Era: Starting from divorce from female college student

Chapter 240: People Hate Dogs and Wine Cellar Equipment (asking for monthly tickets)

February 3, 1962, the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month.

The New Year atmosphere is already very strong today, because tomorrow is New Year's Eve and many units have already started their holidays.

The three years of 1959, 1960 and 1961 were all very dry, but in the past few months, there have been several heavy snowfalls in many places including the capital. We cannot say that the auspicious snow means a good harvest, but at least it gives people hope.

Everyone hopes that 1962 will be a year of good weather and a good harvest.

It's a very low expectation, but it still depends on whether God is willing to give this face and allow the people to realize such a wish.

Crackling!

On Zhongguancun South Street, at the gate of the Zhao family compound, the sound of firecrackers rang out. The firecrackers attracted the attention of neighbors on both sides, and everyone came to see the novelty.

The little brat Zhao Huijun led the two little ones, cheering and clapping their hands. When they saw the firecrackers, they were not afraid, but looked very happy.

Their father came back today, so they were all very happy.

The firecrackers were set off by their father as a sacrifice to heaven and earth, and also to celebrate his safe return.

After the excitement, Zhao Mancang took the children back into the house and started today's dinner.

"New Year's Day is coming soon. With the arrival of the New Year, Wan'er and I are one year older, and Huijun, you are one year older."

At the dinner table, Zhao Mancang looked at his family with a smile, and kept talking about festive things.

However, the one who gave him the least face was the little fat guy. The little guy was already fast asleep and didn't give his father any face at all.

The second one is Little Stone. Zhao Jinshi is already one and a half years old, which is not too small. He can walk very fast and almost run. However, he still speaks in a bit of "baby talk" and is not easy to communicate with.

"cheers!"

The children drink juice, Xiao Shitou drinks milk powder, and the adults drink wine or fruit wine.

Of course, Lin Wan is still breastfeeding, so she can only drink juice like a child.

To be honest, today's drinks don't have so much technology and hard work, but even so, Zhao Mancang still didn't let the little kids drink so many drinks.

If they really want to drink, prepare some freshly squeezed juice for them.

Although from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, no matter what the properties of the fruit are, they are actually cold and can easily breed dampness.

Drinking fresh fruit juice or fruit in moderation is good for the body, because most fruits are cold in nature and sweet in taste, and have the effects of clearing away heat and detoxifying, promoting fluid production and moistening the intestines, and promoting diuresis and reducing swelling.

However, excessive consumption of fruits or fresh fruit juice may irritate the gastrointestinal tract, causing gastrointestinal discomfort, and even abdominal pain, diarrhea, etc. In addition, fruits are high in sugar, and excessive consumption can easily lead to high blood sugar.

As a doctor, Zhao Mancang is of course very clear about this, so he would share this knowledge with Zhang Dongyue, Lin Wan and others from time to time.

Let children like Zhao Huijun eat more other foods and avoid excessive consumption of certain single foods for a long time.

For example, Zhao Huijun and her friends like to eat fried rice and drink milk tea.

Fried rice and milk tea are not bad, but we just need to let Zhao Huijun and the others know that they cannot eat these things continuously, otherwise, problems will easily arise.

Especially children, their stomachs are weak. Once they eat too much, their internal organs will not be able to process the sudden surge in certain substances, such as blood sugar, in time, which will easily trigger a chain reaction.

Moreover, if you only eat fried rice and drink milk tea for a period of time, you will definitely not be able to take in enough other nutrients, which will definitely make this vicious cycle worse.

Therefore, the best way is for adults to control it, and not let kids control the amount themselves.

Although tonight's meal only had six dishes, it was actually very rich. However, Zhao Huijun and the others seemed to have gotten tired of it and were not very willing to eat these dishes. Instead, they held their bowls and started to eat fried rice.

