195 Borrowing the chickens of the Spaniards to lay eggs

Nishi: "What do you think?" I think the Spaniard's proposal is very good. If we organize a fleet and deliver goods to Europa, in two years' time, we will be able to bring back at least millions of taels of silver, and it is likely that the ships will be full of silver. Shen Defu said.

"Many countries in Europa are plundering outside, and they are far richer than the Eastern Ying Kingdom, and we can even avoid Zheng Zhilong and develop with peace of mind." Shen Defu continued.

"Dad, if we organize a fleet, the firepower on our warships will not be comparable to those warships in Europa." Shen Yue said.

He knew that the battleships in Europe were completely different from the Ming Dynasty.

The warships of the Ming Dynasty, because they have always fought in the near sea, have not developed battleships, even if they have powerful battleships now, they are much worse than the Furence in the hands of Kent.

"There's a 2,000-material warship, isn't it about to be transformed? I have seen this ship, and the firepower will be stronger than that of the Flens! Shen Defu said.

Shen Yue knew that Shen Defu was talking about the ship that had been being renovated at the beginning.

This ship is nearly twice as large as the Flens, and if it is according to Shen Yue's plan, it can be equipped with eighty to one hundred guns, although at the beginning, Chu Qingqi and others calculated that it could only hold sixty guns.

Shen Yue made the ship's gun emplacements more dense, and made this a real battleship, except for a small amount of supplies and war materials, nothing else was carried, and a warship was arranged to follow as a supply ship to build a battleship dedicated to combat.

"Using this warship as the flagship and dispatching a few more thousand-material warships is enough." Shen Defu said, "I don't know what you kid thinks, the entire ship is covered with iron armor, and it is difficult to be sunk." ”

"Dad, this ship is ...... slower."

"The other warships are fast, as long as they are not surrounded by several times the number of warships, there is nothing to be done at all. If this ironclad ship is used as a meat shield, the other ships will hide on the side to attack...... "After all, Shen Defu has run on the sea and understands naval battles. "And there's a Frense! The goods transported on the ship, when they arrive in Europa, can be exchanged with the Spaniards for their warships! ”

"Where's the manpower?"

"Just raise money in Spain, and you can even buy black slaves from them, and black slaves can't be put in our Ming Dynasty and get to the Japanese country to open gold and silver mines." Shen Defu said.

When Shen Yue heard this idea, he immediately became interested.

Let a large number of blacks go to the country of Wa, and then breed there, how powerful can the little devils be in the future?

"Dad, I think this thing is reliable!" Shen Yue was extremely satisfied with his father's proposal. "It's just that you need to think about it in the long run, whether it's the Zheng family or the Wa country, it's not easy to get along."

"The Wa Kingdom is not a problem, and the real enemy is the Zheng family. They had a large number of men and a large number of warships. There is currently chaos in the country, and even the Zheng family is only cooperating with a general over there, and we can support other generals! "Shen Defu's insidiousness is far greater than Shen Yue's.

The father and son began to plot how to develop the strength of the Shen clan under the powerful power of the Zheng bandits.

As long as the Shen family's strength is strong enough, it will cut off the Zheng family's route to the Wa Kingdom in minutes.

"You agreed to our proposal?" Kent didn't expect that whether he wanted to buy a warship or lease it from Shen Yue, the other party didn't agree to it.

After Shen Defu came back, he had the mentality of trying it out, and he actually got a promise.

"Sir Kent, we can organize a fleet to go with you to Spain, but we don't have enough silver to stop the cargo!" Shen Yue was very greedy for the silver on the Kent Frens, as well as their guns. "A Flence can't escort safely, and the Shen No. 1 ironclad ship we are refitting, according to the number of Hongyi cannons we produce, it will take at least half a year to a year."

Kent and Thomas were both silent.

Shen Yue's idea of beating the silver on their ship!

At the same time, there are also the artillery that they brought over.

For such a long time, the other party has not moved, so that they have relaxed their vigilance, and now they have brought it up again.

Shen Defu didn't open his mouth, pitting these barbarian silvers was originally in their plan.

"Two, you also know that the number of artillery equipped on our warships is not large, and if we concentrate all the guns on our warships on the Shen No. 1, our ships will not have any combat capability. In order to save you, we have offended the most powerful pirate in the Ming Dynasty, and they are also pirates with the support of our imperial court! Shen Yue continued.

Organize your own fleet to go to Europe, although it is very profitable, but you can get it after two years.

"Our cannons can be sold to you at a low price!" Kent and Thomas made eye contact for a long time and decided to lower the price. "1,800 taels of silver per cannon."

"How about we get to Spain and sell our goods and then deliver them?" Shen Yue asked.

"Shen, we have expressed enough sincerity!" Thomaston.

Shen Yue is preparing empty gloves for the white wolf.

"We don't even have enough money to organize the goods, where will we get the money to buy your guns? All my money has bought ships! Shen Yue said, "At the same time, we plan to load enough goods on these warships and transport them to Spain, and all the silver sold will be used to buy warships and artillery." In addition to your silver, it is not uncommon for other things. ”

Kent's eyes widened when he heard Shen Yue's words.

"That's really how you planned?"

"Or else? In addition to that ironclad ship, we are going to send nine more thousand warships to transport goods! The Shen No. 1 is a real battleship and does not carry any cargo! "The speed of the ironclad ship of 2,000 materials is already relatively slow, and if it is loaded with goods, it can only become a target.

Shen Yue, as a traverser, naturally knew that the cargo ship and the warship must be separated.

In this way, the firepower can be more powerful.

The ships of the Ming Dynasty are all multi-purpose, and the ocean-going ships are armed ships for transporting goods.

"We all have your 30 24-pounder guns. But the money, can only wait until Europe to pay, the goods transported by our fleet, can pay you 10% of the escort fee, if you help contact the buyer, you can pay another 10% commission. Shen Yue knew that he couldn't bear the wolf.

From the Ming Dynasty to transport porcelain, tea, silk, etc. to Spain, the price is definitely more than ten times, and it is a good thing for him to give Kent and others some benefits.

After all, no one is familiar with Europe today.

"Really?"

"I will personally lead the Shen family's fleet with you!" Shen Defu opened his mouth and said, "You can rest assured of this. ”

"Daddy!" Shen Yue frowned, this was not in their plan.
