Chapter 176: Zheng He's Treasure Ship
Amidst the sound of fireworks and firecrackers, Ying Zheng, the unsmiling emperor, burst out into rare bursts of laughter.

For a moment, Brother Zheng was having a great time.

Brother Zheng is having fun.

Ying Changsheng suddenly heard a burst of system prompts coming from his mind.

I only heard the system prompt saying at this time.

[Congratulations to the host for inventing fireworks]

[Reward, Zheng He Treasure Ship Construction Technology]

what?
After realizing what the rewards are in your system.

Ying Changsheng couldn't help but show a surprised expression.

Well, for the Zheng He treasure ship.

Ying Changsheng still understood something.

You know, he has seen countless legends about Zheng He's voyages to the West in later generations.

Moreover, as far as he knew, Zheng He's treasure ship was quite a huge ship.

As for the equipment on Zheng He's treasure ship, there is also the shape of the ship.

That was only invented in the Ming Dynasty.

technical level above.

It far exceeds the navigation technology mastered by the current Great Qin Empire.

You know, Zheng He's treasure ship was the farthest, but it once sailed to far away Africa.

And now, Da Qin’s building ship.

Although it sounds like a name, it looks quite majestic, as if it can go to sea to fight.

But actually?
Daqin's building boat.

It simply doesn't have the strength to make a long voyage.

The building boat is too tall.

If you go to sea.Facing the sea surface and the sudden sea wind, the boat will have one result, that is, it will be blown directly on the sea surface by the wind.

Therefore, the current Ying Changsheng.

Although he has always been committed to the development of the Great Qin Empire.

However, he never tried to make the Great Qin Empire leave the land and go to the sea.

Because Ying Changsheng is very clear.

For a country with very backward navigation technology.

Forcibly asking sailors to carry soldiers and caravans, and then take a boat to unknown waters from the sea, it is simply asking the sailors to commit suicide.

And now, after obtaining the Zheng He treasure ship.

All of this is not a problem at all.

All I saw was a deep smile on Ying Changsheng's face.

pondering.

Go and make a Zheng He treasure ship.

Then, take a sea trial, if you can.

In the future, this type of ship will be promoted throughout Daqin.

Then, build a powerful navy of the Qin Empire.

……

"Young Master Nineteen, do you want to build a ship??"

After hearing what Ying Changsheng said, Gongshu Shang made a face, and his expression immediately changed.

At the moment, he is busy preparing the fireworks show for Ying Zheng.

After all, this was an order from Ying Zheng.

It is the highest instruction of the Great Qin Empire. Under such circumstances, countless officials in the Shaofu are busy with one thing, which is to make more and better fireworks as soon as possible, and then set them off during the Spring Festival in the near future.

At that time.

In order to add a strong stroke to Yingzheng's literary and martial arts.

So at this moment, after hearing Ying Changsheng say that he wanted to build a ship, Gongshu was a little confused because he didn't know how to build a ship. Although he already knew that his nineteenth son was a little out of his mind.

But I didn't expect that the idea of ​​winning longevity would jump out.

Suddenly wanted to build a ship.

"Young Master Nineteen, this pass is not under the waters of the south of the Yangtze River. There are no boats here, just a sheepskin raft. What are you building this boat for?"

Gongshu Shangzao looked at Ying with a frown. Changsheng wanted to persuade the latter to give up the idea of ​​building a ship, but Ying Changsheng smiled confidently at Gongshu Shangzao.

"Of course I don't build a boat in this inland river. Row a boat in the small river. The boat I built is a big ship that can cross the sea, the sword of waves, and sail along the coast to the deep sea against the wind and waves!"

Just as Ying Changsheng's voice fell, Gongshu Shangzao's expression suddenly changed.

People in this era generally have a kind of awe for the power of nature.

At this moment, I could only see the heaviness of Gongshu Shangzao, and he said to Chang Sheng in front of him.

"Young Master Nineteen, I'm afraid this is inappropriate. You don't know. The sea is very dangerous. If you send people out to sea rashly, it will kill people without a place to bury them!"

Gongshu Shangzao finished speaking.

Another negative teaching material mentioned, only heard him explain.

"That Xu Fu deceived Your Majesty back then, saying that there was some Penglai fairy mountain in the East China Sea. Your Majesty sent him to lead a fleet to go to sea to search for it, but he never found it. He was probably buried in the belly of the fish. You, Nineteenth Young Master, built the ship for nothing. It’s really inappropriate to go to sea!”

"You don't understand that on this sea, there are thousands of miles of blue waves. If they surge up, they can reach a height of more than ten feet. If there are any strong winds and waves, it will be even more dangerous. Let's not build a ship..."

What Gongshu Shangzao said is very reasonable, at least in the current era.

In the current Daqin, if someone proposes to create a large-scale naval fleet, and then send tens of thousands of soldiers to a Daqin voyage to the West.

Well whoever made this suggestion.

Ying Zheng would definitely have his head chopped off without hesitation.

There's a reason for that too.

Because it is limited by technology.

Navigation at this time is quite barbaric and quite dangerous.

Compared with the Song and Ming Dynasties when navigation technology had matured.

The Qin Empire had no way of sailing far.

The tall and large building boats produced.

When driving along the coastline in the offshore, it is possible to capsize.

Let alone on the ocean.

Sailing across thousands of miles?

so.

At this time, under the actual conditions of backward productivity.

What Gongshu Shangzao said is true.

Because it took a lot of manpower and financial resources to make the building boat.

Facing the natural power above the sea, it seems so fragile.

It wouldn't go very far at all.

Instead of wasting money to make such a building boat, it is better to do some other things.

However, Gongshu Shangzao's vision is still old-fashioned, and he doesn't know the current situation.

He didn't know that the current navigation technology of the Great Qin Empire was about to usher in a cross-generational development, but he only heard Ying Changsheng say with a smile.

"This boat is relatively easy to solve. Of course, the boat I want to build is not the kind of tall, big, and dangerous building boat!"

Ying Changsheng said with a smile, first complaining about the uselessness of the building ship.

Well, due to the current prevalence of water wars in inland rivers.

So in the boat of the moment.

Most of them were built, like city walls on land, tall and big.

And this is definitely a taboo in the shipbuilding industry.

After all, the boat is tall and big, and the draft is shallow.

And the wind-exposed area has seen an increase in the number of such ships.

Used for water combat with the enemy.

That must be a lot of advantages.

But if it is used for sailing, it is simply courting death.

I heard Ying Changsheng taking out a scroll from his arms with a smile.

Immediately, Ying Ying Changsheng directly opened the scroll, and then placed it on the table, but the scroll said to Gongshu who was at the side.

"Look at this boat designed by me!"
