He paused for a moment and added: "Although I have not studied carpentry, I make all the carpentry furniture in my house, and my little things are also made of wood, and I think I should be able to do carpentry work." ”

Lin Yi didn't answer him directly, but just asked, "If I give you the drawings and let you make a boat according to the drawings, can you have a way to do it?" ”

Li Yu imagined it in his mind, and said confidently: "Yes, madam, when I used to cross the shore by boat, I had seen the practice of that boat, it is not difficult, I think, I can do it." ”

Lin Yi said: "I'm not talking about wood, it's iron. ”

"With iron?" Li Yu's whole person was stunned, he looked at Lin Yi with wide eyes, and said, "How can a ship be made of iron?" Iron is so heavy that it sinks into the water all at once, and iron is so expensive, if the whole ship is made of iron, I don't know how much it will cost. ”

Lin Yidao: "Ships made of iron are strong, tough, and much safer than wooden ships, but in terms of the current conditions, it may not be mature enough to build iron ships, but you can take this matter to heart, think about the difficulties that need to be faced in building iron ships, and the solutions to the difficulties, and when the time is ripe in the future, these prior preparations can come in handy." ”

"Yes! Madam, I must think hard with my heart in order to build an iron ship for Madame as soon as possible. ”

Li Yu's eyes were shining, in Lin Yi's place, he suddenly found his own value and dream, thinking that in the future, he would have the opportunity to build an unprecedented and indestructible iron ship, and the heat and affection in his heart were as high as flames.

Lin Yi saw the fire of interest rising in Li Yu's eyes, and knew that he was not looking at the wrong person, this Li Yu was indeed a person who liked to create.

Lin Yi thought for a while, and then asked, "Do you usually make things in advance?" ”

Li Yudao: "The ones I make on weekdays are all small things, and I don't usually draw pictures, but I have a clear idea of what those parts are like and how to do them." ”

Lin Yi nodded and asked, "Then do you know how to draw?" ”

Li Yu shook his head and said, "I haven't painted it, so I don't know how to draw this picture." ”

Lin Yi knew that even if Li Yu was talented, he had not undergone professional training, and it was impossible for him to draw those drawings immediately, but anyway, he would not start the manufacture of large ships yet, and he still had a chance to learn those basic skills.

Lin Yidao: "This drawing is different from the painter's drawing, our drawing pays attention to precision, in the process of drawing, the shape and size of each place, not only to be known, but also to show in the drawing." ”

"Oh, I see." Li Yu's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: "Shipbuilding, just like building a house, is a big job, it is impossible to be completed by one person alone, if you can write and mark the dimensions inside, then you can give it to different people to complete different places." ”

"Clever!" Lin Yizan said: "That's it, and we need to take the core part into our own hands, and other irrelevant places can be completely contracted to other people." ”

Li Yu was very happy, he bowed deeply to Lin Yi, and said gratefully: "Thank you Madame, Li Yu will definitely work hard and live up to Madame's high expectations." ”
