Chapter 50: Buying a Ship

If it weren't for someone above doing this, an ordinary little policeman wouldn't dare to ask the plaintiff to charge such money so blatantly, and take a step back. Since this is not the first time this person has done this, even if the person above did not If he did the same thing, he probably knew about it, and if he knew about it, if he said that this person didn't pay tribute at all, would anyone believe it?

Regardless of whether others believe it or not, it is estimated that those in the judiciary will not believe it.

The chief and deputy chief of the Winthrop Police Department were called up almost overnight. After learning about this, they were going crazy, especially the chief of the police department. He was originally a detective in Boston. But because he was about to retire, he was promoted here to be the chief. He didn't know the details of the situation here. He just wanted to retire safely and be done.

But unexpectedly, he would cause such a big trouble at the end of the day. Let alone retiring normally this time, it would be trivial if he was not betrayed for a few years before retiring. So far, he couldn't help yelling at the police station.

As for the deputy director, he knows some things. He has also received money from this guy. It can be said that he is the umbrella of this guy. But the problem is that this is the US emperor, not the country, and the other party is a rich man. , as long as he has the heart to poke up, then this matter will not be good. When he received the call, his face turned blue instantly.

Now he is not thinking about how to suppress this matter, because he knows that it cannot be suppressed, and his only thought is to pluck himself out.

And to pick it out, undoubtedly the biggest difficulty is on Jiang Hai's side, so he is also considering whether to talk to Jiang Hai.

But unfortunately, when he came to the door the next day, Jiang Hai was no longer at home. Don't get me wrong, he didn't go to other places, but went to buy a boat.

With the progress of the manor, the general direction of Jianghai Manor has been set. For now, it is mainly about raising cattle, but the resources in the sea cannot be given up. These days Edward has risked Some of the biting sea water, I went to the sea to check it out, just near the sea and on the sea level, the resources in this fishing ground are still very good.

At least within sight, he saw a lot of fish, groups of mackerel, cod, herring, cruising back and forth in the middle and upper layers, and even some skipjack and other fish that migrate with the warm current Existence, which surprised Edward a little.

Because generally speaking, at this time of year, these fish will go to live in the temperate ocean near the equator, but now these guys live here, which makes him very puzzled, but apart from these fish, the situation on the bottom of the sea, he just I can't figure it out.

After all, he is not Jiang Hai, he can ignore the water pressure, and he can also breathe in the sea. He can dive as far as he wants.

He can't, so in order to judge the situation at the bottom, he has to get a boat.

But this is Jiang Hai's fishing ground, so Jiang Hai has to buy the boat, so taking advantage of nothing important today, Edward called Jiang Hai and went to Boston together. There is a shipyard, but it is not a good thing to go there now. After all, Jiang Hai is now unwelcome in the eyes of some people in Winthrop.

Secondly, there are basically small boats here. If you want to order a large boat, the speed is slow and the quality is average. It is better to go to Boston, so after researching, the two still drove to Boston. .

Boston is a lesser-known seaport city, but it is a seaport after all, and if it is a seaport, there will always be a shipyard.

The most famous here is the Charleston Naval Shipyard, but this shipyard has long been closed.

Now it is a museum of ships, but there are quite a few shipyards near this shipyard.

This time, the targets of Jiang Hai and Edward are these shipyards.

Driving, not long after, the two of them entered the port area of ​​Boston. Far away, Jiang Hai saw a huge destroyer parked on the sea level. That was the Charleston Naval Shipyard. One of the museums on the surface is a very old destroyer. This ship is open to the public for free.

However, although Jiang Hai is also very interested in this place, it does not mean that he will go to see it now. He will go to see it later when the ship is loaded. Then he followed Edward to a shipyard called Ocean Temple. forward.

According to Edward's introduction, this shipyard is also a time-honored brand in the Boston area. According to legend, this shipyard was born during the First World War. Still very solid.

During World War II, it also existed quite well, and played an indelible role in supporting the European battlefield.

Now, although it has initially entered the era of peace, the various military industries of the US imperialists have basically been shut down.

Except for some very large weapons companies, even the government's shipyards have been closed, let alone them?

Now they only have the resources to sell fishing boats, but boats, these things are not cheap, although it will not be closed for three years, and they will eat for three years after opening, but one order is enough for them to drink for three to five months. , so the business of this shipyard is not bad.

