Hearing what Elder Gao said, Wang Wenyan smiled reservedly, and he obviously saw a satisfied look on Zhu Youxiao's face. It was when he heard that the salt farm was going to sea to fish and train sailors, and the reason why he called others to explain all this was because he wanted this kind of atmosphere.

What others said was more real and objective, and there was less of his subjective invitation to merit, which could make His Royal Highness the Taisun more satisfied. Sure enough, His Royal Highness looked back at himself with approval. This glance almost made Wang Wenyan float. He knew he was doing the right thing, but he had to keep up the good work and add another fire.

"Your Highness, please come with me here." As he spoke, Wang Wenyan walked to the front to lead the way, and Elder Gao also followed under his greeting.

"Ho, it's mysterious." Zhu Youxiao chuckled lightly and followed, obviously Wang Wenyan did something, and now the invitation is here.

Wang Wenyan led everyone to bypass some shelters and came to a hidden berth. It's in the deepest part of the harbor, and if you don't look carefully, it's easy to miss.

When he just saw the object moored in this berth, Zhu Youxiao's breathing suddenly became short, his eyes widened, staring at the object in disbelief, his eyes were full of surprise and surprise.

"This ......... This is a Galen ship?! Zhu Youxiao's tone trembled a little, anyone who saw something that could not have appeared would be like this.

Moored in this hidden harbor is the ocean-going ship that Zhu Youxiao has been thinking about, the Galen ship. The white soft sails, the wood-colored hull, and the smooth and slender lines all made Zhu Youxin fascinated, only he knew that the meaning of this ship was the future.

Galen Ship,

As the distance shortened, Zhu Youxiao faintly heard a noisy shouting, and looked closely, the Galen ship was not stationary, there seemed to be many people moving on it, and the sails were also falling and rising, or swinging from side to side.

"What is this?" Zhu Youxiao looked at Wang Wenyan suspiciously, but the latter had a mysterious expression, and just smiled slightly.

"Why don't Your Highness go over and see for yourself."

"It's good!" Zhu Youxiao didn't care, and walked over there quickly, this unexpected thing obviously made him interested. This is the Galen ship, the most mainstream warship and ocean-going ship in the West at present, both in combat and cargo capabilities.

When they got closer, everyone really saw that this was indeed a Galen ship, but it was almost half smaller than the one that Zhu Youxiao picked up, and it was only about 400 materials. The material of the Ming Dynasty described the ship as not the same as the displacement used by the modern ship, which are two completely different concepts, and the conversion between the two is about two to one, that is to say, the 400 material Galen ship in front of him, according to the displacement, is 200 tons.

When Zhu Youxiao squinted his eyes, Elder Gao kept introducing him, and he himself kept combining the knowledge and pictures in his mind to compare the ship in front of him.

Obviously, the ship in front of him is a small Galen ship, even if it is the predecessor it copied, the ship picked up by Zhu Youxiao, it is only a displacement of 400 tons, and it still belongs to a small Galen ship, but it is a smaller and larger one. Medium-sized ones have a displacement of 500 to 800 tons, while large ones have a displacement of 900 to 1,200 tons.

With Xu Xinsu's ability and connections, it is not difficult to search for the Galen ship from Western countries, but it is estimated that he does not have many in his hands, at most one or two, and he also lost one in Tianjin. It's no wonder that he kept coming to Zhu Youxiao for trouble, even if there was no instigation and tandem of Huainan salt merchants, he probably wouldn't let go of Tianjin Salt Farm easily, without him, he was distressed.

The loss is so big, you always have to find something to make up for it. However, if he knew that the proprietor behind this salt farm was the imperial grandson of the Ming Dynasty, he probably wouldn't have the courage to ask for trouble.

Obviously, judging from the way he offended Zhu Youxiao by his continuous attacks for five years, the Huainan salt merchant who contacted him did not tell him the truth, otherwise he would not dare to come to Zhu Youxiao for trouble if he was a guts.

Unlike Li Dan's foundation in Japan, Xu Xinsu's foundation is obviously in the Fujian mainland, or in the officialdom of Fujian, if he knew the truth, he would not have the courage to offend the pinnacle of feudal officialdom, the future emperor.

On the small Galen ship, there were young sailors crawling to and fro among the intricate soft sail masts, bolting cables, while on deck stood a Caucasian man, roaring loudly, and judging by his not-so-standard Chinese, he seemed to be training the young Chinese sailors.

This Caucasian instructor was found by Wang Wenyan from Macao with great effort, and after Zhu Youxiao intended to build a shipyard, he lined up a group of people to go to Macao, Guangdong, where to recruit Western shipwrights and sailors. Since there has been no eyebrows on this matter, Wang Wenyan has never reported it.

It wasn't until early this year that he sent to Guangdong returned with a few Caucasians. At the beginning, Wang Wenyan sent out twenty people, and two of them were his younger brothers when he was the cell boss before, but only half of them came back, and only one of the two younger brothers came back.

