Chapter 23: Preparing and Heading to the Emerald Province
If you have money, you naturally have to use it, otherwise it's just a pile of paper.
Fang Chen immediately bought a complete set of industrial systems, including a large standard military base module, including a large main command module, nine large auxiliary module cabins, thirty-six medium-sized auxiliary module cabins, and one hundred and twenty small auxiliary module cabins.
In addition, it contains a total of 120 small energy cannons, 20 medium energy cannons, and 5 large energy cannons as base weapons.
The whole set is as high as 1 billion.
A set of large-scale electromagnetic radar system, the unit price is 20 million.
Two sets of large, five medium-sized, and ten sets of small-scale water extraction and purification equipment, totaling 11 million.
Three large cold storages, ten medium-sized cold storages, and thirty small cold storages, totaling 55 million.
Five small underground aircraft, with a unit price of 3.5 million units, a total of 17.5 million.
Three sets of large-scale ore crushing, screening and refining equipment, a single set of 800 million, a total of 2.4 billion.
Three sets of large-scale recycling plants, which can recycle, redisassemble and refine the wreckage of the warship into various alloys, 600 million sets, a total of 1.8 billion.
All told, a total of 5,303.5 million star dollars were spent.
With these, it is completely possible to build a completely self-sufficient military base in an uninhabited galaxy, achieving all-round self-sufficiency in food, industrial products, minerals from raw ore to refined alloys, warships and weapons, etc.
Then, Fang Chen spent another 10 million to 15 million to buy 20 T1 frigate blueprints again, spending a total of 260 million.
A complete set of blueprints for the T1 destroyer of about 80 million pieces, I bought 10 in one go and spent 800 million.
Then the T1 cruiser blueprint, which cost 1 billion per piece, only two were bought.
There are no battleship blueprints, not even T1 tiers.
Even the cruiser has only a few Liao Liao, and the price is extremely expensive, and it has reached more than 20% of the price of a normal cruiser.
But there is no way, there are too few blueprints for high-level warships and big ships, this belongs to the seller's market, what can you do if he wants to sell at such a high price, the buyer can only choose to buy or not, and if you want to, you have to accept the high price.
In this way, Fang Chen had accumulated a total of 30 frigate blueprints, 12 destroyer blueprints and 2 cruiser blueprints on hand.
Then, 10 more T5 frigates and 2 destroyers were procured for the construction of materials.
The cost of materials for a single T5 frigate is 400 million, and 10 ships are 4 billion in total.
The cost of materials for a single T5 destroyer is 3.96 billion, and for 2 destroyers it is 7.92 billion.
"it, it's expensive!"
And in order to build a ship, he also needs to buy a destroyer production line, so he asked the previous studio, an old production line needs 5 billion star dollars.
In the meantime, he also asked about the cruiser production line, and the price left him speechless.
Even if the old production line is about to be scrapped, it will take up to 30 billion star dollars to buy, if it is 50% new, it will need 80 billion star dollars, and if it is new, it will need 150 billion star dollars.
In addition, a destroyer shipyard needs 1 chief engineer with a monthly salary of 1 million.
100 senior shipbuilding engineers, with a monthly salary of 80,000 yuan, a total monthly salary of 8 million.
1,000 shipbuilding clone crews, monthly living expenses of 3,000 yuan, a total of 3 million living expenses.
All in all, the total monthly expenditure of a destroyer dock is 12 million, and the total expenditure is 180 million a year plus bonuses, a total of 15 salaries.
In order to play a better role, he bought another frigate production line by the way, and spent another 1 billion, as well as matching engineers and shipbuilding employees.
All combined, another 18.98 billion star dollars were spent.
With the remaining 19.7 billion star dollars, he is not ready to buy more materials for making warships, but .....
The next day, after Fang Chen registered with the family personnel department, he drove three frigates through the star gate in the interstellar fortress space station of Danxia Star to Jade Star, the capital of Emerald Province.
This report is only to report that I have left the Emerald Province for a long time, and I don't need to report where I am going, nor do I need to say how long I will be gone, but I just tell the family that I am leaving.
The stargate teleportation is very fast, only half an hour to an hour, and it can cross the distance of hundreds or thousands of light years, which is much faster than the jump.
The only bad thing is that it is very expensive.
The price of a ticket for a frigate is 1 million star dollars and 1,000 light years.
The price of a ticket for a destroyer is 3 million star dollars for 1,000 light years.
The price of a ticket for a cruiser is 10 million star dollars for 1,000 light years.
The price of a ticket for a battleship is 50 million star dollars for a thousand light years.
The flagship is too large to pass through a normal stargate, and only the super stargate of the Super Fortress can be used for the flagship to pass through.
In addition, the billing standard for small civilian ships is calculated according to frigates, medium ships are counted as destroyers, large ships are counted as cruisers, and super large civilian ships are calculated according to battleships, and cargo ships and merchant ships with cargo need to calculate additional costs according to the value of the goods in addition to the cost of the ship.
Therefore, there are obviously star gates that can be teleported quickly, but there are still many merchants who would rather take the risk of crossing the unknown and dangerous starry sky to other civilization star fields in order to save money.
When Fang Chen came out of the stargate of the Emerald Star, he saw an incomparably huge interstellar fortress, and the specifications of the battleship scan data were even larger than the interstellar fortress in Danxia Star.
The Emerald Star is the capital of the Emerald Lord, one of the six Star Masters of the Sun Federation, and one of the six most prosperous planets of the Sun Federation.
Compared to the stargate of the Danxia Star Fortress, which only has one channel to the Emerald Star, the stargate of the Emerald Galaxy has more than ten channels, and it can go to several small military lords under the jurisdiction of the Emerald Army Lord and the capital star of several other major military lords of the Sun Federation through the Star Gate.
The transportation is convenient, the trade volume is large, and the nature is more prosperous.
It is almost bustling with the naked eye, the number of spaceships in the galaxy is ten times that of Danxia Star, and the channel is even more lively.
After Fang Chen found a place to moor the spaceship, he opened the trading channel and directly searched for the battleship blueprint, and the blueprint was presented in front of him.
Just by taking a look, I could see the difference from Danxiaxing's side.
First of all, the number of blueprints sold is dozens of times higher, and the price is the same.
It's like the blueprint of the T1 frigate, the reserve price is 10 million, and it will not be like the price chaos of Danxiaxing, from 10 million to 15 million.
On top of that, there are some blueprints for T4 and T5 tier ships that occasionally appear here.
Even he pulled the drawings to the bottom, and even had the blueprint of the T5-class battleship, but the price was a bit outrageous.
A set of blueprints for T5-class battleships with a price of 50 billion star dollars.
This is just a blueprint, if it is a finished T5-class battleship, the total value is up to 240 billion.
The price gap between frigates and battleships is very large, the price of the finished product of the T5 class frigate is about 1 billion, and the price of 240 frigates is needed to compare with a battleship.
This is certainly unaffordable, and if you can afford it, you won't buy it.
One is that there is no capital.
The second is that there is no ability to command, and the battleship needs the basic command skill LV20 or above of the navy.
Third, there is no fixed income now, and it is difficult to support the daily maintenance of a T5 battleship.
