Suddenly, an idea occurred to him and he honked the ship's horn.
"Woo! Woo! Woo!" No. 001 destroyer let out a loud roar, echoing throughout the entire navy base.
Allen greeted them.
Immediately, the officers and soldiers on the shore also shouted, as if responding to No. 001.
Allen calmed down and said, "Let's start the construction of the dock now. No. 001 needs to be repaired as soon as possible."
Then he drove No. 001 to the dock of the navy base and into it.
All the staff of the dock ran out to see the ship.
"Is this the number 001 that crashed into the patrol boat of Canla State today?"
"Yes! Yes!"
"This ship is so beautiful! I've fixed boats for half my life, but I've never repaired such a big ship!"
"When can we repair this kind of ship? Even if I die, there is no regret!"
"..."
Of course, Allen didn't know what the dock staff on the shore was thinking.
He was now preparing for the upgrade dock.
After asking Casey, he knew that it would cost one thousand gold coins to build a dock.
In addition, he could also upgrade the dock. This only cost 500 gold coins.
For the time being, gold coins were still very important to him.
The dock of the navy base in Santiago was only equipped with level-1 technology.
And repairing the destroyer required a level-2 dock.
So he decided to upgrade the dock of the navy base in Santiago.
The current dock could only repair a small patrol boat of two thousand or three thousand tons, and it was impossible to repair the destroyer.
What's more, Allen still needed to build a bigger ship in the future. It was impossible to use the dock without upgrading it.
But on second thought, when building No. 001 destroyer, it was so noisy.
If a dock was built in front of everyone, the noise could be imagined.
He didn't want to be the target of public criticism. It was better to keep it a secret.
This required the cooperation of the navy base.
"Contact the navy base and tell them that we are going to expropriate their dock." Allen ordered.
After getting the news, General Shane hurried to find Commander Petro. He didn't dare to make a decision on such a matter.
"What? Expropriate our dock?"
Petro was also confused.
But before he could think for a moment, the message from Allen came again.
A soldier reported, "General, No. 001 destroyer said that he took over the dock to repair the ship, and he will upgrade the dock."
"Well..."
Commander Petro gave the order after thinking for a while.
"Reply to No. 001. We agree. But there is a condition that our people are allowed to study on board."
It was not until Shane heard Petro's words that he realized that the commander deserves his reputation.
It was worthy of the name to be the chief commander.
As long as No. 001 allowed them to study on board, they could get all the information about the ship and the soldiers could learn how to operate the ship.
It was a big win! The price was to upgrade the dock.
This was not a price, but a reward! He could do a business without any cost!
Hearing the conditions of the navy base, Allen smiled. As he expected.
It was impossible for them not to agree with such a good condition.
There was no loss for them just to expropriate the dock. Moreover, he helped them upgrade the dock.
It was no problem for them to ask for studying on board.
Now, there were still many designers studying on No. 001.
