Great warships

Chapter 427

"Little baby, come, let the godmother take a look." In the shipyard guest house, Vitalia picked up the baby in her arms.

Although Qin Tao has a house in the family courtyard and Qin Baoshan has a small courtyard, they are not as comfortable as the guest house. Therefore, every time Zhao Ling comes back, she directly lives in the guest house. This time with her children, she lives directly. came in.

Of course, Vitalia was also accommodated in the guest house, next to Zhao Ling's room.

At this time, Vitalia was very happy holding the baby.

The nanny that Zhao Ling brought back was busy cleaning up the room, and Zhao Ling looked at Vitalia with a smile on her face: "Weina, I heard that you were frightened at Magang."

"Where, at that time, it was possible to drive over directly, but Qin said that he would stay and let the situation escalate. Later, he was satisfied. They compensated us a lot of money." Speaking of this, Vitalia is very Excited, but later, I went to tease the children again.

"It's nice to have a baby."

"Vitalia, it's time for you to find a man to marry."

"I think so too, but you know the situation in our circle. Even if it's marriage, it's just multiple documents. I don't know whose bed I'll sleep in. It's better to be a man from the east. By the way, the child is called what name?"

"Qin Haitao."

"This name is not domineering enough." Vitalia shook her head: "He should be called Wang. The rules here seem to require that the Chinese characters in the middle cannot be moved. In that case, how about calling him Qin Haiwang?"

"King of the sea, what do you think? From now on, we will be the king of the sea!" Vitalia hugged Qin Haitao and said in not very fluent Chinese: "Did you see that? He smiled, smiled, which means he also likes this name."

At the door, Qin Tao stood there, the muscles on his cheeks twitching.

Neptune?How can you come up with such a name?You probably don't know that the name is ambiguous, do you?
"You're back?" Zhao Ling raised her head and saw Qin Tao, with a smile on her face.

"Well, I'm back." Qin Tao said: "I originally planned to let Zhengyang pick you up, but I didn't expect you to come so early."

"Well, this year's scientific research project is not very intense. Anyway, it's useless for us to be anxious. We have to wait for the technological breakthroughs of our brothers, so we have plenty of time." Zhao Ling said: "By the way, Wei Na named the child Haiwang, you feel…"

(A reader earlier complained about it early. I remember that I was pregnant during the last Spring Festival, right? I wrote it in the autumn of the second year. Isn’t it appropriate to conceive in October like this? Now the child is about three or four months old Can move back and forth.)
The muscles on Qin Tao's face twitched again.

"Qin, what do you think of this name?" Vitalia walked over with the child in her arms and asked Qin Tao.

"No, Neptune is a helicopter, and I'm a shipbuilder." Qin Tao directly vetoed it.

"Okay." During this period of time, Vitalia was constantly being denied by Qin Tao, and she was used to it.

"Xiao Ling, Wei Na, here, I'll give you something delicious." Qin Tao took out a paper bag from his pocket and handed it to Zhao Ling.

Zhao Ling opened the paper bag, and there were small milky white pieces inside, so she happily picked up one piece, first put it in Vitalia's mouth, and then put another piece in her own mouth.

"What is this? Sugar?" Vitalia chewed the thing in her mouth, only feeling very special, the more she chewed, the stronger she became.

"Today is the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month. Our place is Xiaonian. In our place, we need to eat this kind of candy. 23, Tanggua sticky." Zhao Ling said, with the expression on her face like a child.

Vitalia nodded, and then, after taking a puff, a bubble the size of a broad bean was actually blown out: "It seems to be very similar to our bubble gum."

However, no matter how much you chew, the bubble gum won't melt, and the piece of candy in your mouth becomes smaller the more you chew.Finally disappeared.

"Dinglingling!" The phone rang, the nanny answered the phone, hummed a few times, and then said to everyone: "Aunt Cao said that she will make dumplings at home in the evening, and bring them to us when they are finished."

"No, let's go back." Qin Tao said.

After all, this place belongs to the south, there is no harsh cold current from Siberia, it is just a little damp and cold.

The Qin family's yard became lively.

Vitalia also personally started making dumplings. This is not the first time she has done this kind of work, and the dumplings she made look good.

Cao Yuru was rolling the skin beside him, busy cooking and talking to everyone. After seeing Qin Tao coming, they started chatting about business.

"Our garment factory has completed preparations for expanding production, and now we are waiting for the sales of the first batch of goods. If the sales are good, we will start full production."

"Don't worry, you can't go wrong. For the people there, they can skip meals, but they can't wear suits. Our eight wolves men's clothing will definitely be very popular in Rainbow Country."

