Of course, it is impossible for Zhang Zhun to stay in Fujian all the time, waiting for Saiviala's return. With the top brass of the navy squatting here, and a well-developed plan, as long as the main fleet of the Dutch appeared, the Tiger Navy could act according to the plan. Now he has too many things to deal with and has to leave the front line in Fujian for a while.

On the morning of the third day of September, Zhang Zhun appeared on the river near Nanjing City by boat. His boat did not hang a special sign, so no one knew that the governor of the Tiger Army had come to Nanjing. From the inside of the boat, the two banks of the Yangtze River and the north of Nanjing City were quiet and there was nothing abnormal.

The Longjiang Shipyard, located near Nanjing, was about to be put back into use, and Zhang Zhun had to come and see it for himself. This is the third shipyard that the Tiger Army is preparing to re-put into operation, and it is related to the future exhibition of the Tiger Army Navy. As the governor of the Tiger Army, Zhang Zhun of course had to confirm it in person and have an in-depth understanding.

With the development of the international situation, the Tiger Ben Navy will face more opponents. After the Dutch, the Spaniards, the Portuguese, the British...... All have the potential to become opponents of the Tiger Ben Navy. In other words, more and larger warships are needed to bring these countries to their knees under the fire of the Tiger Navy.

The original two shipyards, even if they started construction day and night, could no longer meet the needs of the Huben Army and Navy, and more shipyards must be put into use. This is the basic reason for the construction of the third shipyard. The Dutch can launch more than a thousand ships a year, and it seems that the Tiger Navy has not yet reached such a standard, and must redouble its efforts.

Why did you choose Longjiang Shipyard as your new shipbuilding base? The main reason is that it is blessed with unique conditions. Timber from Jiangnan, as well as craftsmen from Jiangnan, can be gathered in Nanjing. The surging Yangtze River can bring enough wood to the shipyard. Timber from all over the south of the Yangtze River can be transported by water.

If the shipyard needs any other resources, it can also be transported by water, in large quantities. For example, cotton cloth for sails, sisal for ropes, wrought iron for anchors, and so on. All of them can be easily found in the surroundings of Nanjing. It is easy to transport and low cost. At that time, the imperial court chose this place as a shipbuilding base, also considering the advantages in this regard.

Basically, the third shipyard is to encompass most of the resources of the Jiangnan area. In less than 500 miles around Nanjing, all resources except wood can be found quickly. In the past, when the Longjiang Shipyard started, the entire southeast half of the wall had a complete set of supporting processes. Many parts and utensils of the ship are processed elsewhere and then transported to the Longjiang Shipyard for assembly.

Obviously, the establishment of the third shipyard can drive the development of the Jiangnan economy. Such a huge shipyard can not only provide a large number of employment opportunities, but also provide a large amount of consumption power, and can also bring a large number of Xiao workshops. In this way, around the shipyard, an industrial chain is formed.

In particular, the emergence of the third shipyard will greatly stimulate the development of Jiangnan shipbuilding industry. According to Zhang Zhun's experience, next to every military shipyard, there will be a large number of civilian shipyards. The Tiger Ben Army cleaned up the Longjiang Shipyard and put it into use, and many large businesses in Jiangnan must increase investment in civilian shipyards.

If the Tiger Ben Navy wants to dominate the world, it is not enough to have warships, but also a large number of merchant ships. Under normal circumstances, one warship basically needs to correspond to ten merchant ships. These merchant ships were built only by civilian shipyards. It seems that the civilian shipyards in the Wulongwan area of Shandong have provided great help to the Tiger Ben Army.

At present, the transport ships requisitioned by the Huben Navy are all built from the civilian shipyards in Wulong Bay. Seriously speaking, the civilian shipyards in Wulong Bay have a stronger construction capacity than the two shipyards of the Huben Army Navy. A merchant ship with a displacement of 500 tons can be launched in just half a year. It's just that they don't know how to build professional warships.

In fact, before the Ming Dynasty implemented the policy of banning the sea, there were many private shipyards in the Jiangnan area. These private shipyards can even build No. 1 ships with a displacement of more than 1,000 tons, and the shipbuilding technology is quite remarkable. If you add the technology transfer of the Tiger Navy, they can even build merchant ships with a larger displacement.

