Traitor Summoning System [Infrastructure]

Shipyards are, of course, built on the water's edge.

There is a shipyard in the lakeside town of Little Thorn Castle, which is a dock-style shipyard.The dock-style shipyard is a very traditional shipyard. First, an open space is dug by the lake to form a temporary factory. After the ship is built, the lake and the open space are opened up. When the water fills the open space, the ship will naturally float and just sail directly into the lake. up.

Of course, this method is limited to large ships. If it is a small boat, it can be dragged into the water casually, and this problem does not exist.

The dock was invented by Zhang Ping, a man of the Song Dynasty. Later dynasties widely used this method to build ships. Zheng He’s treasure ships used this kind of dock.

The shipyards by the sea are different.

Dockyard-style shipyards can only build one ship at a time, and their implementation is prone to waste of resources.There is a great demand for shipbuilding at sea, so this method is not suitable.

Zhang Hongfan used a more traditional tow boat to launch, which is simple and practical.But of course it was not a group of stupid people who dragged the boat into the water with all their strength. The bottom of the boat was densely covered with sorghum straw or mud with good lubricating properties, so that towing the boat would be much easier.

In fact, until now, some small and medium-sized shipyards in southern my country still use this method, which shows how practical it is.

When Leonard was watching a movie, he saw a bunch of logs put under the boat and then pushed the boat. He told Zhang Hongfan, and Zhang Hongfan shook his head, "This method is very impractical."

"Ah? Why?" Leonard didn't understand, it was like this in the movies.

Zhang Hongfan replied: "The keel of a ship is very important. The bottom of the ship is not smooth. This method will damage the bottom of the ship and even damage the keel."

"I see..." Leonard nodded.

Leonard found a natural harbor surrounded by a peninsula on the east side of the mainland. Some residents lived here. Leonard waved his hand and built Zhenhai City on the basis of the village. From now on, this will be an important military base of the kingdom.

The ocean-going fleet, Leonard intends to build it according to the feeling of Zheng He's fleet, which is a big project.Wei Zhongxian's eyes sparkled after hearing this: "Your Majesty, I know Zheng Gong's supervision very well, let me supervise the construction together."

"Ah, I thought you had no special interest in the sea." Leonard said.

"This is Zheng Gong!" Wei Zhongxian said, "He is the person that our servants yearn for." After a pause, Wei Zhongxian said: "He lives like a man."

It is true that Zheng He is really the most admirable eunuch in Chinese history on the whole.

Wei Zhongxian admired Zheng He very much. In his free time, he liked to read the documents of Zheng He's voyages. Firstly, he admired Zheng He himself, and secondly, he admired the prosperous Ming Dynasty during Zheng He's period.He also imagined that when the internal and external troubles were over, he could lead the fleet to gallop the sea. After waiting for a year, two years, three years, his hair turned gray, but Daming's problems became more and more serious. In the end, he hanged himself in the room. On the beam, the body is dangling, dangling, as if on a boat on the sea.

So now, Wei Zhongxian can directly recite a bunch of materials about Zheng He's treasure ships, and he happens to be building the fleet with Zhang Hongfan.

Wei Zhongxian didn't understand the meaning of a lot of information, but just memorized it in his mind, but after reciting it to Zhang Hongfan, Zhang Hongfan understood the operation process after a little thought.So the two cooperated very well.

……

There are countless resources that can be mined in the vast sea, and the place with the most resources on land should be the forest.

Leonard promulgated the "Forest Law" shortly after he came to power. Unlike the previous laws that specifically oppressed civilians, this law clearly stipulates that within the scope of the kingdom, civilians can go fishing, hunting and gathering firewood in the forest, but the forest There may be dangers here, and for the sake of hunting efficiency, it is recommended that you go with the hunting team.

When Leonard was the former prime minister, he devoted himself to standardizing the various occupations in the kingdom, and so did the hunters and his party.

Towns and villages organized hunting teams. The hunting teams were equipped with the bows and arrows and weapons issued above—actually the armaments eliminated by the soldiers. The hunting teams were led by experienced old hunters, and the meat and money were shared. Everyone was envious and shouted Want to join the hunting team.

As a result, after more than a year, everyone found that it is easy to make money by farming, raising pigs and sheep, and going out to work and repair canals.Hunting is relatively unstable.There is everything in the market, all kinds of meat, vegetables, melons and fruits. In addition to firewood, there is another kind of coal, which can burn for a longer time and emit more heat. Two pieces of coal can spend a warm winter night.Everything changed for the better.

According to Leonard's words, productivity is greatly improved, the economy develops, and the people will naturally become rich.

So later, everyone chooses a career according to their own needs.

……

Two months after the Harvest Festival passed, the first snow fell in Blazing Sun City.

It snowed very heavily that day, from morning to night.Leonard has read some novels recently, and always feels that this kind of picture seems to indicate something.

In the evening, the snow stopped, and the room was a bit stuffy. Leonard asked the servant to open the window, and the wind blew in, making it surprisingly dry.

