Chapter 870 Issues of principle cannot be violated
Li Fang introduced them to each other. From now on, everyone will be colleagues and must get along well.
"The materials used in this fishing boat are quite good. It can run at the fastest 30 knots, but generally it can run at 20 knots. If it runs faster, the fuel consumption will double."
The engineer said, his surname is Liu, he will no longer be an engineer, but his maintenance master here, Master Liu.
"The speed you're talking about is equivalent to how many yards a car has?"
The other party asked. He didn't know much about this industry and didn't know their professional terms.
"20 knots is equivalent to thirty kilometers per hour, and 30 knots is more than 40 kilometers per hour. However, this also depends on whether it is with the current or against the current. If it is going downstream, the speed can be increased. If it is going against the current, the speed will be higher.
Maybe even slower."
Captain Xu explained that this is the speed of fishing boats. Whether it is a large cargo ship or a small fishing boat, except for speedboats, it is basically this speed.
The reason for this is that the cargo ship's draft is too deep, so it encounters great resistance. Even if it wants to go fast, it cannot go fast, and it is very dangerous to go fast.
"So slow!"
Li Fang was a little speechless. This speed was a bit too slow, just like driving a classic car.
"It's not slow anymore. The main reason is that the engine power can't keep up. If we can have a better engine with enough horsepower, the speed may be improved a little."
Master Liu said, this is not because their fishing boats are not good, all the fishing boats and cargo ships in the world are at this speed.
No wonder Captain Xu felt that time was a bit rushed. At this speed, what could he do in more than a month? He would probably only be able to travel back and forth, and there would be no time for fishing at all.
"I have a route that can keep fishing boats in downstream waters, so that the speed can be improved."
Captain Xu said, but he didn't dare to drive too fast. Racing a boat in the sea was more dangerous than racing on the road.
If the boat accidentally capsizes, everyone will die.
"Since the horsepower is not enough, if I add a little more horsepower to the fishing boat, will the speed of the fishing boat be faster?"
Li Fang asked. He is an immortal cultivator and a master of weapon refining. His abilities are naturally not comparable to those of Master Liu.
"Boss, we don't have this ability. It's not just us, no one has this ability."
Master Liu said that Li Fang wanted to carry out modifications, but he had to admit that he was too amateurish.
Li Fang didn't say anything. He had to study first to see how he could increase the horsepower of the fishing boat and make it go faster.
Then all the workers arrived, all experienced workers, not a single novice.
"Boss, before we go to sea, we have to prepare all the supplies. We need to eat, drink, and have enough food along the way. We also need to prepare some medicines. If conditions permit, it is better to bring an accompanying doctor."
"In addition, Master Liu has made a list. Some fragile parts of the fishing boat must also be prepared. Finally, there are necessities such as gasoline. Don't leave anything behind."
Captain Xu began to explain that he was very experienced and would ensure that he would not miss any necessities.
Then all the workers are called for a meeting. On this fishing boat, the captain is equivalent to the boss of the factory and the general manager of the company.
Li Fang only needs to be a hands-off shopkeeper and leave everything to him.
Of course, he had to pay. Preparing these supplies required money, so he took out another million.
The investment in this series, excluding the seafood breeding base, and this fishing boat alone is almost 10 million.
"Give everyone another three days to rest. We will officially go to sea in three days."
Captain Xu finally said, and then he found Li Fang again, because there were still some things to do before going to sea.
Not to mention the exact date to set off, at least before setting off, we have to prepare three animals to pay homage to the Dragon King.
This is a new ship for them, and it is the first time they have set foot on the sea. They only want good luck for no other reason.
Li Fang agreed. Since it was a rule, he had to follow it.
"Boss, someone is looking for you."
Uncle Hai brought a middle-aged man over. He really has a wide range of contacts and knows everyone.
Li Fang looked at this person. He was a little confused. He didn't know what this person did.
"Boss, I heard that you are going to sea recently, and it is also a long voyage. I wonder if it would be convenient for you to help me take some people out."
"I won't let my boss help me in vain. One person is worth 50,000 yuan, so why are there 50 people?"
The middle-aged man said that he had made it very clear that he wanted Li Fa to cooperate with him in smuggling.
"You have found the wrong person. I am doing serious business here."
Li Fang refused directly. He thought there was nothing wrong with his brain. Will their life be bad now? Do they need to leave their hometown?
"Boss, don't refuse in a hurry. If you think the price is not suitable, we can discuss it again."
The middle-aged man is unwilling to give up, mainly because he can't find a fishing boat to go on a long voyage, otherwise he won't find a new partner.
"This is not a matter of price, but a matter of principle. I can't help you with this. Please leave quickly, otherwise I will call the police later and you will not be able to leave."
Li Fang was about to get angry. Anyway, he would never be a helper.
The middle-aged man was helpless. He didn't expect Li Fang to be so inexperienced, leaving him with no choice.
Captain Xu and the others expressed admiration. They had met bosses who took people along for the ride before. For them, it was a way to make extra money, but it was not a good thing after all.
Li Fang returned to his seafood breeding base and continued to work. There was a captain managing the fishing boat, so he could be a hands-off shopkeeper with peace of mind.
"Let these seafood grow until the end of the year. I believe there will be unexpected harvests by then."
Li Fang secretly thought, by the way, he asked Octopus to look after the backyard. Besides, this guy is also a foodie, so he can't be allowed to guard and steal here.
After so many days, Alice and her team have lost their patience.
"Holy Girl, why don't we just take action directly and control all the executives of their company, so that this cosmetics company will be ours."
The archbishop couldn't help but said that they had been here for so many days, and after so many days of fear, it was time to take action.
Alice also lost her patience. If she kept waiting like this, she didn't know how long it would take.
"Don't act rashly yet. I will visit them tomorrow. If we can cooperate well, then there is no need to take action."
Alice said, she still didn't want to use force or attract other people's attention.
What they don't know is that they are ready to make a move here, but the person who is secretly watching them is also ready to make a move.
Several masters from the Immortal Cultivation Sect gathered together, and everyone immediately began to discuss how to deal with them.
"We have investigated clearly. They have a very strong lineup. There are four archbishops, who are comparable to four masters in the Golden Core realm, and there are more than ten bishops."
"So what? If we join forces together, are we still afraid of them?"
"Then let's do it. We must not let them continue to be so arrogant and treat us as their back garden."
The old Taoist priest and several other golden elixir masters reached an agreement, and everyone decided to take action tonight to give them a little clue and let them know what would happen if they came to the east.
