Chapter 580: The Tin Boat

Zhang Zhongjun also knew that he had taken it for granted, but he still didn't give up: "What about the hull that is laid outside? Inlaid with a layer of iron sheet, it is like a person wearing armor, whether it is anti-collision or fireproof, the safety will be greatly improved." If it weren't for the inevitable sinking, I would love to get an all-iron battleship!"

"It should be possible, but it is better to put an iron shell on the whole ship, and the small one is not as good as replacing the ribs of the ship with iron ribs and planks, which must be much harder than a pure wood ship. But there is a problem, that is, iron will rust, pure wood ships, well-maintained can be used for dozens or hundreds of years, with iron, I am afraid that it will be useless in a few years. Also, if you add iron, the price can be several times more expensive than the current ship price!" said Xiao Li, the leader hesitated, no wonder he was so sure, because iron is more expensive than wood.

Zhang Zhongjun's eyes lit up: "Your proposal is very good, an iron-hulled wooden ship, or an iron-hulled wooden ship, haha, you have to try it, whether it is feasible or not, you have to try it then, and you have to try it if the price is doubled! Although it is a waste to break down in a few years, as long as the combat strength and defense are strong within a few years!"

As for the all-iron battleship, everyone, including Zhang Zhongjun, didn't think about it, because they all thought it would sink. Now I don't think about the problem of sinking, just because whether it is put on iron sheet or replaced with iron ribs, there is more wood than iron, and it is normal to not sink.

"My lord, if you put on an iron sheet or put on an iron rib, the defense of the battleship is indeed much stronger, but the degree will be slowed down, because it is heavy! If it is broken in a few years, it can be described as a waste of rank, do we need to waste this money? That is, the combat effectiveness of our warship is very strong. Peng Quanwu asked cautiously.

Seeing that everyone's eyes were looking at them, there was a look of disapproval in their eyes, obviously they felt that it was a waste of money to put a layer of iron on the battleship or install iron ribs.

"You guys, take a long-term view!" Zhang Zhongjun sighed helplessly and said: "You don't want to think about it, once we transport 3o thousand pieces of timber to Magong Town, we can earn 4oo thousand taels of silver at a time, 4oo thousand taels of silver! What a huge line of interests!"

"In the face of such a huge line of interests, the government and gangs, with my identity and face, giving money to a molecule should be able to solve the problem, but some private forces are ready to move!"

"At that time, the Wenlong River will become our lifeline and money line, without the strength on the water to protect this line, how can we make money?

"So if we want to prevent people from taking away the money we earned, we must have the strength to protect this money, and a flexible and combat-effective warship like this is an important weapon to maintain the safety of this route on the Wenlong River. ”

"Those enemies who peep at us naturally want to do everything possible to destroy our warship, and the best way to get rid of a battleship is to ram, fire, and dig holes in the bottom of the ship, so I said to put a layer of iron on the battleship, so that the above three methods of the most damage are not so easy to implement. ”

"Don't care about this money, just think about it, as long as we hold this waterway, the money is almost millions every year! Compared to that, what is the money to buy a battleship and put armor on a battleship?

Hearing Zhang Zhongjun's words, everyone came to their senses, yes, the safety of this waterway is related to the business of millions of taels of silver, how can such a big business not be peeped into? And if someone peeps, it is necessary to protect the safety of this waterway, and to protect the safety of the waterway, it is natural that the attack and defense of one's own warships are as strong as possible.

Compared with the safety of the entire waterway and smooth business, it is not a big deal to put armor on the battleship, and even if a batch of warships are changed every few years, as long as the waterway is smooth and safe, it is not a big deal!

After understanding this, everyone admired it for a while, but everyone was more in reverence, because this kind of thing, adults can just say it, and they don't need to pay attention to the opinions of their own people at all. But the adults clearly analyzed the reasons why this was done and what kind of results it would bring.

Except for Zhang Zhongjun, everyone present had told the boss, and whose boss would explain to his subordinates so carefully? Which boss would have made his subordinates understand why he had done this and what would happen after doing this?

No one is an idiot, of course they know that after Zhang Zhongjun explained in such detail, he will see the future more clearly, and if he works harder in this, he will definitely be more brilliant and easier to be promoted than those ignorant others.

Peng Quanwu, two head hunters, and two patrolmen are secretly happy, it seems that they have followed a good boss. And the leader of Xiao Li was different.

Seeing Xiao Li's entangled expression, Zhang Zhongjun's mind turned to think of something, beckoned him to the side and whispered, "Are you worried about Qiu Wenping?"

Xiao Li's leader's face changed, and he finally gritted his teeth and nodded: "Yes, my lord, Boss Qiu controls the shipping of this section of the waterway from the Nanlin River to the Huangwu Forest Farm, and the little one is afraid that Boss Qiu will make trouble after knowing the interests here." ”

Zhang Zhongjun smiled disdainfully: "He dares to make trouble?

"But my lord, Boss Qiu is in control of our Nanlin Town, well, it should be in control of our water and forest area, relying on the diversion of the Wenlong River to eat, we want to release the row, but he is indispensable! And with Boss Qiu's greed, he will definitely account for a large part of the interests this time!"

The leader of Xiao Li said eagerly: "Adult, it's not that the little one says bad things about his own boss, the little one is also an old man who has worked for Boss Qiu for several years, where do you not know his character, he buys wood, and will lower the price to 1oo Wen a piece, and sells it in Huangwu Forest Farm, but he lets the people of Huangwu Forest Farm offer a price, and he doesn't dare to bargain at all, it is completely a cowardly commodity in the nest!"

"What's more excessive is that our subordinates, usually don't care, let us beg for food, we are not allowed to bring our own private goods when we put the row, and the money given is only one or two silver for a row, which seems to be a lot, but we spend our own money on the return trip, and we work hard all the way, and the amount we get is only a few hundred yuan. When Xiao Li said this, he had a deep grudge.
