"The inertia and error correction ability of history are really powerful! Unexpectedly, the 'Nassau-class' battleship still appeared. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info However, the 'Nassau-class' battleships I designed are undoubtedly much more powerful than the 'Nassau-class' battleships of the German Navy in history! After coming out of Wilhelm II's office and returning to his room, Qin Tian lay on his bed and said a little speechlessly.

Under the decision of the wise and martial William II, the four battleships to be built by Qin Tian's shipyard in the future were named 'Nassau-class' battleships, the first ship 'Nassau', the second ship 'West***', the third ship 'Rhineland', and the fourth ship 'Posen'.

Of course, these four battleships will be used to pay off Qin Tian's debts to the imperial family. As for the next-class battleships that Qin Tian promised to donate to the navy, they could only be pushed back. One of the more powerful battleships of the next class was donated to the German Navy. In this case, it will undoubtedly make Qin Tian pay a greater cost. However, by that time, Qin Tian's net worth will be even more expensive. With such a little money, Qin Tian wouldn't care about it at all.

After Christmas, Qin Tian became busy. Wilhelm II sent someone to officially transfer the Royal Shipyard to Qin Tian, and when Qin Tian signed his name on the transfer document, it meant that he became the owner of the shipyard. In addition, the loan of 120 million marks was also transferred to Qin Tian's account. However, Wilhelm II made strict demands that the money must be used for the expansion of the shipyard and was strictly forbidden to be used for other purposes. Of course, Qin Tian would not have any objections to this.

In terms of the management of the shipyard, Wilhelm II asked Qin Tian to go to Essen? Feng? Jona Lite. Essen? Feng? Jonah Lette recommended a candidate for Qin Tian, and that was Brute. He is forty-two years old and was originally the deputy director of the Germania shipyard. However, because of some things, I left my job. But his competence in managing shipyards cannot be denied.

Qin Tian in Essen? Feng? Jonalet was introduced to meet with Brut and then decided to hire Brut as the director of the German shipyard under his name. What made Qin Tian happy was that Essen? Feng? Jonalet did not leave the Germania shipyard alone, but also brought with him a number of managerial and technical backbones. This undoubtedly saved Qin Tian a lot of things.

Between the losses of the Royal Shipyard and Repair Yard year after year, he will not keep any of the original management of the factory. Originally, I was still having a headache on how to make up for these loopholes, but the emergence of Brut undoubtedly solved these problems.

When changing ownership, Qin Tian also changed the name of the Royal Shipyard to Deutsche Shipyard. Same name as Deutsche Welfare Lottery. In the future, Qin Tian will open more enterprises, such as Deutsche Automobile Factory, Deutsche Aircraft Factory, etc., to form an industrial group in the name of Germany.

Just after New Year's Day, Qin Tian and Brut boarded the train to Danzig. This time I went to Danzig, and it was the Royal Shipyard that had been renamed the Deutsche Shipyard to take over in full.

"Your Highness, I have carefully studied your design drawings for the 'Nassau-class' battleship. I have to admit that this is an epoch-making design. However, it will be very difficult for the new technologies adopted to become a reality. Brut was a little worried.

On the 'Nassau-class' battleships designed by Qin Tian, the deployment of triple main guns, oil-fired boilers and steam turbines, as well as all-heavy artillery, were all new technologies. Even for the big shipyards, it's not easy to get these technologies up and running right away. Not to mention that the foundation of the German shipyard is still a medium-sized shipyard, and even after expansion, its strength is still limited.

Qin Tian nodded: "I know, but we still have enough time." The expansion of the shipyard will begin immediately. In this way, by the second half of the year, construction can begin. The lack of technical prowess, it doesn't matter, we can slow down the pace of construction, enter service before 1908, and that's it. If you need the technology, you can buy it immediately or develop it yourself. In terms of talents, you can dig the corners of major shipyards. As long as there are people with real talent and real learning, we can hire them with a high salary. ”

"Your Highness, if this happens, I'm afraid it will further offend other shipyards!" Brut frowned.

"Don't worry, soon they won't have the energy to target us. And the navy, too, will recognize us. When the time comes, we will get a steady stream of orders from the Navy, and they will only have to watch. Qin Tian smiled.

He believed that as long as their 'Nassau-class' battleships could succeed. Well, a lot of people will be slapped in the face. Especially those guys from the Technical Committee of the Navy. And the Navy will naturally prefer to place orders with their shipyards. Other shipyards, in order to be able to get orders, naturally have to ask for them.

"Yes, Your Highness." Brut nodded. Since Qin Tian had already made a decision, he only had to follow it.

The Royal Friedrichyard is located on the left bank of the Vistula River, opposite the shipyard. Both shipyards have a history of more than 100 years, originally both were Prussian royal properties, and later resold by Shuoxiao shipyards, and after two major expansions, the Friedrich shipyard has also undergone two expansions, but its business philosophy has obviously not kept up with the historical development trend, and it is still only a medium-sized shipyard with more than 300 workers.

After Qin Tian and Brut arrived here, they immediately called a meeting of the shipyard's managers. Those mediocre management management have almost been purged, leaving only a few really capable people. As for the rank-and-file workers, only a very small number of were fired. The rest of the people are still retained, which also makes these workers breathe a sigh of relief. After the shipyard was transferred, they feared losing their jobs. Fortunately, the new owner of the shipyard, Prince Oscar of the German Empire, does not seem to be a vicious person.

After staying in the shipyard for two days and handing over the responsibility for the future development of the shipyard to Brut, Qin Tian left the shipyard and returned to Berlin. He had other things to do.

"Although, now the German shipyard is still a gold-swallowing beast. But soon, all of Europe will be shocked. The fate of the German Reich may be changed as a result. ”

On the return train, Qin Tian thought secretly. The shipyard will soon begin to build more new battleships and even aircraft carriers and submarines for the German Navy, turning the tide of the war for Germany.
