Once the plan was finalized, the family members got busy.
However, there's no need to worry about the small boats; Lu Yuan has stored quite a few kayaks and inflatable boats in the underground warehouse.
These boats are very simple to use and easy to carry, requiring no external modifications.
However, everyone was a complete novice when it came to building large ships. Now that the help of engineers like Shi Quan was no longer available, everything had to be designed and built by themselves.
Although Lu Yuan's computer contained a lot of plans and blueprints for building ships.
However, these ships are suited to different places, and Lu Yuan needs a ship that is very lightweight but can still accommodate many people and a lot of things.
Furthermore, the ship needs to have various rooms and facilities, be very sturdy, and not have a low speed.
Therefore, Lu Yuan searched through all the blueprints but still couldn't find the ship he needed.
"It seems we have no choice but to design it ourselves! But if we design it ourselves, we need to consider too many things, not just the engine, but also various fuel tanks, passenger cabins, cockpits, and protective gear!"
Lu Yuan looked at the newly printed drawings and immediately felt a headache coming on.
"Damn it! This thing is way too much for me to handle by myself!"
Lu Yuan lay back in his chair with a sigh, feeling helpless, and didn't want to look at the blueprints anymore.
After taking a breath of oxygen from the oxygen cylinder next to him, Lu Yuan immediately felt that the confusion in his head had subsided considerably.
Next, Lu Yuan went to the next room and found his father and Xiao Shan's father.
The two were busy looking through some case studies of previous ship construction projects.
There was also a mountain of various blueprints in front of him.
Seeing Lu Yuan enter, both of them showed a hint of helplessness on their faces.
"Looks like you haven't made any progress either!"
Lu Yuan sighed, "Yes! This is simply beyond our capabilities! It seems we need to find a more suitable ship!"
At this moment, the old man adjusted his reading glasses, pointed to a drawing in his hand, and said...
"What do you think of battleships?"
Hearing the old man's words, Lu Yuan, Xiao Shan's father, and Lu's father all looked shocked.
"What? A battleship?"
The blueprints they had been looking at were all for civilian ships; as for military blueprints, there were very few available, and Lu Yuan hadn't even considered that possibility.
It wasn't that he didn't want to build this kind of military-grade warship. First, the size of a battleship wasn't suitable for them. Second, if they wanted to build a battleship, they would need far too many materials, and some of them they didn't even have.
Furthermore, they don't have all the battleship blueprints. These are all in the hands of the military. The blueprints they can get are at most some old ship blueprints that military enthusiasts have found through various channels.
As for the warships of some countries in the world today, they simply don't have the opportunity to acquire these things.
Lu Yuan shook his head with a wry smile and looked at the old man, saying, "Grandpa, you're overthinking it! We simply don't have the capability to build battleships! Besides, even if we had the blueprints, we wouldn't have the opportunity to build them!"
But the old man said softly, "I'm not talking about building our own battleships! We simply can't build those! After all, there are only a few of us! Even if we got Chen Zhongzheng to help us build them, it wouldn't be possible!"
Lu Yuan looked at the old man with a puzzled expression: "Then what do you mean? In the end, it still comes down to no chance, doesn't it?"
The old man took off his reading glasses and smiled: "We don't have them, but our friends do!"
Lu Yuan was stunned for a moment, and suddenly a person appeared in his mind.
"You mean President Freeman?"
"Yes! Who else but him could own his own battleship!"
A hint of joy appeared on Lu Yuan's face, but then he looked at the old man with a dejected expression and said.
"Grandpa! Don't forget! We don't have satellites anymore! Where are we supposed to find them? Besides, we don't even know what their situation is now! We don't even know if they're still alive!"
"Take a look at this! I didn't know how you did your job before!"
After saying that, the old man handed over a newspaper.
Lu Yuan took the newspaper with a puzzled look and glanced at it, then immediately understood what the old man meant.
This newspaper was a special column that Lu Yuan set up when he notified the camp. This newspaper column was a newspaper that collected important information from the satellite communications team and then printed out and distributed to various important departments.
This newspaper was a specially commissioned one for Lu Yuan's office, containing highly important and sensitive information that was not suitable for public dissemination.
At that time, Lu Yuan was too busy with work, so he basically didn't look at the information. Usually, it was the secretariat staff under Wang Mingming who would compile the information and report it to Lu Yuan.
Upon seeing the contents, Lu Yuan was immediately drawn to one line of text.
"The Mexican president has sent an important message: in order to ensure the survival of the people in the country, he has ordered the construction of two hundred warships, which are ready to depart for the European continent immediately!"
Upon seeing this, Lu Yuan slapped his forehead and a smile appeared on his face.
"Haha! That's right, we can go to President Freeman and borrow a battleship!"
"Yes! That's right! But we don't know their current location yet. However, almost half a year has passed. Even if they are moving slowly, they should have reached Europe by now!"
Lu's father glanced at the contents of the newspaper and offered a comment.
"But we're not close to Europe! Besides, how are we supposed to find them?"
The old man waved his hand slightly and said, "Don't forget! We haven't left yet! Maybe we can find other channels! Freeman is just a guess of mine! We don't necessarily have to find him! If we can get in touch with him, maybe we can contact some of the military forces within China and ask for help!"
Xiao Shan's father also said excitedly, "Yes! We've saved so many people before, they'll definitely give us a chance!"
After a moment of contemplation, Lu Yuan immediately nodded: "Alright, in that case, let's try to contact our military headquarters now. After all, Luo Xuan and his men are from the Chinese military! He must know something!"
