Chapter 320 Sorry, I only sell four

Just some dust and water stains, which can be cleaned up easily.

After finishing the cleaning, he walked out of the factory and called Anfia to ask where she was.

Anfia said she was still on the way, so Lin Chen asked her to come to the previous place to pick him up and also invited her to dinner in the evening.

Anfia naturally would not refuse and agreed immediately.

Lin Chen also wanted to take this opportunity to thank her for sending him to such a faraway Luozhi Mountain early this morning and now rushing over to pick him up.

……

The next day, it was almost eleven o'clock in the afternoon.

The Linhai Military Region welcomed an important guest.

On the tarmac, Fang Weihai and three other men were standing upright in formal attire.

A special helicopter from the Northern General War Zone slowly landed. The huge propeller created a strong wind, which made the grass on the ground undulate like waves.

After the helicopter landed steadily on the ground, the speed of the propeller gradually slowed down and the wind weakened.

Then, the cabin door opened and a woman in her twenties with a low ponytail and wearing a military uniform walked down.

She has outstanding looks, although slightly inferior to An Ran, but she also has a unique charm.

Fang Weihai and the other three hurried over to greet them. The woman also stood firmly, raised her hand and saluted, "Hello, Chief!"

Fang Weihai and the other three returned the greeting and said with a smile: "Comrade Xiao Li, you must have had a hard time along the way."

"It's not hard." Li Xue responded with a bright smile.

She is a staff member of the Finance Department of the Northern Theater Command. She came here because Liu Dingcang had reported the matter to the central government yesterday and obtained approval for the purchase.

Originally, Liu Dingcang planned to come in person, but because the situation in the Abra Sea could change at any time, he was unable to get away.

So he sent Li Xue to deal with the matter.

In other words, the buyer this time is the Northern Theater Command, not the Linhai Military Region.

This is because the Linhai Military Region already has an advanced weather manufacturing radar equipment. If such a fighter is handed over to them, it may cause dissatisfaction among subordinates in other military regions and discussions that the commander-in-chief is biased.

Therefore, Liu Dingcang decided to have the Northern Theater Command purchase this batch of fighter jets.

Fang Weihai and the other three did not delve into Liu Dingcang's intentions, but just waited here for Li Xue's arrival according to his instructions.

They had met Li Xue several times before in meetings and were considered acquaintances, so there was no sense of awkwardness in the conversation.

Fang Weihai asked with a smile: "Is the chief in good health?"

Li Xue smiled and nodded in response, "Everything is fine. I have been worrying about this for some time, and I am in a good mood these two days. The chief originally planned to come here in person, but he couldn't get away because of the Soria pirates."

Fang Weihai expressed his understanding and nodded in confirmation.

They all knew that something might happen in the Abra Sea at any time. As the commander-in-chief of the Northern Theater Command, Liu Dingcang naturally had to stay there to deal with any possible situations.

Fang Weihai smiled again and said, "Comrade Xiao Li, it's almost twelve o'clock now. Why don't we eat first and then go to the factory to see the fighter planes in the afternoon?"

Li Xue also responded with a smile: "Okay, I can't go to see it on an empty stomach."

They smiled at each other, then walked towards the car, got in the car and left here, heading to the cafeteria for dinner...

It was lunchtime and the cafeteria was bustling with people.

Because they had guests visiting, Fang Weihai and his three companions did not dine in the cafeteria hall, but chose to eat in the building next door.

This scene happened to be seen by the Fire Phoenix group who came to eat.

They were curious about the identity of the female guest, especially when the rank on her shoulder straps showed that she was a captain, which caught their attention.

Tian Guo joked: "That girl is pretty!"

Tang Xinyi raised her eyebrows at An Ran and said, "An Ran, I'm on par with you!"

An Ran rolled her eyes and responded, "What are you talking about!"

But after hearing this, she couldn't help but want to compare, so she focused all her eyes on Li Xue's face and muttered in her heart: She is pretty, but not as good as me, right?
Ye Cunxin was curious about the background of this young lady, so she asked, "Who do you think this young lady is?"

Tian Guo also echoed curiously: "Yes, the captain-ranked officers and others seem to be a little too enthusiastic."

After pondering for a moment, Tan Xiaolin guessed, "This young lady was probably sent by the General War Zone to do something."

After hearing this guess, everyone felt a sense of clarity in their hearts. When they thought about it, it was indeed the case!

So they all started to guess the specific mission of this young lady...

In the first car, Fang Weihai looked around and did not see Lin Chen's car, so he knew that he had not arrived yet.

