Chapter 236 The Navy Needs Comprehensive Supply Ships

 Can't light it, why can't it light it? What went wrong? It shouldn’t be!

Wang Hongcheng relit the lighter and leaned over again, but still couldn’t light it!

Color and other things, it looks fine!

"Scientist Wang, what's going on?" The leader also looked ugly: "Did the experiment fail?"

"No, no, there may be something wrong with this cup. I'll change my position and get the fuel again!" Wang Hongcheng said, stood up, and picked up a can bottle that he originally planned to hold fuel.

“Scientist Wang, why are you so fond of cans and bottles? Is it because they are easy to drop?”

“I don’t understand what you are talking about,” Wang Hongcheng said.

“Don’t understand? Then we will perform it live. Lao Luo, please ask two soldiers to help Scientist Wang check his body.”

 “Hey, what are you going to do?”

Before Wang Hongcheng finished speaking, he was already restrained by two soldiers. They searched him with ease. Then, he took out two identical cans and bottles from Wang Hongcheng's trousers. They were full of cans and bottles. Special liquid!

“I guess this liquid can be ignited, let’s give it a try.” Qin Tao said, opening one of the cans, and immediately the smell of gasoline spread out.

“No need to light it, this is a can of gasoline.” Mr. Cao said.

"What are you doing?" Wang Hongcheng still looked very angry: "You can't do this to me!"

“Nothing else, now you can use your favorite cans to fill your expanded fuel!”

The leaders above all looked extremely ugly. When the two bottles were found from Wang Hongcheng's body, they already understood.

This is a plan to cheat the situation by using the liquid prepared in advance as expanded fuel from the swimming pool.

Of course, this is just one method. He also has other tricks. This pool full of expanded fuel also has additional methods.

Wang Hongcheng took the can and bottle, walked to another corner, salvaged a bottle, and then experimented there on the spot.

 Can’t light it, still can’t light it!

He was completely messed up, so he moved to another corner, but it still didn’t work!

 What's going on? What's going on?

Wang Hongcheng looked at the soldiers with guns and ammunition around him and knew that he couldn't escape this time.

“It’s too cold and our expanded fuel didn’t work!”

“You just said that it has nothing to do with other factors.”

 “No, no, it’s related to the temperature, I was wrong, it’s related to the temperature!”

“No, it has nothing to do with the temperature, it has something to do with the pump room over there. Leaders, are you willing to go and see what’s going on?”

 Is it related to the pump room?

 At this time, all the leaders have realized that this is probably a scam. Now, they are going to see what is going on!

 The swimming pool must have a pump room. The water in it must be pumped out and drained every once in a while, and then replaced with new water. Otherwise, the water will completely stink in ten days and a half.

If the water is collected from the water company, then the water in this pool will also cost a huge amount of money. Anyway, many departments in the country are not complete and do not supervise groundwater. There is a well below the pumping room here, and the diving Put the pump in and it can directly pump up the water below.

Since the swimming pool was abandoned, no one has taken care of the pump room. It looks dilapidated and the door of the pump room seems to have never been touched.

 However, if you look at the window on the side of the pump room, you can see a lot of traces.

At this time, Wang Hongcheng was carried over by two soldiers. His face turned pale, and he knew he had been trapped.

 Hurrah!

The door of the pump room was opened, and with a creaking sound, everyone saw the scene inside the pump room. Two soldiers were guarding a woman. There were several gasoline barrels in the small pump room.

"Scientist Wang, who is this woman? Do you know her? Is she your wife Wang Qilin?" Qin Tao said with great interest: "I originally admired you and thought your magic was very good, but I didn't expect that with It’s such a simple way!”

 What simple method?

 Of course it’s a matter of substituting one thing for another!

It is impossible to burn all the water in a pool, but you can replace the water at the top of the pool with gasoline.

This is the pump room. Just use the water pump here to pump all the barrels of gasoline into the pool. In half an hour, the gasoline will be floating on the water. Wang Hongcheng scooped water from the water and what he scooped out was gasoline. , you can light it.

 It’s that simple!

However, Qin Tao saw it at a glance, so he asked Marine Corps soldiers to dispatch to control the overall situation, and then found two people with quick hands and feet to climb in through the side window of the pump room and control the woman inside. In this way, The raccoon cat's method of exchanging the prince could no longer be used.

Wang Hongcheng also did a lot of work. He installed a submersible pump to make noise so as not to be heard. He also put a lid on the pool with great fanfare so that no one would notice that gasoline was being released from the water pipes.

Moreover, even if none of these worked, he could still use cans and bottles he had hidden in advance.

 However, under Qin Tao's fiery eyes, none of this worked!