"Yes, I'd rather eat instant noodles all at once than wear a suit." Zhao Ling added from the side.

Qin Tao shook his head, his daughter-in-law was wrong.

"No, Xiaoling, you don't know the situation there. For them, instant noodles are a delicacy. Those who can eat instant noodles are rich people."

Zhao Ling was stunned for a while.

crunch!The door opened.

"Old Qin, quickly close the door, and don't let the air conditioner in." Cao Yuru hurriedly greeted Qin Baoshan.

Qin Baoshan immediately closed the door swiftly, walked aside, sat on the mahogany chair, and picked up the newspaper beside him.

"Old Qin, don't just sit around there, go, fill the pot with water, put it on the gas stove, and we will be able to make dumplings soon."

Qin Baoshan could only stand up.

"Aunt Cao, let me go." The nanny said enthusiastically.

"No, as long as you take care of Haitao, you don't need to worry about the rest."

Looking at his father's back, Qin Tao felt emotional. In the past few years, his father has changed a lot. In the past, his father would only eat when the rice was served on the table and the chopsticks were placed on the bowl. Now, unexpectedly Will you turn on the gas stove?

Rare.

Probably for the sake of his grandson?

The room was very lively, and it didn't take long for the steaming dumplings to come out of the pot.

"What is this for?" Vitalia looked at Cao Yuru curiously, and saw that she respectfully put a dumpling into a bowl and placed it next to the stove, clasped her hands together, and muttered something.

"Make an offering to the Stove Lord."

"Stove Lord?"

"Well, our oriental folk customs."

Vitalia's eyes widened.

At this moment, the voice of Big Brother sounded in the room.

Qin Tao pressed the answer button and put it to his ear, and then his expression changed.

"Really, don't come early, don't come late, why come at this time! Let them come to Mingzhou Shipyard!"

"What's the situation?" Zhao Ling looked at Qin Tao's displeasure and asked worriedly.

"Weina, we have to work tomorrow to receive the third door-to-door salesman of the aircraft carrier."

Vitalia nodded: "Okay, where did they come from?"

"Ermao, Black Sea Shipyard."

Qin Tao was overjoyed and waited on the sidelines, finally the time came!

On the 24th of the twelfth lunar month, Makarov and Asnayev set foot on the land of the East again and came to the Mingzhou Shipyard.

"Everyone, welcome to Mingzhou. I'm very sorry to let you go to Magang for nothing." In the warm conference room of the guest house, Qin Tao expressed his apology to the guests.

"We are to blame for this matter. We did not consider your customs. It is not appropriate to come here on your most important festival. However, it is precisely because of this that we can finally confirm that Chuanglv Company and Mingzhou The group is connected. We are relieved."

Asnayev looked at Vitalia beside Qin Tao with a smile on his face.

Green Green, which appeared in Magang, attracted the attention of the world before it opened. Afterwards, it shocked people with the high compensation. At that time, Makarov wanted to come here to sell. The conditions of Green Green , it is simply specially formulated for them.

However, Asnayev did not act immediately, but observed silently, and did not come until the company was closed for the New Year, and then he was brought here.

Sure enough, Vitalia, the person in charge of Chuanglv Company, was by Qin Tao's side, which finally reassured him.

"Yes, President Qin, we think it's most appropriate to sell Varyag to you." Makarov said, "If it can be reborn by blocking the market at sea, it can be considered a good home. "

Regret, really regret, why was the price so high in the first place?Otherwise, I can be Ah San's aircraft carrier.

However, it didn't matter what Makarov said at the time, the government needed to make a decision. When the government saw Ah San coming to the door, they thought it was a fat sheep and had to be slaughtered severely.

The results of it?
Ah San found Ermao Shizi opened his mouth wide and said nothing.

I can no longer find a second buyer, so I can only treat it as scrap iron. Compared with selling scrap iron after dismantling, it is already very good as a sea blockade.

"Currently, we already have sales from France and the United States. Whether your Varyag is suitable for us will have to go through our careful research." Vitalia said.

Everyone in the conference room can speak Russian, so they communicated directly in Russian.

At this moment, upon hearing Vitalia's words, Makarov's expression turned ugly again.

"The United States also sold it to you?"

"That's right, it's the aircraft carrier that the United States has just retired." Vitalia said, "We plan to make a decision after the Chinese New Year, and your arrival is really timely. How much do you plan to sell for this aircraft carrier?"

Qin Tao has a smile on his face, Vitalia is indeed a veteran in business!
"We plan to sell for $5000 million."

"5000 million? This is impossible. The prices given by the other two customers are much lower than yours." Vitalia said, "Although we used to live under the same banner, now, since we are talking about For business, you have to talk about it according to business matters. Your aircraft carrier is considered expensive if it exceeds 500 million."

