Chapter 98 - 99. Plane"Oh, an Airbus. I didn't think about that. You know, I just decided to buy a plane today, so I don't know what needs to be done when purchasing one," Neo said.
"Is that so? I can help you with all the paperwork once you decide what to buy. Let me introduce you to the Airbus A350-1000. The Airbus A350-1000 is the largest variant of the A350 family, designed for long-range, wide-body passenger travel. It offers a 9-abreast configuration, accommodating around 350-410 passengers in a three-class setup, and boasts a range of approximately 8,400 nautical miles."
"Okay, I know it's big, but enough to accommodate 410 passengers? It's super big. How much is it? And can it be customized?"
"Here's the thing: the seller has only used the plane once and has already customized it. It features six bedrooms, two full-size rooms, and four rooms that can accommodate 20 passengers each. There's also a room for a flight steward, plus a bar, entertainment area, and dining room. Let me send you the pictures." Steve introduced the plane and sent pictures to Neo.
Upon seeing the pictures, Neo was amazed at how much it resembled a house in the sky. "Okay, I want this one."
"Are you sure? The plane itself costs $400 million, and the customization adds another $150 million, bringing the total to $550 million. This Airbus was made in 2024." Steve was a bit baffled. 'Are you buying shoes or something? Think carefully, man. The plane costs only $500, if you negotiate I'll give it for $510 million.
"Alright, $550 million. I'll give you $600 million, and you handle all the paperwork and find me a hangar to rent or buy in California. Can you do that? The rest of the money is yours, or is it not enough?"
What the hell? Even Elon Musk would think hard when buying something like this. "$50 million is a generous fee for all that. I have a friend selling a hangar for $30 million. Plus, to operate the plane, you'll need a permit, which will cost at most $1 million," Steve replied.
"I'm giving you the extra to expedite the process. Money will work for you, right? Hahaha! So can you get it done in a week?" Neo asked.
"It sure can be done in a week. Just give me your address. You'll also need to hire a mechanic and a pilot, and you'll need someone to deliver food," Steve added.
"That's a lot to manage. Maybe I should hire someone to take care of all this? Just contact me when you visit my house for the turnover of the plane and the hangar. Oh, and I need two helicopters—the Bell 525 and the Airbus ACH 160."
"Let me think... The Bell 525 is $15 million, and the Airbus ACH 160 is $22 million. Do you need a hangar for those as well?" Steve inquired.
"No, just deliver them to my house at this address... That brings the total to $637 million. I'll transfer $650 million to you, and you'll provide me with all the papers and permits. Give me your account number and I'll transfer the money now."
"Doing business with you is a great experience. You are very generous. Here's my account number," Steve said.
Neo opened his banking app on his phone and sent the money to Steve. "Sent! Just give me a call when you're done and ready for me to sign all the papers."
"Okay, Neo. It's been nice doing business with you." Steve turned off his phone and shouted excitedly, "YES! $81 million in a single day. Let me find out who Neo is. Based on his voice, he sounds like he's in his late 20s or early 30s." Steve opened his computer and
