"There will be more!"
Zhang Heng muttered to himself. It was his first time piloting a mining ship on an expedition to the open sea, and he had the idea of verifying it. Now that it had been verified, the plan in his heart could be carried out."Although it's a mining starship, why can't it be a part-time salvager?”
Due to the severe damage of the ship, the ability that could be used at the moment was limited. The limitation came from the depths of the seabed.
It did not include the things on the surface of the seabed.
Just like some sunken ships, as long as they were not more than 1000 meters deep and were within the detection depth of the scanner, they could be salvaged.
The working principle of the mining ship was not the usual drilling and mining. Instead, it used projection and then point-to-point transmission mode.
" The ocean is a huge treasure trove. Not to mention the rich mineral resources buried deep under the seabed, there are countless sunken ships that transport gold and silver during the age of navigation.”
Zhang Heng had a look of desire on his face, but he had to suppress it."It's a pity that many sunken ships are too deep. Those that are shallow have long been salvaged.”
He shook his head hard to get rid of this thought."We can't leave the foundation at the end. Our main business is still seabed mineral resources. As for sinking ships, let fate take its course.”
4.48 million yuan!
The biggest pot of gold in one's life had already laid the foundation for the future.
On the other hand, he was stubborn. This time, he sold carbon steel to his teacher to call for help in order to get in touch with China Shipyard Corporation.
There were many reasons!
One of the reasons was that China Ship was a military enterprise. As long as there was good stuff, it did not matter where it came from.
Of course, there was no lack of suspicion. It was inevitable to investigate him secretly.
However, he was certain that he would not be able to find anything. This was an unsolved loophole, and he had plenty of time to fix it.
Other than that!
The biggest reason was that such high-quality carbon steel could not be sold at a high price and could be bought in one go. Other than military enterprises, there was nothing else.
The night was silent!
The next morning.
"Teleport!"
Zhang Heng sneaked into the old mansion's courtyard and gave the order decisively. When he reappeared, he was already in the captain's cabin of the mining ship."How much of the remaining 80 tons of carbon steel, as well as the impurities from processing and refining, can be repaired?”
The mining ship could be repaired using metal. This intelligence level had told him long ago.
800 tons of iron ore and 200 tons of coal!
A total of 430 tons of carbon steel were processed and refined. He only sold 350 tons and kept 80 tons to repair the mining ship.
"Captain, the mining ship is currently 85% damaged. Due to the single use of carbon steel, it can barely be used to repair the hull. The total progress is less than 1%!”
"Aren't there still impurities from the iron ore?”Zhang Heng's heart sank when he heard this conclusion.
"Because the processing cabin is seriously damaged, it is currently not enough to carry out secondary purification and processing of the impurities!”
"Alright then!"
Zhang Heng seemed to understand what was going on. It was all common sense."In that case, I'll just barely repair the hull.”
"Understood!"
The mining ship's intelligent program received the command and reminded him,""Captain, the hull has been repaired and can now reach 15% of its original speed!”
"Fifteen percent? 230 knots?" Zhang Heng was delighted to hear that.
"Yes, the maximum speed can reach 230 knots!”
The AI program gave an affirmative answer and automatically popped up a virtual screen, showing the overall situation of the mining ship. There were a few places marked in red circles: "After calculation, the initial repair of the hull with carbon steel requires 1300 tons!”
"How fast can the ship reach after the initial repair of the hull?”Zhang Heng knew that the ship's speed was affected by the hull's leakage.
"The carbon steel is just a substitute. It is only used to temporarily block the gap. When all the gaps in the hull are blocked, it can reach a maximum of 300 knots!”
"80 tons can increase the strength by 30 knots, so why is it only 70 knots after adding 1200 tons?”Zhang Heng wanted to give himself two ears after asking the question. It was such a stupid question.
"Use carbon steel to temporarily repair it. If the speed exceeds 300, the repaired carbon steel will fall off during high-speed sailing!”The AI program continued to explain.
"Repair!"
Zhang Heng felt guilty about the question he had just asked."At 230 knots, head for the sea area from yesterday!”
"Receiving orders!"
"Isn't it just 1300 tons of carbon steel? I've dug enough this time!"
Zhang Heng had already decided that repairing the mining ship was an urgent task, especially for the core parts. He had already thought of the order of repair in his mind.
