Chapter 338 Shipyard (IV)

Like the five thunders slamming into the top, like the collapse of Mount Tai, all Zhang Yang's confidence was shattered in an instant.

You said that you asked me to pull Yuanshun Emperor Dashitemuer over, and I was confident that I could do it, but what did you say to let me marry Zu Qing? Mr. Zu, are you confused and Alzheimer's disease? Can this wife marry casually? I already have a wife and have children, can I still marry? Bigamy is a crime

Zhang Yang was struggling in his heart. He said just now that he could agree to everything, but, can he agree to this matter?

"Mr. Zu, you probably don't know that I already have a wife and children. I can't marry again, right? Can we change to someone else?" Zhang Yang said.

After hearing these words, Zu Qing's face turned red at the beginning. I wonder why his grandfather proposed this condition. However, since ancient times, marriage has been the order of his parents and the matchmaker's words, since his only relative, grandfather, wanted to betroth him to Lord Zhang, he had to agree.

Unexpectedly, Lord Zhang refused. This excuse seemed not very clever. I wonder how this battle was accomplished?

Hearing this, Zu Xingzhi continued, "This husband already knows that Lord Zhang is a wife, so I can't do immoral things and let you divorce your original wife. Let's do this. Qingqing married her and can't be a concubine or a fair wife. Your original wife will be bigger and she will be young. Is that okay?"

How can this work? Zhang Yang was hesitating and struggling. To be fair, Qingqing is not bad. Moreover, she can be described as pure and beautiful, which is exactly the type she likes, but after all, she already has a wife and a child.

Only then did Zhang Yang realize that he was out of touch with this era. In this era, it is normal for men to have three wives and four concubines, but Zhang Yang always advocates monogamy. This is also the reason why he deliberately avoided He Zhaoyi. He could not feel He Zhaoyi's attachment to him.

Now, his beliefs are being broken little by little. Zu Qing, from the perspective of performance alone, is definitely a good nv son with three obediences and four virtues. Moreover, he will be a virtuous supporter in his career and will support the distant dream of the ocean for him. But can he afford this price? Or is he willing to do it?

"If Lord Zhang is willing to marry Qingqing, I am willing to give all the drawings of the treasure ship he designed to Mr. Zhang. Qingqing, do you think grandpa is really old, deaf, and eyes? Look at the drawings you took, the data inside are all wrong." Zu Xingzhi said.

?Zu Qing picked up the drawings she brought and looked carefully. Sure enough, the data marked inside were all wrong. If the ship was built according to such data, it would probably break from the middle when it was still on the ship platform.

"Grandpa, why are you..." Zu Qing didn't know that her closest grandpa had actually hidden this trick from her.

Zu Xing didn't care. During the day today, she saw Sun NV's thoughts, especially when she secretly stuffed Zhang Shicheng's notes, thinking she couldn't see them? She was really cruel and left after taking the drawings. It would be fine. Qingqing is so big, so it's time to find her a good in-law's house.

Looking at Jiangnan, is there anyone who is more suitable for her than the person in front of her? This person also knows the ingenious skills and has a common topic with Qingqing. Qingqing can also build a ship for him. Moreover, this person may be the emperor in the future. Although Qingqing himself did not notice it, she might already have this Lord Zhang in her heart.

Therefore, we must take this opportunity to give Qingqing a good future. Lord Zhang is a family. If he doesn't do this, he may have to rely on shipbuilding for the rest of his life. That would be too unfair to Qingqing.

We must win this opportunity for Qingqing

Zu Xingzhi was active in his heart, but his face was not silly, and he said, "What? Lord Zhang wouldn't agree?"

"Brother, agree." Bian Yuanheng advised next to him: "Sister-in-law will understand. As a man, if he only has one wife, I'm afraid his sister-in-law will be taking concubines for his elder brother. Qingqing is not bad now, why are you hesitating?"

If he didn't take a concubine, Ruohan would still help him take a concubine? Zhang Yang thought, indeed, Xianshu of this era was also reflected in this.

"Okay, I promise Mr. Zu this condition, but I also have a condition." Zhang Yang said.

"Let me tell me." Zu Xingzhi heard Zhang Yang agree to his request. This man said nothing, and since he agreed, he would not regret it.

"I can agree to marry Qingqing as my wife, but, not now, I need to explain to my mother and wife. It will take some time to deepen our understanding with Qingqing, and we still have many major things to do..." Zhang Yang said, seeing Zu Xingzhi did not respond, and then said, "So, it will take some time..."

"Okay." Zu Xingzhi was very straightforward: "The day when the treasure ship was launched is the time for your wedding."

Zhang Yang felt relieved. Building a ship is not building a house. It is absolutely impossible to do it in less than two or three years. It takes some time to integrate with the steam engine. With this time, it will be enough to deepen the understanding of each other. At that time, there may be a turning point?

