Chapter 1364 I Treat You as a Brother, but You Want to Be My Father-in-Law

After consulting Dad Zhu's opinion, Du Fei decided to go to North Africa.

But this time I'm not in a big hurry. I can calmly arrange things at home first.

In addition, after this trip, Du Fei does not plan to take the Lun-8 again. It is not that the Lun-8 is bad, but there is a better one.

After Siam this time, the reputation of Yun-8 is already big enough, and there is no need to advertise anymore, but the new K-8 needs to increase its popularity.

In the few days since Du Fei returned, the second and third prototypes have been produced and will soon enter a new round of reliability testing.

Du Fei made a mental calculation and happened to take flight No. 1 to Ribia. In order to ensure safety, he specially found a time to put the plane into his carry-on space and inspect it.

Because there are no particularly major technical changes, and the redesigned fuselage drawings have been optimized in the portable space, there are no structural problems in itself, and there are no problems in putting it into the portable space this time.

Then there is the home. Needless to say, Zhu Ting must be comforted.

I just came back from Nanyang, and I am going to North Africa again. I stayed at home for a month.

In addition, Qin Huairou also has to take care of things a bit. There is a saying that Qin Huairou has been quite law-abiding in recent years.

Although she was the first to follow Du Fei, she was still lagging behind the others.

Later, Zhu Li and Wang Yufen both gave birth to children for Du Fei, but Qin Huairou was silent.

It's not a matter of age. Qin Huairou is only in her thirties. In this era, it's not unusual for someone to have a child in their forties, as long as it's not the first time.

Moreover, under the nourishment of Du Fei over the years, her physical condition has improved, which is not much different from when she was in her twenties. She must have taken measures.

In the final analysis, she couldn't leave the capital.

Wang Yufen was able to give birth because she was willing to leave the capital and go to Nanyang.

Qin Huairou couldn't let go of her 'family' in Beijing, and Qin Huairou and Wang Yufen had different backgrounds.

When Wang Yufen went to Nanyang, she could actually get help from her family. Everyone in the Wang family got there and quickly got away with it.

Qin Huairou does not have this convenience. Her family has been an authentic farmer for several generations, and none of her brothers, cousins, and uncles are as successful as the Wang family.

It's hard to find someone like her who marries an ordinary worker in the city, and she's considered outstanding.

If she really wants to go to Nanyang, she can only rely on herself. She will not be able to build new connections in a short period of time, and it is impossible to use her relationship with Du Fei like Wang Yufen did to quickly make the Wang family a new upstart in Kuching.

Therefore, Qin Huairou can only stay in the capital. She has a family, connections, and relationships here. She is Section Chief Qin. At least she is well-known in the steel rolling mill. She can find a way to do anything she wants.

The prerequisite for her to stay is that she cannot have Du Fei's children. Although Zhu Ting did not express it clearly, this is an unspoken rule.

Qin Huairou is a sensible person and has her own choice.

In the small courtyard of Mianmian Hutong.

The trees in the yard are still lush and lush. Qin Huairou re-paved the floor tiles a while ago. Gray cement tiles replaced the original red brick floor, which looks cleaner and neater.

Du Fei was sitting on the pony, with a kebab stove in front of him that Qin Huairou had hired someone from the steel rolling mill to make.

Du Fei was grilling and eating at the same time. There was cumin chili noodles and a bottle of Jingba Liang beer on the small table next to him.

Qin Huairou sat next to him, resting his elbows on his knees, holding his chin and looking at Du Fei's kebabs with a bit of ecstasy. There was also a bottle of beer beside him, and his cheeks were slightly flushed.

Du Fei spread the cumin and said, "By the way, I met the elder two days ago. I heard that the matter between Xiao Dang and their Xiao Jun has been settled?"

Qin Huairou said "Yes": "The two children get along very well. As a mother, I don't want to be a bad person. Besides, the father-in-law and the mother know everything. Xiaojun has been sensible since he was a child. I also follow Xiaodang." rest assured."

Du Fei nodded, this is indeed true.

