The years of red flags

Chapter 1494 Roast Camel

"I'm a little tired. I'm old after all." The king raised his hand and said, "Let's go and rest first. You can talk to my children. They just said they want to consult you about something."

The king and his crown prince are both old. At this stage, they are in a state of brother succeeding brother. When the king came to the throne, he was already 81 years old, and his crown prince is now in his 70s. These two elderly people really cannot stay up late.

After the two old men left, a group of princes in their thirties and forties began to surround Jiang Hua and ask questions.

"Mr. Jiang, I would like to ask what the selection process for astronauts is like?"

Jiang Hua frowned and thought for a while: "Anyway, the astronauts selected in our country are usually ace pilots. They can be selected as astronauts after passing rigorous tests. Then they can go through rigorous training and finally become real astronauts."

The princes looked at each other, thinking that they did not have careers as pilots, and wondered if that meant they would never be able to become astronauts.

"Mr. Zhang, do you think it is possible for us to privately sponsor 200 million US dollars?" A prince said with a smile, "Let us become astronauts. If we need to launch into space, we will also cover the expenses. I have no other intentions, I just want to travel in outer space."

"We will definitely have an outer space tourism project." Jiang Hua nodded: "But we need to wait. In the early stage, we will definitely focus on scientific research tasks. After the space is stable, not to mention traveling to outer space, you may even be able to travel to the moon. You know, our moon landing plan has been implemented."

Several princes immediately rubbed their hands, and the one who just spoke directly stretched out a slap: "I can personally sponsor another 500 million US dollars, just ask that after you land on the moon in the future, you can let me go to the moon for a visit."

"So are we."

Jiang Hua smiled and said, "The exploration spirit of the princes is admirable, but I can only say that your plan has to be postponed. A rough estimate is that it will take at least ten to fifteen years."

"It doesn't matter, we can wait." The prince smiled and said, "In fact, the Ugly Country also has such a space program, but I don't trust them very much."

Jiang Hua smiled and asked, "Chouguo is now the most advanced aerospace power in the world, why don't you believe him?"

"Their moon landing plan could be fake. If they landed on the moon back then, why didn't they do it again for the next 40 or 50 years?" The prince asked, "So I think their plan was fake, and their technology has been regressing over the years. If they had been improving, they should have been able to land on the moon by now."

Jiang Hua gave the prince a thumbs up and said, "You are so clear-headed and you saw the key point of the problem at a glance. I don't know whether his manned moon landing was fake, but his technology is regressing. This is the truth. They no longer have the technology they had back then."

"It must be fake. I have analyzed their video frame by frame." The prince said proudly, "I can say with absolute certainty that it was shot in a movie."

He is definitely a rich fool. Which good person would have the leisure to analyze the video frame by frame? Only people like him who have little money and have nothing better to do would do this.

The matter ended here. Before leaving, Muhammad really invited him to his oasis to roast a camel.

Jiang Hua stood on the commanding heights in the oasis, looking into the distance with a telescope. There was also an oasis not far from here, but it was not as beautiful as Muhammad's land, and the degree of greening was not high either.

Mohammed looked in the direction of Jiang Hua and said with a smile: "That's the land of one of my cousins. He just started to green it last year. It's far worse than my land." "I really hope that next time I come here, your land will be green all the way." Jiang Hua said in a nice way: "Then you can develop tourism. Desert tourism, plus roasted camels, will definitely be a success."

"I don't care about this little money, but the desert turning green is very important to our country." Mohammed said excitedly: "Thank you for your blessing, and thank you to your company's employees. Their hard work is the reason why the desert is turning green."

Mohammed started laughing as he spoke: "You know, last year my cousin saw green in the desert, and he was so excited that he gave gold bricks to the workers who were planting trees, two gold bricks for each. The workers were so excited that they fainted, just like my cousin fainted when he saw the green."

"Or maybe you are a wealthy family with a lot of money." Jiang Hua said with a smile: "It smells so good, the roasted camel is almost done."

"I had it prepared here the day you came." Mohammed said with a smile, "It's almost ready to eat today. Come on, I'll give you the most precious ingredients first."

The so-called most noble ingredient is actually an egg. They stuff the egg into the belly of a fish, then the fish into the belly of a chicken, then the chicken into the belly of a sheep, and finally into a camel. Finally, the egg will be given to the most noble guest.

As expected of a calorie atomic bomb, Jiang Hua, although old, can still eat a lot. However, he really couldn't eat much of this roasted camel.

When leaving, Mohammed also gave Jiang Hua many gifts with Arabic characteristics. Jiang Hua also welcomed him to visit the flower-growing family again, and Jiang Hua would definitely treat him well then.

After returning to China, Jiang Hua immediately went to the Space Administration to report on his work.

"30 billion dollars?" The leader was shocked: "Are you sure it's 30 billion, not 3 billion or 300 million."

"Of course."

The leader asked curiously: "What do they want?"

"It's just for the sake of face." Jiang Hua said with a smile: "Leader, you are too petty. Those idle princes told me that if they were allowed to go to outer space, they would cover the launch fee and privately sponsor $200 million. If they go to the moon, it would be $500 million."

The leader scratched his head and said, "30 billion. That's all the money we have for our space station project."

Jiang Hua continued, "The king said that if they accept their international students to study aerospace technology, they will sponsor the school one million US dollars for each student they accept."

"This is not in line with our policy for international students."

Jiang Hua nodded: "I thought so too, and I told people about it. They said they don't need us to give their students living expenses. Their government will take care of it. If they don't allow us to sponsor them in advance, then for every qualified international student we train, they will sponsor us 2 million US dollars."

"As expected of a capitalist, the more you negotiate this deal, the more money you make."
