Chapter 781 Civil Aviation

Ten hours after the newspaper was issued, two 'copies' of the newspaper were placed on the imperial case of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

In the past two days, the newspapers of the Ocean Group have become thicker again, and there are as many as 60 pages in both issues!

Yesterday's newspaper focused on the new financial system and the changes in Luzhou Bank.

Today's newspaper is mainly an introduction to the characteristics of various spiritual materials - new spiritual materials have come out, and others must know the characteristics of the new spiritual materials, and so on.

However, what amazed the emperor of the Ming Dynasty even more was that it was 150,000 kilometers away from the Dayang Group in a straight line, but this time it took only nine hours for the fighter jets to deliver the newspaper from the Dayang Group.

But it was said that at the auction more than a month ago, the Ming Dynasty had obtained a total of one aircraft carrier, eight fighter planes, and 15 mechas.

In addition, 50 propeller aircraft were purchased from the Ocean Group, and of course the purchase was completely new technology.

For more than a month, the aircraft carrier did not return, but was trained with the Ocean Group. According to the plan, it will set sail in these two days.

But today, because the two successive newspapers of the Dayang Group are very important, it is not enough to let the fighter pilots who have just completed their training 'train once'.

The results were stunning. In nine hours, he ran from the Ocean Group to the imperial capital of the Ming Dynasty.

"World...... It's a little small!" The Emperor sighed with emotion, and then opened the newspaper and browsed it. But the more I looked at it, the more shocked I became.

"Five tens of billions of high-grade spirit stones...... the emperor's heart trembled.

Money is not everything, but ...... More often than not, this sentence can be ignored.

At least in the Emperor's view, the state could not function without money. This is the lubricant of the Empire!

Practice the four elements: wealth and wealth, wealth is the first!

Compared with the phrase "money is not omnipotent", the emperor prefers another sentence: the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit!

And ninety percent of this 'profit' is wealth and money.

Yes, we all understand that money is not everything, but farmers farming, businessmen running around, and officials are corrupt, isn't it for money?

Before the industrial development, all the taxes of the Ming Dynasty were comprehensive, and only the numbers on the books were counted, and it was only five billion high-grade spirit stones.

These five billion are the sum and the book figures. But in the end, it was summed up in the imperial capital, which was actually less than 1.5 billion.

The 1.5 billion will also have to train masters, troops, officials, etc., and in the end, the treasury can leave 50 million, which will be regarded as a bumper harvest year. Sometimes it has to be posted upside down.

In addition, the wealth from the country's tax revenue will not be uniformly high-grade spirit stones, but medium-grade spirit stones and low-grade spirit stones.

The wealth of 50 billion high-grade spirit stones is enough to serve as a lubricant for the entire known world.

So much wealth is enough to leverage the whole world.

What does Dayang Group still have to do!

The emperor spent three hours, carefully read the newspaper, and finally convened Shang Shuling and other executives and think tanks to discuss.

However, after discussing it for a long time, I couldn't get to the point. But everyone knows at least one thing: Dayang Group is not doing charity work.

Although the Dayang Group has a charity relief department, that thing is not representative of the entire Dayang Group.

The discussion was long and unclear, but Shang Shuling said at the end of the discussion: "Your Majesty, the Green Boat Bank of the Ocean Group is applying to open more branches in our country. ”

The Emperor thought for a moment and asked, "What do you mean?"

"At present, we are not sure of the actions of the Dayang Group. Moreover, Luzhou Bank suddenly injected 50 billion high-grade spirit stones, which is definitely not a wasteland.

Therefore, the minister believes that this application should be pressed. Let's first look at the situation of others, but also look at the operation of Dayang Group, etc. ”

This idea is very good, but late that night, and it was late in the evening when the Dayang Group was there, the Dayang Group sent an ultimatum to the Ming Dynasty:

What, your aircraft carrier team is about to set sail, and you haven't sent the money yet!

But it is said that this time, the Ming Dynasty was ruthless, and in one go, at the auction of Dayang Group, more than 3.2 billion high-grade spirit stones were consumed. Directly created a complete aircraft carrier formation:

one aircraft carrier, 15 mechs, eight fighters, 50 propeller aircraft, one Arctic-class battleship with a displacement of 34,000 tons, two Zhenyuan-class battleships with a displacement of 25,000 tons, and seven Iron Duke-class battleships with a displacement of 13,000 tons;

There are also five Youngwolf-class cruisers with a displacement of 14,000 tons.

Coupled with the training costs and ammunition consumption costs of the Ocean Group, as well as the purchased torpedoes, artillery shells, and even cruise missiles, the total cost is more than 3.2 billion!

This is because of this auction, and Dayang Group did not charge customs duties. If the tariff is calculated according to the normal situation, that is, one-tenth of the tax is calculated, 320 million tariffs will be paid.

However, even if it is 3.2 billion high-grade spirit stones, it is enough for the Ming Dynasty to toss.

The size of the spirit stone is one inch, and the side length of the three spirit stones is about 10 centimeters, and one cubic meter is 27,000 pieces.

3.2 billion high-grade spirit stones are 118518 cubic meters!

According to the density of the spirit stone, it is about 3.5g/cm3, so the approximate weight of the 118518 is 415,000 tons!

