not have a formal official position, but he had a lot of real power, and he was more bullish than the ordinary prefect of Zhizhou.
Master Zhang smiled reservedly, and handed a sandalwood box to Wen Dehe: "Hehe, Lord Wen, please see, this is the appointment letter of the governor......"
"Oh......" Wen Desi hurriedly opened the box, took out the letters inside, and was a little dumbfounded.
There are 3 texts in it, one is the appointment letter of the alternate Dao, which is not unusual, but the other 2 are very weighty. One is the letter of appointment of the General Office of the Sichuan Youth League Training, and the other is the letter of appointment of the Prime Minister of the Prospectus Bureau of the Sichuan-Han Railway Company.