When Jiang Hai and Edward parked the car in front of the door, they happened to see a large ship just finished on the other side of the dock, and they tried to launch it into the water. Jiang Hai couldn't help sighing softly when he saw the large ship shining with silvery white light. He let out a sigh, and it seemed that he would own a fishing boat of this size in the near future. Just as he was staring at it, a group of people came out of the shipyard.

The leader is a white man who looks to be about 60 years old, about 1.9 meters tall, with a lot of fat on his face, a gray beard, and a huge beer belly, but his body is still very strong. Wears a yellow hard hat.

When he saw Edward, he was obviously taken aback, and then walked over with a smile on his face.

Hey, old man, why did you remember coming here? Looking at Edward in front of him, he bumped his fist hard with Edward, and asked with a smile on his face. After hearing his words, Edward Also said it.

This is Dalton-Green, the owner of this Ocean Temple, and also my friend, Dalton, this is my boss, he bought the Green Forest and wants to develop the fishing grounds there, so let's come here first Buy some boats and go back.

Oh, Green Forest, I know it's there. I sold them a boat more than ten years ago, but it wasn't long before that poor guy collapsed under the subprime mortgage crisis, but it's really there. It’s a big place, I didn’t expect it, I can still see someone buying it in my lifetime, young man, your courage is really good.” Hearing Jiang Hai’s words, the uncle here said with a look of surprise, he He knew the market value of that place, and his own shipyard probably couldn't even compare to that big manor's fraction, so he didn't realize that this young man was actually a rich man for a whole year.

Hehe, you're being polite. After shaking hands with the uncle, Jiang Hai said with a light smile.

Then let's go now, I will accompany you to see what you need. Patting Jiang Hai on the shoulder, Dalton-Green said with a smile, and then led Jiang Hai and Edward into his Behind this huge shipyard.

As soon as he walked into the shipyard, a strong smell of engine oil drifted into Jiang Hai's nose.

If ordinary people smell this smell, it is estimated that they will feel uncomfortable for a long time, but Jiang Hai and Edward are fine. Edward is used to running boats and boats. This kind of engine oil smell is the same as the smell of the grass in front of his door. something wrong.

As for Jiang Hai, he just came out of the country, and he is not afraid of the air in the country, so why are he afraid of these things? Thinking too much!

Our company originally specialized in manufacturing warships, but now it is only qualified to manufacture fishing boats, but you can rest assured that our fishing boats are also as strong as warships. It can be said that they are warships equipped with cannons. Haha, open Just a little joke, what kind of boat do you need? Taking Jiang Hai, looking at the dozens of busy workshops next to him, Dalton said while joking, hearing what he said, Jiang Hai was also looking at this The ship next to him, but he didn't know what he wanted.

We need to order four boats, three small boats, and one offshore trawler. Seeing Jiang Hai's gaze, Edward here said directly, fishing boats and small boats have their own particularities.

Taking fishing boats as an example, fishing boats are divided into marine fishing boats and freshwater fishing boats, and middle-sea fishing boats are divided into three types: coastal, offshore and pelagic.

The material is also different, wood, steel, fiberglass, aluminum alloy and so on.

There are also motorized, sail, and manual propulsion methods, which can be said to be different.

The offshore fishing boat that Jiang Hai needs now is an out-and-out big guy for ordinary small boats.

Hearing that Jiang Hai wanted an offshore fishing boat, Dalton-Green nodded slightly, and then led them to a room next to him. There were a lot of materials in the room, which recorded all The condition of fishing boats.

Jiang Hai and the others need to choose a good model here. Of course, if there is anything that needs to be modified, it must be explained in advance.

That's fine. After watching for about half an hour, Edward and Jiang Hai discussed it. Jiang Hai has a submissive attitude, and Jiang Hai doesn't know what to choose, but in his opinion, the fishing boat Edward chose is really good.

Oh, that's it. This boat is not bad. The standard configuration is the hull material made of steel mesh cement. The total length of the boat is fifty-five meters. It can be regarded as a big guy in an offshore fishing boat. It is equipped with three engines... See Seeing what Jiang Hai and Edward chose, Dalton here couldn't help but start talking, but apart from what he said at the beginning, Jiang Hai was one of the top three and couldn't understand at all.
