After passing through a corridor, they arrived at the tarmac. Through the floor-to-ceiling glass of the large fan, they could see the Gulfstream G650 parked outside. The streamlined body shone brightly under the sun, giving off an indescribable sense of beauty.
Although the Gulfstream series of business jets seemed to shrink compared to the commercial airliners in the distance, private jets and commercial airliners were two different concepts. Although the Gulfstream was small, it looked so domineering when parked there.
Captain Liu An and Zheng Daming stood in two rows at the cabin door with the crew members, welcoming Xia Ruofei and the others.
Pang Hao muttered in a low voice, "Which company did they rent this plane from? The service is really good … "
Although Feng Jing and Dong Yun both had experience living overseas, it was the first time for them to travel in a business jet. Feng Jing said with some uncertainty, "Maybe this is their service process …"
"Boss Xia!" Liu An stepped forward and said, "Everything is ready. Please board the plane!"
Xia Ruofei laughed and said, "Why does it sound like I'm going to be an emperor?"
Feng Jing and Dong Yun couldn't help but burst into laughter at the same time.
Xia Ruofei patted Liu An on the shoulder and said, "I'm just kidding! Captain Liu, the weather today is good, right? "
"It's very suitable for flying!" Liu An said, "I checked the weather forecast for the route. It should be very smooth throughout the journey. In addition, the traffic at Sanshan Airport and the destination airport in Hong Kong is expected to be low during our take-off and landing period. Today should be smooth! "
"That's good! Thank you for your hard work! " Xia Ruofei said, "We may stay in Hong Kong for two or three days. Do you need me to arrange food and accommodation for you during this period?"
"No need, Boss Xia!" Liu An said, "Jiuzhou Group has an office in Hong Kong. It has already been arranged for us in advance …"
"Okay then!" Xia Ruofei said, "You can tour around Hong Kong. We should stay for at least two days!"
"Okay!" Liu An said.
Xia Ruofei turned around and said with a smile, "Comrades! Get on the plane! "
When he turned around, he saw that Feng Jing, Dong Yun, and Pang Hao all had the same expression. Their mouths were wide open, and their eyes were fixed on the tail of the plane.
"Hey! Come back to your senses! "Xia Ruofei waved his hand in front of Feng Jing's eyes, and she suddenly came back to her senses.
Feng Jing looked incredulous. She pointed to the tail of the plane and said, "Chairman … this … isn't this our company's logo?"
It turned out that when they walked out of the security checkpoint and approached the plane, they had walked from the direction of the nose of the plane, so they couldn't see the tail of the plane. Now that they turned to the side, the three of them were attracted by the huge logo of the Taoyuan Company on the tail of the plane.
At first, when everyone saw the green paint on the fuselage, they felt a little strange. It felt a bit like the Qantas flight that had changed the paint, but it didn't directly print the Taoyuan vegetables. In their hearts, they thought that the rented plane was quite suitable for the scene, and it matched the position of the Taoyuan Company.
But when they saw the Taoyuan Company logo, there was a turbulent wave in their hearts. If they rented a plane from a business jet company, even if the service was good, it was impossible to temporarily change the paint of the plane to the customer's company logo!
Xia Ruofei looked up and glanced at the big Taoyuan Company logo. He smiled and said, "You have good eyesight! You recognized it at a glance! "
Pang Hao couldn't help but roll his eyes and say, "Chairman, that logo is so big. As long as you are not blind, you can definitely recognize it, okay? Don't tell me that this is the company's new business jet! When did our company become so rich and overbearing? And as the director of Huaxia, how come I don't know about hundreds of millions of expenses? "
Feng Jing and Dong Yun also looked at Xia Ruofei.
Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "I didn't buy it!"
Feng Jing heard this and was slightly relieved. To be honest, the total assets of the Taoyuan Company were about one billion. Although the development was very rapid, it was still a bit too extravagant to buy a brand-new Gulfstream G650 plane. This plane was worth more than half of the company's assets. She didn't want Xia Ruofei to be so prodigal.
Xia Ruofei then said, "Someone gave it to me!"