Zhao Mancang started preparing fried rice after he came back in the afternoon. Because they hadn't eaten fried rice for half a month, when they saw their father come back, they quickly asked for fried rice.

The delicious dishes included the taro pork belly that they usually liked to eat, but now they preferred fried rice.

It can also be seen from here that Zhao Huijun and her children really prefer fried rice.

"I made fried rice for them last time, but you know what they said? They said it wasn't as good as yours, and I had to force them to finish it. It pissed me off!"

At this moment, Lin Wan was so angry when she saw Zhao Huijun and the others eating everything in a flash.

Zhao Mancang heard this and smiled and comforted him:
"The fried rice I make is the same as yours, it's the same. If they dare not eat your cooking next time, I won't make it for them anymore."

"No!" Zhao Huijun looked up quickly and said anxiously when she heard it.

This year is 1962, and Zhao Huijun is eight years old.

She is already eight years old, but she understands a lot of things. She can even cook by herself. Although she doesn't seem to know much, she can actually do it very well, far surpassing her peers.

She has also made fried rice herself, but it tasted terrible because it was burnt.

Although some food was wasted, at least I gained some experience. I will try my best next time and will definitely do my best.

The family happily finished their dinner. After washing up, before Zhao Mancang could get close to Lin Wan, Xiao Baozi and Xiao Taozi were already lying on his bed.

They want to sleep in the same bed with their dad and listen to stories.

For the first time, Zhao Mancang felt that it would be better not to have these two daughters. He was really lacking in tact!
Lin Wan watched with a smile on her face, almost laughing to death. Who could blame Zhao Mancang's dilemma? It was just too funny.
But there is no way, since Xiao Taozi and Xiao Baozi are my daughters. Alas, I can only spoil them myself.

The next day, at four in the morning, Zhao Mancang went out.

Today is New Year's Eve. Tong Debin, Zheng Yuewen, Guo Baochun and other old-timers must also need the best seafood to celebrate the New Year, right?

Others may not know how people like Tong Debin made their fortune, but how could Zhao Mancang not know?

It must be said that these people are very good at skirting the rules.

Tong Debin and his ancestors had already started this money-making model since the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. Since the situation was so chaotic at that time, and there was no one above their heads who could really control them, they were so unscrupulous.

Mojin Xiaowei is a profession that has been passed down for thousands of years. It is rumored that there were already professional Mojin Xiaowei during the time of Cao Cao. Although we don’t know whether it is true or not, since it has been passed down, it shows that there are indeed many such people.

Without mentioning the things that happened during Cao Cao's time, let's talk about the more recent ones, and the one that has to be mentioned is Sun Dianying, the bandit of the Republic of China.

When Zhao Mancang heard Tong Debin and others talking about the tomb robber Sun Dianying, he gritted his teeth while talking, because the person Sun Dianying wanted to rob the tomb was still the person to whom Tong Debin and others' ancestors were loyal.

As a member of the Fengtian warlords, although Sun Dianying had certain strength at the time, he faced the dilemma of financial shortage for a long time.

Even the military pay was in arrears for half a year, and the brothers who followed him could not get enough to eat. Many soldiers even began to discuss leaving the army and seeking other opportunities.

Sun Dianying had no choice but to hear his friend talking about the story of making a fortune by tomb robbing, which reminded him of the Eastern Qing Tombs.

After confirming his intention to rob the tomb, Sun Dianying spent a lot of time and energy planning it.

And when he led the elite team, like a ghost under the night sky, he sneaked into the heart of the mausoleum area silently, found the location of the tomb of the last old woman of the Qing Dynasty, and then found a stonemason named Jiang, threatened him with force, and forced Jiang to find the entrance to the mausoleum.

Then they used explosives to blow up the tomb, entered the cemetery, and started robbing the tomb.

In fact, as the last old woman of the Qing Dynasty who lived an extremely luxurious life, the luxury in her tomb was beyond Sun Dianying's imagination.

