Summer in Gangnam is hot, and the atmosphere in the shipyard is even hotter. Two months passed quickly, during this period, the craftsmen in the factory accepted the temporary training course set up by Chen Fei, mainly to teach them some simple physics and mathematics knowledge that would be used in shipbuilding, and these knowledge was still checked out of the system by Chen Fei shamelessly, otherwise with his level, I am afraid that he can only mislead others.

These craftsmen also gave Chen Fei a lot of face, because they all had a certain foundation in shipbuilding, and they were very clear about the structure of simple ships, and it was not difficult for Chen Fei to teach, so they learned quickly. Combined with the drawings distributed to them, the perceptive quickly figured out the general construction of the ship.

Two months of study and preparation really allowed them to start building the smallest ship types.

In addition to the three types of main warships mentioned by Chen Fei at the beginning, the fleet is also equipped with many small ships, such as waterboats specially used to transport fresh water, horse ships used for rapid water warfare and transportation, grain ships mainly used to transport food and logistical supplies needed by the fleet, warships that serve as escorts, and so on.

The small size of these ships made it easy for craftsmen to familiarize themselves with the operations of shipbuilding. The shipyard is in full swing, and everyone is working hard to devote their limited lives to unlimited causes.

While the craftsmen began to work, Chen Fei was finally able to find time to visit the address of the new shipyard, in the southeast of Yangzhou City, there is a small island in the middle of the Yangtze River, surrounded by river water on all sides, and connected to the canal, no matter how you look at it, it is a very ideal shipyard address.

It's just that because this island is surrounded by rivers on all sides, the current is very fast, and it is also troublesome to transport materials to the island, so it ...... Yang Tingshi is not optimistic about this place.

Chen Feilai took a look around the field, but he was also disappointed in this place, the water flow was too fast, and it was not an ideal shipbuilding address. Instead, he walked ten miles down the Yangtze River and found a very gentle bank with a long shoreline, which was used to build a shipyard....... Chen Fei estimated that this area was enough to build a shipyard and provide a harbor for the fleet to provide shelter, which was a very ideal place.

Although the place he liked at first was a little disappointing, God still gave him a surprise. "Lord Yang, what do you think of this?"

Yang Tingshi looked at it and also felt that it was feasible here. The two hit it off and decided to expropriate the land as a shipyard. As for the imperial approval for the construction of a new shipyard...... As early as two months ago, Chen Fei wrote to Li Zhi. The letter had just been delivered two days ago, and Li Zhi responded very domineeringly with a word - approval! And let Chen Fei be fully responsible for this matter.

In other words, the location and scale of the new shipyard are all set by Chen Fei himself, and if he asks for money, he can mention it to the imperial court, anyway, the imperial court is not bad for money!

Li Zhi is indeed a nouveau riche, the imperial court has been recuperating for several years, and has indeed accumulated strong capital, but ....... Building a fleet is indeed a very money-burning thing, and I am afraid that it will not be long before Li Zhi will be squeezed.

I think that at the beginning, Zhu Di went to the West several times, and almost all the treasury was pasted into it, and almost all the abundant capital accumulated in the early Ming Dynasty was accompanied by Zhu Di's father and son.

However, Chen Fei's purpose in building this fleet was not to send money to others, nor was it to find someone. Instead, we want to use the book of the saints to spread the barbarian natives! And it is complemented by military conquest!

The so-called rule is just a book in one hand and a sword in the other! We can't be soft on the enemy, but for the sake of long-term stability, the necessary probation is also needed, and blind violent repression will never be able to achieve long-term rule, and those who are suppressed will desperately resist.

The best thing is to suppress some people, and then support some forces to let them eat each other, and Datang only needs to reconcile in the middle and get enough benefits....... Well, the idea is really beautiful

Chen Fei smiled with satisfaction.........

The new shipyard soon began to be manufactured, and during this time, Chen Fei once again recruited craftsmen, but this time he recruited craftsmen on a somewhat strange standard - people who had taken math courses in the library and had a foundation of craftsmen!

Yes, that's right, Chen Fei began to recruit craftsmen who had studied mathematics. Don't look at the fact that mathematics is a bit flashy after more than 1,400 years, and countless candidates have cried and cried for their mothers, but I have to admit that mathematics is indeed the foundation of all science.

From grocery shopping and workmanship, to simulating the operation of everything in the universe, mathematics is inseparable. Shipbuilding too!

Chen Fei found that the mathematical foundation of these craftsmen who are working now is a little worse, and it is better to say that smaller boats are better, but it will be difficult to build larger ships. Although I have taught them some math courses, I ...... He still needs a group of people with a foundation in mathematics to participate in this project, and by the way, this opportunity to develop courses such as mathematics and physics.

The reason why China has been widened by Western countries in modern times is that it has been compared with others in mathematics, physics and chemistry. Although there are mathematics courses in his library, there are not many people who learn them, and after learning them, he can only be a bookkeeper, and he does not get much attention, so he feels the need to promote mathematics, physics and chemistry.

It is no exaggeration to say that how many years China can stand at the top of the world in the future depends on the extent to which the mathematics, physics and chemistry of the Chinese people have developed.

If you are complacent. I'm sorry, but Western countries still knock on our door with advanced technology. This is the law of history.

Fortunately, Chen Fei really recruited three people who had a mathematical foundation and were working as craftsmen. And these people did not give up after the class to continue studying, and when they had time, they went back to the library to look at the relevant books.

In their words, this knowledge is very applicable, and it is very interesting to use for a long time when working, so they will continue to learn it.

Chen Fei immediately brought the three to the shipyard, let them learn the craft of shipbuilding from the master, and privately improved their treatment.

The trio were inspired and quickly threw themselves into the shipyard's manufacturing.

At the beginning, Chen Fei ran to the shipyard every day to check the progress and cheer up the craftsmen. Gradually, he went to the shipyard less often. Because he found that the enthusiasm of the craftsmen has always been very high, and the skills are also very good, there is no need to stare at it every day.

So he gradually became a shopkeeper, teaching children in the inn, or taking the children out to play or something.

One day, Chen Fei was taking four little children to pile up bony nomi cards in the yard, and it took most of the day, during which he failed four or five times, and finally put the last piece of wood in the admiring and envious eyes of the four little children, and then gently pushed the .......

"Bang!" The door of the post house courtyard was suddenly pushed open, and a strong wind was generated, giving Chen Fei the multi-bone Nomi card in front of him....... Blown down!

Chen Fei's face is like ashes!

He quickly jumped up from the ground, grabbed Sun Deyi's collar and said viciously: "If you have something to say, say it quickly!" If there's nothing important, you won't be able to smoke it! ”

"Huh?" Sun Deyi still didn't understand what was going on, and said inexplicably: "My lord, the first ship has been built, you can go and take a look." ”
