What the hell is a private enterprise?

Chapter 1 Magic Beginning
"You damned Mao, you're flying!"

Tang Wen pounded the solid wooden table so hard that he almost broke his bones.

He just couldn't understand why he signed the slave treaty when he was just playing a game!
He was playing World of Warships in his bedroom that day when suddenly an invitation for an "internal beta shipbuilding quest" popped up on the game page. As long as he agreed, he would receive all the warships in the game for free.

Tang Wen clicked confirm without thinking, and suddenly a line of light screen with the words "Shipyard has been registered" appeared in his mind, and he flew to 1996.

It is also inexplicably bound to a shipyard, and you must build all the warships in the game before you can return to the original time and space.

Damn Russians, the ones in World of Warships are all battleships and destroyers from before WWII. In the 90s, missile cruisers had already dominated the oceans, and a single "Basalt" heavy anti-ship missile could severely damage a battleship. Who still builds those antique things?
What’s more important is that the beginning is too simple!
Tang Wen, who traveled through time, had a legal identity and a shipyard, but this shipyard...

Tang Wen looked around the small room with an 1980s style and an antique electric fan, and saw the half-open shed outside through the window.

That’s right, this is a shipyard built by a villager named Tang from Dayuan Village, Dayuan Town. It covers an area of ​​less than 0 square meters, has a zero degree of automation, no dock, and only some tools and metal materials comparable to those in a repair shop.

The original "shipyard" had no name at all. It was a small shop built by my current father. We used to make wooden fishing boats, but later we upgraded the technology and bought electric welding machines, so we could produce iron fishing boats.

By the way, I also work part-time helping villagers repair bicycles, motorcycles, televisions, rice cookers, or simple agricultural machinery.

Then with the intrusion of the time traveler, the original owner of the repair shop was wrecked at sea, and the shop was handed over to his son "Tang Wen", who dropped out of technical secondary school.

"Technical secondary school is bullshit! I'm attending a real undergraduate program!"

Tang Wen almost fainted after going from a lazy college student to the heir of a rural repair shop overnight, and being a semi-illiterate who had not even graduated from a technical secondary school.

The so-called "shipyard" is just a systematic name. In fact, the repair shop is just a dock dug near the river bend for convenience. Can this also be considered a dock?

After traveling through time, Tang Wen took inventory of all his belongings and found that after selling them, he could barely make a living in Shenzhen. If he went there now, he might even run into Brother Xiao Ma who was chatting with a female character.

Otherwise, why not make some money quickly and buy Tencent shares as soon as possible, and then just sit back and enjoy the interest when QQ takes off in five or six years...

Now is the time when the Internet is booming. The bird system is useless. It is better to try to catch up with the trend yourself.

But just as this thought came up, information popped up in my mind:

[Unbinding the shipyard will be considered a breach of contract and will be punished according to the agreement with 510mm armor-piercing ammunition.
Please complete the pre-entry task as soon as possible: Choose to build a Tier I battleship from the technology tree branch.

"..."

When Tang Wen thought of the 510mm cannon that was bigger than himself, he decisively gave up the urge to go to sea to work, and calmed down to start thinking about how to complete the task.

There are a total of thirteen technology trees in the game, corresponding to the navies of various countries in the world, ranging from the smallest gunboats to top battleships and cruisers, and are divided into levels I (1) to X (10), as well as ☆-level (super) battleships above level ten.

Tier I is the simplest and weakest warship, but...

Even the most rubbish gunboat is still a warship and has nothing to do with my small fishing boat factory.

Tang Wen randomly chose the R-series I-class battleship "Hashidate" gunboat, which was an inland gunboat during World War II with a standard displacement of more than 120 tons and equipped with three mm anti-aircraft guns.

In the game, this is the lowest-level gunboat that novices want to skip, but for Tang Wen...

Although Dayuan Town is close to the sea, the ship shop only built some small fishing boats for offshore and inland rivers before, with a full load displacement of at most 20 tons, which was not feasible at all.

At least the infrastructure for building warships - the dock - is not even enough to build a worthless ship.

When Tang Wen chose to build, a message immediately popped up in his mind:
[Select Tier I battleship "Hashidate", selected shipyard: Unnamed

Unnamed Shipyard (LV.0):
Gold: 0
Silver coins: 187
R&D experience: 0

[Building a Class I battleship requires a shipyard of LV.1 or above. Construction is not possible. Please upgrade your shipyard] [Upgrade cost: 20 gold coins, or 1000 silver coins]

Silver coins can be withdrawn or recharged. The system adjusts in real time according to the international silver price. The current exchange rate is 46.2 yuan per silver coin.

Tang Wen scraped together only 8000 yuan from the easily-disposable assets and cash left by Cheap Old Deng, and only recharged less than 200 silver coins. It was still too early for him to upgrade.

If we still rely on RMB recharge, there will still be a gap of nearly 1996. This was in , and we cannot make up the difference even if we sell Tang Wen.

Tang Wen was racking his brains to figure out how to break the impasse when someone knocked on the door of the dilapidated wooden house.

Before he could open the door, the wooden door was kicked open, making a mournful sound as if it was about to fall apart.

Three big men squeezed into the door. The leading man looked dark and thin, and the two men behind him followed closely behind him like younger brothers.

Tang Wen subconsciously leaned back, groping under the table for something he could grab.

The person who came was very aggressive, as if he was collecting a debt.

Wait, could it be that Lao Deng owes a loan shark?

Tang Wen thought about the visitor's purpose randomly and said tentatively:

"Who are you looking for? Tang Wu is gone."

The dark and thin young man looked at him, nodded and said:
"Tang Lao San is gone, but he didn't send you away.

Let me introduce myself. I'm your father's client, my last name is Zheng Minghai. I've agreed with him that I need two boats. Can you still do it?"

Tang Wen didn't say anything, but just looked past the few people and saw the red Peugeot parked not far from the door.

Twenty years later, the price of a Passat was less than five thousand, but at that time, driving it was definitely comparable to driving a Ferrari.

It is not only a symbol of money, but also means considerable strength.

Tang Wu is just a rural repairman, how could he receive such a customer?
Tang Wen didn't really want to cause trouble, but he still hesitated and said:

"What kind of boat? What style and size are required? Do you have a design?"

"design diagram?"

Zheng Hai laughed uncontrollably, as if he had heard a joke.

"Just like this, just follow it, it must be strong enough.

We can equip the motor ourselves, but we only need the hull. It's 5,000 yuan each. Can you do it?"

He took out a photo from his pocket and threw it on the table. Tang Wen couldn't help but look at it carefully.

It was a fairly clear color photo, showing a semi-enclosed speedboat anchored in the harbor, with four external marine engines at the stern... one, two, three, four!
The small speedboat, which is only about three or four meters wide and more than ten meters long, is packed with marine motors at the back, presenting a violent aesthetic visible to the naked eye.

Generally, one motor can easily reach a speed of 20 to 30 knots. With four motors, is it going to take off?
Besides, marine motors are not cheap, ranging from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands. Such abundant power is too luxurious for a small speedboat.

Thinking of the geographical location of Dawan Town and the fact that this group of people were driving a Peugeot, a word popped up in Tang Wen's mind:
International duty-free trade specialist!
