After a while, I watched large ships sailing from the dry dock into the canal, including both Western Galen sailing ships and standard blessed ships. In the middle and late Ming Dynasty, when the Zheng He fleet's fleet's treasure ship manufacturing skills were lost, blessed ships were the main force of the Ming Navy.

The navy built by Yu Dayou back then was mainly blessed ships, and the combat power of the blessed ships in this era was not bad. The information provided by the court was that the best blessed ship was about fifty meters long, ten meters wide, about six meters draft, and a load of six or seven hundred tons.

Judging from the physique that is not much smaller than the Galen ship, it is simply that the number of Dafu ships under the Ming Dynasty's court was too small.

With sufficient wood, Xu Junxian built 12 large ships in many dry docks during a walk, which was already a fleet.

The shipyard in Beijing was really not large in the past. It was just used to repair and maintain the ships coming and going on the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal. It was also the stimulation brought by Tong Jian and others. After the craze for voyage to the West, the imperial court vigorously expanded the shipyard and sent a large number of young and strong men to clear and widen the canal.

In this regard, not only the court, but also the various nobles and gentry in the capital were taking the initiative to contribute money and efforts to mobilize the people along the river to work.

He snatched five or six million silver goods, and this really stimulated the rich man and the rich mistress who kept the money know the meaning of open source.

Even if you can't go to Qi Jiguang's Beijing camp or enter the Royal Navy of the Ming Dynasty, you won't form a caravan and go out to sea with the fleet? At that time, whether it's grabbing the army and grab the remaining treasures or making transactions with the Ming Dynasty fleet, this is a big deal.

If you want to do that, you must make the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal more convenient and make this important transportation route more prosperous.

Compared with the future opportunities to make a fortune, it is still necessary to take some money to make initial investments. Therefore, the management personnel who were laid off in the past were originally qualified engineers and construction soldiers of the nobles. They used to build houses, but now they were unblocking canals and transporting wood.

The people are also very enthusiastic, and many children from the people have joined the Beijing camp.

Seeing the towering fleet traveling and waiting to try shelling, Tian Yicai couldn't help but sigh, "If it weren't for the loss of information from Eunuch Zheng's treasure ship, the treasure ship that I could own in the Ming Dynasty would definitely be far more than the Western ships like Folangji."

Zhu Yijun also felt regretful, "Since I learned the general situation of the world, I have vigorously searched for information about Eunuch Zheng's treasure ship, but no matter whether I went to the descendants of Liu Daxia to search or read the Yongle ceremony, I didn't find any specific information. It's a pity."

Of course, the Ming Yongle Ceremony records the information on the treasure ship fleet, but this ceremony is also full of disasters and difficulties.

The Yongle Ceremony was written in the sixth year of Yongle. The book was written in more than 20,000 volumes and more than 10,000 volumes were written. It was placed in Wenyuan Pavilion, Nandu. When Chengzu moved the capital to the north, he only brought some of them to the capital.

In the 14th year of Zhengtong, the fire in Wenyuan Pavilion in the Nandu burned a mess. In the 36th year of Jiajing, a fire broke out in Zijing City again. Fortunately, in the 41st year of Jiajing, the man asked Gao Gong, Zhang Juzheng and others to re-record the Yongle Ceremony.

This happened 18 years ago. There are still 8,000 volumes of the Yongle Ceremony included in the Bauhinia City, but compared with the Yongle era, there are still a few thousand fewer books and materials.

The information of the real treasure ship described in Zheng He's treasure ship, which is 44 feet long, is a lost information.

With the words of the two, Xu Junxian laughed, "Although I can't build it at will without detailed information, your Majesty will be willing to encourage all the ship craftsmen from the Ming Dynasty to innovate various technologies, innovate on the existing lucky ships, and create bigger and better ships."

"More than a hundred years ago, Chengzu could build such a big ship. There is no reason why you descendants could not do it. It was nothing more than that before, the Ming Dynasty oppressed craftsmen too seriously."

Speaking of this, he also took a fun look at Zhang Juzheng, Zhang Siwei and others. The scholars, peasants, industry and commerce were gathered in layers. The most miserable thing in the Ming Dynasty was definitely not the merchants, but workers and peasants.

Under his gaze, Zhang Juzheng bowed decisively and seriously, "The Immortal Lord, my literati and official class in the Ming Dynasty was a little narrow-minded, but since the arrival of Tong Xianjun and others, various ideological storms have already swept across all classes inside and outside the Ming Dynasty."

"Before Xu Xianjun came, my Ming Dynasty craftsman treatment and living environment were greatly improved. The cabinet also issued policies to encourage private craftsmen to invent and innovate in various ways. As long as they have real effects, the Ming Dynasty court will not hesitate to reward them."

"Today, when I saw immortals like Xu Xianjun, they were all so proficient in kitchen and craftsmen's skills, we naturally would not dare to look down on craftsmen."

The literati and officials of the Ming Dynasty looked down on craftsmen and various constraints and suppression were a tradition of hundreds of years. However, the Western craze began to begin, and this matter really changed quietly. Even before Tong Jian and others came, in the early years of Wanli, the living standards of various craftsmen with craftsmen were also greatly improved.

After all, this is an era when capitalism is emerging and developing. People with real skills and skills are still very popular and are hired by various small capital germinations with high salaries.

Zhu Yijun was also happy, "The Immortal Lord said it well. Even if there is no Yongle Ceremony and the previous treasure ship information, I would not believe in our descendants, but instead, they would not be as glorious as our ancestors."

"Mr. Yuanfu Zhang, I think I can take a step bigger. If anyone can make the treasure ship of Eunuch Zheng a hundred years ago, the court can reward the titles, and the hereditary counts. If there are many people who create such treasure ships, then separate them from each of the royal sons and the Jinyiwei thousand households."

Since the arrival of immortals, I look down on craftsmen and other things, this is the most wrong concept. Haven’t I seen that Xu Junxian make food and various swords and objects by himself? If you still stick to the previous view, are you afraid of being struck by the Immortal Lord with a lightning light? You will be devilish for thousands of years!

Even as everyone was joking, the 12 large ships that entered the canal gradually moored on the shore. The people and cargo in this area of ​​the canal were also cleared by the people arranged by the court.

After clearing the site, we arranged artillery vehicles to bomb the ship.

Boom boom boom boom ~

Under the close range of less than 100 meters, countless people witnessed it with their own eyes that the bronze cannon shells fell on the large ship. Whether it was hitting the wooden boards of the hull or the sails, these shells did not hurt a single point of the large fleet.

Not to mention tearing the wooden boards or sails of the hull, wait for the cannon to jump a few times and finally stop on the deck or fall into the river. Where the cannon is caught, even traces of black marks and other traces do not exist.

Such an exaggerated effect made everyone stunned. Yu Zigao, the navy general, said even more ecstatically, "If such a fairy ship fights the enemy's artillery, you only need to hide the soldiers, and you can get closer and even fire the enemy's ship's forehead!"