"My lord, there's the Third Shipyard ahead."

Wang Junyu said in a low voice.

"Hmm."

Zhang Zhun nodded.

He held up the clairvoyant mirror and carefully surveyed his surroundings.

Obviously, what he saw was completely different from what he had seen when he came here six years ago. Six years ago, the surrounding area of Nanjing City was quite dilapidated, looking like a gloomy look, and there were almost no people in sight. But now, what he saw was lush trees, full of life, and more pedestrians.

What Zhang Zhun paid special attention to was that at the northern wharf of Nanjing City, there were constantly merchant ships docking. Many merchant ships are crowded together with each other, and the masts are lined up, and the momentum is magnificent. Sailors from different merchant ships were greeting each other loudly. On the wharf, it is even more lively, and the porters are busy back and forth like ants, sweating profusely loading and unloading goods.

When these merchant ships left, the draft was very deep, and it can be seen that the ships must have been filled with all kinds of goods. If the guess is correct, these merchant ships are all preparing to rush to Japan. The Tiger Benjun took over the Japanese market, as if it had opened a bottomless dong, requiring a large number of cheap and practical goods. Savvy businessmen naturally seized this opportunity for wealth at the first time.

Zhang Zhun took the boat, slowly went upstream, and then turned into a deep river. Inside this river is the site of the original Longjiang Shipyard. On both sides of the river, there are sentinel boats that are responsible for guarding and inspecting the passing merchant ships. After the inspection, Zhang Zhun took the boat and continued to move forward, and soon arrived at the special wharf of the Longjiang Shipyard.

After half a year of cleaning up, the current Longjiang Shipyard has been cleaned up very cleanly, and it is no longer possible to see the dilapidation of the year. Zhang Zhun can also see from the clairvoyant mirror that in many corners of the Longjiang Shipyard, there are still a large number of workers who are busy, working hard for the Longjiang Shipyard to be put into use again.

"Sir."

Yun Pei stood on the dock, waiting for Zhang Zhun's arrival.

Because he has been with Xue Zhidie for a long time, the current Yunpei is quite familiar with the process and process of the shipyard. If Xue Zhidie is a great expert in shipbuilding, she is a Xiao expert in shipbuilding. Therefore, as Xue Zhidie's deputy, she was specially sent to Nanjing to preside over the reconstruction of the Third Shipyard.

In addition to Yunpei, there is also a big expert in the third shipyard. This person is Zhao Baolai, that is, Xue Zhidie's former master. The Zheng family fleet has been disbanded, and Zhao Baolai, who was employed by the Zheng family fleet, was naturally dug up by the Tiger Ben Army. Zhao Baolai is very famous, in fact, he is in his fifties, and his body is quite healthy. Such a talent is naturally what Zhang Zhun has been eyeing for a long time.

As a technician who basically does not care about politics, Zhao Baolai certainly has no resistance to defecting to the Tiger Ben Army. Anyway, his job is to design ships and build ships. It is also his blessing to be valued by Zhang Zhun. Therefore, he came to Longjiang Shipyard very happily and worked together to clean up this place as soon as possible.

According to Zhang Zhun's long-range planning, after the ninth batch of saber ships was launched, the Tiger Ben Navy would no longer produce saber ships. The No. 2 shipyard in Dengzhou and the No. 3 shipyard in Nanjing were both operating at full capacity to produce Longshen ships.

In the future, the combat scope of the Tiger Ben Navy should be ocean-going. The saber ship, with a displacement of only three hundred tons, still has some risks when sailing in the open ocean. Only the Dragon God ship with a displacement of more than 600 tons is relatively safe. It can be said that in the next few years, the main warship of the Tiger Ben Navy will be transformed from a sword ship into a dragon god ship. In terms of overall strength, it has really improved a notch.

As for the No. 1 shipyard in Qingdao, where Xue Zhidie personally sits, it began mass production of King Kong ships. This behemoth, which has a displacement of more than 1,200 tons, will be launched at the end of March next year at the earliest. If, after launching, there is not much technical improvement at present, it will be mass-produced at the second shipyard.

"Teacher Zhao!"

Zhang Zhun smiled and shook hands with Zhao Baolai.

