Chapter 209: Cooper's Senses
It's been days since he arrived on the ship, and Cooper often thinks he's in a dream.
First of all, needless to say, the steel frame bed was flat and stable, very strong, although 12 people lived in one, but it was far more stable than his own captain's room, and he slept several times in a row.
And then eat, the ship is eating dry food, cooked food, hot food, although a few days ago there was a storm, but there has been no situation of eating raw fish, the cooked fish fillet, are the sashimi after drying, steamed with a steamer, it is hard, but the taste is much better than sashimi.
The kind of fish soup I drank in the big restaurant just now is full of aroma and taste, and it is so delicious that it is hot on my body after drinking, which is a rare enjoyment.
And then there is the domestic water, which actually uses hot water, and it is hot fresh water, which he dare not imagine. After coming to the sea, although his small boat was also loaded with some fresh water, it was not much, and he could only use 1o to come to the day, and if it did not rain during this period, he could only drink seawater to quench his thirst.
Cooper had drunk seawater, it was not very tasty, and it was not very thirst-quenching, so he had to drink constantly and urinate constantly so that he could quench his thirst.
Not only do they use fresh water for cooking, but they also use fresh water for bathing, and there is that kind of strange toilet, which uses fresh water for flushing toilets, basically there is no limit, and you can use it however you want, which shocked Cooper, so many people, how did the captain of this ship get so much fresh water?
After a while, Cooper now had many of his companions on the boat with him, also discussing the things on the ship, and they felt more than himself.
"Hey, where did Mira go?"
Now that Cooper is gone, is he going to look for that kid again?
"Mira, Mira! Which of you saw Mira? ”
Cooper searched the various cabins, searched for a while, and finally saw on the wide deck, near the aft railing. One of the two young people who I am looking for and you are relying on is my daughter Mira who has been looking for a long time.
"Stinky boy, stay away from my daughter!"
Cooper yelled at the man next to Mira and immediately rushed over.
……
The slight sea breeze blows on people's faces, very comfortable, half lying on a chair Tianming, squinting his eyes and enjoying it, his hand caressing the little gray next to him from time to time, feeling the softness and smoothness of its hair.
The starry sky at night is cloudless. Although there is no moon, the night sky is lit up by numerous stars.
Over there, there was a star that was very bright, twinkling and twinking, but according to astronomical knowledge, that star was going through a nova burst.
There is also a red planet reflected in the sky, which is very huge, and it is a "red giant" that can often be seen at night. The size, possibly the size of a blue mercury, is very dazzling red.
There are also such as the earth yellow star and the golden yellow star, which are several times larger than the red giant star. More than a dozen times, but it can only be seen in the daytime, and it is also very shocking.
No matter how beautiful the stars in the sky are, no matter how bright they are. It is not as beautiful as the "Lidong", because two days before dawn, more than 2ooo large pearls were inlaid on the side of the deck of the "Lidong". Inlaid every half a meter, the density on the ship island is even greater, just like a small light bulb, out of the silver light, beautiful, at night, the whole ship becomes a world of colored lights, people linger.
No, there are more than a dozen little couples of Blue Star people leaning near the boat rail, telling sweet words.
"Hey, it feels so numb."
Tianming saw a pair of strange-looking young people hugging each other, and shook his shoulders like an electric shock, feeling really strange, just like seeing two monkeys hugging each other, it was really numb.
Anyway, in the aesthetics of the earthlings, it is impossible to distinguish the beauty and ugliness of the blue star people, and seeing the men and women of the blue stars showing the side of emotional exchange, although it is very numb, but seeing this beautiful scene, Tianming is still very pleased.
"Hey, those guys seem to be arguing?"
……
"Mira, you can't be with him!" Cooper pulled Ramira Road.
"Nope! I like Toyoshi, I'm going to be with him! Mira shook her father's hand.
"You can't marry a civilian, we are all people with status, marrying a commoner will be messy!"
"I don't care if Fuyuyoshi is a civilian or not, I just love being with him!"
Dongji next to him also said: "Uncle, please let me be with Mira, I will give her happiness!" ”
But as soon as he saw Toyoshi, Cooper was angry and yelled at him, "You shameless thief! No matter who my daughter marries, she will not marry a civilian like you, so you should die of this heart! ”
Dongji was originally a peasant in the countryside, and his father didn't want him to stay in the countryside for the rest of his life to farm, so he sent him to a cloth shop in the city as an apprentice, mainly learning to keep accounts and settle accounts. Fuyuyoshi is smart and active, so he meets the store manager's daughter and becomes good friends with her.
The manager of the store was naturally Cooper, and when he showed signs that something was wrong with the two of them, he immediately became furious, and did not hesitate to fire Fuyuyoshi, and warned him: Don't see his daughter again, his daughter can't marry a peasant.
The Blue Star people have a very high sense of hierarchy, and they pay more attention to the right people, and when looking for a partner for their children, the minimum standard is equality of status. Of course, for a woman, she can climb high, but it is almost impossible to marry a peasant or slave with a lower status than her, no matter how good that farmer or slave is.
