203 Shipbuilding and Preparation

Lan Xi called this, Ji Jianshen and the 'female' starter

The 'girl' hesitated for a moment and said, "Knock on the queen!" As he spoke, he knelt down.

"No need!" Xuanji opened her mouth to stop.

The 'girl' paused, secretly glanced at Ji Jianshen, saw him smile and nodded, and then straightened up, although she didn't say a word, but it made people look like there was a sense of grievance that I saw pity.

Lan Xi Lanqing secretly screamed that it was a pity, such a wild 'woman' who dared to fight the emperor's idea in broad daylight should kill her majesty! Xuanji, this queen is too soft-hearted!

In fact, Xuanji is not soft-hearted, but she is really not used to accepting gifts from others for no reason, and there is no need to rely on her identity to humiliate people if she wants to win momentum.

The smile on the corner of Ji Jianshen's lips did not change at all, but he didn't greet him directly as usual, and called "Xuanji" affectionately, just looking at the two 'women' secretly surging ...... In fact, there are four, although Lan Qing and Lan Xi are expressionless, they are obviously rejecting the 'girl' around them.

People who have had more contact with Xuanji will all turn their hearts towards her.

"Yinglan Xuanji recognizes it, so there is no need to be polite." Ji Jian said with a smile.

"I recognize?" Xuanji looked suspicious and confused, and then looked at the "Urouran", when did it happen.

This time it was Ji Jianshen's turn to look helpless, and "Urouran" looked embarrassed.

"Uran is the 'daughter' of her aunt's land. Haven't you ever seen the Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet the year before last? Ji Jianshen had no choice but to say directly.

"Oh......" Xuanji finally remembered. It turned out to be the "cousin" who sang beautifully.

Can't blame her for not being impressed. The first big demon king has a room of wives and concubines. Beautiful 'women' are like clouds. Where did she remember so much? And. I don't want to remember!

The aunt of the Zhao family and Xuanji used to 'befriend' evil. She didn't have a good impression of this Miss Ouran either. The scene immediately cooled down.

Ji Jianshen didn't have any thoughts about Urouran. I just secretly hope that Xuanji will try the taste of jealousy. So don't talk much.

Xuanji looked down and saw that he was still holding an empty fruit bowl in his hand. Only then did he remember the matter: "The palace remembered that there were some important things to discuss with the emperor. I don't know ...... emperor at this moment," he said, looking at the cherry orchid standing next to him with a weak attitude.

"The emperor and the queen have important matters, and Urryan will retire first!" Speak softly so that you don't feel pity.

It's a pity that the two protagonists of the dialogue don't have any pity for her, Ji Jianshen looked at Xuanji's businesslike appearance and knew that she was already a little angry. Although the little turtle is rarely angry, it is not easy to coax when it is really angry, so he waved his hand to make Urryan retreat.

Uran bowed and saluted, turned to leave, and just turned her face, the grievance and weakness in her eyes had been replaced by resentment and jealousy.

Xuanji instructed Lan Qing and Lan Xi to go back to rest first, and she returned to the royal room with Ji Jianshen.

"I've heard that the sailors have applied for shipbuilding money again, and it's quite a lot." Xuanji didn't mention anything about what happened just now, and went straight to the point when she opened her mouth. She's always been more down-to-earth. Knowing that Ji Jianshen can't have anything to do with Cousin Urouran, then go back and settle the account that he deliberately wanted to 'provoke' her, and now get the business done first. Wait until evening...... Hum!

With her attitude, Ji Jianshen's prepared provocative 'tricks' couldn't be used, so he had to nod and say: "Yes, considering that the two sides are facing each other, the ships are seriously damaged, and there are many reefs in some waters, and it is easy for one to hit the reef and sink if one is not careful, the Longjiang defense line is very important for the 'engagement' between Ji Yue and the two countries, so we must make more preparations." If this line of defense is easily breached, the risks will be much greater. ”

"Are there still shipbuilders or knowledgeable stewards in the capital? I have an idea that if it happens, the cost of the ship will be a little higher, but even if it collides with the enemy and is damaged or hits the reef on the river, it will not be easy to sink, and it can even continue to fight, and after the war, sail back to the shore and repair it and use it again, which should save a lot of money. ”

