Looking at their earthy faces, the fat man smiled: "You all think too much, I'm not a person who goes crazy when you have benefits, but if you want to report, it's still a little difficult." ”

"Everything on the island is under my control, and even if you want to rest, it will only be within the reach of the surveillance personnel and the surveillance system.

Of course, it's not like it's going to be kept from it forever, give me a year in the modern era, and I'll make it all public, there are things you know and things you don't know.

So, you should work with peace of mind! ”

Give the fat man a year, that is, ten years here, if the fat man can't get to compete with all the countries on the earth on an equal footing with them, then what will the fat man do to fight against the alien race that can already run long distances in space in ten years.

Wang Quan hated the practice of Europeans putting timber from shipbuilding on open land and letting it dry naturally.

Natural drying has many disadvantages, it takes a long time, and it usually takes at least two years to cut down a tree and use it to build a ship.

And because it has been put for a long time, some wood is dry on the outside but still wet on the inside, and such wood will become woody after a long time.

If this was in the early Ming Dynasty in the East, this would not be a problem at all, because the Easterners are smart.

They would build a long conservatory and heat it in it to warm up the huge wood so that the moisture inside the wood would escape at the right temperature.

This can speed up the evaporation of water in the wood, and make the wood that has undergone this process stronger and more resistant to insects.

It's just that such a process will consume a lot of manpower, material and financial resources, and the advantage is that the time is fast, and the wood is more durable than ordinary wood.

Normally it takes three years for wood to dry naturally, but it only takes three months for wood to be placed in a greenhouse.

But where is this, and what kind of person is the fat man?

This is South Africa, the most people here are people, as long as you give a bite to eat, the body is good and can resist beating and hardship, there are many poor European people who follow the boat to come here and do not leave, they have heard that they can find work here, and they will not die of hunger here, which is a paradise for many people in Europe where people often starve to death.

So Wang Quan hired a lot of people, but he paid only a small amount, so he did everything.

Now many people go to the prairie to find that kind of black stone to sell in this huge city, and no one thought that this kind of thing that has been seen everywhere in the prairie for generations can be taken to that huge city to exchange for food.

This work was not only done by the big black men, but also by the poor whites who had come from Europe all at once to the savannah to pick up coal.

Therefore, the ship materials that Wang Quan was going to use, especially the keel that was more than 100 meters long, had been warmed and dried before the fat man came from the modern world.

In order to build a relatively advanced dry dock, Wang Quan took his bunch of European shipwrights to soak in the dock all day and night, saying that if Zheng He was not built within half a year, it would not come out.

Half a year, thanks to what he said, it took Zheng He three years to build this ship! I heard that in another one or two hundred years, it will take more than ten years for the Europeans to build a ship much smaller than this, and he actually told the fat man that he planned to build Zheng He in half a year, which is too exaggerated!

However, since he said it, then let him be, the fat man specially said to Lao Gao that he should arrange more labor to the shipyard for Wang Quan to control.

Because of this, the fat man also made Yuan Ping laugh: "The reason why this wooden ship was so slow in ancient times is not that it was difficult to build this ship, but that the tools in ancient times were all manpower axes and chisels, and you go to see the current shipyard;

Is the tide-driven transmission pulling the huge hacksaw to separate the timber comparable to the efficiency of the ancient two people pulling the big saw from dawn to dark? ”

"Look at the planer again, as soon as the transmission belt is hung up, it will rotate quickly, and a board will become smooth after a while, which is comparable to the efficiency of manual planing for a day to be satisfied?"

"For the chisel work, I made them a few drill bits, and if there is anything to chisel, drill there first, and then it will be easy to chisel."

"Actually, it will take them half a year, and this is still the time for these European shipwrights of yours to grind if they are not skilled."

All right! We don't understand the world of professionals, and fat people have to find a profession that they understand.

For example, watch Li Dalun train his troops.

As for Charles and Wang Li, he didn't care, and there was only one task entrusted to these two people, which was to spread the intelligence network all over the world.

As for asking the fat man how dare to use these two spy leaders who are not the same heart as him now, there is only one sentence, that is, the fat man has no one.

If you ask him if he has a second sentence, it is that he doesn't dare to have two hearts.

As long as the space-time wormhole they think is still in their own hands, as long as the game warehouse that they sent them in is still in their own hands, then they don't dare to have two hearts, especially these people from Huaxia.

I went to see Li Dalun's army training, which was very exciting, especially the military stick beating was very exciting.

Because Li Dalun said that the army in the era of cold weapons has only two words, that is, orders and prohibitions and blood bravery.

How can it be forbidden, that is, those who have made mistakes eat military sticks and those who have not made mistakes eat meat.

How can you be bloody and brave, the amount of food lost by the two teams in the competition is halved and the meat that is won is eaten.

Of course, the ordnance aspect is also very important.

In terms of ordnance, Yuan Ping is already researching, and he has made a few guns now, but the bullets are difficult to get, and he still can't get a suitable machine tool to make bullets.

However, since the gun has been made, the one or two hundred guns and bullets that the fat man had already brought in can already be used, but the bullets are not easy to make now, there is no machine tool, and the artificial ones are not enough to consume.

Yuan Ping's main thing now is to make artillery, he wants to get the naval guns on modern ships out, and bombard his mother when he confronts people, but he can't!

First of all, Yuan Ping is just an academician of civilian science and technology, ask him to get munitions, he can get it simply, but if you ask him to get some giant cannons, don't be embarrassed for him, you might as well ask him to study chemical fertilizers!

But even if it is civilian, it is still no problem to build a few cannons, although it is still stupid and black, but it is already a shell with a copper shell that combines the primer and propellant plus the warhead, breech guns.

So now the fat man is wondering if he should go to sea to fight pirates!

What he didn't know was that on a merchant ship on the way to Dingyuan City, Cape of Storm, the Golden City, there was a person who was thinking about him.

No, it should be said that two people are thinking about him.

There was one who was the one who quietly left Dingyuan City, and standing in front of him, looking at the sea and sky in front of the bow of the ship, was a man in silver armor.

If someone else is wearing metal armor on a ship, especially on a ship at sea, then people must laugh at this person for being a fool.

But the man in front of him was wearing this silver armor on the ship, but no one would make fun of him.

Because, he is a knight of light, a knight of light from the Holy Court.