Regardless of current standards or in the future, the conditions of the first man's family are not bad.

Now the first master is not just a retired eighth-level fitter, he is a serious deputy factory director. With the level of the 8270 factory, the first master has retired, at least to the deputy prefecture level. Not to mention a senior official, he is definitely not an ordinary family.

Xiaojun currently looks good in studies and has good character. Although he did not go to college, he is one of the best in the technical school of 8270 Factory.

More importantly, according to the current trend, as the economy picks up and employment demand expands, the gap for talents with higher educational levels and learning abilities becomes larger. Some people have begun to propose that they hope to resume the college entrance examination and increase the supply of talents.

This certainly wouldn't have worked in previous years, but it's not impossible now.

In the final analysis, the economic foundation determines everything. Many things are impossible without money, but they are not a problem with money.

Du Fei estimates that based on the current situation, there will likely be something to say about the college entrance examination next year.

At the beginning, it will probably coexist with the current recommendation of workers, peasants and soldiers, and then gradually resume the unified examination.

By then, with Xiaojun's foundation, it may not be impossible to get into college.

Xiaodang, on the other hand, inherited her mother's beauty, but her studies are average, only at an average level. If she really wants to take the college entrance examination, there is probably no hope.

But there is no need to worry about work. After graduating from technical school, you can go to work in an aircraft manufacturing factory. No matter what position you are in, you will be first-class.

Qin Huairou also smiled when she mentioned this. The eldest son was already settled, and now the second daughter was almost there, except for the little Huaihua who was still young and had just entered junior high school.

Speaking of which, Du Fei hadn't seen Xiao Huaihua for a while. Since he moved out of the courtyard, Du Fei hadn't been back much.

In his impression, Huaihua was still a runny-nosed little follower.

But now it must be different. With Qin Huairou's conditions, she is one of the best in the steel mill circle, and she has everything.

Du Fei asked casually: "Didn't you let your child go to the Children's Palace to learn some special skills?"

Qin Huairou was stunned and blinked: "What special skills?"

Du Fei glanced at her and continued to stare at the kebabs on the grill in front of him: "Just singing and playing the piano, etc., when you go to school and work in the future, you can also make a show at the year-end tea party, and girls can also improve their temperament."

Qin Huairou had no such awareness at all. This was related to her background. Even if she had the conditions, she would not have the idea of ​​letting her children learn singing and dancing.

Including the children of cadres in the steel mill, there were not many who learned special skills in this era. Most of them were left alone and ran around after school.

Only some intellectuals or literary and artistic families would pay attention to this.

Qin Huairou completely trusted Du Fei blindly. Du Fei mentioned it casually, but it made Xiao Huaihua suffer.

Qin Huairou made up her mind and asked someone to let Xiao Huaihua learn when she returned.

"A-choo~"

In the courtyard, Xiao Huaihua, who was skipping rubber rope with her friends, suddenly sneezed. She was skipping well, but it turned yellow in an instant, which made the little girl confused.

But she didn't know that because of Du Fei's words, her after-school time would be gone~

The mutton skewers were cooked, Du Fei put them on the plate, and drank the remaining beer in the bottle in one breath.

Qin Huairou got up and pulled out the hanging basket from the wellhead, took out a bottle from it, opened it and handed it to Du Fei, and asked: "How long will this trip take?"

Du Fei wiped the black ash on the signature head of the mutton skewers, pulled two skewers in a row, chewed them and said vaguely: "More than a month~ The earliest I have to return is the end of October."

Qin Huairou said "hmm".

Du Fei swallowed the meat, took a sip of the newly opened, cold beer, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Qin Huairou said, "I'm fine, it's just that girl Jingrou..."

"She?" Du Fei took a bunch of meat skewers and lowered his head to line them up on the stove: "What's wrong with her?"

Qin Huairou smiled, "What else can I do? It's just that thing~"

Du Fei didn't respond. Qin Jingrou's appearance appeared in his mind. When he first crossed Qin Jingrou, he was less than 20 years old. Now seven or eight years have passed.

...