Zhang Yang firmly resisted arranged marriages from the bottom of his heart. If the two have no feelings, even if they are together, they will not be happy.

"Mr. Zu is such an enlightened senior," said Zhang Yangxi: "I completely agree."

Zu Qing next to her was already blushing with shame. She was married to her grandfather so soon? She looked at Zhang Yang again and felt a little shy. Although she had to get married later, from now on, she felt that she was already Lord Zhang’s member.

"Qingqing, all the drawings are here, you can take them yourself." Zu Xingzhi said, and the butler behind him panted and brought a large basket of drawings.

The other guards who were ignorant of their big words were about to explode when they saw so many drawings.

Zhang Yang knew that this time it must be true. How could there be only a few drawings for building a large ship? When the Soviet Union aided China, the drawings were all discussed in terms of car washes. A large treasure ship had several decks, the layout of each deck and the articulation of those carpenters had to be designed in advance, and the workload was quite huge.

These drawings can almost be said to be Zu Xingzhi's lifelong wealth.

"Thank you, Mr. Zu." Zhang Yang said with a heart.

"Forget it," Zu Xingzhi said: "I am an idle cloud and wild crane, and I can't stand the constraints of so many rules and regulations. Otherwise, I really want to help Lord Zhang. If there is something wrong with the drawings, Qingqing can be used to show her to me at any time. I have always lived here."

"Mr. Zu, whether I want to send troops to protect this place is very important."

"Forget it, I've been like this all my life. When I'm old, I don't want to live everywhere. As long as I can live until the day when I get married, I'll be satisfied." Zu Xingzhi said.

"Qingqing, Grandpa hopes that the treasure ship can be launched. At that time, Grandpa will visit." Zu Xingzhi and Zu Qing said.

"Grandpa, don't worry, Qingqing will definitely not let you down." Zu Qingqing said.

The grandparents and grandchildren nagged for a few more words and finally parted.

Zhang Yang took Zu Qing and the baby's big basket of drawings, and returned to the government office.

Zu Qing has already entered the working state and has begun to study the drawings. Sure enough, many subtle points are different.

"Miss Zu, this is not a matter of one day or two. You must pay attention to your health." Zhang Yang said.

"Thank you, Lord Zhang. If you don't dislike me in the future, then just call me Qingqing." Zu Qing said.

"Yes, Qingqing, then you can rest early. You can move in the government office these days, and after the shipyard starts construction, you can move over." Zhang Yang said, and then walked out.

Although we have already had an appointment to celebrate our old age, we have not had a big wedding after all. Although Zhang Yang has a wife, he has not been intimate for a long time. He has been with Zu Qing for too long and it is late at night. I am afraid it will be inappropriate. If he doesn't control himself, wouldn't it be criticized?

Zu Qing looked at Zhang Yang's back and knew that his grandfather's eyes were right. This adult was not like other officials. Once he married his wife, he would rather get married soon. He was a gentleman and a person who did big things.

"Mr. Zhang." Zu Qing said: "There is one thing that I want to remind Mr. Zhang that since he has begun to decide to build a ship, the reserve of wood must be carried out in advance, and the wood must be dried and anti-corroded in advance, and it will take one year to use it. Therefore, we must start preparing now and proceed in synchronization with the shipyard's affairs."

"Okay, Qingqing," Zhang Yang knew that the shipbuilding could not be cut down directly and built. It had to go through many steps and be prepared in advance.

Zhang Yang walked to Mén's mouth, turned his head to look at her, and said casually: "Actually, you don't have to call me Lord Zhang, I prefer you to call me Brother Shicheng."

As he said that, Zhang Yang walked out.

Brother Shicheng? This name is both friendly and natural, and Zu Qing's face suddenly turned red.

Zhang Yang looked at the stars in the sky, but he was a little overwhelmed. He agreed to this matter, but why did he explain it to his mother and Ruohan? In a few days, it will be the New Year. Now he has sent someone to take Ruohan and his mother to Hangzhou for the New Year. He suddenly felt like he didn't know how to face them.

Zhang Yang didn't know that if He Zhaoyi got the news and had made another appointment with him, I really don't know how this strong man would react.

Forget it, let him go. Zhang Yang knew that the most important thing now is to build the shipyard as soon as possible.

The establishment of a shipyard is a systematic and complex project. When choosing a site, you need to choose a certain place. A large number of skilled workers must be recruited to provide them with housing, grain, and wages. Large wood must be prepared in advance, especially large treasure ships. The keel needs to be made of high-quality wood for hundreds or even thousands of years. The personnel responsible for the manufacturing of the steam engine in the base need to be transferred to study the power of the steam engine and how to arrange it with Zu Qing. If the coordination is good, the construction should be started first in half a year.