Li Xue beside him was sleeping soundly, breathing evenly, and obviously had not woken up yet.

He thought to himself that it would be inappropriate to act rashly since Lin Chen had not arrived yet; since Li Xue was asleep, he should let her enjoy a few more moments of peace.

So he picked up his phone and sent a message to the other three leaders, suggesting that they wait in the car for Lin Chen's arrival.

Time passed, and about twenty minutes later, a Hongqi HS7 slowly drove in, breaking the silence.

When Lin Chen saw the military vehicle, a smile broke out on his face.

At this time, the soldier in the last military vehicle caught this scene through the rearview mirror and quickly turned to report to the two leaders: "Commander, a car is approaching."

Upon hearing this, the two leaders immediately turned around and saw the Red Flag car through the car window.

This place is sparsely populated, and there is no one else visiting at this moment except Lin Chen.

"I'll send a message to Lao Fang and Lao Zheng to tell them that Lin Chen has arrived."

One of the leaders looked slightly excited and took out his cell phone as he spoke.

Everyone has been waiting for a long time, and he finally came.

After a brief response, they got out of the car first, followed by Zheng Nan in the second car.

In the first car, Fang Weihai received the message, turned his head slightly, and called Li Xue softly, "Comrade Xiao Li, Comrade Xiao Li."

After being called twice, Li Xue slowly woke up, with a bit of confusion in her eyes.

"What's wrong, Chief?" Her voice was hoarse from just waking up. She wanted to take a nap, but unexpectedly she fell asleep.

"Lin Chen is here, let's get off the car." Fang Weihai said with a smile.

"Okay." Although Li Xue didn't understand why, she could feel from their words that they seemed to have arrived earlier than Lin Chen.

She pushed open the door and stepped into the scorching sun. The high temperature did not keep her from staying for long, so she walked towards other leaders with Fang Weihai.

Everyone gathered together, all looking at the Red Flag car that was slowly approaching and finally stopped steadily behind the military vehicle.

The car door opened and a young man walked into everyone's view.

"So young?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Li Xue's eyes. Although she had heard of Lin Chen's name, she had never known what he looked like. She thought he was as old as those senior professors. After all, it takes decades to develop meteorological equipment, manufacture radars and fighter jets.

However, after listening to the conversation between Fang Weihai and Lin Chen, he realized that he had misunderstood.

I never expected that he was so young, even younger than me?

How did he develop weather radar and fighter jets? Is there really such a scientific research genius in the world?
Lin Chen approached and said with a smile: "Commander Fang, I didn't expect you to arrive so soon." Fang Weihai responded with a smile and immediately introduced Li Xue: "This is Comrade Li Xue who was sent by the Northern Theater Command and whom I mentioned to you on the phone. It was the Northern Theater Command that purchased the fighter jets this time, not our Linhai Military Region."

"Oh, I see." Lin Chen's eyes fell on Li Xue. She had delicate features and fair skin. Although she did not look heroic under the military uniform, she had a unique flavor.

However, compared with Enron, it seems slightly inferior.

Li Xue was also looking at Lin Chen. When she came back to her senses from her shock, she found that Lin Chen was so handsome, sunny and energetic that she couldn't help but look at him a few more times.

It was not until Fang Weihai introduced himself that she came back to her senses, her face slightly red, and she quickly introduced herself and extended her hand: "Hello, Li Xue."

"Lin Chen." He held her hand gently and then let go.

Her touch was soft as if it had no bones, so he guessed that she was a civilian in the army. Then he looked at the captain rank on her shoulder and her slightly flushed cheeks.

Lin Chen was a little surprised, but didn't think much about it. He just thought she had just got off the car and was exposed to the sun.

He turned to Fang Weihai and said, "Chief Fang, have you taken Comrade Li Xue in to have a look?"

"No, you haven't arrived yet, and we are embarrassed to go in by ourselves." Fang Weihai smiled and did not mention the fact that Li Xue was sleeping.

"What's there to be embarrassed about? You guys are being too formal!" Lin Chen said with a smile.

Hearing this, Fang Weihai and the other three felt excited.

Being distant? Lin Chen said being distant, this means he treats us as his own people!

Knowing that they had not yet taken Li Xue on a tour, Lin Chen suggested: "Let's go in."

"Okay." The group walked towards the factory gate.

Li Xue collected her thoughts. She had seen the video from Liu Dingcang before. She was shocked by the scene of the tornado exploding. She longed to see the fighter jet with her own eyes. Moreover, she came to buy it on behalf of the Northern Theater Command.

"Boom!" The rolling shutter door rose up and dust flew.

