Chapter 289 Shipyard completed
After Qu Mao and Fuer Swamp sent off Maffei Trani and Sylvia Ocean to open up a new sea route, they exchanged information on the recruitment and training of naval soldiers.
Actually, Qu Mao was very apprehensive about Maffei Trani's plan. The benefits of successful development are obvious, but can it be successful? Will there be dangerous situations on the road? Qu Mao is not sure about these issues.
After all, in this era, with the technological level of the Continental Hegemony, long-distance voyages are still very risky.
Before the first wave went to Yancheng, Qu Mao encountered light rain on outlying islands, indicating that there may still be storms on the ocean.
The flood on the outlying islands at the beginning is still fresh in Qu Mao's memory. What if the new shipping route opens up and the fleet encounters a storm at sea?
Not a few days after the new sea route exploration fleet set off, Qu Mao received a long-distance communication from Su Qiaoer, and learned that the shipyard had been built.
The shipyard, as a key construction project in Yi Village, has been built for nearly five months since Lai Dima personally delivered the architectural drawings to Yi Island.
Hearing the news, Qu Mao was extremely excited.
Afterwards, a remote communication application was sent to Faur Swamp, asking him to arrange for naval fighters to organize the severely damaged warships that had not yet been fully repaired, and bring 15 boatmen drawn from the small village of Fulau, and The apprentices they were optimistic about sailed directly from the sea to the outlying island shipyard.
The military port can indeed provide functional services for repairing warships, but repairs in warships are not as convenient as driving back to the shipyard for repairs. The tools and techniques for repairing ships are not at the same level at all.
The 15 boatmen transferred from Fulou Village were said to be seconded from the beginning. After the completion of the shipyard, they should of course return to work in the shipyard.
As for the ship repairers in the military port, among the two waves of skilled workers brought back from Yancheng this time, 5 households are shipwreck families, and at least 5 ship workers can go to work in the military port. The apprentices he brings can barely support the warship repair function of the military port.
When the 15 boatmen from Fulou Village returned to the shipyard, they brought 20 apprentices from Nanlai Village back to the shipyard. At that time, a total of 30 excellent-level qualified citizens were transferred from Nanlai Village to the military port to assist the boatmen in repairing warships. , The boatman took away 20 and left 10 apprentice boatmen.
In this way, only 5 boat technicians newly purchased from Yancheng and 10 apprentices with about 2 months of work experience remain in the repair force of the military port.
Qu Mao went to the shipyard with the warship that departed from the military port. On the way, he did not forget to develop a remote communication for Zhang, the village chief of Nanlai Xiaocun, and asked him to send 30 more elite-level qualified leaders to the military port as apprentice shipwrights.
Although Zhang Kai, the head of Nanlai Xiaocun, complained that there were not many elite-level qualified leaders left, the tasks arranged by Qu Mao still needed to be carried out.
The 20 boatman apprentices brought to the shipyard were all young and mostly single. Qu Mao planned to move them from Nanlai Village to Fulou no matter how well they learned skills in the future. Xiaocun or Fucun, which was separated from Fulou Xiaocun.
It is impossible for Qu Mao to completely ignore the problem of open complaints. The proportion of excellent-level qualified citizens in the territory of Yi Village is relatively low. This Qu Mao is clear. All the elite-level qualified citizens in the territory of Yi Village are all arranged in Nanlai Village.
Qu Mao even thought, otherwise, don’t accumulate cheating points, and buy 20 excellent resident recruitment coupons directly in the cheating mall, so that he can recruit 600 excellent-level qualified citizens in one go, but on second thought, maybe 600 excellent-level qualified citizens There are not enough citizens, and the experience of playing games in another world tells Qu Mao that if one krypton ruins his life, he should be stable first.
The elite-level qualifications are tight and they should stabilize first. After all, the qualifications of the purchased and surrendered leaders have not been checked one by one. Maybe there are also leaders with excellent-level qualifications and above.
For example, Sophie Trani, with excellent qualifications, if she is not Maffei Trani's sister, can enter Qu Mao's field of vision, otherwise she must miss it.
Besides, the excellent resident recruitment coupons in the cheating mall are actually very cheap. An excellent resident recruitment coupon can recruit 30 outstanding citizens at a time, and the price is only 150 cheating points, which can be exchanged for every five cheating points on average. A leader with excellent qualifications.
Now in the cheating system, Qu Mao has accumulated 3212 cheating points, which can be exchanged for more than 600 outstanding citizens.
Soon, Qu Mao rushed to the outlying island shipyard that had been repaired with the help of the navy's damaged warship, and Su Yan had already arrived ahead of schedule.
After the two met on the dock of the shipyard, they lamented the magnificence of the shipyard.
The entire shipyard covers an area of about two square kilometers, and four docks have been built along the coast. The docks can berth various types of ships, which are more practical than civilian docks and military docks.
Going deep into the shipyard, Qu Mao and Su Yan discovered that the current level of the shipyard and the technical level of the boatmen stationed there can only build shuttle boats and small fishing boats. Shuttle boats are only 5-7 meters in length and 1-2 meters in length. width, the specifications of small fishing boats are even smaller.
However, shipyards can repair damaged warships, although warships are far larger than the current shipyards can manufacture ships.
Qu Mao found a relatively high-ranking boatman and asked, "If our shipyard wants to build a warship, what conditions do we need?"
The boatman said: "My lord, I am still an intermediate-level boatman. Based on the information I have learned, our shipyard needs to build warships. At least it must be upgraded to a fifth-tier shipyard, and there are boatmen whose skills have reached the master level. The shipyard serves as technical guidance, and under such conditions, we can only build small warships."
Qu Mao knows that the current shipyard is still at level zero, and there is still a long way to go before level five.
It took five months to build the zero-level shipyard alone, and all the conditions were met. It would take two or three years to upgrade and build.
Looking at the number of gold coins in the account of Yicun's territory, Qu Mao decisively gave up the idea of immediately upgrading the shipyard to the first level.
One thing is better, the blueprint of the shipyard that Lai Dima sold to Qu Mao is the same as the refugee shelter. When upgrading the construction, there is no need to look for additional blueprints. As long as the upgrading conditions are met, the leaders can be directly arranged to guard the construction Upgrade, and the upgrade process will not affect the use of the functions of the previous level.
Qu Mao said: "Su Yan, let's arrange for the shipyard to accept the freeman's commission to build ships."
Su Yan nodded and said: "Yes, my lord, the subordinates will make arrangements later!"