Today's performance was interviewed on the spot by a TV reporter and recorded on the spot by a video camera. Now, with the camera pointed at the pump room, all the truth is revealed.

Wang Hongcheng cannot do this kind of thing alone. His wife cooperates every time and does it flawlessly. However, a scam is always a scam and will always be exposed.

"I, I, I..." Before Wang Hongcheng finished speaking, he felt the world spinning and his body softened.

"Hey, what is this? The liar has changed his career to porcelain?" Qin Tao said with a smile: "The facts are clear. If he dares to deceive the army, he will have to go to a military court and take him away!"

Luo Wenzhong was still frightened: "Mr. Qin, thank you for coming. If we were deceived by him, we don't know how much we would lose!"

“Hmph!” The big leader was also angry: “If you can’t convict him, then take him to our court in Huating. He almost defrauded us of a huge amount of money. Such people must be severely punished by law!”

Everyone was very busy, and as a result, they were tricked by the liar. Everyone felt bad. Only Mr. Yan and Mr. Cao looked at Qin Tao with a smile.

What is the fifth greatest invention? This is absolutely a shame! Now that you have encountered it, it would be a pleasure to expose it.

 Just now when they were checking around with Qin Tao, they had already locked in on the target pump room, and had hypothesized several ways in which the other party would cheat, which were basically consistent with the facts, which made them very happy.

This is how a farce ended. Qin Tao originally wanted to leave, but was held back by Luo Wenzhong.

“Mr. Qin, the leader of the base here wants to invite you over.”

 “Forget it, don’t thank me, these are all what I should do.”

 “Not just to say thank you.”

 “What else is there?”

“Anyway, just go there!” Luo Wenzhong said: “The leader gave me an order. If I don’t complete it, I’m afraid...”

 “Okay, then I’ll go there.”

 Qin Tao originally planned to go back to the university to discuss 3D printing technology, and then go back to the factory to see how the machine was installed. Now that he was sincerely invited, Qin Tao had no choice but to go there.

The beautiful Mercedes-Benz G was galloping on the street and soon entered the military port.

Mingzhou is the main base of the navy. There is also a base in Huating, which mainly provides logistical support. After entering, Qin Tao saw warships standing on the military port and flags flying above.

In the office, Leader Shen sat there and said with emotion: "Mr. Qin, we made a big joke and made you laugh. If it weren't for you, maybe we would have been deceived."

Qin Tao shook his head: "You're welcome. Without me, everyone will be able to keep their eyes open so that the scammers can't hide. But... why do we attach so much importance to this project?"

Qin Tao's words can be regarded as asking the key point. Leader Shen sighed: "Many professionals say that this Hongcheng base fluid is a scam, but we are still very concerned about it, and it is not because of the logistics supply of our navy. Problem. Think about it, if this thing is true, then our navy will solve the big problem of fuel supply!"

 Hongcheng base liquid is so impressive that one liquid can produce tens of thousands of times the volume of fuel. If this thing is true, how much trouble will the Navy save?

When a navy warship goes to sea, it only needs to bring a few more barrels of Hongcheng base liquid. If there is not much fuel on the ship, just pump some seawater into the fuel tank, mix it with Hongcheng base liquid, and it will directly turn into expanded fuel! In this way, you don't even need to bring a supply ship, and it has unlimited endurance.

The temptation is so great that even if they know there are risks involved, they still want to give it a try. If it is true, the prospect is too good.

"We are still naive, pie in the sky, how can such a good thing happen." Leader Shen said: "If this incident spreads, I will be embarrassed to see people in the future. I don't know how many people will laugh at us. Alas, still It’s not about poverty.”

 Leader Shen had a wry smile on his face.

If the navy had money to refuel warships, there would be no need to think about such crooked ways. This is just like seeking medical treatment in a hurry. Because you don’t have money, you want to take shortcuts and get deceived. Fortunately, you didn’t get defrauded.

"Yes, we are still too poor." Another leader interjected: "Our navy currently only has two comprehensive supply ships. The supply capacity is too poor and the performance is old. It cannot meet the demand at all. Therefore, we Only then would you be tempted by Hongcheng’s liquid."

Qin Tao nodded, he was also aware of these things.

In the past, the country's thinking was an offshore navy, so there was no need for integrated supply ships. It was not until the 1970s that China decided to test-fire intercontinental missiles into the South Pacific. In order to allow naval formations to penetrate deep into the ocean, it finally developed the first A kind of supply ship: Class 905 oil, water and dry cargo supply ship.

This kind of supply ship has a full load displacement of more than 20,000 tons and can transport more than 10,000 tons of fuel, more than 1,000 tons of diesel fuel, 200 tons of boiler water, 200 tons of drinking water and 50 tons of lubricating oil. There are four oil supply tanks and two material supply tanks on the ship, with the ability to supply three more ships at the same time. At the same time, there is a flight deck at the tail, but there is no hangar, so the vertical supply capability is limited.

