() With the overtime work of the Amber Dao people and the hull boatmen, the first 500-056 class container ship built by Longjiang Shipyard was officially launched.

Zhao Ran rushed to see the launching ceremony and was satisfied with the overall condition of the boat. After the ship is launched, it will take a period of time to equip it with sails, anchors, charm devices and other equipment, plus the sea trial, it will take about a month to be officially finalized, and it will not be in a hurry.

But Zhao Ran believes that the problem should not be big, after all, it is a wooden sailboat, which can basically be used after launching, and there is no cumbersome and long-term debugging process. Therefore, he directly allocated the first amount of silver to the Longjiang Shipyard, totaling 100,000 taels.

The 056-class warships and fast sea patrol ships that Zhao Ran is most concerned about at present are still in the process of preparing materials, and he wants to see them completed, at least two months later, which makes him a little regretful, regretting that he did it too late.

In order to boost morale, Zhao Ran specially allocated 300 taels of silver and gave a "Mid-Autumn Festival condolence fee" to the craftsmen and shipwrights of the Xinjiang Shipyard to encourage them to work overtime and contribute to the shipbuilding cause of Daomen.

Just after the Mid-Autumn Festival, Zhao Ran began to consider the recruitment of sailors for the inspection fleet. Half a year later, the inspection fleet will welcome the first batch of ships, four warships, four patrol ships, and 36 container ships, and a total of nearly 1,000 sailors, gunners, and nearly 60 monks.

The sailors are good to say, Nanzhili and Zhejiang are both coastal provinces, as long as the salary is sufficient, there are a large number of sailors willing to apply. The point is that there are relatively few monks who are willing to go to sea to be captains, and now they must prepare in advance.

To this end, Zhao Ran once again summoned the young monks in "Junshan Notes" and "Inside and Outside the Imperial City", and this time, his announcement was less word-counting.

Above is an illustration of a warship cleaving the waves in the sea, but in fact there is only the bow of the ship, and on the bow stands a sword-wearing monk, holding a wine gourd in his left hand and a rudder in his right hand.

At the bottom of the picture, there is a sentence written: Do you want to become a captain? Our journey is the sea of stars!

This is a posing photo, the protagonist on the picture is Lei Xiaoge's resolute Du Yangchen, and the photographer is Qianxun Daotong. Zhao Ran believes that Du Yangchen's face is thin and photogenic, and his own military achievements are impressive, which can be a model, so it is easy to say that he agreed to serve as a propaganda ambassador.

After the announcement was issued, a group of monks were immediately attracted to apply. In view of Zhang Zheng's previous experience, Jimingguan conducted a strict review of the background of the recruiters, and all those who were unclear were blocked, and recruited 150 monks on the day of the registration deadline.

Among them, there are 27 pavilion monks, 123 scattered cultivators and sects, 18 Jindan monks, and the rest are all below the yellow crown.

In the setting of the course, in addition to inviting experienced generals in the coastal sailors to give them lectures, they also invited Wang Chengyu and Qianxun Daotong to come to Jimingguan to explain overseas affairs to them, and at the same time took out the first container ship that was built, and carried out sea training for them at the same time as sea trials.

Lu Xixing has been involved in the preparation of the training of monk trainees, and at the opening ceremony, he said to Zhao Ran: "Lei Xiaoge attaches great importance to the training course of sea captains in Jimingguan, and my family ancestor and Du Tianshi often contact me to inquire about the progress. ”

Lei Xiao Pavilion didn't pay much attention to maritime affairs before, their focus was on the Buddhist Gate in the west and north, and what Zhao Ran did didn't necessarily really attract the attention of the two True Masters sitting in the hall, but this was filling the gap in the affairs of Lei Xiao Pavilion, and it was not surprising that it attracted the attention of the two True Masters.

While they were talking, Li Dayin, who was also helping to prepare for the training class, came over and asked, "When will Zhiran return to Dajun Mountain?"