When the dust settled, Lin Chen and his group walked in. He ordered, "Chief Fang, take Comrade Li Xue to the fighter plane first, I'll go turn on the lights."

"Okay!" Fang Weihai nodded and motioned Li Xue to follow.

The room was dark and the windows were closed. One could only vaguely see five fighter jets parked there, but they were not clear.

Lin Chen walked to the switches and pushed them one by one. Suddenly, the room was brightly lit.

The five Mirage fighter jets sparkled under the white light, like scientific research exhibits, and each one exuded a cool atmosphere.

Fang Weihai and the other three witnessed the five fighter jets again, their eyes full of smiles.

However, Fang Weihai felt a little regretful, and so did the other three leaders.

They looked at each other and smiled bitterly.

After all, there is already a weather radar, which is not bad.

Cool, exactly the same as in the video, this was Li Xue’s first reaction at this moment.

At this time, Lin Chen came over. Li Xue turned and looked at him: "Boss Lin, I will transfer the money to you now."

She came here originally for the purpose of purchasing and was only representing the Northern Theater Command.

"Okay." Lin Chen smiled and nodded, but he was very excited inside.

"Fifty billion for one, five in total, that means twenty-five billion, right?" Li Xue took out her cell phone and was about to notify the Ministry of Finance to transfer the money.

But Lin Chen said, "It's not five, it's four."

"Four?" Li Xue was stunned and looked up at Lin Chen.

Fang Weihai and others looked at each other, confused.

Lin Chen explained with a smile, pointing to the last fighter: "That one is not for sale. I will only sell four to you."

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was stunned.

As military weapons, fighter jets have great destructive power and are state property. Private ownership is prohibited.

Therefore, there has never been a precedent for private ownership of fighter jets.

Fang Weihai had no idea why Lin Chen purchased the retired and scrapped F20 fighter jets, so he didn't think much about it.

Unexpectedly, he modified it into such an advanced fighter and planned to keep one.

This left them at a loss.

If an ordinary rich person owned a fighter jet, it would be easy to handle, but Lin Chen was different...

Fang Weihai and others were in a dilemma.

If they were to make the decision, although they would be somewhat unhappy, they might agree given their friendship with Lin Chen and his many assists, each of which helped them achieve merit.

However, this matter needs to be decided by the war zone chief, and it is not known whether he will agree.

If I refuse, it might hurt Lin Chen's heart and ruin their friendship.

Fang Weihai and others remained silent. Li Xue was also greatly surprised, with her eyes wide open.

She didn't expect Lin Chen to be so courageous as to want to leave behind a fighter jet.

Unlike Fang Weihai and others, she didn't know Lin Chen well, just her superficial impression of him.

But seeing Fang Weihai and others were silent, she became suspicious. Why did they remain silent after hearing this?

She thought about it for a moment, but didn't pursue it any further.

She couldn't make the decision on this matter, so she could only look at Lin Chen, her tone not as enthusiastic as before: "I need to make a phone call to ask about this matter."

"Okay." Lin Chen nodded with a faint smile on his face.

Li Xue frowned slightly, and a thought arose in her mind that the higher-ups would agree. But then she felt that she was overthinking. How could the higher-ups agree?
She walked aside and called Liu Dingcang.

After the phone rang a few times, it was finally connected.

"Hey, Xiao Li, how's the matter going?" There was a hint of urgency in Liu Dingcang's voice, and it was obvious that he was very concerned about the matter.

When Li Xue heard this, she knew that Liu Dingcang had been thinking about this matter.

She wondered in her heart, how should she approach this matter?

She took a deep breath and mustered up her courage to say, "Commander, here's the thing. Lin Chen plans to sell four fighters, but he wants to keep one for himself."

There was silence on the other end of the line for a moment, and no immediate response.

Li Xue knew about this situation, so she waited quietly without saying anything.

After more than ten seconds, Liu Dingcang's voice came again: "If he wants to keep one, then let him keep it. If he wants to keep four, then let him keep four."

"What?" Li Xue was shocked when she heard that. Her beautiful eyes widened instantly and she could not believe her ears.

Private individuals are not allowed to own military weapons such as fighter jets, but the leader actually agreed to it?

"You don't understand. The specific situation cannot be explained clearly over the phone. I will tell you the reason when you come back. Now go and tell Lin Chen, 'Okay, then buy four.' Remember, your expression and tone must show enthusiasm." Liu Dingcang's voice carried an unquestionable commanding tone.

Although Li Xue was shocked and found it hard to accept, she still nodded: "I understand."