If it was based on the price of scrap iron, it would indeed not be able to sell for a few million, but Makarov still couldn't accept Vitalia's words of 500 million.

"The price is too low, and it is unacceptable in our country." Makarov felt a little uncomfortable.

"Then stay in your shipyard and continue to rust. In the future, 200 million may not be sold." Vitalia's mouth is really powerful.

So, the meeting was so cold.

"Mr. Qin, you have visited Varyag a few times. You should know that it is a powerful aircraft carrier that once placed our hopes on it." Makarov looked at Qin Tao: "Now, we I hope it has a good home, and please offer a suitable price."

The person on the opposite side had white hair and was travel-stained. At this moment, he looked extremely old.

"Mr. Makarov, for your sake, we can raise the price, but 2000 million is the highest price we can offer." Qin Tao said: "This is also our sincerity, if you agree to this price , then trade immediately, if you disagree, then we can only say sorry."

Vitalia looked at Qin Tao in surprise, wondering why the black-hearted Qin Tao suddenly changed his temper this time, and showed the demeanor of extorting the 880 US dollars!
The old man Makarov is pitiful enough, and Vitalia has also heard about the Black Sea Shipyard, but, as a businessman, she absolutely cannot show any compassion.

In business is business.

"Okay, Mr. Qin, since you have already given the correct words, then we will go back and report to the superiors according to the amount of 2000 million. If the superiors can approve, then we will trade immediately." Asnayev said.

"Okay, then wait for your good news." Qin Tao stood up and shook hands with the other party.

Makarov also stood up, his heart was heavy, and he looked out through the window.

The busy slipways, docks, and various ships are constantly being built. This scene is so familiar!Their Black Sea shipyard used to be such a busy scene.

What now?
At this moment, a warship attracted his attention.The hull line is very beautiful, and the direction of the waterline is retracted, forming a beautiful stealth design.

"Mr. Makarov, what are you looking at?" Qin Tao asked curiously, and when he followed his gaze, a smile appeared on Qin Tao's face: "The ones being produced over there are the new generation of our navy. Frigate."

There is no need to cover up this thing. Submarines that need to be kept secret are all produced in closed workshops, and satellites in outer space cannot be seen.

The 054 frigate can be seen casually. After all, it is not only used by itself, but also sold out a batch.

"Frigate? According to my visual inspection, its displacement is close to [-] tons, right?" Makarov asked.

"Yes."

Makarov's eyes were full of doubts: "Isn't the displacement of your domestic No. 112 destroyer also about [-] tons?"

Why is that kind called a destroyer, and this kind is called a frigate?
"There are many differences. For example, this kind of frigate is powered by four diesel engines. The maximum speed is only 25 knots. The speed of the destroyer can exceed [-] knots. The weapon configuration is also different. If you are interested, I will ask someone to guide you Go see."

"Can I go and see?"

"Of course, Zhengyang, take Mr. Makarov to the slipway and take a look. Pay attention, protect Mr. Makarov's safety, don't get on the scaffolding, and don't fall off."

"Yes." Xu Zhengyang immediately accepted the order.

Makarov left excitedly.

"Vitalia, do you want to go and have a look too? I'm afraid that Zhengyang won't be able to see him, this old man wants to climb up to take a look when he sees a warship."

Hearing what Qin Tao said, Vitalia didn't hesitate: "Of course, if he dares to do dangerous things, I'll tell him and the deal will be cancelled."

Vitalia also left, and there were only two people left in the conference room.

"Mr. Asnayev, we can talk again." Qin Tao looked at the people who stayed behind: "How much activity funds do you need?"

Asnayev was suddenly excited.

"If it is sold at the price we planned for 5000 million, then there is no need for any activity funds, but now, if you want to buy it for 2000 million, you need at least 500 million."

Is 500 million activity funds enough?Qin Tao looked at Asnayev: "I will give you 1000 million, all of which will be deposited in the account of the Moscow International Commercial Bank. I don't want any problems. Moreover, in order to make the modification smooth, we hope to get a full set of design drawings. "

"Okay, I will definitely arrange this deal properly." Asnayev nodded.

The most important transaction was thus opened. After Qin Tao's foreshadowing, Ermao came to the door twice, which shows that many people in their government have already acquiesced.

However, Qin Tao knows that these expenses are nothing, this is just the beginning, and there will be various difficulties waiting for them if this transaction goes on.

In the worst case, just use money to pave the way. 7000 million is already lying in the accounts of Chuanglv Company in Magang.
Qin Tao looked outside.

