Wandering Knight Start: I have a simple data panel

Sanger also assisted at the right time: "Brother, no matter how well the warship is maintained, it is still second-hand. Do you think it can be cheaper? Give me a 50% discount."

"I can only try my best to get the price." The governor looked very embarrassed.

"I'll make the decision then," Sanger looked at Joey, then turned his head and stretched out a finger: "I'll give you another 10% of hard work fee for each warship in private."

"It's less, 20%, I still have to take care of the navy, but I won't let you suffer a loss. If you need after-sales service, drive directly to the Jewel Port, I guarantee that it will be the cost price." The governor showed a ferocious look.

Both looked at Councillor Joey, who hesitated for a moment and said, "The price hasn't been mentioned yet!"

"Warrior-class battleship, 4,204 meters, 28 guns, maximum caliber 260 mm, cost one...three million gold coins, I'll give you a discount, two million gold coins per ship, even if it's depreciation."

The Governor didn't remember the detailed data, but the Warrior-class was a long-term main battleship after all, so Councillor Joey was very familiar with it.

This price must be expensive, he thought a new ship could be built with two million.

Of course, there was no way to get ripped off if the skills were not as good as others.

So, he decisively bargained: "Reduce the price by another 500,000 gold coins."

"No problem!!" Governor Jeffreys agreed very straightforwardly.

This made Councillor Joey, who was originally planning to bargain back and forth, full of questions.

No, didn't you want to discuss it with the Navy? Is the bargaining space so flexible? Should I cut it in half?

At the critical moment, Governor Jeffreys interrupted his various fantastic ideas with a gloomy look.

"Mr. Joey, you are not playing tricks on me, are you going to regret it?"

Okay! Playing tricks on a governor and earl of a big country.

I am afraid that the cannon will be pointed at their heads soon, asking where the courage comes from.

Councillor Joey's forehead began to sweat, and he quickly shook his head: "No, 1.5 million gold coins, a very reasonable price."

Even if a 20% bonus is added, no one can say anything about this price.

With their own technical strength, they can't build such a giant ship, and the cost may not be lower than this price.

Premium!! Isn't it normal for the seller's market to have a premium?

Councillor Sanger had no objection to this, and just waited to unify the caliber back. Isn't the bonus 50%?

Anyway, the money for purchasing warships is paid by the parliament, so what's the harm if it's a little more expensive or cheaper.

Money leads the way, and everything goes so smoothly.

...

Governor Jeffreys is very fast, and he packs up and goes on the road directly.

Ten days later, he arrived at Gem Harbor and met Commander Lawrence.

In front of Congressman Joy and Congressman Sanger, the two had a fierce conflict, and finally Governor Jeffreys Jr. won the final victory.

Of course, the payment was made upon delivery, and the colonial fleet happened to be responsible for the escort mission.

It is said that the commander was very angry and did not even show up next.

The Warrior-class battleships were well maintained. Congressman Joy personally went on board to experience it and selected two.

As a warship with a service life of less than six years, it is still a giant ship ahead of the Lionheart Kingdom.

Moreover, the maintenance of the navy is very careful, from steam turbines to screws, there are complete maintenance manuals.

It can be pulled out to fight at any time and exert its combat power 100%.

And Lawrence could not say anything, this was originally a model eliminated to the second line.

The Warrior-class was officially classified as a protected cruiser and retreated to the second line.

Now being installed are the 10,000-meter-class armored cruisers, the 12,000-meter-class battlecruisers, and the 20,000-meter-class battleships that have just completed their sea trials.

It is said that this batch of Warrior-class ships will be gradually converted into second-line ships such as heavy artillery cruisers.

Every time there is a new ship before, it is equipped with the Colonial Navy Command first.

For example, the first Warrior-class Empire is the flagship of the Navy Command.

At that time, it was because of the huge pressure faced by the Colonial Navy that it had to compromise.

But now the opponent is lagging behind and has not caught up.

The functions of the domestic Navy Department are gradually improving. The Minister of the Navy Adrian has an extraordinary background and skills. The first batch of warships are all in service in the Principality Fleet.

Seeing his fleet fall from the throne of the first, how can Lawrence not be anxious?

Until today, he has only one battlecruiser in service.

Seeing that the shipbuilding plan has slowed down, there is no enemy of sufficient weight, so the scale of shipbuilding has been reduced.

Lawrence has been very anxious for a long time, but unless it is unplanned funds, how can the Colonial Navy Fleet be in service?

The cost of building a ship of this size starts at 5 million, and Lawrence doesn't know how long it will take to save up the money.

Now, he has found a sucker.

He can buy a second-tier warship at double the price, and the subsequent repairs and maintenance will be another income, and he will be able to save enough money soon.

The risk is also borne by Earl Jeffreys, how could he not do this business?

Whoever can get the money is the boss.

The governor can get the money, so what if he lowers his head?

Therefore, when Councillor Joey saw the huge battlecruiser, he was completely dumbfounded.

This is a first-class warship that has just been commissioned, a heavy weapon to deter the sea.

With high speed, strong armor and super-dimensional attack capabilities, it can withstand a period of time even if it fights against a battleship.

Apart from itself, there are not many weapons in the world that can threaten it.

A sea fortress that never falls, this is its positioning.

The battlecruiser has not been officially unveiled yet, so Senator Joey certainly knows nothing about it.

There have been no conflicts in the waters of Jewel Harbor recently, and even if there were, it would not be worth sending out such a big guy.

It is also to boost the momentum of Governor Jeffreys, otherwise there would be no need to send out such a big guy.

Of course, it would be best to stimulate the buyers and make them pay more happily.

So, Mr. Joey was dumbfounded.

"Governor, are you selling this big guy?"

His expression was very pious, and he would pay for it without hesitation even if the price was 100 million gold coins.

"You can't afford it." The Governor smiled very proudly.

"Name a price, and you can afford it if you have a price." Senator Joey said very stubbornly.

"No, there are many things in this world that cannot be bought with gold coins." The Governor smiled very reservedly, which was the pride of the strong.

Having money does not mean everything.

The Principality would never sell such things easily, when it...enjoys an invincible position.

Councillor Joey finally woke up, like a dream of unrequited love, broken into pieces.

This kind of military weapon is really not available for purchase.

He envied, really envied, this is the ultimate dream of the navy.

Of course, this is his opinion without seeing the battleship.

But this did not affect his pilgrimage-like mood to board the battlecruiser.
