"Long life in England (

"It doesn't matter that these two technologies are immature at present, then we will dig these two inventors, let me continue in-depth research and development, and deeply solve its shortcomings. I believe that as long as the research continues, it will definitely have a huge effect on our shipyard. Yes!" Li Lin said confidently.

First of all, he knows that in the future, even in the 21st century, arc welding technology will definitely be mainstream. Now that it has been invented, as long as you invest human, material and financial resources to continue research and development and solve its various problems, I believe that you will soon be able to reap the results!

"Ah? Dig it... But, even if it is dug, I don't know how many years it will take until it matures and can be used in shipbuilding. Boss, you have to think clearly!" Ronald couldn't help reminding road.

After all, no one knows how much money can be invested to perfect it, and no one knows how much time it will take.

Besides, what if the research finds that this technology is not suitable for shipbuilding in the end?

Wouldn't the previous investment and efforts have been in vain!

"Investment is always risky. Well, you don't need to persuade others. I understand the reason. Anyway, I will dig these two people over and hand it over to you! Just tell them that I will be willing in the first issue. Invest 500,000 pounds to research these two technologies, and if the first phase is successful, I can also increase the investment!" Li Lindao.

"This... good!" Ronald saw that his boss was so rich and powerful, and he didn't plan to persuade him to say anything more!

"Okay, go get busy."

"Okay."

...

Time flies, 2 years have passed in a flash!

It's already 1897!

Li Lin stood on the dock in Singapore, looking at his largest dock No. 2 in the distance.

"It has been seven years since I came to this world before I knew it!" Li Lin sighed with emotion.

A year later, he will be a father too!

Because Daphne was diagnosed last month and she was pregnant.

At present, the baby has been raised in Singapore with peace of mind.

Two years ago, he gave Daphne a Zhuyan Dan, which could make her face look like she was in her twenties. He planned to wait for her to give birth to a child, and he could consider giving her some practice in the first six levels of Qi practice, and it would be good to increase her lifespan.

He also ate a Zhuyan Dan himself.

Although he has a foundation-building cultivation base and has a beauty-preserving effect on his appearance, he still decided to eat a Zhuyandan to keep the appearance of a little fresh meat!

In the past 2 years, almost nothing bad has happened.

The gold mines in Angola are well developed, and gold mines worth more than 1 million pounds were dug out last year.

Many of its own companies are doing well.

That is to say, in the past two years, arms orders have gradually decreased, resulting in more pressure on the sales of steel produced by Li's Steel Company than in the previous two years. Li Lin is not surprised that there are fewer weapons orders. After all, this is not an era of war. People can't always buy weapons from you unless you have an endless stream of new epoch-making weapons.

However, the weapon company has developed some new rifles, new artillery, etc., and the production line has also been built. As long as there is an order, it can be produced at any time!

Fortunately, Li Lin's No. 1 and No. 2 docks are currently receiving a lot of orders.

Especially his No. 2 dock, a cargo ship with a displacement of about 5,000 tons began to be built a year ago!

It uses a diesel engine and uses new welding technology.

That's right, because he invested a lot of money, he also dug up those two guys and let them develop welding technology in depth. He then unknowingly told the other party about the welding technology of later generations Great inspiration.

It took the two of them a year to solve several major shortcomings of arc welding technology.

Can be used normally on welded steel.

Therefore, Li Lin did not hesitate to use it directly in the construction of this freighter!

Tomorrow, when it is officially completed, Li Lin plans to let this freighter undergo a wave of ocean-going tests, and at the same time, it will be announced to let the world know that diesel engines are used on large freighters, and Li Lin is the first person.

Although in 1903, the tanker "Vandal" and "Petit Pierre" became the first ships to be equipped with diesel engines.

But those are all inland ships of dozens of tons and hundreds of tons.

Of course, diesel engines are used on submarines, originally the "Egerrit" submarine in 1904, and there are two boats of the same type. The boat has a surface displacement of 202 tons.

However, the submarines manufactured by Li Lin in the past few years have already used diesel engines in advance, so the use of diesel engines on submarines is still the first of Li Lin.

However, freighters also use the diesel engines of warships, and the technology is larger than that of submarines!

Because submarines are generally more than 1,000 tons.

But cargo ships and warships start at every turn of several thousand tons, even twenty or thirty thousand tons.

The technology of the diesel engine is definitely higher!

Until 1912, it was an important year in the history of human navigation~lightnovelpub.net~ In this year, the first real large ocean-going ship "Ceylondia" was built!

Now, Li Lin wants to make the first real diesel ocean freighter born ten years ahead of schedule!

Of course, in addition to the above, in the past two years, the research departments of several of his companies have made many new R&D inventions. Of course, most of them were developed by the design drawings he took out for them.

In this way, the results are multiplied with half the effort, and the research and development costs are greatly reduced!

The biggest surprise for Li Lin in the past two years is about his hometown!

About this guy Sun Longxing.

Half a year ago, this guy was doing things in his hometown.

It is estimated that he used the batches of weapons that Li Lin sold him before, pulling up more than a thousand people, and even down a few cities.

Shock the world!

It is said that he also defended several cities for three months.

In the end, due to the lack of ammunition and food, coupled with the internal ghosts, and the different minds of their subordinates, those soldiers who had been trained in a hurry could not use these weapons scientifically. Anyway, under various factors, they still failed.

In the end, it is said that the scumbag went overseas to hide.

But this incident definitely shocked the world, and at the same time gave a head to many people in my hometown.

Absolutely groundbreaking move!

In this regard, Li Lin said with some emotion: "This Sun Longxing is really brave! He is really a talent!"

...

the next day.

Li Lin, a freighter with a displacement of 5,000 tons, was launched.

He named it - Flying Fish Freighter!

Starting tomorrow, directly from Singapore, go to Liverpool in England for the first ocean trip!

At the same time, I will also participate in the 7th Western Ship Exchange Conference in 2 months!

The venue is in Liverpool!
