Chapter 171 Flight test completed, ready for mass production
Half an hour later, the Kunpeng II long-range strategic bomber returned to the ground.
The two pilots also came down to summarize the results of this operation.
At the same time, some staff members inspected the bomber.
Minister of Military Industry Lu Hangxuan smiled and said, "Your Majesty, it seems that the test flight is going very smoothly!"
Qin Ruihua nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, it seems that you have put in a lot of effort this time. Thank you for your hard work."
"If there are no subsequent problems, we can start mass production."
Lu Hangxuan replied: "Yes, Your Majesty. We currently have 150 Kunpeng-1 long-range bombers."
"So how many Kunpeng II long-range strategic bombers should we produce next?"
Qin Ruihua thought for a moment and said, "First, arrange all the Kunpeng-1 bombers to serve in Taishan Country, but they must be firmly in our own hands."
"As for the Kunpeng II bomber, we can start by producing 300 of them. Don't be too anxious. We can just take our time."
Lu Hangxuan nodded to show that he understood: "Okay, Your Majesty."
Qin Ruihua asked: "So how is the research and development of jet fighters progressing?"
Lu Hangxuan reported confidently: "Currently, the progress is smooth and the first flight is expected to be carried out within the next two years."
Qin Ruihua showed a gratified smile: "Very good, keep working hard."
Qin Ruihua subsequently followed up with the Minister of Military Industry and put forward some of his own opinions, and left the military base not long after.
The Dongyang Kingdom is now very coveting Australia and has directly occupied the Island of New Guinea.
The army here surrendered within less than a day. This is a colony of the Windmill Kingdom and the Australian Kingdom.
Since the country of Australia has been destroyed, it is equivalent to only the Windmill Country controlling this place.
However, the Windmill Kingdom was already on the decline, and the Dongyang Kingdom did not take the Windmill Kingdom seriously at all.
Later, some nearby islands were occupied.
Except for the colonies of the United States.
This move attracted the attention and condemnation of countries around the world, and they expressed their dissatisfaction with Dongyang State's behavior.
However, Dongyang State did not pay attention to these voices and continued to firmly implement its expansion plan.
At the same time, the Windmill Kingdom was furious about the Dongyang Kingdom's aggressive behavior.
They wanted to send a large army to fight against Dongyang State immediately, but unfortunately, the gap in military strength between the two countries was huge and they could not be compared at all.
Faced with reality, the Windmill Kingdom could only helplessly watch as the Dongyang Kingdom gradually eroded its colonies.
Although other countries expressed indignation at Dongyang's actions, they were unable to take substantive action to stop it.
The scene comes to the special administrative region of Yan State - it has been renamed Xiaoyao City.
People flock to this city just to pursue freedom and enjoy the joy of life.
Today, Xiaoyao City has developed into the second most important city in Yan State, and has even made its mark on the international stage.
Although it fails to make it into the top ten cities in the world, it still has considerable status and influence.
It is worth mentioning that among the top ten cities in the world, only Fenglin City in Yan Country was successfully selected and ranked among the top.
As the core driving force of Yan Country's economy, Fenglin City contributes more than half of the country's gross domestic product (GDP).
Walking into a pawn shop, it was crowded and bustling.
Many customers come in an endless stream to pawn various items, seeking quick cash or financial support.
This pawn shop is famous for its wide range of acquisitions, whether it is precious gold, silver, jewelry, or other items of certain value, it can find buyers here.
However, not all items are equally popular.
Some commodities, such as the gold, silver and jewelry owned by Shen Yingxiong, can often be recovered at high prices due to their extremely high market demand and value preservation.
The total value of this batch of gold, silver and jewelry was about 10 billion last time, and the pawnshop generously offered a recycling price of 800 million.
In contrast, some other items may only get a lower recycling price, even less than one-tenth of the original price.
Just then, a young couple walked into the pawn shop.
The man took out a pocket watch from his pocket, gently placed it on the table, and asked, "Excuse me, how much can you pay for this?"
The staff member took the pocket watch and examined it carefully. After a minute, he gave his answer: "This pocket watch looks ordinary, nothing special, and no historical value."
"According to market conditions, it's worth about a hundred dollars, and the most we can offer is fifty dollars."
The man frowned, indicating that he was not satisfied with the price, and asked for an increase.
However, the staff replied that if they were not satisfied, they could look elsewhere.
After thinking for a moment, the man finally decided to accept the price and sell the pocket watch.
After the transaction was completed quickly, another woman walked into the store.
She placed a bracelet on the table and the staff began to examine it carefully.
After a while, the staff said, "Hello, young lady."
"You brought a top-quality jade bracelet with a market value of about two thousand yuan. We are willing to buy it for one thousand three hundred yuan."
The woman nodded to indicate her agreement to sell, and the transaction was completed smoothly.
At this time, another man walked into the room with a document.
The staff didn't know much about this kind of item, so the man began to explain: "This is a wanted poster from a hundred years ago, and it's an original version."
"The person on the warrant is wanted for assassinating the president. I don't think it's worth less than 20,000 yuan."
Upon hearing this, the staff immediately called in experts from the United States to conduct an appraisal.
After careful inspection and research, the expert gave the answer: "This is indeed a wanted poster from a hundred years ago, but it is not the original version."
"Although it is not certain how many are still in existence, a large number were issued at the time, and the market value is about fifty yuan."
At this time, the staff member stepped forward and said, "Sir, our experts have already given a clear conclusion. They are all professionals and have absolute authority."
"For unpopular items like this, we can only offer five dollars."
The man was very angry and said, "I suspect you are in cahoots with me and want to deliberately lower the price to cheat me! I have decided not to sell it!"
The staff shrugged and replied, "Well, I wish you a happy life and goodbye."
After saying that, the man left angrily.
Just then, another man from Dazhou State sneaked in.
He carefully placed a cup on the table and said in a low voice, "This is a treasure I brought from my hometown!"
"According to my ancestors, this was given to our family by the emperor, and was even used by the emperor himself!"
The staff do not care about the origins of these items, they only care about whether these items are valuable.
Faced with this cup, the staff found it difficult to determine its authenticity for a moment, so they invited experts from Dazhou State.
After careful research and appraisal, the expert finally came to the conclusion: "This cup is indeed very good."
"Its outer layer is covered with a layer of gold, and its inner part is made of fine jade, and is carved with various lifelike patterns."
"If the historical records are correct, this is what happened."
"Taking into account the historical value and its own value, this cup is worth about 200,000 yuan."
Then the expert left. The staff asked, "Sir, did you hear the price the expert said? Are you planning to pawn it dead or alive?"
"If it's a death pawn, let's just go with what the expert said, two hundred thousand."
"Sir, are you asking us to pawn our business for nothing?"
"How much did you say?"
"We can offer a price of one hundred and fifty thousand."
"Too little."
"So how much do you think is appropriate?"
"At least 180,000!"
After discussion, they finally decided to sell it to the pawnshop for 160,000 yuan.
These pawn shops are all located near casinos so that they can have a steady stream of business.
Some people sell everything when they lose so much that they lose their minds.
Some people who win money will go to these pawn shops to buy some things.
So these pawn shops have always had good business.
