Chapter 158 Purchasing Property at Milijian
While the theft of the vault had not been discovered, Lin Hao went directly to Tokyo Bay, found a heavy cruiser, and stored the three seaplanes on it into the space.

Another barge was also stored in the space, and soon this thing would be of great use.

Then, Lin Hao ran to a nearby uninhabited sea area and released one of the Hengchang-type seaplanes. However, when Lin Hao looked at the engine, he was greatly disappointed.

"The engine only has 300 horsepower and the top speed is 155 kilometers per hour. This thing seems to be from the 20s!"

Shaking his head, although the plane looked very backward and was obviously not suitable for long-distance flight, Lin Hao used its water take-off and landing function.

Then Lin Hao put away the seaplane.

Releasing a Type 400 fighter jet on the road, it may be a bit ugly, but it can fly at kilometers per hour!

Then Lin Hao sat in the cockpit and closed the glass hatch. "Now I don't need to wear goggles."

Yes, when Lin Hao was in Jinling, he used his locksmith skills to make a glass hatch by himself. As I said, it’s a little ugly, but it can be used.

As the plane slowly took off, Lin Hao was very glad that radar was not yet popular at that time.

The world's first practical radar was invented by the Great Ying Empire this year, and the first radar station was built the next year, in January 1936.

For the next three or four years, Lin Hao can still fly in the sky without restraint.

After entering the 40s, radar stations were built in various countries. Lin Hao no longer dared to wander around Tokyo so leisurely in the capital of a country.

Looking at the time, it was already half past six in the morning, but the sky was still as dark as ink. Lin Hao flew the plane in the sky, adjusted the direction, and then headed east.

Next stop, Los Angeles!
When the plane reached the east coast of Milijian, two full days had passed.

There is no way. The distance from Tokyo to Los Angeles is too far, more than 8,800 kilometers. If you start from Shanghai, the distance will reach tens of thousands of kilometers.

Every time Lin Hao flies for more than 4 hours, he needs to retract the Type aircraft into space in the sky, then take out the seaplane from the space, and then teleport into it, so that he can rely on the seaplane to land.

After landing safely on the sea, they released the barge brought from Tokyo Bay, boarded the barge, rested on it for an hour, and then continued their journey.

At night, Lin Hao still had to take a nap on the boat. After all, flying a plane over the vast Pacific Ocean at night without any reference points could result in the plane crashing and everyone on board dying if he took a nap.

Therefore, Lin Hao could only drive for about 10 hours during the day, and could fly less than 4000 kilometers, so it took him two full days to arrive.

It was already eight o'clock in the evening. Lin Hao was circling in the sky in his plane. He didn't know his exact location and didn't know whether to fly north or south.

There was not even any light on the coastline, and I couldn't find anyone to ask.

After thinking about it, Los Angeles and Shanghai are at a higher latitude than Tokyo.

I started from Tokyo and flew due west, which means that excluding the possibility of directional deviation, I should be flying south.

Therefore, Lin Hao turned the plane and flew south along the coastline. He saw many towns on the way. Half an hour later, Lin Hao saw the land was brightly lit, so he looked for a place to land in the suburbs without hesitation.

"It seems that my character is still good!" After Lin Hao entered the city, he immediately found that this was Los Angeles.

In that case, what else is there to say? Just release Nerna!
At this time, Nerna's injuries had long been healed. Wearing the suit that Lin Hao bought for him, he looked quite decent.

Lin Hao found a hotel and asked Nerna to register his name, because the entire Milutinovic nation was not very friendly to the Chinese, and the Chinese Exclusion Act was not repealed until December 1943.

Lin Hao doesn't have much time and doesn't want to waste it here, so having a French person as a shield can avoid a lot of trouble.

In the following months, Lin Hao was so busy that he had no time to rest on the ground, and the sky was full of footprints.

First, with the help of Nerna, he obtained an identity in Milijian, Leisen, whose English name is Leisen. A genuine identity allowed Lin Hao to travel and handle affairs normally in Milijian.

Lin Hao first asked Nerna to acquire a small bank in Los Angeles, and then renamed it Rayson Bank. Then Lin Hao bought most of its shares, and then deposited all his gold and US dollar cash into it.

With a large amount of cash, Rayson Bank began to acquire a medium-sized pharmaceutical factory and then purchased equipment related to the production of sulfa drugs.

