Chapter 1045: .Steam Steamer (1/5)

Schroeder showed a photo of a small steamer standing quietly in the corner of the harbor.
The ship looks only ten meters long, with a simple shape and vicissitudes of planks, full of the feeling of the times. Compared with the surrounding ships, a large chimney is erected in the middle of the ship, so that although it is not large, it has a sense of standing up.
Looking at the photo, Wang Bo asked: "Is this a steam ship?"
Schroder nodded with a smile: "Yes, Mr. Mayor, it is the White Horse Talang, a steam engine ship that once served in the Dover Tourism Group. You know, the Dover Tourism Group went bankrupt early this year. Their assets were auctioned off by the bank, and this ship is in our hands. "
Wang Bo understands why the four of them said that the boat is suitable for sunset town, because the boat originally serves tourist companies, and the performance is very good. If you let it come to Lake Hawea, it is a ready-made tourism project.
There are only a few yachts, kayaks and small wooden boats on Lake Hawea, and this steam engine travel mode is still blank.
"After I came to Sunset Town, I saw that your town is developing very quickly, but he seems to lack a bit of history. I think it would be better if there was a White Horse on the Wave," Schroeder said.
The steam engine ship really has a long history. In 1763, Joffrey built the world's earliest steam ship "Poroskafi", but after 30 minutes of sailing, the steam boiler on board exploded.
The real solution to the marine steam engine was James Watt, who invented the double-cylinder steam engine in 1765. In 1768, he cooperated with Matthew Bolton, owner of the Birmingham Turbine Works, to develop a special-purpose steam engine for ship propulsion. This is the Bolton-Watt engine commonly used in the early steam engine ships in the world. After the steam engine, a steam ship appeared.
In this way, although the first steam engine ship performed poorly, the potential was great. After the genius Watt invented the steam engine, the industrial revolution on the ship broke out.
In the 19th century, all oceans were dominated by steamboats. Since then, sailing ships have entered the ship museum or become competitive events.
However, due to the large size, low power, and low efficiency of steam engines, steam turbines have also been gradually phased out. The common power units of modern ships are internal combustion engines and steam turbines.
Seeing this steam turbine ship, Wang Bo got interested and asked, "Is the sailing ability and safety of this ship OK?"
Schroeder nodded: "Absolutely no problem. Actually, this was first photographed by a friend of mine. I thought about this after enjoying the singing of the sunset band the night before, so I bought it on behalf of our company. Come down. "
"The album of" Roaring Singing "is too rude, especially mv, we need to re-produce. There is no doubt that the ship and the main body of the album are in harmony."
Wang Bo nodded and said, "You want Ryan to see them on the ship, right?"
"Yes."
"But this is not to send them a ship directly? How much is this ship? At least millions, right?" Wang Bo asked in confusion.
Schroder smiled and said, "No, it doesn't need to be so expensive to buy a new boat. Besides, this is an auction asset collateral. My friend won it for 120,000 yuan, and then I spent twelve. 55,000 yuan. "
"So cheap?" Wang Bo said in surprise. "Does your friend's company still have this kind of ship?"
Schroeder shrugged. "Suppose, there were four boats parked when I bought it. I don't think he would sell it for such a day or two."
Pharaoh suddenly became interested: "That's good. You might as well contact me with your friends. I can take over these ships if he intends to sell them."
Schroder yelled, "Mr. Mayor, are you serious?"
Of course, Pharaoh is serious. He thinks that this ship is a good tourism project and can further develop the resources of Lake Hawea.
Schroeder made a phone call and quickly replied: "The remaining four ships, if you are willing to pack and buy them, give him a total of 600,000 yuan."
The price is acceptable and can be talked about, but he has to see the condition and status of these ships, at least they have to be able to sail in order to have purchase value.
The following two talked about the steam engine ship. Wang Bo wanted to know more exact information. The four of Radi looked at the two who were talking fiercely there, and finally one of them could not help but screamed: "Not like this Chief, we are the protagonists! "
Wang Boruo scratched his head: "Yes, yes, but haven't your affairs been resolved? Congratulations on joining Act Records, Sunset Town will always be your hometown. Whenever you want to come back, the town will open the door to you."
Lane said: "We will often return to the boss, it is the most comfortable to stay in the town, we are going to make a lot of money, the newly built villa left us a set of ..."
"It was wrong, it was four sets," Tutu corrected. "The four sets next to each other."
With a wave of Wang Bo, Haha laughed: "No problem, four villas, the internal price is sold to you."
The sales of villas are really good. This has not been released yet. Just for promotion, there are already a dozen sets of bookings.
Just before leaving, Lancaster also ordered a villa, even the deposit.
Wang Bo entertained Schroder and other act record company employees for a big meal, letting them taste the delicious ingredients from the ranch on a fall day.
Schroder wiped the oil in his mouth and sighed: "No wonder the sunset cows and sunset sheep are so expensive. This is really good value for money. I decided, and my children will eat sunset beef in the future."
The four of them weren't leaving the sunset town so quickly, and there were still many things to be transferred. After all, they had been managing the Flame Mountain Bar, and Wang Bode had found someone to transfer to them.
When Schroder got the answer he wanted, he went back to Wellington first. He could go back quickly because Wang Bo took him by helicopter.
Under the guidance of Schroder, the helicopter landed in the open area of ​​Wellington Harbor. A burly man with red hair was waiting for them. This was the owner of the steamship, Rodt Platon.
After a brief greeting between the two parties, Rodter took them to a corner of the port, where small ships were docked.
Five steam engine wheels docked together, they are about the same size, but different in style, different colors, white, bronze, brown and black.
It is one thing to see from the photos, and another thing from the near future. After seeing these ships, Wang Bo found some details that could not be found from the photos. (To be continued.)