The entire tomb is magnificent, with exquisite jade inlaid on the walls and priceless pearl strings hanging from the ceiling.

There are also various precious cultural relics and treasures piled up like mountains, including exquisite porcelain, gorgeous jewelry, ancient calligraphy and paintings, and a large amount of gold and silver treasures.

Even so, when Sun Dianying and his men left, they even took off the old woman's underwear.

As the saying goes, plucking feathers from a passing goose, it is nothing more than this.

Why did Sun Dianying even take away the old woman's underwear? It couldn't be that he had a perverted hobby, right?
In fact, it was because the pants were made of a dragon robe woven with gold thread and were priceless, so of course they had to be taken away.

Of course, Sun Dianying's actions were due to his extreme greed for money, and it was also a great disrespect to the deceased.

Especially for the old people like Tong Debin, they were extremely angry.

Zhao Mancang knew about this. Although he did not quite agree with Sun Dianying's actions, he still felt that what he did was quite satisfying.

The old woman definitely did not deserve to enjoy all the wealth and prosperity in the world during her lifetime, and she still wanted glory after death. She deserved to have her underwear stripped off by Sun Dianying.

"Comrade, you are finally here."

Tong Debin’s home is in Courtyard No. 9, Ji’ansuo Youxiang.

When they saw Zhao Mancang appear, they were immediately surprised.

"We left you a message more than ten days ago, but you didn't reply until yesterday."

"I've been very busy lately. I just returned to the capital yesterday afternoon. Hehe, do you have any needs? I'll do my best to meet your needs."

Zhao Mancang's attitude towards Tong Debin and others has become very casual.

In the past, he wished that Tong Debin and others would buy seafood every day, or go to the ghost market frequently to trade, so that he could gain experience points frequently.

But now, he only comes occasionally at most, and not very often.

"I need giant groupers, preferably large ones weighing over 200 kilograms. Comrade, can you find some? Price is not an issue."

"I don't want grouper, I want tuna, the kind you gave us last time, comrade, the kind that can be eaten right away."

"Big lobsters and big crabs, I wonder if you have these seafood, I want them."

Tong Debin and his friends have different requirements, it seems that they all have different tastes.

But when Zhao Mancang thought about it carefully, he found something wrong. According to their demand, they might have to share it among several families.

The giant grouper looks very big, but Tong Debin and his group have quite a few of them.

Let’s not talk about Zheng Yuewen and Guo Baochun, nor Tong Debin, let’s just talk about Wu Xinqi.

Wu Xinqi, who lives in Yongxiang East Lane, does not have only one wife as it seems. He has four wives in total.

At the beginning of the liberation, he lived openly with his two wives, and the other two were concubines kept outside.

Therefore, Wu Xinqi was forced to divorce one of his wives at that time. He could only be monogamous and not polygamous.

Later they divorced, but in fact they didn't.

In short, to the outside world, he only has one wife, but in fact that is not the case.

The other three daughters-in-law are all widows, and their children are no longer young.

So just Wu Xinqi's family has as many as twenty-seven people.

Although he has to support so many people by himself, in the past two years, several of his children have grown up and he has sent them to work in factories, so they can support themselves.

Even so, Wu Xinqi still loves his children very much and will definitely send some to them whenever there are any fresh ingredients.

Tong Debin, Guo Baochun, Zheng Yuewen, Wu Qiliang and other old-timers and young people are almost all in the same situation. Behind each person there is almost a large family of more than ten or twenty people.

An ordinary family has at most five people, and at worst six, seven, or eighty or ninety people. But people like Wu Xinqi are different. They have more wives and many children than others, so of course their family size is very large.

"Okay, I'll try my best to satisfy you. Wait!"

Zhao Mancang agreed with a smile and did not refuse these people's request.

As he expanded the system space, he was no longer worried about these problems. Whether it was grouper or tuna, he stored them all in the system space.

