    Originally, Zhou Weiguo should not have asked such a question, because the technicians and engineers in the shipyard built in Zhoushan were all redeemed from the system. They did not need to accumulate experience like those recruited from the outside.

    But the reason why Zhou Weiguo asked this was because a large part of the workers under the dock were recruited civilians.

    These people need to accumulate some construction experience. After all, the technicians who guide them also need to guide them during construction.

    Tell them what techniques are available during the construction process, etc.

    But after all, there are technicians, and the workers below are also targeting a single direction, so the improvement is relatively fast.

    "It's not clear yet. We have mainly built several hundred-ton gunboats, frigates, minesweepers, etc. during this period. In addition, we have also built three destroyers of over two thousand tons. So far, everything is going smoothly. Our next goal is  Build a light cruiser of about four thousand tons.¡±

    Chen Houfu heard Zhou Weiguo¡¯s question and answered directly.

    After hearing this, Zhou Weiguo nodded and said: "That's right! Step by step, step by step, walking very steadily, this is very stable, keep it up. I will still send you the steel and fuel you need every month.  .It would be better if you could deal with frigates, destroyers, cruisers and other ships by yourself, then I wouldn¡¯t have to buy them anymore.

    These things cost a lot of money no matter which country they are in.  "

    Zhou Weiguo can¡¯t tell Chen Houfu that he has a system or something.  If he wanted to know where the warship came from, he said he bought it!

    As for where he bought it, that was beyond his control. A word of confidentiality silenced everyone.

    "Sir, please rest assured that now our shipyard is gradually increasing productivity, and the workers below are becoming more and more skilled. I believe that soon we will be completely self-sufficient for destroyers, cruisers and other ships."

    Producing our own products instead of having to buy them is a groundbreaking start for us.

    Since the beginning of the last century, we have never had the ability to manufacture surface ships.

    At that time, the navy, known as the first fleet in Asia, purchased its main ships from other countries. It could not even achieve self-sufficiency in ship artillery shells. In the end, it was completely lost in the Sino-Japanese War.

    Later, the remaining shipbuilding industry became dispensable.

    So this is why Chen Houfu has been focusing on the navy these days.

    Because this is of great significance to us.  For the first time, it has the ability to build large surface ships.

    Zhou Weiguo looked at the dark circles under Chen Houfu's eyes caused by constant fatigue and staying up late, and he felt infinite emotion in his heart.

    If you have not been to this era, you will not understand the situation of this era at all.

    "Hou Fu! After today, you can rest in Nanjing for a week! Remember, this is my order. The body is the capital of the revolution. If your body is too good, there will be no one in our navy!"

    Zhou Weiguo also made a little joke.

    Chen Houfu said with some embarrassment: "Thank you sir!"

    "Well! How is the training of sailors in the Navy now? Speaking of which, you have been training them for more than a year. How many have you trained? I told you at the beginning that we must vigorously train sailors in the Navy. If you don't have enough sailors,  I won¡¯t add any large ships to you!¡±

    Training sailors is also very crucial.  If there are no sailors, even if your shipbuilding industry develops, what's the use?

    You built a ship but no one came to drive it. Are you putting it there for decoration?

    "Sir, please rest assured. Since this year, we have recruited a total of about 70,000 sailors from Fujian, Guangxi, Jiangsu and other places. Currently, there are about 50,000 sailors trained and 20,000 more are being trained.  !¡±

    Speaking of this, Chen Houfu's mouth twitched, because he didn't know how much military expenditures he had spent on training this year.

    Of course, this is Chen Houfu¡¯s opinion, but in Zhou Weiguo¡¯s opinion it is almost zero!

    Because the reason why these sailors were able to cultivate so many sailors in more than a year was by smashing them with fuel and shells!

    For more than a year, Chen Houfu was slow in training at the beginning. Zhou Weiguo sent a harsh telegram, saying that his training in the navy was not as good as that of an army general.

    At that time, Chen Houfu was unconvinced and called back to ask Zhou Weiguo how to speed up training.

      The method given by Zhou Weiguo is also very simple!  Go to sea!

    ??Continuously go to sea, and then continue to train with live ammunition!

    At that time, when Chen Houfu saw this method mentioned by Zhou Weiguo, he could only tell Zhou Weiguo tactfully that this method was fast, but it required a lot of fuel and artillery shells, and because of the training of the soldiers, the food had to be increased, and the food cost had to be doubled.  growth of.

    As a result, when Zhou Weiguo saw these things, without saying a word, a large amount of fuel and ammunition were delivered to Zhoushan a few days later.  In addition, daily food rations have also been increased.

    Zhou Weiguo sent a telegram directly: As long as the problem can be solved with fuel and artillery shells, it is not a problem!

    Since then, naval training has been mainly practical.  They often go to sea for training, and each time they go to sea, they consume a lot of fuel and artillery shells.

    This is why Chen Houfu¡¯s lips twitched when he mentioned this.  In one year, even Chen Houfu could not calculate how much fuel and artillery shells were consumed in training these illiterate men into qualified naval sailors!

    Zhou Weiguo calculated in his mind that 50,000 sailors were trained here. Including the sailors given by the system before, after using them, there are still about 20,000 left!

    ¡°That is to say, he still has 70,000 sailors. If Chen Houfu trains those 20,000 sailors, he will be just a sailor.  This is a good number.

    ¡°You can temporarily satisfy some of your needs, and now that you are rich, you can also expand your naval fleet.

    "Well! You did a good job. But you can further let go and train the sailors. Try to train more sailors. I also know that you are too busy alone. I will send you a deputy commander after a while.  , he will assist you when the time comes."

    "Yes! Thank you, Mr.!"

    "Okay, now let me get down to business today. One more thing I called you to Nanjing this time is the expansion of the navy. If you want to train more sailors, you not only need to recruit more people, but also  We need more naval ships, take a look! This is a naval expansion document I compiled!"
