First of all, the wood that can be used to build ships has a requirement in terms of felling time. It is best to cut it in spring and summer, so as to avoid being eaten by termites and other insects. The wooden boards might have pitted a whole boat of people by then.

Then, the felled wood has to be dried in the shade. Note that it must be dried in the shade instead of being placed in the sun. This step alone will take several years, and it must be brushed with tung oil every year, and then the tung oil will gradually penetrate into the bottom layer.

In addition to the above two points related to craftsmanship, the wood used in shipbuilding itself has requirements for materials, not all wood can be used, let alone size requirements.

It can be said that with the shipbuilding technology of this era, any ship is the crystallization of craftsmanship and sweat, and is the result of several years of continuous work by a group of craftsmen.

But with Zhang Nuo, everything is different. Although it is still very complicated and troublesome, after all, it is much better than before.

Chapter 558 Zhang Nuo Has Been Released?

Before Zhang Nuo brought it up, the concept of dry dock did not exist in the Tang Dynasty and even before. In everyone's understanding, the ship should be in the water.

When Zhang Nuo first proposed the concept of dry dock, those craftsmen naturally dared not say anything on the surface, but they kept murmuring behind their backs. After all, a ship should be in the water, which is the eternal truth.

In the end, when Zhang Nuo actually got out the dry dock and began to build the first standardized sea-going ship in it according to his arrangements and drawings, many craftsmen had to sigh, "It's really fragrant."

That's the power of insight, and dry docks are just one part of it.

The second major change that Zhang Nuo brought to everyone was the structure of the ship. In fact, there were very few explorations of the sea in this era, basically staying in the inland sea and offshore.

Even the current and future sea-going ships cannot be called professional sea-going ships. They are actually being built according to the routine of inland river ships.

After all, people in this era did not have a clear enough concept of the wind and waves on the sea, and they did not expect that a V-shaped bottom of the boat could solve so many problems.

For these craftsmen, flat-bottomed boats are their tradition, their inheritance for many years, and their...

Then they were beaten by Zhang Nuo!

What Zhang Nuo said at the time was very clear, you are here to do the work for me, not to beep, before I fail, I will do what I say, and when I fail, you will come to give me your opinion!

Then these people are honest. After all, the boss is so angry that he is talking about others. If you still want to go up to the line, it is probably not a problem of deducting wages. It is really a big deal.

Of course, Zhang Nuo belongs to the kind of people who will definitely give a sweet date to a stick. Zhang Nuo didn't force them to act recklessly, but first let them build a ship according to the blueprint given by Zhang Nuo. mold.

Then this ship model with all the details exactly the same as the real ship, the traditional ship built by the craftsmen according to the same idea was simulated in the pond, and then these craftsmen were completely speechless.

If it is just driving smoothly, there is not much difference between the two, but when all factors such as wind and waves are taken into consideration, you will find that after changing the shape of the bottom of the ship, the whole ship is much stronger against wind and waves up.

These craftsmen don't know what the center of gravity is, what fluid mechanics is, let alone buoyancy calculations, volume calculations, etc., but this doesn't mean they can't understand the results.

Obviously, the things Zhang Nuo produced are more resistant to wind and waves than what they insisted on, and at the same time, they seem to have some other advantages. For example, with the same material, Zhang Nuo's products seem to be able to carry more goods and so on.

After being slapped face to face by Zhang Nuo first, and then slapped in the face with technology, these craftsmen were completely honest and started to build ships seriously.

However, there is also a problem here, that is, the material is still not very easy to solve.

In the end, Zhang Nuo was so forced that he couldn't do anything about it. After much deliberation, he went back to his old job and scraped the ground!

After all, after all, they led troops to raid the entire territory of Koryo, and they really found a lot of processed raw materials from many places.

Of course, these alone are definitely not enough, so Zhang Nuo took out the second trick-to tear down the east wall to make up for the west wall!

He basically dismantled all the official ships of the former navy and the like in Goryeo. As for why he didn’t dismantle the private ships, this is actually very simple. One reason is that they are now the people in his jurisdiction. , if you can not bully, don't bully.

Another reason is very practical. Those folk boats are all offshore fishing boats. They are really too small, and there is not much wood in all of them. It is better to let them keep them for fishing.

These things were handled by Zhang Nuoshun years ago, and now he came here just to see what the hell the seeds he sowed years ago have become.

But at least from the perspective of the construction of the port area, it is quite good. Zhang Nuo said a long time ago that a large number of warehouses are needed here. After all, there will be more and more goods entering and leaving the port area. The warehouse is estimated to be able to earn a lot of money.

Then, the use of a large amount of cement makes the entire port area completely different from the traditional port. There is no mud and sewage everywhere, and everything looks extraordinarily clean, especially the local turtles in Korea, who can't wait to lie on the ground.

Zhang Nuo originally thought that he could really see a satisfactory result when he came this time, but when he saw the sea ship in the dry dock that hadn't even finished laying the keel, and a few scattered craftsmen there After shaking and knocking, the whole person was stunned.

Is it because I am too talkative on weekdays, causing these Tie Hanhan to forget who the boss is?

Or are these idiots planning to rebel?

Standing next to Zhang Nuo, Cao Xing, who temporarily assumed the position of commander because Xingben's business license was revoked, was almost sweating.

As for Yaoshou, His Highness seems to be really angry!

Mother, His Highness's fists are clenched, isn't this going to kill all the craftsmen present?

As Zhang Nuo's personal guard, Cao Xing had been to the port area twice even if he was not the commander, so he was very aware of Zhang Nuo's concern for this side.

But now that these shipbuilders are so lazy and not working, Cao Xing knows that today's matter may not be good.

Zhang Nuo's temper is indeed very good. He has no airs on weekdays and is extraordinarily generous in his shots. Not only the guards who follow him know this, as long as they make a living under Zhang Nuo's hands, they will basically be fine after a while. Know.

However, if you think that Zhang Nuo has no temper just because of these, then you are totally wrong.

This group of people was transferred from the palace to Zhang Nuo by Li Shimin very early on, and their time with Zhang Nuo was really not short. Because of this, when Zhang Nuo was really angry, it was really scary, just like now.

At this moment, Zhang Nuo was like a puffer fish, constantly inhaling and exhaling, and his whole body swelled up with each exhalation!

Damn, these days, people are really kind and bullied, and horses are good at being ridden by others. He is a first-class prince of the Tang Dynasty, and he is the most honorable prince among the first-class princes.

It's not over!

Chapter 559 Want to kill chickens and monkeys?

In the era of Tang Dynasty, the relationship between employers and employees is actually similar to that of later generations. After all, all bosses actually rely on the hard work of employees to earn money.

There is a good relationship with the staff, and there is no distinction between superiors and inferiors. Everyone gets along very well, and it is even common in Datang that several generations work in the same family.

Of course, there are those who get along loosely like relatives and friends, and there are naturally harsh ones, who think of ways to deduct wages and squeeze labor hard. The 996 of later generations is considered a wool here, and here is the real day and night.
