Chapter 379: fastest construction record

  Chapter 379 Fastest construction record

  While they were busy, Yuzheng No. 34 ship also left the pier and headed for the destination.

  Captain Xu Zailin stood on the bridge of the boat, looking at the sea ahead, feeling a little excited.

"This is a difficult task!" The instructor on the side said: "The new generation of fishery administration boats has not been built yet, and now we can only use this old boat that has been in service for more than 20 years. The displacement is only more than 300 tons .”

   "Yes, although this ship is an old ship, we have installed the latest water pump produced by the Huating Machinery Factory under the Mingzhou Group on our ship. Once encountering a situation, this equipment can play an important role."

   "Yes, all our hopes are pinned on this kind of equipment. It is said that the fishery administration department of the island country has also ordered ten professional fishery administration ships, which are equipped with our equipment."

  At the defense exhibition, Qin Tao sold a large number of catamaran water cannon boats. Of course, the most critical water cannon devices on them had to be handed over to the former water pump factory, which was their old business.

  After returning from Malaysia, Qin Tao issued a research and development task, and they were also very helpful. They produced a sample in the shortest time, and then installed it on their old Yuzheng 34.

  If they encounter some friction, they believe that they can completely complete the task with their own ship!

  The small Yuzheng No. 34 ship is heading towards its destination, and at this time, Zhenhua No. 1 has also sailed to the magnificent sea.

   On the surface of the water, the waves are blooming, and the seagulls are flying, and then curiously landed on this strange ship, watching a group of strange people.

"If there are pirates, they can easily step onto the middle of our ship. Next, if they want to control the ship, they have to climb to the bow and stern." Qin Tao stood on the top of the bridge, Give pointers to the following part.

  At this time, Li Siqi and Peng Weiyuan were a little confused, because they really didn't know why Mr. Qin said these things, probably to pass the boring time on the boat?

Yesterday, Mr. Qin was very interested in this topic, and he also specially instructed to make the climbing ladder into two sections. The way of lifting and lowering, they rushed to work overnight, and now it has been completed. Li Siqi stood there disapprovingly, with a face You have to show a serious attitude.

   Speaking of pirates, they were the most popular hundreds of years ago, but in modern society, pirates seem to be extinct, right?

"Now, let's make the ladder into two sections, so the pirates can't climb it. However, I think the pirates will never admit defeat. They will have other ways. For example, they may bring their own ladders. time, it may be dangerous."

   "Boss Qin, please forgive me." Peng Weiyuan finally couldn't help it: "Although I am only in my thirties, I have been floating on the sea for nearly twenty years, and I have never seen pirates."

   Boss Qin is really talking nonsense, what should I say next? Biubiu?

   Impossible thing?

  Xu Zhengyang wanted to cover his face from behind, isn't President Qin too indulgent?

   "Tell me, what are the golden sea routes in the world now?"

"The busiest places are of course the Suez Canal and the Anxi Bay area." Peng Weiyuan said: "Anxi Bay produces the most important oil in the world. After it comes out, part of it is shipped to Asia through the Strait of Malacca, and the other part is shipped to Europe through the Suez Canal. Except that the Pyramid countries closed the Suez Canal during the war in the past few years, and some large oil tankers directly bypassed the Cape of Good Hope, most of the ships navigating in Asia and Europe pass through the Suez Canal."

  Qin Tao nodded, this kind of geography knowledge, children can know it.

   "If you want to go to the Suez Canal, you have to pass through the Red Sea. In the Gulf of Aden, the border between the Red Sea and the Arabian Sea, there is a country that is currently very unstable."

   Anyway, I'm idle and bored, so I might as well just continue to be the prophecy emperor, otherwise how would I pass my life at sea?

   "Somalia?"

  There are two countries along the coast of the Gulf of Aden, Yemen in the north and Somalia in the south, but the north is relatively stable, and Somalia is different. In 1991, the Somali civil war finally broke out.

   This is the tragedy of poor countries.

  When it comes to the 1991 war, everyone will pay attention to the oil area. No one has noticed that there is a country called Somalia not far away on an important sea route, which is suffering from the raging flames of war.

  In addition to a news report with dozens of words, there is nothing else.

  No one will know, and what will happen next will be the most troublesome thing for all maritime countries: pirates.

People always want to live, and the poor also have the need to survive. As long as they can have a bite to eat, the poor will live in peace and stability. Anyway, it's just a life.

   This is the case in Somalia.

   Years of civil wars, countless people died, and countless people chose to use violence. In the end, they set their sights on the passing merchant ships along the way and began to do the oldest occupation of mankind.