There are a total of four 905-class supply ships, but only two are still in active service in the navy. The third ship was changed to "Haicang" in 1980, with the hull number Nanyun 950. Decommissioned in 1989 and transferred to the Merchant Navy for use as a tanker.

The fourth ship, the "Nasr", had the original hull number 871. After it was completed in 1985, it was directly delivered to the Lao-Pakistan Navy, with the hull number A47.

At present, the Navy relies on two old 905s that have been in service for more than ten years to serve as the only supply ships. Their performance is too poor, and emergency tasks may not be completed satisfactorily. Therefore, Leader Shen, who has been in charge of naval logistics for many years, is responsible for Hong Chengji liquid was tempted.

It's a pity that it's like a moon in water and a flower in the mirror, which is simply impossible to achieve. Now Leader Shen already knows how naive he is, and he smiles helplessly.

Qin Tao's mind was also spinning rapidly. Could it be that the leader called him over just to explain?

 Definitely not!

 What is that for?

 The answer is already available.

“Now, the Red Empire has collapsed, and many of Lao Maozi’s ships under construction have stopped.” Qin Tao said: “We can buy a supply ship from Lao Maozi at a low price to meet the urgent needs of the navy.”

 Purchase from Lao Maozi! This is the real reason why leaders want to find Qin Tao!

The 052 destroyer is under construction. According to the thinking of the top brass of the Navy, after this advanced second-generation destroyer enters service, it plans to go abroad and visit some countries. Who will accompany it then? Is it still the old Type 905 comprehensive supply ship?

 Of course this won’t work! There must be advanced supply ships!

 However, the navy does not have the money to build it, nor does it have world-leading technology, so we take this opportunity to ask Qin Tao to help solve the problem.

"I have inspected many shipyards in Lao Maozi." Qin Tao said, since he decided to do this kind of thing, he might as well settle the matter.

"In the Black Sea Shipyard, there is a Fedko-class supply ship. This supply ship was converted from a tanker. It was originally planned to equip Lao Maozi's navy, but now, with the collapse of the Red Empire, this ship is half-built The supply ship has been suspended."

 Everyone present looked at Qin Tao with shining eyes.

"This is a large supply ship with a full load displacement of 37,000 tons. It can carry up to 24,000 tons of supplies, including 20,000 tons of fuel, 2,000 tons of ammunition, 1,400 tons of food and 600 tons of fresh water. The supply capacity is our existing More than twice that of a supply ship." Qin Tao told everything in his memory.

In fact, he had never seen this ship at all. It was just a memory from his previous life. After all, this ship finally crossed the ocean and became the largest Type 908 supply ship in the navy. Then it accompanied the 052 destroyer and visited many countries. , it can also be regarded as a star supply ship.

 “How is the ship?” Leader Shen asked excitedly.

"The hull has been basically completed, and the engine and other systems have been installed. However, many cables and pipeline equipment on the ship have not yet been laid, which means it still needs to be outfitted. It is a semi-finished product." Qin Tao said: "However, this It is also good for us. As long as we buy back this ship and its blueprints, we will be able to obtain world-class large supply ship technology. Some equipment that we cannot produce for the time being can also be purchased from Da Mao, and then You can imitate it yourself.”

Everyone nodded, it was a half-finished product and you could learn techniques, that would be great!

Although it is a warship, this comprehensive supply ship can also be used for both military and civilian purposes. Therefore, Ermao will not face too much pressure in selling this supply ship. If you want to purchase Varyag, it will not be so easy.

"If we say its only flaw, it is that its power is too poor, and its maximum speed is only a dozen knots." Qin Tao said: "At this speed, it cannot keep up with a warship moving at full speed, but it is still no problem for normal cruising. of."

When warships are in normal operation, they are in cruising mode, that is, at a speed of more than ten knots. In special circumstances, they will operate at full speed to a speed of thirty knots. Therefore, the speed deficiency of the supply ship is not a big problem.

“Mr. Qin, we need this supply ship, and we hope you can help coordinate it.” Leader Shen made up his mind.

Qin Tao nodded: "Don't be too anxious about this. On the one hand, it takes time for the navy to approve it at all levels. On the other hand, Lao Maozi has not yet understood the situation clearly. If we come to buy, maybe the other party will start talking like a lion." ."

 Shopping requires skills.

It has only been a few days since the Red Empire officially collapsed. The various independent countries are still in the fresh stage, thinking that they are still strong and still dreaming about a new life. At this time, I came to the door to buy it. The other party thought that this kind of thing was very popular and would definitely ask for a high price.