Feng Jing and the other two almost stared their eyes out.
"What?" Feng Jing couldn't help but cry out, "Who would give you such an expensive private jet! Chairman, this … this is too unbelievable, isn't it? "
Pang Hao also said, "Chairman, I don't read much, so don't fool me! Even the former richest man in the United States, Mr. Bill Gates, couldn't be so generous, right? Unless … you are his illegitimate child … "
Speaking of this, Pang Hao couldn't help but laugh.
Xia Ruofei glared at Pang Hao and said, "I'm not lying to you! It was given to me by a friend despite the difference in age! Do you know the Jiuzhou Group in the United States? "
Feng Jing and Dong Yun nodded at the same time. How could they, who worked overseas, not have heard of the Jiuzhou Group? Although the Jiuzhou Group wasn't in the top few in the circle of the top rich in the United States, the Chinese background of this company was enough for all the overseas Chinese to be very familiar with it.
"This plane was given to me by the chairman of the Jiuzhou Group, Li Yifu." Xia Ruofei said, "But it is still under the name of the Jiuzhou Group. It is just for long-term use."
"So that's the case …" Feng Jing said.
There was a difference between giving a plane directly and giving the right to use the plane.
However, Xia Ruofei's next words made her suck in a breath of cold air.
Xia Ruofei said, "So, including Captain Liu and the others, they are actually the employees of the Jiuzhou Group. All the expenses incurred by this plane are also borne by the Jiuzhou Group. In fact, I only have the right to use it …"
Only … Feng Jing and the other two couldn't help but ridicule in their hearts.
Isn't this better than giving it away for free? Even if an ordinary person was given a plane, they wouldn't be able to afford it. Even if the plane didn't fly for a day, it would be parked in the airport. The daily rent and maintenance costs were not something that ordinary people could afford.
But now, the Jiuzhou Group was paying for all these expenses. Xia Ruofei could use it at any time, and he didn't have to pay a penny. There was actually such a good thing in the world.
Could it be that Xia Ruofei is really the illegitimate child of the chairman of the Jiuzhou Group, Li Yifu? It seems that the age doesn't match, right? Li Yifu is quite old … Feng Jing couldn't help but murmur in her heart.
Xia Ruofei saw Feng Jing's strange eyes and knew that she must have misunderstood.
He didn't know whether to laugh or cry and said, "Don't look at me like that! The reason why Mr. Li Yifu gave me a plane is that there are some hidden reasons. In short, it's not what you think. Let's put it this way … The value of my help to him is not lower than a plane … "
With Xia Ruofei's explanation, Feng Jing understood a little.
She knew that Xia Ruofei had quite good medical skills, including the Jade Skin Ointment and the Heart Nourishing Soup. In fact, they were all developed by Xia Ruofei.
Although Xia Ruofei said it more tactfully, Feng Jing guessed that Xia Ruofei might have helped Li Yifu with his medical skills. After all, this kind of world-class rich people cherished their lives very much. If it was really a life-saving grace, what was a plane?
Although Feng Jing's guess was wrong, it wasn't far from the truth. Xia Ruofei didn't save Li Yifu's life, but it was equivalent to giving him a second life. In the eyes of cultivators, how could worldly money compare to the support and help on the path of cultivation? What's more, Xia Ruofei was Li Yifu's martial granduncle. It was even more natural to be filial to the elder.
Xia Ruofei said, "Okay, okay. Don't waste time here. Everyone, get on the plane first!"
"Let's go! Let's go up and take a look! "Pang Hao shouted.
If it was a rented business jet, everyone wouldn't have much interest. After all, it was someone else's. Although the rent was more expensive, it could only be used once or twice. Even if it was rented again next time, it might not be this plane.
But this was Xia Ruofei's "private plane", so the feeling was different.
The group of people boarded the plane one by one. Xia Ruofei was the last to walk. Before he stepped on the gangway, he turned back and asked, "By the way, the things sent from Taoyuan Farm have been packed, right?"
Before Xia Ruofei set off today, he had packed all the auction items prepared in advance and asked Ye Linyun to personally take care of it. He brought three cars and more than ten veterans to escort them to the airport.
