Chapter Three Hundred and Fifty Five [New Ships]
Three hundred miles southeast from Nanwu City in Yue Kingdom, it is the mouth of Zhenze Lake in the sea, and then to the east is Chongming Island in later generations. It is not far from Haicheng, the number one city in China in the future. ====== However, Haicheng is not even a small fishing village, with ponds and swamps everywhere. During the plum rain season, it is cloudy and mist all day long. Idle people can't enter here. Not only are there countless poisonous insects, but also the ferocious pig-porn dragons, who often swim in groups to fight with the sharks on the sea...
No matter how strong Bai Dong had financial resources, he could not build a sea city in this era. In three months, he spent 500,000 yuan to build a semi-natural port and shipyard near the mouth of Wuhu Lake in the future.
Standing on the highest viewing building in the port, you can fully overlook the deep-water port with a 50-3-turn bend and the hot shipyard; such a port plan is unique in this era. Gongshuzhi will drool once when you see it, and then you will encourage your tongue to persuade Bai Dong. Anyway, you have money. As long as you invest another 200,000 or 300,000, the port can be expanded by one third, and you can also recruit more skilled craftsmen to join the shipyard. Gongshu's children are always limited. Nowadays, Gongshu's children south of the Yellow River are all here. Their wages are not small, and the benefits must also be kept up. It is best to have three meals a day, eat meat and drink wine every meal...
Bai Dong ignored this guy. He saw clearly, whether it was the Mo family or the Gongshu, these crazy "scientists" were all born with talents who would increase their budgets. Don't let them know that you have money. Otherwise, they would try their best to make you spend more money... Now they are just wooden boats, not steel ships that often cost tens or millions of tons in later generations. Now this port has high standards and strict requirements. Is there still a need to expand? There is no need to worry about expanding the shipyard. It is not too late to absorb foreign craftsmen after the children of these Gongshu have become experienced.
With the current production capacity, you can build enough ships to Japan Island in a few months, and more than half of them are just "slave ships". Just stuff the ancestors of these Japanese devils into the bottom deck as sardines. Those who can survive are good Japanese devils with strong bodies and usefulness. They are not asking them to be masters. What's the use of building too big ships?
Many people don’t understand why Bai Dong is so cruel. Zi Yu is a person who practices Taoism and seeks immortality. Although he has to rely on Bai Dong to find the overseas fairy mountain in his dream, he still can’t help but feel compassionate. Even Gongzishun is a little reluctant to hear it. However, Bai Dong doesn’t feel sorry for seeing through him, but in fact he is just afraid of defaming his good reputation.
The Japanese problem was not solved by Huairou education. During the prosperous Tang Dynasty, Japanese sent people to worship in the Celestial Empire. During the Song Dynasty, China was the richest country in the world. Japanese even called the Celestial Empire at all times. When they saw the Song people, they would call the Lord Shangguo. But when China was slightly declining, these Japanese who used Chinese characters and learned Chinese etiquette immediately turned against each other. Not only did the Lord Shangguo become a branch, but the land of China also became the back garden they wanted!
‘The wolf nature of this tribe is probably from the Jedi!’
What is the situation in Japan Island? It is lonely on the sea, without any resources, frequent earthquakes and volcanoes will sink to the bottom of the sea sooner or later... This geographical environment determines the natural aggression attribute of the Japanese. No matter how you treat them well or how you educate them, as long as you become weak and powerful one day, they will occupy your land, rush into your home, and bully your sisters!
Bai Dong can educate the Japanese or suppress the current Japan. In fact, he doesn't need to do it. Before the Ming Dynasty, did China suppress the Japanese? But what happened later? Li Shimin and Zhu Yuanzhang were not immortal gods, and Bai Dong was just a time traveler and not a son of the plane. Since it is impossible to guarantee that the tragedy of history will not happen again, what kind of mercy do you have to pity for these wolf-like people who are in the Jedi?
The Tang people and the Song people were too gentle. They jumped onto the "Heaven Kingdom Shangbang" and could not find a ladder. As a result, the Japanese were overwhelmed by the Japanese, and they had the opportunity to wave a butcher knife at China in the future. Bai Dong, such a heavenly country, was not interested in establishing Bai Dong. Now it is the right choice to do things in absolute way. Using thunderbolt methods to the Japanese today is to the hearts of the Bodhisattvas in China in the future!
