If an aircraft company dares to sell aircraft, of course it does not worry about fuel consumption.
There are aircraft gas stations almost all over the United States, providing shutdown, maintenance and refueling services, as well as carrying airline takeoffs and landings.
The problem is that Zhou Li'an's h225 has been transported to the balanced world; it weighs 5.5 tons, and based on the system's urinary properties, if it is less than 1 ton, it will be charged 100,000 per ton. It costs 600,000 to refuel in this world, and 600,000 to go back.
1.2 million for a round trip, that’s not how money is spent.
Of course, you can also buy jet fuel in the United States, but this high-risk fuel will be reviewed and registered, and a dedicated person will visit the fuel filling situation from time to time, that is, watching you refuel, instead of letting you use the jet fuel to create other dangers
Taste.
Zhou Li'an's fuel needs are huge. If it is found that the fuel is not used for flight purposes, the ATF Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms will come to visit.
Even if the aircraft is taken out at that time, the aviation authority does not have corresponding flight records, and abnormal flight records with high mileage will make people suspicious.
So, it is better to think of a way in Mexico. As long as you have money, you can buy anything.
At this time, David Liang was confused and confused, not knowing which of Zhou Li'an's words was true and which was false.
First bring out a large amount of gold, and then the conversation changes and you want to buy jet fuel?
Please, I'm just a small owner of a resort hotel in Juarez. Did you make a mistake when you asked me to buy fuel?
But even so, he still agreed: "I have to contact my friends who are working in this field. How much aviation fuel do you need?"
"As much as you have, 100,000 liters is never too little, and 500,000 liters is never too much."
(oyano)???
David Liang was stunned for a few seconds and said: "Zhou, Mr. Zhou, are you serious?"
"Feel free to make an offer. I still have to stay in Juarez for a few days. The sooner the better. Money is not an issue... This is also my show of sincerity before we cooperate in the gold business. I hope Mr. Liang can take it seriously."
, don’t think I’m joking.”
Helicopter fuel consumption is calculated in flight hours.
However, after rough conversion, the standard cruising fuel consumption of the h225 is more than 25 kilometers per 100 kilometers. If it is operated at high power in bad weather, it will be a gas guzzler.
Calculating based on basic data, 100,000 liters of fuel is enough for a 40,000-kilometer flight, which is almost enough to sweep through all the states in North America. It is a sweep, not a crossing.
Considering future use, the more aviation fuel the better.
The price of jet fuel has increased recently, to $0.95 per liter in gallons, but since I contacted David Liang through private channels, the price has naturally increased.
For less than 1.5 dollars, I can accept it.
500,000 liters of aviation fuel, a business of 750,000 U.S. dollars, David Liang said that he can take away 100,000 U.S. dollars.
This is no small amount of money.
Even though Zhou Li'an and Lao Wang's tannery factory gave him 20,000 yuan in service fees every month, he got it easily, but this income must be shared among multiple parties, otherwise he is just an intermediary, how can he take care of safety?
It's a good achievement to get 3 points in the end.
Money is not that easy to make.
David Liang was silent for a while, and said with a wry smile: "Mr. Zhou, so I shouldn't ask you, is this batch of jet fuel used for the right purpose?"
"right."
"In this case, the offer will be relatively high. Do you accept it?"
"certainly."
David Liang extended his hand and said, "It's a pleasure to cooperate."
Zhou Li'an held hands with him and added: "One more thing, it would be better if you could help me with the packaging. It's 100 liters per barrel. Of course, the ordering of the gasoline barrels and the labor cost are mine. You only need to pay for the total.
Just give me a quote."
500,000 liters of aviation fuel, with a total weight of 387 tons.
If one ton costs US$100,000, it would cost US$38.7 million to put into the [system portable space].
As an excellent system host.
You must learn to deal with system bugs.
100 liters of aviation fuel is 77.5 kilograms, which is within the free quota.
Oil drums can be used repeatedly in the future, but the labor required for filling... How much is labor worth? The most valuable thing these days is labor!!
David Liang was speechless, nodded and said he would try his best to satisfy Zhou Li'an's bizarre request.
Anyway, he will take a reasonable commission.
As for the deposit, there is no rush to negotiate, and the supply and price have not yet been determined, so there is no rush to pay.
…
For three consecutive days, no good news came from David Liang.
After all, it's a big deal. Since Zhou Li'an wants such a large quantity of goods, he is of course willing to help contact more sources of goods in order to extract the maximum commission.
However, the wood carvings shipped domestically have arrived.
In order to prevent the expatriate from the sculpture factory from discovering that the wood carving was him after meeting Zhou Li'an, Zhou Li'an kept avoiding the meeting.
The wood carvings landed in the Gulf of Mexico and were transported by container trucks to the import and export trade zone in Juárez.
Later, Lao Wang was assigned to pick up the goods for inspection. He is an old artist and can inspect furs and antiques, and the wood carving materials are certainly not bad.