Wang Wenyan said it lightly, but Zhu Youxiao can fully imagine the hardships and hardships in this, a few northerners, who ran to Guangdong, Macao, where they are not familiar with their lives, and the mountain bandits and bandits along the way, not to mention the checkpoint government, just a few thousand miles of bumpy travel can cost people half their lives.

Not to mention the subsequent launch of the event in Macau, which was extremely hard, no wonder it took three or four years and only brought back three Westerners.

"Damn, why didn't I think of Macau, I didn't think of recruiting some talent from there." When Wang Wenyan said this, Zhu Youxiao patted his forehead very annoyed. He was still limited by his own thinking, and he thought of everything to farm and develop by himself, even if he lacked personnel in this field, he only thought of looking for it in his own country, and completely forgot about the group of people who were very active in China at this time - missionaries.

At this time, most of the missionaries who were able to come to China without fear of hardships and dangers were the kind of people who had firm beliefs and were very pious, and they really came for the mission and wanted to spread the glory of God, and in order to please the rulers of China at this time, they often had very exquisite astronomical calendars, mathematics and physics, and even practical skills such as making guns, guns and ships.

With Wanli's love for Zhu Youxiao, although he has also beaten and warned, it is still very easy to get some Western missionaries to come over, as long as a holy decree goes down, it is strange that those people do not cry and rush to post it.

However, just annoyed for a while, Zhu Youxiao calmed down again, thinking about it carefully, even if there were a few more missionaries, there would be no improvement in his current situation, and there was not much knowledge in his mind about guns and cannons, but it was no worse than those priests, enough to guide the craftsmen in China now. But the point is that he doesn't have the space to make it, and there is an eye behind him that keeps staring at him, so that he doesn't dare to relax.

As for shipbuilding, Wanli was allowed to do so, and there was no carda, but he was never able to complete the construction of the shipyard, and it was burned and destroyed by pirates, even if there were missionaries who would cause it, there was no place to play. As for the closed docks in the harbor, they can only build small ships of four or five hundred materials, but cannot build large ships.

Under the overlapping influence of various factors, it has caused the current situation that Zhu Youxiao can only be trapped in Beijing and earn silver. Fortunately, these constraints are rapidly disintegrating as Wanli's body gradually weakens.

Wang Wenyan and Gao Lao next to him looked at Zhu Youxiao strangely, not knowing what the expression on his face meant with regret and relief for a while. However, Wang Wenyan didn't dare to ask questions, but instead learned from the knights around him, turned his head away, and didn't look at him.

It's better not to pay attention to the affairs of the superiors, otherwise you won't know why you died when the time comes.

After Zhu Youxiao woke up from his thoughts, Wang Wenyan turned his head, pretended not to see anything, and opened his mouth again.

"The one who is roaring is said to be the first mate of a merchant ship of the Great Franco, and it seems that he has been recruited because the merchant ship has been robbed by pirates and thus stranded in Macao."

The big Buddha machine is the Ming Dynasty's name for Spain, this title is based on the franc machine, that is, Portugal, celebrities rely on the relationship between the two countries, but after knowing that Portugal is part of Spain, they will press the name.

The pride and contempt in this is incomprehensible to the Chinese in later generations, and it is a kind of arrogance that the real Celestial Empire overlooks all nations.

"After this person came, he just solved what Elder Gao and them were talking about...... Cover...... The controversy over the sails of the Galen ship, and then the mast shape of the one they described, made the imitation of the four-hundred-material boat. Wang Wenyan pointed and explained the cause and effect in detail.

"After about half a year of training, use this cover ...... The Lun ship and the salt works have trained about a hundred qualified sailors, who are almost proficient in handling these complex masts and spinnakers. Wang Wenyan said with some pride, of course, his words were also full of the flavor of invitation.

It's just that Zhu Youxiao didn't notice these at all, and his eyes were all about the smallest Galen ship. There are crews, instructors, craftsmen, missionaries, and more importantly, the detailed information in his mind, and the most wonderful thing is that Wanli has no energy to pay attention to him at this time, and can gather himself with three thousand spearmen to resist the attack of pirates.

Build, must build, shipyard must be built.

Build, must build, must build.

Zhu Youxiao snorted and panted, constantly thinking in his mind, he even regretted his timidity at this time, if he let go of his hands and feet and protected the shipyard as soon as possible, it is estimated that the new warships have been launched now.

Of course, this is just Zhu Youxiao's assumption, shipbuilding is not a simple matter, just the preparation of wood is quite cumbersome, and the wood for shipbuilding is not directly cut down in the deep mountains and old forests, that is, it can be used only after being dried in a specific place for a few years. It's not as Zhu Youxiao thought at all, the sooner you come, you can build the ship early.
