Seeing that Lin Sanqi didn't respond, Liu Xingchang pretended to continue looking at the sky and then started cursing:
"Why is Yang Shufeng still flying? How much fuel must he be burning? Hurry up and signal him to come down. Seriously."
When Lin Sanqi saw that Liu Xingchang started a conversation, he also smiled. He had no intention of asking the Air Force for money at all.
Where does the Air Force get the money? That little money is not even enough to pay for the pilots' food.
Leader Jing is the key, so Lin Sanqi blinked his big eyes and looked at the old man in front of him.
Leader Jing also looked at Lin Sanqi, knowing that he had to give him an explanation.
When they can't buy things from foreign countries, they shout that they will sell everything they have at any cost.
But being stingy when facing his own people, and even wanting to take it for free, is not a normal outlook, and the old man knows it very well.
"Comrade Sanqi, first of all, I want to express my sincerest gratitude and respect for bringing the most advanced aircraft back to China. The leadership is aware of this and is paying close attention.
In addition, regarding the purchase cost, don't worry, the leader's instructions are that you can take whatever you like, and we will fully cooperate.
So this is what I think. This time we will give you 40 tons of gold. I know this amount of gold is far from enough, but it is already half of the national treasury.
Also, since you like precious medicinal herbs such as musk, bezoar, tiger bones, etc., we have also instructed everyone to hunt them down and gather a certain amount of them as quickly as possible.
It's too late to get the tea as winter has already arrived. But don't worry, all new tea in the country will be suspended from export and domestic sales next year, and all will be given to you.
Comrade Sanqi, do you think this is enough? If not, we can gather more."
Lin Sanqi was so frightened that he almost fell to the ground.
This is the pace of killing off the musk deer and tigers in the entire country. Then, Lin Sanqi will become an eternal sinner in the eyes of future animal protection organizations, and their kneeling statues will be erected in the Qinling Mountains and Changbai Mountains.
This musk is okay. After all, he theoretically has a musk breeding base, so he can explain the source.
But he really didn't dare to use the tiger bone after getting it from another time and space. This was a matter of principle. He would almost certainly go in and use the sewing machine.
So Lin Sanqi thought about it and decided to stop at the right time and not take too much money. After all, life in the country is really difficult these days.
This money is too hot to handle.
But we cannot not take it either. We should be grateful for a little bit of rice and worry about a big amount of rice. We cannot condone certain behaviors.
"Let me take the 40 tons of gold, the musk and bezoar to a minimum, and the tiger bones. Rest assured, Boss, I will definitely get the most planes for the least amount of money and at the lowest cost."
Also, I ask the higher-ups to be at ease and not worry about money. The pharmaceutical industrial park in Bao'an County is being built at a rapid pace and will be put into production soon, and then we will be able to earn foreign exchange.
"I need as many intellectuals as possible. I need not only engineers, but also a large number of literate workers. This is particularly crucial."
When Leader Jing heard Lin Sanqi's words, he was deeply moved:
If we use the same 40 tons of gold to purchase fighter jets from the Soviet Union, let’s not talk about whether they will be sold or not. Even if they are sold, if the relationship is good, they can be sold at a friendly price of one ton of gold per fighter jet.
Now the relationship is bad, the minimum price is 2 tons of gold per MiG-21, no bargaining. (The J-20 costs 3.5 tons of gold per aircraft)
This is the price that Eastern European countries pay.
That is to say, 40 tons of gold can only buy one flying squadron at most, not including maintenance workshops and spare parts.
Lin Sanqi plans to provide 500 fighter jets and 40 passenger planes, and there will also be various fighter jets, helicopters and bombers in the future.
This is equivalent to giving it away for free, so the contribution is huge.
Leader Jing held Lin Sanqi's shoulder with one hand, remained speechless for a long time, and his eyes were wet.
Lin Sanqi hated this kind of scene the most. He felt guilty for taking 40 tons of gold. After all, he made more than 100 billion from selling jade alone, and so many planes combined only made 60 billion.
If he has no money, the worst that can happen is that he will continue to sell jade. Anyway, he now has jadeite, a popular product in the market.
So Lin Sanqi felt that he had to give back to the 1960s. It was not that he was a saint, but money was just a number to him now.
