"Height 4.12 meters, length 12.3 meters, wingspan 20 meters..." Although he already knew the specific data of this behemoth, Jiang Hai still felt a little panicked. This was an airplane. He had never thought that one day He could also afford this thing. After licking his dry lips, Jiang Hai looked at the shopping guide beside him.
"I want this plane, but I also need a helicopter. Is there anything you can recommend?"
The empty weight of this plane alone is more than three tons. If it flies around once, the diesel money alone will be no less than the money Jiang Hai earned from fishing. Therefore, this plane is destined to only fly once every three to five times. , mainly to spread pesticides and bait.
As for patrols and the like, it is cheaper to use helicopters, and the price of this thing is not expensive.
"Oh, there are many brands of helicopters. If you use them in the manor, a single-engine helicopter is enough. Of course, if you buy multiple engines, we are also very welcome and will give you a satisfactory result. Discount." Hearing that Jiang Hai also needed a helicopter, the salesperson's face suddenly rose. This was good news.
"When it comes to helicopters, the best ones are of course the Bell series. Such helicopters have large interiors, a wide range of uses, and many types. They have everything. Even if they are driven out, they will not lose their status. If you don't If you like the Bell series and feel a little silly, the Hummingbird series is also good. There are also Enstrom, Robinson, McDonnell Douglas, EC, Schwarzer, Sikorsky. We even have Chinese ones here, including Chinese ones from AVIC. , Jiujiang Hongying’s, and Hafei’s, we have them all here.
"Hafei?" Hearing this person's words, Jiang Hai couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. He really didn't expect that he could also encounter domestically produced aircraft here. Isn't there always a rumor that domestically produced engines are not good? It's disgusting, let alone an aircraft manufacturer. Why are there still people selling domestic aircraft in the United States? Although he is determined to make a model for domestic aircraft, to be honest, he has no confidence in his heart.
"Yes, Hafei's. To be honest, the things made by the Chinese are quite reliable, especially this kind of foreign exchange stuff. I'm not saying this just because you are a Chinese. This Hafei helicopter is indeed It's not bad. The aircraft is considered to be the best. The length of the aircraft is 13.012 meters, the height is 3.14 meters, the rotor diameter is 10.69, the empty weight is 1180 kilograms, the take-off weight is two tons, the maximum take-off weight is 2.2 tons, and the cruising speed is It is 220-240 hours per hour, the maximum cruising distance is 560 kilometers, and the endurance time is 3.7 hours, which is quite good. Look at the Bell 206, which has a similar price. Whether this aircraft is A, B or C Models are all smaller than it. The largest C model has a take-off weight of only 1814 kilograms and a flight speed of 225 kilometers per hour. The only advantage is that the cruising kilometers are slightly more, reaching 620 kilometers. However, To be honest, you are going to inspect the fishery. Is there a big difference in the 60-kilometer route for such a close place?" Hearing Jiang Hai's words, the salesperson here also followed suit. Sure enough, Jiang Hai picked up the The order handed over by this person.
He took a look, and sure enough, the Bell 206, known as the best-selling helicopter in the world, has three models in total. The cheapest model A is US$800,000, and the most expensive model C is US$1.2 million. This helicopter is actually more expensive than a fixed helicopter. Wing planes are even more expensive.
Of course, there are also cheaper ones. The cheapest Bell 47 can be bought for just over 60,000 US dollars, but Jiang Hai also dislikes some because it is too ugly, and the maximum take-off weight of this aircraft is only 1340 kilograms. , the maximum level flight speed is only 169 kilometers per hour, the range is 402 kilometers, and there are only four positions. This is the most economical and affordable helicopter.
However, after Jiang Hai saw the Bell 206 and Hafei's helicopter, he was no longer interested in this.
Then I looked at Hafei's helicopter. Sure enough, except for the maximum range, which is 60 kilometers less than the 206C model, the other helicopters are all popular. It is also cheaper than the 206C model, only 650,000 US dollars. Although it was still more expensive than a fixed-wing aircraft, it was still within Jiang Hai's acceptance range. The most important thing was that Jiang Hai saw the name of this helicopter, ZHI11.
"Damn, straight 11!" When he saw the pinyin, Jiang Hai cursed subconsciously.
"Guest, do you know about this plane?" After hearing Jiang Hai's words, the salesperson here was stunned for a moment and asked a little strangely.
"Of course I know... that's it!" Although he is not a military fan, Jiang Hai was more or less a netizen before. The famous Zhixi, how could he not know that this is China Airlines' ambition, and in some iron-blooded On military websites, it is even said to be an armed helicopter that can rival the Apache as the strongest air-to-ground fighter.