However, they are all mechanical sculptures and handicrafts, and there is not much to see. The main thing is to make sure the product does not crack and other basic issues.
Then came the payment and settlement. The expatriate invited me many times but failed to meet the real owner. He finally returned with a full load of money.
If nothing else happens, we will still have transactions in the future.
The quantity of 100,000 sets is far from enough.
After the unification of North America with the Great Migration, there is still South America waiting to be conquered.
At that time, all indigenous people will be brought into equilibrium.
Quetzalcoatl?
That's unbelievable.
If you believe, you all believe in our Lord, Balance.
The wood carvings continued to be placed in the trade area. Zhou Li'an took some time and threw all the wood carvings into the [System Portable Space] alone.
We were originally scheduled to stay in Juarez for 4 days, but ended up staying a week later.
David Liang finally secured the supply of goods.
650,000 liters of standard aviation fuel, just like David Liang doesn’t ask about its purpose, Zhou Li’an doesn’t ask about its origin.
Not to mention quality issues, for a transaction of less than 1 million U.S. dollars, David Liang, as an intermediary, has to check it carefully for Zhou Li'an, otherwise the monk will not be able to escape the temple.
The price is 1.4 knives per liter, and the total price of 6,500 100-liter gasoline barrels is 70,000 knives. Order directly from a factory in Juarez Industrial Zone.
Zhou Li'an paid the full amount.
One day later, I saw 13 giant oil storage tanks of 50,000 liters in an old warehouse in the suburbs. Just looking at the logo on the oil tanks was very reassuring. They were produced by a Mexican oil drilling company and were not covered up.
David Liang recruited 100 temporary workers to be responsible for filling, which is expected to be completed within 4 days.
That night, there was a celebration.
Lao Wang kept him company, but he soon got drunk. David Liang persuaded him to drink intentionally or unintentionally. After he left, he asked Zhou Li'an: "Mr. Zhou, when did you find out about the batch of gold you mentioned before?"
"Don't worry, you need to find a partner first and you can ship the goods at any time."
David Liang said: "If there is no finished product, it is difficult to be convincing."
Zhou Li'an patted his shoulder with a smile, "David, it all depends on how good your lobbying skills are. The project is mine, and if the partners don't show sincerity, why should I cooperate with them? You
Is that right?"
"I will be very busy in the next two months. You'd better get all the preparations in place and we'll discuss the follow-up. Of course, if you can't trust me, just pretend we haven't mentioned this matter."
David Liang heard that he wanted to take the initiative, and he knew what was going on, and said seriously: "Don't worry, Mr. Zhou, I know what to do."
Four days later.
After filling the aviation fuel, the funny thing is that there were 6,500 oil barrels, and at the end there were more than 10 empty barrels left.
It must have been stolen by a temporary worker filling the bottle.
Even if it is emphasized during filling that this is aviation fuel, there will always be people who are uneducated and do not believe in evil.
Jet fuel has a high alkane number. In order to improve combustion continuity and prevent the aircraft engine from stopping in the air, if it is added to a car, the owner will have to scrap the engine.
Zhou Li'an took advantage of the darkness to put this batch of fuel into the system alone.
When the time comes, just use a small oil pump to pump it out.
Filling an aircraft with 40 barrels of modified fuel tanks is a bit troublesome, but the card system bug is nothing, so don’t worry about it.
Fuel and wood carving are done.
Zhou Li'an finally made his way back, and before leaving, he took away the latest chapter of "Bible of Balance" written by Jonah.
After arriving home, forward it to a part-time translator.
The next day.
August 5th.
Zhou Li'an set off.
During his several days in Juarez, he would come to Xiangxi late at night and convene meetings with ministers and elders.
Because I was not sure when I would be able to come back, I issued a development plan for the next two months. In the barbaric era, I could only teach you step by step.
The details of the weather forecast were refined, allowing them to prepare for meteorological disasters in advance. As for earthquakes...
Small earthquakes will not affect balanced development.
Zhou Li'an has already sent down the exact time of the earthquake. Now he only needs to tell his people that this is a test sent by our Lord, and then they should do whatever they want.
In addition, Zhou Li'an gave another 500 horses, and... finally issued a 'gold mining order' and distributed gold mining tools.
Autumn and winter will enter in two months. If you start thinking about how to pan for gold at that time, the progress will be too slow.
If David Liang finds a partner in advance, he must be able to get something, otherwise his credit reputation will be ruined, and it will not be so easy to find a second gang force to cooperate with.
In the eyes of others, David Liang may have had a good time.
But compared with the real gang leader, people would not hesitate to take a second look at him. This cooperation is also an opportunity for him to climb up.
When Zhou Li'an comes back, he should be able to see the altar filled with golden placer gold.
I didn’t bring the snow girl with me this time.
The issue of balancing the education of the next generation is far more important than map exploration.
take off.