In addition to the frozen and chilled space areas, there are also completely still space areas that can maintain vitality after recovery.

So he didn't need to worry at all.

Half an hour later, Zhao Mancang pulled a horse-drawn carriage and transported the seafood to the gate of No. 9 Courtyard, Youxiang, Ji'ansuo.

It took more than twenty minutes to complete the transaction. Zhao Mancang got the antiques or gold he wanted and then left.

Looking at the nearly 200 experience points he had obtained, Zhao Mancang shook his head and didn't care too much.

Of course, even though the mosquito legs are small, he will not give up easily.

I'm just sitting around doing nothing anyway, and the Spring Festival is coming soon. This year will be over soon. If I want to earn more experience points, I'll have to wait until next year.

After finishing these things, Zhao Mancang went home.

Halfway through the journey, snowflakes began to fall from the sky, and the snow became heavier and heavier. This heavy snow came at a really bad time.

When he got home, a lot of snowflakes had accumulated on Zhao Mancang's head. He shook them off, and Dahei and Xiaohei pounced on him.

After a few years, Dahei and Xiaohei have grown up and become more majestic and powerful.

However, in front of Zhao Mancang, they were as well-behaved as possible and did not show any wolfhound aura at all.

After playing with Dahei and Xiaohei for a while, Zhao Mancang turned and went into the yard. In the yard, Zhao Huijun and the others had already gotten up.

Today is New Year's Eve, and the little kids all remembered it, so they got up early.

What's more, when they woke up, they found that their father was no longer in bed, so they ran out noisily.

"Dad, can we have a snowball fight?"

As soon as they went out, they saw their father who had just returned home, so they immediately rushed up to him cheering and chattering excitedly.

Children’s world is either about eating or playing.

Zhao Mancang just got home and today is New Year's Eve, so his main task is to accompany his family. There is no problem with playing snowball fights as long as the children are happy.

Xiao Taozi and Xiao Baozi are already over two and a half years old. They can run and jump. Although they are not very naughty yet, they are actually heading towards the age where everyone hates them.

Of course, they are still very cute and not as naughty as boys.

One morning, the yard was filled with the cheers of Zhao Mancang and the children. After playing for a while, Zhao Mancang saw that the children were sweating, so he drove them into the house to take a bath and told them not to play so wildly anymore.

The climate in the north is dry, so playing for a while is enough and it is not suitable to play outdoors all the time.

After they took a shower and had breakfast, Zhao Huijun suggested going shopping.

"Let's go buy New Year's goods."

Zhao Mancang tried his best to meet the demands of the little kids, and the streets of Beijing would definitely be crowded this morning because everyone was on holiday.

In fact, the New Year's goods had been bought two days ago, and the family had never lacked food and drinks. Zhao Mancang and others went out shopping purely to join in the fun and feel the festive atmosphere.

Lin Wan refused. She didn't want to go because she had to stay at home to take care of the children.

The little fat boy is still very small, so it is not suitable to carry him out.

However, Zhang Dongyue was very supportive and said that she would stay at home to take care of the children, and it would be nice for the two of you to go out for a walk.

"Did you hear that? Mom has said so, so you should get ready. We'll leave right away," Zhao Mancang said to Lin Wan with a smile, then took the cheering Zhao Huijun and the others to the front gate first.

Lin Wan, who was at her wit's end, smiled and followed him out.

When Zhao Mancang and his family appeared on Xidan Street, they were stunned for a long time by the scene before them.

If you want to go shopping on crowded streets, you really have to keep an eye on your children.

Zhao Mancang carried Xiao Shitou on his back, and held Xiao Taozi and Xiao Baozi in his left and right hands. Lin Wan took Zhao Huijun with her, and they walked around like this.

Whether it is Xidan Street or Wangfujing on the other side, there are equally many people on both sides.

The most exaggerated place is the department store in Wangfujing. If you go inside, it is very difficult to walk. This Spring Festival seems to be a little different. It seems that everyone has money in their hands and rushes out to buy things.