A few days later, Du Fei took a K-8 passenger plane to Libya. The route of this flight was a bit complicated.

Du Fei's plane first went to Xinjiang Province, filled up the fuel and went to Pakistan, then went to Babylon through Persia, and finally arrived in Tripoli, Libya.

After taking off from Xinjiang Province, it did not land again, and flew more than 7,500 kilometers in one breath, fully demonstrating the long endurance of the K-8 passenger plane.

The whole journey took a total of sixteen hours.

It was late at night when we arrived in Xinjiang Province. We stayed at the airport for two hours, refueled, and took off again.

It was almost noon the next day when the plane finally arrived at Tripoli Airport.

Du Fei sat by the window, looking at the Mediterranean scenery below.

To the south of the blue sea is a large golden desert, with only a few green embellishments along the coast.

Tripoli is the largest of them.

Next to it are two MiG-21s accompanying them.

More than half an hour ago,

Entering the Libyan airspace, Colonel Ka sent two fighters to escort, and the treatment was directly full.

Then the plane landed and slowly stopped on the airport apron.

Through the window, you can see the welcoming team of the brigade, and there are Chinese banners behind: "Welcome the most sincere friends, the most reliable comrades, the most selfless comrades..."

As the plane stopped steadily, Du Fei felt ashamed when he saw these banners. He was really not that good~

After a while, the cabin door opened, and Du Fei and his entourage walked out.

Du Fei brought quite a few people with him this time, more than 40 in total.

Since he knew that Colonel Ka wanted to speed up the production of the aircraft manufacturing plant, Du Fei had to make some gestures.

Not only did he bring some technical personnel, but he also selected several Libyan interns with suitable grades and backgrounds to accompany him. If he promoted these people, I believe Libya would be happier.

After all, who doesn't want to see their children outside and gain recognition through hard work?

The moment the cabin was opened, Du Fei felt a wave of heat coming towards him.

Unlike the heat in Nanyang, Libya is another kind of heat in the desert.

Du Fei was young and strong, but he didn't care about it. He trotted down the gangway with brisk steps.

Colonel Ka led people out from under the awning, still wearing a dark green military uniform, half-sleeves revealing muscular arms, and thick curly hair made him look very energetic.

Du Fei came to the bottom of the gangway, and Colonel Ka just came over, and the two came up and hugged each other.

Friends, brothers, and the most reliable comrades-in-arms are not just words.

"May is worse than Ade!" Colonel Ka patted Du Fei's back excitedly.

Du Fei also called him a brother. No matter in the Middle East or North Africa, big households are good brothers.

After a round of greetings, Du Fei shook hands warmly with Hashim who was standing next to Colonel Ka. Compared with Colonel Ka, Hashim was the real relative.

Last time, this guy even openly and secretly promoted his daughter to Du Fei. She was fifteen years old and beautiful.

Du Fei looked at the photo and found that she was indeed very beautiful, but it was a pity that he was too young to make a move.

Besides, it's not like that. I treat you as a brother, but you treat me as my father-in-law.

It's just that Colonel Ka is present, so it's not appropriate for the two of them to be too intimate. They just stop at a certain point and introduce others.

Finally, Colonel Ka's eyes fell on the plane behind Du Fei.

For this flight, Du Fei specially asked the Beijing Aircraft Factory to paint the lower blue and upper white, and marked the model of YK-8 on the tail of the aircraft.

Under the sunshine of the Mediterranean, the plane looks quite refreshing and beautiful.

More importantly, Colonel Ka didn't know about this plane in advance. He thought Du Fei would take the Y-8 this time, after all, it was Du Fei's flagship product.

It had just been in the limelight in Siam, and even the gunships known as the "Death Scythe" and "Dark Night Demon" were modified from the Y-8.

If it was the Y-8, Colonel Ka would definitely not be surprised, after all, he already had a gunship and bought a lot of Y-8 transport planes.

Unexpectedly, Du Fei did not follow the routine and actually took a new type of aircraft that he had never seen before.

And Colonel Ka knew that this flight was not short, at least more than 7,000 kilometers.