Qin Tao is here to collect rags, not to be taken advantage of.

Only after a period of time, when their shipyards are no longer sustainable, will they deal with their own junk. At that time, they can buy good things at low prices.

"Yes, Mr. Qin, everything is at your discretion." Leader Shen was very happy. If the nearly 40,000-ton comprehensive supply ship can be built, it will definitely be the largest displacement warship in the navy!

“Well, I also have a request.” Qin Tao said: “After buying this warship, it must be outfitted at our Mingzhou Shipyard.”

Qin Tao can't be a second-rate dealer for nothing, he must get some benefits for his own shipyard. If the Navy wants to upgrade submarines, Mingzhou Shipyard must take over. If the Navy wants to upgrade integrated supply ships, it must be completed in its own factory!

This is also a normal condition, so Leader Shen agreed immediately, even if he didn't have the relationship with Leader Wu, he had to agree, not to mention Qin Tao's background.

 It’s another busy day.

　　When he returned to his cozy home at night, Qin Tao was surprised to find that Vitalia's eye circles were actually red.

“What’s wrong?” Qin Tao asked curiously.

“Qin, I’m leaving tomorrow, and I can’t bear to leave you.” Vitalia said, “I really want to stay here forever.”

“There is no such thing as a banquet that lasts forever. We will come find you when we have time in the future.” Qin Tao said. A big stone was relieved in his heart. Vitalia was finally leaving! I have been holding it back during this period. Only when you leave can we live in the world of two people!

Zhao Ling is also very anxious. The surveying, mapping and imitation work is carried out in an orderly manner, and she is very busy every day. What is the result? Now she still has to play with Vitalia every day, and she really wants to go back to work.

 However, looking at Vitalia's reluctance to leave, she also felt a little sad about parting. Women are all emotional animals.

“It’s a pity that I can’t find a man you like here.” Qin Tao said, “We can only wait until later.”

Vitalia looked at Qin Tao with complicated eyes.

It was too difficult to find a man like Qin Tao, so she could only leave the East and return to Moscow with such regret.

Her father needs her because his career is getting bigger and bigger, and she has to help him.

After seeing off Vitalia, Qin Tao let out a long breath: "It's easy to ask a **** to send someone off, but it's hard to say goodbye to a god. Finally, it's time to send her away. Xiaoling, I will always stay in Huating during the recent period. You will be with me every day." You all have to go home on time."

Zhao Ling looked at Qin Tao with a smile: "You have to be a monk for a few days recently."

 “Why?”

After Qin Tao hesitated, he realized that this was a visit from an old relative? How many more days do you have to hold it in?

Let’s have some fun first. Thanks to the wide Mercedes-Benz G, Qin Tao can easily twist his body to the passenger seat, and then put his head up.

“Hey, isn’t it good to be in the airport parking lot?”

 “It’s not a car vibration, there’s nothing bad about it.”

 “What is car vibration?”

"that is…"

Having said this, he was interrupted by the ringtone of Big Brother. Qin Tao could only kiss his wife's lips, and then picked up the phone.

 “What? Okay, I’ll go back immediately!”

"What's wrong?" Zhao Ling saw Qin Tao's serious face and had an ominous premonition in her heart.

“There are some problems encountered in the construction of the dock.” Qin Tao said, “I have to go back and take a look.”

Those who stayed in the shipyard were already able to take care of themselves. Only when they couldn't solve the problem would they call Qin Tao to solve the problem.

 Construction of dock? Zhao Ling breathed a sigh of relief and thought it was something big.

 “Then will you come back?”

“Well, I’ll come back when everything is settled there.” Qin Tao said, “By then, I won’t have to be a monk anymore.”

Zhao Ling smiled and said nothing. Qin Tao started the car: "Let's go, I'll take you back first."

This Mercedes-Benz G is so fun to drive. Needless to say, there are envious looks on the roadside. The tall body makes Qin Tao feel like he can see the mountains at a glance. It is much easier to drive than that Santana. Sure enough, successful people have to drive big G.

Qin Tao has walked this road countless times. That afternoon, the car returned to Mingzhou, parked on top of the dock under construction, and then looked at the vast ocean below.

Kong Laoer, who is in charge of infrastructure construction, looked confused: "Mr. Qin, this place can't be built at all. After digging, it starts spraying water! We have thought of many ways, but we can't solve the problem. This shipyard, I’m afraid…”

To build a shipyard, you have to build it by the river, and the soil on the riverside is a permeable layer. If you dig it down, you will get water. They have thought of various ways to solve the problem before, but now, they are at their wits' end and can only Qin Tao was called back.

If you reselect the location, it will waste more time. If you continue to do it, you will have no way to start!
