Chapter 232: The Virtuous Wife
256 meters hull length. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
A wide, slender and modern hull.
The rear part of the hull is a towering bridge building with a height of tens of meters.
One "Inquisitor"-class Ellie was enough to catch the eye of the Azure Star, and on this day, two almost identical over-era battleships appeared on the harbor of the European Imperial Palace.
The reason why it is said is almost exactly the same.
This is because the inhabitation of the Caillo Duilio is not yet complete, as it was in the first stage of the past.
After returning to the harbor, Marina and Saratoga were sent to the dockyard to undergo detailed renovations, leaving only another mysterious rumor about the superbattleship in the quiet harbor.
It's not Koji's concern about the rumors.
I think that the European Emperor's Mansion will help him clean up the mess and control the rumors.
With the official start of the renovation project of Saratoga and Marina, the workload of Lord Admiral has increased by several levels at once, and Koji is so busy that he can't wait to have more brains and a few more hands.
Lexington can't help Koji in this regard.
On the contrary, because of her personal experience, the little girl took her sister's teaching work.
Koji was mainly responsible for negotiating with the European Imperial Mansion Ship Lady to arrange Saratoga's overhaul plan for the next few months.
The main person in charge of the project is Saratoga himself, and Saratoga is the only one who knows the situation best, except for Koji, who is the planner of this project.
And it is she who accepts the transformation, whether it is Koji or Saratoga is not at ease to put hope in others, Saratoga must be clear about every step of the transformation in the next few months.
In addition to Saratoga, others need intensive training.
At the very least, Koji had to let them know what kind of change they wanted Saratoga to make.
This was relatively easy, as the Imperial Mansion was basically only responsible for making changes to the Saratoga hull.
To put it simply, it is to build an aircraft carrier target ship with a large displacement, and when it comes to the internal details, Koji is to explain to them, and there are not necessarily a few people who can understand why people in the future world think so much.
In their understanding, isn't an aircraft carrier just a flatbed ship that hollows out the inside of the hull to make huge space for a large number of carrier-based aircraft?
What geometry with multiple runway decks, fighter lifts with different positions and purposes, and what catapult systems, many of Saratoga's functions are completely unnecessary in their opinion.
Supercarrier with a displacement of more than 100,000 tons.
You can imagine how big the Saratoga flight deck will be when it is built.
Such a large flight deck used for take-off, carrier-based aircraft can allow more than ten aircraft to operate at the same time.
However, if you want to see this kind of supercarrier that is almost unprecedented, it will take a long time for both Ouhuangfu and Koji.
Ellie took her sister Marina to complete her perch.
Saratoga was busy gathering men to disassemble his ship's hull.
The little devil temporarily served as the captain of the schoolboy team, and brought the thunder and lightning to familiarize himself with the blue sea mist fleet.
For a while, Koji was suddenly left alone with Lexington, and when the busy and dizzy Admiral suddenly came back to his senses, he saw the gentle Hangma who was silently accompanying him.
In the makeshift office, it was not the Admiral of the Blue Sea Mist Fleet who sat at his desk to deal with all kinds of papers, but Lexington.
Those who don't know still think that Lexington, who has an outstanding temperament, is the female admiral of the Blue Sea Mist fleet.
It looks like there's a sense of déjà vu in Lexington.
Lexington noticed the Admiral, who was stretching.
The thoughtful secretary ship quickly reacted that Koji was temporarily over.
"Admiral, here's a document I think you should take a look at, it's about the exchange of resources between commanders." Stepping on the seductive kitten steps, the secretary ship arrived.
A document was presented to Koji.
"Exchange resources?"
Koji seems to remember that various cores are also a kind of resource.
Sure enough, what Lexington wanted him to see was not the exchange of conventional incendiary steel and aluminum resources, but the core and blueprints that were crucial to the Blue Sea Mist Fleet.
Seeing this document, Koji suddenly remembered, it seemed that he had arranged for everyone else to update their equipment, and Lexington, who was also the secretary ship and the "only" aircraft carrier of the Blue Sea Mist Fleet, still had nothing.
Lexington still uses the previous carrier-based aircraft model.
It is undeniable that a dreadnought dive bomber or something like the BTD is already a relatively good carrier-based aircraft.
But in the Admiral's opinion, these old antiques that only have collections in historical museums really don't give him much confidence, and it's incredible that these small planes with wooden planks and iron sheets can fly.
"The cost of the renovation of Gaga and Zhenna is fully borne by the European Imperial Palace, and in addition to the follow-up investment in them, the fleet now has 53,000 units of fuel, 58,000 ammunition, 54,000 steel, and 31,000 bauxite."
"It can be said that there is not much shortage of the fleet in terms of conventional resources for the time being, and in the rare items, ......"
Core.
Fantasy drawings.
Quick fix solution.
Or even a vow ring.
These are all rare props, which may not be able to be bought with money.
