Great Power Industry: You're a private company building an aircraft carrier?

Upon hearing the price of scrap metal, Liu Zhijie was truly impressed.

They wanted the gas turbine, which did seem like they were getting a free ride. Qin Chuan would never agree to that, even if he outwardly agreed, he would secretly use all sorts of methods to leave them speechless.

Now that they no longer intend to take advantage of the situation and want to cooperate with Laiyang Factory in a down-to-earth manner, Qin Chuan has once again shown his sincere side.

Although the ship was bought at scrap metal prices, the total costs of transportation and dismantling mean that if it were treated as scrap metal, it would actually result in a loss.

Steam turbines are very sturdy and can still be used after being disassembled, for example, as the power system of a power plant. They are worth at least five times the price of scrap metal. Even if they are disassembled and sold as junk, steam turbines contain a lot of rare metals, which is definitely more valuable than scrap metal.

Now, Qin Chuan is actually willing to sell them scrap metal at the price of scrap metal; that's quite a show of sincerity.

"Thank you, Engineer Qin!"

"You're welcome. After you take it back, do the surveying and replication. If our navy wants to build aircraft carriers in the future, we'll have the main engine. Good luck!"

"Ah."

"Engineer Qin, let's all have lunch together in the county town! Our Bingcheng Steam Turbine Factory is treating everyone, and I want to toast you a few times!"

"it is good."

Around noon, Raimov arrived from the construction site of the gas turbine test stand.

At this moment, the scrap metal on the deck had begun to be unloaded, and his eyes were full of anticipation: "Qin, where is the gas turbine? Unload it quickly, and while you're at it, call your naval leaders over!"

"Okay, that's what I was thinking too. This matter has been dragging on for too long, we need to make a decision quickly. By the way, is the test bench ready?"

"It will be ready soon, in another three to five days."

"Okay, in three to five days, I'll call the naval leaders over, demonstrate the performance to them, and try to get them to place an order!"

“Yes, once we get the deposit, we’ll pay back the public relations expenses you’ve advanced!” Raimov was also overjoyed; in his eyes, this was the final step.

"Unloading will take some time. Why don't you go and tinker with the test bench first?"

"it is good!"

After seeing Raimov off, Qin Chuan could go eat, but it wasn't appropriate for him to go alone.

"Construction, where's Antonina?"

"Over there at the rolling mill site."

The rolling mill site? What was she doing there?

Qin Chuan frowned. He had originally planned to have Li Jianshe go and call someone, but after thinking about it, he decided to go and take a look himself.

The sound of pile drivers echoed across the construction site. Behind a pile of red bricks, Antonina successfully found Yang Xue.

"Little sister, do you like my boss?" Antonina's first words were clearly hostile.

Yang Xue was taken aback, not expecting this foreign woman to be so direct. Wang Hui's words flashed through her mind, and after a moment, she smiled and said, "Yes, what's wrong?"

"I advise you to give up on this idea."

"Why?" Yang Xue's face still wore a bright smile. Although she had heard many legends about Antonina, including her performance in the coal mine, she was not afraid.

She even wondered what Qin Chuan's attitude would be if she were really hit by this secretary.

"Because Qin likes men."

All her thoughts were interrupted instantly. Yang Xue felt a buzzing in her head. This answer was completely unexpected!

Qin Chuan likes men? Yang Xue didn't ask a second time; this "like" definitely referred to that kind of attraction.

Antonina was very satisfied with Yang Xue's reaction. How about it? Her worldview, outlook on life, and values ​​are all shattered, aren't they?

“So, it’s very difficult to be with Qin,” Antonina said. “It’s not something a young girl like you can do. Leave it to me. I’ll find a way to change Qin’s sexual orientation and make him a normal person. Would you like to be with me?”

"Together with what?"

"Sleep with him together, let's let him experience the pleasure of being with a woman. You seem to know nothing, I'll teach you..."

Wow…

Suddenly, a row of bricks collapsed with a loud noise, startling both of them. They turned around and saw a small hill made of red bricks, and a person standing behind it.

“Qin, what are you doing…” Antonina was stunned.

“Antonina, you did a good job this time. I was originally planning to double the bonus I promised you, but now… you dared to speak ill of the leadership behind their backs. Let me tell you, the million-dollar bonus is gone! If you think this is unfair, you can leave…”

Qin Chuan's voice trembled with anger. Damn it, this was even more shameful than admitting that a man was impotent. This Antonina actually said she liked men!

I guess Er Mao said the same thing to Najesta, right? So, the two of them made a pact to get themselves drunk, and then...

It's one thing to say it over there, since the West is very open and accepting of Brokeback Mountain, but this is the East!

Although the country has been open to the world for more than a decade and there are some open-minded people in society, after several rounds of trials, many scoundrels have also been exposed, which shows that society is still very conservative in this regard and has a very weak acceptance of Brokeback Mountain.

What's more, she actually said these things to Yang Xue!

Yang Xue was born into an official family and should have received a strict education from a young age, so it was even more impossible for her to accept such a thing! Antonina still doesn't understand Eastern women and actually wanted to use the same method to win over Yang Xue, and even do that kind of thing with Yang Xue.

What a joke!

Oh no, what will Yang Xue's reaction be next? Will she buy a train ticket back to the capital immediately, or will she react more strongly?

It's normal to have a reaction, but the lack of reaction and the faint smile on his face left Qin Chuan speechless. What did that mean?

You don't really think I'm gay, do you?

Qin Chuan's unease grew stronger, fearing that Yang Xue would speak up to smooth things over in the next second, saying that there was nothing wrong with homosexuality, that it was a refined taste of ancient literati, and that their pageboys were often male prostitutes, and so on.

Antonina spoke first: "Boss, didn't you tell me yourself?"

Qin Chuan was even more speechless. No, he had to change the subject quickly. Right, what was he here for again?

"Antonina, you've done a great job this time. The Navy wants to treat us to dinner. Come with me. Consider this meal your reward for your hard work; don't even think about the bonus..."

Antonina's expression was complicated. Half a million dollars, no, a million dollars, just gone like that?

"Ahem, um, Translator Yang, you're busy, we'll be going now." Qin Chuan greeted Yang Xue awkwardly, and then was about to turn around when another voice came from behind.

"Engineer Qin, I just heard something I shouldn't have heard. Aren't you going to use something to shut me up?"
