Chapter 184 Battleship and Empty Gloves White Wolf
After leaving the newspaper office, outside the door, several people looked at the distance, a place surrounded by large walls and smoke, and were a little curious.
"Anyway, it's okay to come today. My nephew would just take us around and take a look?" Xiang Wenxuan said what everyone was thinking.
Cao Yan did not refuse this and nodded and asked, "Okay, where do you want to see?"
Several people glanced around.
Xiang Wenxuan pointed to a tallest chimney and asked, "Where is that place?"
Cao Yan looked at it and thought for a while, and replied, "Can you go see the place where iron should be smelted?"
Xiang Wenxuan shook his head and said, "Iron Smelting, he was not interested. He has been there many times before. It was hot and dangerous. Many of the people working inside were shirtless, just surrounded by bibs on their legs. It was really inconvenient to take these girls with them.
He looked around again and saw a huge workshop by the river. He knew that Cao Yan had asked for many boatmen, and he wanted to see what the ship Cao Yan built was like.
So he pointed to the direction of the dock, "That's where my nephew built the ship?"
Cao Yan looked at that direction, thinking about the twenty or so nights he had been there, his face was a little bad. Of course, he still replied: "Yes!"
Xiang Wenxuan obviously noticed that Cao Yan's face was wrong and asked with concern: "Why, are you in trouble with shipbuilding?"
"No, it has been solved, but many ships have not been done yet, so they have a headache." Cao Yan rubbed his face.
"Oh, is there something wrong?"
When Cao Yan heard Xiang Wenxuan's words, his eyes lit up. Yes, there was a big tycoon in front of him, why did he forget him? So Cao Yan asked, "Does the prince's family have a boat?"
"Yes! Why do you need a boat?" Xiang Wenxuan asked.
"Go and transport some things back." Cao Yan replied.
"Transfer things?"
"right!"
"Go to where luck?"
This is a bit far from being said, and it is difficult to answer.
Cao Yan looked at him with the expression you didn't ask so clearly and we could still talk, but he didn't reply for a long time.
Xiang Wenxuan obviously found that he seemed to have asked a lot, and smiled generously, changed the topic and said, "Go and see the boat you built first."
Looking at the busy craftsmen in the shipyard, a few of them were visiting casually.
After all, the time is still short, and many ships have just laid keels and put some shelves on it.
Xiang Wenxuan looked around and asked with a little curiosity: "Nephew, the boat you built is a bit big and has a bit strange shape! By the way, what is that over there?"
Xiang Wenxuan pointed to the corner and asked in a place where he was blocked.
Cao Yan looked at that direction. It was his nightmare for about twenty days all night. He gritted his teeth and replied: "Boat!"
"Why are the boats placed in that corner and still being stopped?" Xiang Wenxuan asked curiously.
"That ship is a bit special," Cao Yan answered.
This special word immediately made everyone present very interested.
"Go and take a look!" Xiang Wenxuan took the lead in walking over there.
...
...
"Hiss... nephew, are you sure this is... a boat?" Xiang Wenxuan felt his legs tremble a little.
Not to mention the other girls, especially the little raindrops, their faces were so scared that they were snow-white!
In front of me is a steel ship that is more than 140 meters long, more than 6 meters high and more than 14 meters wide.
Of course, if anyone who has studied the history of world warship development, he can endure the prototype of this ship and the system magical version of the "Wisbaden-class light cruiser" class.
Its shell has been formed and shines brightly in the sun. It was made by Cao Yan using his armor to absorb particles such as steel in these twenty nights. It is a special space special steel. It can be said that in this era, except for God, only Cao Yan can make it sink, and no one else can break its steel plate.
Xiang Yixin knocked forward a few steps, and the hull made a "dang" sound of steel.
"Will this iron ship sink?" Xiang Yixin asked curiously.
When Cao Yan heard this, he immediately wanted to curse and glanced at Xiang Yixin with a helpless look.