In this transaction, Dayang Group only needs to be a high-grade spirit stone.

Of course, if the high-grade spirit stones are insufficient, they can be exchanged for medium-grade spirit stones.

However, the exchange ratio is not 1:100, but 1:110!

The increased part is used as 'liquidated damages' - it was agreed at the time of the auction, it is a high-grade spirit stone, and it is free of customs duties. If you give me a medium-grade spirit stone or even a low-grade spirit stone now, you will have to pay customs duties.

Well, that's a long way off. In short, the Ocean Group spoke - if you want to drive away the aircraft carrier, you have to send the money. Delivered to the headquarters of Dayang Group!

According to the pre-auction agreement, the grace period of up to four months has passed;

Hurry up, it will take at least two months for your Ming Dynasty ships to sail to the Ocean Group!

If the agreed time is exceeded, interest will be calculated.

The interest implementation standard is calculated according to the war loan, with a daily interest rate of 5/10,000, and the interest is rolling!

The wealth of 3.2 billion high-grade spirit stones, if you are one day late, you will have to pay 1.6 million high-grade spirit stones, and you will have to pay 1.6008 million the next day!

In short, after receiving this notice from Dayang Group, the top management of the Ming Dynasty frowned a little.

Three hours ago, they temporarily suppressed the expansion application of Dayang Group-Luzhou Bank, and three hours later, Dayang Group collected debts.

Urgent!

It is not easy to transport 415,000 tons of spirit stones. Counting baling, labor, etc., it is necessary to prepare at least 600,000 tons of 'total cargo displacement'.

In addition, there are warships and masters to follow along the way.

If you want to send these spirit stones to the Ocean Group, the cost is at least ten million!

The steel warships sold by the Dayang Group generally have room for expansion that is twice the total displacement, and the cost is high no matter how large it is.

As for commercial vessels, there is little room for expansion – the cost is too high for commercial vessels to gain more than they lose.

Roughly calculated, if the Ming Dynasty were to use all warships for transportation, it would need to dispatch half of the country's warships - but now many warships are colonizing in the south.

In this way, it can only be transported by merchant ships, escorted by warships.

While the cost was being calculated here, there was a waiter beside the emperor who said: "Liu Shangshu, isn't the Oasis Bank of the Ocean Group able to withdraw deposits?

Shang Shuling Liu Cong shook his head with a wry smile, "According to the auction rules, our money must be sent to the headquarters of Dayang Group." However, if the spirit stone is transferred through Luzhou Bank, Luzhou Bank will charge 1% of the handling fee, transfer freight, etc.

In other words, we have to pay 32 million high-grade spirit stones to Dayang Group. ”

When the squire heard this, he immediately said angrily: "The hateful Ocean Group!"

"Yes, damn it!" Shang Shuling sighed, then shook his head, "It's a pity that we can only follow the rules of the Ocean Group. ”

It's frustrating, but it's not going to be done.

Soon all the spirit stones were loaded, and the ship set sail.

Since you are going to the Ocean Group, the distance is so far away, the fleet is very large. There are not only those who transport spirit stones, but also many merchant ships that do trade.

Merchant ships sail slowly, with twists and turns along the way, and the crisis is unpredictable. The estimated voyage will take 65 days, which is still ideal.

And now the rest of the time is only 80 days. Time is of the essence. Moreover, when transporting and loading the spirit stones, there was a delay of three more days.

............

When the Ming Dynasty was angrily scolding his mother, other holy places were also busy preparing spirit stones.

The auction was too amazing before, so Dayang Group allowed everyone to prepare spirit stones in the later stage.

But now, all the holy places are a little stunned when they look at the two big moves of the Dayang Group in succession: it seems that the Dayang Group is going to make trouble, and it is not a trivial matter!

And just when everyone was busy, distressed about the spirit stone, and was studying the Green Boat Bank and the new spiritual materials, there was news from the Ocean Group:

The first batch of brand-new spiritual materials will be on the market in half a month and will be sold publicly, and the price will be clearly marked, no bidding, first-come, first-served.

Half a month later, it was August, just in time for the launch on August 15.

August 15, the full moon of the Mid-Autumn Festival, is the season of the beginning of the harvest, and it is also a very important festival in this world. It is also painstaking to go public at this time.

However, the larger action of Dayang Group is not a simple sales of spiritual materials. But...... Aviation!

Civil aviation, to be exact!

After a period of silence, the Ocean Group finally made public the first civil aviation aircraft, which, of course, is also supersonic in speed.

In this world of cultivation, there is no market for subsonic aircraft.

The first civil aviation aircraft, named: Reunion No. 1.

Taking advantage of the Mid-Autumn Festival, naming a new, civil aviation aircraft after 'reunion' is also ingenious.

The plane has not yet been tested publicly, but the advertisement has already been sold.

In the Mid-Autumn Festival, I flew home for a reunion, flying above the aura layer, safe and worry-free;

Go to the top of the aura layer to feel life and enjoy the freedom of a bird;

Or go to the Mid-Autumn Festival above the aura layer to feel a different kind of reunion......

In short, all kinds of advertisements filled every corner of the world at the first time.

Perhaps it can now be said that a new era has finally come completely.

But many more are waiting, waiting for the first operation of civil aviation aircraft.
