Qi Meng Xuanji - Chapter 207
With Lan Xi’s call, Ji Jianshen and the woman’s eyes focused on Xuanji.
The woman hesitated for a while and said, “Knock to the Queen Empress!” She said she would kneel down and worship.
“No need!” Xuan Ji stopped.
The woman stopped, glanced at Ji Shen Shen secretly, saw him smile and nodded, and then straightened up. Although she didn’t say a word, she seemed to be aggrieved by me.
Lan Xi and Lan Qing secretly cried out that it was a pity, so that the wild woman who dared to fight the emperor’s idea in broad daylight should kill her with prestige! Xuanji, the queen is too soft-hearted!
In fact, Xuanji is not soft-hearted, but she is really not used to being gifted by others for no reason. To win momentum, there is no need to humiliate people by identity.
Ji Jianshen’s smile on the corners of her lips did not change a little, but she did not directly greet him with affection and yelled “Xuanji” as usual, but looking at the two women in this way, there are actually four undercurrents. Expressionless, but obviously rejecting the woman next to him.
People who have been in contact with Xuanji more, one by one will be biased towards her.
“Yinglan Xuanji is recognized, so there is no need to be polite.” Ji Jianshen smiled.
“I recognize?” Xuanji looked puzzled, and then looked at that “Yulan”, when did it happen.
Now it was Ji Jianshen’s turn to look helpless, and “Yulan” looked embarrassed.
“Yulan is the daughter of her aunt, haven’t you seen the Mid-Autumn Festival family dinner the year before last?” Ji Jianshen had to say straight.
“Oh” Xuanji finally remembered, it turned out to be the “cousin” who sang very well.
Can’t blame her for not being impressed. The Mid-Autumn Festival feast the year before last, the big devil had a house with his concubines, beautiful women like clouds, where did she remember so many? Moreover, I don’t want to remember!
Zhao’s aunt and Xuanji had a bad relationship, and this Miss Yinglan did not have a good impression, and the scene immediately cooled down.
Ji Jianshen had no idea about Ying Lan, but secretly hoped that Xuan Ji would try to be jealous, so he didn’t say much.
When Xuanji looked down and saw that she was still holding an empty fruit plate in her hand, she remembered what was going on: “My palace remembered that there are some important things to discuss with the emperor. I don’t know the emperor is at this moment.” Yinglan.
“Since the emperor and the queen have important matters, Yinglan will retire first!” She whispered softly so as not to arouse pity.
It’s a pity that the two protagonists in the conversation have no pity for her. Ji Jianshen saw Xuanji’s official appearance and knew that she was already a little angry. Although the little turtle is rarely angry, it is not very good to be really angry. Yes, she waved her hand to make Yinglan retreat.
Yinglan bowed to salute, turned and left, just turned her face, the grievance and weakness in her eyes had been replaced by resentment and jealousy.
Xuanji instructed Lan Qing and Lan Xi to go back to rest first, and follow Ji Jianshen back to the Imperial Study Room.
“I heard that the navy has applied for shipbuilding money again, and the amount is quite large.” Xuanji didn’t mention what was just now, and she started straight to the subject. She has always been more real, knowing that Ji Jianshen can’t have anything to cousin Ying Lan, then come back and calculate that he deliberately wants to stimulate her account, now first get the official business done, wait until the evening hum!
With her attitude, Ji Jianshen’s prepared tricks could not be used, so he nodded and said: “Yes, considering that the two sides are fighting, the ships are seriously damaged, and there are many hidden reefs in some waters. One carelessness can easily hit the reef. Sinking, the Longjiang line of defense is very important to the battle between Jiyue and Jiyue, so more preparations must be made. If this line of defense is easily broken, the risk behind will be much greater.”
auzw.com”Are there shipbuilding craftsmen or skilled stewards in the capital? I have an idea. If it succeeds, the cost of the ship will be slightly higher, but even if it collides with the enemy on the river, it will be damaged. Or it’s not easy to sink when it hits a rock, and you can even continue to fight. It should be able to save a lot of money by driving back to the shore after the war to repair it and use it again.”
