Son-in-law: The Goddess's family was cheated at the beginning

Chapter 71 Shipbuilding
Two yachts appeared on the horizon.

There was a man standing on the bow of the leading yacht.

He is Charles' sworn brother, Jerry.

Jerry has a nickname that resounds throughout the mercenary world: Meat Grinder.

The two-meter-tall muscular man has rows of bullets hanging from his body. His body is covered with scars. These scars are proof of his honor.

He grinned and said to the brothers on both sides: "Brothers, here we are, Charles will prepare a grand welcome ceremony for us later!"

"Meat grinder, I heard that Charles is your apprentice, he has to arrange a bigger girl for me!" said an ugly one-eyed man with dreadlocks, big lips and dark complexion , making him look like a giant bear from the abyss.

"One-eyed Bear, don't get excited, Charles is the most loyal person, he will definitely satisfy you!"

The people on the two boats were talking and laughing, and the speed of the boat suddenly increased. When the boat approached the pier, they saw this rather primitive camp.

On the pier, there are more than a dozen girls in hot clothes, holding cloth balls in their hands, warmly welcoming the visitors.

Seeing this, Meat Grinder and the others also laughed.

The meat grinder said: "Brothers, have you seen it? The girls here are beautiful and sassy. We..."

Before he finished speaking, an arrow suddenly appeared silently between his eyebrows. The meat grinder lost his balance and fell off his clothes.

"Fire!" Shen Lang suddenly shouted from the shore.

Soon enough, dozens of oil drums were lifted up one after another, and with the crisp sound of cannons, the wrapped medicine packages rushed out of the oil drums.

These medicine packs drew arcs in the air, some exploded in the air, and some exploded in the water. The sound was deafening for a while!
A ship was directly bombed and sunk, and a dozen or so mercenaries were all attracted by the beauty in front of them, so they didn't react immediately.

For a while, there was no leader among the dragons, and they were caught off guard.

"It's Charles who plotted against us. He definitely doesn't want to share the treasure map! Retreat, retreat!" the one-eyed bear shouted at the few men.

For a while, the ship immediately turned around.

Wave after wave of arrows forced the opponent back, and Shen Lang immediately announced a cessation of attack in order to save ammunition.

Everyone also came to the middle of the camp, and Liana said: "We have won!"

"They are just retreating temporarily. Next time, their attack will be very terrifying. We have to hurry up and repair the ship." Shen Lang said.

When Shen Lang said this, everyone's joy stopped immediately, and everyone looked at Shen Lang with bated breath, waiting for Shen Lang's next arrangement.

And Shen Lang asked people to salvage the sunken ship, after all, the engine of that ship can also be used.

In this way, their new boat has two engines, which can also save a lot of time.

He returned to his residence. At this time, Jiang Meiqi felt very uncomfortable. She thought she was pregnant before, but she didn't expect it to be bloating.

Shen Lang also couldn't laugh or cry at Jiang Meiqi. He came up and said, "Meiqi, we won."

"Oh..." Jiang Meiqi stirred the paste. It was a slurry made from seaweed. It contained starch and could be eaten as a staple food.

"You want a child?" Shen Lang hugged her from behind.

Jiang Meiqi blushed, she nodded, "Don't let it go outside next time..."

"Actually, I thought... let's go back first, wait in Jiangcheng, we'll hold a wedding... we'll have children after we get married, okay?" Shen Lang held her hand.

Jiang Meiqi's eyes were wet, and she pouted: "A while ago, I was really happy for nothing..."

"Silly girl." Shen Lang kissed her on the cheek and pinched her cheek lovingly.

"Okay... you can go out quickly, the shipbuilding cannot be delayed." Jiang Meiqi pouted.

"Um……"

Shen Lang came outside, and Jiang Meiqi was also standing at the door looking at him, she suddenly found that when Shen Lang went out, Lianna immediately came up to him.

The woman's intuition told Jiang Meiqi that Lianna's feelings for Shen Lang were probably not just the friendship between friends, but also seemed to have other meanings.

But Shen Lang seemed to keep a distance from Liana.

Sometimes Lianna's face will suddenly appear lonely, which makes people think too much.

"Is it an illusion, or..."

Jiang Meiqi pursed her lips, but she still didn't say anything.

Lianna also saw Jiang Meiqi, and she nodded friendly.

At a ferry where the ship was being built, Shen Lang discovered that after a month of construction, the hull was roughly completed.

This is a multifunctional ship, not small in size, and looks like a pirate ship from the Age of Discovery.

Because I was worried about not having enough gasoline, I also installed sails. In this way, there are two kinds of power, which can save a lot of fuel when sailing.

"I have always had a question, how can this sailboat sail against the wind?" Shen Lang asked the engineer of the shipbuilding.

The engineer took off the helmet made of coconut shells, and he said with a smile: "This is aerodynamics. Let me explain to you briefly. The wind is the driving force of the sailboat. When the wind is down, the sailboat can open its sails and blow along with the wind. In the direction of the wind, sailing straight ahead. When the wind is against the wind, it is impossible for the sailboat to sail in a straight line smoothly. "

He drew on the ground with a branch, and continued to point to the pictured ship on the ground and said: "At this time, you should tilt the bow of the ship to the direction where the wind is blowing, and then adjust the angle of the sail so that the wind blows on the sail, creating A force that moves forward obliquely, and the boat also moves forward obliquely."

"I know, that is to say, after a while, turn the bow again so that the other side of the boat is facing the wind direction, and the sailboat will move forward diagonally in the other direction. Left, then right for a while, sailing against the wind, in technical terms it seems to be called: sailing against the wind?" Liana said.

The engineer raised his thumb: "The eldest sister is still very knowledgeable, but the size of the sailboats is different, and the shape of the sail and the mast supporting the sail are also different. The traditional square sail is suitable for traveling downwind and was developed from the triangular sail. The longitudinal sail is conducive to traveling against the wind and is also very convenient to operate. Now we use dual power, which can reduce fuel consumption to the greatest extent, but it will take some time."

"How much time will it take?" Shen Lang asked.

"It's about two-fifths, but the safety is greatly increased." The engineer explained.

After being told by the engineer, Shen Lang basically understood, and he said, "I'll go hunt wild boars in the woods, and add food for you at night."

"Okay!" The boatmen cheered.

Lianna on the side laughed and said: "I'm afraid all the wild boars on this island will be wiped out."