Everyone's face was filled with laughter, and it would have been even more appropriate if festive songs were playing on both sides of the street.

Happy times always pass quickly, and it’s almost noon in the blink of an eye.

It was almost noon when Zhao Mancang and his friends went home for lunch. After lunch, they went to Heizhima Hutong to pick someone up.

Zhao Mancang still took his father-in-law and his family to Zhongguancun South Street to celebrate the Spring Festival. After all, Heizhima Hutong is a bit small and it is difficult to move around.

The most important thing is that Zhao Mancang has too many children and they all need adults.

After a busy afternoon, the New Year’s Eve dinner was finally ready and everyone raised their glasses to celebrate the New Year.

After night fell, heavy snow fell in the capital again. All the people in the capital saw this heavy snow and smiles appeared on everyone's face.

Maybe there will be no drought in the new year.

Auspicious snow indicates a good harvest!!!
New Year’s Eve passed quickly, and it was New Year’s Day in the blink of an eye.

On the first day of the new year, Wei Huayong and his family came to visit.

Wei Shouchang bought a lot of gifts and went to express his gratitude, because it was because of Zhao Mancang's life-saving grace that he was still alive.

His wife Tian Xiuyu was also very grateful. She kowtowed to Zhao Mancang and expressed her gratitude.

"Don't be like this, Old Wei. Tell your son and daughter-in-law, it's New Year's Day, why are you doing this to me?"

Zhao Mancang was at a loss for words. He couldn't handle Wei Shouchang and his wife, so how could he not handle Old Wei?
"Today is Chinese New Year, it's a holiday, it has nothing to do with me, don't order me around." Wei Huayong smiled and looked completely indifferent.

Seeing him like this, Zhao Mancang was speechless. He had no choice but to tell Wei Shouchang and his wife not to be so reserved. It would be too boring if they kept thanking him like this. They should just sit down and chat.

Wei Shouchang can't drink alcohol, and there are many things he needs to avoid.

But Lao Wei and Tian Xiuyu could drink, so when faced with the good wine that Zhao Mancang brought out, they couldn't help but drink two glasses.

After Mi Shouyang, Tie Wanzhong and others arrived, Wei Huayong let go completely because someone was competing with him for drinking.

"Old Zhao, this is really amazing! How come this wine is so delicious? It's completely different from the wines we usually drink."

After Mi Shouyang and the others took a sip, they were immediately shocked.

Zhao Mancang just smiled and did not explain that this was a fine wine that had been stored in the cellar for five years, and of course the taste was very different from ordinary wine.

He has stored a lot of fine wine in several places, and there are many hidden in the place where he lives now.

Moreover, since 1958, he would buy a new batch of wine every year to store in the cellar. In this way, he would not have to worry about not having cellared wine to drink every year.

To be honest, once you get used to drinking cellared wine, you will definitely not be used to other wines, because the taste is really completely different and the alcohol concentration is also different.

Take good wine that has been stored in cellars for more than ten years, for example. The alcohol content has dropped a lot, but the taste is more mellow and rich, and it is more intoxicating.

Zhao Mancang didn't take out the better wine, not because he was reluctant, but because it was difficult to explain.

Even for the wine that has been stored in the cellar for five years, Mi Shouyang and his team are already crying out for money, not to mention the good wine that has been stored in the cellar for ten years or more.

"You guys usually drink ordinary, low-quality bulk wine, so you think the wine in my ceramic jar tastes better. There's actually no difference."

Zhao Mancang kept fooling around, then raised his glass and asked everyone to drink together.

Zhao Huijun, Xiao Taozi and Xiao Baozi standing nearby also raised their cups, wanting to join in the fun.

Mi Shouyang and his friends were very cooperative, clinking glasses with the little ones, making the little kids so happy that they were at a loss as to what to do.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Mi Shouyang and his group drank from noon to afternoon. The gifts they brought were quite generous, but the amount of wine they drank and food they ate at Zhao Mancang's house was even more.

