Doomsday Super Merchant

Chapter 166 Aviation Engine

What Zhou Yuanqiang wants to solve most is the problem of air control. Just think about it, an ordinary simple plane can also play a huge role in helping him reach Qingyuan City, and finally successfully save the settlement. His own

Although the credit is great, but it is not as effective as a simple aircraft?

Now this simple aircraft has been repaired by Xu Dali and serves as the first training aircraft in the settlement. Out of the importance of the aircraft, Zhou Yuanqiang even directly selected more than 500 people out of more than 100,000 people.

People, carry out specialized aviation training.

To this end, Wan Zhongshan had to use motorcycle engines and build three simple small planes to serve as trainers for these students to learn to fly.

Don't think that learning to fly an airplane is difficult. In fact, it is for modern airplanes. For this simple small airplane, it is basically just a few simple operations to get the airplane into the sky and fly freely in the blue sky. Like modern airplanes

On a passenger plane, basically after the plane takes off, all the crew needs to do is drink coffee comfortably in the cockpit. They don't need to operate it until it lands. It is almost a cruise flight all the way, and they don't need to worry about it.

But this simple aircraft has too many shortcomings. The engine alone is enough to drive people crazy, and the speed is like a snail. At the moment of takeoff and landing, the entire aircraft will make abnormal noises, as if it is about to fall apart. Zhou Yuanqiang tried it

, that taste is simply a journey to hell, allowing you to feel the call of death at the closest distance.

Engines and materials for making airplanes must be solved.

Having an aviation force is too tempting for Zhou Yuanqiang, and having an aviation force is enough to make the wasteland settlement become the overlord of the entire wasteland and spread the footprints of the wasteland settlement to further places.

...In fact, it is to take the business to further places.

"How about it, people from Xi'an Aviation Group Company don't agree to sell their engines to us? What about private companies like Haili..." Zhou Yuanqiang looked at Xi'an Aviation Group Company's reply with some depression.

It was formal, but it made Zhou Yuanqiang feel a deep sense of irony and overestimation.

Li Yihan was also helpless and said: "It's not like you don't know the market situation in our country. We want to buy aircraft engines, but they don't dare to sell them. What's more, our company is still a trading company and has no reputation. People from the Security Bureau don't

We are lucky enough to invite us to tea, let alone buy an engine. Boss, what we are buying is not an ordinary engine, it is an aerospace engine. Even if it is a piston type, it is not something you can buy just by looking for it."

Of course, Zhou Yuanqiang asked Li Yihan to contact him, but he didn't hold out much hope. You must know that even retired old-fashioned aircraft will have people responsible for disassembling the important instruments, engines, etc. In this case, who can buy it?

Although it was bold, the person selling it was even more confused.

"Lao Li, try to contact foreign companies. I don't believe it. You can't buy it even if you have money. And what we want is just an old-fashioned piston aero engine, and it doesn't have any high-tech content in it. There should be a company willing to buy it."

Take our order.”

Zhou Yuanqiang thought about it. In some European and American countries, they have many aviation companies, large and small, especially those that manufacture private jets. They all have their own engine manufacturing factories. It is not difficult to purchase a batch of engines.

Things. You must know that these are not prohibited in foreign countries. Many private individuals can purchase them and try to build their own aircraft.

Li Yihan has been working in the trading company for more than a month. He feels very strange about this trading company because the trading industries he is engaged in are too many and complicated. For example, sometimes he purchases large quantities of grain.

, sometimes it is steel, sometimes it is cement, sometimes it is some metal instruments, and even scrap scrap materials are also within the scope of procurement.

Faced with this, Li Yihan was confused. This trade path and customers were too wild, right?

It's better now, he immediately started thinking about starting the aero-engine business. This has already touched the corner of the arms business. Is it possible that his own trading company also has arms business? He doesn't understand why his former subordinates,

Why has there been such a big change in half a year?

There is plenty of information on the Internet, and it is easy to find several small aero-engine companies. After calling and asking, it is not a big problem. For them, they make their own engines just to sell them. If someone buys them, they

Of course I am very happy.

But when they heard that a Chinese company wanted to buy it, they all shook their heads.

Li Yihan said to Zhou Yuanqiang with a headache: "Boss, after asking, they are willing to sell, but they are unable to transport the engine to our country. You should know the reason for this. We want to achieve this deal

For business, you have to go to the United States, and they are not responsible for the customs clearance of the engine."

