Chapter 467: Lance

On December 26th, it stands to reason that the festival is to be celebrated for a few days, and the people of the Douglas family are really very anxious, because Wan Qianyang's words bring them a message, that is, they can not only save their family and get through this difficult time, but also increase orders for them, as for whether they can become the largest shipbuilder, they are not too concerned.

This time, Douglasken brought the patriarch of their family to visit in person, so they also did a good job in showing the pomp and circumstance of the nobles, first of all, a few luxurious carriages, and then the guards were very neat and consistent. Of course, Jack still remembers Wan Qianyang's orders quite firmly, and no matter who he meets, he can't lose his dignity, so Jack is very generous, and he still graciously introduces guests from the Douglas family, because Wan Qiyang happens to be not in the castle, and is looking around to observe his manor, which is also a exercise.

When Wan Qiyang received a notification from his subordinates that a guest had arrived, he rode back to the castle.

After the introduction of 'Ken', the patriarch of the Douglas family and Wan Qiyang exchanged a few polite words, which can be regarded as acquaintance. Then Lance Douglas, the patriarch of the Douglas family, looked at Wan Qianyang, and Wan Qiyang also looked at each other.

"The patriarch came to the contemptible castle this time, presumably he has made a decision in his heart, you might as well get straight to the point, I especially like to go straight, on the problem of the problem, cooperation is a double profit model, even if the business is not human, it is still there! I don't know what you mean? "Wan Qianyang, as the master, of course, is the first to speak, and he is also entertaining this noble patriarch with a high standard, and he is also a marquis hereditary family, so the business is not ordinarily big, because of the support of the Chamber of Commerce, so they are usually very respected, but the main reason for the difficulties suffered by their family this time is because the business opponent is from the Netherlands, which is also a maritime power! The Chamber of Commerce is also powerless in this regard, and since the Douglas family has the interests of the Chamber of Commerce to fill some of the shortfalls, but like the decrease in orders and the hijacking of pirates, it is a huge amount of thousands of pounds at every turn, how can the Chamber of Commerce use all the interests of everyone to balance the losses of your family?

"I heard that Mr. Sniper is young and promising, and today I saw that he really has an outstanding demeanor! It's rude to bother Mr. just after Christmas, this time I made a special trip to visit Mr., mainly for the first two **** children to come and communicate with Mr., I first expressed an attitude, that is, Mr. can say that kind of words also make me feel very gratified, and even feel lucky. Because Mr. did not take this opportunity to suppress our family business, it also shows that Mr. Gentleman's noble character is not comparable to those who have fallen into the ground, in fact, Mr. still does not know, the shipbuilding family of other chambers of commerce has this intention, and wants to take the opportunity to acquire the shipyard that annexed the Douglas family. Although we are still in a state of confrontation that does not let go, it is true that we can't even afford to buy raw materials now. So this hurried over is to talk to Mr. about the last verbal agreement between you and Ken. Patriarch Douglas also felt that the man in front of him, who looked unusually young, was full of righteousness in his gestures, and had a kind of majesty of his own.

In fact, they don't understand that after cultivating internal strength, when they reach a certain stage, the temperament of the whole person will change greatly, and even after reaching the realm of being able to unite heaven and man, it is completely an unpredictable feeling, and when it is strong, it is strong without any sense of disobedience. So this Douglas patriarch Lance was completely conquered by Wan Qianyang's personal charm. In addition, now that he is focused on the mess of their family, there can be someone like Wan Qiyang who can still propose cooperation in the situation of their family, and that is the person who can really do business.

"Good! I like your openness, so let's talk about some of the details now, what is your funding gap, and if there are any unfinished projects, I will listen to your actual situation before making a decision on how to do it. Wan Qiyang is also here to see how to maximize the benefits.

"It's not a secret, because the family's own ship went to sea to trade was hijacked by pirates, and the ship was also destroyed, and two ships were lost at once, and then the results of the original order were also robbed by the shipyard on the Dutch side, there are no orders at present, and there are many workers in the shipyard who need to be appeased, this Christmas has not fully paid their salaries, and there are people in the major shipyards who want to poach the skilled workers on our side, and we usually treat these skilled workers well, and we have not accepted each other's conditions for the time being. At present, there are more than 4,000 pounds of funds that need to be disbursed, and we need to continue to buy raw materials, and if there are 30,000 pounds, our family's shipyard can operate normally. Even Douglas didn't know what Douglas was talking about, and he didn't expect the family to be on the verge of bankruptcy.

"So?" Wan Qiyang was thinking about some problems in time, he must make his own world's first steel steamer, but all this is starting from scratch, he can only make suggestions. For example, Wan Qiyang first smelted the steel, then forged the finished materials, assembled the steam engine, and then made the size of the new ship and installed the new engine. However, at this time, Wan Qiyang could only make a preliminary estimate of the time in his heart.

And Lance, the patriarch of Douglas, is quite nervous, this is basically related to the life and death of their family, you must know that a big family is dismembered, it is quite fast, like an insect being eaten by countless ants, it is simply a very terrifying result.

"Patriarch Lance, do you know how long it will take to build a ship of the largest model at the moment?" Wan Qiyang asked.

"Well, if it is the largest ship now, it can carry twenty guns on board, and it will take more than eight months when there are enough men. Of course, this time also fluctuates, and it is simpler not to install artillery. Patriarch Lance of Douglas also came up with an approximate time.

Wan Qiyang thought about these problems and felt that he should be able to make a few ships for his own use and be able to catch up with his own fleet before he left England. So he decided on the following approach and directly put forward his own requirements, which were requirements but not conditions, so Wan Qiyang had already decided to invest in the Douglas family shipyard.

"Patriarch Lance, how many shares can you give me if I can guarantee that your shipyard will quickly become the largest shipyard in the world in a year's time. I can provide the latest technology to change the power of the ship from human wind power to mechanical power, and I can also carry twice as much cargo as it is today. And the weapons equipped with completely exceed the attack ability of all the weapons now, as for the steel steamer in the near future, it will have to be after the scale of my steel mill is expanded! Think about it! Wan Qianyang's words simply shocked Douglas patriarch Lance, as if he was completely petrified, and he was digesting the meaning of Wan Qianyang's words for a long time, and he could become the world's largest shipyard in a year? Is this possible?
