"Why is the middle of the keel divided and closed in this picture? Does this do any good? ”

Gan Ning was born as a water thief, and even if he didn't know how to build ships, he was very familiar with ships, and he was puzzled after reading the drawings.

Yuan Xi laughed and said: "Xingba, this is a good thing, I named it a watertight cabin, the function is to prevent the ship from leaking, delay the speed of sinking, and be able to make temporary repairs." ”

Later generations of watertight cabins are well known, but no one knows when this technology originated, and it is almost impossible in the Han Dynasty, after all, this technology is owned by Fuchuan.

The so-called Fu ship is the kind of large sea ship built in Fujian, and Fujian is still a wild place at this time, and Sun Quan has just entered Fujian, how can this mature technology be formed so quickly.

Gan Ning was surprised when he heard this, at first he felt that it was impossible, but after thinking about it, he really felt that it worked, and slapped his thigh and shouted: "The lord is really a god!" Such technology can also be thought of. ”

Yuan Xi looked at the joy on his lips, but there was still some suspicion in his eyes, and he laughed and scolded: "Get out!" If you don't learn, learn the kung fu of slapping the horse, if you have this kung fu, it is better to supervise the construction of a small boat and come out to experiment to see if it is true or false. ”

"That's right! How did I forget that. ”

Gan Ning slapped his head, turned around and ran out, without waiting for Yuan Xi to call him, he turned back and grabbed the drawings and ran again, regardless of Yuan Xi's scolding behind him.

There is only one reason why Yuan Xi wanted to come to Liaodong Shipbuilding so far away, instead of Denglai in Qingzhou, that is, Liaodong has high mountains and dense forests, and there are many big trees.

In this era, only wood could be used for shipbuilding, and there was oak wood in Liaodong, which was similar to oak.

Oak was used to build sailing ships in Europe, which was stronger than the pine of Chinese warships, which was due to the texture of the wood itself, regardless of technology.

The best wood for Chinese shipbuilding is teak, but the amount of teak is scarce, and it can only be used to make keels, a small amount will be used on decks, and the rest are made of pine or fir.

Of course, there are other woods, but they are not as good as pine and fir in terms of durability.

There is also furniture on the agenda, he has been in this world for several years, he is busy surviving first, he is afraid to do many things, and now he can plan for the quality of life.

Taking the bed as an example, there were beds in the Shang Dynasty, but until the Han Dynasty, the bed was not only used for sleeping, but also for grooming and eating.

The so-called Hu bed is actually the same, but it is a little higher, the bed before the Han Dynasty, the leg height is less than 20 cm, and the height of the Hu bed is about the same as that of later generations, but it is all open.

Yuan Xi doesn't like beds in the 21st century, and has a soft spot for beds in the Ming and Qing dynasties, especially the one, also known as the eight-step bed.

The main reason is that this kind of bed is very private, like a small room, you can't see it outside when you close the door, and you can hang mosquito nets, there is no smokeless mosquito repellent in this era, and it is annoying to death in summer.

Yuan Xi, who used his brains, was almost tired of drawing drawings these days, and Gan Ning became the leader of craftsmen, soaking in the shipyard all day long, ignoring him.

Half a month later, the experimental boat was finally built, and he rushed to pull Yuan Xi to accept it.

"My lord, this technology should be protected as a top secret, and there is another point, send people to Jingzhou and Jiangdong to dig people, and the craftsmen who build ships are still the best technology over there."

The experiment did not disappoint, and understanding the importance of this technique, Gan Ning immediately suggested and pointed out the shortcomings of the craftsmen.

Yuan Xi knew this, and also sent people to the south, but the strength was obviously not satisfactory, which made Gan Ning anxious.

"Xingba, what about those people who were originally with you, send them."

Gan Ning didn't come alone when he went north, the eight hundred soldiers were all from Shudi, Jingzhou and Jiangdong, and they were originally water thieves in the Yangtze River, and some of them were servants of the Gan family.

Gan Ning was born in Ba County, and originally wanted to be loyal to Liu Zhang, but Liu Zhang's father and son reused Dongzhou soldiers for two generations, wanting to balance the power of outsiders and locals, causing dissatisfaction among local wealthy families.

As one of the local wealthy families, Gan Ning naturally did not want to be loyal to him, first rebelled, and was defeated by Zhao Wei before he turned to Jingzhou.

In fact, to put it bluntly, the demise of the Eastern Han Dynasty is not the incompetence of the emperor, nor the struggle for power between relatives and eunuchs, these are only superficial phenomena.

The entire Eastern Han Dynasty has been like this for 200 years, how can it be that the country will die in the Huan Ling era.

The most fundamental reason is that after the local tyrants became stronger and stronger in the later period, the imperial court was no longer able to restrain them, and they caused chaos in the world in order to compete for more right to speak.

And the three kingdoms of the world, each of them stood out in the melee of the princes with the support of the wealthy families in the place.

The most typical is Liu Bei, who has nothing and finally occupies Shudi, it is with the strong support of the wealthy families of Shu, Zhang Song is not only Zhang Song alone, behind him is the Haoqiang of Shu.

Sun Quan has been nesting in Jiangdong all his life, not because he doesn't want to go on the Northern Expedition, but because Jiangdong is unwilling, and Sun Ce's death is very revealing.

Just said that he was going north to attack Xudu, but he was assassinated within a few days, and the strange thing is that as the supreme leader of Jiangdong, there would be such a big hole in the guards around him.

This is actually the same as the West in later generations, capital has kidnapped the government, and the president is actually working for capital.

When an interest group is too large, the court cannot control them, and if you dare to suppress them, they will dare to overthrow you.

A few days later, Zhen Yao received an order, and four hundred fresh faces joined the Zhen family's caravan, divided into several caravans, and went south one after another.

These people spoke with a southerner accent, and soon disappeared from place to place after arriving at the land, contacting the craftsmen of the county towns and promising heavy profits.

Yuan Xi is not only a shipbuilder, he wants all craftsmen with a skill, and he wants to take advantage of Jiangdong to join forces with Jingzhou to fight Cao again, and he has no time to pay attention to how much he can collect.

In the Mid-Autumn Festival in August, Yuan Xi returned to Jicheng to accompany his mother, wife and children for the holiday, and the whole family gathered around to admire the moon that night, and Cai Yan was also pulled by Zhen Mi.

Yuan Xi realized that Cai Yan's marriage could not be delayed any longer, and last month Zhang Xiu and Gao Ran broke through the tent of the Southern Xiongnu king, and King Zuo Xian was clever and surrendered immediately.

and abducted his son Adi, saying that Cai Yan was born, missing his mother, Zhang Xiu and Gao Ran didn't dare to call the shots, so they hurriedly reported to Gao Ganna and were sent to Jicheng.

Because Cai Yan returned five years earlier than in history, he only gave birth to a son in King Zuoxian, and now he is also raised in Yuan Xi's family.

But Cai Yan is already thirty-five years old, and he really can't get married if he doesn't marry.

"That's right! How did I forget that Liu Ziqi's wife died for more than two years. ”

Zhen Mi looked at her husband puzzled, what was she doing in a good surprise.
