Lauren took the expedition ship in his hand and continued: "This ship is the result of His Majesty the Emperor's countless expenditures, and it is sufficient to meet the requirements of this project. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

When Yi Xiaoge saw this ship, he suddenly remembered Luo Meng, wasn't Luo Meng looking forward to one day being able to find a new world along his father's tracks?

The Heart of the World has begun to plan to open up a route to Ancient China, and the Heart of the World represents the process of system power, does this herald the opening of a new world? Yi Xiaoge had too many thoughts in his mind at the moment, and it seemed that it was necessary for him to hurry up and solve the worries of Wudao and Tianya Island, and then take the first step into the new world to occupy more advantages.

Yi Xiaoge took everyone back to No Island, and Yi Xiaoge prepared a separate R&D department for Lauren Saigon, and at the same time asked the shipyard to cooperate with the old Lauren's R&D.

In the newly completed ship R&D department, Yi Xiaoge took the manufacturing map of the Courage-class expedition ship and said to Lauren: "Mr. Lauren, did you say that this ship has only been successfully developed at present, and there is no real real ship?" ”

"Well, that's right, its reliability still needs to be tested in practice, you can get on the horse now, build it, and then launch the experiment!"

Yi Xiaoge nodded, although it is a game, everything is highly realistic, and the new ship must pass the launching experiment. Even the previous Heart of Hope had done a similar sea trial.

There are two Dean Hall in shipbuilding, Yi Xiaoge doesn't have to worry about it at all, but the cost of shipbuilding really scared him, if you use ordinary shipbuilding wood, the cost of the whole ship is more than 300,000 gold coins! If you use gold teak, then the manufacturing cost will directly exceed 500,000 gold coins.

"Hehe, fortunately, the golden teak wood is in my hands, and I can make it in large quantities without cost."

Dean said beside him: "Mr. Yi, the shipwright is ready, what materials are used to build the new ship?" ”

"Golden teak! After a while, the people from the forest farm will send a large amount of golden teak wood. ”

The protective performance of golden silk teak is twice that of ordinary wood, and using it to make a courage level is very guaranteed for Yi Xiaoge's voyage plan.

Knowing that Yi Xiaoge had obtained a new ship suitable for ocean voyages, the most excited was Romon who personally watched Dean and Hall arrange for the boatmen to prepare the materials, and then watched the courage class appear in front of him.

When the courage class came out, everyone present was attracted by the new sea boat. The Courage class is 85 meters long, and the whole body is made of gold-wire teak wood that is resistant to corrosion, deformation, and dry cracking, and shows silk gold threads on the wood grain. There are a total of six floors of cabins, with a height of 14 meters from the first class to the bottom of the ship, and a height of 5 meters at the stern, a total of two floors.

The sails are made of twelve sets of double-row crosssails with right-angled sails at the front and rear, and are designed for a full crew of 350 sailors, including 120 sailors. The loading capacity is still 1,000 groups, which makes Yi Xiaoge complain, can't the maximum capacity of all ships in the future not exceed 1,000 groups?

The hull is wide in the middle and tightened up and down, a bit like a fat man's body. This kind of hull has a very good cushioning effect against the waves, and the waves will divert up and down along the rounded hull, which greatly weakens the impact of the waves on the hull and improves the stability of the boat.

"What a beautiful sailboat!" "It's much, much better than the boat my father was on," he exclaimed. ”

Yi Xiaoge looked along the hull of the Courage-class expedition ship and said to Dean behind him, "Dean, how is the speed of this ship?" ”

"Well, the cruising speed can reach seventeen to nineteen knots in downwind conditions, and of course, after we modify the sails, the sailing speed may exceed twenty knots!"

Yi Xiaoge thought for a moment and expressed great satisfaction with the speed of the Courage sailboat, which was two or three knots faster than the maximum speed of Hope.

Coming out of the shipyard, Yi Xiaoge said to Luo Meng: "Next, I will start to prepare for the plan of the voyage, and you must also be fully prepared." ”

"Don't worry, Mr. Yi, I'm looking forward to this day all the time, I'm ready!"

In fact, Yi Xiaoge only had a preliminary idea, there was still a period of time before it could really be carried out, without the defense of the island, Tianya Island and several people in the Chamber of Commerce still needed to ensure safety.

Yi Xiaoge took the time to go to Aberlia Harbor, where the fleet of five hundred Blood Eagle Pirate Regiments was already equipped with twenty Brilliant-class battleships, and the size of the force was enough to deal with any individual Chamber of Commerce attack.

He sent a letter to Mitheus, telling him to pay attention to the defense of the port of Aberlia, and to send a patrol fleet to patrol the port of Aberlia at regular intervals.

Tianya Island has been building fortifications recently, including a lot of fish, and their islands have also built dozens of turrets along the coast with the support of Yi Xiaoge, and it is no longer a problem to deal with ordinary pirates.

After inspecting the production and defense of the three islands, Yi Xiaoge asked the professional islanders of the Seiko Workshop to produce leather armor and armor, and Yi Xiaoge planned to use the millions of islanders in the Cape of the Sea to strengthen the defense of Tianya Island, and there was no island.

Yi Xiaoge has thought about it, although sea power is important, the defense force on the island is also the top priority. The crowd tactic was still the mainstream tactic in this era, and he planned to refresh 200,000 strong islanders to form two strong coastal defense forces.

These two troops, each with 100,000 men, were stationed on Tianya Island and Wudao Island, and 10,000 men from each unit were drawn to form a rifled gun unit. In addition, the Dolphin Commando will also be expanded to a scale of 2,000 people, Yi Xiaoge has summoned countless dolphins for the Dolphin Commando to train, this is a strange soldier, and it can play a very big role at critical moments.

These ideas need to be put into practice, in addition to gold coins, it takes a lot of time, Yi Xiaoge is most worried about not having enough money now, in order to buy the wordless signboard pavilion before, he also borrowed three million gold coins from Hua Qianye, and now he hasn't paid back a penny.

"Money, money, as expected, there is an old saying, less money is useful for less money, and more money is useful for more money. In the past, when the development was not so fast, dozens or hundreds of gold coins were already a huge amount of money, but now it is even a dime a dime. ”

Yi Xiaoge sat alone in the gazebo and muttered to herself, and Qin Feiyan walked over with a plate of fruit and juice.

"Second brother, what are you worried about?"

"Money! Recently, I have a lot of ideas that I want to put into action, but I have a penny of money in my hand, and there is no superfluity at all. ”

Qin Feiyan nodded and said, "Yes, I have been in charge of logistics management recently, and I did find that except for the fat flowing oil of the scientific research department, there is a shortage of funds in other places." I knew that His Majesty the Emperor had returned the property to me, so I wouldn't have sent it out. ”

Yi Xiaoge listened to Qin Feiyan's words and asked, "How much is that property?" ”

Qin Fei raised his head and thought for a while, and said uncertainly: "Hmm...... It's not much, about 10 million gold coins. ”

Burst!

"A thousand...... Ten thousand! ”

All the lemon juice in Yi Xiaoge's mouth squirted out, and he thought that a tea seller would reach the sky with hundreds of thousands of gold coins, but he didn't care at the time.

"It seems that there are more than a dozen port shop plots...... I sold them all, exchanged more than 30,000,000 gold coins, and gave them to the monastery to help the poor people. ”

Burst!

Yi Xiaoge spurted out a mouthful of old blood......

"Rub! Is it so profitable to sell tea? I don't accept that I want to sell tea!" (To be continued.) )