After all, the overall value of these auction items was quite high. The key was that the press conference would be held tomorrow. Xia Ruofei didn't want any accidents to happen during the transportation.
Liu An immediately said, "It has been arranged on the plane. According to your request, we temporarily installed a freezer. The two boxes numbered 01 and 02 have been placed in the freezer!"
Xia Ruofei put the truffles and one-headed abalone, which needed to be frozen, in two incubators. During the transportation process, they were kept fresh with ice cubes. After they were sent on the plane, they were directly placed in the freezer.
Xia Ruofei nodded and said, "That's good! Captain Liu, let's set off as soon as possible! "
"Okay, Boss Xia!" Liu An accompanied Xia Ruofei to board the plane. "The airport generally gives priority to small business jets like ours. I also coordinated with the air traffic control department in advance yesterday. As long as we close the cabin door and prepare, the waiting time won't be too long!"
After everyone boarded the plane, the stewardess put away the gangway and closed the cabin door.
In the cabin, Feng Jing, Dong Yun, and Pang Hao were still looking at the plane with interest. They exclaimed from time to time. Even Dong Yun, who had a somewhat cold temperament, showed a trace of envy.
This plane was custom-made by a Mexican tycoon. However, the order was later canceled, and Li Yifu bought it. Although Li Yifu was worried about the aesthetic differences between the East and the West, so he made some changes to the interior design, he definitely made the changes better. The specifications wouldn't be lower than the original Mexican tycoon's.
Therefore, the interior of the plane could be said to be extremely luxurious. The entire cabin was decorated with warm colors, and the decoration was made of walnut, which had a strong contrast. It had a very modern feeling. In addition, in some prominent parts, decorative strips of red sandalwood were used, which looked more classy.
There were a total of four single seats in the front area. All of them were handmade leather sofas from the Aeristo brand. The color matched the two-tone leather ceiling and the lower half of the side cabin wall.
The metal fittings shone with a satin silver glow. The floor was covered with a hand-made Italian wool carpet, which was noble and luxurious.
The lights on the cabin roof emitted a soft light, which made the entire cabin look more dreamy.
"It's good to be rich …" Pang Hao couldn't help but murmur, "Chairman, I saw a single room at the back of the plane! There's even a double bed … "
When Xia Ruofei saw Pang Hao's wretched eyes, he knew that he must be thinking about "sex" in the plane. He couldn't help but stare at him and say, "Do you want to go up and lie down? It's only two hours from here to Hong Kong Island. Is it enough for you to sleep? "
When Pang Hao heard Xia Ruofei's tone, he quickly waved his hand and said, "I'm just jealous. I don't have that kind of thought! Brother Fei, I was wrong, okay? "
Feng Jing smiled and said, "Director Pang, the chairman invited you to lie down with him …"
Xia Ruofei almost vomited blood. The stewardess next to him, who was preparing to serve before the plane took off, was also trying hard to hold back her laughter.
Xia Ruofei said, "Everyone, pick a seat! Fasten your seat belts. The plane will take off soon! "
There were four single sofas in the front area, and Xia Ruofei and his group also happened to be four people. Everyone chose a seat and sat down.
Pang Hao's body almost sank into the sofa. He let out a comfortable moan and said, "This is so enjoyable … When I have money, I want it too …"
"You want to buy a plane like this too?" Feng Jing asked with a smile.
Pang Hao's expression froze slightly. He said, "I want to buy a similar sofa and sit at home every day!"
"Hahaha!" Xia Ruofei and the others couldn't help but laugh.
At this time, two stewardesses came over to serve them. They brought red wine and drinks for everyone. At the same time, they brought menus.
"Can we also order?" Pang Hao said.
"There aren't many choices. Everyone can choose." Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "But don't eat too much. I think after the plane lands, Mayor Ma will treat us to a meal!"
"Then let's save our stomachs for a big meal!" Pang Hao said.
"Up to you!" Xia Ruofei said with a shrug.
Even so, the four of them looked at the menu and ordered a meal each.
