Chapter Ninety-Three: Sharing the Cake (Asking for Collection)

"Your Majesty, the 'Caesar-class' battleship navy plans to build a total of five, and the other four are also requested to be named by Your Majesty. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Marshal Count Tirpitz looked at Wilhelm II expectantly.

The previous 'Helgoland-class' battleships were built in total, a total of five. Therefore, Marshal Count Tirpitz rightly thought that the 'Caesar-class' battleships should also be built five.

Others have no objection to this. Although the cost of each battleship is very high, if you build five at once, the total cost may exceed 300 million marks. But since the navy has the ability to build so much, of course others will not stop it and become evildoers.

Wilhelm II nodded: "The lead ship of the 'Caesar-class' battleship is the battleship 'Caesar', the second ship is named 'Frederick the Great', the third ship is named 'Catherine', the fourth ship is named 'King Albert', and the fifth ship is named 'Regent Louitpold'!" ”

Wilhelm II hesitated a little and gave names to several warships that were about to be built. This makes one wonder if Wilhelm II had already prepared these names. As soon as the ship-building plan is approved, these names and dishes will be revealed.

"Your Majesty is wise, these names are very good!" Marshal Count Tirpitz immediately sent the sycophants to the table.

Others, including Qin Tian, were also sycophants. This pleased Wilhelm II greatly, and a smile was piled up on his face.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. This time, the Navy plans to build a total of eight warships of two classes, which shipyards will build them? "Chairman of the Technical Committee of the Navy, Von? Count Warren asked.

The German shipyards accounted for the majority of the previously built third-class battleships. Although there was still a mouthful of soup left for other shipyards, there were always shipyards that didn't even take a sip of soup. Although, quite a few of those small and medium-sized in the Navy were allocated to them. But in comparison, everyone still wants to get orders for large warships. After all, orders for large warships are not only profitable, but also a kind of proof of the strength of the shipyard. Shipyards that can build large warships are also a little more confident when it comes to winning civilian orders.

Wilhelm II did not speak, and looked at Qin Tian. After all, both of these battleships were designed by Qin Tian. And the German shipyard has a large number of large slipways. These slipways have been vacated quite a bit. Even if you eat all the eight warships of these two levels, there will be no problem, but it will be a little more difficult.

Qin Tian smiled, he knew that Feng? Count Warren was representing the interests of numerous shipyards. Now, because the German shipyard has received a large number of orders for large military warships, other shipyards have been very jealous. If all the orders for the 'Moltke-class' battlecruisers and the 'Caesar-class' battlecruisers were to be eaten in one fell swoop this time, it would inevitably make the other shipyards very dissatisfied, and even the public enemy of the entire industry of the German shipyards. Although, Qin Tian was not afraid of this. But he didn't have a reason to do that. As a crown prince, if you still compete with others, it will cause many people to be dissatisfied.

"Regarding the construction of the 'Moltke-class' battlecruisers and the 'Caesar-class' battleships, I personally believe that the lead ships" Moltke "and 'Caesar' should be built at the German shipyards. For the others, it's up to the Navy to decide! Qin Tian said.

To be able to get two of the eight warships, that's already a quarter. The other six ships will be handed over to other shipyards to build, which will also be able to benefit evenly, allowing them to enjoy the cake brought about by the expansion of naval strength. This is also necessary to win the support of this part of the population. Germany, after all, is a capitalist country. The owners of those shipyards undoubtedly also have great influence. Qin Tian didn't want to push these guys to his opposite.

Besides, the German Navy is not something that can be supported by a single shipyard like the German Shipyard, and it requires the concerted efforts of many shipyards.

In addition, Qin Tian also plans to build large oil tankers at the German shipyard to accumulate experience for the construction of aircraft carriers in the future.

"Well, just do it according to the Crown Prince's advice!" Wilhelm II nodded in satisfaction. Qin Tian was able to divide these interests instead of eating alone by himself, which made Wilhelm II very satisfied. In Wilhelm II's view, Qin Tian is growing rapidly, becoming more and more like a crown prince, and even more and more like a monarch.

Feng? Count Warren also breathed a sigh of relief. Qin Tian didn't eat alone, but gave up most of the benefits, and finally let other shipyards get some orders this time. An order for six large warships will satisfy at least six large shipyards.

"Is this kid really not even twenty years old? Why is he so sophisticated? Moltke muttered to himself. He thought more and more that Qin Tian's performance was not at all like a person who was not even twenty years old, but like an old fox. This also made him wonder if it was the right thing to choose to go against Qin Tian.

And Marshal Tirpitz, looking at Qin Tian, his eyes were full of praise. Originally, he was going to remind Qin Tian that this time he couldn't eat alone anymore. But he didn't expect Qin Tian to realize this himself.

"The German Empire has such an imperial crown prince, which is completely a blessing for the entire empire!" Marshal Count Tirpitz couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

In fact, Qin Tian just didn't look down on these profits at all. With the completion of the expansion of the business of the German Welfare Lottery Company throughout the European and American world, it can bring huge profits to Qin Tian every month. In comparison, the profits from the construction of warships at the German shipyards are not worth mentioning at all.

The reason why Qin Tian cared about the German shipyard was entirely because of the huge influence brought by a large shipyard. After all, the battleships of this era can be regarded as the crystallization of science and technology, and the shipyards that can build large battleships are undoubtedly the top in terms of technical strength. Such a shipyard can be regarded as a key enterprise no matter what country it is in.

In addition, Qin Tian also hopes that the German shipyard can act as a catfish in the German shipbuilding field and inspire the rapid development of other shipyards. This will undoubtedly be of great help to further enhance the strength of the German Navy.

It can be seen that in order to develop the strength of the German Navy and ensure that Germany can win in the future war, Qin Tian can be said to have taken great pains.

Under Qin Tian's intention, this time the 'Nassau' battleship was put into service, and the guests and hosts were happy.