He has won the lottery, has become rich, and can do whatever he wants.
Amidst the other pilots cursing, Yang Shufeng landed the J-7.
As soon as he landed and jumped out of the cockpit, he was surrounded and beaten by a group of air force soldiers:
"Gou Ri Yang Shufeng, we agreed to fly for 15 minutes each, and you only flew for half an hour?"
"That's right, you bastard who eats all the food for himself, I must beat you to death today."
"Kick his ass. Kick his ass so badly that he won't take up other people's flying time again."
"This is too abominable! Everyone, get out of the way! I'm going to crush this Yang the Dwarf to death!"
“Hahaha~~~”
After being beaten by his colleagues, Yang Shufeng showed no pain at all. Instead, he ran to his leader with a face full of excitement:
"This plane is fantastic. With this new aircraft, there is no place in the world that we cannot go.
Based on my preliminary calculations and the data on the aircraft's instrument panel, I can roughly conclude that the new aircraft's maximum level flight speed is about 2,300 km/h and its stall speed is 240 km/h.
The maximum turning angular velocity is 22 degrees/second, the low-altitude stable hovering angular velocity is about 14 degrees/second; the maximum overload is 8g; the practical static ceiling is 17,800 meters, and the maximum climb rate is 155 meters/second.
All of these data far surpass all domestic models, and even beat the Soviet MiG-21 (early model).
I don’t have the parameters of the US military’s aircraft, but if I take off in this new aircraft, I can definitely sweep away all US military aircraft.
The simplest one is that the speed and altitude of this new aircraft far exceed those of the Mi aircraft. In the past, we could not catch up with it and could not fly high enough, so even if we found the Mi aircraft, we could not hit it and had to watch it run away.
Now I am not afraid anymore. Just give me a flying squadron and I guarantee that any enemy planes that dare to invade our country will be killed without a trace. We will fight one against one, and two against two, haha."
“Okay~~~”
All the air force personnel present were experts and cheered together.
Lin Sanqi thought that professional matters should be left to professionals, and it would be a waste to have the J-7 in his hands.
At the same time, he had a thought in his mind: the J-7 is so powerful, shouldn't we try to get a few J-10s? That would make them truly invincible in this era, right?
Liu Xingchang was also very excited. He patted Lin Sanqi's shoulder and gave orders:
"Let's all fly around today. Hurry up, line up one by one, and then each of you write me a flight report. I need to submit it to the central government. Damn it, our Air Force has been lucky enough to get this, hahahaha~~~"
In the 1960s, the army was the absolute boss.
The Air Force has the best treatment, the Navy has the hardest time, especially submarine soldiers. If you don't have great perseverance, you can't join the Navy at all.
But Lin Sanqi knew that future wars would gradually begin to abandon large-scale infantry combat. The better approach would be to have missile planes flying all over the sky, carrying out surgical precision strikes on the enemy, or even decapitation operations.
So we must develop the air force.
Before we dominate the world, the navy only needs to have the ability to protect itself, but the air force is definitely a powerful weapon that can attack or defend.
By the evening, all the Air Force pilots had tried out the J-7 aircraft and all gave it extremely high praise, which made Leader Jing and Liu Xingchang feel at ease.
Leader Jing shook Lin Sanqi's hand and gave it a few firm squeezes.
"Comrade Sanqi, I'll go ahead. This Xianzhou aircraft and the new fighter plane..."
Lin Sanqi added, "Let's call it the J-7 from now on. It's easy to get confused if we keep calling it a new aircraft."
"Okay, let's call it the J-7. So, after we take off with the Xianzhou aircraft, we'll fly directly to the capital tomorrow. I need to report to my superiors. Your J-7 is going to fly directly to the Shenyang Aircraft Manufacturing Plant.
I'm not happy with what you said. We are currently researching the Soviet MiG-21. The arrival of your more advanced J-7 will definitely advance the process of domestically producing our own fighter jets."
Lin Sanqi said casually:
"It's okay, you can take it down. Anyway, I'm going to build 10 or 20 more for you tonight. It's a lot, you don't have to treat it like a treasure.
Fighter planes are like bicycles; they're meant to be ridden. Don't be so cautious; just stand up and pedal." (End of chapter)
