Ruien said happily:"President Shen, that's great. I also want to meet this legendary captain A-Gump."

Looking at Ruien who looked excited, the corners of Shen Hao's mouth rose slightly.

This guy probably wants to poach someone.

The strength of the U.S. Navy is good, but commanders with brilliant records like Forrest Gump are still very popular.

The key point is that Forrest Gump is an American with white skin, so he naturally has a sense of trust.

However, A-Gump was summoned by Shen Hao, and he was not more loyal to Shen Hao than he was worried about, nor was he afraid of being seduced away.

Soon, under the arrangement of Shen Hao, Rui En met Forrest Gump, and the two had a pleasant conversation.

Sure enough, it was as expected by Shen Hao.

Rui En made a generous offer to A-Gump and wanted to poach him.

However, A-Gump decisively refused.

This made Rui En look confused.

He couldn't figure out why he refused?

What’s more, I can’t figure out why Forrest Gump, an American, is willing to sacrifice his life for Shen Hao.

Regarding this question, A-Gump ignored him and turned around to leave.

This made Rui En look helpless.

After meeting Forrest Gump, Rui En did not play tricks with Shen Hao.

Start negotiating directly to purchase the super-dreadnought battleship

"This Nevada-class battleship (No.: BB-36) is the first batch of super-dreadnought battleships in the United States.

Construction started on November 4, 1912, and was launched on July 11, 1914. It has not been officially commissioned yet. It is still on its first voyage. It is definitely a new ship."

"The traditional protection system of the previous battleships was medium-thick armor, which was unable to defend against armor-piercing projectiles fired by the large-diameter artillery of the dreadnought battleships.

This is similar to the naval battle between Captain Forrest Gump and Japan in the Wanwan Strait. President Shen should know best the power of armor-piercing bombs.

And this Nevada-class super-dreadnought battleship has major innovations in battleship protection design."

"Our Nevada-class battleship adopts the"focused protection" armor protection design concept.

On battleships, those unimportant parts have reduced or no armor protection.

Important parts receive maximum armor protection.

This can be said to be a bold innovation, unique in the world."

"Of course, the heavy armor protection areas are mainly concentrated on key parts such as the main turret, engine room and command tower, and the defensive armor of the armored deck and ammunition depot is also strengthened.

It can be said that it is the absolute most advanced concept.

Moreover, this Nevada-class ship is equipped with 10 356 mm caliber main guns, two double-mounted and triple-mounted main gun turrets, and adopts a symmetrical arrangement at the bow and stern.

The reason for shooting like this is that we believe that future naval battles will be long-distance artillery battles.

The power plant uses a completely oil-fired boiler"

"This is based on the lessons learned from the Russo-Japanese War. This class of ships has added a conical 305 mm smoke protection armor under the chimney, reduced the number of boilers and completely used fuel. The engine room personnel can be reduced by half, with a minimum reduction of about 200 people."

"At the same time, the key is to save about 500 tons of weight.

President Shen should know what the reduction of 500 tons is for.

It can be said to be very advanced."

I have to say that Ruien worked very hard to promote it. Of course, he said so many professional and design concepts, not just to sell more money.

Shen Hao said:"Well, Minister Ruien, this super-dreadnought battleship USS Nevada I want it, please give me a price."

Rui En said:"1 The cost of the British standard displacement 27,500-ton super-dreadnought battleship"Elizabeth" is 2.4 million pounds: the cost of German capital ships: such as the König class. Each ship costs about 4,500 10,000 gold marks (worth approximately 2.25 million pounds).

The standard displacement of our Nevada ship is also 27,500 tons, and the design is more advanced and reasonable.

Still the latest model.

The cost is also 2.4 million pounds. If President Shen wants it, we can sell it at the best price.

It was sold for 3 million pounds, which is 12 million US dollars and 28.8 million oceans.

Pounds, U.S. dollars, and oceans are all acceptable."

The stuff is really good, and the price is not cheap.

Shen Hao said:"If it works, I'll pay in oceans. Pay 10% in advance. When the Nevada battleship arrives, the balance will be settled."

Wen After saying this, Rui En was stunned and said,"President Shen, do you mean to pay the full amount? Shen

Hao nodded and said,"Didn't I express myself clearly enough?"

Ruien was shocked and a little unbelievable. She never expected that Shen Hao was so rich.

Ruien originally thought that Shen Hao, like before, took out a loan to buy the Nevada battleship. I didn't expect that the full payment this time was really inhumane.

Rui En gave a thumbs up and said:"President Shen is so generous and the deal is done."

Shen Hao said:"It's a pleasure to cooperate." Then the two parties signed a business contract.

Shen Hao now It has become the largest buyer of the United States.

First, four Dreadnought-class battleships, ten submarines, aircraft and various machines and equipment from aircraft manufacturing plants.

Now, it has purchased another super-dreadnought battleship, the USS Nevada. This is really crazy. He has money.

It adds up to hundreds of millions of oceans.

He spent nearly 30 million oceans at once, and Shen Hao also felt a little sad.

Only then did he realize that he didn't seem to have enough money to spend.

So, it was better to work hard to make money.

Thinking of this, Shen Hao came to Hu Xueli

"Where is Yu Manli now?

I've been back for almost ten days and I haven't seen anyone."

Hu Xueli rolled her eyes at Shen Hao, sat in his arms and said coquettishly,"Master is really partial.

Sure enough, men are all the same.

I only see the new ones smiling, but not the old ones crying.

Shen Hao patted his buttocks and said,"Are you looking for trouble? How about I make you smile tonight."

Hu Xueli shouted:"Okay, who is afraid of whom?""

"Hehe, it's not easy. You dare to challenge me. Who gave you the courage?"Shen Hao said unexpectedly;

"Sir, I'm kidding, I am no match for you alone, I can't bear it." Hu Xueli hugged Shen Hao's neck and kissed her, smiling and saying;

"Well, that’s good to know.

What about Yu Manli?"Shen Hao asked;

"Manli, I went shooting with Miss Hong and Sister Shuzhen, and I haven't come back for more than ten days," Hu Xueli said.

At this moment, the guard suddenly said:"Report, the president is calling urgently."

Shen Haoyi He was stunned and said:"Read"

"Yes, President"

"Chongqing garrison envoy Zhang Yi called: President Yuan suddenly dismissed Sichuan General (Governor-General) Hu Jingyi and appointed Chen Huan as the Sichuan Military Affairs Council Office.

Now Chen Huan led his troops into Sichuan to suppress the formation.

Hu Jingyi was transferred to the capital yesterday.

Now Chen Chen’s troops are surrounding Chongqing and he is asking the president to give instructions on whether to fight or retreat."
