Chapter 104: A Wharf Bigger Than Ying Tianfu!

Wang Dahai followed Li Jin back to Shanghu County with doubts, and now he just wanted to know what good things Li Jin had.

This time back to Shanghu County, Li Jin did not take the land route, but took Wang Dahai from the waterway to the port of Shanghu County.

Although the current port scale of Shanghu County is very small, and many of them are still under construction, but from the perspective of the construction manpower and the area laid, this port project is very huge.

Even the Jiangpu Wharf in Yingtian is two to three times larger, and according to Wang Dahai's estimates, after the completion of this place, I am afraid that it will only hold at least 200,000 people.

This is still a conservative estimate, mainly because Wang Dahai has not seen the construction drawings, otherwise he would definitely be able to guess in more detail.

Wang Dahai followed Li Jin with a look around, since he came to Shanghu County, Wang Dahai always had the illusion that there seemed to be something different here.

After thinking about it carefully, Wang Dahai felt that this place was full of vitality and was being built everywhere.

Happy smiles can often be seen on the faces of the people, and even though these people seem tired, the smiles still bloom from the bottom of their hearts.

Seeing that Wang Dahai was secretly speechless, at the same time, he also felt a spontaneous admiration for Li Jin, the young county magistrate.

can make the people here live a good life, Li Jin's ability, naturally needless to say.

Li Jin didn't care about this, he took Wang Dahai along the road built by the port, and walked not far before he came to another port.

It's better to say it's a port than a wharf.

It's just that the dock here, isolated from the outside world, seems to be independent and has a special purpose.

When Wang Dahai walked into this mysterious dock, he was stunned by the contents inside.

I don't know when, the outline of the shipyard has been erected here, but unlike the Longjiang shipyard, there are only 5 sinks here.

It is far less than the scale of Longjiang Shipyard, but looking at the crowds of people coming and going, constantly participating in the construction of the shipyard, Wang Dahai still can't help but burst into tears.

"It's called the Treasure Shipyard, and it's where you'll work in the future."

Li Jin walked in front of Wang Dahai and began to introduce the environment to Wang Dahai.

The reason why he wanted to buy Longjiang Shipyard was nothing more than to put a legal skin on his shipyard.

The so-called backdoor listing uses this trick.

However, the Longjiang Shipyard is so dilapidated, which Li Jin did not expect.

He originally wanted to get some equipment and talents from Longjiang Shipyard, but in the end he brought them back to Wang Dahai.

Fortunately, Wang Dahai did not disappoint Li Jintai, he now has shipbuilders under him, but he is not as experienced as Wang Dahai.

After those people saw Li Jin's drawings, they could only shake their heads and sigh, only Wang Dahai had the confidence to make it, this is the gap.

Li Jin didn't want to rely on anyone to build ships, he wanted to build ships independently, so that he could completely control the ships going to sea and go to sea in his own hands.

This is what he had in mind from the beginning, even if it costs a million taels of silver.

Zhu Yuanzhang thought that he had made it, but it was Li Jin who really made it, because he would completely control the sea power of the Ming Dynasty.

With this shipyard, all the maritime merchants will have to look at his face in the future, otherwise these people's ships will not be able to be repaired, let alone go to sea.

And Wang Dahai is the chief engineer that Li Jin has a fancy for, and he will take the shipbuilders of this shipyard to continuously develop new ships for Li Jin to cross the seas.

"Come and see here."

Li Jin led Wang Dahai to a very small sink.

To say that he is small, not that he is really small, but compared to other sinks, this sink is like a mini, shrinking nearly ten times.

"What does this mean, sir?"

Wang Dahai didn't understand what Li Jin meant at all, he felt that this kind of sink was child's play at all, and the boat built for children felt that it was not enough.

"This sink is too small, and it's a waste to open it here."

Li Jin didn't speak, just picked up a model of a ship from the counter next to the sink and gently placed it on the water.

The amazing scene happened, the model actually floated up in the sink, and it was very stable.

"Master Wang, do you understand?"

Li asked in and out, he felt that this old man was so powerful, he should be able to understand his thoughts.

Wang Dahai suddenly realized:

"What Master Li means is that this kind of toys are used for children to make money, and they will buy toys to make money in the future."

Li Jin rolled his eyes, I am short of those taels of silver?

"I'm telling you, in the future, shipbuilding doesn't have to be built so big all at once, it can be scaled up and down."

"Just like this model, it can only be manufactured if the experiment is successful."

As he spoke, Li Jin took out the drawing from his arms again and said:

"You can apply this drawing to the model ship, and if it's really stable, it's being built to scale."

"The boat is more stable and less prone to capsizing."

"On top of that, the boat uses very little material, is easy to make, and can be improved very quickly."

"Master Wang, you say, is this a good thing?"

"Count, it's just too much."

Wang Dahai's eyes lit up at the moment, and after hearing Li Jin's explanation, Wang Dahai understood the true meaning of this sink.

If it is really as Li Jin said, then the shipbuilding industry in the future will develop rapidly, and it will be difficult to create the kind of thing that finally builds a ship, but the ship capsizes.

It is a pity that once this kind of thing happens, most of the hard work of half a year will be wasted.

"Next, you can take a good look here, and you can transform this place according to the Longjiang Shipyard."

"If it feels too small, you can scale it up a little more."

"Give me a copy of the list of craftsmen in the shipyard before, and I will go to the imperial court to ask for orders later, and bring all the craftsmen over, so that they can contribute to the shipbuilding industry of the Ming Dynasty."

Wang Dahai was already so excited that he couldn't speak at this moment, and the crutches fell down in an instant, and he himself knelt down towards Li Jin.

I didn't expect that I could really re-establish a new Longjiang shipyard in my lifetime.

Although it is now called Bao Shipyard, it is pinning his hopes for the future of the Ming Navy, so that Wang Dahai finally feels that the world is worth it.

However, Wang Dahai was helped up by Li Jin and said:

"Master Wang, don't keep kneeling."

"If you really appreciate me, help me get this shipyard right, it's my hard work, I don't want it to end up in vain!"