In modern times, pirate is definitely a derogatory term, but in the previous era, pirates were also respected by people. In that era of great navigation, when pirates of a country came back, they would be warmly welcomed by all citizens, and even The ideal of many young people is to be a pirate.

   Now, Qin Tao has made an inference: Somalia has a civil war, and there will be pirates there in the future.

"Each of our ships will have a service life of several decades, and Zhenhua No. 1 is no exception. It may also face pirate attacks in the future. Therefore, now that we are free, let's discuss it. If we encounter What about the pirates?"

   "What should I do? Please bodyguards and weapons! Put two fire sticks on the shelf, and how many pirates come will have to kill them suddenly!" Li Siqi said.

  Although he is a shipbuilder, Li Siqi has never sailed on the sea, nor has he been to the ports of other countries, so his irrelevant answer can only make people speechless.

   Some of the crew members led by Peng Weiyuan were covering their mouths and laughing.

   "Why, did I say something wrong?"

"Li Gong, you probably don't know that armed civilian ships are not allowed to enter ordinary ports. Think about it, if you are qualified to carry weapons, will the red light districts on the shore kill a few people every day? ?”

  The biggest problem is that civilian ships cannot carry weapons!

   Even if you bring it, you have to throw it into the sea before entering the port. Moreover, if the big guys all carry weapons, it will cause a flood of weapons, and once there is friction at sea, they will be resolved with weapons, and the sea transportation will be a mess.

   "That is to say, we have to face a group of pirates carrying RPGs and AK rifles with bare hands?" Li Siqi was surprised now.

   "That's right, you summed it up very well." Qin Tao glanced at Li Siqi appreciatively: "This is the case. Our crew must find a way under this situation."

   "What can be done about this? We are unarmed!"

   "We are not defenseless." At this time, Peng Weiyuan said: "Our sea journey is long. To pass the time, we usually prepare some wine on board."

  Seafarers make a lot of money, but at the same time they are also very lonely. After all, it is not something ordinary people can afford to spend months at sea.

  So, no matter what the ship is, they will prepare some drinks. You can’t drink during the shift, but after you get off the post, you can drink a glass of wine, and then you can sleep comfortably.

   "Molotov cocktail?" Li Siqi also responded.

   During the Spanish Civil War, Franco's soldiers used Molotov cocktails to repel an attack by a Republican tank column. In the Soviet-Finnish War, this kind of Molotov cocktail was used more widely, and it was named after Lao Maozi's number two person at that time.

  After that, the Molotov cocktail began to refer to the Molotov cocktail.

  The preparation of the raw materials is simple, as long as the liquid fuel such as gasoline is filled in the wine bottle, then plugged with twisters, ignited and thrown out, it can become the simplest incendiary bottle.

   Moreover, it is simply too convenient to use here.

  If the pirates want to succeed, they can only go to the middle of the hull first, and then try to climb up.

  The bridge here is very tall, standing on it and using Molotov cocktails to hit the pirates below is really suitable.

   No wonder Mr. Qin asked someone to make two parts of the climbing ladder outside, so that he could still climb up to it.

   "Boss Qin, will the situation in Somalia really deteriorate to the point of unmanageable?" Peng Weiyuan was a little worried.

"Everyone hopes that the world will be peaceful, but this is always hope. What we have to do is to make ourselves stronger. At that time, our navy will protect our safety." Qin Tao said: "What I just said is just a preparation, but I never want to use it."

  The crew are ordinary people after all, but the pirates are vicious, so once they really greet the pirates, the situation will definitely be very dangerous.

   "Yes, Mr. Qin is right." Peng Weiyuan said with emotion: "After we officially sail in the future, we will definitely conduct anti-piracy training for the crew. We don't want to use it, but we have to be prepared."

  Qin Tao nodded, his foreshadowing work has been completed.

  The civilian ships built in the past were either built for inland rivers or for foreign shipowners. Now that I think about it, this ship is the first ocean-going ship delivered to a domestic customer!

   Therefore, Qin Tao must make anti-piracy a focus of propaganda.

   "There is a fishing boat ahead!"

   "Don't worry, everyone, we will keep sailing normally." Qin Tao said: "We will definitely encounter many ships along the way, but they will never know what we are going to do."

After sailing away from the mainland and not having to worry about leaking secrets, Qin Tao told several people in charge of the mission of this trip. At this time, hearing Qin Tao's words, everyone's hearts surged with heroism Come.

  We are going to do big things!

  Qin Tao returned to the cabin.

  Since boarding the ship, the sea soul shirts have not left the cabin to avoid unnecessary trouble.

  At this time, Zhang Haiyang, the person in charge of Haihun Shirt, was squatting in front of the bed, spreading out a map on the bed, studying something.