Fortunately, Zhao Mancang had enough food stored at home, and he took out six bottles of wine from the cellar. If everyone shared it, it was barely enough.

These cellared wines are all Moutai or Wuliangye, neither of which are bad wines, but excellent wines.

However, when Zhao Mancang took it out, it was put in an ordinary Bamboo Leaf Green wine bottle, so they didn't notice anything.

After all, these wines are all in pottery jars, and Zhao Mancang likes to drink this kind of pottery jar wine, not bottled wine.

They drank half a jar of wine in one day. I can only say that people like Wei Huayong have really amazing drinking capacity.

The next day, guests including Gu Haidong, Zhang Jinfu, and Gu Chengwu also came.

Even several leaders came. Although Lin Wan, Zhang Dongyue and the others didn't know them, they could figure out something about the attitudes of people like Gu Chengwu towards the leaders from the ones standing next to them.

After the second day of the Lunar New Year, the Spring Festival is almost over, so during the holidays, people like Gu Haidong will try their best to visit the guests they want to visit.

Zhao Mancang had no chance to go out and visit other guests, and he couldn't do so.

What he wanted most was to visit the leader of the I-shaped building on Ministry of Foreign Affairs Street, but this leader would definitely not be at home, so it would be difficult to visit him.

As for visiting Lao Wei, Gu Haidong and others, forget it. These people have already been to his house. Even if Zhao Mancang wants to visit them, it will be later, or early next year.

The lively Spring Festival passed by as we drank and chatted. The three-day holiday actually went by very quickly.

Most people don’t have holidays, but Zhao Mancang still has holidays. After all, he has just returned to the capital for a few days, so he must take a good vacation.

Mi Shouyang and his team have already returned to training, working themselves to death. They also hope to catch up with Zhao Mancang's pace and bring back more credit.

At the Longxing Research Institute, Wei Huayong and Gu Haidong were running more frequently.

Although neither of them is familiar with technology, let alone scientific research and innovation, this does not prevent them from attaching importance to technology itself.

Before the Spring Festival, Zhao Mancang told them about the application scenarios of satellite phones, so they were also very much looking forward to it.

"Old Wei, you two shouldn't bother running around here. We're scientific researchers, so we really can't achieve this right away. Besides, it'll take at least three to five years to develop this kind of technology. It's simply impossible!"

Wei Changyuan, Hu Baoshan and others were afraid of Wei Huayong and others, and explained repeatedly:

"If you could help solve the technical problems, that would be fine, but since you can't do anything, I suggest you just focus on your own work. We have our own work plan and will try to speed up research and development as much as possible."

This is because they feel that Wei Huayong and others are overly supervisory and put too much pressure on them.

Wei Huayong and his team repeatedly stated that they were just here to take a look and did not intend to put pressure on the Longxing Research Institute.
Who believes this?
Anyway, Wei Changyuan and the others didn't believe it, and Zhao Mancang naturally didn't believe it either, but he supported Lao Wei and the others' actions.

In fact, we do need to put some pressure on Wei Changyuan and others.

Besides, Wei Huayong and the others did not cause any trouble, nor did they cause them any trouble.

However, after Hu Baoshan and the others said so, Zhao Mancang held a meeting after learning about this matter. The purpose was to see what technical equipment was currently needed for satellite phones. He tried his best to let the Jiaolong Army solve these problems.

If the problem cannot be solved, then apply for more funding from above to purchase technology or equipment.

Many people are unaware of the existence of 'Comrade Li', but this does not include Zhao Mancang.

Ma Jiugong, Yuan Yushan and others still conduct transactions every month, half a month, or sometimes even once or twice a week.

The number of transactions varies depending on whether Zhao Mancang is in Beijing or abroad.

“We lack all the technology and equipment.”

