"Captain Beidou, don't brag about this guy, he is modest with you on the surface, but he doesn't know where he is proud in his heart!"

Ying and Paimon both put their hands on their waists and looked at Li Qiuzhi with disgust.

"Ahem, let's hurry up and get out of this area, lest the smell of blood attract more monsters."

Li Qiuzhi touched his nose in embarrassment and changed the subject.

"Haha, that's right." Beidou chuckled twice, then looked at the strong man at the rudder of the ship with his right eye without an eyepatch and said, "Sea Dragon, let the brothers stop sleeping and speed up the use of this sea area." ”

Not only is the Death Omen lined with a row of huge oars on each side, but it also has two propellers at the tail that resemble wooden wheels.

With them, even when there is no wind, the sails will not work, and the Death Omen Star will be able to sail normally.

For example, when the wind is blowing now, activating it at the same time as the sails can give the Death Omen a slight boost, and if you are in any danger, they can be very useful.

The only downside is that both the propellers and the two large rows of oars protruding from the sides of the hull are human-driven.

It would take several sailors to shake an oar, so if you want to get the Death Omen up to speed, you have to stop sleeping.

Watching the sea dragon go to the shipyard and start calling people, Li Qiuzhi suddenly said to Ying:

"Do you think it's possible for us to make a steam engine?"

If the Death Omen is equipped with a steam engine, it will not only save manpower, but also improve its performance a lot!

He hadn't seen anything like it in Mondstadt or Liyue, and perhaps the more developed Fontaine and Solstice would have it.

But whatever their situation, since they didn't have anything like a steam engine in Mondstadt or Liyue.

This shows that at least the steam engine market in these two countries is blank, if they can get the steam engine out, they can still make a lot of money!

Anyway, with the development of society, the emergence of steam power should be inevitable, rather than let others make this money, it is better for them to come!

Moreover, the steam engine is essentially boiling water, and this kind of thing may also replace the coal mine with fire element ore, which is pure and pollution-free and does not have to worry about the destruction of the climate and environment caused by the appearance of the steam engine.

As for the scarcity of fire element ores and the fact that they are more expensive and not worth boiling water, these problems are actually very easy to solve.

After all, although there are not many fire elemental ores, fire slimes are not uncommon!

If they were to be caught and locked together, it would be very feasible to use them as a substitute for a fire source to boil water, after all, this is what the hilichurls did, and these "predecessors" had already practiced it.

Moreover, as elemental beings, they can absorb the fire elements in the environment to survive, and they basically don't need to spend any effort to raise them.

It's really not good to throw a piece of fire elemental ore into it, judging by Li Qiuzhi's experience, it can probably make a bunch of fire slimes "eat" for a long time.

This is much more affordable than the pure use of fire element ore and coal burning, and it is very convenient to take care of it without much care.

Li Qiuzhi had already thought of the popularity of the "Fire Slime-type steam engine" when it was born, after all, the role of the steam engine was so great that it even promoted the industrial development of Mondstadt and Liyue!

"You say it easily, do you know how to design it?"

Glowing amber eyes glanced at him, shook his head, and said.

"It's good to know the principle and have ideas, and how to figure it out is just to let Ningguang find some scholars in related majors to set up a laboratory to study."

Li Qiuzhi put his arm around Ying's shoulder, naturally pressed against her cheek, and smiled and gave a very lazy but still feasible solution.

A great inventor only needs a little inspiration and a clear idea, and how to solve the specific problem is left to others.

"You guy. It seems like it does."

Ying staggered close to Li Qiuzhi to stand firm, and then pressed her chin to think for a while without paying attention, and found that it seemed to really work.

"Well, the two of them are talking about things that people don't understand."

Paimon spread his hands helplessly.

"Haha, we don't understand either." Beidou smiled and looked at the sky, then said to the wandering samurai of Inazuma, "Kazuha, it's not windy now, you can help." ”

"Hmm."

Kaedehara Kazuha nodded, casually attracting the wind elements between heaven and earth to let them blow on the sails to help the Death Omen Star move forward.

See this situation.

Li Qiuzhi and Ying also stopped discussing, and also attracted an appropriate amount of wind elements to blow on the sails, which could be regarded as sharing the pressure of Wanye.

Under the vast night sky, the Death Omen broke away from the sea at a breakneck speed.

But before completely moving away, Li Qiuzhi summoned the "Glowing Sword God" and let "her" stay where she was, in case the corpse and blood of the giant beast really attracted many monsters.

Isn't that just a good time to brush up on the experience points!

After leaving that sea, the rest of the days became boring and boring life at sea.

Of course, Li Qiuzhi will not stay on the ship all the time.

When I have time, I have to go back to Mondstadt to accompany Fischl and Sucrose and many other girls, as well as Shenhe, Hu Tao, and Yun Jin from Liyue, and any of them can go and chat with each other when they have free time.

In order to gain favor, this is necessary.

And Mona often comes to study the mysterious starry sky in the "fairyland", and many times she forgets to sleep and eat, and Li Qiuzhi also has to bring her food, so she can't be hungry.

When they were busy, Li Qiuzhi was looking for monsters at sea to brush up on experience.

I really don't know if you don't come to the sea, there are a lot of monsters here, and most of them are fish monsters, such as black-eyed fish with two rows of serrated teeth, sharp knife sharks that can use thunder elements at extremely fast swimming speeds, etc.

In just a few days, the types of monsters that Li Qiuzhi saw surpassed those he had seen on land for more than half a year.

The ocean is a vast unknown world!

In addition to cultivating a relationship with girls, he is also more concerned about the "Sweet Flower Chamber of Commerce".

I often go to Ningguang to learn about the production progress of bicycles, chess and other entertainment and educational game toys, the former is still in the stage of setting up factories and production lines.

The latter was relatively fast, and it took only a week to complete all the production preparation work and was ready for mass production.

It doesn't take half a month for the store of "Sweet Flower Chamber of Commerce" to open and sell the first product!

Li Qiuzhi is also looking forward to this, which means that the day when he and Ying will have income and become rich is not far away!

Regarding the steam engine, Li Qiuzhi also talked to Ningguang in detail, and she also attached great importance to it, and had already begun to set up a steam engine laboratory for research.

After all, it can lead to a series of industrial reforms, greatly liberate the productive forces, and make people's work more diversified.

And to promote social progress, the country's strong steam engine, in addition to the merchant or the condensation of the Tianquan Star, how can it not be moved, no matter how much Mora spends at a loss, it has to be brought out!

The days of fulfillment do not feel like time has passed.

Soon, a month passed, including Li Qiuzhi himself, as well as the people and things around him, all of which had undergone tremendous changes.

Ask for a monthly pass, ask for a recommendation, ask for a follow-up, thank you for your support!