The Vow Ring doesn't have to think too much about it for the time being, and the Quick Repair Liquid must not be taken lightly, and everyone knows that its role is crucial.
The document Lexington submitted about the quick fix fluid was marked by the secretary ship in the hope of attracting the attention of the Admiral, but the advanced carrier-based aircraft marked at the end was forgotten by her.
"Resources for resources, I can still understand ......"
"They are all admirals, how can they have so many rare items that can be exchanged for them?"
It's been half a year since he thought about it, and the quick repair liquid used by the Blue Sea Mist Fleet was either a gift from a senior like Shalena.
The Azure Sea Mist Fleet's existing inventory of quick-fix fluids ...... Close to zero!
Lord Admiral's question made Lexington smile.
"That's because this is nominally a private act between the commanders, but there is the European Imperial Mansion behind it, and this is an activity that is officially allowed and tacitly acquiesced." Lexington said.
"Oh~"
It's no wonder.
It turned out that there was an official background in it.
The Federation needs to reclaim resources from the Admirals, and it seems that so does the Imperial Palace.
"It's ...... Lexington the price list you surveyed? It's so expensive! Turning the next page, the Admiral was taken aback.
Tens of thousands of units and tens of thousands of units of resource inventory, and the transformation of his subordinate ships is tens of millions of units of resource investment, to say that Qian Haoer is definitely well-deserved among the commanders in the same period.
But to say that there is no money......
The Admiral is definitely at the bottom of the ranks.
"In the case of Zhennai and Gaga, I cheated the European Emperor's Mansion too ruthlessly, and I didn't dare to ask for too many resources, don't look at the tens of thousands of resources we have, and it really doesn't consume much."
A regular battleship needs only a few hundred fuel and ammunition resources for a full replenishment.
And Ellie needs to consume thousands of units to replenish the reserves, and the consumption on weekdays is also a lot, not to mention that now the Azure Sea Mist Fleet has another modern strategic cruiser of the Inquisitor class.
To put it bluntly: Koji has no money to exchange rare props with others.
"Yu has considered this issue just now, and Yu does not recommend that the Admiral exchange regular resources for ...... Isn't there still a lot of core that we exchanged for resources last time? ”
"Core?"
Koji was moved.
It's not because I thought of a way to do it.
"To talk about the core of what we have left...... That's for Lexington. ”
The core of the battleship has been consumed by the Ellie sisters, and the renovation of Saratoga has been borne by the European Imperial Palace, and the destroyer side is even more seriously lacking after joining the four small now.
The only thing in stock is the core of the aircraft carrier.
But as Koji said, these cores were prepared for Lexington from the beginning.
Moreover, the core of the aircraft carrier is the rarest, and the market value has been high, and the actual value is not easy to collect.
"But Yu doesn't need it now, does it......"
A sweet smile appeared on the delicate little face of the secretary ship, and the white teeth between the seductive cherry lips loomed with a unique beauty.
"The Admiral's intentions are clear, but now that Gaga has just begun to transform the effect is underestimated, Yu's transformation can be relatively delayed, and it is better to replace some more useful ones than to keep the backlog of these aircraft carrier cores in your hands."
"But ......"
Koji is still very reluctant to make this choice.
It's not just a value trade-off, but it's more that Lord Admiral doesn't have no other means to get the quick repair solution.
Relying on the official behemoth of the European Emperor's Mansion behind him, Koji has not been able to take others for nothing, he can choose to exchange them directly with fantasy drawings, at most, he works harder and works more overtime.
This point of dedication is no problem at all in Koji's opinion.
"Hmph~"
Lexington's eyes widened.
Apparently, this clever little mother of the aircraft carrier already understands what Koji wants to say.
"But Yu also knows that from your point of view, Lord Admiral, what you don't want to see is the endless support of others, which will eventually reduce your appraisal value, Lord Admiral."
"And ......"
"Lord Admiral, your energy should be focused on something more important."
"If it weren't for your insistence, I would have thought that I would have wanted you to accept the investment of the European Imperial Mansion and make every effort to develop the strength of the fleet."
"......" Koji smiled bitterly.
Take someone else's for nothing, and then return it back when you become stronger?
This kind of thinking makes sense and works smoothly, but in the past, Koji knew best that this kind of unfinished human debt was troublesome, and it was rare to start over, and he subconsciously didn't want to owe too much to others.
"It's just the core, Lord Admiral can buy it again or simply collect it yourself." Lexington said.
"It's easy for you to say, I can see that this time the European Imperial Mansion promised to give Jiajia transformation because it was not a one-time investment to dare to agree to fully bear the consumption, you see that this officially-supported trading activity has not seen anyone shoot the core of the aircraft carrier."
"But a lot of people have repair fluids......
The secretary smiled shrewdly and with a little smugness.
Scarcity is expensive, and at the same time, many people sold the repair liquid, which invisibly caused the value to depreciate, and Lexington also saw this and proposed Koji to participate in this event.
Is......
O shrewd and virtuous wife!
