The Great Qin Empire's industry developed rapidly, and shipbuilding, one of the most important industries in the industrial field, was at the top of it.

Today, the Great Qin Empire has a total of three shipyards, in addition to the Wanghai City Shipyard and the Binhai City Shipyard, there is also the Yingzhou Shipyard in Yingzhou, the three shipyards have a total of fifteen docks, and at least two ships are launched every month to join the sequence of the original Yun Clan's shipyard and the current Great Qin Empire's shipyard.

The 4,500-material Zhenzi-class steamship is not the largest ship that can be built in the shipyard today, and the largest ship that can be built in the shipyard now is the Kanzi-class steamship with as many as 6,000 materials, and even in a dock in the Wanghai City Shipyard, there are even larger ships under construction.

According to Yunyi's orders, the Wanghai City Shipyard has been building larger and stronger ships in order to make the ships resistant to more dangers and travel longer distances.

After the exploration of the Great Qin Empire's shipbuilding, the farther the ship is from the land of Shenzhou, the more dangers the ship will suffer on the sea, the bigger and bigger winds and waves, the more and more terrifying sea monsters, and the unpredictable weather, they are all a huge threat to the fleet, if it were not for the various weapons equipped by the ship, I am afraid that no one would dare to carry out the task of exploring the sea.

Fortunately, Sun Ran is more dangerous in the sea, over the years, the Great Qin Empire has only lost three ships, which is still within the range of bearing, and the ships are all acting in teams, once a certain ship has an accident, it can be rescued by other ships in the same fleet, and there are not too many dead and injured crew members.

Whenever a valuable island is discovered by the exploration fleet, the Great Qin Empire will give out a huge bonus, which is the real reason why the crew does not care about the danger and continues to explore the sea.

There are several directions for the Great Qin Empire's exploration of the sea, some to the south of the land of Shenzhou, and some to the west of the land of Shenzhou, both of which are far away from the land of Shenzhou, but the more they sail in these two directions, the less likely the fleet will be able to find the islands in the sea.

In addition to exploring to the south and west, the exploration fleet also explored to the north and east, but to explore in these two directions is actually to explore the "offshore" waters of the entire land of China.

At present, the exploration fleet has explored the farthest sea of the Northern Alliance (Northern Hundred Kingdoms) in the north of the Shenzhou Land and the sea of the Great Liang Empire in the south of the Shenzhou Land, and has selected islands to establish forward bases in these two sea areas.

In the Great Qin Empire, some captains even conceived a great plan - to circle the land of Shenzhou.

Everyone knows that the land of Shenzhou is a huge and unique area. The land of Shenzhou is surrounded by the sea on all sides, that is to say, if you start from the pier of Wanghai City and sail around the land of Shenzhou to the east, the ship will eventually sail back from the north, that is, circle the land of Shenzhou.

However, the land of Shenzhou is too big, and if the ship wants to complete the great task of circumnavigating the land of Shenzhou, it needs to sail at least 50,000 or 60,000 miles, not to mention the countless dangers on the road, even this distance, it also needs to sail day and night for two months, and the ship cannot hold on to such a long time by relying on its own fuel.

In order to complete the great task of circumnavigating the land of Shenzhou, it is also necessary to establish multiple supply bases in the seas on all sides of the land of Shenzhou.

In the end, the Harbour Master reported this great plan, and Yun Yi didn't think much about it, directly approved the plan, and also decreed that if this task could be completed, everyone would be rewarded.

"Circumnavigating the land of China" has become the goal of all captains, which is also the purpose of Yunyi.

Exploring the sea by ship is a very boring thing, and without perseverance, no one can persevere, so it is better to set a goal and let everyone have a goal to strive for, which is much better than wandering through the sea to find islands.

However, there is another thing that makes Yunyi feel very regretful, in the past ten years, the largest island discovered by the fleet is Yingzhou, and under Yingzhou, the largest island is only one-fifth the size of Yingzhou at most.

On the sea, every newly discovered island can be a huge treasure trove, and the larger the island, the higher the value, which can be reflected in Yingzhou.

The last thing the crew wanted to see was a rocky island, and they wanted to find it a large island with green vegetation, which was of great value, and where medicinal herbs of various vintages could grow.

Whenever this kind of island with great value is discovered by the fleet, the entire fleet will be rewarded, in the Great Qin Empire, many crew members have become rich because of the discovery of the island, but they do not want to stay away from the sea for the time being, obtaining huge wealth from the sea is a reason, and more importantly, they are not willing to stay away from the sea in their lives.

The Great Qin Empire's exploration of the waters around the land of Shenzhou continues, and when exploring a certain distance, it will choose islands to establish supply bases, and from the sea, the Great Qin Empire can easily send people to the territory of Anguo, Chu, Dayue Empire, Tang Empire, Daliang Empire, and Northern Hundred Kingdoms without being discovered.

This is the advantage of the Great Qin Empire, once Yun Yi wants to conquer these countries and directly mobilize a large fleet to transport the army from the sea, those national terrorists will not think that there will be enemies coming from the sea, their defense on this side of the sea is very weak, and the Great Qin Empire can easily occupy a large area of land in other countries.

However, the war will not be carried out for a long time, because the Guannai has suffered from the impact of a long period of war, and in the ten years after the establishment of the Great Qin Empire, Yunyi does not plan to wage war against the outside world, and the Great Qin Empire needs to recuperate, but the Great Qin Empire can do other things by sea, such as transmitting intelligence, transporting special items, transporting intelligence personnel, and so on.

Now the two major intelligence organizations directly under Yunyi's hands, Xunfeng and Tianmu, have already focused on the area outside the Great Qin Empire, although Yunyi has no idea of launching a foreign war in a short time, but it should collect intelligence or collect intelligence, and when the war starts, it will play a huge role.

In the next five years, Yunyi plans to establish two more shipyards, one in Suzhou and the other in Hengzhou, and the fleet size of the Great Qin Empire's shipyard will continue to expand, and Yunyi needs to complete the exploration of the known sea areas as soon as possible, and then explore the unknown sea areas.

Unknown things always make people curious, and Yunyi is no exception, Yunyi wants to know if there are other civilizations on this planet, similar to those natives on Yingzhou, who have not yet been called civilizations.
