V1.Chapter 139

In the cave, sketches of seagoing ships are placed on the long wooden table.

Zhen Jin, Zi Di, Cang Xu, Zongge and others sat around, and everyone's eyes focused on the sketch.

The sketch depicts the side view, top view, perspective view, etc. of the ship.

The fourth boatman, the author of the sketch, said, "according to statistics, there are 247 survivors in total. The pig kiss has been demolished by us. Taking into account the timber we transported, and estimating how much iron our iron ore can produce, I conceived this ship."

"The new captain is expected to be 42 meters, 16 meters wide, 8 meters high, and the displacement is 300 tons."

"As you can see, the new ship will have two decks, with five guns on the top."

"There are three masts in total, and each mast has a mast tower."

"This is a slash."

"Both the mast and the head slash have sails, mainly square sails. According to our chart and route, the wind direction is stable, and square sails are the most practical. But the rear mast is a triangular sail. To be more precise, it is a large triangular sail."

"It is estimated that our main sail surface will exceed 200 square meters."

"This is the forecastle building, mainly for big people. This is the forecastle building, with your room for Lord Zhijin. There is a gallery behind the forecastle building, with a wide view, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery on the sea."

At last, the boatman's fourth pair of needle gold showed a flattering smile.

The new ship is twice as small as the kiss of the pig. With a length of 76 meters, the pig kiss is a large trading ship, which can transport a large number of goods and personnel over a long distance.

According to the voyage, this island is located near the midpoint of the straight line between Shengming continent and wilderness continent.

The purpose of Zhijin and others is not to build a ship with excellent performance, but to leave the island as soon as possible and complete the next half of the voyage, so as to rush to the wild continent.

"How many gaps are there in materials?" Zhen Jin broke the silence and asked.

The boatman replied, "it's mainly nails. We need a lot of iron, and there is the biggest gap in this regard."

"Don't we have enough ore?" Zhen Jin was puzzled. He was afraid of this at that time. He turned into a monkey tailed brown bear for many nights and kept mining. Now most of the ores in their hands are mined by needle gold alone.

Zidi replied, "we want to thank those monkey tailed brown bears. The ore is sufficient. But to extract iron from the ore, we currently use the method of medicament ablation. The medicament in this aspect is far from enough."

"So it is." Pin Jin nodded and glanced at the crowd. "What can you do about this problem?"

Zi Di showed her embarrassment: "at present, I am actively looking for alternative materials around, but I am not sure whether I will find them. After all, this is a rainforest, not a forest. Maybe we can organize an exploration team to collect these raw materials in the forest landform."

Cang Xu shook his head, "it's too difficult and risky. Lord Zhijin needs to guard the valley, and our combat power is not enough to support an exploration team. Processing ore with medicine is not a conventional method in itself. My suggestion is to make an earth kiln. It's not a small earth kiln I made in the oasis, but a large earth kiln. We can use charcoal fire to heat, melt the ore and get a large amount of pig iron."

"Can large-scale earth kilns be built here?" Zhen Jin asked.

He remembered that in the oasis, cangxu's attempt to make an earth kiln failed.

But Cang Xu nodded, "this is OK. The soil here is different from that in the oasis. In fact, someone has made it. He is a craftsman and has much more experience in making Earth kilns than I do."

The proportion of craftsmen among survivors is high. These people go to work in the wild continent.

In order to gain a foothold on the wild continent and win the war of aggression, the Terrans need to build a large number of castles, barracks and other defensive fortifications.

These fortifications represent a large number of job opportunities, far beyond the standard salary of Shengming mainland.

Needle gold nodded: "just according to Cang Xu's suggestion, we will build an earth kiln."

After making a decision, Zhen Jin looked at the boatman again.

"There are other gaps." Boatman's access road.

One of the remaining gaps is the sail. The fabrication of sails requires a lot of cloth. Originally, the boatman hoped for the sails on the pig kiss. But after dismantling, only a few pieces of sail were obtained. Because before that, the temperature fell, the survivors of the first camp dismantled and tore off the sails as warm clothes.

The other is adhesive. The ship plate adopts the butt joint technology, and there is a gap. Normally, asphalt, hemp rope and glue are used for filling. There is also a big gap in adhesives.

The third is the crew. Zhijin and others need to train some temporary sailors.

Finally, materials.

The reserves of food and water are large, but not enough.

Building ships requires a lot of physical energy, which will lead to increased food consumption.

After the ship is built, enough materials need to be stored. During the voyage, it is difficult to get supplies.

Some people may say that you can fish and fish on the sea.

This is very layman.

Fishing operations are usually carried out in fishing grounds, and the efficiency of fishing in other sea areas is very low.

The work on the ship is very heavy. If people go fishing and fishing, the efficiency is very low. Let alone, the speed of navigation will slow down. As time goes on, food consumption will be more, which is not worth the loss.

In this perspective, the sea and desert are not much different.

"How long will it take to build this new ship?" Zhen Jin asked the most concerned question.

