The Royal William Shipyard in spring is still so deserted. A small number of shipyard employees are still employed, and they are still working hard to maintain the facilities and equipment in the factory. But today, a group of people came to this shipyard.

Among these people were officials of the German government, representatives of the Allied Powers, and several foreign military officers wearing dark blue navy uniforms. They inspected the entire shipyard under the leadership of the shipyard director Fred.

"Everyone, this dock we are currently in is the largest dock in the shipyard, and it is also our latest dock. It is 250 meters long and 45 meters wide. It is equipped with a large gantry crane capable of lifting 240 tons and can build 50,000 tons. The huge ship is also the pride of our shipyard."

Fred explained the facilities of the shipyard to several officers in navy uniforms in front of him. Several naval personnel listened to his explanation and exchanged ideas with each other from time to time. It's just that he never responded to Fred's words, and he was used to it a long time ago.

"Everyone, let's go to the plate factory next. Where can we find our latest plate machines. These machines are still new machines installed only 15 years ago. They were prepared to take over the Mackensen-class battlecruisers. Who knows that there is no such machine in the order? The name of our shipyard."

When several naval officers heard Fred talking about the Markenson-class battle cruise, their eyes lit up, but then they covered it up.

"Then please lead the way."

The leading naval officer immediately followed Fred's words and asked the other party to lead the way. Then the group followed Director Fred to every corner of the shipyard, and they also personally inspected the shipyard's equipment.

To patrol the shipyard with great fanfare, it is certainly not hidden from the shipyard employees. Bern and his party saw these people patrolling in the workshop.

After these people left, Charlotte immediately said to his colleagues: "This is coming, I didn't lie to you. These people definitely came to see the shipyard, and it is estimated that they are not far from the demolition."

Hearing what Charlotte said, the shadow of every worker present was overwhelmed. They are silently mourning for this shipyard, and they are also silently mourning for their destiny.

After hearing what Charlotte said, Berne said: "Don't say Charlotte, everyone has been working in the shipyard for many years, and everyone feels uncomfortable. We do the work at hand, and the rest can only be arranged by God."

Bern's words made everyone's heart heavier, and they felt that they lacked energy to work. In fact, it is the same in Berne. At present, the situation in China is really losing a job, and I don't know where to find it.

The voice of Berne and others is also the heart of the current shipyard employees, for the sudden large group of people in the shipyard. Everyone has a shadow in their hearts, but they also know that they and others have no way to prevent the possibility of the shipyard being sold, but they are still in silence for themselves and the shipyard.

In fact, they are right. These naval officers are from Romania. When the Romanian side learned that the Royal William Shipyard was to be sold as royal property, Edel, the king, immediately thought of the Romanian Navy. For the navy that has been left out in the cold, Edel still feels a little guilty. So after learning the news, I immediately asked the Admiralty to organize personnel to check the shipyard facilities.

The Secretary of the Navy, Lieutenant General Lomodan, who received the good news, and Major General Nestacu who returned to Bucharest overnight, worked out a list of personnel. It is completely mobilized elite soldiers and generals of the Navy to complete this task. Because they knew that they really wanted to move this shipyard to Romania, the navy's good days were coming.

The reason is very simple. The relocation of a large shipyard where tens of thousands of people can build battleships can greatly enhance the strength of the navy. If it is not for the development of the navy, is it necessary for His Majesty to ask them to check it out. This is a blatant matter of lice on the bald head.

Therefore, Colonel Jacobs, Chief of the Naval Equipment Division, Lieutenant Colonel Mirel from the Naval Design Division, and a group of the best technical talents in the Navy were put on the list by themselves.

And today's inspection is also a few responsible, and the results are very satisfactory to them. Most of the facilities of the shipyard are well-preserved, especially the core equipment is carefully maintained.

"Today we saw the shipyard and it was quite good. I heard from Director Fred that many facilities of this shipyard were only purchased in the past few years."

Colonel Jacob sat on the sofa and told his colleagues how he felt today.

"Yes, the shipyards that Germany wants to dismantle are more advanced than ours. This makes us feel a huge gap with the maritime powers."

Lieutenant Colonel Mirel saw the huge gap in the Romanian navy from this shipyard.

"The gap will gradually decrease. Starting from this shipyard, Romania will also have a manufacturing capacity of more than 10,000 tons of warships?"

Colonel Jacob's words made Lieutenant Colonel Mirel think of a possibility. "Have your majesty finally pay attention to the navy?"

"I didn't say anything, but I heard from the minister and commander that the navy's good days may be coming."

"If this is the case, I hope to dismantle a few more large shipyards. In this way, our Romanian shipbuilding capacity will rise sharply."

"Listen to the chief guard next to your Majesty that this may not be a big deal."

"Where is the reason?"

"The other shipyards are private and not so easy to dismantle."

In fact, the discussion between the two people is correct. The Allies are very happy to sell German shipyards, especially the British side is eager to sell all German shipyards. The threat of the High Seas Fleet to the British Empire~www.readwn.com~ These gentlemen can be vividly seen.

However, most shipyards in Germany are private industries, so they have nowhere to buy. But the inability to dismantle these shipyards does not mean that there is no other way to restrain them. Because of helping Germany build warships and imposing fines for war, plus the damage to the German economy caused by the Versailles indemnity, these shipyards are currently living a difficult life.

The Royal William Shipyard, the royal industry, does not need to be polite. When Romania expressed its desire to move the shipyard to China, Britain and France quickly agreed. At the same time, for the purpose of wooing Romania, the William Royal Shipyard was sold at a low price. In a word, as long as Romania wants German equipment, then dismantle it. The two countries can't wait to dismantle all the equipment in Germany and sell them for money to compensate for their losses.

Under this circumstance, Romania's work in Germany went very smoothly. If Edel didn't have enough money, and considering the rise of Germany in the future, he really wanted to pack all these devices back.

According to post-event statistics, Romania shipped back equipment worth 20 billion marks from Germany in 1920. The money did not fall into the hands of the German government, and was collected by Britain and France as indemnities. This caused more grievances among the German people in Britain and France, and made the Weimar government quite embarrassed. Because workers are dissatisfied (no work), farmers are dissatisfied (most of them are offset in indemnities), capitalists are dissatisfied (the economic depression does not make money), soldiers are dissatisfied (because they signed the Treaty of Versailles), scholars are dissatisfied (lost in the war) The later punishment is too heavy). It can be said that the people of all levels in Germany are dissatisfied with the Weimar government, but this government is recognized by Britain and France and other countries, so they can't help it no matter how angry they are.
