When Li Chengqian was once again presiding over the spring ploughing, the Wuhan Patent Factory listed the patent for building a large ship in Zhenguan's eight years, and the Xiangzhou Shipyard was formally established on the same day. At the same time, there was also the Jiangxia Sailors Solidarity Society, which was originally to be named the Jiangxia Sailor School, but because of the opposition of the students of the academy in Hanyang City, it was abandoned.

However, for the common people, it is still customary to call the Jiangxia Sailors Solidarity Society "Water Ghost School".

"Now there is a great shortage of sailors on big ships, and there are many turtles, and those who can't even raise and lower their sails have been recruited. In recent years, the most people have died, and it is this kind of goods that have died. ”

"What is this, Wang Donghai has a Tongren Medical Hall there, and he has his own medical hall in Fusang. Three orders and five declarations, the boat should be prepared with bean sprouts, fruits and vegetables, but some people do not believe in evil, the year before last, a few boats, drifting to the southeast of thousands of miles of stone ponds, are a dead boat. ”

"Not really."

"In the event of a storm, if you can't get close to the mainland, what can you do? Drift and float, and then die. ”

In the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, there is a great demand for boatmen, sailors, and captains, and the local magnates have adopted sophisticated and sophisticated methods to annex land in order to set up clever projects.

In the past, the county order was in office, but it was just a fight with the local wealthy people without breaking it, and the county officials and the like were just playing scheming with the officials, but now it is a big deal, if it is just a "clear stream" from the ordinary imperial examination, when it comes to the locality, it will not be able to play the current situation at all.

Not to mention the local tycoons and officials, only to say that the powerful and businessmen colluded, and a set of account books were thrown out, and the county order had no way to say anything, and he was not the boss of Qian Guqian, relying on the "free heart certificate".

Many local people with some courage, for the sake of livelihood or for the future, in short, in their hometown, they guard the fields, and they can't break two hundred acres horizontally and vertically, but overseas, the emperor decreed that as long as they can occupy land and operate, that is your industry and your ability.

And the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, isn't it beautiful to be a pocket "prince" by himself?

It's a bit of an ostrich mentality, but a low-level person who really has the courage to fight with the powerful is really a minority of the few.

If you really want to see blood in anger, most of the people at the bottom will not be reckless and foolish, and those who are intellectually superior will rarely be degraded. There really is such a reckless hero, who can make great waves, not to mention the local government, from the emperor to Sannong, he will probably be killed.

Zhenguan Dynasty is an extremely rare peaceful period since the Han Dynasty, some old people, do not need to say that those who are alive in the south and north dynasties, only say that the former Sui Dynasty has fallen, and it is not too late for thirty years.

The half-aged who are not confused or know the destiny of heaven, even if they only plant dozens of acres of thin land, they will never want to see the rise of reckless heroes to set off that inexplicable wave.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom......

The hydraulic forging hammers of the Hanyang Shipyard are very powerful, and there are more and more counterweight cranes on the wharf, and all of them use steel fittings, which are more durable and durable, and the efficiency of loading and unloading is also greatly improved.

Even in the rice and flour grain and oil wharf, there are special rails, when Suzhou and Hangzhou are still using wooden rails, Hanyang has used rails, and the rolling carriages on the rails have exceeded the imagination of the people of Chang'an in the old days. The load-bearing wheels of these carriages are also specially equipped with brake discs, which are also steel components, which can be described as extravagant.

The entire wharf and port, not to mention three steps, one sentry, five steps and one post, but there are also a large number of policemen and white servants, as well as the security team trained here by the Wuchang regiment.

The reason why this is the case is that there are countless thieves who steal iron and steel, and there are more and more local laws and regulations in Wuhan, but they are still hard to catch, and they are almost never clean.

Lao Zhang is also helpless about this situation, after all, the eighteenth year of Zhenguan is not the era after 1,500 years when stealing iron to sell it was ridiculed for not having enough strength to make money.

"Oh......"

"This is fourteen years to build a big ship? It's huge! ”

"Fubo Giant Kun, is that so?"

Different shipbuilding lines, there are fourteen years of different progress to build large ships, and the densely curved keel is like a giant whale bone that rots after death, but it is not buckled on the ground, but lying down.

A group of children dressed in distinctly uniform costumes were brought on a tour, and beyond the white stop line and the fence, they watched from a distance as the huge man-made object broke into their eyes.

"Look! There! There's a big ship coming to shore there! ”

"Ah, it's really, it's big!"

The children were suddenly attracted by a large boat draped in red silk, and even the children had heard of some of the special rules of the local boats.

For example, most of the ships hanging red silk cloth came to the port and docked, and most of them came from the South China Sea, and they were lucky.

"Wow! Look, look, the bow of the ship, there's a big mussel shell on the bow! ”

"Is it a mussel? How can it be so big? It's still white! ”

"What a mussel, this is from the South China Sea, it must be a mussel!"

"Sir, sir, is this a mussel?"

Suddenly, a child asked their husband.

Unlike the others who wore robes, this gentleman was dressed in a somewhat unusual way, wearing a long-sleeved jacket with a pair of tight trousers underneath, but also wearing a sleeved cape that could not be seen from the back.

Wuhan has countless "strange costumes", and when it was originally attacked by other places as the "Devil Capital on the Earth", it was somewhat inferior, but as time went on, it regarded itself as the "Devil Capital on the Ground", and it became more and more ignorant of the attacks from outside.

"It's about a clams, it's a great treasure of the South China Sea."

"Tridacnus?"

There is a record in the "Nanhai Museum", and there is also a picture drawn by a master sketcher under the command of Shan Nanhai. Tridacnus is also a type of mussel shell, which is what the book says. ”

"Wow! Over there, there's a red tree next to the big mussel shell! It's beautiful! ”

"That's not a tree, that's coral!"

"Coral?"

The two children quarreled again, and then turned to look at their husband.

"It's Sango, do you remember the story of Shi Chongdoufu in our class? That's what the coral in the story looks like. ”

"It's beautiful......"

The children clamored to see what was going on, but the shipyard and the dock were still checked, and it was impossible not to communicate. Fortunately, the leader of this wave of visitors to the shipyard seemed to have a relationship with a person in charge of the dock, and the students watched Mr. run to talk to Pang Que, the logistics director of the dock, and then a team of security guards came over to escort the boat they went to the shore.

The boat finally stopped, the sails were retracted, the anchor was tied to the cables, and soon the slides on the dock buckled the ship's side, and then the counterweight crane began to operate, and the different sizes of cargo were unloaded from the ship in different ways.

And the children finally saw the ship full of all kinds of new and strange things in the South China Sea.

"Wow, that's a big fish!"

"That's a dragon, what a big dragon!"

"There's a cage there, it's a big python, is this big python dead? Yes! Ahhhhh

The lazy python spat out its black, red and purple tongue, and the curious bear child who was frightened cried at that time. The python's body is thicker than himself, how can he not cry?

"Hahaha......"

For a moment the laughter rang out, and soon it was muffled by a new burst of exclamations.

"Is this the legendary elephant?"

"And the buffalo."

"Huh? This cat is so ......."
