618. Sea Fist (8/10)

I can't stand it anymore. I'll update eight chapters for now. There are three of the ten chapters that I owe last week. The other seven chapters can only be filled in later. I can't stand it anymore! ****

Last weekend, Qin Shiou and Hanks agreed to study whether to buy seaplanes or speedboats in the fishing ground this Monday.

There is no doubt that Hanks hopes that Qin Shiou can buy speedboats, because St. Johns Boston Offshore Heavy Industry can build ships, but cannot build aircraft. Offshore aircraft does not escape the scope of aircraft and still belongs to the aviation industry.

But whether it is a speedboat or a fishing boat, there is one difficult problem that is, the speed is too slow.

Qin Shiou didn't want to find the fish thief after he found the fish thief. The ship set off slowly and drove for half a day before he could find the fish thief.

Yes, if those ships only come to poach, they will not get a big gain if they don’t put the net on the sea for a day or two.

But if the reputation of high-quality fishing catches in Daqin Fishery is made, will the fish thieves still need to stay at sea for a day or two as before? They just need to get off the net quickly and get one or two tickets to leave within a few hours.

Qin Shiou's original plan was to equip four high-speed ships, and then place them in four locations, southeast, west and northeast of the fishing ground. At that time, use radar to locate it. If you find a fish stolen boat in which direction, you can directly drive the high-speed ship in that direction.

But even so, the ship was not moving fast enough.

When Hanks heard Qin Shiou's inquiry, he knew that his business was not easy to do, but he was an excellent salesman after all, so he immediately changed his sales method: "Mr. Qin. You should know that the night is, the more rampant the weather is when the weather is bad. Is it right?"

Qin Shiou nodded, Hanks continued: "There is a point where you have to be careful. Seaplanes cannot travel at night, nor can they land on the sea when the weather is bad. Then I want to ask you, what should you do in this situation?"

"But the speed boat is too slow, at a speed of 70 kilometers, only 350 kilometers in five hours. And the seaplane can handle it in just one hour!"

"We cannot improve the speed, but we can optimize the relevant configurations for you. You can use your main gun. We can install 4 secondary guns for your ship, and the secondary gun with a range of up to 120 meters."

"In addition, if you just install turbo jet engines to make water cannons for speedboats, it would be a bit of a waste. We can transform your boat into a luxury decorated cruise ship, so that you can also drive a boat to fish and surf, which is an advantage that is incomparable to seaplanes."

Hanks explained one by one and quickly sold his speedboat. Qin Shiou was really moved when he heard it.

Seaplanes do have that problem. They are inconvenient to take off and land on the water at night, and in harsh weather conditions, they are inconvenient to take off and land on the water.

"Let me see your speedboat." Qin Shiou finally decided to buy a speedboat. After all, he is not short of money.

To buy a seaplane, you only need one. To buy a speedboat, you have to stay on the water surface of the fishing ground. However, this is very handsome. There is a force ship radiating on each side of the fishing ground. It is absolutely majestic and domineering.

Hanks showed Qin Shiou the latest generation of Boston Offshore Heavy Industry's "Peak Horse Class" speedboat.

The power of this ship is a fully immersive, self-controlled dual hydrofoil gas turbine and water jet propulsion. The hull adopts a mixed line style. The bow of the ship is a sharp and thin V-shaped line, which helps to obtain good drainage and navigation performance.

The stern of the ship is a short square tail line, and together with the sting, it minimizes the high-speed drag when the boat transitions to the wing.

In addition, Hanks did not brag, this is a luxury speedboat. The Pegasus-class speedboat has a total of 24 meters long, 8.5 meters wide, and a draft depth of 3.2 meters. The displacement is 280 tons. It is divided into 5 watertight compartments, including 3 cabins at the tail; crew cabins, dining rooms and other living compartments.

The other two compartments are the fuel tank in the middle and the cockpit at the head. Freshwater reserves are placed in double bottom compartments, which can facilitate the reduction of the ship's center of gravity and keep it stable in the wind and waves.

The main gun is installed directly in front of the deck. As long as it is aimed at the target, all operations can be completed in the cab. The four secondary guns are installed front, back, left and right respectively to ensure that the ship can launch an attack at any angle.

The flow of the main gun in one hour is 3,200 cubic meters, which can release more than 50 cubic meters of sea water per minute, and the flow of the secondary gun is 600 cubic meters, which can release 10 cubic meters per minute, which can directly draw water from the ocean, greatly reducing the load capacity of the ship.

After seeing Qin Shiou's Pegasus-class speedboats, Hanks introduced him several more, including some ships that were unable to be produced by their factories, so he could only be a middleman to customize them from a large heavy factory in Boston, USA.

Qin Shiou finally chose the Pegasus-class speedboat, which was the fastest, using hybrid power only used by active warships. With only a few water cannons, the speed can reach forty-five knots.

You can get a discount when purchasing four ships at a time, and the price is 3.8 million yuan. Qin Shiou made a deposit and ordered four Pegasus-class expressways, named "Oriental Sea Boxing", "West Sea Boxing", "Southern Sea Boxing", and "Northern Sea Boxing".

After learning about Qin Shiou's big move, the fishermen could only be secretly amazed. This is not the owner of the fishing ground, but the monarch of a small country.

After receiving the check, Hanks called the factory, and a transport ship drove away four fire trucks and prepared to start work.

Qin Shiou asked: "When will I see my boat as soon as possible?"

Hanks said: "If we only see the first ship, at most one week, we have a ship. 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 ships, the other two ships need to be cut and made now."

Qin Shiou nodded, this speed is OK.

Since he spent so much money to buy a high-speed boat, Qin Shiou simply bought a plane together, so he would have to rent a plane when traveling in the future.

As a result, when he saw Qin Shiou silently closed the website of Montreal Aerospace City. He is so expensive!

The aircraft he is most optimistic about is the Gulfstream g650er. This aircraft has a range of 7,500 nautical miles at a cruising speed of Mach 0.85, which is nearly 1,000 kilometers, which is nearly 1,000 kilometers higher than the basic g650 model put into use two years ago. It is the only commercial aircraft in the world with a range of 7,500 nautical miles.

But the price of this plane is too expensive, it actually costs 74 million Canadian dollars!

It’s not that Qin Shiou can’t afford it. He still has more than 90 million yuan after buying the boat. But if he really bought this plane, he would be back to before liberation overnight.

No need to think too much about it, Qin Shiou can't buy this plane now because he only took it a few times a year, but he had to spend hundreds of millions of yuan and hundreds of thousands of yuan a day to maintain it. That was simply a traitor.

But except for Gulfstream G650er, Qin Shiou's other aircraft were not favored by him. He was either slow or had a short range, which was not suitable for his choice.

The rich are so willful. Qin Shiou bought this plane to be able to go home and see it frequently... (To be continued)