Ji Jianshen's eyes lit up, and he stepped forward to hug Xuanji and smiled: "I know." My Xuanji knows everything, and she is a good baby from God. ”

"'Meat' hemp!" Xuanji pushed him away, made a grimace and said, "Go and call someone, I don't know if it will work out yet!" ”

Beijing is close to the Lanjiang River, water transport is one of the important ways of 'transportation', there are many ships coming and going every day, including many luxury ships of high-ranking officials and wealthy families, as well as merchant ships and passenger ships that transport goods and passengers. There are large workshops near the wharf on the Lanjiang River, specializing in repairing and manufacturing ships for people, and Shen's workshop is the largest among them.

An order was given in the palace. The people concerned waited for a moment and rushed to the palace to wait for their lives. Coming to the place are Mr. Mi, the chief steward of the Shen shipbuilding workshop, and Master Tu, the oldest craftsman under him. There is also Ding Jiang, a sailor who has just arrived in the holy land of Beijing

Xuanji had already roughly told Ji Jianshen his thoughts before they came, and at this moment he obediently sat behind the screen to explain. Hung Wang put the fruit bowl into the water basin for demonstration.

"Hongu's idea is very simple, to make the bottom of the cabin like a fruit bowl that you can see, divided into compartments that can be isolated from each other, and when the bottom of the ship hits the reef or is destroyed by other impacts, as long as the damaged compartment is sealed, the hull will not sink."

After Xuanji finished speaking, Hong Wang took the water cup and filled the side of the fruit bowl with water, and the wooden fruit plate was still floating steadily on the water.

The three of them were amazed and then ecstatic.

Mr. Mi thought that in the future, it would be easier for merchant ships to sail to the sea, and the separate compartments would be used to store the goods of different merchants, which would be better managed, and if there was a loss, it would not harm the whole ship, so that the shipping business would definitely be a big deal.

Master Tu discovered the world of shipbuilding, the Tu family has been shipbuilding craftsmen for generations, but he never thought of such a production method, and he was 'excited' and ashamed, holding the fruit plate in the water basin, his hands trembling.

And General Ding thought that in the future, the sailors would have such an easily unsinkable warship, and the battle on the Longjiang River would be a little more certain!

Everyone smiled and praised in unison. Xuanji's method is simple, but it is something that no one has ever thought of, in fact, it is a watertight compartment, which was designed in the Tang Dynasty of China and was very popular once it was promoted.

"In addition to preventing sinking, this lattice design makes the entire hull more stable and less susceptible to damage." Xuanji thought about it and added. That's all she knows, and the rest of the details will depend on the implementation of the craftsman.

General Ding said: "The queen mother is really a genius in the sky, with such a warship, the ship's damage to the sailor can be reduced by at least half, and I don't know how many soldiers have been rescued." ”

Xuanji was made her scalp numb by the phrase "Tianzhong Wizard", but fortunately, General Ding did not continue to say more 'meaty' words.

She also happened to hear Wen Juncong say that the ship was damaged and sunk a lot, and then she saw the fruit plate again, and remembered that she had been to the cabin of the Shen family's big ship, and there didn't seem to be such a watertight compartment in it, so she ran back to ask Ji Jianshen for verification. I didn't expect that there was really no such thing in this era.

General Dante talked about the safety of the soldiers, but she was concerned: "In the event of a war, if the ship is seriously damaged and is about to sink, the ship can be equipped with a sufficient number of escape equipment. ”

One sentence stunned several people at the scene.

"Isn't it?" Xuanji was shocked, isn't escape equipment such as lifeboats and life jackets a must-have thing on board? Although there are no inflatable boat life jackets here, there should be other alternatives. Preparation stage, but Yue Yi can't wait, hehe.

The Great Demon King's backyard is also on fire, pathetic.

Tomorrow, everyone has a ticket in hand, remember to 'hand' it to me

Ah, a mouthful of dear, something is late today, this is the 12th.