At this time, sulfonamide had just completed clinical trials, and many pharmaceutical companies began to invest in its production, but most of them still used laboratory preparation, so the output was very small and the price was comparable to gold.

It was not until 1940 that Miljen mastered industrial preparation and mass-produced it for distribution to every soldier.

Moreover, the current drug management of Milijian is basically non-existent, just like European countries, where drugs and food are left to their own devices.

The famous Food and Drug Administration (FDA) was then just a small bureau-level department under the Ministry of Agriculture, with only a hundred or so people in the entire organization.

Therefore, in terms of drug management at this time, we only need to check whether the drug labels are accurate or whether they meet the drug standards. The main work content is still to manage food transportation.

"En..., it feels so good!" At that time, the medicines did not even require basic toxicology testing.

What else is there to say? Sulfonamide is a safe and reliable drug. As long as you don't add any strange things to it, there is basically no risk.

So after Lin Hao took over the pharmaceutical factory directly, he updated some of the equipment, and then adopted later preparation methods, quickly started mass production, and then began selling to the outside world.

At the same time, Lin Hao also found several equipment manufacturers and customized three sets of production equipment for each of them, two of which Lin Hao placed in his own space.

There are also upstream raw material suppliers who purchased a large amount of raw materials, and Lin Hao also put most of them into his own space.

As for the problem of penicillin, Lin Hao didn't take it seriously. Now people in the liberated areas were having problems with food and clothing, so where would they get corn for culture medium?

Moreover, suitable strains are not easy to obtain, so it is better to wait for them to spend a lot of money and resources to screen out the strains and then do it after they have large-scale production technology.

Then Lin Hao handed over the pharmaceutical factory to Chen Minzhang. Part of the sulfonamide produced was sold externally, and part was shipped to Hong Kong by sea.

After arriving in Hong Kong, the drugs will be handed over to Chen Minzhang’s company, Leisen Trading Company, for sale.

Now that the sulfa problem at the pharmaceutical factory had been resolved, Lin Hao turned his attention to the manufacturing of telegraph equipment.

Although Lin Hao has the technology to improve the telegraph, improvement requires not only technology but also industrial foundation. With current technology, Lin Hao needs to spend a lot of time researching to reduce the size of the telegraph, increase the hertz rate, and increase the sending and receiving distance.

Lin Hao felt that there was no need for this at all. The functions of the current telegraph machines were sufficient for use, and there was no need for him to develop them in depth!
Therefore, Lin Hao still let Leisen Bank hold the controlling stake and planned to directly purchase the production license, introduce the production line, and start production directly.

Lin Hao had already thought of a place to put the finished products. At this time, both the Party-State and the Red Party continued to produce telegraph machines, so the telegraph machines produced by Lin Hao had no trouble selling.

Now that the communication problem has been solved, the next issue is weaponry.

The weapons that Lin Hao wanted to manufacture were not rifles, submachine guns, or artillery.

Instead, they manufactured this batch of the most scarce air defense weapons in the country, and the first thing Lin Hao thought of was: the M2 Browning large-caliber heavy machine gun.

This thing can be equipped with a tripod and used directly for air defense. It is definitely a good thing for China that has lost its air defense advantage.

The gun fires 12.7×99mm caliber bullets, including ordinary bullets, armor-piercing incendiary bullets, armor-piercing bullets, tracer bullets, armor-piercing tracer bullets, armor-piercing incendiary tracer bullets, armor-piercing discarding sabot bullets, hard-core armor-piercing bullets, training bullets, etc.

When the gun is empty, the total weight of the gun is 38.2 kg, and 58.2 kg with a tripod. The effective range is 1800 meters and the maximum range is 2500 meters. The bullets are fed by a belt.

As we all know, anti-aircraft weapons attack infantry in daily life, and their final target is armored vehicles and aircraft.

This thing has been in service since its birth until the modern day, with a total of more than 300 million units produced. Like the Browning M1911 pistol, it is known as a generation of magic gun.

Thinking of the M1911 semi-automatic pistol, Lin Hao felt that it could also be introduced for production. After all, it has a long life cycle and this thing is definitely profitable.

As for the bullet it uses, 0.45-inch (11.43mm) pistol bullet, there is no need to worry about it, after all, Yan Laoxi has already produced it himself.

Besides, as long as I am here, I can have as many bullets as I want.

