Alaska Gold Rush

Chapter 211
There is no doubt that Dawson at this moment is like picking up a sour lemon, and his heart is full of mixed feelings.

Although he already knew that Chen Ruobai, a rookie, had a unique talent in gold panning, he also knew that Chen Ruobai had achieved a series of successes.But looking at it now, I still underestimated Chen Ruobai's success.

If Chen Ruobai only added excavators and bulldozers, and only wanted to increase the size of the ore washing machine, then there is actually no problem.The main reason is that his previous mechanical skills were indeed at the entry-level level, which was not worth mentioning among the gold diggers.

But now it's different, this guy has also achieved great success in the field of attracting money, which makes people feel sore.

Gold-absorbing boat, this bastard actually wants to order a gold-absorbing boat, which can explain a lot of problems.

Heyman ignored Dawson's sourness, he said to Chen Ruobai, "On the west coast, on the east coast, you will see some shipyards. Freighters, fishing boats, or yachts, you can order them there."

Dawson poured cold water on it and said, "The industry has been transferred long ago, and the competitiveness of our manufacturing industry has dropped too much. Look at our auto industry, Detroit has gone bankrupt, and that was the base camp of our auto manufacturing industry!"

"We're talking about shipbuilding now, not the car industry!" Heyman said angrily, "Old guy, don't interrupt us to discuss business at this time!"

Dawson shrugged and spit, "Well, the shipbuilding industry looks pretty good, I think it's just the warships left now. Yachts, you can think of Chris-Craft, Master Craft, Verwins, a lot of small fishing For those flybridge yachts, we will import Azimut from Italy, Fairline from England, and the French Beneteau is also very good.”

"We are talking about fishing boats and gold-absorbing boats. We are not talking about yachts!" After complaining about Dawson, Heyman said to Chen Ruobai, "If you want to buy a yacht, I recommend European yachts. The yacht culture comes from them." Origin, they have a lot of yacht brands that are over 100 years old.”

Chen Ruobai just smiled, probably able to understand some thoughts of Heyman and Dawson.

Dawson didn't continue to interrupt, but just listened quietly. He also knew that if it was just a gold boat, there was really no need to import it.The main reason is that gold-absorbing ships need to be customized, and small shipyards can complete such orders.

Haiman looked at Chen Ruobai and asked, "The displacement of your boat will be within [-] tons, right? I think [-] tons is appropriate. You only need to work offshore, and what you need is a flat-bottomed boat with a shallow draft."

Seeing Chen Ruobai nodded, Haiman continued, "Your ship doesn't need a particularly large excavator, nor does it need a large ore washing machine, so [-] tons or [-] tons is completely enough, and we can control the draft. Within a meter."

Dawson suddenly said, "My Arno is 14 meters long, [-] meters wide, and has a draft of [-] meter. If it is a flat-bottomed boat, it must be longer."

"Ten meters is not enough, it can't even hold an excavator and a mining washing machine." Heyman complained, "So you don't have to worry, Robert's gold-absorbing boat will be very bad, it is just a work boat, and there is a huge difference from a yacht. "

This is also true, whether it is a gold suction boat or a fishing boat, they do not pursue beauty, comfort, etc., and that is not the most important thing.And the cost of these ships is not cheap, and they also pursue efficiency.

Chen Ruobai also put forward his own idea at this time, "I want to arrange a detection radar, I don't want to hit the rocks on the bottom of the sea."

Heyman joked, "It's really necessary. Your ship can only work offshore, and you really need radar."

Chen Ruobai smiled and asked again, "If I pretend to be a few more underwater cameras, do you think they can do this?"

"Of course no problem. If your budget is sufficient, they can even prepare underwater robots for you." Heyman complained, "But I don't think you need to follow the underwater camera, its viewing range is very small, in the offshore area The energy progress of seawater is too low."

Chen Ruobai said nonchalantly, "I understand that with the radar, there seems to be no need for an underwater camera. But my budget is sufficient, and I can definitely spend this amount of money."

This is naturally a joke, mainly for work.The sea water near the sea is turbid and the energy progress is low, so use strong light, which can also increase some energy progress underwater, allowing Chen Ruobai to observe and direct better.

Even if he is not on board, the captain can direct the divers to work better.

Heyman said directly at this time, "You don't need to mention so much now. What you need now is to build the overall frame of the gold-absorbing boat. We build gold-absorbing boats and fishing boats. A lot of equipment can be installed and supplemented later. It is enough for you to leave room for modification in advance. This is not a warship, and there is no need to consider electromagnetic compatibility."