On the berth, the 054 frigate under construction is so eye-catching, especially when looking down from space, you can see the reserved position of the vertical launcher in front of it, and you can feel the power of this warship even more.

However, this is just the beginning. The scenery of this 054 warship will soon be replaced by a warship with a four-sided phased array radar. In the future, larger warships will be built in the dock here, including Carrier!
Makarov has come to 054.

In the past, he would not have looked at this kind of warship of thousands of tons at all, because their Black Sea Shipyard built aircraft carriers, but now, the modern warship in front of him made him feel a lot of emotion.

Since the collapse of the Red Empire, neither Da Mao nor Er Mao has ever built a brand new warship, and here, advanced warships follow one after another.

051C is a professional air defense destroyer, but because it is a direct copy of the land-based S-300, it will be sneered at by people, but this one in front of me is different. The parts are completely provided by the Orientals themselves. This magnificent warship represents the arrival of a new era.

Makarov was envious.

"Your Mingzhou Group is really amazing." Makarov said with emotion, and planned to climb the scaffolding.

"Sorry, you can't go up."

"As long as you go up one step, our transaction will be cancelled."

Sure enough, Vitalia's words worked.

Makarov could only stay where he was, looking up at the warship.

"I heard that it uses four diesel engines as power?"

"That's right, this is our original Chai-Chai combination, and the power is transmitted to the propeller after the car is merged."

"There are still anti-aircraft missiles hanging in front?"

"That's right, vertical launch can better face maritime threats, which is the trend of the future."

Makarov was left with nothing but envy.

That night, after having dinner at the Mingzhou Shipyard, Makarov finally reluctantly left.

"Mr. Makarov, if you like this place, you are welcome to live here, or you can stay here, just like Azar and the others."

Qin Tao sent out an invitation.

Makarov shook his head: "I'm too old to work anymore, and I don't want to leave the shipyard where I have worked all my life."

After speaking, he opened the car door and sat in.

The 26th of the twelfth lunar month.

As the Chinese New Year gets closer, the taste of the new year is getting stronger and stronger. There are crackling firecrackers outside and the smell of sulfur in the air.

Vitalia held a piece of incense in her hand, put it near her mouth and blew it, and then tentatively stretched it towards the two-footed twister placed on the ground, but after stretching it twice, the twister was not released. lit.

At this moment, Qin Tao came over: "Give it to me!"

Vitalia watched in surprise as Qin Tao took the Erkijiao placed on the ground in his hand, and then went to take the incense with the other hand, facing the twister.

Nianzi sizzled and burned, and Vitalia subconsciously took two steps back, watching Qin Tao stretch out his hand holding Er Tijiao.

Boom, boom!
The gunpowder of the second kick pushed the contents inside, first jumped to the ground, and after hitting the ground, it was rebounded into the sky and exploded in the sky.

Vitalia's face was full of envy: "Qin, you are so brave!"

"China is one of the four ancient civilizations, and gunpowder is one of the inventions. However, we use gunpowder to make firecrackers, and foreigners use gunpowder to make weapons. As a result, we were opened up by our own invention." Qin Tao said, "Now, we have advanced weapons."

In fact, this is not true. After the gunpowder was available, the country was of course also angry. When Zhu Yuanzhang conquered the world, the most elite Guan Ning cavalry used the three-eyed firecracker. The braided soldiers in the late Ming and early Qing also used it. firearm.

However, due to the inadequacy of metallurgy and other technologies, the power of firearms is incomparable with Western ones.The technology of gunpowder is also gradually falling behind.

If you fall behind, you will be beaten.

In the house, Zhao Ling hugged Haiyang and looked out through the window: "Yangyang, did you see that? Your father and your godmother are setting off firecrackers. Our Haiyang will be one year older soon."

While talking, two more people came in from outside. Seeing the familiar figure, Zhao Ling was taken aback for a while, and then smiled again: "Hai Hai, did you see that? Both grandma and grandpa are here."

At this time, Qin Tao was planning to release the second one. He had a rare leisure time. Hearing the sound of footsteps behind him, Qin Tao yelled: "People behind are careful, I'm going to fire the cannon."

"It's not enough to play like this, it's enough to connect three together." A voice came from behind.

Qin Tao turned his head to look over, and immediately froze: "Dad, Mom, why are you here?"

This is illogical. Even if the father-in-law and mother-in-law are very concerned about their grandson, they have never heard of a son-in-law coming to the house during the Chinese New Year.
"You boy, what are you talking about? We can't come?" Wu Shengli's eyes widened.

Zhao Xiu'e gave her husband a hand: "Old Wu, don't talk to Taozi like that, Taozi, your father is like this, we are passing by this time, to see my grandson, we will leave tomorrow."
