Chapter 673: Only the Name and the Tool Cannot Be Shared with Others
The Hercules, which is huge and bloated, looks much more powerful than the Hound.
In fact, the original intentions of the design of the two aircraft are completely different, and they are completely two different routes.
The aviation industry has been developing for more than ten years, and the technical reserves of the Great Xia Empire are sufficient, so new products have begun to spurt out.
Multi-threaded research and development has gradually begun to show its power.
But now, Qin's sight is temporarily attracted by the Hercules.
The white paint makes the Hercules look very eye-catching.
Of course, what is more eye-catching is its ability and... price.
Qin just took a look at the cost and maintenance bill and immediately gave up the idea of another batch.
The Great Xia Empire has money, but there are many places to spend money. It is impossible to continue to invest in a certain field without limit.
Balance and moderation are issues that rulers need to weigh.
If it was just the Minister of the Air Force, Qin would keep submitting reports to apply for funds, but he is also the heir to this country.
"Let's produce twenty first!"
Qin compromised helplessly. In fact, this number is enough for the time being.
Even for an entire division, it only takes about three transportations to complete the delivery.
This can temporarily meet his needs. The enemies in the colonies are not worthy of his increased investment.
In fact, he came here today to see the performance of the Hercules.
"Is the ammunition stored in the New World enough?"
The Air Force has a fighter formation stationed in the New World and has established several primary airports. The storage of ammunition and aviation fuel is already underway.
"Minister, 40% of the planned goals have been completed. Give us another six months and we will definitely be able to complete all the reserve plans." The responsible official is very familiar with the data.
No one tried to fool Qin. He personally participated in the establishment of the Air Force Department and was very familiar with the respective data and details.
After reading various reports, Qin actually had a rough idea in his mind.
In fact, he had never experienced a war, and he was a little unsure in his heart.
Therefore, he needed to confirm the preparation situation many times.
This is not a lack of confidence. Since there is no experience, it is even more necessary to lay a solid foundation and then defeat the enemy in an upright manner.
Experience, don't you have it?
Qin always remembers to remain in awe, but not lose confidence.
It was already afternoon when he returned to the palace from the Air Force Department.
On the way, he saw the Times newspaper he found today in the car.
He smiled knowingly at the appeal of the Pan-Daxia people and the discussion of the human rights of the colonial Daxia people.
So, how important it is to choose the right wife can be seen now.
At the critical moment, she will not drag you down, but will help you share the pressure.
Qin was very fortunate to marry such a wife.
When he returned to the palace, he went to visit his wife as usual.
Claire's pregnancy life was very comfortable. She was like a panda of the Augusta family, enjoying meticulous care.
In her spare time, she could control the Times magazine by remotely controlling senior Frank.
Frank, the perfect worker, can solve all business problems as long as you give him clear orders.
When Qin came back, Claire was enjoying the slightly drunk sunshine.
"Do you feel tired?" Qin waved the newspaper in his hand and asked with concern: "If you feel tired, you can put these tasks aside for now."
Claire naturally refused. She told Qin very clearly: "You know, this work is more like a change for me, and I am very happy to help you."
She always insisted that she should be independent, not the kind of slogans, and independence is not separation. Independent personality and value can also complement Qin.
Qin understood very well, holding her hand and sitting for a while, and chattering about daily life.
Then he regrouped and prepared to meet his father.
Claire knew that this was a sign that her husband felt pressure.
But it was also at this time that Franz came.
Privately, he is now a little more open than before, and his relationship with Qin has become really close.
"Your Highness, I am going to borrow the Air Force's plane from you." Franz directly explained his purpose.
Qin was a little confused and didn't know what he meant.
"I'm going to the New World soon. I have experience. This time I'll be able to save more than two months by plane."
Franz looked relaxed. It would take at least two months to travel to the New World by boat, stopping and starting.
This time is really exaggerated. Even if you take a fast passenger ship, it will take more than a month.
Of course, this is not the absolute reason why he chose to fly.
Qin now realized that Franz was going to be the first to go.
This is the importance of close ministers. Close ministers with low positions and great power are often envied because of this trust.
Even when important ministers of the empire like Virut were still kept in the dark, close ministers like Franz had already known the important strategic actions of the empire in advance.
So many times, foreign ministers wanted to kill these guys.
But this is not the point to say. The point is Franz's intention.
Franz has experience in going to the New World and has experienced wars, which can be said to be the beginning of the colonial war.
In addition, he knows a group of friends and has never lost contact.
These are all reasons for him to go to the front to facilitate Qin's official expedition.
But this is not the reason for him to take a plane.
Although the number of airplanes has increased in recent years due to technological breakthroughs, in fact, few important officials of the empire take airplanes, let alone members of the royal family?
This big thing flying in the sky always makes people doubt its safety.
So before Qin, Franz wanted to try it himself.
Qin didn't know what to say. If you want to say loyalty, it seems that there is, if you want to say opportunism, there is also.
This cousin... nature is hard to change.
But this behavior can indeed share some pressure for himself.
So he thought about it and agreed.
"Cousin Franz, go with peace of mind, the safety of the plane is very high, and the probability of an accident is very small."
After Franz took advantage of the opportunity, he immediately made another request.
"Your Highness, I still need a batch of blank canonization documents."
The title is a powerful weapon of the Great Xia Empire.
The standards for canonization in recent years are very strict, and basically all are court knight titles.
This further increases the value of the title. Without a title... you are not considered an upper-class person.
How many heroes have worked hard for the Great Xia Empire for this title?
Therefore, only the name and the weapon cannot be given to others, and it is very difficult to get a blank canonization document.
Of course, since it is a sharp weapon, it must be used, otherwise it will be meaningless.
Qin understood Franz's thoughts, but he could not make the decision on such matters.
