Chapter 514: RMB Player
North American Airlines production capacity is very strong, from 1941 to 1945, North American Airlines produced 15,000 aircraft, an average of about 10 aircraft per day, of course, now North American Airlines is not as inflated to tens of thousands of employees to produce together.
"It will take 5 months, and it will take 5 months at the shortest to produce this batch of fighters." The president said.
After the matter of North American Airlines was settled, Jiang Hao returned to the mercenary company.
With Cameron, Jiang Hao's mercenary company has developed very well, with more than 50 experienced American pilots, more than 300 Chinese flight cadets, and a number of maintenance and ground crew.
Jiang Hao found Cameron and said: "I have ordered 100 fighters, it will take about 5 months, and in 5 months, I will take the pilots and this batch of planes to China to participate in the battle, Cameron, by that time, can you make up enough 100 pilots." ”
Cameron nodded and said: "The quality of that batch of students is good, I believe that after 5 months, they will all be able to fly independently and participate in the battle, but the real combat level is honed in actual combat, and no one will know the result." ”
"Then let's work together." Jiang Hao said.
From this day on, Jiang Hao also followed to learn to fly an airplane, his memory is good, his physical fitness is super strong, all kinds of knowledge can be learned, all kinds of actions in the air can not be difficult for him at all, it didn't take long for Jiang Hao to master fighter piloting, and surpass most of the students, and even surpass some veteran American pilots.
"Ringing ringing!"
The phone in Jiang Hao's office of Hall Company rang, Jiang Hao picked it up and answered, it was James who called, since Jiang Hao stabilized Roosevelt's condition and allowed Mr. President to walk freely, Jiang Hao and James have become the best brothers.
"Hey, Jon, what's the point of you snuggling up in flight school all day, you know, our little blue pills are selling big, and the data from the drug sellers is counting, roar, I can't believe it's even more profitable than sulfonamides."
"Jon, you've really become a multi-millionaire, maybe you might be the first Chinese multimillionaire in the United States right now." James said excitedly.
Jiang Hao smiled and said, "James, do you believe it, I'm still getting the lawyer to contact me and prepare to take a loan from the bank." ”
There was silence on the other end of the phone for two seconds, and James spoke again: "Jon, have you ever thought about selling your shares?" ”
Jiang Hao's heart moved.
It seems that someone has taken a fancy to the shares in their hands.
It's inevitable,
Knowing that an industry makes money and has very good prospects, there are naturally people who are willing to invest and make money, in fact, Jiang Hao had thought about selling some shares after the price was high.
What's more, as an individual, he does have more shares, James's side is the family industry, but Jiang Hao is a person, although he is a small head, it is easy to make people blush.
"Oh, does anyone want to buy it?" Jiang Hao asked.
"Yes, many people asked me, the people of the DuPont family came and wanted to cooperate with us in the pharmaceutical factory, which could expand the current scale by 10 times, you know that the drugs we produce are simply not enough, not to mention the whole world, the United States can't supply them." James said.
Jiang Hao didn't hesitate too much, and said: "Of course you can, but the price will not be cheap, you and I both know the prospects of these two drugs, it is definitely a big gold mine." ”
James laughed, "Of course, how can I sell cheaply, although we can win over a good ally, but I won't trade at a loss." ”
A month later,
After several rounds of negotiations, it was finally settled that DuPont bought 30% of the shares of the pharmaceutical company, Jiang Hao sold 11% of the shares, and the remaining 23% of the shares, received $23 million in cash.
Now there is really money.
North American Airlines has Mustang fighters manufactured one after another, and if there are enough 5 of them, they will be sent to Jiang Hao's mercenary company, and Cameron really likes this kind of aircraft very much, and immediately flew it twice.
After coming down, Cameron said with some excitement: "Oh, this is the best fighter I have ever flown in, there is no one, I believe that with these guys, you can defeat any opponent in the air." ”
"I will send 5 more planes to North American Airlines, and this batch of planes will be practiced by mercenaries and cadets to familiarize themselves with fighter performance."
"Also, prepare more supplies, we go to the East, the supply will be a big problem, I have enough funds now, I can prepare as much as I can, when the time comes, we will hire a few freighters, transport all the planes and supplies to Vietnam, and then transfer them to China."
Cameron nodded, "I think so." ”
After Cameron left, Jiang Hao started to think about his own money again, and now he has more than 20 million US dollars in cash.
Now an ounce of gold is 35 US dollars, 10 million US dollars, can be exchanged for 8 tons of gold, and his gold space is now only half a cubic meter, which is really not enough, so he decided to expand it.
However, he also had to buy fighter jets and spare parts, bullets, fuel and other materials, pay the salaries of mercenaries, support hundreds of cadets, and prepare to bring back a batch of sulfonamides, which was almost all useful.
What to do?
Jiang Hao once again started the idea of taking out a loan.
It doesn't matter if you don't have money, we have assets, isn't it a good habit for Americans to spend in advance, I picked up the phone and called my lawyer Curtis, "Curtis, help me contact the bank, I'm going to take out a loan." ”
"Oh, boss, I remember you just got a sum of 23 million in cash." Curtis said in surprise.
"It's not enough, it's not enough, you talk to those banks, just say I want to use my current shares as collateral to see how much money I can borrow." Jiang Hao said.
"All of them?" Curtis said in a shocked tone.
"Yes, all."
Curtis felt his head a little dizzy, "Boss, the value of your shares should be around 45 million, I really don't know what you are doing with such a large sum of money." ”
"I'm naturally useful, Curtis, let's talk to them, find a few more banks, and whoever borrows more will take out a loan from whoever's bank." Jiang Hao said.
"Your assets are very sought-after, and I think the banks will be more than happy to lend you money."
