Datang broom star

"Can I show Jia a look?"

"Ahem! Well, just wait, Duke Jia."

Master Jia has just done a big favor to the Ministry of Industry, so Huang Wan is very cheerful.

When the drawings arrived later, Huang Wan had a smile on his lips.

This guy thinks I'm looking for nothing?

Jia Ping glanced at it.

A battleship in later generations needs countless parts and components, innumerable.But the wooden boat at the moment is much simpler and clear at a glance.

This boat is a flat-bottomed boat, and Jia Ping'an disliked it for this alone.

If you want to go on a long voyage, the ship type is the obstacle first.Are punts any good?good!When the wind is not strong, it is as stable as sitting on land.

But after going to sea, it is over. Why is this era afraid of long-distance voyages?The first is because of insufficient navigation means; the second is that ships are prone to capsize after encountering wind and waves.

It is a tragedy for a flat-bottomed boat to encounter wind and waves, and it can only resist by its own weight.

"It's not good."

Jia Ping shook his head.

Huang Wan frowned, most of the goodwill and gratitude towards Jia Ping'an just disappeared, "Ahem! What does Junjun Jia mean by this?"

"I said this ship type is still the same, not good!"

Jia Pingan asked: "Maybe this kind of flat-bottomed boat sails far? During the last expedition to Liaodong, the fleet transporting grain and grass encountered a storm. The storm was not too big, but most of it capsized in the end."

It's not too far from Dengzhou to the peninsula, but in the eyes of the Datang navy, it is always in crisis.

You are bragging!

Huang Wan smiled and said, "Ahem! Do you have a better idea for what Junjun Jia said?"

Yan Liben heard the smell of gunpowder, and coughed dryly, "Huang Shilang, don't be aggressive."

The old man is aggressive?

Didn't he, Jia Ping'an, question the old man first?

Huang Wan felt as if she had met her stepmother's child, "Ahem! Shangshu, these craftsmen racked their brains to figure out these ship models. There are so many people and so many talents. I have been thinking about it for a long time, but I can't find a place to buy it. There is room for improvement, the flawless shape of the ship, but Junjun Jia can’t say that this is humiliating the craftsmen, and even more so, the old man.”

Huang Shilang Huang Shilang's words did not anger Jia Pingan.

"Times have changed, Huang Shilang, you must dare to innovate. If you stick to your old ways, with all due respect, the Datang navy will never be able to go out of the sea!"

"Cough! Why go to the far sea?"

Huang Wan didn't understand even more, "The navy of the Tang Dynasty just guarded the sea. Now that Liaodong has recovered, why go to the far sea?"

"I now know why some are out of place"

Only then did Jia Pingan know why he felt out of place.

In his mind, he clearly knows the future course of history, what is wrong with this Tang Dynasty, and when to do things, but others don't know!

Look at Huang Wan, with a look of disapproval, that confident look reminds Jia Ping'an of Jia Yu's always confident face.

"There are great interests overseas." Jia Ping'an is working very hard, "But if you want to grab those interests from overseas, it is impossible to rely on the feet of the army. The only way is to build a huge fleet that can sail long distances in wind and waves. "

"Cough!" Huang Wan said with a smile: "Overseas interests, how big are the interests? Trying a new ship type rashly for this reason?"

"The benefits that can make Datang reborn!"

Jia Pingan became more and more impatient, "This matter has passed the test of His Majesty and the prime ministers. If not, how could Your Majesty agree to large-scale shipbuilding?"

"But..." Huang Wan was a little confused.

What are the benefits of going overseas that both His Majesty and the prime ministers are tempted by?But Jia Pingan didn't say anything.Forget it, what Jia Pingan said is not bad, but the shape of the ship is going to change, where will it change?

"Ahem! The old man will naturally discuss with the craftsmen about the shape of the ship."

Just calm down.

Huang Wan regained her confidence.

"I have a type of boat."

Jia Pingan took Yan Liben's writing brush and pulled a piece of paper. Old Yan's hands were empty and helpless.

Sharp-bottomed boat!

Jia Pingan drew the shape of a sharp-bottomed boat, but his painter looked at Yan Liben with a confused face.

"Xiao Jia, what are you?"

"Sharp-bottomed boat." Jia Pingan glanced at his masterpiece, it was crooked, and the proportion gap between front and back was so big that it made people despair

I'm not good at drawing, but at least I can see the general shape!

Jia Pingan coughed dryly, "This boat has a sharp bottom, so the lower part goes deep into the water and becomes one with the water. When the wind and waves come, the boat will swing, but because of the deep draft, it can recover no matter how it swings."

The biggest disadvantage of sharp-bottomed boats and flat-bottomed boats is that they carry less cargo and personnel.

"Ahem! This boat..." Huang Wan's eyes widened. "I'm afraid this boat will capsize crookedly if it hits the water."

Ha ha!

Foolish people!

Jia Ping'an knew that no matter what he said, he could not be convincing.

"So, wait and see."

His eyes are bright.

"Cough! Build a model?" Huang Wan said with a smile, "I'll wait and see."

After Jia Ping'an left, Yan Liben sighed: "Xiao Jia is impulsive, but he is a good person. This boat is Huang Shilang. Although the old man doesn't know how to build ships, Xiao Jia will never shoot without aim."

At the beginning, Jia Pingan said that he could solve the reef blocking the waterway in Sanmenxia, ​​who believed it?As a great craftsman, Yan Liben didn't believe it, but in the end he was slapped in the face.

"Little Huang, be careful."

Yan Liben hinted earnestly.