Ji Jianshen’s eyes lit up, and he walked forward to hold Xuanji and smiled: “I know that my Xuanji knows everything, it’s a good baby from heaven.”
“Nothing!” Xuanji pushed him away, making a grimace and said: “Hurry up and ask someone to come, I don’t know if it will work!”
The capital is close to the Lanjiang River, and water transportation is one of the important means of transportation. There are a lot of daily boats, including luxury ships of high-ranking officials and wealthy families, merchant ships and passenger ships that transport cargo and passengers. There is a large workshop near the dock on the Lanjiang River, which specializes in repairing and manufacturing ships for people. Shen’s workshop is the largest among them.
With an order from the palace, the relevant persons waited for a while and rushed to the palace to wait for orders. Here are Mr. Mi, the chief steward of the Shen’s ship workshop, the most qualified craftsman, Master Tu, and the navy general Ding who has just arrived in Beijing.
Xuanji had roughly told Ji Jianshen his thoughts before they came. At this moment, he sat obediently behind the screen to explain, Hong Wang put the fruit plate in the basin for demonstration.
“The idea of this palace is very simple. The bottom of the cabin is made like the fruit plate you see, divided into grids that can be isolated from each other. When the bottom of the boat hits a rock or is destroyed by other impacts, just seal the damaged one. Live, the hull will not sink.”
After Xuanji finished, Hong Wang took the water cup and filled the side of the fruit tray with water. The wooden fruit tray was still floating steadily on the water.
The three were surprised and then ecstatic.
Mr. Mi thinks that in the future, merchant ships will be easier to voyage. Separate compartments are used to store the goods of different merchants and better manage. There will be losses and the entire ship will not be harmed. In this way, the shipping business will definitely take off.
Master Tu discovered the world of shipbuilding. The Tu family has been shipbuilding craftsmen for generations, but never thought of such a method of production. He was both excited and ashamed. He picked up the fruit plate in the basin, and his hands trembled.
And General Ding thought that in the future the navy would have this kind of warship that could not sink easily, and the battle on Longjiang would be a little more sure!
Everyone smiled and admired in unison. Xuanji’s method is simple, but it is something that no one has ever thought of. In fact, it is a watertight compartment. This design has existed in the Tang Dynasty of China, and it has been popular once it has been promoted.
“In addition to preventing sinking, this partitioned design can make the entire hull more stable and not easily damaged.” Xuanji thought about it and added another sentence. That’s all she knows, and the rest of the details depend on the craftsman’s implementation.
General Ding said: “The Queen Empress is indeed a wizard of the sky. With such a warship, the damage to the navy ships can be reduced by at least half. I don’t know how many soldiers were rescued because of this.”
Xuanji was numbed by the phrase “Wizard of Heaven”, but fortunately, General Ding did not continue to say any more nasty words.
She also heard Wen Juncong say that the ship was damaged and sunk too much today, and then she saw the fruit plate. She remembered that she had been to the cabin of the Shen’s ship. There seemed to be no such watertight compartment in it, so she ran back to ask Ji Jianshen for verification. . Unexpectedly, there is really no such thing in this era.
General Dante said about the life safety of soldiers, but she kept her heart: “During the war, if the ship is seriously damaged and sinks, can the ship be equipped with a sufficient number of escape equipment??”
A word stunned several people at the scene.
“Isn’t there?” Xuanji was shocked. Isn’t lifeboat lifejacket and other escape equipment necessary on board? Although there is no life jacket for inflatable boats, there should be other alternatives.
In the preparation stage, but Yue Ni can’t wait, hehe.
The backyard of the Great Devil is also on fire, poor.
It will be updated tomorrow. If you have tickets, remember to hand it to me.
Ah oh dear friends, something is late today, this is for the 12th.