  Although there is a desk in the room, the area is too small, which is enough to write a diary, and the bed is still spacious.

  There are a few people beside, watching together.

   "What are you looking at?" Qin Tao walked in with a smile.

   "Boss Qin, we are looking at the chart and studying the nearby sea area. The sky is high and the emperor is far away. No matter what happens, we have to deal with it ourselves."

  Qin Tao nodded: "Well, it is necessary to study, but you should have studied it thoroughly in the recent period, right? Change another one and study what you will do after you go up."

"All right."

  So, a new map was rolled out, but this time it was not a sea map, but a map of their living area.

"Your main activity area is Platform No. 1. After you go up, you need to connect the pipes in the room as soon as possible to test whether the water pipes can flow normally and whether there is any problem with each circuit. We can also repair it on the spot. If we leave, You'll have to deal with it yourself."

   "President Qin, we believe in the construction technology of Mingzhou Group, and the rooms you provide must be fine." Zhang Haiyang said.

   "Don't trust us. As long as it is a machine, there will always be a breakdown. I don't know if the solar panels on the roof can meet your needs. If it is too hot, turn on the diesel generator."

In the 1960s, solar power generation technology began to exist in China. In 1983, a 10-kilowatt (KW) civilian photovoltaic power station was built somewhere in China. After decades of wind and rain, the power can still be maintained at around 7 kilowatts (KW).

  However, the current domestic photovoltaic industry is still very weak, so the solar panels on the top of these houses are imported from island countries. The explosive growth of the domestic photovoltaic industry will have to wait until after the new millennium.

At the destination, the sunlight is strong and solar energy is abundant, so Qin Tao proposed this plan, but it is a bit wishful thinking to use solar cells to drive the air conditioner, and there is no inverter air conditioner yet. The era of electricity.

  So, if you want to turn on the air conditioner, you can only use a diesel generator.

"Mr. Qin, we can endure hardships and are not afraid of the heat. I have gone up for the third time. The first time I lived in a cat's ear hole on the sea, and the second time I lived in a yurt on the sea. Now, we live in a building with complete water and electricity. Everyone I’m so happy, just have an electric fan to blow it, and save the diesel!”

"What can we save? Our navy still lacks this bit of diesel oil?" Qin Tao said: "Only when the living conditions are better can the big guys eat well, sleep well, and have energy. You don't have to feel that you are special. Others The reefs will all be equipped with the same equipment."

   When it comes to diesel, the navy really has no shortage. After all, how much oil does a warship have to burn for a trip? No matter how nervous you are, there is no shortage of them.

   "Boss Qin, everyone is familiar with the map of our living area, but we are still a little curious about platforms No. 2 and No. 3."

   "You don't know what those two platforms are for?" Qin Tao was a little surprised.

   "The task we accepted was to temporarily use those two platforms as training grounds, especially after going up, we need to lay a layer of refractory bricks on them. We think it is very interesting."

  Although the platforms have been welded, the buildings on the platforms are separated. It is impossible to lay the refractory bricks on these two platforms in advance. They can only wait until they go up. These soldiers lay the bricks on during the training interval.

   Anyway, it is flat, just lay a layer neatly.

  As for why they need to shop, they are a little curious.

  These two platforms seem to be able to take off and land helicopters, and they are also equipped with a few containers. They should be tools for aircraft maintenance, but they still don't know why the refractory bricks are laid.

   "Well, I'll know it when the time comes, I hope I don't need to use it."

  Qin Tao can only hope that everything goes well. It is best not to use vertical take-off and landing fighter jets, because that means the situation will deteriorate to a certain extent.

   "We don't need it either?"

   "Of course you have to use it. You can train on it every day. When our Shuangsha Island Village is established in the future, I may come here to fish again."

   "Mr. Qin, then we'll be waiting for you on Shuangsha Island!"

  Qin Tao patted Zhang Haiyang on the shoulder and walked out.

  The ship is still moving.

In the vast sea, even if it is a tanker of hundreds of thousands of tons, it is only a small point. The dispatch of Zhenhua No. 1 did not attract anyone's attention. When they moved to the southern waters, the fourth Tropical Storm No. 1, just left this sea area.

  The sun is hot, scorching the boat under your feet, even if you wear shoes, you can feel the heat wave from the deck.

   "I guess, if you crack an egg, you can spread egg pancakes on this deck." Standing on the deck, Qin Tao couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

   "Yes, Mr. Qin, that's really true. It's almost sixty or seventy degrees on our deck, and you can really fry eggs. Let's go to the bridge. There is air conditioning inside."

