Chapter 179 Surprised everyone!

“Long life in England (

In a flash, 2 months passed quickly.

On this day, the Liverpool terminal is still very busy.

A cargo ship without a huge chimney approached slowly, attracting the attention of many people!

“What kind of ship is that? Why doesn’t it have a huge chimney?” A sailor exclaimed exclaiming, pointing to the Flying Fish, which was traveling on the sea in the distance.

These days, whether it is a cargo ship or a warship, it is basically a steam engine, and a steam engine must have a huge chimney.

“Let me see!”

“Hey, I saw it, the flag says Flying Fish?”

“It’s the Flying Fish! My God, the Flying Fish is here!”

At the wharf, people are waiting here every day for the arrival of the Feiyu. Many of the sailing companies that have come here to participate in the ship exchange meeting have sent people to wait here, in order to see the Feiyu for the first time. Really!

“Hurry up, hurry up and report this news to the boss.”

“Go!”

“Flying Fish is here!”

“The first ocean-going cargo ship powered by a large diesel engine?”

After all, the various propaganda in the newspapers these days, many people know the news!

Soon, Li Lin’s Flying Fish docked at the dock.

At the same time, many people have also been notified and rushed over, and they have gathered around!

“Boss, there are a lot of people watching!” Li Zhi took a look. Before they got off the boat, they saw hundreds of people gathered from the shore.

Many people are in suits and leather shoes. At first glance, they are bosses?

“They received the news in advance? How did they know we were here today.” Li Biao was also stunned.

“Okay, get off the boat first and see what they mean by coming here.” Li Lin said.

As soon as they got off the boat, a group of people gathered around. Li Lin also saw several reporters!

“Who is your captain?” A middle-aged man with a pot belly stepped forward and asked.

Li Lin looked at the other party’s custom suit, and at first glance, he was not an ordinary person.

“I’m the boss of this shipping company, what do you have to do with the captain?” Li Lin said indifferently.

“Are you Mr. Lee, the owner of Lee’s Shipbuilding Company?” Davis asked with a hint of uncertainty.

“Yes.”

“Oh, hello, hello, I’m from France, Davies, general manager of Meyer Shipping Company!” Davies extended his hand to Li Lin very enthusiastically.

Li Lin smiled and shook hands with each other.

“It turns out that you are Mr. Li Lin Li, hello, hello, I am Brown, from the United States. I am the boss of Brown Shipping Company…”

“Hello Mr. Li, I’m…”

Suddenly, more than a dozen people introduced themselves to Li Lin.

Li Lin also shook hands with each other one by one.

Obviously, the bosses and executives of this group of shipping companies are very interested in Li Lin’s Flying Fish!

“Mr. Li, can we go up and visit your Flying Fish?” Davis asked.

“Of course! You are all here to participate in this ship exchange meeting. We should communicate more. I also very much welcome you to visit my Flying Fish.” Li Lin smiled.

“Hahaha…” Everyone laughed.

“go!”

A group of people followed Li Lin and others up to visit.

“Mr. Li, I heard that the displacement is about 5,000 tons?”

“right.”

“Hey, wait a minute, I look at the hull, oh no, even the connections on these decks are unique. It doesn’t seem to be a riveting technique, right?” After Brown came up and took a closer look, he made a big discovery!

The so-called riveting technology is popularly said that riveting refers to two plates with a small thickness, by drilling holes in their parts, then putting the rivets in, riveting the rivets with a rivet gun, and connecting the two plates or objects together. Methods.

This method is really a level compared to arc welding technology!

“Yes, my flying fish is not using riveting technology, but arc welding technology! This is a new type of technology, which can make shipbuilding faster, tighter, stronger and more practical!” Li Lin explained.

“New welding technology?”

“Arc welding technology?”

“This seems to be invented by Bernardos? Isn’t it said that it is very unstable? This welding technology is not mature.” A boss named Rodriguez said in surprise.

“Yes, it was immature before, but I have invested a lot of money in in-depth research in the past few years, and I have completely solved this problem. Look, my Feiyu’s first voyage, isn’t it very good?” Li Lin He continued with a smile: “Oh, by the way, Bernardos is currently working for me.”

“so!”

“It seems that this new technology is really good.”

“At least it looks really good for now.” Many people nodded.

“Let’s go, I’ll take you to continue to have a look.”

“In addition to carrying cargo, my Flying Fish also has 20 first-class single rooms on board, and every two rooms share showers and sanitary facilities…”

After a visit, everyone found that this new welding technology is indeed good, and it looks more pleasing to the eye. UU reading www.uukanshu. com

After all, the riveting technique looks like a screw, which affects the appearance.

In fact, what they most want to visit is the power cabin!

That’s right, just look at the diesel engine!

Soon, as they wished, Li Lin took them to visit a wave of diesel engine cabins.

When they saw this huge diesel engine, they were all shocked.

“Oh sell melon! The first time I’ve seen such a huge diesel engine!”

“It’s great!”

“Mr. Li Lin, your shipbuilding company changed the history of diesel engines!”

After everyone visited, Davis asked, “Mr. Li, can Feiyu really reach a speed of 21 knots?”

When everyone heard this, they all looked at Li Lin.

“Of course, we will conduct a live test performance at sea in three days. Everyone is welcome to come and experience the boat!” Li Lindao.

“Oh, that’s great!” Everyone was surprised.

“Actually, our diesel engine has great advantages as power! First of all, we only need to consume about 1.5 tons of diesel a day! And traditional steam engines need to consume at least 15 tons of coal! In this way, we fly fish. The fuel tank of the No. 1 can be greatly reduced, more space can be loaded with more cargo, and our supplies can be extended…” Li Lin did not forget to talk about its advantages.

After everyone heard it, they all felt that it was reasonable.

“In addition, I would like to tell you a piece of news, that is, my shipbuilding company is not only able to build such a cargo ship with a displacement of several thousand tons. A big diesel engine power pack!” Li Lin vowed.
