Super-rich: Spending money is just a job!
Chapter 250 Accident 1
In the summer, DouDou said she wanted to see animals. XiaoMeng guessed she wanted to go to the zoo.
But Lang Ge got her a big deal. He booked a family tour package for the child, which was basically the whole family going to the African savanna, staying in thatched huts, and riding in a truck covered with barbed wire to see wild animals.
It's quite ridiculous to make such a big deal out of it, especially since the tickets are so expensive—nearly 100,000 yuan for three people.
Dou Dou is five years old now. She has already read many picture books and knows a lot of things. She was naturally very excited when she heard that Uncle Lang was going to take her to the African savanna to see big and small animals.
So the three of them set off. Xiaomeng didn't go, because this was the first trip for the "family of three".
Xiaomeng's original plan was for them to take their family's Gulfstream plane to Africa, as it would save them the trouble of changing flights. However, that plane was undergoing maintenance. So they had to take a public airline flight instead.
They departed from Beijing's airport on an international flight to Abu Dhabi in the Middle East. They then transited through Abu Dhabi before transferring to a flight bound for Africa.
After the plane arrived in Cairo, we transferred to a domestic flight and headed to the grasslands.
Xiaomeng had been calculating the time; they should have arrived at their destination by now. But she waited and waited, and still no one called to let her know they were safe. When she tried to call, it showed that the other party had no signal and the call couldn't be connected.
This made Xiaomeng very worried. She immediately called the grassland resort hotel where they were headed to inquire, only to find that they hadn't arrived at the hotel yet.
Xiaomeng realized something was wrong and immediately tried to check the airline's information. Fortunately, Cuiling had a good habit of reporting information to her. Xiaomeng tried to call the airline's international number according to the ticket information, but found that the line was constantly busy.
It was Sister Zhang who logged onto the network in Africa and discovered that the airline had just been involved in an aviation accident.
Xiao Meng didn't wait any longer. She rented a private jet in Beijing and headed straight to Africa. She barely stopped in between, only refueling in Dubai. In less than ten hours, she landed at Dar es Salaam Airport.
Just then, she received a message on her phone from her older sister, saying that the plane they were on had an engine problem and crashed into a forest or rainforest. All three of them were safe, but they needed to find someone to rescue them as soon as possible.
Xiao Meng's heart, which had been floating in the sky, finally settled down.
Luckily, my sister had a domestically made phone with satellite calling capabilities; expensive phones are reliable, after all.
Xiaomeng didn't know how to get help, and she had no connections in Africa. Having no other option, she went to the embassy to try and find someone to help her.
When embassy staff checked, it was indeed true; there were Chinese citizens on board—a family of three. They quickly organized a local rescue team to search for them.
Xiaomeng placed a box of US dollars on the embassy staff's desk, urging them to mobilize for the rescue as soon as possible. She wanted a massive, coordinated rescue operation, deploying both air and ground resources. She promised an extra bonus to the first search and rescue team to find the person.
The embassy staff then realized that this person was not short of money, and quickly put the brakes on Xiaomeng, as they could not give her too much, otherwise the African "search and rescue teams" would start fighting, which would be detrimental to the search and rescue.
Knowing that Xiaomeng was well-off, the embassy directly arranged for her to join the local armed forces closest to the scene of the incident.
As embassy staff of the five permanent members of the UN Security Council, the local forces they encountered were certainly not small gangs.
For some reason, the other side was so frightened that they mobilized all their mobile forces overnight and headed into that rainforest.
The off-road vehicle didn't dare to save fuel and immediately drove into the rainforest.
The helicopters didn't dare to hold back on fuel; they all flew out and searched along the flight path.
While waiting, Xiaomeng took the time to send a message in her group of influential friends, seeking a way to quickly find the person.
Xiao Tang messaged her privately and introduced her to a friend who owns shares in a satellite technology company. This friend could help her find people using satellite remote sensing technology.
Xiaomeng quickly asked how much it would cost to use satellite to find someone.
Xiao Tang asked around, and his friend said that their company charges for remote sensing images by the square meter, averaging 5 yuan per square meter.
"This is too cheap!" Xiaomeng nodded quickly. "Okay, go ahead and bid. I can pay you ten yuan per square meter. You can bid as much as you want, as long as we find the people today. I'll also give the operations team a 500,000 yuan bonus."
At Cuiling's place, her and Lang Mingxi's cell phones were intermittently transmitting location signals.
With this location information, and by using satellite positioning and remote sensing technology, the satellite located the person before the local armed forces' helicopters could even spot the target.
Xiaomeng excitedly reported the coordinates to the embassy staff and notified the leaders of the armed group there to quickly send a helicopter to pick up the people according to the coordinates.
Fortunately, less than 48 hours after the plane crash, Cui Ling and her family were sent back to Dar es Salaam.
Xiaomeng couldn't contain her emotions and hugged her older sister, crying bitterly. "From now on, you're not allowed to go abroad to see any wild animals anymore. If you want to see them, you can only go to the zoo."