God's law states that children have the same status as their fathers. As a result of this system, the freedom of marriage has been greatly restricted, and it has become almost commonplace for parents to decide on lifelong events for their children.
Without Cooper's nod, there was little chance of Toyoshi being with Mira.
"Uncle, please, I really like Mira, please let me be with her!" Toyoshi knelt down and pleaded with Cooper.
"Impossible!"
The crowd of onlookers around also came out to discuss.
"It is impossible for these two people to be together, and in our place, the nobles would rather kill their daughter than let her marry a commoner."
"God is God, nobles are nobles, commoners are commoners, slaves are slaves, this is the law made by God." An old man said.
"Fuyuyoshi is fishing with me. He couldn't have married such a beautiful aristocratic lady. ”
"Dongji, you better give up!"
"What's going on here?" Tianming walked over and asked curiously, becoming a member of the onlookers.
Tianming's height of 1.78 meters is too conspicuous in the crowd of 1.45 meters, and Dongji's eyes lit up, and he immediately appeared.
"Master, please help me!" Fuyuyoshi rushed over and knelt in front of Tianming, hoping that his master would help him say a good word.
"What are you talking about?"
Croak. Of course, Tianming couldn't understand what he was saying, and when he was extremely confused, Dongji pulled Mira over and said to her: "Mira, this is my master, a kind and benevolent master with great divine power, he can decide whether we can be together or not, let's plead with him together, right?" ”
Mira also knelt down.
Looking at the couple of men and women kneeling in front of him, he just couldn't understand what they were saying. Tianming also understood what they meant.
This should be called "love".
After thinking about it, Tianming quickly made two rings out of a piece of black iron ore in the ability space and took them out. Let them reach out and put the ring on the second finger of their left hand.
The fingers of the Blue Star people are slender, slightly thinner than those of the earthlings, when Tianming made the ring. The size is a little thinner, and the result is still relatively suitable.
The two of them put their hands together with their fingers. Tianming blessed: "I wish your love will last forever and be happy." ”
"Mira, this is a blessing from God! The host allowed us to stay together! ”
"Great, great!"
The two hugged each other and cried with joy. The people around him sent their blessings, and even Cooper remained silent and never objected again.
On this ship, there are no nobles and commoners, and there is only this powerful captain who dominates Yiqiē! No one dares to make irresponsible remarks about his decision, he is the god who determines the rules.
…… It is said that many years later, the Blue Star people began to spread a custom, many Blue Star men and women in love, once they gave each other rings, especially the black iron ring that symbolizes love, if the other party agreed, then the two of them could walk together and become husband and wife. When the wedding is celebrated in the hall of the church, the priest also personally wears a ring for each couple. What men wear is called "Mira", and what women wear is called "Fuyuji".
And the story of Mira and Dongyoshi, after being adapted into multiple versions, has become an eternal legend......
……
In order to solve this problem, it took Tianming five days to finally install a set of self-made steam turbines on the Lidong.
When the combustion furnace is working, the steam furnace wrapped outside the combustion furnace can produce high-temperature and high-pressure steam, drive the turbine to rotate, and use a transmission shaft to the bottom of the stern, using the principle of gear meshing, and finally transmit the force to the two propeller blades arranged in parallel, driving the propellers to rotate high, discharging the sea water backwards, and using the recoil force to push the hull to travel high.
The steam turbine, with insulation material attached to the outside, can absorb about 7o% of the heat generated in the combustion furnace and convert the heat energy into a maximum of 11ooo horsepower. In other words, if the 8 rocket engines are working at full capacity, plus the steam turbines, a total of 37ooo horsepower can be generated, which is already the power of 2ooo turbofan engines.
In addition, Tianming has carried out some debugging, and he now, under certain conditions, the operating power of the steam turbine is higher than that of the rocket engine! In particular, when the amount of fuel bet was adjusted to one-twentieth of the state, the voyage of the survey ship was measured, and under the thrust of 12o tons of rocket thrust and 22o tons of steam turbine thrust, the ship of the Lidong reached about 1o knots, and the voyage was doubled compared with the state without a steam turbine, but the fuel consumption was reduced by half.
In other words, if the Lidong maintains an economic voyage of 1o knots, 12oo tons of hydrogen and oxygen fuel can be used for 5 hours, which is a great breakthrough.
Moreover, outside the steam furnace of the steam turbine, there is still a water cooling device connected to the fresh water tank, 12oo tons of fresh water, which can absorb the remaining 12-2o% heat, so that the fresh water temperature of the hot water tank can be kept around 85 degrees for a long time, and the fresh water temperature of the cold water tank can also be kept around 45 degrees, and the power and cooling system of the whole ship have also reached a balance.
After observing the situation on the sea surface at a high altitude, Tianming's eyes were set on an unfamiliar sea area 15oo kilometers away.
Standing at the bow of the ship, Tianming pulled out the silver steel sword at his waist, pointed at the northwest, and roared: "Class battleship Lidong, attack!" ”
Rumble! The hull shook, and the eight rocket engines erupted in blue flames.
