Chapter 137 He Is the End of the Last Era! And You Are the Beginning of This Era!
"Mr. Qian, aren't you afraid of starving me to death?"
After a long while, Su Heng looked at Qian Zhizhong and spoke faintly.
Su Heng naturally knew about the water shortage in the north of Longguo. He had done research in this area when he was doing seawater desalination before.
But at that time, he was too weak to take over this market. Later, he made a fortune abroad and no longer had the mind to do so.
Now the document brought by Qian Zhizhong, to put it bluntly, is to directly hand over the market of hundreds of millions of people in the north to him!
What does so many people mean?
Even if he only makes one dollar from one person a day, he will make hundreds of millions a day! !
Is one dollar a lot for one person?
In fact, it is not much. Indeed, if one dollar is used to buy tap water, many places can even buy half a ton!
Under normal circumstances, it is difficult for one person to use up half a ton of water a day!
Even a family may not be able to use up half a ton of water in a few days.
But how big is the urban tap water system?
How much water is used for daily life?
Those restaurants, factories, various car washes, power plants, fire protection systems, sanitation systems, urban ecosystems, etc.
The amount of water used in these places, especially in factories and power plants, can only be described as horrible!
The interests involved are at least in the hundreds of billions!
In recent years, Longguo has invested hundreds of billions in solving the problem of water shortage in the north!
Now, although Qian Zhizhong asked him to solve the problem of water shortage in the north, the document has clearly stated that all factory equipment, engineering, and labor costs are fully borne by the state!
He only needs to be responsible for building the desalination plant, and then wait for the money to be collected!
This is more than just stuffing fat meat into his mouth, this is simply for fear that he can't eat it, and forcing the meat into his stomach with a bamboo tube!
To be honest, Su Heng himself was a little scared. With such a huge profit, he was afraid that he would eat too much...
Facing Su Heng's gloomy eyes, Qian Zhizhong smiled, then patted Su Heng on the shoulder and said:
"Don't worry, this document is here, even I can't do anything to you!"
"And look at the content of the document, this water company is a state-owned enterprise of Longguo..."
Hearing this, Su Heng's mouth twitched slightly.
Longguo state-owned enterprise?
If he hadn't read the document, he would have believed it.
Just kidding, who has ever seen a state-owned enterprise with 99% private shares?
Anyway, Su Heng said that he had lived for more than 20 years and had never seen such a state-owned enterprise.
"Okay, don't say anything else, this task is handed over to you"
When Su Heng was silent, Qian Zhizhong's voice sounded again.
Without waiting for Su Heng to say anything more, Qian Zhizhong continued:
"And Xiao Su, don't underestimate this task. The situation in our north is much more serious than you think."
"Not only industrial water, but even residential water is already a bit stretched!"
"There is also agricultural water, which is even more serious. Residential water can be saved, and industrial water can be collected by tightening the belt, but agricultural water is related to the food of hundreds of millions of people!"
"Food is the first necessity of the people. If there is a problem in this area, Xiao Su, you should be able to think of the consequences, right?"
"In recent years, our country has been trying to solve Hundreds of billions of dollars have been spent on this issue, but it has not been completely solved until now."
"To this day, there are still a large number of residents and farmers who suffer from water problems, and a large amount of food dies every year due to lack of water and drought!"
"Water seems unimportant. Many people usually leave the faucet open without a pipe when washing their hands, but if you take it seriously, it is the source of life on which we depend for survival!"
At the end, Qian Zhizhong patted Su Heng on the shoulder and said in a deep voice:
"Xiao Su, your task is very heavy..."
Hearing this, Su Heng also fell into silence.
After a long time, Su Heng also nodded solemnly and said, "I understand, don't worry, I will handle this matter."
With the country's support behind him, Su Heng no longer worried about whether he would touch other people's cakes.
He took on the task of water shortage in the north, and similarly, he also had to eat this big piece of fat meat!
To be honest, Su Heng is not a money-grubber.
For him, money is enough, but it doesn't mean he will dislike too much money!
Han Xin recruited soldiers, the more the better!
Seeing Su Heng's promise, Qian Zhizhong nodded with satisfaction.
To be honest, this task was forcibly won by a group of old military buddies.
Just as Su Heng thought, Longguo has never had a case of a state-owned enterprise with a 99% stake held by an individual.
There is no precedent for the state to bear all the expenses and then an individual to sit and collect the money!
More importantly, the northern part of Longguo has such a large area and a population of hundreds of millions!
The water source problem of so many people cannot be handed over to one person to control!
This is not only a matter of interests, but also a matter of national security!
However, under the efforts and guarantees of a group of old buddies in their national defense army, coupled with the personality and moral level shown by Su Heng in the past, and the various epoch-making contributions made by Su Heng before, after several days of meetings, this so-called task was finally decided!
