Chapter 1038 New Mining Ship
"According to the tasks issued by the current civilization, it shouldn't take long for me to accumulate enough funds."
"Although the rewards I received before were enough to buy a flagship, there was no way to buy other military vehicles. My goal is to get a complete formation, not just a single warship."
The previous battle made the captain very uncomfortable.
The biggest problem in that battle was that he didn't have a completely independent formation, so he had to obey orders many times, and this was the most painful part for him.
If there was a complete and independent formation, he could take the task according to his own situation.
But if not, it would be different. It would be impossible for him to take the task according to the original idea.
This was the most headache for him, and everything else was fine.
But think about it, there is no way, after all, people have to bow their heads under the eaves, and he is very clear about this truth.
But fortunately, everything is still barely passable, at least he completed the task alive.
There are so many things to consider when joining someone else's team. Just talking about the other party's brain-hole commanders can make his blood pressure rise.
The main reason is that the other side is really hard to deal with. Sometimes the death rate of the troops under command is very high. In fact, there are other better ways, but in order to complete the task without any problems, they chose to take risks.
And this is the problem. You must know that if you take risks, then the treatment he receives here will naturally not be too good.
After all, he and most of the other people in the formation are outsiders, so the other party has no feelings for them at all, so most of the time they can't do anything.
He has seen too many teammates who were eventually destroyed for various reasons, which made him realize immediately that sometimes things are not as simple as imagined.
These outsiders can never escape under the command of others.
All kinds of painful and high-risk tasks are assigned to these outsiders. Although the other party will also send out formations, the value of the formations paid by the other party and his side is completely different.
This also made him realize that living under someone else's roof is definitely not a good choice. In this world, the best route is to rely on yourself, not on anything else. Only when you are strong can you be truly strong.
So this time he paid all the money to buy the flagship. He saved all the money and naturally prepared to use it on his side.
First of all, he bought some related special warships.
For example, mining ships or industrial ships, and then some reconnaissance warships. He bought a lot of them.
He wanted to save enough money with these warships so that he could buy some conventional warships.
In addition, he also needed to prepare a lot of things.
If a fleet wants to reach a certain scale, it must pay a lot.
First of all, the warships of the entire fleet. The price of warships is not cheap, so it costs a lot of money here.
Secondly, the maintenance costs of warships, ammunition costs, and other messy costs are not a small amount, and even if the warships are not moved, the personnel inside the warships, including some miscellaneous costs of the warships themselves, are a huge number every day.
A battleship of the battleship class must have at least 400 people in it, and cruisers, relatively speaking, will have fewer people.
But even so, the number of people in the entire formation is at least 5,000 to 6,000.
5,000 to 6,000 people is not a small number, and the salary of these special operations personnel is not low, so if you calculate it all, then the cost is very exaggerated. When there is no combat mission, these warships are basically left to eat dust. Only when there is a combat mission, these warships will be sent out, and the most important thing is that even after sending them out, you still have to consider the problem of loss, and the daily expenses of fighting are another level.
The most taboo thing for the formation is not to participate in the war, because as long as there is a war, everything is fine.
The benefits provided by the war are huge, which can easily allow them to maintain the fleet's expenses and still make money, but if there is no war, then the problem is very big.
This is a forcible, and you have to rely on your own family to maintain it.
So he needed something that could provide a large amount of income in a long-term and stable manner, and this thing, needless to say, was naturally the mining team.
Under normal circumstances, after the mining team's ships arrived at the mining site, they would place space storage boxes and some other storage equipment, so basically all the collected ore would be placed in them, and the transportation work would be relatively less. After the warehouse was full, large-scale and fast transportation would be carried out, so that efficiency could be maximized.
When storing ore, he had to do a lot more, such as sending formations to some resource areas to take on some transportation tasks.
In this way, it can be said that both are good, these industries are always busy, and the income will continue to come.
"It seems that the transport ship needs to be updated. The industry can indeed meet my recent needs, but these are not the only needs I have."
As he spoke, he also fell into thinking.
Maybe he should consider buying a cargo ship. Although this kind of warship is very expensive, its space transportation capacity is extremely exaggerated. The transportation capacity of a cargo ship is 50 times that of ordinary large-capacity industries.
Only such a huge transportation volume can meet his current needs.
Of course, this level of performance is not as easy to choose as imagined, because there are two types of mainstream transport ships in civilization.
The first type of ordinary cargo ship.
The second type of deep space transport cargo ship.
These two types of warships are very talkative. First of all, the above one has the largest transportation capacity, while the one below has only half of it. But the difference is also obvious. The maneuverability of the top one is It doesn't work, and if you jump, the distance is very short, and it is easy to be interfered by space.
To put it simply, the most important thing about the above ship is that its transportation capacity is guaranteed, while the lower one is different. Although its transportation capacity is much lower, its maneuverability, or its space jumping ability and jumping strength, They are all very powerful.
There is no need to worry about encountering enemies, because this kind of warship can run away when encountering enemies. On the one hand, it is safer, but it loses half of the transportation space. On the other hand, it is unsafe, but the transportation volume is guaranteed. .