By the way, there is also an M1935 automatic pistol that Guojian ordered from the Belgian FN company. This gun is also a long-lived firearm, which was used until the s before it was replaced by other pistols.

M1935 automatic pistol. Guo Su once ordered thousands of this type of pistol from FN, but the European war broke out soon after and Belgium had no pistols at all, thus interrupting the supply.

Later, Guoju negotiated with Ghana and supplied more than 2 of these pistols after improvements.

As for the concentrated pistols that were popular in the country at that time, one gun, two horses, three flower mouths, four snakes, five dogs, open their mouths and kick.

分别是勃朗宁m1900、勃朗宁m1903、勃朗宁m1910、绍尔m1913、西班牙的快速牌袖珍手枪、毛瑟m1934，另外还有四寸撸子，也就是勃朗宁m1906。

These types of pistols are quite famous, but they are just famous. As for why they are so famous, of course it is because there was no choice in the country before.

That's basically it for firearms. Even if we want to develop other military weapons, we'll have to wait until later, such as the Mark grenade.

This little thing will soon evolve into the Mark 2A1 hand grenade, which can directly become a rifle grenade after removing its fuse.

Finally, there is the issue of the plane, which is the plane that Lin Hao has been dreaming of for a long time.

It was also controlled by Raytheon Bank, and then Lin Hao poached people from all over by offering high salaries and established the Raytheon Aircraft Manufacturing Company.

Lin Hao directly drew the appearance of a P-51 Mustang fighter, and then asked them to produce a shell, but not the original size, but a smaller version of the P51.

Then Lin Hao asked these aircraft engineers to use the R-2-1820 engine on the Hawk 80 aircraft, stack four layers of cylinders, and directly increase the engine power to 4 horsepower.

Of course, such a huge engine definitely cannot be installed in the P51, so Lin Hao made a semi-open hollow cylinder with a diameter of 30 cm, a wall thickness of 5 cm, and a length of 40 cm, and then expanded the space inside to the extreme 1331 cubic meters.

Then, put the 3100-horsepower engine in, extend the main shaft, and install the propeller. Perfect!

Because the engine has become a direct 30-centimeter cylinder, a lot of auxiliary equipment has been reduced, so the weight of the aircraft is only 1.4 tons.

So Lin Hao installed a 5-centimeter steel plate on the cockpit, installed six M2 heavy machine guns on the wings, also built into the cylinder, and made a bomb port on the belly of the plane.

In the end, this scaled-down version of the P51 had unlimited speed (fake), unlimited ammunition (fake), and a bulletproof cockpit.

The maximum speed is over one thousand kilometers per hour. It took more than three months to complete the aircraft.

After repeated test flights to confirm, Lin Hao produced two more aircraft and a seaplane based on this model as his spare aircraft.

Think about the take-off distance, it only takes more than 20 meters to get into the sky. Any large warship can be used as its mother ship as long as it has a deck of more than 20 meters.

Afterwards, a twin-engine version of the P51 was also produced. After flight testing, Lin Hao felt that this was meaningless.

No matter how much horsepower is added, it is difficult for a propeller plane to break the speed of sound. Even if it breaks through, it will only last for a moment and will soon exit supersonic speed. In short, the gain does not outweigh the loss.

So Lin Hao asked the aircraft factory to develop other aircraft around this 3100-horsepower engine.

For example, the P47, a powerful fighter jet, or cargo planes and passenger planes.

At this point, Lin Hao came to Milijian and completed his plan. For more than a month, Lin Hao prepared supplies for the return trip.

We prepared 2000 pistols that had just rolled off the production line, 1911 each of the M1935 and M1. It's not that we don't want to prepare more, but the production line has just started running and all the output is here.

Originally, he wanted to produce the M2 by his own company, but unfortunately, production had not started yet. So Lin Hao purchased 200 enhanced M2HB dual-purpose heavy machine guns from Colt.

In addition, one hundred and twenty boxes of MKⅡ grenades were purchased. This thing is much more powerful than the M24 grenade, but the M24 also has an advantage, it can be used to cluster and bomb tanks.

I also had motorcycles, German BMW R-1000 medium-sized motorcycles that cost 35 marks each. I bought 10 of them so I don't have to ride a bicycle next time.

We also bought five military trucks. Regardless of whether they can be used or not, it is always a good idea to prepare them in advance.

After putting all these weapons and equipment into the space, Lin Hao began to prepare other things.
