Gods and ghosts have always been feared by people in this period.
But now there is such a variable. In Xu Yunyan's impression, these gods, ghosts, demons, etc. are just childish.
What's more, as a soldier, how could he believe in these things?
If you want to believe in these things, it is better to believe in the weapons in his hands and the army he trained.
Xu Yunyan was wearing a suit of armor. After he arranged the order for Yu Poseidon Dragon King and others, this group of ordinary people pointed at him.
They don't have the guts to say whether Xu Yunyan is right or wrong in front of him now.
Looking at the skilled craftsmen talking around him, Xu Yunyan took a step forward.
"Now let's not talk about whether this is the case or not. Let's talk about what you are talking about here. Is there anything you want to see at the county government office?"
As Xu Yunyan finished speaking, these skilled craftsmen finally stopped talking here. Instead, they watched Xu Yunyan being cautious here. No one dared to be the first to come forward and tell him what they were talking about.
Seeing this scene, the craftsman who insisted on constructing according to Xu Yunyan's drawings stepped forward.
"This is my lord."
After the craftsman cupped his fists and saluted Xu Yunyan, he said here, "Sir, I saw that your drawings are designed to be similar to some fishing boats nearby. They are all sharp-bottomed boats.
But they believed that pointed-bottomed boats could not sail in the sea, and flat-bottomed boats should be the main ones, so we had a dispute. Because the keel was about to be built, and in order to prevent loss, we came to the general and asked for an opinion. I hope the general will forgive me. "
The craftsman spoke very carefully, and Xu Yunyan nodded when he heard this.
"You are right. There are no rivers and lakes in this sea. The wind and waves are quite strong."
Xu Yunyan said these words, and when he saw the craftsmen next to him looking at him in horror after he mentioned the storm, Xu Yunyan couldn't help but laugh.
"What? Are you still here worrying about the Dragon King in the sea?
Don't worry, this is all fiction, Ben is here now. "
Xu Yunyan said, and in order to enhance his persuasiveness, he directly pulled out the sharp sword in his hand and pointed it at the sky.
"My general, Xu Yunyan, swears here that I will kill any monster or monster that dares to hinder our people, the people of the Tang Dynasty, and our warships of the Tang Navy from traveling around the world.
If Tiandao approves, there is no need to express anything, if Tiandao does not approve. Please bring some storm and thunder warning. "
This was not a sudden whim for Xu Yunyan. But he thought seriously before saying this, and looked around at the clear sky. It was not June, so he would not change at any time.
As Xu Yunyan made such an oath here, Xu Yunyan inserted the sword in his hand into the ground.
There was no movement for a while, and the whole place was in an uproar.
Xu Yunyan clapped his hands indifferently. "Did you see it? Even the demons, ghosts, dragon kings and sea gods in the rivers, lakes and seas can't stop me at the height of my military power in the Tang Dynasty, so what are you worried about?"
As soon as Xu Yunyan finished saying this, the craftsman who had been making ships all his life couldn't help but be stunned here.
"How could this happen? Could it be that the Poseidon Dragon King in the rivers, lakes and seas also bullies the weak and is afraid of the strong? If we want to launch the boat we are on, we must first sacrifice it, and this general gave up as soon as the entire army threatened this thing. The general is mighty!"
After some people thought clearly, they shouted slogans directly here, and as they shouted, Xu Yunyan also led them in shouting slogans.
"The general is mighty!"
"The Tang Dynasty is mighty!"
After a sentence about the might of the general, come another sentence about the might of the Tang army.
Li Chengdao and Li Chengqian next to Xu Yunyan heard this and were excited. This is the confidence that a powerful country should have.
After they cheered here for a while, Xu Yunyan looked at them and continued talking here.
"As for why not build this flat-bottomed boat? One is to reduce wind and waves, and the other is to create a better space to prevent water from entering the boat.
Flat-bottomed boats in rivers, lakes and seas are good, but haven’t you considered them? What if a flat-bottomed boat in a river, lake or sea hits a wave?
