What the hell is a private enterprise?

Chapter 2 Duty Free No.

After guessing the other party's identity, Tang Wen immediately became cautious. No wonder he didn't go to a regular shipyard. He wanted to leave no trace.

The small rural workshops are not registered at all, and the boats they build are purely wild, so their origins cannot be traced at all.

The motor can be assembled by yourself, and the hull is simple, it is nothing more than welding steel plates.

Although Tang Wen did not know how to build a ship, there were people in the village who could. Tang Wu often hired strong laborers from the village when he had business, and they knew how to cut steel plates and weld.

And at five thousand yuan a boat... it's still profitable. Nowadays, a ton of steel costs about one thousand six hundred yuan. It took a little over two tons to build this boat, and the pure material cost is more than three thousand yuan.

As for labor, it is the cheapest thing in Dayuan Village, and a net profit of several hundred is considered a lot.

But Tang Wen also thought of his own system, wondering if he could build such a speedboat?

As soon as he had this thought, the system in his mind finally responded:

[Order detected: Unnamed motorboat x2, order total: None

Unnamed Shipyard (LV.0) meets the construction conditions;
Please complete the order data and start design and cost accounting after obtaining specific parameters.

Tang Wen quickly read the information, and then found that real-life orders could actually be accepted by the system. At the same time, the difficulty required for the motorboat was very low, so the order could actually be accepted.

Following the system prompts, Tang Wen soon discovered that the shipyard actually had a design module. As long as he set the ship parameters himself, he could automatically start designing the ship and calculating the cost, charging different amounts of silver coins depending on the difficulty.

Tang Wen quickly designed the parameters, setting the dimensions at 3.5 meters wide, 12 meters long, and a draft of 0.2 to 1 meter. It was a very standard large speedboat, driven by an external gasoline motor and with a speed of over 50 knots (90 kilometers).

As he set the parameters, a speedboat model that looked almost identical to the one in the photo appeared in his mind according to his idea.

【Would you like to pay 10 silver coins for a design quote? 】

Tang Wen chose "Yes" without hesitation, and the system responded almost immediately:

【Design quotation completed】

[Design blueprint: 3.5 meters wide, 12 meters long, maximum draft 1 meter, full load displacement 12 tons, empty load displacement 2.9 tons, hull anti-corrosion treatment with epoxy zinc-rich paint, integrated welding process;
动力：4台250匹舷外发动机，最大速度55节，最大航程：15节/120海里】

Estimated cost:

Required R&D:

1.250HP marine outboard V8 two-stroke gasoline engine (compact):
Fuel supply mode: EFI

Configuration: V-type eight-cylinder

Power: 150KW
Speed: 5000 rpm

Weight: 220kg
Requires 500 experience points (1000 silver coins)

2.2.1 ton Lightweight Steel Low Resistance Hull: 20 Experience (40 Silver)

Required manufacturing:
1. Direct manufacturing: 220 silver coins/bar (cycle 20 days)
2.来料加工：钢铁3.5吨，石油20公斤，205银币/条（周期12天）】

Looking at the quotation information given by the system, Tang Wen's eyes widened:

According to his needs, the system also designed a gasoline motor, which requires 1000 silver coins to develop, which is almost equivalent to the price of upgrading the shipyard.

Although it is a lot, if you think about it carefully, it is only more than 250 RMB, and you can design a 8-horsepower V gasoline marine motor?

You have to know that this thing would cost hundreds of thousands of yuan in the future, and it would probably cost tens of thousands of yuan now.

There are two types of manufacturing costs after research and development. One is that the shipyard takes care of everything, and the other is that Tang Wen provides the materials and the shipyard processes them. The prices are quite different.

220 silver coins are equivalent to nearly yuan, but the problem is... this includes four marine motors worth tens of thousands of yuan!

It’s a pity that he can’t even come up with a thousand silver coins right now, otherwise he would be able to really make a lot of money!

However, it would be great to just build the hull. Researching and developing the hull only costs 40 silver coins, so the cost of building the hull alone is definitely lower.

He tried removing the engine and only making the hull, and immediately presented new data:
Hull price:
1. Direct manufacturing: 63 silver coins/bar (cycle 5 days)
2.来料加工：钢铁2.5吨，石油20公斤，19银币/条（周期3天）】

"Hey! Can you do this?!"

Zheng Hai knocked on the table impatiently. The repairman's son didn't seem to be very smart either. He stared at the photo for a long time and smiled like a fool.

If it weren't for the secluded location of the shipbuilding site, Zheng Hai wouldn't have bothered to bother. "Do it, we can definitely do it!"

Tang Wen nodded hurriedly. He had to do business if he could, otherwise how would he get the capital to develop a shipyard and carry out system tasks?

Moreover, the price of simply manufacturing the hull was shockingly cheap, 63 silver coins for only three thousand yuan!
Even buying three tons of steel now costs five thousand!

"But this is a big ship, so you have to pay half the deposit."

Tang Wen originally just said it casually, but Zheng Hai immediately took out his wallet, took out a large amount of red bills and began to count them, and then handed them all over.

"Exactly five thousand. I need two first, and I'll need them in a month.

As for the request... Ah Chang, come and take a look in half a month."

Zheng Hai waved his hand, and a shaved-headed younger brother stepped forward and nodded respectfully:
"Yes, brother, don't worry, I know what to do."

Zheng Hai looked at the extremely simple shed again and was about to leave with his bag.

Tang Wen quickly stopped him, took out the receipt from the drawer, quickly wrote the receipt, and handed it to the other party.

Five thousand yuan is a lot of money these days and must be taken seriously.

Zheng Hai was a little surprised when he took the receipt, but he put it away carefully and got into the Peugeot without looking back.

As the red Peugeot kicked up a cloud of dust on the dirt road in the countryside, Tang Wen suddenly had more information in his mind:

【Order created：

Unnamed Shipyard Level 0:

Unnamed motorboat (hull) x2, total order value: 216 silver coins.

Need to research (hull), then start construction]

Seeing the two unnamed ones, Tang Wen thought for a moment and decided to give his own small workshop a name.

[Unnamed Shipyard LV.0 has been renamed: Gaijin Shipyard LV.0]

[The unnamed motorboat has been renamed: Duty Free No. 1 Motorboat]

Then... Tang Wen looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he clicked on R&D and Construction with a try-it attitude.

Duty-Free Speedboat No. 40 (Hull) has been developed, Silver Coins -

[63 silver coins have been paid, and construction of Tax-Free No. has begun]

[Construction period: 0 days, 0 hours, 1 second/5 days]

When the time in the construction cycle started to beat from 1 second, Tang Wen hurried out of the hut. In his eyes, the open space outside the shed was wrapped in a light blue rectangle, and the entire outline of Duty Free No. was revealed inside.

And at the very bottom of the outline, there is a little yellowish shimmer.

Tang Wen walked forward, but found that he was blocked outside the light curtain and could not get closer.

Upon careful observation, he found that the location of the pale yellow light was... a steel plate that was less than the size of a palm.

And under his gaze, the steel plate was expanding little by little.

"..."

Tang Wen tilted his head, and a question mark slowly appeared on his head.

This is very similar to the shipbuilding animation when he plays games, where the ship is built from the bottom up little by little, similar to 3D printing.

But now, although I am in reality, a scene that can be called magic appears before my eyes.

Tang Wen, who was originally thinking of asking his master for help, gradually curled up the corners of his mouth and the smile on his face began to become perverted.

Since it’s magic shipbuilding, I’m not sleepy anymore.