"The hull is the most important thing for you, and I don't recommend that you install all the equipment directly at the shipyard." Heyman looked at Chen Ruobai seriously, and said, "You can arrange engineers on the west coast, and you can purchase Good equipment, let them install and debug."

Chen Ruobai seemed to understand, and just asked, "So you mean that in Alaska, I only need the construction of the hull?"

"Yes, but you need to contact the engineer in advance to clarify some of your needs." Heyman said seriously, "Your ship is different from other gold-absorbing ships. You understand what I mean, right?"

This is also a fact, Chen Ruobai's gold-absorbing boat will obviously be more high-end, and it will be more customized.So some things do need to be changed, and the model of other gold-absorbing boats may not be applicable to him.

With Heyman giving some suggestions, this is really helpful to Chen Ruobai, and it can save him a lot of detours,

Although Chen Ruobai also has some understanding of ships, it is not enough because his understanding is superficial.Unlike a guy like Heyman who basically grew up on a boat.

Even if there is a saying that crossing a line is like crossing a mountain, Haiman's experience can indeed bring Chen Ruobai a lot of help.

Heyman was just listening at this moment, this was not his field of expertise.If he is panning for gold, he can talk endlessly, but it is not enough to absorb gold. At this time, it is better not to take the initiative to speak, otherwise it will be ridiculous.

Chen Ruobai hastily opened the laptop and found the folder, "Look here, these are some of my needs."

Heyman came over to take a look, and was immediately a little dumbfounded.

"Are you serious?" Heyman said, pointing to the computer, "Volvo IPS 1200 engine?"

Looking at Chen Ruobai, Haiman said helplessly, "I know you have high expectations for your gold-absorbing boat, but you don't need IPS propulsion devices, and your boat doesn't need to run above twenty knots. You only need four cylinders Small and medium-sized, but considering the load, you can choose a marine medium-speed diesel engine. The single-cylinder power of 195-255kW is completely sufficient. You can choose Deutz, Cummins, fuel-efficient, reliable, and light in weight. From 20KW to 1000KW have."

Chen Ruobai felt that he was a bit too excited, but now that he thought about it, he was a bit too excited. Some of the previous plans were indeed a little unrealistic.

I was too excited, mainly because I was too excited before, so I appeared a little overjoyed.

This is obviously not acceptable, Chen Ruobai needs to reflect on it.For him, the most important thing is practicality, rather than thinking about high-end atmosphere and grades, which are unrealistic things.

For the material of the boat, don't consider any carbon fiber technology, and don't need to consider visual effects and the like.For a gold-absorbing boat, those are flashy things, and there is no need for them to exist at all.

These were Chen Ruobai's feelings after he woke up. Now that he thinks about it, he is still a little flustered. This is the truth.

If it wasn't because he made a lot of money, if it wasn't because the money was absorbed very smoothly, Chen Ruobai would not have taken such a big step.Now he is even thinking about things like either not doing it, or doing it the best way.

These are obviously unrealistic things, which will only increase some of my own burdens, and will only spend money on some unnecessary places.These are obviously unacceptable things, Chen Ruobai needs to be pragmatic.

This is what Chen Ruobai is thinking at the moment, he is seriously discussing with Heyman about the gold-absorbing boat, discussing about removing some unnecessary designs and so on.

Obviously, Heyman is not omnipotent, and some of his proposals were also rejected. After all, Heyman is only the captain of a fishing boat, and he doesn't have a special understanding of some things about attracting money.

But no matter what, this layman can also provide some good ideas, which can give Chen Ruobai a lot of help.

These are also to be admitted, and now Chen Ruobai basically has some plans for his money-absorbing boat.

This is not just talking casually. Now I will list the general plan and requirements, so that I can better communicate with the engineers of the shipyard and finally finalize the design.

This is an extremely critical step, and it is also the first step to truly implement the construction of the gold-absorbing boat.Now that Chen Ruobai has taken the first step, he also needs to hurry up. The sooner the plan is finalized, the sooner he can get his gold-absorbing boat.

You have to hurry up on these things, even if it is not complicated to build a gold-absorbing boat, but you can get more peace of mind if you get it early.

After all, the gold-absorbing season is shorter than the gold rush season, and Chen Ruobai can't waste time.

Seeing that Chen Ruobai and Heyman were discussing enthusiastically, Dawson was just listening.Although he didn't quite understand it, he felt that Chen Ruobai's requirements were very high, which also meant that a large budget was needed.

I can only be more envious, a certain young boy has earned unimaginable wealth in the gold mining industry!