The boatman replied, "normally, the construction of ships is usually about two years. It is difficult to estimate the construction period of our new ship, but it should take at least half a year."

"It's too long. Can you shorten it?" Black volume is not satisfied with this time.

The boatman sighed, "this is the fastest speed. It's mainly because Lord Zidi's medicine can accelerate the drying of wood in the shade. Generally speaking, the wood of shipbuilding needs to be dried to completely eliminate moisture. Generally, it will dry in the shade for more than a year."

"Fortunately, we have many craftsmen."

"It's not the twohundred people in this valley. Relying on our previous personnel alone, even if it takes fourorfive years, it may not be possible to build a sailing ship."

Zhijin was very disappointed with this answer. After more than half a year, I'm afraid the position of Baisha city master has been decided.

Imperial officials cannot wait for the injection of gold alone. The two Templars who competed with him for the position of city Lord will never wait for the needle gold.

But there is no way.

Unless rescue comes during this period, if Zhijin relies on building a new ship to escape, it can only accept this time.

The ship was built in the valley.

With a little renovation, the open space in the small valley is a good place for shipbuilding.

It's too much trouble to make a dock.

Of course, the material selection of the dock does not need to be as high as that of shipbuilding, and the rainforest will never lack wood.

Heijuan, Sandao and others set up a logging team and patrol team.

Wood is continuously imported into the small valley.

Their felling sites are mainly concentrated in small valleys and beaches. Clearing the trees here is also convenient for the manufacture of tracks in the future, which is conducive to the smooth launching of new ships.

The amount of work involved in making tracks is much smaller than building docks directly on the beach.

After several days, the open space in the small valley was finally isolated from the rain. It was a rainstorm, and the ground remained dry.

The construction of ships requires a dry environment.

The boatman and others began to work on the largest trunk, which is the best material for making keels. According to the words of the boatman and the carpenter, it is difficult to find such good materials even in the major ports of Shengming continent!

Under the overall control of Cang Xu, the survivors in the valley are busy, and everyone has a responsibility.

Cyanobacteria and Baiya are responsible for building and transforming valleys, forming defensive fortifications, and laying traps and warning devices on the periphery.

Fat tongue assists cangxu, and Zidi is responsible for the research and development of medicine.

Zhijin, Zongge and others mainly cleared the surrounding herds to supplement food reserves.

The sparrow fan led the women and the wounded to make hemp rope and cloth.

When the keel was made, the boatman and others began to make the mast nonstop. Due to the lack of suitable wood, at least six masts should be made and spliced together to form the front mast, middle mast and rear mast.

At the same time, fat tongue led some people to apply the medicine on the keel. With the medicine, the keel will dry in the shade more quickly.

The dosage of keel alone almost emptied Zidi's inventory.

Zidi can only split the manufacturing steps of the potion and distribute it to others to make it separately to improve the output.

This requires new people.

Fortunately, cangxu has rich experience, and soon transferred enough personnel from other aspects, and avoided slowing down the progress of other projects to a minimum.

With ultrasonic detection, needle gold did not miss any herds near the valley.

Every time he takes action, he gains a lot.

Zong Ge no longer competes with Zhijin, which is second only to Zhijin in this regard.

When the boatman, carpenter and others began to manufacture the ship board, with the valley as the center, the area within 50000 meters was cleared.

But the work of clearing the herd will continue.

Because herds are mobile, free territory and rich food sources are great temptations to herds.

The clearance of herds is no longer as frequent as before, and the risk is also sharply reduced.

Those who are attracted are usually weak competitive herds or Warcraft. Powerful Warcraft or herds are the overlord of their own territory and do not need to migrate.

Zhen Jin gradually transferred the job to Zongge, heijuan and others.

The extra time he gained was used to practice various forms of the heart core in private, and he made a lot of progress.

The frequency of torrential rain is getting lower and lower, and sunny days begin to exceed rainy days in a week.

In the evening, it cleared up.

The setting sun reflected on needle gold and a group of scale horn Panthers.

When Zhen Jin was secretly training at the edge of the warning line, the group of scale horn Panthers broke into the scope of his ultrasonic exploration.

The magic power reserve sent to the door was happily accepted by the needle gold.

After a fight, the battlefield calmed down.

"It's too easy... As long as I touch the scale horn panther, they will be electrocuted directly by me." Zhen Jin showed a satisfied smile.

Long term persistence and hard training have yielded results.

He is now able to discharge freely!

"I'm different from the silver flying mouse. The latter will immediately fade when discharged, but my discharge will aggravate the consumption of magic power, which has little effect on me."

"Who?" Using ultrasound again, Zhen Jin suddenly found someone in the distance.

The golden complexion of the needle suddenly changed.

When he just fought, he stopped the ultrasonic wave, and his main attention was used to discharge, so he didn't notice it in time.

What did this person observe?

When did you come here? What else did you find?

The scorpion shell on needle gold can easily be linked with what you saw at the beginning.

Who is this person?

Zhen Jin ran frantically and chased this man.

The mysterious man noticed it, turned around and ran away to the valley!