  When the ship was being rebuilt, everything was fully installed, and it floated on the sea all year round. If there is an air conditioner in the bridge, it will definitely be a comfortable enjoyment for the people on the boat.

  Domestic warships used to have no air-conditioning, and they had to rely on their own firm will to endure missions in the southern waters. It was only later that a fully enclosed frigate appeared, with a three-defense system, and it was also equipped with an air conditioner, so that it would be more comfortable to perform tasks.

Hearing Xu Zhengyang's words, Qin Tao smiled: "I just want to experience the hardships of the former naval soldiers. When we build new warships, we must ensure the comfort of the soldiers. The warships built for the Southern Fleet, the air-conditioning system power must be increased."

   "Boss Qin, you have experienced it too, go back now, if you suffer from heat stroke, how can I explain to the leader."

   "Okay, listen to you."

  Qin Tao walked back.

   Entering the boat bridge, there is a hint of coolness inside. Sure enough, there is still an air conditioner.

   "Our soldiers guarding here have suffered a lot! When we replace the new generation of outposts, we will be able to experience the same refreshing feeling." Qin Tao sighed.

  I came here a few months ago, and it wasn’t so hot. Now June and July are the hottest time!

   "Well, Mr. Qin, based on what you are doing now, my life, Xu Zhengyang, is yours. You have made too many contributions to our navy." Xu Zhengyang was a little emotional.

   "What are you talking about?" Qin Tao gave Xu Zhengyang a blank look.

  The ship continued to sail forward, and finally, Shuangsha Island was in sight.

  The time is nine o'clock in the morning.

   "Attention, slow down and sail!"

   At the bow of the ship, an experienced old sailor stood there, looking at the situation below the sea surface, holding a chart tightly in his hand.

After all, they are 60,000-ton extra-large transport ships, and they don't have the equipment of scientific research ships. They can only observe the underwater situation with their eyes and cooperate with the sea chart. If they make a mistake and hit the reef, then There will be big troubles.

   Moreover, they have to be close to the reef so that they can put the cargo on the ship.

  The speed of the ship was very slow, slower than that of a person walking. Little by little, they moved up little by little. After walking for more than two hours, at eleven o'clock in the morning, they finally arrived at the designated location.

  Everyone let out a long breath.

   "Attention, prepare for lifting operation!"

  The crane at the tail turns.

In the middle of the ship, several staff members stood on the platform that was about to be hoisted, and hung the sling on the reserved position of the platform. The huge platform was slowly hoisted, and on the bridge, unrelated people were watching this magnificent scene. scene.

  Building tasks that would have taken months now only require a few strokes.

  The crane rotated slowly, and the platform moved towards the reef. After more than ten minutes of adjusting the posture, the platform was finally placed firmly on the reef!

  In the past, if you wanted to build such a platform, you had to drive piles, pour cement concrete, and toss for a long time. Now, it takes ten minutes to put it on!

  Because the concave-convex parts are very precise, after the button is fastened, the seam fits perfectly. It only needs to screw in a few expansion screws, or even nothing, and it will be stable.

   Next, it’s time to lift the house above!

  Reinforced concrete buildings are the most suitable building materials in this era. This kind of house is not afraid of the sun and wind. Even if a tropical storm comes, don't even think about blowing it over.

   One, two, three! Keep building blocks!

  The three houses have all been hoisted, and this project is much faster than just hoisting the platform.

  Qin Tao glanced at his watch, it was 11:40, an hour was not used up, and this solid reef outpost was formed.

  From the cat ear piercing of the first generation, to the yurt of the second generation, and then to the third generation in front of you, what is this? Fixed fort?

   This is a moment to remember!

  Although there are still two other platforms that need to be hoisted, Zhang Haiyang and others can't wait to go up. They rowed a small boat, tied it to the side of the platform, stepped on the water on the reef, and stepped on the platform.

   "Quickly, put up our flagpole!" Zhang Haiyang shouted loudly.

  The location of the originally planned basketball court had reserved a location for the installation of the flagpole, and the sea soul shirts quickly erected the flagpole.

  The time is just twelve o'clock.

  Among the familiar tunes, a flag was raised slowly. Zhang Haiyang took all the sea soul shirts and stood in front of the flag, raising his hands in salute.

   "I swear!"

  After taking the oath, Zhang Haiyang shouted loudly: "Now, wading patrol!"

  They walked off the reef and patrolled forward in the sea water below the calf. The person at the front held a brightly colored flag.

  Looking at this scene, Qin Tao was extremely excited, and he felt his eye sockets moist.

   It seems that the monthly ticket is doubled on the last day, ask for a monthly ticket.