He was actually very confused about how to make a choice. However, just when he was still struggling with this, a communication request suddenly caught his attention.
He knew the person who sent the communication request as Chris, and they had previously performed missions in the same formation.
'Chris, long time no see. '
As soon as I got through, the captain greeted me warmly.
"Captain, I heard that you are purchasing a large amount of industrial parts and other documents recently. Are you ready to start building your own fleet?" Chris did not beat around the bush, but asked the question he was more concerned about.
This year's captain couldn't help but frown slightly, obviously. He was a little surprised, why did Chris suddenly talk about this topic? But he still nodded. After all, what he did was not a shameful thing, so he just admitted it openly.
"That's right. Now I have been collecting industrial parts, and there are some combat warships like this Chris. Do you have a way to sell some to me?"
'Come on, captain, you don't know what's going on with me. Even if I have money, I won't buy a battleship. This thing is too risky. It's really unnecessary, especially someone like you who builds a fleet. I know him. Many people who formed fleets basically changed careers in the end. '
"This business is too risky, but I wish you good luck."
"By the way, I forgot to get down to business. The reason I contacted you this time is because I received a piece of gossip. I felt that this news might be very useful to you, so I came over to ask."
Upon hearing this, the captain suddenly became interested and asked what the news was.
"It's like this. A friend of mine received information that United Mining has launched a new ship, and this warship is a flagship-class warship."
"And it's a mining ship."
The captain was also a little surprised to hear this.
"It's a new type of warship, and it's also the flagship of mining. This is a bit interesting. Aren't the ordinary mineral springs sold by United Mining very good? How could you think of launching such a brand-new warship? You have to know how to develop a brand-new one. Battleships are especially flagship-like in their commitment and purpose.”
You must know that before every new ship comes out, it must undergo various tests to judge its performance.
A large amount of resources also need to be invested in the research and development process. All in all, the cost of this wave is very exaggerated. Under such circumstances, every new ship must be stable enough. Take the current situation of United Mining For these series of ore ships launched
Their mining volume is very high.
And in terms of price, although it is very expensive for ordinary people, people with a certain amount of capital can afford it, so the market demand and market space are still relatively large. It is also for this reason that they spend a lot of money. I went to study this without worrying about any so-called losses.
After all, the market is so big, there is no need to worry at all, but the problem is that the new warships are of this level. You must know that the audience of the flagship itself is very small. Under such circumstances, although there are many big influencers who will buy it.
But most of them choose to fight. After all, only the income from fighting can sustain this huge consumption.
So talking about a warship like this that mainly collects resources immediately made him interested. Knowing that in such a small market, they still chose this way is enough to illustrate a problem, that is, they are sure to ensure their This warship can be sold.
And the market scope is very large, otherwise they would definitely lose money this time.
Seeing that he was interested in us, Chris did not show off, but directly sent him some relevant data for him to take a look at.
And when the captain saw the battleship data, he was shocked.
"Finfin Whale-class flagship industrial ship."
Next is the relevant data of this battleship, and this data is also very exaggerated. First of all, the various attributes of the battleship are comparable to those of a conventional small aircraft carrier.
As a flagship-level mining ship, it has a combat power similar to that of a small aircraft carrier, which is enough to show that it is not simple.
And its combat method is the same as that of an aircraft carrier, and it fights through the ship-borne drones.
And it can provide a lot of auxiliary bonuses for drones.
This makes its combat power not weak. It is no exaggeration to say that it can even be used as a main battleship, but it is obviously impossible because its price is much more expensive than those small aircraft carriers.
Its combat power is mainly used for self-protection.
Of course, this is not the point. The point is that its bonus is more than twice the current mainstream mining plus boat ride. That is, it provides assistance in the fleet, so the mining efficiency of all battleships in the fleet must at least double the original basis. This alone is enough to be exaggerated.
This is not over yet. When this ship provides bonuses, it can continue to mine.
He can send out special drones for mining, and this special drone can only be carried by him. This is his special drone, and it can be regarded as an industrial base. When collecting, it can process the ore, and it is also equipped with high-density compression equipment to compress the processed ore into high-density ore to greatly reduce its volume.
According to the data given, the original ore ratio and the ratio after compression reached an astonishing 10:1.
That is, with the same warehouse, he can now store 10 times the ore, and he also has an ore warehouse and an item warehouse. The two warehouses add up to the loading capacity of deep space transportation cargo.
It is no exaggeration to say that after having this warship, it may take 10 days for all his merchants to load before, but now, if the scale of his mining team does not expand, it will take at least 100 days, and such a long time means that his other fitness can go to work. Of course, this is just an ideal quality. In fact, because of the possibility of bonus, he only needs about 30 days to load 30 days, while it may take one or two hundred days to mine others. This is the horror of his bonus.
This data naturally makes the captain feel a little excited. He knows that he must take this warship without thinking.
Of course, he is not stupid. He knows that such a supernatural ability means that its price itself is not cheap, and now it only shows its functions to a certain extent, and there may be more functions that have not been shown (end of this chapter)