At this point, Li Yihan felt a little helpless, "I can't even get out of their customs. How can I transport it back to our country? Isn't it the same as not buying it?"

Is transportation difficult? Zhou Yuanqiang didn't think so. He touched his chin and said: "Lao Li, you and them first negotiate the style of the engine and let them provide us with the data. We will be responsible for the transportation when the time comes. They need

The best thing is to prepare more than a hundred sets of engines and peripheral accessories. You can find a few more, I think a large order like a hundred sets is enough to make them compete with each other. "

"Boss, we really want to buy this transportation..."

Zhou Yuanqiang laughed and said: "Lao Li, don't worry, I won't make fun of my company's money. In fact, the company that ordered the engine this time is overseas. We only need to hand it over on the high seas.

You don’t need to go back to China at all to complete it. Don’t worry, I will naturally do things in a measured way.”

Now that Zhou Yuanqiang already had a solution, Li Yihan didn't say much about the engine. The list in his hand was the various parts listed in Wanzhongshan. He looked at them and said: "Many of these parts are universal and can be purchased.

, but some must be customized by a specialized factory, and the cost will be very high.”

Zhou Yuanqiang didn't care, and said: "No matter how high the cost is, we have to get it. You have to find a way to buy these parts first."

Now the problem begins to involve money again, and how to make these engines appear in the settlements openly and smoothly. In other words, they simply say nothing. Anyway, they will never figure out where these engines came from.

.After all, the general warehouse is in their hands, and their suspicions are nothing to worry about when the settlement has an airplane.

The fuselage of the aircraft is usually made of aluminum alloy. According to the plan, the settlement will first manufacture 80 single-wing aircraft, using piston aero engines as power. The layout is the same as that of private jets, but they focus more on combat and bombing.

There will be some changes in the direction. In addition, 20 light helicopters will be manufactured, and they will patrol the movement within a hundred kilometers of the settlement.

This project is a bit huge, and it cannot be accomplished with just the materials.

Starting from the decision to ignore their suspicions, Zhou Yuanqiang first established the Wasteland Aircraft Manufacturing Factory in the settlement, setting aside a special area and classifying it as a military restricted area. After that, all kinds of equipment needed to manufacture aircraft were continuously transported from the general warehouse.

, in just one week, the aircraft manufacturer had the initial ability to manufacture the casing.

For example, airplanes can be said to be Wan Zhongshan's old profession. The director of the manufacturing plant is of course his responsibility. For this reason, he will resign from his position as director of the research department of the Chamber of Commerce.

Although electronic instruments have not yet arrived, the impatient Wan Zhongshan has already begun to direct a large number of novices to learn the necessary skills in aircraft manufacturing. The casing of the first aircraft has also officially entered the manufacturing process.

Based on the skill of novices, it is estimated that it will take about ten days and a half to complete the manufacturing of this 21-meter-long and 5-meter-high fuselage.

In real terms, the technical content of helicopters is the lowest. Like light helicopters, many arrogant mechanics can independently build a helicopter that can fly anywhere. So Wan Zhongshan is just

In two nights, I came up with the design drawing of a light helicopter, and on the third day I listed the various parts needed for the helicopter.

With Zhou Yuanqiang's prestige in the settlement, he can be said to be a god-man, so no one doubts too much about the many instrument parts that appeared, and they just treat them as brought back by the hunting team. Only those like high-level officials,

I just know a little bit about it. Although I have doubts, no one has revealed it. This mysterious and unsolvable mystery is not a bad thing after all.

The establishment of an aircraft manufacturing plant had to face another problem, which was the problem of labor force.

Now the entire settlement is undergoing major construction. Not to mention the tens of thousands of people needed for simple houses, the top priority is the wall, which has used more than 60% of the labor force in the entire settlement. Because no one knows when the zombies will launch their first attack.

The second offensive is to repair the wall as soon as possible and relieve this trouble as soon as possible.

Hundreds of thousands of people may seem like a lot, but when it is truly broken down, it is far from enough for settlements. Without enough people, some construction projects cannot even be carried out.

Zhou Yuanqiang wanted to allocate some soldiers to the construction, but Qiu Guorui refused without hesitation. The entire army was in the period of mixing old and new people. Such hasty transfer would mean that the soldiers would not get training and cooperation.

How can one become an elite soldier under such circumstances?

There is no other way, Zhou Yuanqiang can only find other ways to solve the problem of insufficient personnel.
