Chapter 476 Shipyard, Gold
"Are they building missile battleships in the dock? Let's go and take a look." Wang Ze looked at the dock not far away and asked the factory director who was accompanying him.
"Yes, Chief, that's the missile battleship we are building, but it's just the beginning." Then he led everyone to the dock.
When you enter the dock, you can see the huge ship inside at a glance.
A large number of skilled workers were busy running up and down.
"How long will it take to build it?" Wang Ze asked.
"It will take another two years. The main reason is that the supply of light steel is a bit slow. Also, light steel is difficult to weld and it requires very high standards from the workers." The factory director followed closely and answered immediately when Wang Ze asked.
"Take your time and do each step carefully. There is no need to rush." Wang Ze nodded. Nanhua does not lack this missile battleship now.
According to the forecast of the South China Ministry of Defense, South China will not encounter a full-scale war with nuclear weapons and electromagnetic guns.
"Destroyers are being built on the No. 7 and No. 9 slipways. Why don't we go over there and take a look?" Seeing that the clan leader seemed a little uninterested here, the factory director immediately arranged for places worth seeing.
The two destroyers are being built simultaneously, and now only the hulls have to be decorated, and they should be ready for sea trials in a few months.
After taking a look around, he was quite satisfied with the capabilities of the Xincheng Naval Shipyard.
From being able to only manufacture patrol boats at the beginning, we are now able to build missile battleships.
The development in the past twenty years is not slow.
Even if he lets go of Nanhua now, Nanhua will be able to stand on his own in this world.
After learning about it, Wang Ze also knew that a destroyer had been built before and was now included in the East China Sea Fleet.
Two destroyers are now being built simultaneously, with plans to build more in the future.
For a country like South China, sea power is the most important direction of development.
"Well done. We need to make more of these things to prevent some people from always taking risks." Wang Ze instructed the shipyard director.
The people around also kept these words in mind. With the clan leader's words, the shipyard would surely receive strong support.
Apart from anything else, at least the supply of light steel can be improved so that we will not be unable to compete with the space elevator project.
Reporters carried cameras and kept filming on the prospecting ship. That night, the images here were shown to thousands of households.
But many people don’t feel anything about this. After all, it’s just prospecting. Can you still mine after knowing it?
After a round of sea trials, the prospecting ship found several mineral deposits, but they were too small and not worth mining.
This ship will also become a global street skater in the future, here today and there tomorrow.
Leaving the shipyard, this New City Canal is now very important, with cargo ships coming and going in an endless stream.
Especially after the Southeast Asia Canal is completed, those thousand-ton small boats will be able to reach the Bashu port directly along the coastline.
After being unloaded here, the cargo will be loaded onto large cargo ships and shipped to all parts of the world.
This also led to a surge in traffic on the New Town Canal.
Nowadays, cargo ship applications have to be approved in queue.
Visitors from all over the world who come to the new city consider this canal a must-see attraction.
Along the canal road, Wang Ze looked at the huge cargo ship nearby.
He turned sideways and asked, "Can this canal be expanded?"
Ma Qi was stunned and immediately said, "The Planning Bureau has a plan, but the capital investment is huge, so it has not been approved."
"The project should start earlier, don't wait." Wang Ze knew that the current quantity was still small. If we waited for the mainland to develop, the freight volume at that time would definitely not be met here.
Nanhua is now capable of building such a project and no longer needs him to do it himself.
Moreover, this canal is no longer like it used to be. At that time, it was deserted. Now there are cargo ships coming and going, and tourists on both sides of the canal.
He can't just use his super powers to expand the facility in broad daylight.
"Understood. I'll arrange it when I get back." Although Ma Qi felt a little embarrassed, he immediately agreed to obey.
Although Nanhua is rich, the investment in a space elevator is huge.
In recent years, it has successively invested in canals, railways and roads in Southeast Asia.
Wang Ze sensed Ma Qi's embarrassment and asked curiously, "What's the matter? Are you having difficulties?"
After hearing what Ma Qi said, Wang Ze smiled and said, "It's a small problem. I can just get some gold and then continue to issue more currency. But you have to use money to buy everything."
"Thank you, Patriarch. I will do my best." Ma Qi said excitedly.
After returning to the mountain base, Wang Ze went to the warehouse without saying a word.
He already knew the composition of gold particles, in the vast space.
Suddenly, golden spots appeared around Wang Ze.
These golden colors grew bigger and bigger, as if they were growing on their own.
However, he still used a bit of his mental power to control matter to form gold bars.
Otherwise, it would be troublesome to deal with a huge gold nugget.
He walked slowly in the huge warehouse.
As he walked, gold bars were neatly stacked on the ground behind him, and gold bars more than one meter high filled the space behind him.
Fortunately, this mountain base was built by Wang Ze’s supernatural powers, otherwise it would not be able to withstand the weight of such a large number of gold bars.
For a week, he took some time every day to make it.
Finally, a total of 100,000 tons of pure gold bars appeared in this warehouse.
When Ma Qi brought people from the Ministry of Finance and the bank here, they were all dumbfounded.
I never expected that the gold the patriarch mentioned would be so much.
"Prime Minister, why don't we just put this gold here?" The president of New Town Bank didn't dare to think about whether such a large amount of gold flowing into the market would severely drive down the current gold price.
"Is it okay not to take it away?" Ma Qi asked.
"I think banks should just print money. There is no need to take out the gold as a stabilizer. If someone really wants to tamper with our currency, that's when the gold will come out," said the leader of the Ministry of Finance.
The main reason is that there is so much gold, and they think it is safest with the patriarch.
As Nanhua began to print large quantities of banknotes, it greatly met the international demand for Nanhua's new currency.
The Federal Reserve has also noticed the anomalies in international currencies and their dollar is not as useful as before.
"Nanhua's unlimited over-issuance of currency is irresponsible to the international economy. We hope Nanhua can control the scale of its currency issuance." The Federal Reserve's announcement appeared on the headlines of major platforms.
For a time, it seemed that the whole world was discussing whether Nanhua was overissuing currency and how much it was overissuing.
Nanhua also had to respond. After all, a large amount of materials are now purchased with Singapore dollars. If any problems arise, it will affect major domestic projects.
"Nanhua has sufficient gold as guarantee, and anyone who meets the conditions can exchange the new currency for gold." A photo full of gold was also published in the newspaper along with the announcement.
Although countries still have doubts, the new dollar is now the most reliable currency.
It is always more secure than the US dollar, which has been decoupled from gold.