The wind in the mainland is varied, and the wind in Little Thorn Castle is always very humid, bringing the breath of lakes and swamps.The wind in Forest Leaf City smelled like excrement and urine... Well... At that time, the wind everywhere except Little Thorn Castle had this smell.But to be serious, the wind in Linye City carries the fresh breath of trees brewing, that is because there are many, many trees in Linye City.

To the north, the climate in Broken Star City is very dry. In summer, the scorching sun scorches everything on the ground, and that kind of light can easily make the skin feel tingling.Blazing Sun City has the best climate, neither too humid nor as dry as Broken Star City, and the Imperial City is indeed located in the best place in the entire continent.

Leonard breathed in the clear snowy air, and asked the servant next to him, "What's for dinner today?"

"The lamb sent by the Prime Minister, and some vegetables in the glass greenhouse." The servant replied.

Leonard's daily food is not particularly rich, and he thinks that too much of each meal is a waste.Although he has been in a high position for many years, he has never had some airs of people of this era, and the 'treacherous officials' around him also like him like this, so he has been able to maintain his true colors in this regard.

This evening's dinner is mainly a little lamb from Blazing City.

The lamb was four months old, and it was very healthy. The people on the ranch noticed it at that time, and it has been raised well since it was born, and it is ready to be presented to His Majesty the King when it grows up a little.

Lamb meat is very fragrant. Compared with ordinary lamb, lamb meat is extremely tender, and it is not greasy. It is a first-class dish.

The quality of this piece of lamb is very good, and it has a beautiful marble pattern after being cut. The chefs are going to make a few more tricks after seeing the total, otherwise such good ingredients will be wasted.

In Leonard's education and the atmosphere of eating and eating with people all over the country, chefs feel that their profession is very noble and sacred.

Leonard heard that there were four-month-old lambs sent by the pasture, so he went into the kitchen by himself and directed it himself.

The first thing to do is the sheep scorpion hot pot.

Leonard is very fond of the sheep scorpion hot pot. The first time he saw the sheep scorpion hot pot was on TV.The program called "Hope English Outlook" gave him food enlightenment, but unfortunately it was discontinued later.

Sheep Scorpion is Yang Daliang, because it looks like a scorpion, so it has such a name.Sheep scorpion itself is a good thing with low fat, low cholesterol, high protein and rich in calcium. It is easy to absorb and tastes very delicious.Winter has a special bonus for the sheep scorpion hot pot. Leonard watched the chefs scalding the sheep scorpion with boiling water, and his saliva came up.

The quality of the lamb meat is really very good. You can tell when the water is hot. The fishy smell of the lamb is almost gone, but the meaty smell has spread out.

Put the water to stew the mutton scorpion over high heat, then sprinkle pepper, cumin, and nutmeg in sequence. After a while, the soup turns milky white. Leonard reluctantly glanced at the tempting soup and forced himself to Focus on the rest of the lamb.

Cumin mutton is naturally a must. Cumin mutton is best made from the hind legs of lamb. Slice the mutton and distribute cumin, green onions and other ingredients for stir-fry.This is a Xinjiang dish with a strong and fragrant smell. The mutton is soft, tender and salty, with a strong cumin flavor, a bit like Xinjiang kebabs.The natural mutton fried in this way is very tender, very fat, with plenty of gravy, simple and delicious, very good.

The ensuing part-baked roast, soup-boiled soup, and with the hard work of a team of chefs, the dinner was on the table in no time.

Leonard had dinner with Wei Zhongxian and Gao Lian, and discussed matters by the way.

In fact, Leonard mainly wanted to ask about Gao Lian's activities during the New Year. Wei Zhongxian said before that since Leonard appointed him as the former Prime Minister, it would be best for such matters to be tried by him in the end. Leonard thinks it makes sense , but privately felt that this might be because Wei Zhongxian wanted to have dinner with Leonard every night. After all, the food here is really good.

There are also specific evidences. When there is something to do, Wei Zhongxian will come over to eat and discuss matters openly, and when there is nothing to do, Wei Zhongxian will come over and say, "Recently, I am used to eating together with Your Majesty, so I came here today. By the way, there are some things I want to ask Your Majesty to decide."And those things, how should I put it, Wei Zhongxian can completely decide by himself.

Leonard took a sip of the mutton scorpion soup, and the rich umami taste overflowed in his mouth, followed by the warm taste and mellow aftertaste. The mutton scorpion meat was extremely soft and tender, and the warm taste of the mutton soup seemed to wrap his whole body Living in general, the feeling is really wonderful.

Take another bite of cumin mutton, the aroma of cumin permeates the body, and the hot and refreshing feeling interrupts their discussion for a while.

After a long time, Gao Qiu said: "I think it's enough to have a very grand dinner party, and everyone will be very happy."

"Well, everyone will be very happy." Wei Zhongxian said.

Leonard: "..."

You lazy bastards!

There was heavy snow on the branches outside the window, some birds flew over and landed, and when they flew up again, the branches trembled, shaking off the snowflakes all over the ground.Really cute.

The atmosphere of the palace is still very good today.
