Golden Fishery
v2 Chapter 618: .Sea Boxing Number (8/10)
I can’t stand it anymore. I will update eight chapters for the time being. There are three of the ten chapters owed last week. The other seven chapters can only be added later. I really can’t stand it! ****
Last weekend, Qin Shiou and Hanks agreed to study whether the fishery should buy a seaplane or a speedboat this Monday.
Undoubtedly, Hanks hopes that Qin Shiou can buy speedboats, because St. John’s Boston Offshore Heavy Industries can build ships, but cannot build airplanes. Seaplanes are still in the aviation industry without getting rid of the category of airplanes.
But whether the boat is a speedboat or a fishing boat, there is a problem that is difficult to solve, that is, the speed is too slow.
Qin Shiou didn't want to find the fish thief, the boat set off slowly, and it took a long time to find the fish thief.
Yes, if those boats only come to poach, it won’t be a big gain if they don’t put their nets at sea for a day or two.
But if the reputation of high-quality catches in Daqin fishing grounds is followed, will the fish-pirating boat still need to stay at sea for a day or two as before? They only need to get off the Internet and get one or two votes to leave within a few hours.
Qin Shiou’s original plan was to equip four high-speed boats, and then place them in the four locations of the fishing grounds, southeast, northwest, and then use radar to locate them, and if there is a fish-thief boat in any direction, they can directly send out the high-speed boat in that direction.
But even so, the ship’s moving speed is still not fast enough.
When Hanks heard Qin Shiou’s question, he knew that his business was not good enough, but he was an excellent salesman after all, and immediately changed his sales method: "Mr. Qin, you should know that the more night, the worse the weather is. When the time comes. Fish-thief boats become more rampant, right?"
Qin Shiou nodded, and Hanks continued: "Then you have to be careful. The seaplane cannot travel at night. Nor can it land on the sea when the weather is bad. Then I want to ask you, what do you do in this case? What to do?"
"But the speedboat is too slow. The speed of 70 kilometers is only 350 kilometers in five hours. And the seaplane can be done in just one hour!"
"We have no way to improve the speed, but we can optimize the relevant configuration. You can use your main gun, and we can install 4 secondary guns for your ship with a range of up to 120 meters."
"In addition, if you just install a turbojet engine to make a water cannon for a speedboat, it is a bit wasteful. We can transform your boat into a luxuriously decorated cruise ship, so that you can sail fishing and surfing. This is unmatched by seaplanes. Advantage."
Hanks explained one by one, quickly selling his own speedboat out, Qin Shiou was indeed tempted when he heard it.
The seaplane does have that problem. It is inconvenient to take off and land on the water at night, and it is inconvenient to take off and land on the water under bad weather conditions.
"Let me look at your speedboat." Qin Shiou finally decided to buy a speedboat. After all, he didn't need money.
Buying a seaplane, you only need one. If you buy a speedboat, you will have to have four speedboats permanently stationed on the surface of the fishery. But this is very handsome. There is a military ship on each side of the fishing ground, which is absolutely mighty and domineering.
Hanks showed Qin Shiou the latest generation of high-speed craft ‘Pegasus-class’ speedboats of Boston Offshore Heavy Industries.
The power of this kind of ship is fully immersed automatic dual hydrofoil gas turbine and water jet propulsion. The hull adopts a hybrid linear style, and the bow is a thin V-shaped linear shape, which helps to obtain good drainage sailing performance.
The stern of the ship is a short square tail line type, which, together with the pointed bilge, can minimize the high-speed resistance when the ship transitions to the wing state.
In addition, Hanks did not brag. This is a luxury speedboat. The hull of the Pegasus-class speedboat is 24 meters long and 8.5 meters wide. The draft is 3.2 meters. The displacement is 280 tons, and it is divided into 5 watertight compartments, of which there are 3 engine compartments at the rear; crew accommodation, dining room and other living compartments.
The other two cabins are the fuel tank in the middle and the cockpit on the head. The fresh water reserve is placed in the double bottom tank. This can conveniently lower the center of gravity of the ship and keep it stable in wind and waves.
The main gun is installed directly in front of the deck. As long as you aim at the target, you can complete all operations in the cab. The four secondary guns are installed on the front, rear, left, and right to ensure that the ship can launch an attack from any angle.
The flow rate of the main gun is 3,200 cubic meters per hour, which can release more than 50 cubic meters of seawater per minute, and the flow rate of the secondary gun is 600 cubic meters, which can release 10 cubic meters per minute, which directly draws water from the ocean, greatly reducing The deadweight of the ship.
After showing Qin Shiou the Pegasus-class speedboat, Hanks introduced a few more to him, including some ships that their factories cannot produce, so they can only order them from a large heavy factory in Boston, the United States as a middleman.
Qin Shiou finally chose the Pegasus-class speedboat, which has the fastest speed. It adopts the hybrid power that is used only by active warships. With only a few water cannons, the speed can reach forty-five knots.
Buying four ships at a time can be discounted. The price is 3.8 million yuan. Qin Shiou made a deposit and ordered four Pegasus-class high-speed boats, named "Dongfang Haiquan", "Western Haiquan", and "Nanfang Haiquan". Number','Northern Sea Boxing Number'.
After learning of Qin Shiou’s great handwork, the fishermen could only secretly wonder, where is the fisherman, this is the monarch of a small country.
After Hanks received the check, he called the factory, and a transport ship drove four fire trucks away, ready to start work.
Qin Shiou asked: "When will I see my ship soonest?"
Hanks said: "If we only see the first ship, we will have a completed ship for at most a week. What we lack now is to install five water cannons on the ship. If we want to see all of them, at least one month, because We only have two finished ships, and the other two ships need to be made now."
Qin Shiou nodded, this speed is fine.
Since he spent so much money on a high-speed boat, Qin Shiou simply bought the plane together, and he would also need to lease the plane in the future.
At a glance, Qin Shiou silently closed the website of Montreal Aerospace City. It’s so expensive!
His most promising aircraft is the Gulfstream G650ER. This aircraft has a range of 7,500 nautical miles at a cruising speed of Mach 0.85, which is close to 14,000 kilometers, which is nearly 1,000 kilometers higher than the G650 basic model that was put into use two years ago. The only commercial aircraft with a range of 7,500 nautical miles.
But the price of this plane is too expensive, it costs 74 million Canadian dollars!
It’s not that Qin Shiou couldn’t afford it. After he bought the ship, he still had more than 90 million yuan, but if he really bought the plane, it would really be an overnight return to the pre-liberation period.
Don’t think too much, Qin Shiou can’t buy this plane now, because he only flies a few times a year, but it costs hundreds of millions of RMB and hundreds of thousands to maintain it every day. That’s nothing but abuse.
Except for the Gulfstream G650ER, Qin Shiou is not a good choice for other aircraft, either because of the slow speed or the short range, which is not suitable for him.
The local tyrants are so headstrong. Qin Shiou bought this plane to be able to go home and check it often... (to be continued~^~)
