Chapter Forty-Six: Amazing Sales
As he expected, most crew members wouldn't mind taking the opportunity to recertify their license with public subsidies. The elite license exam costs much less than the flagship level, and 10 star coins can account for a large proportion.
In the end, the number of people counted by Dorotai and the captains was 300, accounting for more than seventy percent of the total number of crew members.
Fortunately, he can get the help of the bank to handle the accounts in the port area, Pan Wen can simply enter the list and transfer amount and add an employment contract to confirm, and the bank will help check the person's name from his employment contract and confirm the account and other information, which will not cause the embarrassment of transferring the wrong account. This saved Pan Wen a lot of trouble, and it only took more than two hours to send the subsidies to all the crew members who came up, and by the way, the bonuses of the assistants were also paid.
After completing this payment, Pan Wen also gave Dorotai a big vacation before going to the next station, and now that there are three security sisters, Dorotai's sense of existence is getting weaker and weaker.
First mate Dorotai, Pan Wen has never thought about how to arrange it. His bodyguard level is about the same as Elsa's, and it is easy to command on the employer's side, but as the first mate, he is somewhat weaker, although he is familiar with the business, but the impact of superpower resonance on the whole ship is still seven or eight streets away from the real full-time first mate. Thinking about it, Dorotai's contract is only about to expire in just over four months, and it's time to think about his way out.
Pan Wen once thought about changing to a professional first officer, and there is an acting captain's subsidiary license under the management of the first officer's exclusive license crew, the effect is to consume his own energy to maintain the captain's starship mastery and its subsidiary license effect proportionally, and non-boss level experts can maintain up to 50% effect, which can greatly improve the safety of the flagship. But think about it, Dorotai's abilities are almost all focused on individual combat, and the mental level is not high, except for the crew management master license, which is a bit rude to the elite level, and giving him more time is very likely to raise the subsidiary license.
Looking at the figure of Dorotai looking for an unmanned taxi, Pan Wen didn't say much, hoping that he could figure it out for himself.
Leaving the port, the next stop is the previously promising missile patrol ship Rodcons-class.
Players are spurring pirates to increase their strength, and missile patrol ships will not be the first choice as an unconventional ship, but it may be possible to delay the second-hand ships hoarded in the port for a while to sell out. So Pan Wen decided to take it down first when the funds were obviously tight.
Coincidentally, when he arrived with his assistants, he found out that the seller had actually seen it!
"Oops! Master Pan wants to die! The blonde woman in the low-cut red backless gown pounced on him like a dog to a bone.
It's a pity that she didn't pounce on Pan Wen in the end, and was blocked by Elsa.
Elsa tapped her armband to make the other party understand the identity of her security before saying, "I'm sorry, I need to make sure it's safe." ”
This woman was the seller's representative when he bought the Hammer at that time, and Pan Wen knew that there was a very deterrent pirate behind her, so he still helped her out of the siege before she was searched: "Elsa, forget it." ”
Elsa nodded slightly and stepped aside, not saying more. There's no need to be embarrassed when a security team doesn't spend a year or two with their employer, and it's hard to tell how safe they are.
As soon as Elsa stepped back, the blonde stuck to him and naturally hugged his arm: "It's surprising that Lord Pan would be interested in a missile ship, people thought that this ship would have to stay in the dock for a few years." ”
"Just wish there were more tactical options, take me to see the ship."
The dock opened, and the situation inside made Pan Wen raise his eyebrows, there were actually six patrol ships inside!
The pirates behind the woman are really capable.
The target ship has gone through the preliminary inspection of the assistants, and judging from the use of the Heavy Hammer in front, the seller's boss really pays attention to the quality of the goods to be sold.
"Master Pan really still pays attention to efficiency." No one dislikes the cheerful buyers, and in the eyes of the blonde girl, if everyone can be as decisive as Pan Wen, then her work can be very leisurely.
Taking the opportunity of the woman's conversation, Pan Wen took the opportunity to ask a question: "Your family seems to like collecting ships, if I want to buy a heavy frigate, I don't know if there is any stock?" ”
A heavy frigate means at least fifteen thousand star coins in business, and when she heard this, the blonde woman immediately became energetic.
"Frigates, frigates have been selling very well lately, and the last one in stock was paid the day before yesterday. If you don't mind replacing the old ships, I have two more ships to replace, and I can help you ask. ”
The ships in the free trade are all second-hand ships, but some are a little older, he knows that the world is data, and the old ships do not mean that they are not easy to use, but some of the performance will be a little out of step with the times. So as long as the price is right, there is not much difference between the old and the old.
"I don't know what model it is?"
"Both are Night-class."
"Night-level......" his tone was a little disappointed.
Sanitation No. 1 was modified from the Dark Night class, and Pan Wen also had the basic information of the ships used by nearby forces in his hands, so of course he knew what it was.