Even though he made many preparations, it was actually an illusory thing to discover in this era, which probably required countless energy and great sacrifices. Bai Dong was willing to invest a lot of money to build ports, shipyards, and develop navigation. The more he was half the reason for the fact that he wanted to eradicate the evil wolf next to the couch for China in advance!
In order to achieve this goal, Bai Dong was willing to lose everything even if he lost his fortune. Compared with these wolf-like nations hanging on the island, the arms of the Western Regions could still be educated and gentle, because they grew up in the prairie with plump water and grass, with a vast world, open-minded nature, and no toxic heart. This is the brothers of ethnic minorities in the future; but Bai Dong would not be stupid enough to be brothers with the Japanese in the future, even if they are just pitiful primitive people now.
Others didn't realize it. When Gongzi Shun, who was born in a water bandit, saw the hull being built in the shipyard, he widened his eyes. Although the shipbuilding industry in the pre-Qin era was ahead of the times, there was no qualitative breakthrough in structure. The simplest small boat was simply to find a giant tree to hollow out to make a pig trough ship. The large ships along the coast of the river were relatively complex, but they were just square wooden frame structures. The hull of this structure not only had a large blockage surface and was difficult to increase the speed of the ship, but also was very easy to disintegrate when encountering wind and waves in the deep sea. It was still applicable near the sea, but it was more dangerous to reach the depths of the ocean.
Bai Dong mentioned the concept of keels in the drawings for the public losers for the first time. The keels that use the triangular principle and circular contours are like human ribs. As long as they are made of hard and flexible wood, the shipboard is installed layer by layer on the outside, and their ability to resist wind and waves is more than three times that of ordinary ships. Moreover, the hull is closer to streamlined, and with more advanced and scientific multi-layer horizontal and vertical sails, the ship speed and wave breaking ability have been greatly improved. With the inventions of keels and sails, Bai Dong pushed the shipbuilding process of the Warring States Period to the level of the 15th century in Europe in one fell swoop. The ship used by Columbus back then was just like that, and he was not as rich as Bai Zi!
Yue's shipbuilding level was the best in the pre-Qin era. Guiwei Doctor and Lu Zhen naturally understood what this kind of ship meant. However, in the four hundred years since the Spring and Autumn Period, countries have mostly fought for hegemony on land. What's the use of the ship being good? These people living in the "Huaxia Village" naturally do not have Bai Dong's global vision. They don't know what it means once America is discovered. They only feel that Bai Zi is indeed a wealthy man. It's too luxurious to make a huge noise just for a promise to Zi and the old man.
When Ziyu walked on the first new ship to go into the water to test sailing with Maqiao, he finally couldn't suppress his excitement. The white-haired old man was so excited that his face turned red. He stood at the bow of the boat and let out a long roar. Bai Dong suspected that he had achieved Taoism's internal cultivation, otherwise how could his voice be so shrill? Maqiao holding the rudder plate would smile foolishly. He felt that this circular rudder plate was much more reliable than the long rudder. Not only did he take less effort to control this rudder, but he was more accurate; this view
With the strong support of Gongzishun, he thought Bai Dong was going to sail some larger ships, but unexpectedly it was a new type of sea ship that he had never seen before. As the strange sails in ancient times rose, Gongzishun felt that the ship under his feet seemed to have transformed into a living divine object. Looking at the blue water split by the bow and controlling the extremely flexible rudder plate, he felt it was worth it. If he could command such a fleet to sail happily on the sea, it would seem that it would be nothing to be a human trafficker.
"With Baizi's new sea ship, the latitude positioning method and the chart left by his ancestors, can we choose a day to go to the sea?"
Ma Qiao advised Zi and the old man not to scream. He walked over with agile steps and asked about going out to sea. However, Bai Dong shook his head: "Don't be anxious, Mr. Zi, don't worry, now it is the early summer season, and the sea has the most wind and rain. If there are days and nights of wind and rain, how should you distinguish the direction at sea? So we still lack a small thing that can correctly indicate the direction at any time... Doctor Guiwei, has the person sent to Kuaiji Mountain ever returned? Did Mr. Ou Ye have ever put forward the conditions?"
"This... Bai Zi, this Ou Yeliang is so greedy, and there are so many things to ask for..." (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