"Lord Governor, Governor...... You, hello ......."

Zhao Baolai is obviously a person who is not good at jiaoliu, and he also stutters a little when he speaks.

A master who can teach a talent like Xue Zhidie, of course, is at the top level, but it is obvious that he is not suitable for such an occasion. He was a bit of an old pedant in later generations, focusing only on his own research and not caring about anything else. So, Zhang Zhun smiled slightly and let Zhao Baolai busy with his own affairs.

"Lord Governor......"

"Lord Governor......"

In the past, several old shipwrights from the Longjiang Shipyard came up to say hello.

"Hello everyone!"

Zhang Zhun said with a smile.

"Hello Lord Governor!"

Everyone responded enthusiastically.

Zhang Zhun pulled a few of them and chatted casually.

Duan Chang and Yin Dafu were really embarrassed when they talked about their fate in the past few years. When it comes to emotion, some people can't help but quietly turn their heads and quietly wipe away the tears from the corners of their eyes with their sleeves.

Before Zhang Zhun came to Nanjing for the first time, they were still poor and had no next meal, and they were almost starving to death. Now, there has been a sea change. As the backbone of the shipyard, the families of these old shipwrights are already quite solid. Each person has at least a few hundred taels of silver per year.

"Sir, please come this way."

It's almost homely, Yun Pei said in a low voice.

Accompanied by everyone, Zhang Zhun inspected every dock at the No. 3 Shipyard.

According to the requirements of the chief designer Xue Zhidie, coupled with Zhao Baolai's suggestion, the original Longjiang Shipyard will be greatly expanded. The new Third Shipyard will have a hundred large dockyards that can build the largest treasure ships. In other words, the ultimate warship with a displacement of 3,000 tons can be built here.

A whole hundred large dockyards, unprecedented in scale. This means that after the third shipyard is put into use, it will be the largest shipyard under the Huben Navy. Here, at least a hundred large warships can be launched at once. With a huge shipyard of this level, as long as the Tiger Army has enough raw materials and enough silver, all kinds of large warships will come out like toys for children.

In order to expand enough docks, many places around the Longjiang Shipyard were requisitioned and demolished. The places where Duan Chang, Yin Dafu and others originally lived have been demolished and excavated into a dock. Fortunately, this is a desolate area around the city of Nanjing, and it is basically uninhabited. The requisition of the third shipyard here can be regarded as turning waste into treasure.

As a result of the excavation of the dock, a large amount of silt was brought out, and this silt was piled up nearby, making a total of seven peaks. Yun Pei named these seven peaks one by one. She also arranged part of the funds to turn these seven man-made peaks into parks. In the near future, it will become a new and beautiful scenery near Nanjing.

The current Third Shipyard, standing on the side and looking at the past, can't see the edge at all. Only by standing on the top of these seven Xiao peaks can you see a rough idea. The huge docks, looking down from the mountain peaks, look like a pond, neat and beautiful, pleasing to the eye.

"Good value for money!"

Zhang Zhun whispered to himself in his heart.

In order to build the third shipyard, Zhang Zhun spent a lot of silver. Almost all of what he saw now was made of white silver. Almost half of the military money extorted from the Japanese imperial family was invested here. Now, the large amount of silver that has been cast in the white flowers has finally had an effect, and of course he is happy.

These large dockyards will soon be put into use. It was these wide dockyards that gave the Tiger Navy the qualifications to confront the Dutch. A shipyard with a hundred large dockyards is probably not to be seen even in the Netherlands!

"When will it be ready for use?"

Zhang Zhun asked a little urgently.

"Three days later."

Yun Pei replied in the affirmative.

"Good!"

Zhang Zhun nodded with satisfaction.

The Third Shipyard is ready to start construction of 100 Dragon God ships. The construction period of the Dragon God Ship is about nine months. In other words, by June next year, the Third Shipyard will have a full 100 Dragon God ships launched. Together with the production capacity of the second shipyard, one hundred and fifty, or even two hundred, dragon god ships can be launched every year. Such shipbuilding should have hope of catching up with the Dutch.

"!"

"It's worth it!"

"Dead Dutchman!"

Zhang Zhun nodded with satisfaction in his heart again.