A few days later, Curtis came to the door with people from Wells Fargo, and the amount of loans they gave was 30 million, the highest among all banks, and Jiang Hao made a 10-year loan, and the interest on this loan was an astonishing amount, reaching more than 13 million dollars.
Curtis, the lawyer, felt dizzy when he looked at it, Jiang Hao signed the contract, and Jiang Hao's only request was that he had to bring him cash.
In the afternoon of the next day, a truckload of money was transported to Jiang Hao's office, and looking at the neatly stacked banknotes, Jiang Hao cheered and pounced directly.
"Absorb, transform!"
Brush brush brush,
Stacks of banknotes disappeared, and then disappeared into space, and the space is also increasing little by little, 30 million US dollars, in modern time and space can not even buy a ton of gold, but here, it can be exchanged for 24 tons of gold, 24 tons is almost 1.2 cubic meters.
If all the 30 million US dollars are absorbed, Jiang Hao's space can be increased to 1.8 cubic meters.
Jiang Hao complained from the bottom of his heart, the golden space is really expensive.
In the end, Jiang Hao still left 5 million in the space, and the space was also fixed at 1.5 cubic meters.
Why is Jiang Hao obsessed with expanding the golden space?
Because then he can turn a fighter into a bomber.
A B25 bomber, the bomb load is 1.5, Jiang Hao's space load is about the same as a B25 bomber, Jiang Hao is ready to put the Mustang fighter, play the feeling of a bomber, when the time comes to bomb the Japanese position, I don't know if they will be confused.
In the blink of an eye in January 1939, North American Airlines had built 50 Mustang fighters, except for 10 that flew to New York Hall Mercenary Company for training, the rest Jiang Hao did not let them ship to New York, but knew that they were semi-finished products, directly loaded into containers, and sent to the Los Angeles dock.
Later, Jiang Hao ordered Lucas to start organizing cargo ships, loading planes, ammunition, and supplies onto ships, transporting them to Vietnam first, and assembling the planes there.
This time the team was led by Lucas, all the ground staff and mechanics passed, and 300 trainees were also brought over, basically the Hall company was empty, only a dozen staff remained, Jiang Hao sat in charge himself, waiting for the next batch of planes to be manufactured, and then escorted to Vietnam together.
In March, the grass grows and the warbler flies,
Jiang Hao found Mr. Situ Meitang again and told him all his plans, and the old man was very excited.
"Do your best for the country, lead people to participate in the war in person, you are a model for all overseas Chinese youth, I will send a telegram to the Standing Chairman to tell him the good news, he is having a hard time now, and I will definitely welcome you with 120,000 points for your service."
Before leaving, Jiang Hao met with James again, James was really a little reluctant to Jiang Hao, Jiang Hao said with a smile: "Don't worry, I won't die, the shares of my company are managed by a lawyer, Misses, whether you can make money or not depends on you, you know, I have all my net worth." ”
"I know that you have a loan of 30 million in Wells Fargo, and I am afraid that you will have to pay interest on your profits in three years." James said.
"It doesn't matter, the purpose of my money is to help my motherland." Jiang Hao said.
"Well, I admire your noble sentiments, I have prepared the sulfonamide you want, a total of 10 tons, worth 5.6 million, I will deduct it from your share." James said.
"Thank you James,"
Jiang Hao took out three talismans from his pocket, handed them to James and said: "These are three talismans for healing, I'm afraid I won't be able to come to the United States in a few years, use one for President Roosevelt every year, light it with a lighter, put it in water and drink it, don't be dirty, this is a good cure." ”
James excitedly took the rune paper and hugged Jiang Hao, "Jon, if it's really hard, go back to the United States, don't die in China." ”
"Okay, I promise you." Jiang Hao said with a smile.
"Also, Jiang, I have a piece of evidence for you here." James said, took out a small notebook from his pocket, Jiang Hao opened it, and it was written in English: "Member of the Foreign Affairs Research Committee of the U.S. Department of State, Jiang Hao." ”
There is also a photo of Jiang Hao on it, stamped with the official seal of the US State Department.
"This is an official diplomatic document from the U.S. Department of State, if, I mean, if you are captured, remember to take it out, I think the Japanese know that if you are not really crazy, they will not kill you, and then contact me, and I will ask the ambassador to China to pick you up." James said solemnly.
Jiang Hao felt hot when he took the certificate, no matter what, James really cared about him and gave himself a life talisman, which did not involve money and politics, but was just a personal relationship.
"I remember, by the way, you give me a life amulet, and I'll give you a life amulet." Saying that, Jiang Hao took out a folded triangular talisman, handed it to James and said: "I calculated that you will go to the battlefield, this talisman paper can bless you with peace and security, and if there is a catastrophe, it can help you avoid the past once." ”
James was very surprised to take the rune paper, "I will go to war, I am thirty years old, this piece of paper can bless me, are you sure?" ”
"Do you think my cure for your father's leg disease is amazing, and this one is the same." Jiang Hao said.
When James heard this, he immediately paid attention to it, and according to Jiang Hao's instructions, he took out the wallet and carefully put it inside, "Don't worry, I will carry it with me for the rest of my life." ”
A few days later, Jiang Hao took the remaining group of people from Hall Mercenary Company to Los Angeles by plane, boarded a freighter loaded with fighter jets and supplies, and set off for Vietnam.
Looking at the scene of the Los Angeles dock, Jiang Hao sighed in his heart, time flies so fast, it has been a year since he came to the United States, and in this year, he seems to have been making money and planning non-stop, for this moment.
Finally, it's time to go back to the motherland,
What you will have to face next may be an endless battle.
I brought 100 planes and fighters, 10 bombers, hundreds of thousands of bullets, tons of aerial bombs, little devils, grandpa went around outside, became a RMB player, bought all the equipment and came back!!
