Li Guming's surrender made Sing Tao suddenly controlled by Homo sapiens.

Although Homo sapiens has not yet formally established a management system, Luzon, Siam, Honsavady, and Ceylon have officially started the merger process.

It is expected that on June 15, the official announcement of the official announcement of Homo sapiens will be made.

This marks that the first giant enterprise in the history of human civilization will be born on the earth.

But this kind of thing has only attracted the attention of many major powers and regional tyrants, and ordinary people and private enterprises are still busy with their own small circles.

For example, the world's major shipping companies at this time.

In particular, world-class shipping companies in Asia, such as Evergreen International, COSCO Group, China Shipping Group, Oriental Sea Emperor, Hanjin Shipping, Mitsui Shipping, Kawasaki Kisen, etc.

These days, they meet almost every day to discuss the Strait of Malacca, the Lombok Strait, the Sunda Strait, the Kra Canal, and the Don Ong Canal.

As an insider, the New Luzon Shipping Group was already sailing on the Kra Canal and the Donon Canal in transport ships at this time.

With security in mind.

Many shipping companies are suspicious of the Kra Canal, but they have no concerns about the Dangweng Canal, which can only pass 30,000 tons of ships at present.

In addition, in terms of geographical location, the Dang Weng Canal should actually be an inland canal between Siam and Honsavady, and a large part of the navigable ships are inland river vessels from the two places.

Therefore, the Kra Canal has become a shortcut that many shipping companies have to consider.

The first shipping company to eat crabs was Mitsui Shipping.

Mitsui Toshige, the spokesman of the Mitsui chaebol, personally sent a statement, asking the shipping company to let the oil tanker go to the Kra Canal to test the water as soon as possible, anyway, the people of Toei are not afraid of nuclear radiation.

Under the orders of the head office, a 200,000-ton oil tanker Kirishima slowly approached the west port of the Kra Canal.

The captain of the Kirishima Mishima Aoran, is also up and down in his heart.

"Captain, the canal management company has sent a navigator." Second mate Otake Hirota shouted.

"Go over and bring them up."

"Hey."

Twenty minutes later.

Two navigators boarded the tanker and came to the cockpit.

"Which one is Captain Mishima?"

Hearing the Japanese accent in Tokyo, Mishima Aoran was very surprised, but he still quickly replied: "The contemptible Mishima Aoran is the captain of the Kirishima. ”

"Hello! I'm the navigator Meng Lin, and here is the list of charges. The navigator Meng Lin said as he handed over the list of charges.

Mishima Qinglan hurriedly took it, there were English, Chinese, Japanese content on it, the Kra Canal single charge is calculated according to the displacement of the ship, 40,000 gold yuan per 10,000 tons, less than 10,000 tons according to 10,000 tons.

The full load of the Kirishima was 211,000 tons, and the total cost was 840,000 gold won.

Regarding this charge, Mishima Qinglan said that it was acceptable, which was only 84,000 yuan for the American knife.

If the detour through the Strait of Malacca will increase the range by 1,200 kilometers and the transportation cost will increase by 120,000 US dollars, and the detour through the Sunda Strait will add 4,000 kilometers and 400,000 US dollars.

But Mishima Qinglan saw the clause on the list of charges that it was limited to using gold yuan to pay, and asked with some embarrassment: "Uh...... I don't have gold dollars here, can I use a knife or euros? ”

"Don't worry, you can sign the payment form on behalf of Mitsui Shipping, and Mitsui Shipping will pay our company gold yuan at that time, if you feel that you can't make a decision, you can use a satellite phone to connect with your company's people." Meng Lin waved his hand.

Mishima Qinglan was stunned for a moment, and then nodded: "I understand." ”

As for whether Mitsui Shipping will default on its debts afterwards, Homo sapiens is not afraid of others defaulting on its debts, and no one can rely on Homo sapiens' accounts.

After a while, Mishima Qinglan finished communicating with the head office, and he signed the payment form.

Meng Lin put away the payment slip: "Okay, you lift the anchor and prepare to enter the canal." ”

Another navigator picked up the walkie-talkie and communicated with the management tower at the west entrance of the canal.

The length of the Kra Canal is 100 km, and the channel is divided into two sections.

At this time, the north channel that the Kirishima entered was actually separated by a column and barbed wire fence in the middle, and the river channel was one.

With a depth of 35 meters and a width of 200 meters, even a 300,000-ton ship can easily pass through the channel of this class.

Mishima Qinglan saw that on the embankments on both sides, there were many staff members installing navigation beacons.

The Kirishima, which had a speed of 12 knots, passed through the West Exit Loop in two hours, at which point they entered the Sunrise Passage.

The so-called Sunrise Passage is actually an 8.4-kilometer-long nuclear crater area, and the channel here is not divided into two routes, north and south, but a direct one.

The width of the river here is between 700~900 meters, and the water depth in the middle is 100~120 meters.

As the first foreign ship to visit Sunrise Lake, Mishima Aoran saw a very shocking picture.

Within a radius of 10 kilometers, all the trees were destroyed, and only a small number of charred stumps remained, especially in the area near Sunrise Lake, where large areas of vitreous appeared on the ground, shining in the sun.

Grunt! Mishima Qinglan swallowed her throat involuntarily: "Navigator Meng, is there really no problem here?" ”

Meng Lin took out the Geiger detector and pointed to the value on it: "Don't worry!" Radiation levels here are much safer than those in Fukushima, 17% higher than in normal waters, and will return to normal levels in a few months. ”

"Hehe......" Mishima Qinglan laughed dryly.

Another navigator reminded: "Be careful to avoid and don't go over the buoy in the middle, there is a container ship approaching ahead." ”

"Thanks for the reminder." Mishima Qinglan hurriedly pulled the whistle, and then stared at the channel.

Sailing to the middle of Sunrise Lake, they encountered a 6,000 standard container ship of the New Luzon Sea, and the distance between the two sides was about 200 meters, slowly passing by.

Twenty-three minutes later, the Kirishima entered the east channel of the canal, which is 52 kilometers long, divided into two channels, north and south, with a width of 200 meters and a depth of 33~38 meters.

Along the way, the Kirishima encountered quite a few ships.

Another channel being dug not far away was also seen.

Mishima Aoran was very surprised by the efficiency and planning of Homo sapiens, and in his opinion, the navigable capacity of the Kra Canal at this time was already very strong.

However, he did not know that there was no separate double channel, which was substandard and unsafe according to the standards within Homo sapiens.

The excavation cost of Homo sapiens is also very low, and there is no need to detain and search like the Suez Canal and the Panama Canal.

Two and a half hours later.

The Kirishima successfully passed through the Kra Canal, saving not only 1,200 kilometers of range and fuel but also 60 hours of sailing time compared to a detour to Malacca.

In addition, the security has also been greatly improved, after all, there are pirates in the Strait of Malacca, and the Kra Canal is surrounded by the territory of the Homo sapiens company.

After receiving the report from Mishima Aoran, Mitsui Shipping Headquarters immediately made up its mind to let all its oil and gas carriers from West Asia go through the Kra Canal.

Now that the cost of shipping is soaring, the pressure on Dongying's import and export continues to increase, which can save transportation costs.

In terms of radiation resistance, other shipping companies are really not as good as the three major shipping companies in Dongying.

Other companies are very worried about the nuclear radiation problem in the Kra Canal, and they are worried that their ships will be contaminated with radioactive materials, so they can only watch Mitsui Shipping and New Luzon Shipping sail happily on the Kra Canal.
