Chapter 68 Cheap New Technology (Third update, please collect)

Although money is not everything, in this world, money can solve most things.

The good news came quickly. Just two days later, Alan John Coham took his Air Refueling Company (FRL) and its air refueling technology that he had studied for more than ten years to 2.5 It was sold to Zhenhua Company for a price of 10,000 pounds.

After the contract was signed, Coham came to Li Yian's office. Ji Li walked into the room, holding a tray of porcelain cups, as well as the matching coffee pot, milk jug, sugar bowl, and There were many biscuits. After he poured the coffee and left, Li Yian made a gesture to the cup.

“Alan, as we agreed, the company will pay you this money at a suitable time after the war. During this period, as the manager of FRL Company, the company will pay you every month. Paid £150 salary ”

Why wait until after the war, when it is still the right time, is to evade taxes - no British person is willing to pay 99.6% personal income tax.

This is no longer tax payment, but robbery!

It’s like a robber who was very compassionate and left you a fare after the robbery.

Of course, this abnormal tax amount only applies during the war. That's why Coham asked for post-war payments when he sold the company.

“Thank you, sir.”

Coham took a sip of coffee, then added a few spoons of sugar to the cup. After taking a sip, he nodded with satisfaction.

This is the taste.

God can testify, he has not drank such sweet coffee for a long time.

Then he ate another biscuit.

Coham's appearance made Li Yian sigh in his heart, lamenting the changes in people's lives caused by the war.

A bag of sugar can enter a woman's boudoir, and a pair of silk stockings can turn an aristocratic lady into a prostitute on the street. Even such a well-known and well-known pilot did not care about his dignity when drinking coffee.

The life of scarcity of materials has brought too many changes to people's lives.

"Alan, I hope you can go to the United States to conduct further research on aerial refueling technology."

Compared with the United Kingdom, the United States is now more suitable for aerial experiments. After all, in Britain...maybe he encountered a German plane while flying.

“Go to America!”

Coham's eyes lit up as he was eating biscuits, and then he said again.

"But, I'm afraid it's not easy to go to the United States now."

"I will solve this problem."

Li Yian said with a smile. Unlike in the past, as a Pentagon contractor, he can now take military planes directly to and from New York and London. If necessary, he can also take some people to the United States through special visas.

"Can my family come with me?"

Coham has long been fed up with the extreme shortage of supplies in the UK. It would be great if he could take his family to the United States.

"It's not possible right now, let's wait until after the war..."

Li Yian looked at him and said, when he bought Coham's company, he didn't know that he was a seemingly casual person. The decision directly caused Cobham, the absolute king in the field of fly-anchored hose aerial refueling, to leave the UK and become a North Borneo company.

Of course, I would not have imagined what changes the advance research and development of aerial refueling technology would bring to the world, but one thing is certain, it will definitely change many things.

In fact, during the war, many technologies could be obtained extremely cheaply, even at outrageous prices. After all, during the war, many companies, especially those whose products could not be directly applied to the war, had to sell their products. and technology are not worth mentioning, but often, these technologies contain treasures.

"Sir, this new type of loom uses the high-speed airflow generated by the release of compressed air to pull the weft yarn through the fabric felling to complete the weft insertion. Its working efficiency is higher..."

In In Zhenhua Company's office in London, Swati looked at the Chinese people in front of him and explained his invention to them. Although he was a textile machinery engineer, his life was extremely poor after he went into exile in the UK. Hunger fight.

In order to make a living, he even published his invention-the air-jet loom in a magazine. However, because of the war, no one was interested in the loom. Of course, The most critical reason is that his invention has not been completed yet, only the concept part has been completed.

Because of this, after receiving the letter from Zhenhua Company, he immediately rushed to London to try to sell his invention.

"Of course, Mr. Swati, I believe that your invention can bring changes to the weaving industry, which is why I am willing to buy it. However, I need not only it, but also you. After all, it is For now, it’s not finished yet, right?”

Li Yian looked at the guy in front of him with a smile.

As the inventor of the jet loom, Swati, who was in exile in the UK during World War II, had promoted his invention to people countless times, but it had never been adopted by British companies. After all, whether it was World War II or After the war, neither the British nor Europe had any intention of updating their textile machinery. After returning to the Czech Republic, his invention was adopted for political reasons-to highlight the achievements of the new regime. However, in the following decades, the jets produced in the Czech Republic Air-jet looms have always been the most popular industrial products in Eastern European countries, and companies in Germany, Japan and other countries have introduced air-jet loom technology from the Czech Republic.

This technology may seem inconspicuous, but it is revolutionary for the textile industry. From the 1960s and 1970s, it replaced the arrow loom and became the mainstream loom. It is the future development direction for both the textile industry and the textile machinery industry.

Since it is the future development direction, of course we have to spend money to buy it, not only the technology, but also Swati. After all, the Czech Republic is the leader in air-jet loom technology. It has a fundamental connection with it.

"50 pounds."

Li Yian looked at Swati and said.

“In the future, the company will provide you with a salary of 50 pounds per month, so that you can engage in technical research with peace of mind. In addition, I will pay 1,000 pounds to buy the jet you hold. "Patent for looms."

Sometimes, many things are so cheap. Li Yian doesn't know whether others have bought the bottom, but now...it only costs 1,000 pounds, which is a few hundred pounds of coffee. , in exchange for a new technology worth hundreds of millions of dollars!

Even though it is so cheap, the other party is still grateful...
