Now, it takes nearly two hours to fly from Eastcliff to Aurous Hill, but if you take the Concorde, it only takes 25 minutes.
It is a pity that although this aircraft is extremely fast, its fuel economy is extremely poor, so with the arrival of the economic crisis and a serious flight accident, this aircraft withdrew from the civil aviation stage in 2003 and has since disappeared from the world.
Today, most people don’t even remember the existence of this aircraft, but several of these aircraft have been well preserved.
And, without exception, all became the exclusive cars of the top rich.
Charlie’s grandfather Zhongquan has one.
His Concorde airliner was bought and spent huge financial resources on transformation and maintenance. Up to now, it costs tens of millions of dollars in basic maintenance costs every year.
However, Zhongquan spent so much money on this plane, but it is difficult for him to fly once a year.
However, for the top big families, this kind of aircraft is equivalent to the nuclear weapons of a big country. It can be kept in storage at ordinary times and will not be used for several years or even decades, but once a major event requires it, it can be put into use immediately.
Therefore, Issac thought of this method. As long a Zhongquan is willing to lend this Concorde to Charlie, Charlie will be sent to Syria within four and a half hours, nothing to say!
However, Zhongquan valued this aircraft very much. He hadn’t used it for anyone except himself. Even his children did not have the opportunity to use it.
And Issac was just a spokesperson for the Wade family in Aurous Hill. He couldn’t even get in touch with Zhongquan directly, so Charlie could only talk to Zhongquan about this matter.
Charlie was instantly awakened by his words.
He couldn’t hide his excitement and blurted out: “It’s great! If there is a Concorde, you can save more than half of your time at once!”
As he said, he immediately took out his cell phone and said, “I will call him, and I will borrow this plane anyway!”
Issac said with some worry: “Master, it is said that your grandfather has very precious thoughts about this plane. He has never loaned it out or let anyone other than himself use it. I am now worried that he will not be willing to lend it to you.”
Charlie said solemnly, “No matter what, please give a call first and try!”
After speaking, he hit his grandfather Zhongquan.
