Chapter 187: The Steam Ship Tests the Waters
Everyone hates the Apocalypse, but everyone longs to be a part of it.
This feeling is like you know that joining the Apocalypse is a betrayal of Zhongzhou, but the days when everyone in the Apocalypse is rich are what all ordinary people yearn for.
It can be said that the emergence of the apocalypse has awakened the consciousness of all ordinary people.
At this time, Liu Qingge, who had just finished the entire overseas channel of the Huanghuali project, had already started to prepare for the launch of the transnational tourism project.
Once launched, this project will not only allow more and more people to know about Apocalypse, but also bring additional tax revenue to Apocalypse.
When Liu Qingge came to the shipyard, she happened to see Marco Polo, she stepped forward with a smile and said: "I heard that our five-story luxury ferry is about to be built, this time with a new innovative technology?" ”
"Yes, Your Majesty, this is an encyclopedia I bought from a country called the sun never sets, their ships are all steam as the driving force, which can greatly speed up our navigation, we went to the Northern Desert at a speed of five days, but with our steamboats, we can reach the Northern Desert in about two days."
Liu Qingge was overjoyed to hear this, the appearance of steamships could greatly shorten the shipping time, so that the fruits on their island could be sold to the outside world.
"Marco, you're amazing!"
"This is thanks to Your Majesty's appreciation, if it weren't for Your Majesty, Weichen's sailing dream would not know when it would come true." Marco Polo scratched his head embarrassedly when he heard Liu Qingge's compliment.
"Needless to say, it's because Mark you're so talented, you can be a great navigator with or without me."
The discovery of islands and overseas resources is incomparably great, and Marco Polo is also a very honest person, and the rich rewards brought by his voyage are enough to shock the entire Shenzhou continent.
"Your Majesty, maybe Mark didn't meet His Majesty to have a chance to succeed, but it will definitely not be as successful as today, I can have today's success thanks to Your Majesty's foresight and open-mindedness, any new thing needs to invest a lot of money to verify. I just mentioned my idea to His Majesty, but I didn't expect to get so much financial support from His Majesty in the future. ”
"Mark, the reason why I believe in you so much is because I can see the light in Mr. Mark's eyes, this kind of light is not something ordinary people can have, I believe that Mark is destined to make a good career because of his dreams." Liu Qingge said with a smile.
When Marco Polo heard Liu Qingge's words, he was even more grateful to Liu Qingge.
Maxima often has, but Bole has only one person.
How many people in this world have dreams, but how many people have really reached this peak?
Undoubtedly, Marco Polo felt that he was lucky, and he really did not expect that in a short period of time he could get what many navigators would have in their lifetime.
Whether it's money, status, or dreams, he got it all!
"Your Majesty, today we are going to officially launch the water for the first time, and please experience it yourself."
When many ministers heard Marco Polo's invitation, they were shocked and said: "No, Your Majesty must not, such a dangerous thing as a sea trial can not be tried by a daughter like Your Majesty." ”
"Yes, Your Majesty must not do such a high-risk thing."
"This so-called steam engine, everyone has seen it for the first time, and they don't know if this thing is safe or not, so it's better not to try it easily, and when it's time to sail, it's not too late for Your Majesty to go up."
Marco Polo didn't expect that he just wanted Liu Qingge as an investor, the first to experience the steam ferry, but he didn't expect to be opposed by so many ministers, he was a little embarrassed on his face, but he didn't say much.
Liu Qingge saw Marco Polo's embarrassment, and said loudly: "Needless to say, I believe Mr. Mark, even the steamship that tested the water is equipped with enough lifeboats, what do you have to object?" It's not a dangerous thing to do. ”
"Your Majesty is like this, if Your Majesty's relatives participate in the launching, in case the launch fails this time, it will definitely get ridiculed by many people, so Your Majesty should not get involved, after all, it is normal for the first voyage to fail, and it will not be good if it hits the enthusiasm of all the craftsmen."
"Yes, Lord Yan has a point!"
"I also think that Lord Yan is right!"
Liu Qingge squinted his eyes, this Yan Youzhi seemed to think about himself every time, but when he tasted it carefully, this Yan Youzhi's words always felt that something was wrong.
"Lord Yan, if I have already said that I am going, but I change my mind because I am afraid that this voyage will fail, isn't this the morale of everyone?" Liu Qingge looked at Yan Youzhi with extremely dangerous eyes.
Yan Youzhi didn't seem to see the killing intent in Liu Qingge's eyes, and said without changing his face: "Weichen is doing this for the good of Your Majesty, if Your Majesty can't understand my hard work, then no one in the world will be able to understand the minister." ”
"Yan Youzhi, what you said here will hit the confidence of the entire Navigation Division, please Lord Yan can know how to be measured, otherwise Hugh will be ruthless!"
Liu Qingge usually calls himself "I" with the ministers, and never deliberately emphasizes the difference between monarchs and ministers, but now he directly changes his self-name to Yan Youzhi, obviously really angry.
Yan Youzhi heard the chill in Liu Qingge's words, and he broke out in a cold sweat, and he didn't dare to say more.
"Ministers, rest assured, this steamship is a very common and common technology in which the sun never sets, I hope all ministers can look at this matter normally, so I hope you don't say more, Mark is willing to pack tickets to everyone, if not, I am willing to resign as director of the navigation department." Marco Polo said in a deep voice.
At this moment, everyone looked at Marco Polo, but they didn't expect Marco Polo to use his official title as a guarantee.
If anyone who has studied navigation knows that it is normal to have problems in the first test of the water, but I didn't expect this Marco Polo to be so confident.
Suddenly, the opposition gradually faded down.
Liu Qingge directly said: "Then it's decided, wait for me to get on the boat in person!" ”
"Welcome Your Majesty aboard the ship to observe."
"Welcome Your Majesty aboard the ship to observe."
“……”
The sound of Qi brushing came from not far away, and it turned out that all the shipping craftsmen were concerned about this matter.
Liu Qingge said with a smile: "Everyone has worked hard! ”
"With His Majesty's concern, everyone is full of energy!"
"Yes, yes! Energetic! We are not afraid of hard work! ”
"Thank you Your Majesty for your concern!"
"Thank you Your Majesty for your concern!"
For a while, an endless stream of thanks came.
Everyone was excited that Liu Qingge could agree to get on board and participate in the first water test!
