Chapter 876: 801 Two Princes_2 Chapter 876: 801 Two Princes_2 “If you don’t buy my parts or use my engines, I won’t give you safety certification, and you won’t qualify to fly international routes—what? You think I’m being overbearing? Well, bite me.”

Therefore, Great Tang Group was very keen for the whole world to use their civilian aircraft and adopt their standards.

Thus, on the very night after the parade had concluded, Great Tang Group signed a series of civil aviation cooperation memorandums with many countries and individuals.

Eventually, what had started as memoranda of understanding almost turned into actual contracts with deposits paid: Harry managed to sell 2,100 civilian passenger planes within six hours.

Yes, these were the civilian versions of the C-47 transport plane, namely the star product of Douglas Company, the famous DC-3 passenger aircraft.

This aircraft had a crew of three and could carry 28 passengers at a time, transporting them up to 2,000 kilometers away.

Despite the discomfort of planes in this era, they did offer a number of very era-specific perks: for instance, you could smoke in the plane and so on.

...

Since a large number of civilian planes had been sold, the accompanying radio equipment that came with these planes was no longer a secret.

For this reason, the C-47’s price tag was exorbitant, and a purchase had to be for more than 200 units at a time. Despite this, the orders for these planes were still astonishingly numerous.

For countries with outdated plane technology, the aircraft’s engines, structural design, radio devices, and so on were of great reference value, making the purchase absolutely worthwhile.

On the other hand, these countries also needed to quickly establish their own civil aviation to enhance the convenience of transportation and to facilitate the high-level control of the country.

With the advent of aircraft, the mobilization speed of important personnel had been reduced from the previous month or more to within a single day, which was clearly a very enticing piece of good news.

Due to the vast number of orders to fulfill, Great Tang Group had no choice but to establish a new aircraft production base in Xicong, dedicated to the production of DC-3 transport planes.

Meanwhile, the various countries had no choice but to select personnel once again to become the new ground staff and technicians for civil aviation.

To save money, some of these people would be sent to Tang Country for training, while the majority would learn the relevant technology at home, taught by highly-paid technical instructors from Tang Country.

After the delivery of the 2,100 DC-3 transport planes, all spare parts and associated equipment for all DC-3 planes were to be procured from Great Tang Group, as per the regulations.

The next morning when Tang Mo woke from his sleep, he still didn’t know that a large sum of money had been added to his account. Now, he could proudly say, “Money is just a number to me.”

Having become His Majesty The Emperor, he spent the evening enjoying a lavish dinner with his three wives and two children, then wisely chose to sleep in his own office.

Seeking the company of any Imperial Concubine at such a time easily affected the happiness index of the other two, and just as easily led his ministers to misconceptions, pressuring them to consider taking sides among the princes.

Therefore, regardless of the reason, Tang Mo considered it unwise to engage in any irrational actions at such sensitive times.

The good news was that all three Imperial Concubines were understanding women; they didn’t give Tang Mo a hard time at this juncture, each returning to their bedrooms and dutifully locking their doors.

Having once again narrowly escaped a battleground, Tang Mo was starting to understand the pain of those time management gurus. And this was with only three—if there were four or five, he imagined he would have a headache.

Alright, he admitted that if he really out of his mind enticed any more women, Yulin, who held the domestic affairs portfolio, and the seemingly harmless finance queen Alice, would probably make the other party evaporate in an instant.

Thinking about this, he felt that his decisive rejection of Princess Nanla’s self-offered pillow was an exceedingly wise decision.

Little lambs should not seek thrills amongst the big bad wolves; one careless move and they could be heading back to the spring waters…

“How does it feel to become an emperor, Your Majesty?” Tang Mo pushed open the door and saw Wes’s lecherously grinning face.

“Not bad, how about you? Does being a close official to the Emperor give you a bit of a sense of achievement?” Tang Mo asked with a smile.

“I admit, I’m feeling a bit high… like I’ve had a bit too much to drink,” Wes laughed even more radiantly. He followed Tang Mo to the dining room.

He had earned the right to laugh foolishly in front of Tang Mo with his loyalty. Their relationship was not like that of emperor and subject but more like close friends.

However, Wes knew his boundaries; he only occasionally teased when alone and inconsequential, and Tang Mo did not mind this light-hearted banter.

“Daddy!” The eldest son saw his father and immediately stretched out his little hands, calling out with a milky voice that was not very clear.

“Hehe!” The other son giggled foolishly, melting Tang Mo’s heart.

The two little ones were still innocently adorable and did not change anything just because they had been promoted from princes to imperial princes. They were not of the age yet, nor were they aware of the heights their father had reached.

The entire room was resplendently decorated; the chandelier was designed by a famous artist from the Northern Region of the Great Tang, both extravagant and immense. It easily illuminated every corner of the dining room, making the three beauties who had arrived there first shine brilliantly.
