Chapter Twenty-Eight: Deep Blue Dreams

Led by Henry, the group came to an open-air dry dock not far from this small shipyard, where a ship nearly forty meters long and about five meters wide was parked, and the tower left behind after the dismantling of the weapon seemed to show people that it was once a warship that chopped the waves, probably thinking that it was damaged in battle or eliminated by the wheels of history, so now it can only lie here rusty, silently experiencing the sun and wind.

Maybe it's because of this battleship, so this dock is abandoned, and now because of the expansion of the business, Henry wants to try to build some larger ships, so this dock is needed, so the disposal of this battleship has become quite tricky, because no shipyard here has the technology to use these steels, although this is a military special steel, it can't be used, and it is worthless to put it here.

"It is our country in the sixties of the last century to China to purchase high-speed frigates, the entire hull is made of a class of special steel, although it is only the first generation of special steel, but we are still unable to process it, because our country's scientific and technological level is too backward."

After Henry introduced the history of the frigate, he began to complain that the steel of the ship was a good thing, but they couldn't use it, and that was scrap metal.

In fact, you must know that the first generation of special steel has long been eliminated by various major countries in the world, so once the warships of this era are decommissioned, they may be used as exhibitions in good condition, and if they are slightly inferior, they can be repaired and repaired, and they can be used as missile targets, and they can be regarded as contributing to the last residual heat, and then a little worse, just like the frigate in front of Jiang Lin, because it is too dilapidated to be repaired, it can only be treated as scrap iron, so Henry, who was excited back then, bought this frigate at a very low price.

Jiang Lin was a little surprised, he didn't expect that this frigate was still from Huaxia, and laughed at himself, this can be regarded as an old acquaintance in a foreign country, right?

Although this boat was sold to Indonesia and is not in the combat sequence of the Chinese Navy, this boat carries the deep blue dream of more than one billion people in China, and the foreign trade of weapons has laid an economic foundation for the development of a powerful navy in China and injected a strong impetus into the development of China's military enterprises.

And Jiang Lin used to be a member of the Chinese People's Army, so the frigate in front of him can be regarded as Jiang Lin's special comrade-in-arms.

Take two steps forward, leaning over to touch the rust on the frigate's body, feeling the strong historical atmosphere, the ship was born for the ocean, but now it has been put into the dry dock, if this frigate can speak, it will definitely beg to return to the ocean again, to the paradise that belongs to it, somehow, Jiang Lin's eyes were a little moist, he secretly made up his mind that he must let this frigate return to the ocean, even if it is in other ways, it must be used to the fullest.

Henry stepped forward, looked at the boat, and said to Jiang Lin: "Mr. Jiang Lin, don't look at it is seriously corroded now, but if the rust is removed, it is also a very handsome young man." ”

"Can the ship's power system be repaired?"

This frigate was sold to civilians by Indonesia as scrap metal, Jiang Lin naturally knew in his heart that there was almost no possibility of repairing this frigate, but Jiang Lin still didn't give up, maybe there would be a miracle?

"When it was pulled here, the engine and the equipment on it were dismantled, and now it's almost an empty shelf, and the hull is badly deformed, and with my decades of experience in shipbuilding, there is absolutely no possibility of it being repaired."

Henry shook his head, if the frigate could still be repaired, he would have turned it into a cruise ship and sold it for a high price.

Nodding, Jiang Lin put away the indescribable sadness in his heart: "Then can you cut and rough this hull?" ”

"There's no problem with cutting and machining, the question is what this stuff can do."

Henry is a businessman, so everything is based on profits, you must know that the thickness of these special steels is at least three centimeters, because its thickness is large and the strength is high, and it is very difficult to cut, if the steel of this boat is used as raw materials, then no matter what is manufactured, there is no doubt that the manufacturing cost will increase, and Henry is just building ordinary civilian speedboats, and there is no need for three-centimeter thick steel at all, so these steels are a little chicken.

"If you're willing to cut it for me, then I can buy this boat at the original price, and then pay your corresponding processing fee."

Jiang Lin thought for a while, and then said to Henry, this frigate is worthless in Henry's eyes, but in Jiang Lin's eyes, this is a good treasure, so although Duke and Tiger don't know what they want to do, as long as these special steels can be processed, Jiang Lin can make the best use of these steels and give full play to the final value of these steels.

"Of course, if it's just low-level processing, I'm happy, and if it's high-difficulty processing, then I can only express regret."

Henry looked at Jiang Lin, tilted his head, and replied undeniably.

After that, the group returned to the shipbuilder, and then Jiang Lin used a speedboat to explain to Henry in detail how to process these special steels.

After Jiang Lin finished speaking, Henry tilted his head and thought for a long time, although the difficulty was a little more than he expected, but in order to sell this frigate, he still nodded and agreed.

Duke and Tiger listened to Jiang Lin's explanation to Henry, the two looked at each other, and finally suddenly realized that Jiang Lin was going to use special steel to modify the speedboat he bought, that is, to add a layer of armor to the speedboat.

Only then did the two understand why Jiang Lin purchased fifty Browning heavy machine guns, thinking about fifty speedboats and armor that can't even be penetrated by heavy machine guns, with fifty heavy machine guns, not to mention the world, at least they can dominate the Indian Ocean, right? Once these guys are armed to the Jiaolong Pirate Regiment, then will that Pirate Regiment be their opponent? This is simply invincible.

Up to now, the two of them were completely convinced of Jiang Lin's bold ideas, and at the same time, the two of them were also moved in their hearts, because no matter what Jiang Lin did, it was based on the safety of the members of the Jiaolong Pirate Group, and in order to strengthen the combat effectiveness of the Jiaolong Pirate Group, Jiang Lin even dared to take huge risks, challenge the conventions of the pirate world with great courage, and vigorously promote reforms.

In fact, Jiang Lin is not as great as they think, Jiang Lin has no way of knowing what Duke and Tiger think, as for the reforms he has implemented, and the purchase of so many weapons and materials, it is just that he thinks in his mind that the pirate group should be so powerful, and if he disagrees, he will do it, and even Jiang Lin still feels that this is not enough, because Jiang Lin's goal is not here......
