Chapter 374: The Clipper Ship Comes Out

"Clippers...... Is it really built? ”

Although Li Yang and Fusu had vaguely guessed that it might be the successful creation of the flying clippers, they couldn't help but be excited and happy when they heard what the public loss book said.

Because...... The clipper ship is so important to Daqin!

Of course, these words also attracted several other ministers of state in the inner hall, Li Si and Feng Zao and others, who also hurriedly put down their affairs and walked out. They all asked, "Clippers...... Built? ”

"Returning to His Royal Highness, and all the adults, after half a year of hard work, Xia Guan is fortunate to live up to his life, and now the clipper ship has indeed been successfully built." The public loser nodded solemnly.

"Well, that's great!" Fusu was overjoyed and applauded.

Li Si and others were also overjoyed.

Li Yang was also very excited, and hurriedly asked, "Is the clipper boat launched?" What is the speed? ”

Yes, that's all that matters.

Because the reason why the clipper can be called a clipper ship, in addition to the long and sharp curve of the bow like a scissor-shaped head column, the more important reason is that its speed is fast, so that its sharp curve scissor-shaped head column can split water and cut waves at sea, so it is called a clipping ship.

In other words, just building a sea ship with a shape similar to a clipper is not a success, but it requires fast sailing speed to be considered a successful clipper.

The official book naturally understood what Li Yang meant, and immediately replied: "The clipper ship has been trialed, and its speed is three times faster than that of the previous sea ships, which can be called god speed!" ”

Speaking of this, the public loser himself became excited, and at the same time he was full of admiration and admiration for Li Yang. Because this kind of sea ship so selected was designed by the town monarch in front of him.

Casually proposing some improvements, you can make the sea ship get a leap forward, this kind of earth-shattering, crying ghosts, outstanding wisdom, the public loser has to look up to it.

"Triple it! Sure enough, haha, it worked! ”

Hearing that the speed of the ship had increased by as much as three times that of previous sea vessels, Li Yang finally couldn't help but laugh excitedly. Because this has fully demonstrated that the success of the clipper is almost the same as that of the clipper in the 18th century.

This is a cross-era leap in Daqin's navigation industry!

Although everyone had heard Li Yang say before that the speed of the clipper ship was very fast, but now when they heard the public loss book say that the speed of the clipper ship was three times that of the previous sea vessels, everyone was stunned by this!

One by one, their mouths opened wide and showed shocked expressions.

"Three times faster? Oh my God! This...... Doesn't this mean that it only takes two months for the clipper ship to go to Shaohao? Li Si, Feng Zai and the others were directly speechless in shock.

Li Yang nodded: "According to the distance drawn by Xu Fu, it is indeed two months." ”

Hiss......

Everyone gasped.

Everyone looked at each other, and everyone was shocked.

With such a fast speed, what kind of breakthrough is this, and what kind of meaning it will represent, everyone can imagine in their hearts.

This is not just to shorten the time for Daqin to reach Shaohao, but it can make great progress in the entire era!

It is precisely because of this understanding that everyone knows that the advent of the clipper ship will not make a lower contribution to society than the previous printing and papermaking technology.

Thinking of this, everyone cast admiring glances at the public loss book.

Fusu happily patted the shoulder of the public loss book and praised: "Okay, it's really good, the public loss book, you have made a great contribution to Daqin this time!" ”

The public lost the book and hurriedly said: "The minister doesn't dare to be, if it weren't for the Zhenguojun who designed the flying clipping boat, how could the minister create such a divine object, and in terms of merit, the Zhenguo monarch should be the first to take the lead." ”

Li Yang smiled: "Don't be modest, you can successfully build the clipper ship, you are indispensable!" ”

Fusu nodded: "That's right, Taifu and Gong Lose Book have made great contributions, haha!" ”

Everyone also nodded one after another, and together they waved Li Yang and the public loss book to show their respect.

Several ministers of state saluted themselves, which frightened the public loser, and hurriedly bowed deeply and returned the salute.

Fusu said: "What would such a speedy sea ship look like?" I really want to see you! ”

Li Si, Feng Zai and the others also nodded with deep sympathy, their eyes full of anticipation.

