Chapter 139 Departure to Russia, Commencement of the Plan
"Hiccup~"
"Hiccup~"
Twenty minutes later, Su Meng and Jiang Feng nestled in Chen Wanqing's arms, one on each side, and let out a satisfied burp.
"Is this where Brother Lu was born?"
"And there's a place to raise him—"
"So beautiful!"
Jiang Feng sighed with admiration.
Chen Wanqing smiled and said:
"Yes, you're welcome to come anytime!"
“OK, then I won’t stand on ceremony.” Jiang Feng readily agreed, and Su Meng also asserted her claim: “Me too!”
She glanced at the medicine bottle next to her.
An awkward inquiry:
"Can I try this medicine?"
Chen Wanqing quickly waved her hand: "No, no, this medicine may have side effects, young people can't take it."
Jiang Feng also flicked her on the forehead.
"Damn it~"
"Aunt Chen, you shouldn't eat anymore!"
"Just try it."
"It's getting late. Thank you for your hospitality, Auntie. I have something for you to try, but it's nothing."
"Please enjoy--"
Reciprocity is a basic courtesy.
Over the next few days, Jiang Feng, Su Meng, Xu Jiao, and Xu Lin clung to Chen Wanqing like children.
Teacher Guo, Teacher Yu, and their group also enjoyed horseback riding, hunting, and fishing to their hearts' content at the farm.
We had a blast!
Finally, carrying the red wine and seafood gifted by Jiang Feng, he boarded a private plane with Chen Wanqing and returned to China.
"Brother Qian'er, come visit again sometime!"
"Teacher Guo, let's keep in touch when you have time!"
Take care, everyone!
"Be careful on the road~"
Grandpa Yu waved his hand heartily: "OK, don't worry, brother. When you come back to China, just let me know, and I'll take you to Tsinghua Pool for a scrubbing and to try Quanjude Peking Duck."
Lao Guo joked:
"Let Grandpa Yu peel the onions for us!"
"Hahahaha~"
After everyone said their goodbyes and boarded the plane one after another, Chen Wanqing reluctantly bid farewell to Jiang Feng and the others, whispering to each other.
We agreed to continue sharing nutrients next time.
Send them away.
Back on the farm.
Huang Weiming and Situ Wan'er had been waiting for a long time. Jiang Feng's Russian visa had been issued, and he could leave at any time.
They had also planned their respective goals.
Huang Weiming introduced:
"President Jiang, our treasure hunting team has decided to purchase the gold burial site under the guise of developing and building an off-road training ground, because people often test off-road vehicles in this area."
"There are many enthusiasts for swamp off-roading!"
"It is quite reasonable."
"It's not that strange."
"Moreover, there is relatively little regulation in this area."
"The treasure hunting team has already submitted its application, and it should be approved soon, since Russia is also seeking investment."
Jiang Feng looked at the list of personnel to be dispatched later. The system confirmed that there were no problems. These people would operate rotary drilling rigs to dig "shafts" in the semi-frozen swamp. These "shafts" only allowed one person to pass through at a time, to quietly go down and retrieve the gold.
Isn't this "vertical shaft" just a robbery hole?
Traditional family craftsmanship combined with modern mechanization.
NB
They would first use a metal detector to locate the position, then use a Luoyang shovel to confirm the location, and finally dig a vertical shaft for the robbery.
They dug one hole after another, extracting the gold without anyone noticing, and then resealed the shafts.
The Siberian permafrost is extremely hard.
It is also sticky.
No need to worry about the tunnel collapsing!
However, after the swamp thaws in summer, the surface becomes soft mud, which must be cleared before the height of summer.
It's April now, and the swamp has just partially thawed.
Perfect!
Situ Wan'er also introduced: "President Jiang, I investigated the area near Sliujiangka and found only a small train repair shop that can fully meet our needs, and it is bankrupt and for sale."
Jiang Feng looked at the information and found that the train repair shop was relatively small and could only repair, modify, and refurbish train carriages.
They went bankrupt due to the pandemic and are now shut down.
"Modifying a train?"
Jiang Feng suddenly became interested: "How about this! I'll buy a few luxury carriages, and you can handle the order."
Situ Wan'er: (?_?)?
Ah ~
This?
Isn't this just a cover-up? Are they really going to start work?
