259 Shipbuilding

After resting for a night, the next day, a regular meeting was held in the conference hall of the manor.

In order to dilute the sad atmosphere brought by the sacrificed warriors, Carl took the lead in speaking.

"Sir, after counting the fleet's harvest this time, it can be called a great harvest!"

"Oh? Let's hear it."

Carl's words really attracted everyone's attention, and Link hurriedly asked him to explain in detail.

Although he saw the heavy draft of the transport cargo ship, he was not sure of the specific harvest.

"All kinds of antiques, precious metal jewelry, gems and artworks fill the entire two cargo ships."

Link nodded reservedly. These things are difficult to ship and sell stolen goods in large quantities. There is a large number of such things in the Sverak family treasure house brought by Teresa from the Ash Mountain Islands.

I can only take action slowly in small batches, and I cannot quickly recover funds.

"There are also gold and silver coins weighing several tons, of which the golden snake coins are two tons!"

"Wow! So many?"

"Oh my God, how much is a ton? Parker, come and calculate!"

...

The conference hall immediately became noisy. Everyone present usually touched the golden snake coins and counted them. They had never even seen the golden snake coins a year ago, but now they told them that they had seized two tons of golden snake coins. How could this not shock them?

"If I'm not doing it wrong, I should have tens of thousands of golden snake coins!"

Parker said guessingly, touching his beard.

"Based on the rough weight, you can have about 40,000 Golden Snake Coins!"

Carl gave a professional answer with certainty, which surprised everyone present again.

Link couldn't help but sigh that the fastest way to get rich is to rob, especially robbing pirate kings like Victor Mare.

It is also sad to say that Victor Mare exploited his subordinates and accumulated so much wealth.

But because of his pirate status, he can hardly spend it.

The excellent main warships are all from the officials of various countries, and it is impossible to sell them to pirates like him.

Most of the craftsmen who can make various exquisite and high-end weapons and armor are also from the commanders of nobles from various countries with a long history. They can only buy in small batches. As for the fact that they want to put their subordinates in large quantities, they cannot do it at all.

Such pirates without background can only become fat meat to be slaughtered by various countries when they become bigger.

He could only spend money on building a more magnificent residence, buying various luxury goods and enjoying equipment, which were of no use to improve his strength.

Link took it as a warning in his heart. The biggest difference between him and these pirates is that he has a broad horizon and the vigorous ambitions he brought with him. He will never be as comfortable as Victor Mare, becoming the pirate king in the Golden Sea like Victor Mare.

The end of the Sverak family and Victor Mare always alert Link, and they can never relax their guard, and there will always be more terrible challenges waiting for him.

"Tell me about other gains."

Link made up his mind that this batch of money would be used to purchase supplies from the empire, and all military supplies such as food, livestock, weapons and arms were also in his plan.

I don’t know when the invasion of the Snake Cult will begin. Once it really starts, these hard currency in the market will definitely rise rapidly. No matter how many golden snake coins are, they may not be able to exchange for these life-saving materials.

Link has long lost interest in money. Now he is just thinking about how to transform these golden snake coins into the strength of Miluo Island. As long as his strength is strong enough, there are naturally thousands of ways to obtain money.

“In addition to these, there are more than three thousand slave laborers who Victor bought from all over the country.

It can be used to participate in the construction of the island."

Miluo Island now has more and more manpower requirements, and many new workshops have not been put into operation. The main reason is that there is not enough manpower.

"Okay, you can do this. Those captured pirates are used on the most labor-consuming islands. Once the land is renovated, arrange personnel to build them quickly."

Carl nodded and obeyed the order.

"What is the military situation on the island now?"

Link then asked about the military development he was most concerned about.

“The weapons and equipment used for trading with the North are ready and ready to be shipped and set off at any time.

There was also an injured Imperial main warship at the dock two days ago. The shipmakers said that they could imitate the Imperial warship soon, and as early as one week, they could be launched."

"Hmm? So fast?"

Link was a little surprised. In his image, he built a main battleship. Even if all kinds of materials were available, the wood used for shipbuilding would be dried. It would take more than a month to build the battleship.

"The imperial warship skeleton has been built in the dock. The dismantled imperial warship has been used to imitate and has been successful. The imperial warship that shipwrecks now need is just to improve some details."

Link was overjoyed after hearing this. Miluo Island was finally able to use the top main warships. Even if the performance was different from the orthodox imperial warships, Link could accept it.

After all, he is not like Ashley, under the control of the Imperial Navy. As long as Link is willing and has sufficient materials, the dock on Miluo Island can make warships for him 24 hours a day.

"How fast can our dock be built? How long will it take to launch an imitation imperial warship?"

Link then asked Carl.

"If the first copy is successful, it will be able to enter mass production soon.

There are two ship platforms in the dock on Miluo Island, which can build two main warships at the same time. If they are full, they can be launched in about a month."

Carl thought for a while and replied to Link.

"So slow?"

"Sir, this is already very fast, even faster than the Imperial Official Dock.

Because there are enough boatmen on our island to work without changing jobs.

If you want to speed up the construction, you can only add a dock. There are enough boatmen received from the Sverak family to handle the two docks running at the same time."

Carl explained to Link.

Link thought of these shipwrecks from the Ash Mountain Islands, who were originally responsible for the cultivation, maintenance and even construction of all warships under his command, and were distributed in several docks. Now they are arranged in the same dock, so people are naturally more than enough.

"Pyke, are our crew and sailors enough?"

"It is enough to supply a hundred main warships, but then there will be no enough personnel to arm the three-masted clutches.

Anyway, with the size of our current 80 main warships, it has been enough for a long time."

"Then expand a dock and make sure to increase the scale of the Miluo Island Navy Fleet as soon as possible!"