Even in the space age, technology is still evolving, and the Night-class, a durable warship that has grown with Segeis, is a bit old. The standard weight of the Night class is 370,000 tons, which is better than the Cam X-VI, to which the Heavy Hammer belongs. 1 main gun and 10 secondary guns for the Night class, 2 main guns and 12 secondary guns for the Cam X-VI; The standard durability and shield protection of the night level are 8500 and 4000, respectively, and the Cam X-VI is 9500 and 5000. The foundation is so bad, not to mention that the electronic equipment, engines, etc. have a generation difference with the new variety, the only thing that is better than the Cam X-VI in the Night class is that its hangar capacity is 15% larger, but the hangar does not have a suitable fighter or sub-ship, that is, it is an ornament.
Thinking back to the situation of the night level, Pan Wen shook his head: "The old-fashioned hangar doors and electronic equipment of the night level are very difficult. ”
As mentioned earlier, the hangar of modern frigates can be used to release fighters in the isolation area while ensuring that their own electronic stealth effect is not reduced, and the night class, a century-old ship type, does not have it, and the entire hangar structure of such a large ship is enough to buy a decommissioned corvette, so there is no need to consider whether there is a modification.
"Woohoo! People know that the night class is too difficult to sell. ”
The blonde woman's coquettishness may have a certain lethality to some people, but it does not affect Pan Wen's judgment in the slightest. The Night Class may only cost about half of the Cam X-VI, but it is really a bit outdated, and Pan Wen is not happy to invest thousands of Star Coins a year to supply and maintain this kind of ship, and the only way out is to disassemble it and sell parts and convert the rest into an armed merchant ship.
Seeing that the little tricks were useless, the blonde woman was still unwilling to give up the customer in front of her, and said, "Master Pan, wait a minute, I'll ask my family if there is anything else you want to change." ”
Pan Wen nodded.
The blonde girl went to the side and talked to her boss on the phone for about ten minutes, spending most of the time in silence, as if her boss was thinking about something important, and in the end, she brought a surprise to Pan Wen.
"Lord Pan, my lord is willing to sell a baby, Type 00863E, a light cruiser!" Seeing the obvious surprised expression on Pan Wen's face, the blonde continued a little proudly, "The price can be discussed after you have seen the condition of the ship, it will be parked at Dock 5 in the Ninth Port District now." ”
00863E, similar to Cam X-VI and Wright AD03B, are named with strong manufacturer characteristics.
To Pan Wen's surprise, someone would take out a cruiser to sell!
Cruisers, similar to the positioning of ancient cruisers, can conduct continuous operations without docking in port for a long time, for an interstellar pirate, this ability is simply tailored for them who cannot dock in a normal port, plus the unique strengths of some cruisers, as long as it is on the level of a cruiser, it can be regarded as a treasure.
Of course, Pan Wen couldn't resist the temptation to see and negotiate again, so he called Scardragon directly on the way and asked him to borrow a few appraisers. He and Scarsaurus have a cooperation agreement to sell loot, and Scardragon didn't even ask what he was borrowing it for.
Dock No. 5 in the 9th port area.
The single-digit docks in each port area are much larger, and standing on the top maintenance aisle and watching the huge war machines below take up only two-thirds of the length of the dock, I have mixed feelings - I am really just a "little" pirate.
00863E, length 480 meters, maximum width 105 meters, maximum height 95 meters, standard weight 750,000 tons. Double-decker hangars, each floor can park six patrol ships under 18,000 tons or other combination types. The 5 floors of the self-sustaining nutrition area have a total of 50,000 square meters, which can be used as a part of the air circulation system food system. The weapon system consists of two full-size main guns, four particle secondary cannons, and fourteen beam secondary cannons.
It can be seen that in terms of firepower, it is not much better than the Cam X-VI, because the Cam X-VI is a heavy frigate developed to replace the work of the cruiser.
However, the difference between them is by no means small, after the large increase in the size of the cruiser, the proportion of space required by personnel is correspondingly reduced, and there is more continuous space for the configuration of hangars, and the original design of the hangar is to load patrol ships rather than fighters.
At the same time, in order to accommodate the food, drink and Lazar needs of hundreds of non-staff personnel produced by more than a dozen patrol ships, the cruiser is also equipped with a self-sustaining nutrition area, which is what the ancients called an artificial biosphere. The self-sustaining trophic zone can be used in two ways, one is to incorporate the air circulation system and provide some fruit output, and the other is to provide fresh vegetarian food and meat for grazing, and the fertilizer produced by the self-sustaining trophic zone and the ship's sewage treatment is theoretically sustainable in terms of energy as well.
In order to achieve the purpose of being away all year round, cruisers have another unspecified point - their energy mix is very different from that of conventional ships.
In the early years, when human beings first entered space, they used fuel engines, and later they were nuclear engines, and when energy weapons became more and more powerful and energy consumption was getting higher and higher, the smooth nuclear transformation reaction could no longer provide enough energy in time, so quantum engines came to the stage, and most of the existing non-civilian ships were almost all using quantum engines - except for cruisers and some kind of existence. The cruiser uses a composite energy supply method, and there are three types of energy in total, one is a fusion reactor for conventional energy, the second is a cold fusion fuel cell for auxiliary reactors, and the third is a quantum energy engine when the system is fully open. This complex energy system reduces the cruiser's need for fuel to a very low level, and some Odd Species even have their own factories to make their own quantum fuel rods.
Cruiser, I want it so much...... But the money in my pocket seems to be a little less.
