Then kill it!

"Maritime trade is risky, so you need to be cautious when entering the industry. Young people, you have to suffer some losses before you understand that you should listen to the advice of the elderly!"

The middle-aged man nodded.

Forces like the Jingguo Mansion are the most troublesome for them. If they become arrogant, they will destroy the entire industry ecosystem.

After the pleasantries.

The shipyard supervisor led Zhao Wuxian and the others to the dock, where they saw a pointed-bottomed boat that had not yet hoisted its sails.

This pointed-bottom boat is also called a Fu ship.

It uses watertight compartments and has a sturdy structure.

It has the advantages of large capacity, good loading ability, good stability, strong wind resistance, deep draft and good at ocean-going.

Such excellent performance makes Fuchuan a typical ship type for ocean trade.

The Fu ship in front of us can accommodate a hundred people.

It has a pointed bottom and a wide top, with a raised bow and a high stern. It has three quayside towers and two masts, protected by boards on both sides, and a wooden parapet and gun beds on top.

Zhao Wuxian walked around the boat and looked at it for a while.

"Your Highness, what do you think?"

The shipyard supervisor was very friendly and enthusiastic.

This is a potential big money sponsor.

Rumor has it that the Jingguo Mansion's Treasure Pavilion alone had a daily income of over 10 million taels on the first day of its opening.

What concept?

It is equivalent to one-fifth of the Song Dynasty’s treasury revenue last year.

Enemy rich!

In short, everyone in Jiangnan knows that the Jingguo Mansion is rich, with a lot of money.

Now, if the Duke Jingguo's Mansion wants to take a ship to go ocean-going, it will definitely not be a small-scale order, it is a large order that can be seen with the naked eye!

How could a shipyard manager not be enthusiastic?

It is actually not very profitable for the official shipyard to build official ships. There are strict regulations and there is a line between the price of different ships and the price of different ships.

Private boats are different.

There is always a way to add some special fees to raise the price.

But even so, real big sea merchants would still choose to build ships in government shipyards.

Firstly, the quality of official shipyards is guaranteed.

Secondly, you won’t encounter any difficulties from the Maritime Customs.

Even though there are only two or three hundred people actually working in this shipyard, the staffing plan is for four or five hundred people.

Where are the extra people?

The Maritime Customs and government officials, who doesn’t have relatives and friends?

Zhao Wuxian smiled and said to Xie Ning, "Mr. Xie, what do you think?"

"what?"

Xie Ning, who had been bending over to accompany him, was surprised.

He didn't know what Zhao Wuxian meant by this. He looked at the boat, pondered it in his mind, and said hesitantly: "It's, it's okay!"

Zhao Wuxian smiled and said, "Since Mr. Xie gave the boat to me, then I can decide its fate, right?"

The shipyard manager smiled and said, "Of course, Your Highness is the owner of the ship. Even if you want to burn it now, who would object?"

Xie Ning also nodded and said, "Your Highness, please handle it!"

Zhao Wuxian patted the boat and said, "As the saying goes, a gentleman does not take away what others like. Then, I will return this boat to Mr. Xie!"

"what?"

Xie Ning exclaimed.

The shipyard manager was also stunned.

Zhao Shirong was surprised.

Mu Wanqing took a curious look but was not surprised.

Anyway, what my husband does is always unexpected.

The shipyard manager's forehead was covered with sweat. Could it be that His Highness was not satisfied with this ship?

Xie 0.2 Ning was somewhat panic-stricken. Could it be that because of his poor hospitality, His Highness was angry and no longer wanted to protect the Xie family?

Zhao WuXian saw through their thoughts and said, “Although the ship belongs to Mr. Xie, it will still join the fleet of the Duke of Jingguo’s Mansion.”

Zhao Shirong raised her eyebrows slightly, suddenly realizing what was going on.

If Zhao Wuxian accepted this free boat, he would inevitably be criticized for bullying others, which would affect his reputation.

Although the ship has been returned to Xie Ning now, it can still be the ship of the Duke Jingguo Mansion and serve the Duke Jingguo Mansion.

Zhao Shirong even thought that if this matter were to spread, it would definitely attract ship owners with sea vessels to come and cooperate.

In this way, the fleet of Duke Jingguo's Mansion can be completed quickly.

Take this ship and give it to the Duke Jingguo's Mansion to establish credibility and reputation?

high!

It’s really high!

Zhao Shirong looked at Zhao Wuxian with admiration in her eyes, and said helpfully: "Thank you, Mr. Xie, this is a gift from His Highness, you should accept it!"

Xie Ning was confused, but even Zhao Shirong asked him to accept it, so he felt that there must be something mysterious about it.

It seems that His Highness has some big plans.

These big shots always have deep meanings behind what they do, and small people like me just have to obey them.

Xie Ning exhaled and said, "Thank you, Your Highness. I will take this boat."

[Ding! You gave Xie Ning an ordinary Fu ship! ]

[You trigger a 10,000-fold critical hit return! ]

[You get a magic ship: the cursed black pearl! ]

Chapter 214: Shocking news, a big gift from the system! The Shipyard Project and the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan!

Qiantang Shipyard!

In the dock.

Zhao Wuxian returned the boat to Xie Ning.

When I heard the system prompt sound, I felt relaxed all over.

Was there really a critical hit?

Still ten thousand times!

Zhao Wuxian was surprised.

His attempt actually succeeded!

Magic ship?

The Cursed Black Pearl?

Could it be that ship?

Zhao Wuxian took a look at the system's instructions.

[The Cursed Black Pearl: After being burned and sunk, the magic ship was resurrected from the dead world and has a ship spirit! ]

[Data: 60 meters long, 48.5 meters high, 11.9 meters wide, displacement 1000 tons, equipped with 36 16-pound cannons! ]

[Abilities: Self-healing, Mist Escape, Night Hiding, when sailing, always with the wind. ]

[Note 1: The ship's structure is well designed, and its streamlined hull and huge power make it extremely fast and powerful. ]

[Note 2: The system comes with the design data and drawings of the same series of galleons! ]

[Note 3: The system comes with a user manual! ]

[Note 4: The system comes with 1000 rounds of shells! ]

"Hiss, I'll go!"

Zhao Wuxian was shocked when he saw the data of the Black Pearl.

This is even bigger than the current sea vessels of the Song Dynasty!

The key is that this is a battleship.

It's not a flat-bottomed boat used for transportation.

The Black Pearl's capabilities are worthy of its name as a "magic ship". It actually possesses a ship spirit and can heal itself, making it a truly heavenly wonder.

The magic sword has spirits, the magic ship has spirits, is that strange?

It makes sense!

There are also legends of "divine ships" and "ghost ships" in the Kyushu and hundreds of countries.

The closest one.

In the waters between the Ming Dynasty, the Song Dynasty, Japan, the Mongols and other countries, there is a [Five-Colored Sailboat] that is full of legends.

Its master, Marquis Ziyi, possesses godly swordsmanship and the bearing of a duke.

In addition, during the Qin Dynasty, it is said that the Mohists and the Yin-Yangists joined forces to build a flying mechanical ship called the Mirage.

So, is it strange that a ship called the Black Pearl came from the Song Dynasty?
