America's Mountains Are King

Chapter 15
Qi Ping is very busy now, and this guy's ambition is not small.

Known for its warm climate and sandy beaches, San Diego has a wealth of tourist resources; it's clear that this city of sports has no shortage of entertainment.The main sports here are football, ice hockey, baseball, basketball, rugby, fishing, golf, as well as racing, horse racing, mountain climbing, water skiing and other activities.

So as long as you want to play, there will definitely be no shortage of fun games; although it is not the best time to be at the beach, there are still some other fun activities.

The Qiping Forest Farm is in Ramona, only about an hour's drive from San Diego.

"Hi, man." Seeing the flush pickup arrive at the parking lot, a long-haired rich second generation who just got off the Mercedes-Benz SLS sports car greeted, "I didn't expect such a coincidence that we met again."

"Dude, I hope we can cooperate happily this time. I don't want to continue to be taught a lesson." Qi Ping laughed loudly. This is an acquaintance and a difficult brother.

"I hope so." The rich second generation also laughed. Now that I think about it, it's really an interesting thing. At least he and Qi Ping's acquaintance can be regarded as difficult brothers and sisters. "How is it? Now I'm familiar with the process of the exam. ?"

"I think it's okay, I won't make those low-level mistakes this time." Qi Ping smiled and bumped fists with the rich second generation, and formally introduced himself, "Qi Ping, you can call me together."

"Steve Xiao." The rich second generation also introduced himself, and now he and Qiping know each other thoroughly.

In fact, Qi Ping is doing a big thing now, that is, he is learning how to drive a helicopter; although he stubbornly thinks that he is because of the needs of forestry work, but sometimes he must admit that he also wants to experience A joy of flying a helicopter.Now is to plan ahead, get the driver's license first.

In fact, there are differences in helicopter driver's licenses. At the beginning, Qi Ping was naturally at a loss in the face of various aviation schools and intricate regulations, but after summarizing, he basically mastered the process.Qiping is now studying a single-engine fixed-wing private pilot license, not a commercial driver's license; that is to say, Qiping is studying the most basic driver's license, but it is enough.

Qiping chose to choose Part 141 aviation schools certified by the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), because they have more formal teaching facilities, although the courses set up by such aviation schools must be reviewed and approved by the FAA, so the content taught Slightly mechanical and expensive.But it is also worth the money, because the learning time is longer and more standardized.

From the initial registration, submission of information, payment, etc., and then to obtain special permission issued by the US Transportation Security Administration (TSA), the next step is to choose an aviation school, and obtain the code information of its courses and health check certificates, etc. of.

After entering the aviation school and completing the ground courses required by the FAA, students can make an appointment to take the flight theory test at the test center authorized by the FAA.The exam not only requires students to memorize knowledge points, but also requires students to have a deep understanding of relevant theoretical knowledge and the ability to analyze and process.

Although this is a lot of students who can pass it at one time, the theoretical knowledge should not be too difficult; but there are also some people who failed, such as Qi Ping and this Steve.Now they need to retake the exam. It is said that only two students in their batch of exams failed, and they were obviously Qi Ping and Steve.

The other students have all started to learn some piloting skills, but these two guys still need to continue to take exams, the most basic theoretical exams.

"Do you need to celebrate? I know some nice places, just by the sea." Qi Ping was very happy, because he finally passed the theory test, and he could start more training soon; at this time, it seemed that Steve was happier Husband, because he also passed the test, "I can't wait. If I can fly the plane alone, the first thing I will do is fly to the beach. This may be the coolest thing I have done in 23 years!"

Qi Ping thought about it, anyway, he really has nothing to do now, so he can still go out for a stroll; don’t look at it these days, it seems to be very leisurely, but Qi Ping really needs to do a lot of things, basically nothing What time to rest.As for going out to play, he really didn't; because he was very busy, and also because he didn't know the place well.

Well now, this Steve should be a rich second generation, and he seems to be the type who can play very well; the most important thing is that this guy feels pretty good after a little contact with him. What a new friend, so when he meets a friend who may be more talkative, Qi Ping is of course willing to make friends. He doesn't want to be a hermit or something. Friends are still needed, so that life will be more interesting.

"Qi, are you learning how to pilot a helicopter for work?" Sitting by the beach, basking in the sun, and of course drinking some drinks; the atmosphere is very good, but Steve seems a little surprised, he didn't Thinking that Qi Ping actually chose to learn helicopters for work.

In fact, it’s no wonder that Steve felt strange. There are a lot of helicopters in the United States, especially those ranches, farms, etc., which have a lot of helicopter jobs.But Steve is very clear, that is, the aircraft they are learning now is definitely not the type that works on the ranch, it is more like a tourist and sports aircraft.

"I'm running a forest farm now. You know, it's not a small area. So I need some tools now, so that I can better pay attention to the situation in the forest farm. Of course, the scenery there is very good, and I can Fly a helicopter to enjoy these beautiful scenery." Qi Ping laughed out loud, the helicopter is used for work, and of course it is also used for playing games.

"Wow, this is really cool. I think I'm looking forward to it, is your tree farm in Ramona? I think I'm interested now, maybe I can go there for a nice weekend." Steve was a little surprised Just like he didn't expect Qiping to learn how to fly a helicopter because of work, he also didn't expect Qiping to have a forest farm.

This is California, and it can be said to be one of the most expensive places in the United States. Being able to have a large forest farm here shows that it really has a lot of value.Obviously, this seemingly low-key Qi is a rich man, a rich man in the true sense.

"Qi, compared to you, I think I am much worse. This is your property, and you have every right to control your wealth. I, maybe my father has a lot of money, but it has nothing to do with me now. I only have a nice car, and it’s actually just a nice car.” Steve is a little envious, although he is a rich second generation, but not every rich second generation spends money lavishly, or in other words, a lot The rich second generation usually spend money in moderation.

"You were born with a golden key in your mouth, and you have been exposed to the best things since you were a child. I don't think you need to envy me at all. And I also know that maybe your father has some requirements for you now, but in fact I want to be When you show maturity, you will have coveted wealth." Qi Ping laughed loudly, his current social status is indeed not low, but obviously he still can't compare with the rich second generation Steve.

"No, no, you know what I mean. There are many times when I want to do something, but my father will not agree. So, my pocket money is really good compared to many people; but the actual This money is not enough, I don't have my own property, so I don't have much say at all. Unlike you, no one can stop you if you want to spend money." Steve said sourly, who made him rich The second generation is the rich second generation who ate his father.

As for Qi Ping, this is the rich generation, he has the right to control his own wealth, he can do whatever he wants.Because he is rich, because it is his own money!