But our pointed-bottom boat can cut through the waves and is more suitable for traveling in the sea, so start construction according to the drawings I designed for you. If there is anything unclear, please optimize and improve it according to your ideas. As long as whoever makes it is beautiful, I will not hesitate to reward you. "
After Xu Yunyan finished speaking, the craftsmen present immediately cheered and clapped their hands, and Xu Yunyan couldn't help laughing while looking at them.
"This is what we call the inheritance of craftsmen. As long as they have motivation and goals and use their lagging but bright minds to think, they will definitely be able to study things properly."
After Xu Yunyan explained clearly how the ship was made here, Li Chengdao and Li Chengqian were just about to compliment Xu Yunyan, when several soldiers rushed to them anxiously.
"Your Highnesses, the imperial edict has arrived, and there are many officials accompanying it."
After they said this, Li Chengqian and Li Chengdao looked at each other.
That’s it!
Their grandpa Huang had arranged everything in Chuzhou and sent all the spare officials so they could go home during the Chinese New Year.
But just when they were going to the government office to receive the order, they looked a little embarrassed at the shipyard.
"Master, what should I do with this ship?"
Looking at the boat, Xu Yunyan also had mixed feelings.
"It would be great if I didn't go back. There are still a few months before the Xuanwu Gate changes. This is something that people can't miss, it's quite difficult to choose, and it's a very famous event."
Looking at the two cousins who were as close as brothers under his own guidance, Xu Yunyan sighed.
"How about we leave reliable people here to look after the ship. As long as we leave reliable people, I think the new officials will not act recklessly in the shipyard."
When Xu Yunyan said this, Li Chengqian and Li Chengdao became a little anxious.
"That's good, but who do we leave behind?"
While they were watching and studying who should be left behind, Zhang Yue took a step forward.
"Your Highnesses, how about I stay here? I'll show you here that this ship can definitely be built properly."
When Zhang Yue said this, Xu Yunyan was instantly happy.
"Yes, let the Zhang family girl stay here. What do you think? Your Highness?"
Xu Yunyan said and hugged Li Chengdao, "The Zhang family has a better relationship with you, so this is more appropriate, and it's also an opportunity."
Xu Yunyan said it more straightforwardly, which made Li Chengdao rub his head and laugh awkwardly before nodding.
"Master, what are your plans? Just say it."
"You leave some reliable people here. After you accompany the Zhang family girl to complete the boat, you can let them go to the boat to study how to operate it. You can practice it in advance so that when His Highness comes again, you can take it with you. Your Highness went out to sea to fish."
When Xu Yunyan said this, Li Chengdao was extremely excited.
"Okay, okay, let's do this. There will definitely be no problem for me to return to Beijing with Master this time. Then I'll leave half of the guards here to watch the shipyard."
After Li Chengdao finished speaking, Li Chengqian couldn't help but nodded.
"How about I keep some of them?"
But as soon as he said this, Xu Yunyan waved hurriedly.
Although Li Chengdao nodded in agreement.
"No! There are girls from the Zhang family here. It is always inappropriate for you to leave some of them behind."
When Xu Yunyan said this, Li Chengqian understood instantly.
"Yes, there is a girl from the Zhang family here. It's really inappropriate for me to stay, so I won't keep anyone here. I'll leave everything to you."
Seeing the Zhang family girl nodding seriously here, she ensured that the ship could be made exactly as designed according to the drawings, and would not affect Li Chengqian and Li Chengdao's departure after the trip.
Xu Yunyan deliberately stayed one step behind. After explaining something to the girl from the Zhang family, he told her to keep it a secret and then quickly followed the two of them out.
It's just that Li Chengdao, who was quite tough among the captains just now, walked out of the shipyard and took a few steps before looking back in the direction of the shipyard.
Seeing the person who turned around three times at this step, Xu Yunyan laughed.
"Don't worry, Your Highness, there is absolutely no problem. In half a year, when the ship is ready to go to sea, Your Highness can come and have a look. If it really works, it will be a good excuse to get married. Your Highness will decide." how?"