Jiang Feng said in a serious tone, "When you're putting on an act, you have to go all the way and not let anyone see through your act."
"It concerns 500 tons of gold."
"We absolutely cannot let our guard down!"
However, what he was thinking was that there are too many people nowadays who drive luxury cars, supercars, yachts, and private jets.
I've never seen anyone ride a special train before!
Oh, there's one too, the strongest post-80s generation.
Kim Jong-un
(→_→)
Jiang Feng muttered to himself, "Wouldn't it be incredibly romantic to take a private train with Su Meng, Xu Jiao, and Xu Lin on a round-the-world trip, or rather, a journey around Eurasia?"
Along the China-Europe Railway Express route—
Southeast Asia
China
Mongolia
Russia
Europe
中亚
Wow, that's interesting! He's really interested in traveling around the world, and he's never even ridden a train before!
Situ Wan'er vaguely guessed his thoughts.
She pursed her lips and rolled her eyes.
"Yes, you're the boss, you make the decisions!"
If you buy a used ordinary passenger carriage, such as the old green trains in my country, you can get one for a few hundred thousand yuan.
Retired used cars, selling for as low as 100,000!
You can't buy a brand new one.
Production has been suspended for many years.
High-speed trains won't work either, because they are all electric locomotives. Many international lines are not yet electrified, such as the Trans-Siberian Railway, which requires diesel locomotives with matching carriages.
A relatively better option is—
UIC Standard - New International Train
For example, the Russian 61-4476 model is a newly developed soft sleeper carriage for international intermodal trains in recent years.
It belongs to the high-end air-conditioned train carriages.
19 meters long
Weight 58 tons
Each new car costs around two to three million.
Compared to bullet trains and high-speed trains, these are much cheaper, often costing tens of millions of yuan, and are readily available.
Jiang Feng plans to buy ten of these carriages.
Transform it into a luxury private train!
Locomotives don't need to be purchased, since trains aren't allowed to run on their own. Passenger lines are all controlled by the railway company, and trains can only run on their train sets.
For example, the China-Russia route—
It can only be attached to train lines K3/K4 and K19/K20. It's probably not easy to apply to make a trip on your own.
Situ Wan'er's team is in talks to acquire the Slyudyanka Railway Repair Factory. Once the acquisition is successful, they will be able to purchase the 61-4476 type carriages from the Tver Rolling Stock Plant.
Jiang Feng approved Huang Weiming and Situ Wan'er's action plan and gave each of them 30 million US dollars, which was more than enough.
Su Meng, Xu Jiao, and Xu Lin were overjoyed to learn about the plan to travel around the world on a luxury train.
But this time I won't take them to Russia.
Condoms
Jiang Feng, Anna, Eva, Zhou Kai, Li Yang, and Lambert—the six of them were just right, no more, no less!
Too many people will attract attention.
Too little and safety cannot be guaranteed.
Moreover, we need to recruit a group of people for this trip to Russia, mainly Aeroflot captains, so we can bring them back along the way.
Huang Weiming and Situ Wan'er's team went to Russia first, and Jiang Feng followed closely behind, departing on a private plane.
Direct flight to Siberia-Buryat!
I did not go to Slyujanka.
After all, his visa application was for the purpose of purchasing helicopters, and he needed to visit the Buryat helicopter manufacturing plant.
The symbolic half-day visit was not a bad one, and Jiang Feng even ordered two more Mi-171s.
The two aircraft are ready to be shipped to the United States immediately.
Two aircraft are scheduled to be sent to Africa.
After staying in Buryatia for two days, Jiang Feng and his group flew to Irkutsk under the pretext of tourism.
They also purchased two Jeep SUVs.
Tourists visit the shores of Lake Baikal.
Passing through Slyujanka.
Situ Wan'er's team has successfully acquired the Slyujanka train repair factory and has begun preparations to start operations.
They purchased electric melting furnaces, rolling mills, and casting machines, ostensibly contacted experienced employees for training, but secretly melted gold in the process.
Jiang Feng had just arrived in Slyujanka.
We received a message from the treasure hunting team that they had obtained the official approval documents and had prepared their tools.
Start positioning, lower the Luoyang shovel.
Jiang Feng quickly drove over with Anna, Eva, Zhou Kai, Li Yang, and Lambert to witness it firsthand.