This is not only to solve the problem of water shortage for hundreds of millions of people in the north, but also to compensate the Dragon Kingdom for Su Heng’s past contributions!
"correct!"
At this moment, Qian Zhizhong suddenly thought of something, and then said:
"Xiao Su, come here this time, I also brought you the things that Lao Qin promised before..."
Hearing this, Su Heng was startled, and then quickly realized, was it that fighter jet?
Noticing Su Heng's reaction, Qian Zhizhong did not show off and said with a smile:
"Yes, that's the No. 8 fighter plane."
After listening to what Qian Zhizhong said, Su Heng understood.
Then there was a hint of interest.
Qin Shan had promised this fighter plane to him several months ago.
It had even been prepared for him a long time ago, but he had been busy in the past and had no time to receive it, so he had postponed it until now.
But he didn't expect that Qian Zhizhong would send it to him specially.
Thinking of this, Su Heng stood up and walked out of the airport.
Seeing this, Qian Zhizhong also smiled and stepped up to follow.
It didn't take long for the two of them to arrive at the airport behind the industrial park and saw the slender fighter jet standing quietly at the edge of the airport.
Technology aside, the appearance of the No. 8 fighter is indeed pleasing to the eye!
The slender hardcore style body gives people a strong sense of mechanical beauty at first glance.
Even Su Heng had seen the more advanced Sword Ten and Sword Eleven, and even personally developed the Sword Ten and Sword Eleven modifications, and even the Sword Twenty-One fighter jet.
But when he saw this fighter jet that had shouldered the responsibility of an era, Su Heng still had ups and downs in his heart.
"Huh?"
At this moment, Su Heng keenly noticed something special about this fighter plane.
"This is?"
Looking at the stars on the fighter plane, Su Heng was a little confused.
"That's a military medal!"
Facing Su Heng's doubts, Qian Zhizhong said solemnly.
"In our National Defense Forces Air Force, there has always been a tradition that after a fighter aircraft damages or destroys an enemy aircraft, it will leave corresponding honors on the aircraft!"
"And of these stars, a solid star means that this fighter plane shot down an enemy plane, and a hollow star means that it damaged an enemy plane!"
"The three solid stars and two empty stars on this No. 8 fighter plane represent the three enemy planes that this fighter plane shot down and the two that were damaged!"
Hearing this, Su Heng was silent.
He had no idea that the seemingly ordinary, even old-looking fighter plane in front of him would have such a glorious history!
Although Su Heng had never heard of any battle taking place in any sky over the years, it was obvious that Qian Zhizhong could not lie to him about such a thing.
In other words, in a place that ordinary people are completely unaware of, this fighter plane and the pilot on it had a brush with death at least five times!
Protect the peace of the Dragon Kingdom with your life!
"Mr. Qian, this is a heroic fighter plane. Isn't it appropriate to give it to me?"
After hesitating for a moment, Su Heng finally spoke.
"No." As soon as Su Heng finished speaking, Qian Zhizhong shook his head and said, "He is a hero, but now, he is old and it's time to retire."
"And next, the young men who are about to be born here will take over the responsibilities of this old hero and shoulder the heavy responsibility of protecting the lives and property of hundreds of millions of people in the Dragon Kingdom!"
"I believe that even his old buddy will be relieved to see him being sent here!"
"He is the end of an era, and you, Xiao Su, you are the beginning of this era!"
…
The beginning of an era!
A few short characters are like drums in the evening and bells in the morning!
It's mind-blowing!
Even Su Heng, who has experienced countless things, feels a little excited at this moment!
For a long time, Su Heng suppressed the blood in his heart, then looked at the fighter in front of him and said solemnly:
"I understand. Don't worry, Mr. Qian. In this era, this old hero will not let him down!"
"I promise you, and this old hero!"
Seeing this, Qian Zhizhong also had a thick smile on his face.
Although Su Heng did not talk at length about great principles and wisdom, these two sentences were enough!
Turning to look at the fighter in front of him, Qian Zhizhong stretched out his right hand with complicated eyes and carefully touched the fuselage of the fighter, as if caressing a loved one.
After a long time, a faint murmur quietly emerged from his mouth:
"Xiaojun, I found your successor for you. Your spirit in heaven should be able to see it, right?"
"Don't worry, someone is protecting this country for you!"
As if hearing a murmur, a figure wearing a flight suit and holding a flight helmet quietly appeared above the fighter plane.
After appearing, the figure glanced at the two people under the fighter plane.
A smile quietly appeared on his face.
The next moment, a breeze blew.
The faint shadow slowly disappeared with the breeze...