He couldn't help but ask what kind of plane this was?

Du Fei smiled and thought to himself that he was waiting for you to ask, and replied: "Come on, I'll take you up to have a look~" and pulled Colonel Ka up.

Colonel Ka was also young, so he didn't have so many concerns. Besides, this was Libya, and he didn't worry about his own safety at all.

Following Du Fei up, he came to the inside of the plane.

The inside was still relatively simple, but the layout was also there. There were relatively spacious business seats in the front and ordinary seats in the back.

Du Fei introduced: "This is the latest K-8 passenger plane designed and manufactured by my aircraft manufacturer. It can accommodate up to 140 people and has a maximum range of 8,000 kilometers. This trip flew directly from China and did not stop anywhere in the middle."

It was true to say that staying in Xinjiang Province was also in China, and it did fly all the way across the border.

Colonel Ka's eyes lit up. This is a passenger plane, not a transport plane.

Although transport planes are important and strategically significant, the market is completely different from that of passenger planes.

Moreover, producing large passenger planes is a sign of a superpower. If his aircraft manufacturing plant can also produce them...

Thinking of this, Colonel Ka couldn't help swallowing his saliva and holding Du Fei's hand, saying, "Du, can I produce this passenger plane?"

Du Fei thought that Colonel Ka was still the same Colonel Ka, and he didn't wait for the hair to dry before washing the child.

Now his aircraft assembly plant has just written half a stroke, and it has begun to think about producing passenger planes.

But it's good this way. If there is no Colonel Ka, where can Du Fei make money~

Patting Colonel Ka on the shoulder with his backhand: "Omar, of course, we are brothers!"

Colonel Ka laughed: "Yes, brothers!"

The two came out of the plane and walked down the gangway. Du Fei said, "By the way, I brought you a gift this time."

Colonel Ka was in a good mood, thinking about what it would be like to take a plane produced in his country when he visited in the future.

Although Libya is a younger brother in the Arab world, no matter how rich and powerful the Aiji, Babylon, and Shat are, can you produce airplanes?

Colonel Ka was stunned for a moment, curious about what gifts Du Fei prepared. At his level, there was nothing worth mentioning by Du Fei, which must be something special.

Du Fei kept it a secret: "It will be there tomorrow, and you will know then."

Colonel Ka did not ask much, and directly took Du Fei to the palace of the former King of Libya to entertain him.

"Du, this was originally the Governor's Palace of the Ottoman Empire, and later became the King's Palace." Gaddafi introduced this magnificent palace. Although the scale is not too large, it is absolutely luxurious, and gold can be seen everywhere.

Du Fei nodded repeatedly, not stingy with flattery, anyway, it is right to praise it.

At noon, he had a meal of Libyan specialties. Du Fei was not picky about meat and vegetables, and could eat anything.

Last time, I had Aiji dishes with my mother Barak. Libyan dishes are somewhat similar to Aiji dishes, and they tasted pretty good.

After resting for more than an hour after the meal, I was invited by Colonel Ka again.

Libya was once a territory of the Ottoman Empire, and the custom of bathing has always been popular among the nobles.

This time Du Fei came, and Colonel Ka must entertain him well.

The original bathroom in the palace was ready-made, and the service staff were all young and beautiful girls. There were only Du Fei and Colonel Ka in the bath.

The bath with colorful mosaics looked magnificent, and a fountain gushed out from the middle of the round pool.

Colonel Ka had dark skin, his head leaned against the edge of the bath, his eyes squinted through the water vapor and looked at the high dome above the bath, and said in a deep voice: "Du, you know~ Until now, I can't believe that I will become the owner of this place, this bath, this palace, this... Guo family..."

Du Fei leaned on the side, and taking a bath here was no different from taking a bath in the big bathhouse in the capital.

Du Fei said: "This is fate, Omar. If someone told me a few years ago that I would be able to bathe and chat with a foreign leader in the future, I would not believe it."

"Fate~" Colonel Ka repeated, moving his hands in the pool: "Do you believe in fate?"

Du Fei said lightly: "No."