However, at this moment, the public loss book seemed to remember something, and hurriedly said: "By the way, Your Highness, this time the minister also brought a model of the flying clipping boat." Even if you don't go to Shandong, you can see exactly the same clippers. ”

"Oh? It's true! ”

As soon as he heard this, Fusu was about to jump up in surprise, and hurriedly asked, "Where is it, show it to Lone!" ”

Of course, Li Si and the others were also overjoyed when they heard about the model of the clipping boat, and their eyes were full of curiosity and expectation.

"Your Highness, wait a minute!"

He spoke, then turned and walked out of the hall, beckoning to the outside, and two guards carried a wooden box in.

This wooden box is quite large, and apparently it should contain a model of a clipper ship.

"Inside this box is a model of a clipper."

Sure enough, as soon as the wooden box was lifted in front of everyone, the public loss book pointed to the wooden box and said.

"Quick, open!"

Fusu couldn't wait to see the shearboat, so he hurriedly signaled the forbidden army to open the wooden box. However, it is estimated that he was worried that the forbidden army would damage the model of the clipping ship in the wooden box, so he couldn't help but change his words: "Take your time, be careful, don't damage the model!" ”

"Whoa!"

The two Janissaries should be, and then carefully unpack the wooden box.

Soon, from inside the wooden box, a slender model of a sailing ship with a sharp protruding tip and sails on the mast was lifted.

This model was carefully placed by the forbidden army on the desk in the hall of the State Council.

Everyone quickly gathered around and looked at the imposing sea ship in front of them.

I saw that the entire clipper model was about four feet long and more than three feet high. The long, sharpened curved scissor-shaped head column has a race-like posture, giving people a sense of speed at a glance that splits water and shears waves.

The rear of the ship gradually becomes less and more relaxed, and the sloping waterline transitions harmoniously to a narrow round tail, harmoniously blending in with the graceful bow shape.

The clipper was equipped with a four-masted fully equipped sail with a tall mast that reached 3/4 of the length of the hull, and a moon sail and a strug sail were hung on the top mast sail. In addition, there are overhang booms on both sides of the ship. The public loss book on the side also explained that it is called a wing sail bar, which can be hung with wing sails, which increases the lateral extension area of the sail and improves the navigation speed.

Looking at this new type of sea ship with a slender shape, a sharp and protruding nose, and a mast full of sails and wing sails, Fusu and Li Si and the others were simply shocked by its amazing appearance and momentum.

His eyes lit up, and his mouth was amazed, and for a long time, he didn't want to take his eyes off the model of the clipper.

To be honest, although Li Yang has seen pictures of flying clippers in the previous world, and he has also seen the models of flying clippers in film and television works, he ...... When I saw this model in front of me, I was still amazed by it!

Of course, what amazed Li Yang was not the shape of the clipper boat, but the model...... It is simply a masterpiece that can be called a national treasure.

Li Yang found that he had never seen such an amazing model.

A huge model five feet long and nearly four feet high, every detail is so delicate and perfect, and it is also handmade according to the proportions of a real clipper, which gives people a visual conflict, which is shocking.

Li Yang believes that if this thing can be left to future generations, it will definitely amaze the people of the world.

"This ...... Did you make the model yourself? Li Yang couldn't help but ask Xiang Gong to lose the book.

The public loser nodded: "Yes." ”

Li Yang stretched out his thumb in admiration and exclaimed: "This thing can be used as an heirloom!" ”

Fusu, Li Si and others, hearing this, finally turned around and nodded again and again: "Beautiful, it's so beautiful." ”

Li Yang said: "Your Highness, this model of the flying clipper ship, the minister thinks it should be collected!" ”

"It's going to be collected, it's so beautiful! Or...... Just collect it to the lonely palace! Fusu nodded sympathetically, but said a shameless sentence.

Li Yang was directly speechless.

"The minister believes that Daqin should build a museum to collect and present national treasures." Li Yang suggested.

"That's a great idea, okay, let's build a museum and keep this model in the museum! Ha ha. Although Fusu felt that it was a pity that this model could not be placed in his own palace, he still applauded Li Yang's suggestion.

After saying this, Li Yang then asked the public loss book: "The public loss book, now that the flying clipper has been built, then the next batch of construction must also be accelerated." ”

Fusu also nodded: "What Taifu said is very true, it is best to build a hundred clippers as soon as possible in half a year, it is really not good, fifty must be guaranteed." ”

Who knows, as soon as these words fell, I heard the public loss register: "Fifty flying clippers have been built." ”

Ga!

Everyone was directly stunned!
