“Check-in successful. Reward: One Bombardier Global 8000.”
A Bombardier Global 8000?
Ever since Chu Wanchen bound with the system, she had been cramming knowledge about the world of the ultra-wealthy. Naturally, she knew that Bombardier was the Rolls-Royce of the private jet world.
She could be certain now that the system provided rewards based on her current needs.
Just yesterday, she and her mother had agreed to go on a trip, and today she was rewarded with a private jet.
She searched the internet and learned that the Bombardier Global 8000 was the latest private jet released by Bombardier.
It was currently the fastest and longest-range business jet in the world.
The entire aircraft could accommodate 19 passengers. The cabin was fully equipped with bedrooms and a kitchen, and there was even a dedicated lounge for the flight crew.
The price tag was as high as 80 million USD.
“Chenchen, how is the packing going? If you’re almost done, we’ll buy tomorrow’s plane tickets to go back.”
Seeing her daughter come downstairs, Shao Wenxin immediately inquired.
Although Shao Wenxin had spent the past few days in Shanghai shopping and enjoying herself, she still missed the cool weather of Qian City.
“Mom, we might not need to buy plane tickets tomorrow.”
“Are you reluctant to leave your dad? Then let’s stay for a few more days so you can spend more time with him.”
Thinking that her daughter was reluctant to leave Father Chu and wanted to stay for a few more days, Shao Wenxin expressed her understanding.
To say how reluctant she was to leave Father Chu, it wasn’t really the case. Chu Wanchen and Father Chu had already spent very little time together over the past few years.
Going back to Qian City now was just returning to their original lifestyle. Besides, the family did not lack money now; if Father Chu wanted to return to Qian City, he could do so at any time.
Fearing that her mother would misunderstand and actually cancel the itinerary, Chu Wanchen hurriedly explained to Shao Wenxin: “Mom, I’m not reluctant to leave Dad. It’s just that the system rewarded me with a private jet today, so we can fly back directly on our private jet.”
Hearing this, Mother Chu made the final decision and said: “Then we will go sign for and receive the plane in a little while, and tomorrow we will fly straight home on your private jet.”
Chu Wanchen naturally had no objections. After the two finished breakfast, they drove to Shanghai’s Guanglan International Airport.
When they arrived at the airport, personnel from the Bombardier company were already waiting in the lobby.
The system always handled matters meticulously. Along with rewarding Chu Wanchen with the plane, all the aircraft purchase procedures were also handed over to her.
With the paperwork complete, the plane was handed over very quickly.
Domestically, there were airlines that specialized in managing private jets for people. After Chu Wanchen received the plane, people from an airline came over to ask the two if they needed to place the aircraft under托管 (trusteeship/management).
Do not think that after purchasing a private jet, you no longer need to spend money. Daily maintenance of the aircraft, hiring crew members, and applying for flight routes—no matter which one it was, they were all extremely expensive.
Lesser wealthy people could not even afford the single item of purchasing the plane, let alone these additional expenses. Therefore, there were not many wealthy people in China who bought private jets.
China Aviation Business Aviation Co., Ltd. was the largest business jet service company in the country and a subsidiary of China Aviation, mainly operating business jet leasing services.
They also carried out businesses like private jet management, but because not many people in China owned private jets, the performance of the company’s management department was inferior to that of the leasing department.
Now, having finally seen a local tycoon in the country who could afford Bombardier’s private jet—and Bombardier’s latest model at that—the management department naturally had to exert all their strength to win over such a powerful client.
The person in charge introduced the services their company could provide to the two of them. Whether it was daily maintenance or applying for flight routes on their behalf, the company could even provide the crew members.
China Aviation’s business happened to fit Chu Wanchen’s current needs. They needed to use the plane tomorrow. Signing a contract with China Aviation today and letting China Aviation handle the other trivial matters for them could save the two of them a lot of time.
Therefore, she signed the contract very readily and paid a hefty service fee.
Of course, China Aviation’s service was equally worthy of its price.
Normally, applying for a flight route required waiting for a period of time, but the service Chu Wanchen chose was China Aviation’s top-tier service, and their route arrangements would always be ranked first.
So even if they were flying to Qian City tomorrow, it could still be accomplished.
At the same time, China Aviation also prepared a 7-person professional flight crew team for Chu Wanchen. Among them, the captain’s piloting experience reached 15 years, and the co-pilot’s piloting experience was also 10 years.
This team could be said to be one of China Aviation’s top teams. Only when serving the most distinguished clients would China Aviation equip such a team.
After resolving the matter of the plane, the two still made a trip to the shopping mall.
Today they mainly came to buy gifts to bring back to their family. Although they had come over to buy some souvenirs a few days ago, what they bought that day were mostly small souvenirs, and the gifts for truly close family members had not yet been bought.
Entering the mall, the two went straight to the supplement shop on the second floor. Although the elders’ health at home was still considered robust, eating some supplements daily would never do any harm.
After buying bird’s nest, ginseng, sea cucumber, and other supplements in the supplement shop, they went to various major luxury stores.
Shao Wenxin wanted to choose a few bags for her younger sister and her sister-in-law.
Her maternal aunt had been extremely close to her own mother since childhood, and the two did not reduce their contact even after growing up and forming their own families.
Although both of them were currently in Qian Province, one was in Qian City and the other was in Shun City.
The two places were an hour’s drive apart. Due to their respective work reasons, they did not have much time to meet each year.
However, the distance did not alienate their relationship. Because of her work, her maternal aunt often went on business trips all over the country. Coupled with her strong working capability, her salary was also high.
Every time she returned from a business trip, she always brought gifts for Shao Wenxin and Chu Wanchen. But Shao Wenxin used to have no money and could not return much of a gift. Although her maternal aunt didn’t say anything, Shao Wenxin herself would feel embarrassed.
Now that she had money, Shao Wenxin naturally wanted to bring gifts to her own sister as well.
Although her sister-in-law was not very close to her, she would buy gifts for Chu Wanchen during every holiday and festival, so Shao Wenxin naturally had to return the gesture.
The two did not browse much this time. With a strong sense of purpose, they took two Hermès Kelly bags, paid, and left. Shao Wenxin also bought a Van Cleef & Arpels Alhambra bracelet for her sister.
The two did not delay much and went straight back to Tang Palace. Believing they were going to leave by civil aviation tomorrow, the two had not prepared too much luggage.
Now that they could ride a private jet, Chu Wanchen and Shao Wenxin naturally wanted to bring more things back.
There were many things that could not be bought in Qian City. Although they could be purchased online through the store associates, these all required time. It was better to bring them back themselves if they could.
The two decided to return to Qian City tomorrow morning. Packing up their luggage now and having dinner with Father Chu tonight, the two’s itinerary in Shanghai could come to a successful conclusion.