In the conference room, Wei Changyuan, Hu Baoshan, Peng Xitian and others complained bitterly, as if this satellite phone project was really difficult.

"Director Zhao, the spot beam technology you mentioned earlier is very difficult to implement. We have determined that it requires an antenna, power amplifier, control unit, and so on, as well as a beam control device on the receiving end."

"Take the antenna, for example. It needs to be used in a space environment, and we have no idea how complex that environment is."

"So we also need equipment that simulates the space environment to test the antenna system."

When Wei Huayong, Gu Haidong and others heard this, they were already confused.

Zhao Mancang nodded, his expression not changing much. He was either pretending to know the answer or simply thought that the difficulty was not that great.

In fact, Zhao Mancang certainly knew that satellite calls were difficult. As Hu Baoshan and others said, it is now very difficult for our country to launch low-Earth orbit satellites, let alone launch synchronous orbit satellites?
If you can’t even do these, how can you do other things?

Therefore, there is definitely no way to ask the Longxing Research Institute to quickly come up with all the technical research and development projects for the satellite phone project. It can only be done step by step.

It is impossible to expect to become fat in one bite.

"Professor Hu, Professor Wei, I know it's difficult right now, but we also have to realize that once we truly establish such a satellite phone system, it will have a profound impact on the future of our country."

"The future of warfare will undoubtedly change. We must keep pace with the times. Sam and Moscow are already developing more powerful missiles. They might develop intercontinental missiles capable of flying tens of thousands of kilometers, or even more powerful missiles."

"They will also develop more advanced radar technology to monitor other countries or for defense purposes."

"We at Longxing Research Institute can't do that, so we'll find another way. Satellite phones will be more suitable for us."

"As Professor Hu just mentioned, we all know that the antenna system is difficult, but our Jiaolong Army will do its best to find a solution. Let me put it this way. I'll go to Lingjing Hutong tomorrow and ask the leaders if they can help us solve this problem."

Hu Baoshan and others were shocked when they heard this.

Is it useful to find a leader?
Whether it is useful or not, you will know it by looking for it, right?
Zhao Mancang ignored the professors' surprise. After the meeting, he called Mi Shouyang and others together.

"Would you like to contact me anytime in the future?"

"miss you!"

For Mi Shouyang and others, of course they hope to be able to contact Zhao Mancang anytime and anywhere, because only in this way can they "win without effort".

And the sooner this is achieved, the better. Why?
Because Mi Shouyang and the others are getting older, their mobility may become outdated.

On the other hand, according to statistics before and after World War II, the gold treasures on Mindanao Island are worth about 20 billion US dollars, and the rest are antiques, cultural relics, minerals, etc.

Not to mention how much gold Sam took away from here, taking half as the benchmark, the remaining gold on Mindanao is about 10 billion US dollars.

However, in the past few years, Zhao Mancang has also taken away tens or even hundreds of billions of US dollars, so there is really not much gold left.

Especially those gold treasures that have sunk to the bottom of the sea, several thousand meters below the sea, how to salvage them?

In addition, there are Sam and agents from Moscow on Mindanao Island, who are also looking for gold treasures.

So there is not much time left for Mi Shouyang and others, and of course they hope that the sooner the better.

"Okay, since you all think so, and I also want to achieve this goal sooner, then you should prepare well in the next half month. After half a month, regardless of whether Lao Zuo and the others come back or not, I will take you out for a trip."

hiss!
Almost instantly, Mi Shouyang and the others cheered. They looked so happy that if you didn't know them, you would think they had won a big prize.

Zhao Mancang smiled and reached out to press down, signaling them not to be so excited.

"You must be mentally prepared. This time, the operation may be very different."

"Okay, let's adjourn the meeting. I have to go to work too."

The next day, Zhao Mancang went to Lingjing Hutong and met his leader. After a few greetings, he got straight to the point.