Pure military products, maybe some civilian manufacturers in the country may not be reliable, but Jiang Hai has never heard of unreliable ones that are linked to the military industry. Now that he has encountered them, then It was absolutely impossible for him not to buy it.
Now that the decision had been made, Jiang Hai placed the order directly without further explanation and paid the deposit.
Next, he only needs to wait for the two planes to be delivered to his manor, and have Bell and Maren Rupert check them out before he can hand over the remaining money. This has solved a major issue in his heart, and Jiang Hai can also be considered Officially relieved.
After coming out of this exhibition hall, he and Moses Adams were not in a hurry to go back. Instead, they took a good walk around the world's largest city. Anyway, they had nothing else to do today.
Although Jiang Hai has been coming to the United States for a while, he is really not optimistic about the tourism industry here. However, when he comes, he must leave some marks. After coming out, they went to see the Statue of Liberty. Then we went to see Ground Zero. The so-called Ground Zero refers to the ruins of the World Trade Center that were destroyed after 9/11.
But now this place has become an open space. In the middle of the open space, there is a slogan that says "We will never forget." It can be seen that that incident is really an unthinkable thing for the people of American imperialism. Erased marks.
Then they went to Longacre Square, which is actually New York Times Square. Of course, it is more translated as New York Times Square in China, but this place really has nothing to do with the times. At most, it is here every year during the Chinese New Year. There were many people waiting to ring the bell. After shopping here, they went back to Fifth Avenue where they had been yesterday.
But today, they didn't come here to buy things, but to play in the Empire State Building, the Public Library, Rockefeller Center, and Central Park. Jiang Hai had all come here to circle around today. In fact, he was only halfway around. .
Because there are many art museums and art galleries near Central Park, but letting him see these things is almost like playing the piano to an ox, so Jiang Hai just looked outside and gave up the idea of going in.
With his nature of mind, he is destined to have no connection with art. It’s okay not to look at something that is full of 13 frames.
After visiting these attractions, it was evening. After inviting Moses Adams to eat an authentic skewer in front of the subway station in Flushing, Moses Adams took Jiang Hai to Broadway and watched a show. Opera, well, sleeping in an opera.
He really has no interest in this kind of thing, but today, he is very happy.
After all, we are going out to have fun, and having fun is the most important thing.
After he and Moses Adams returned to the hotel in the evening, he took a shower first, and then took out the business card that the girl gave him when he bought the watch yesterday. According to Moses Adams, such an advantage is not worth it. , but will be sent by God.
Jiang Hai respected ghosts and gods the most. He was very afraid of being sent by heaven, so he took advantage of it without any difficulty.
Originally, the girl thought that Jiang Hai, the financial backer, had no faith. After receiving the call, she also looked very excited.
That night, I went to Jiang Hai's room. After having a late-night snack with him, I explained to him the function of this watch in detail.
In the end, Jiang Hai only understood the date and the normal time direction. He still didn't understand the rest, and he was unwilling to understand it. Compared to understanding the watch, he was more willing to understand the girl's own distress.
After a process that cannot be described in words, the time has reached February 13th. Of course, this refers to the time of the American Empire.
In distant China, today is February 14th. Getting up with different girls in the morning is something Jiang Hai never dared to think about before. Of course, he probably won’t think about it all the time in the future. , he now regards it as giving himself a holiday. When he returns to the manor, he probably won't have such thoughts.
After having breakfast with this girl in the morning, I took this girl out for a walk in the morning.
This girl is different from Maggie. Maggie's relationship was just a one-night relationship, but it can be seen from the fact that this girl didn't leave in the morning. If she doesn't get something, she won't leave so easily. In fact, for such an obvious effect, Jiang Hai still likes it because it's not troublesome. After the two separated at noon, Jiang Hai returned to the hotel, because tonight was the first day of the All-Star Weekend.
Tonight at seven o'clock tonight, one of the preliminaries of the All-Star Game, the Celebrity Challenge, and at nine o'clock, the Rookie Challenge.
Tomorrow at 7:30, the All-Star Weekend officially begins. Shooting Stars, Skills Contest, Three-Point Contest, and Slam Dunk Contest will all be staged tomorrow. Of course, this place is actually different. Although the main game is in Madison Square Garden To begin with, today’s and tomorrow’s games will be held at the Nets’ home court, the Barclays Center in Brooklyn.
Although the NBA's influence in the United States is not as great as football and baseball, it is only slightly stronger than ice hockey.
But after all, this is also one of the four major leagues in the United States. In addition, tomorrow is Valentine's Day. The All-Star Game and the atmosphere of Valentine's Day have pushed New York City to its highest point. Considering that Jiang Hai has lived for so long, this is For the first time, I felt that life was so enjoyable.
