Time is in a hurry, and the Spring Festival of the sixth year of the Apocalypse is coming.

Palace

"Big brother, I'm here for a gift."

Zhu Youzhen shouted and rushed into Changchun Palace.

Shaking his head helplessly, Zhu Youxiao put down the parts in his hand.

That's just a little bit worse, it seems that there is no hope of completing the hot sample of the "Victory" today.

Xiao Wu, what kind of novel gift did this bring him?

Zhu Youxiao, who knew Xiao Wu very well, knew that as long as Xiao Wu rushed to him with such a shout, then he must have made something that he thought was great to make such a move.

I just hope that what Xiao Wu took out this time is not those weird fun items!

Thinking of Queen Zhang, who was busy playing mahjong in Kunning Palace, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Zhu Youzhen, who rushed into Changchun Palace, glanced at the soon-to-be-completed "Victory" in Zhu Youxiao's hand, couldn't help but upturn the corners of his mouth, and secretly laughed in his heart.

"Big brother."

Zhu Youzhen tried hard to ensure that he didn't laugh directly, and he said casually in a steady tone that he barely controlled: "Big brother, your Victory hotting hasn't been completed yet?"

The one I built has been completed for more than a month.

Big brother, you're much slower this time.

Are you just busy taking care of your little nephew and don't have time to do it?

Do you need me to do it for you? ”

At the end of these words, Zhu Youzhen's face was already smiling like a flower.

Looking at Zhu Youzhen's smug smile, Zhu Youxiao said angrily: "Little Wu, you still have the face to say."

If it weren't for the mahjong you made, your sister-in-law dragged me to play with her for more than ten days.

I've already finished this Victory. ”

Hearing Zhu Youxiao say this, Zhu Youzhen's face smiled even more happily.

They are all their own brothers, how can they not share good things.

Zhu Youzhen played mahjong, which was also very effective for Empress Zhang, who had nothing to do in the palace.

Since Zhu Youzhen took mahjong as a gift and gave a pair to Queen Zhang, Queen Zhang was also addicted.

However, the rules in the palace are much more powerful than those in the palace.

With the status of Empress Zhang, except for those old concubines in the palace, there are really few people in the palace who are worthy of playing mahjong with Empress Zhang.

And fighting with a few old ladies, it will become a pastime for Queen Zhang to accompany the old ladies.

Empress Zhang was reluctant.

As soon as she learned it, Queen Zhang, who was addicted, pulled Zhu Youxiao to accompany her to practice.

Zhu Youxiao's level of playing mahjong is the same as Zhu Youzhen's standard difficult brothers.

Both of them are the same dish.

Losing more and winning less, Zhu Youxiao's interest in mahjong also quickly lost.

In fact, letting Zhu Youxiao do mahjong makes him feel more comfortable than playing mahjong.

After practicing for more than ten days, Empress Zhang, who felt that her level had risen sharply, finally let go of Zhu Youxiao and turned to the three princesses to make up for it.

Only then was Zhu Youxiao able to get out of the sea of suffering.

As soon as he thought of this, Zhu Youzhen couldn't help but laugh.

He has only played mahjong for a few days in a row, and his eldest brother Zhu Youxiao has been playing for more than ten days.

Happiness is really comparable!

Seeing that the eldest brother Zhu Youxiao's face was getting more and more wrong when he laughed, Zhu Youzhen hurriedly forcibly stopped laughing.

Can't laugh anymore.

If the laughing big brother is annoyed and angry, it won't be fun.

Taking a few deep breaths, Zhu Youzhen barely suppressed his smile. He took out a thick stack of drawings from his arms and sent them to Zhu Youxiao.

"Big brother, although you didn't even do a good job of the Victory, I still sent you this new drawing. Take a look. ”

Speaking of the Victory not yet done, Zhu Youzhen couldn't help but laugh on his face again.

He was finally able to show off in front of Zhu Youxiao.

It's not easy, it's not easy.

The drawings that Zhu Youzhen took out this time are another pinnacle of the sailing era: the Great Republic.

In its previous life, it was a flying clipper sailing ship built by the United States in 1853.

The Grand Republic is the well-deserved king of speed in the sailing era.

This big guy with a length of 93 meters, a width of 16.2 meters, and a full load displacement of 3,600 tons, can easily run at a speed of more than 12 knots at sea.

And the Victory, which also has a displacement of 3,600 tons, has a maximum speed of only about 9 knots.

The Grand Republic is a fast cargo ship built for speed.

The Grand Republic's pinnacle record was that it took only 13 days to cross the entire Atlantic, from the United States directly to Europe.

It achieved an average speed of 19 knots at the time, which was unattainable even by most later steam-powered vessels.

This speed record set by the Grand Republic was not broken until the later age of dreadnoughts.

took the drawings and flipped through them casually, Zhu Youxiao snorted in surprise.

With the experience of making the Victory, Zhu Youxiao is no stranger to this kind of Western-style sailing ship.

But as soon as he flipped through it, Zhu Youxiao had already discovered that the sailboat on this drawing was completely different from the Victory.

"Is this for speed?"

Looking at the unusually slender ship shape of the Great Republic, Zhu Youxiao said with a slight hesitation.

"Good eyesight, big brother."

Zhu Youzhen raised his thumb high.

"This Master Mingzong is Master Mingzong! The characteristics of this ship can be seen at a glance.

The ship is really designed to increase sailing speed.

If we can really build it, then we may be able to run from Dengzhou to Ningyuan in one day. ”

"Can you run so fast?"

Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but open the drawings again and study them carefully.

If he wants to say anything else, Zhu Youxiao hasn't personally experienced it, but he has personally inquired about the speed of the ship.

It takes about 4 days for the Zhenyun boat to run Ningyuan, and it takes 2 days if it is the fastest to go smoothly.

This new ship was able to compress the time to 1 day.

That's remarkable.

If there is really such a speed, then Ning Yuan will no longer have to worry about the lack of materials.

Just thinking about it, Zhu Youxiao suddenly caught a glimpse of the hateful smile on Zhu Youzhen's face.

What kind of expression is this?

Is this a joke?

If it weren't for Xiao Wu, you would have done that mahjong, and my victory would have been completed a long time ago, and it would be your turn to laugh at me.

As soon as the drawings were closed, Zhu Youxiao asked with a serious face: "Little Wu, this is the New Year soon, what about the gift you gave to your little nephew?" Don't take it out yet? ”

Zhu Youzhen, who was snickering, was stunned by Zhu Youxiao's question.

What's the situation?

How can the eldest brother make an unprecedented benefit, isn't this drawing precious enough?

Also a gift from a little nephew?

After being stunned for a moment, Zhu Youzhen understood.

It must have been when he snickered and was seen by Zhu Youxiao, so he talked about his little nephew.

Hehe, big brother, you still want to talk about your little nephew.

Hehe, I'm really going to have a gift for that kid too.

"Big brother, how do you know that I have prepared a gift for my little nephew?"

Zhu Youzhen pretended to be surprised and asked back, but the smile on his face could no longer be hidden.

Without waiting for Zhu Youxiao to speak again, Zhu Youzhen shouted loudly: "Wang Chengen, bring that walker to Gu." ”

Wang Chengen answered, and brought in a small car with four wheels from outside the hall.
