Chapter 94 The Governor's Shock!
(I can update it if I am still missing 9 monthly tickets! Please give me a monthly ticket~)
Governor's Office.
In the office.
"Li Lin, is there anything you want to come to me?" Forrest looked at Li Lin in front of him and asked with a smile.
In his eyes, the other party was a boy who was scattered. Last time he took the other party 500,000 pounds, he was very satisfied with this Chinese!
"That's right. Some friends and I want to set up a shipbuilding company in Singapore, so I'll discuss it with you. You are the governor of Singapore Singapore. If you have one of our shareholders, I believe our shipbuilding company will definitely become famous in the future. I wonder what you think?" Li Lin said.
Forrest was slightly surprised after hearing this.
Open a shipbuilding company?
If you can open a shipbuilding company, you will definitely need a lot of financial resources.
He also understood that Li Lin wanted to show his kindness, after all, he was the leader here, and if he gave him the benefits, the other party's company would definitely be green all the way.
"I wonder how big the dock of your shipbuilding company is?" Forrest asked curiously.
"I plan to build a 20,000-ton dock!" Li Lin said.
This cannot be concealed, so it is better to open the skylight and say something bright.
"What? A 20,000-ton dock?" Forrest was shocked. He didn't think Li Lin could have this dock with a capacity to invest 20,000 tons!
"This is a large dock, is it a big investment? Do you have so much money?"
In this era, ships that can build tens of thousands of tons of water displacement are considered large docks.
"Yes, the investment is very large! Fortunately, I have met many friends, including many wealthy businessmen. The shipbuilding industry is booming now, so we also want to enter this industry to try it out." Li Lin said half-truely.
"Okay, I'm of course very welcome to open a shipbuilding company in Singapore, and it can increase a lot of taxes. I wonder how much you asked me to invest in order to invest?" Forrest asked with his eyes narrowed.
The nature of starting a shipbuilding company is different from that of opening a weapon company.
After all, these days, not only are there in Britain, but there are many private shipbuilding companies in other places.
The control is not as strict as opening a weapon company!
"How can we let you pay for the shares? As long as you invest in the shares with honor, we can give you 5% of the shares." Li Lin said.
This was also what he thought. He planned to give Forrest a 5% stake and Daniel and Patrick a 3% stake each.
"5%? Is it a little less?" Forrest frowned.
He was not very interested in the Li weapon company that Li Lin had established before, because he thought it was hard to say whether the other party's weapons could be sold if they were produced.
But he is very interested in this 20,000-ton dock shipbuilding company. The shipbuilding industry is indeed very profitable now!
Li Lin still wanted to gain a better position after listening to the other party’s words?
To be honest, if he hadn't just arrived at Singapore and took the initiative to give the other party some shares, if he had waited for his development for a few years, hehe, there wouldn't be such a good thing as today for the other party!
"Governor, I don't have the final say in this shipbuilding company alone. There are more than a dozen major shareholders, and I am already trying to resist the controversy for giving you 5% of the shares. If you want more, to be honest, other shareholders may not agree. Maybe they will choose to build a shipbuilding company in other places." Li Lin said lightly. As for whether there are really more than a dozen major shareholders to "operate" a little at that time.
His meaning is very obvious. If you don’t keep me here, you will have a place to keep me!
Private shipbuilding companies can be established in many places these days, but they still need to go out with some benefits.
"Actually, some of our shareholders planned to consider China and the United States at the beginning." Li Lin added.
Li Lin's words made Forrest angry, and the other party threatened him!
"Hahaha... I'm just kidding. I can get 5% of the shares even if I invest in a reputation. I'm very satisfied with this. Don't worry about this. Which harbor do you want to choose to build a dock, I'll give it to you in minutes." Forrest finally agreed.
It’s not too much to acquire 5% of the shares for no reason!
After all, it is a 20,000-ton dock.
If business starts, he will pay a lot of dividends.
"Okay, thank you then."
After leaving the Governor's Mansion, Li Lin visited Daniel again. The other party originally wanted to beat more, but Li Lin moved out of the Governor only 5%, so Daniel agreed.
In the end, Patrick spoke very well and delayed it many times before accepting Li Lin's 3% stake.
A month later, Li Lin selected a deep-water harbor, 15 kilometers away from the port.
He also registered a company called [Li Shipbuilding Company]
“Start the dock construction!”
He used the reward he received last time directly.
"Hmm? No movement?"
Half an hour passed and no one showed up.
but……
At this moment, there was movement in the distance.
Hundreds of people wearing worker clothes appeared.
"It's really here!"
Next, more and more people appeared.
Start hooking up the tent and preparing for the construction.
Early the next morning, I came here and found that there were a lot of building materials and some equipment here. The number of workers exceeded 3,000.
"It is worthy of being a system production, with no loopholes!"
Next, the dock began to be built.
There is another good news, that is, Li Lin’s Browning M2HB heavy machine gun production line has been installed and trial production has begun.
This production line can produce up to 5,000 machine guns per month, and if it is bulleted, it will produce 1 million bullets per month.
"The things are almost the same here, and I can finally go back to Liverpool." Li Lin came here for more than half a year, but fortunately, Auston and others took care of him there, and nothing major happened.
Three days later, Li Lin hurriedly took a boat back to Liverpool before he could see the machine gun test.
A week later.
Entering the spring of 1892.
"I didn't expect that I spent my second year in a foreign country on a steamer." Li Lin stood on the deck, blew the sea breeze, feeling a little moved.
On the boat, Li Lin secretly practiced the flying knife technique when he was fine.
He found that he could condense a flying knife of one and a half inches long (5 cm long), and could fire up to 50 meters!
This flying knife condensed from spiritual power is terrifyingly powerful and can cut off the steel four or five centimeters later!
"It's a pity that I've activated 100 times in total, and my spiritual power will be consumed. If I have no choice, use it less." Li Lin said in his heart.
However, he tried it. If he attached his spiritual power to some hidden weapons, he would just fire thousands of times and then consume it.
This is the difference!
In a flash, more than a month has passed.
Finally, Li Lin boarded Liverpool's port.
As soon as I got off the boat, I saw Li Er hurriedly looking for him.
Chapter completed!