Zhao Ran said: "I'll leave tomorrow, this month, please bother the two of you." In addition, Zhang Luo, the governor of the military department and the Chinese army, has agreed to disband some of the officers and soldiers in the water battalion, and ask the two of them to be ready to receive them, which is the backbone of our inspection fleet. ”

Zhao Ran wanted to go back to get married, and the captain's training class was handed over to Lu Xixing and Li Dayin, Lu Xixing was responsible for training, and Li Dayin was responsible for management, each performing its own duties. They will also rush to Maharaja Mountain on the first day of the double cultivation ceremony and come back after watching the ceremony.

Li Dayin rubbed his palms and said: "Zhiran rest assured, we will not slack off, recently I feel that following Zhiran to build bridges and build sailors is much more interesting than earning silver, when I think of the grand scene of the gathering of warships at sea that Zhiran said, I am so excited that I can't sleep." Tomorrow I will move to the Rooster Singing Watch, and watch these guys study and train every day to see which of them dares to be lazy!"

Zhao Ran smiled: "You can't let go of the cultivation ball tournament and the lottery, that is the pillar of our funds for building a bridge and building a fleet." ”

Li Dayin said: "Don't worry, the affairs of Yuanfu Palace, Senior Brother Peng has already been able to take over." ”

The next day, Zhou Keli and Ling Congyun, disciples of Yuanfu Palace, drove the infinite rosette to Jimingguan, picked up Zhao Ran, Luo Zhiqing, Su Chuanyao, Zhuge Jiaguang and others, and flew straight to Dajun Mountain.

The magic weapon flew steadily in the air, leaving the hustle and bustle of the Beijing Division, with only the blue sky and white clouds around him, Zhao Ran was suddenly clear, quite a bit of "in the cage for a long time, back to nature" feeling.

Luo Zhiqing closed his eyes and cultivated in the corner of the lotus, this belonged to his normal state, and everyone did not disturb him.

Looking at the white clouds outside the lotus leaves and the cyan boundless mountains and rivers below for a while, Zhao Ran asked, "Are there any new periodicals?"

Zhuge Jiaguang hurriedly took out the latest "Inside and Outside the Imperial City" and handed it over, Zhao Ran nodded: "Read." ”

Su Chuanyao took it and turned the first page: ""Intercepting passing ships at sea just to avoid paying the maritime trade permit management fee?" Recently, it was rumored that a small number of overseas monks had privately convened a meeting to prepare to establish a ......."

Listening to Su Chuanyao's recitation, Zhao Ran closed his eyes and adjusted his internal breath, and his inner eyes sank into the sea of merit and strength.

The white light of the divine consciousness in the sea of qi transformed by the golden pill has completed its substance, and there is no room for merit to accept merit power, and merit power is still full of qi sea, meridians, and acupoints. There was still a lot of merit power around the body, and the drill bit was trying to squeeze into the body.

The white light of the divine consciousness that had turned into substance was just suspended, shining brightly in the sea of qi.

Zhao Ran began to act according to the cultivation method of the Innate Merit Sutra, catalyzing the white light of divine consciousness.

"Lift up water to stir up fire, and extinguish the light. The sun and moon phases are eclipse, often in obscurity. The water is full of sunshine, and the fire fades away from the dusk. Yin and Yang phase diet, sympathetic Tao is natural. ”

Yin and Yang in the body are sympathetic to each other, Yin is the true Yin, which is the acquired true Yin, Yang is the true Yang, and is the nectar transformed by the innate essence. As for the middle palace, the true yin of the day after tomorrow is combined with it and condensed into a great dan.

Love is the husband of the essence of the yuan, and sex is the wife of the true yin of the future, the two are in harmony with the true meaning, and they are attributed to the middle palace, and the lead and mercury are condensed into the holy womb.

The holy fetus is complete, a child's cry faintly echoes around, within the sea of qi, there is an innocent child sitting between heaven and earth, holding a pu fan in his hand, refining the gossip purple jade pill furnace, and the runes transformed by the rootless and flowerless talisman follow his breath in the body one by one, extremely mysterious.

The consciousness of the infant has become a baby, and the baby has become a baby. On August 28 of the first year of Longqing, Zhao Ran entered the sixteenth year of cultivation and entered the realm of refiners.
