Chapter 237: Be sure to go to the Qinglou to see it

But the silver belongs to Zhu Bai, and he can play how he likes.

Besides, the people who came with Zhu Bai all grew up inland, and they were also very curious.

Then a group of people surrounded Zhu Bai and went to the "Xiangwang Dock".

The dockyard was busy, some were planing the boards, some were painting.

The tooth chief called the foreman of the dockyard over: "You can introduce your highness." ”

Then the foreman began to whine.

I didn't understand, I didn't understand a word.

Min Nan......

Passing by the government office along the way, the officials told him official words no matter where they were from.

The common people also speak Wu Nong's soft language, which is similar.

Only here did he realize that he was out of the range of Wu language.

Zhu Bai looked at the tooth chief with a blank expression.

"He said that the Fu ship has a pointed bottom, a small square head, a wide tail, and many watertight compartments, which is especially suitable for ocean voyages. Combat ships are also available. ”

Then Zhang Yu and they instantly understood.

This is the last time the little prince ambushed the Japanese invaders, and he plans to strengthen the equipment at sea.

Tooth Chang went on to explain: "The ships that sail are relatively large. The big ship can reach more than 40 zhang, 18 zhang wide, and 2 zhang draft; The ship also has more than 30 zhang, 15 zhang wide, and a draft of 1 zhang and 5 zhang. Warships are small fortune ships, including sentinel ships, winter ships, bird ships, and clipper ships; Among them, bird boats include wave boats and cangshan boats. Now that the dockyard has made a medium ship and a variety of warships, His Highness will see which one first. ”

Zhu Bai was very excited: "Let's look at the biggest one first." ”

Then the foreman took them to a large ship.

Zhang Yu and the others were all frightened by the size of this ship, and they were all dumbfounded.

Chen Youliang is known as the water overlord, but he doesn't have such a big boat.

Fugui saw the big ship for the first time, and the whole person was stunned.

Zhu Bai patted Fugui's shoulder: "Look at it well, maybe one day, you will drive such a big boat and take this king everywhere, ah, don't do business everywhere." ”

Fugui muttered, "Can I?" ”

Zhu Bai said: "You can do it, I am optimistic about you." ”

He has already planned that if China is so big and can't escape it, he will flee to Brunei, Indonesia or something, and he can live quickly.

So build the ship first.

Besides, the Japanese are rampant, and if he doesn't get a few warships to come out and teach them a lesson, he always feels sorry for the trip back this time.

Then the foreman took them to see the warship.

Zhu Bai frowned after reading it: "Although this is said to be a warship, it has no offensive and defensive capabilities. For example, the wave boat must be a striker, so the bow is pointed, and it is useful to strengthen the impact resistance of the iron sheet on the front bread, and for example, this winter ship is obviously the main ship, which is heavy in itself, and it is necessary to use its weight to impact the enemy's ship, so it is best to add conical iron spikes in addition to the iron sheet on the bow. Add artillery and a muzzle for the gunners to hide. And this clipper, since it is to be fast, it is impossible to be fast just by rowing, and it is necessary to find a way to use a faster way. ”

The foreman scratched his head: "Speed up this, I can think of a way, but the iron ship may sink." And the iron sheet is easy to rust. ”

Zhu Bai said: "Anyway, it's a sealed cabin, and it's a big deal to increase the size of the sealed cabin." There is also a way to think about the matter of embalming. Ponder and ponder, and don't call a few blacksmiths. ”

The foreman hesitated: "Is it okay?" ”

Zhu Bai patted the foreman on the shoulder again: "You can do it, I am optimistic about you." ”

In the morning, Zhu Bai watched very happily and beat chicken blood everywhere.

Everyone was very happy to receive his encouragement.

Everyone is happy, everyone is happy.

Zhang Yu secretly laughed: This little prince is really more than a little sleek than Lao Zhu. It doesn't matter if you give a slap and a sweet date, you don't refuse to roll around.

Anyway, what works well, what to use.

Coming out of the dock, Fugui asked Zhu Bai in a low voice: "Your Highness is really knowledgeable, how can you know the structure of the warship." ”

Zhu Bai smiled: "Haven't you ever eaten pork and never seen a pig run?" Besides, I have so many masters, and I teach a lot of things. ”

-----

Fuzhou to Guangzhou is full of mountain roads, if you go to the sea, it will be much smoother.

Originally, there were official ships to follow, and he was not afraid of the Japanese invaders, but as long as Zhu Bai saw the customs and the living conditions of the people, he insisted on taking the land route.

Overall, the mountainous areas of Fujian and Guangdong in this era are still very bitter. Snakes, insects, rats, ants, jackals, tigers and leopards can be seen everywhere.

No wonder the convicted either went north to the northeast or south to get here.

The commander of the Guangdong capital was avant-garde from Guangzhou early in the morning, and the left guard each sent guards to protect Zhu Bai.

It's just that there are a lot of people sent, enough to send a thousand people, and the black pressure is large, like a worker bee surrounding the queen bee to surround Zhu Bai in the middle.

The others didn't even have a chance to see Zhu Bai clearly, let alone get close to him.

The battle was a bit big, but Zhu Bai could understand it, so he went with them.

Zhu Bai looked at the city wall of Guangzhou from afar, and he was quite excited.

Guangzhou was the only open port in the Ming Dynasty, and it must have been much more prosperous than other places.

Fucheng is under the control of Panyu County and Nanhai County, and is the residence of the Guangdong Chengxuan Political Division.

The west of the city belongs to Nanhai County, and the east of the city is under the jurisdiction of Panyu County.

Zhu Bai put his luggage in the official tooth bureau and immediately went to the west of the city for a walk.

It's not like there were many foreigners later, but there are already a lot of foreign gadgets.

Moreover, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and there are many entertainment venues.

Zhu Bai stopped in front of a building called "Red Fragrance Pavilion".

There are red lanterns hanging in front of the building, and it is located in a prosperous area with a lot of people coming and going, but the door is closed in broad daylight.

What is not a green house?

It's obviously a green building, but it's still early, so it's all closed.

He raised his head and looked at the plaque with interest: Tsk, Yingtian's first green building is the official green building built by Lao Zhu, called "Fuller Courtyard".

It is to "put the women's market to collect money from men to become officials". To put it bluntly, is it to increase the income of the imperial court, because there will be a war at that time.

Wars are fought not by force but by financial resources, and silver flows out like water.

It is not enough to just pick up the wool of the big households, and after a long time, the big households will also resist, making Lao Zhu's rear unstable.

Therefore, Lao Zhu followed Guan Zhong and opened official prostitutes to generate income.

And this Fuller House takes the high-end route, specializing in serving the rich and powerful.

The money came quickly, easily, and was well received.

As soon as Lao Zhu tasted the sweetness, he couldn't stop it, and built the "Sixteenth Floor of Jiangnan" one after another.

Zhu Bai wanted to see it.

But he also knew that Lao Zhu ran the Qinglou by himself, but he would not like his son to visit the Qinglou.

If he did this under Lao Zhu's nose, he would have to make Lao Zhu and Concubine Hu Shun angry and have a cerebral hemorrhage.

Now that I've finally arrived in Guangzhou, what is the emperor far away?

He must come to this place to check in!!

Zhang Yu's heart was shocked, seeing Zhu Bai staring at the red lantern in the Qinglou and not moving his feet, he was distressed in his heart, and he was busy looking at the rich and noble.