"Yi Xin shouldn't be so heavy, right? After all, it was built by Mr. Cao." Zhong Xinyi smiled faintly and corrected Xiang Yixin's mistake.
But Cao Yan's face became darker here, and he turned to sigh and stared at Zhong Xinyi speechlessly.
Xiaoyudian found that Cao Yan was even darker, so he quickly shook Zhong Xinyi's hand: "Miss, Miss, you also said the word "Shen". This kind of lottery is not good!"
Cao Yan...
Well, today it was all due to Fatty Luo who didn't come. Otherwise, with the mouths of these four people, his ship would probably have sunk.
When Xiang Wenxuan heard the words of several people, he chuckled softly, "Nephew, how long will this ship be built?" He was also full of curiosity about this giant, wanting to see what the ship was like after being built.
Cao Yan looked at the internal assembly drawings next to him and estimated, "It should be more than ten days left, and he will be able to get into the water in about ten days."
"Okay, I'll go to help you find a way in the past ten days. How many boats do you need?" Xiang Wenxuan asked.
"The more, the better!" Cao Yan looked at the rolling river water, thought for a while, and said.
"Okay, wait for my news."
After visiting the crowd for a while, after lunch here, they said goodbye and left.
...
...
"Open the door quickly,..." A violent knock came from the front of the Liu Mansion.
When the door heard this familiar voice, he quickly opened the door.
"Young Master, why are you back?" The door asked angrily while opening the door.
But Liu Xiucai didn't even answer, and shouted, "Dad," and ran towards the inner room.
It lures out all the people in the house.
"Son, why are you back? Is the private school holiday on today?" A middle-aged woman jogged out from inside and asked.
"Mom, no, what about the right dad?" Liu Xiucai asked hurriedly.
"He was still there just now..." Before the woman finished speaking, she saw a black-faced middle-aged man walking out of the backyard. He was Liu Xiucai's father, Liu Lichang, and the village chief of Liujia Village.
"Why are you coming back after not having a holiday?" Liu Lichang roared with anger.
"Dad, good news," Liu Xiucai quickly took out a newspaper from his cloth bag and handed it over.
Liu Lichang took the newspaper and said in confusion: "What is this? What is good news?"
"Dad, look at this!" Liu Xiucai quickly turned the newspaper to the last page.
Liu Lichang looked carefully and asked, "Is this?"
"This is what Cao Sanhuo made. Our village is a distance from Jiangning Mansion. The news will definitely not come so quickly. As long as we borrow all our household registrations, it will be more than 400 stones in vain." Liu Xiucai said quickly. Their village is a large village with more than 4,000 people, and 800 guan is not a small number.
"This?" Liu Lichang looked at the news and suddenly asked a key question, "By the way, how many pieces of this thing are? Don't tell me that I want two hundred words per copy?" He raised the newspaper in his hand and asked, after all, books of this era are not cheap.
"Dad, this thing is called a newspaper, it only costs five cents per copy. Come quickly and gather everyone. If you slow down, you won't be in a hurry."
"It's only five cents?" Liu Lichang obviously didn't believe it, "Aren't you cheated?"
"Why? When I came back, someone had already changed it. I rushed back after seeing it." Liu Xiucai was a little anxious. If he had known, he would not have been waiting there to see it, so he came back directly. Now his father still hasn't finished asking. He really cares that someone in the village will go to the market to get the news.
Liu Lichang paced back and forth in the yard.
Liu Xiucai was anxious, "Dad, stop thinking about it, I'll be back later if I'm afraid others will come back."
"But what if someone doesn't lend it?" Liu Lichang asked.
"We can say that we can borrow it and give it ten cents. When they hear that they have money to make, how could they not borrow it?" Liu Xiucai quickly came up with an idea.
"Are you sure, is this true?" Liu Lichang asked worriedly.
"Dad! If you don't feel anxious, you really won't be in a hurry."