Colonel Ka was stunned and couldn't help laughing: "I don't believe it either." Then he sat up straight in the water and began to praise the gunboat leisurely.

Before the gunships came out, Colonel Ka bought five. Later, when Du Fei used the gunships in the ‘Guixu Islands’ and ‘Kuching Night’, news spread. In addition, Colonel Ka got a taste of success with the first five gunships, so he bought another 20.

It can be said that Colonel Ka is currently the largest user of gunships besides the US military.

When mentioning this, Colonel Ka was full of praise.

However, Du Fei heard that what he really wanted to say was not the gunships at all, it was just an excuse.

The implication was that he hoped Du Fei could speed up the progress of the aircraft manufacturing plant and produce results as soon as possible.

Before coming, Du Fei carefully checked the intelligence from Libya.

In fact, Colonel Ka was under a lot of pressure.

Although he overthrew the king, his victory itself was somewhat accidental. Objectively speaking, the probability of success with Colonel Ka's strength was very low.

It can only be said that his enemies were too weak, which led to the current situation.

But it also made Colonel Ka's power not as stable as it seemed on the surface. If he wanted to gain wider support, he had to make achievements.

This is why Colonel Ka never blinks when it comes to spending money.

Previously, he spent $600 million to buy missiles, and later spent $100 million to participate in Du Fei's large aircraft project. In the final analysis, it was all for reputation.

Including this aircraft manufacturing plant now.

Doesn't Colonel Ka know that this aircraft manufacturing plant is actually a parts assembly plant?

Even if there is more luck involved in reaching this position, it cannot be denied that he is a great man.

Colonel Ka knows very well that with Libya's industrial base, it does not have the conditions to produce large aircraft.

However, what he wants is the sensational effect of turning the impossible into the possible.

He wants the people to worship him, trust him, support him, and oppose all enemies who oppose him!

Du Fei understands his mind: "Omar, this is no problem. I came here this time to speed up the landing progress of the factory here. We will work on site and make up for what is lacking. We must ensure that it will be put into production next year."

Colonel Ka's eyes lit up.

Du Fei's attitude made him very satisfied. There was no shirking or excuses. This is a true friend.

However, Du Fei was not making big promises. After expressing his opinion, he said seriously: "However, the aircraft is a complex and huge system. It is definitely technically difficult to directly use the H-8. I suggest that it is best to start with the easy ones and then the difficult ones, starting with the H-7 and the Y-8."

Colonel Ka is knowledgeable about technology. The H-7 is fine, but when he heard about the Y-8, he got excited: "Speaking of this, I haven't congratulated you on your great victory in Siam."

Du Fei smiled.

Colonel Ka was still not satisfied, and danced with joy: "Really! I can't describe it in words. Your action this time is simply amazing! I saw many photos, using a large air fleet to raid the airport... It was simply a perfect tactical action. Du, you are really a genius! The Y-8 is a perfect transport aircraft. I asked Hashim to order 60 before. In the future, I hope to assemble 200, no~400 Y-8s in our factory!"

This is what Du Fei wants. In fact, exporting parts and assembling them in Libya's factory, Du Fei earns as much as directly exporting the whole machine.

Du Fei said: "Of course the Y-8 is the best. Believe me, Omar, at your National Day celebration next year, your people will be able to see the Y-8 assembled in your factory flying over the sky of Tripoli. And this is the best gift that you, the new king, bring to Libya."

"New king?" Colonel Ka was stunned for a moment. He did not have the ambition to be the "King of Kings" at this time. He was inevitably surprised to hear this title.

Du Fei smiled and said: "Don't question it. You are the new king here. The people here need a legendary hero."

Colonel Ka's expression changed from surprise to a smile, as if he saw the scene described by Du Fei, which made his breathing heavy.

That night, Du Fei stayed in Colonel Ka's palace.

After confirming that Du Fei knew what he wanted and was willing to help, he was even more enthusiastic about Du Fei.

In return, Du Fei rushed early the next day and came to the airport in advance to wait for the gift he carefully prepared for Colonel Ka.