First stop, Owens Valley.
At the Balance Branch Station, Zhou Li'an still had to settle some things before departure.
After more than a month of training, all 2,000 people learned how to control horses, and Zhou Li'an finally released 3,500 horses.
Nowadays, the total number of horses in the 17th Ma clan has reached 4,000, and each person can manage 2 horses with ease.
Once they are familiar with the work of herding horses, a team of dozens of knights will be enough to take care of these horses.
Therefore, even if the horses breed more cubs in the future, there will be no need to add more people to the horse breeding land. 2,000 people will be redundant.
After a grand sacrificial celebration.
Zhou Li'an officially embarked on his journey after dawn the next day.
Along the Great Fault in the Owens Valley, it goes all the way due north, passing through the western border of Nevada, and heading straight to the homeland of Oregon, "Picture Rock Valley."
At the beginning, there were no airplanes, only horses, and the open map was only a single route. Now of course, all maps must be opened.
The Oregon exploration ends with Washington State as the west coast destination.
Zhou Li'an has no intention of continuing to advance north. There are not many indigenous people in Canada. When the future equilibrium enters the railway age, there will be time to incorporate them.
Then you can go all the way east and explore Idaho and Montana... and try to cross Minnesota, the source of the "Mississippi River", and reach the Great Lakes region of the United States before the end of summer.
This is an important gathering area for the northern tribes. If the God of Balance does not descend, the Balance Knights will face huge obstacles in their future expeditions.
Then, ending in the Great Lakes area, we can complete the sweep of the east coast downwards.
The return trip starts in North Carolina, goes all the way west, passes through several states to Texas, New Mexico and Arizona, and finally returns to California.
At the beginning of 1400, there were no famous Apaches in the southwest. It was during this period that they began to migrate from the north, or even further north to Canada.
There is no need to elaborate on the reason, the Little Ice Age is coming.
Throughout the history of North American Aboriginal migration, the southern migration of northern tribes began at this time point.
If there is no equilibrium, they will also migrate and seek warmer shelter.
Zhou Li'an set a plan for 2-3 months to complete the work of map exploration and the arrival of the Balanced God.
Unless there was news from David Liang that the gold mine matter had been settled, he had no intention of returning to the Balance Station midway.
This is also the longest time I have been away from the people of Balance since I acquired the system.
Although this was not a year-long jump like the acceleration of time, he still felt a sense of anticipation of opening a blind box in his heart.
Two months later, it remains to be seen whether the people of Balance can maintain their lives and create a more favorable living environment for themselves.
Zhou Li'an has done everything he should do. If they don't ask for improvement, then they really can't lead him.
Before leaving, Zhou Li'an left a small amount of special medicine for Xue Nu, which can be used to treat her or the children of the tribe if she gets sick.
But if more than ten people and relatives are sick, there is only one way...
Dig a hole and bury it.
This is a helpless move.
In ancient times, the only way to eliminate plague was to fill it with human lives.
When the snow girl received the divine decree, she made an unequivocal promise that she would never disobey her master's will.
The daily operations of the tribe are resolved through consultation among the various ministers and elders. If something cannot be decided, the will of the snow girl shall prevail.
This is also the meaning of Zhou Li'an who has taught her to think since she was in Tushi Valley. One day, she will have to take charge of it on her own, especially in the future development and construction of the country. Zhou Li'an alone will not be able to handle the workload, and she needs help to share the worries.
…
August 11th.
The Oregon map is fully open, and the [Weather Forecast] page is new.
At this time, the Tushi Valley was in ruins, but the abandoned materials were probably taken away by the tribes who did not accept the call.
Zhou Li'an did not deliberately search for them. His target group was large tribes with more than a thousand people.
The Modoc tribe migrated away, and Zhou Li'an only found a scattered tribe of nearly 2,000 people in northern Oregon.
He shouted in the same language as Modoc, and his identity was confirmed based on their reactions.
Immediately afterwards, there was the first airdrop of supplies.
Of course, it is not enough to just lower the "Image of the True Body of My Lord Balance"; of course, when a god comes, he will bless you.
The Holy Artifact of Balance hovered over the tribe, and Zhou Li'an turned on the autopilot to hover, then dropped the packed bags of salt.
Modern table salt will always be hard currency.
Snow white and not bitter.
This is definitely the best blessing.
Finally, a large statue and several small statues were put down using chains with mechanical claws.
Don't throw this thing down. If it breaks, you won't be able to recognize what the balance looks like.
After everything was done, Zhou Li'an looked at the worshiping natives on the ground and felt so blessed that he marked the map and recorded the approximate population.
This will be one of the destinations where the Balance Chapter will come to pick up the people in the future.
…
"Balance Bible" New Century Chapter——
Equilibrium for 1 year, starting in August.
The Holy Artifact of Balance has arrived in many places, and our Lord, Balance, has given blessings and opened a new chapter of a bright future for the people of the earth.
