"I called you here today to tell you about the construction of the airport."

"What do you want me to do?"

"Ask for help."

"What do you need?"

"Money. Supplies."

He Guoguang was not polite either.

You have to be direct when talking to your disciple.

If you go round and round with him, he may not understand it at all. Or he may understand it wrongly.

Building an airport will definitely require money.

However, the money and food that local and national governments can provide are very limited.

There is still fighting at the front. There are still misfortunes everywhere. The troops have not yet had time to replenish. How much food can be allocated from where?

Not only money and food, but also strong labor and civilian labor are all in urgent need of resources.

Strong men can be added to the army to serve as soldiers.

Nowadays, people are no longer recruited according to the rules and drawn. In some places, people are arrested on sight.

The idea of ​​two Dings drawing one and three Dings drawing two has collapsed. Anyone who is Ding has been conquered.

It's chaos.

No one can control it.

As a result, the elite direct descendants of the national army were unable to raise enough soldiers.

And those local miscellaneous troops, who are crazy about recruiting young men, have added a lot of people. They catch people and don't train them, which is wasted.

As a result, conflicts between the direct troops of the national army and local troops began to intensify.

Of course, these have nothing to do with Zhang Yong for the time being.

"How many are needed?"

"It would be best if we could solve the problem of five hundred thousand French currency."

"Okay. I agree."

"Thanks."

"In addition, I support another 15,000 tons of cement."

"What?"

He Guoguang thought he heard wrongly.

The skinny and tired cheeks had a rare and unusual red glow.

Fifteen thousand tons of cement?

Is this what Zhang Yong is talking about?

cement?

Fifteen thousand tons?

"teacher……"

"Shaolong, what did you just say?"

"I got about 15,000 tons of cement from the Sicilians, and I gave it all to the teacher."

"Good. Good. Good."

He Guoguang's face really turned red this time.

Fifteen thousand tons of cement. That's right.

Zhang Yong did it.

That would be great.

In fact, when building an airport, the most lacking thing is cement.

It should be noted that there are no cement plants around Chongqing. It is basically impossible to obtain cement.

Other stones, sand, etc. are easier to solve.

As for the steel bars…

We are just building an airport, what kind of steel bars are needed?

These days, reinforced concrete, as the foreigners call it, is used to build skyscrapers.

Airport runways only need cement and stones, which are strong enough.

The same goes for building houses.

The combination of red bricks and cement has surpassed 99% of buildings.

It is a brick-concrete structure and can be built with about five floors without any problem.

"When can it be delivered?"

"It's okay now."

"Send it to where?"

"It can only be sent to Chaotianmen Pier. The shipping is too heavy."

"well."

He Guoguang was relieved. Just send it to the dock.

He then organized laborers to transport it from the dock. Although it was very laborious, it was very worth it.

Zhang Yong thinks it is simple. Shipping is really simple.

Fifteen thousand tons of cement may be pulled out of the cylinder if it is pulled by a car.

But if it's shipped by ship, it can be delivered up to ten times. Each shipment is 1,500 tons. It's a piece of cake.

"Shaolong, what did you say just now?"

"What did I say?"

"Three runways?"

"right."

"How many meters long is each runway?"

"3600 meters."

"Exaggerated. Exaggerated."

He Guoguang smiled and shook his head. This request was impossible to fulfill.

According to the plan, a runway with a length of 800 meters is to be built. The surface will be compacted with gravel and covered with sand.

"It's okay to do it step by step." Zhang Yong said it didn't matter.

It seems that there is really no need to do it all in one step.

Let’s expand it slowly in the future.

Under the current situation, there is no need for three runways, let alone 3,600 meters.

In the era of propeller aircraft, an 800-meter runway was enough for fighter jets to take off. This included all types of propeller fighter jets.

If the runway is extended to 2,000 meters, very large bombers can take off and land.

B-29, what are you looking at? It's you. You need the longest runway.

However, a 2000-meter runway is enough.

After entering the jet age, the runways required will become longer and longer.

The 3,600-meter runway is used to take off and land behemoths like the An-225. It is known as the largest aircraft in history.

"When will construction start?"

"May or June."

"good."

Zhang Yong said nothing more.

He doesn't understand construction. He is only good at destruction.

After summer, the Yangtze River rises and the Coral Dam Airport will be submerged and unusable.

At that time, only Guangyangba Airport, Jiulongpo Airport, etc. can be used. However, these two airports have short runways and cannot take off and land bombers.

It may even be dangerous for a BA-65 fighter jet to land. The runway needs to be extended.
