Chapter 322: Chapter 316: Coming Back Down
Finn Lewis didn’t say anything but fell into deep thought. His left index finger drummed rhythmically on the table, instantly quieting the room. Everyone’s eyes were fixed on Lewis. After perhaps tens of seconds, Lewis suddenly spoke, “OK, two planes. Yours is 450 million Federal coins, right? 310 million pounds sterling?! ”
“Correct, 450 million.” Michael Bolton did a quick mental calculation. Although the figure was slightly higher than 450 million, he didn’t mind the minor discrepancy. Even based on a price of 450 million, there was still almost a 50% profit for Sky Crane.
“30 million Federal coins.” Gary Greer interjected succinctly.
“Well, that’s a total of 480 million Federal coins, write that down Hall,” Finn said to Luca Hall. Once Hall had duly noted the figure, Lewis continued, “I cannot wait 20 days, 15 is the maximum I can afford. I want to see the two planes in that time.”
Gary Greer thought for a while. Working overtime for 5 days was all it would take, so he confidently agreed: “No problem, 15 days. Mr. Lewis, it’ll be in any airport anywhere in the world.”
“Well, gentlemen, now that we’ve made our deal, all we have left are the flight routes. What say you help me discuss this matter? I am not well-versed in each country’s airspace regulations, ” Finn said directly.
“We can handle the Southern Federation and Liga State among others. Those are not too difficult. How about Private Air Services under Pan American Air?” Oscar Blair was the first to make a suggestion.
“On the Southern Federation side, it is a bit of a shortfall but EADS and Lufthansa are options for private air trusteeships,” Lawrence Rodger chimed in.
“I request that our boss must become a member at the diamond level or above of the airport authorities worldwide. In other words, our boss must be allowed to land at any airport in any country at any time. Annual fees are not a problem. Moreover, for aircraft maintenance, I don’t care which private jet trusteeship we use, but there is one key point: there must always be a hangar with professional maintenance personnel available.” Hall replied.
“Mr. Hall, rest assured, none of these are a problem. The issue lies with Flame Nation. However, we can handle all the other countries,” Rodger directly said.
As Roger said this, all eyes turned to Matthew Chan. Chan offered an awkward, strained smile and then turned to Lewis saying: “The domestic situation is a bit unique. Private airlines can be difficult to apply for. Generally speaking, Mr. Lewis can sign aircraft trust and other agreements with major domestic airlines. They help maintain and manage the aircraft. All major airlines have their hangers and related offices at domestic airports.”
“It’s easier for these airlines to apply for routes.” Matthew Chan continued. But speaking more bluntly, if Mr. Lewis doesn’t have some connections, it’s quite difficult to obtain flight routes on private jet trusteeships under major airlines.”
“Don’t your banks have any clout? I mean, isn’t it just a matter of a private route?” Gary Greer interjected.
Rodgers and Blair also joined the discussion, while Lewis sat quietly on the sidelines. After all, they were discussing the domestic issues, mainly because the application for private domestic airlines was very troublesome. It would be easier if it were domestic to international flights. But domestic to domestic flights would be more challenging.
Soon, Hall and the others also joined in. Observing at the silent Finn Lewis, Dim Morris couldn’t help but feel in awe. This was a real top-tier tycoon.
Regardless of whether it was Red Flower Bank, Rhine Kingdom Bank, or Silver Bank, Lewis’s status was clear based on Matthew Chan’s attitude.
Now, Lewis was causing a bit of a ruckus with Red Flower Bank, Rhine Kingdom Bank, and Sky Crane over private jet routes. This was the power of capital. However, it was a pity. Morris had been planning to attempt securing a C919 before he had arrived. It now seemed highly unlikely.
“Well, Bank President Chan, hearing your discussions, it seems that these flight routes are difficult to apply for. However, isn’t it possible to sign an agreement with these airlines, spend some money, and let them transfer some civil aviation routes to me?” Lewis suddenly asked.
Lewis had just picked upon this point. To be straightforward, if you want a route between the capital city and Celeston City, you can sign an agreement with Eastern Airlines. They can cancel a flight for you. It’s as if you’ve chartered an entire flight except your private jet would be flying, not Eastern Airlines’. This loophole, if it could be called that was quite uncanny.
“Yes, many domestic private jets operate this way. However, doing so may result in higher annual costs. Plus, you will have to sign related agreements with many airlines.” Matthew Chan responded.
Finn Lewis nodded in understanding, tapping his index finger upon the table and said, “How about this, why not just buy an airline? ”
With his question ringing in the room, the atmosphere became immediately tense. Everyone became suddenly rigid, including Dim Morris. It took a good while before everyone could properly exchange glances, their eyes filled with speechlessness. Gee! Wasn’t it just a matter of flight routes? Buy an airline…!

This… Matthew Chan was already speechless. Should he say that Lewis was obscenely rich? Or that Lewis was a prodigal son? This kind of spending, was it a sign of a tycoon? Right?
Rodgers and Blair didn’t know what to do. Geez! although they have dealt with Finn Lewis countless times, Lewis’s frame of mind… His thinking was beyond any normal person’s capability. Buy a private jet, well, they could forget about that. Buying an airline just for a flight route… They could only say, awesome!
“How about it? Is it not possible?” Lewis looked at the speechless crowd, asking the loaded question.
“Possible. Of course, it’s possible,” Matthew Chan immediately smiled wryly. Signing an agreement with the airlines would work but buying an airline would indeed work as well.
“Well, let’s buy an airline then. Then we can apply for flight routes between cities, right? After the application, I don’t have to operate, and it should be okay, right? I will pay all due fees.” Lewis continued after getting Chan’s nod..