"Leader, our Longxing Research Institute would like to apply for more funds to purchase some high-tech equipment."

The satellite phone project requires a lot of equipment, and an antenna system alone includes a lot of things, such as the signal transmitter and receiver on the satellite, both of which require an antenna system.

The most important thing is that this antenna system needs to be well protected, even though the space environment is a vacuum environment and there should not be any extremely harsh things.

But in fact, there are many invisible and intangible things in the universe and the starry sky, and human beings’ understanding of space is very limited.

The antenna system also has a steering device, which is used to control the direction of the antenna when measuring fires in mobile communication equipment.

However, how to achieve such directional control is also a big problem.

Therefore, from a technical perspective, there are many problems that need to be solved just for an antenna system, not to mention mobile communication equipment, related equipment on satellites, etc.

"no problem!"

The leader agreed immediately. When Zhao Mancang heard this, he opened his mouth in surprise.

He thought the leader would refuse or bargain, but he didn't expect him to agree directly?
"Is there anything else?" The leader smiled slightly. After Zhao Mancang reacted, he shook his head to indicate that he had no problems, then stood up and said goodbye.

Two days later, in the early morning, when Zhao Mancang was trading with Ma Jiugong and others at the Tianjin Wharf, he indeed heard the demands they put forward.

When Zhao Mancang heard this, he almost laughed out loud.

"No problem, I agree. You can prepare the funds in three days. I estimate it will take around 30 to 50 million US dollars."

The satellite telephone system is a huge technical system, and its main equipment includes satellite antennas, terminal equipment and satellite communication controllers.

The satellite antenna is responsible for receiving and sending satellite signals, the terminal equipment includes microphones, display screens and operating interfaces, and the satellite communication controller is responsible for encoding, decoding and transmitting signals.

In addition, the most important thing is the signal password protection system, which is also the most important part of information transmission.

But these few things involve a lot of technologies, and the production equipment used to manufacture these devices is also high-tech equipment.

Zhao Mancang didn't think much about it and directly exchanged all of them from the system mall.

However, this is just a satellite telephone system. The satellite antenna can be taken out, but it is not an easy task to install it on a synchronous orbit satellite and launch this satellite into the geosynchronous orbit.

In short, two different things!
The equipment needed for a satellite phone system and the production equipment behind it would cost approximately 500,000 experience points to redeem.

After the exchange, Zhao Mancang's experience value balance was only over 300,000.

But it's worth it.

"Okay, thank you Comrade Li!"

Ma Jiugong was not quite sure how powerful this set of technical equipment was and what impact it would have on modern military warfare, so he did not show much surprise.

After all, they are people who have seen the world, and even the equipment they handle every year has made them numb.

Because the centrifuges and other equipment needed for atomic bombs that they had handled before had shocked them several times.

Now this thing is called a satellite phone system, and just by hearing the name of the equipment, they won't be surprised.

Just call them, how could they not know?
"Then see you in three days." Zhao Mancang nodded and ended today's transaction.

He took all the products that had been traded and shipped them to Lingguang County, asking the person in charge of the Lingguang County warehouse to send all the products to where they needed to go.

Three days later, Zhao Mancang appeared at the Tianjin Wharf with a lot of equipment.

Of course, the equipment exchanged for 500,000 experience points cannot be worth only 30 or 50 million US dollars. If you add a zero or even another zero at the end, it will be more than that.

But Zhao Mancang had no intention of selling at a high price.

Firstly, this thing is something that can be exchanged for experience points. Secondly, even if you have a set of satellite phone equipment and related parts production equipment, it will be useless.

Because there is no such professional and technical personnel, trying to replicate and produce them is a huge and systemic problem.

On the other hand, satellite antennas need to be launched into geosynchronous orbit, otherwise they will be just a pile of scrap metal.

"This really only costs 50 million US dollars?"

When Ma Jiugong, Yuan Yushan and others saw so many devices, they were stunned.
