Within Longjiang Shipyard.
Zhu Yuanzhang's face was full of anger, and he looked at Li Jin with gritted teeth, as if he was going to kill Li Jin in the next second.
Zhu Biao and Lan Yu were trembling with fear and did not dare to speak.
Li Jin stood aside in despair, looking at the Yangtze River in the distance, feeling that the Ming Dynasty would completely lose the ocean from now on.
Because Daming's hope of stepping into the ocean was at his feet, and now this hope was destroyed.
Just when Zhu Yuanzhang was about to express his anger, an old voice suddenly sounded in the shipyard:
"Who said that Ming Dynasty's Longjiang Shipyard has no hope?"
"As long as I am here, the shipyard will be there!!"
When Li Jin and others heard this, they suddenly turned their heads and looked in the direction of the sound.
I saw a rickety old man in ragged clothes, hobbling towards this side, leaning on a cane.
Upon seeing this, Li Jin hurriedly stepped forward to support the old man and asked excitedly:
"I wonder what you call the old man?"
"Wang Dahai."
Li Jin looked at Wang Dahai's aging face and kept wondering in his heart, could it be that this person was responsible for the transformation of Longjiang Shipyard.
"I just heard my father-in-law say that as long as you are here at Longjiang Shipyard, this shipyard will always be there. I don't know what that means?"
Upon hearing this, the old man's rickety body suddenly straightened up and said:
"What do you mean? As long as I am still here, even if the shipyard goes bankrupt, I can build another one."
Listening to this sonorous and powerful voice, even Zhu Biao and Lan Yu next to them were a little moved.
Li Jin was overjoyed when he heard this. It seems that God will not stop me.
Zheng He was able to sail to the Western Seas in the first place, probably because of the help of this person, so that he could successfully build a treasure ship and sail to the Western Seas seven times.
Thinking of this, Li Jin asked Wang Dahai excitedly:
"I wonder how the old man plans to rebuild Longjiang Shipyard?"
Wang Dahai released his crutch with his right hand, reached into his arms, and took out a crumpled piece of paper.
The paper looked old and had begun to turn yellow. Li Jin was afraid that if he was not careful, the paper would be blown to pieces by the wind.
But Wang Dahai felt like he had found a treasure. He slowly unfolded the drawings in his hand and said to Li Jin:
"This is the original construction drawing of Longjiang Shipyard. As long as the construction is carried out according to this drawing, the grand scene of Longjiang Shipyard can definitely be recreated."
Li Jin and others hurriedly came forward to check. Seeing the layout of various facilities above and the construction of several large water tanks, Li Jin was basically sure that this drawing was genuine.
I was ecstatic in my heart, but I didn't expect that there would be no way out of the mountains and rivers, and there would be another village with dark flowers and bright flowers.
Li Jin immediately said loudly to the old man:
"I want to rebuild the Longjiang Shipyard, and I don't know if the old man can help me."
When Wang Dahai heard this, he burst into tears with excitement and choked with sobs:
"This is my lifelong wish. I never thought I would have the chance to realize it in this life. God has been really kind to me."
Li Jin was slightly moved when he saw the old man's appearance. It was precisely because of the existence of these people that Zheng He's seven voyages to the West were possible.
Only then will there be the Ming Navy, a legend that shocks the world.
Zhu Yuanzhang was surprised to see that the old man actually had such things as shipyard drawings.
Jinyiwei clearly reported that the old man had no talent, but unexpectedly he hid it deeply.
But no matter what, since the shipyard has been sold to Li Jin. Then he only needs to collect money, and he doesn't care about anything else.
"Ahem!"
Zhu Yuanzhang coughed twice, interrupting the conversation between Li Jin and Li Jin, and then said to Li Jin:
"Li Jin, since you have found a way to rebuild the shipyard, please give us the money quickly."
"Let's go on a business trip for the current emperor."
Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang was still asking for money, Li Jin couldn't help but feel a headache and said:
"I can give you the silver, but there is one thing. I need shipwrights, carpenters and stonemasons."
"When I need these, I hope the emperor can support me."
"In addition, I want all the craftsmen from the original Longjiang Shipyard, including this old man, to follow me back to Shanghu County."
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded happily. He didn't expect that he could make one million taels of silver without selling anything. This time he really made a lot of money.
Li Jin looked at the old man and said:
"I want to rebuild the Longjiang Shipyard in Shanghu County. When the time comes, I will recall all the craftsmen who have left."
"Are you willing to follow me to Shanghu County?"
Wang Dahai nodded quickly and said:
"Yes, I do."
"It's just that we craftsmen have been assigned to the Ministry of Industry. Although there is no work now, the court does not allow us to leave Yingtian City."
Zhu Yuanzhang was in a good mood at the moment. When he heard this, he waved his hand and said:
"Let's just deal with these. If you want to go to Shanghu County, then go quickly."
"Work hard wherever you go, and don't be sorry for the imperial court's cultivation of you."
Wang Dahai looked at Zhu Yuanzhang dubiously, studied it for a long time, and suddenly said:
"I seem to have seen you somewhere!"
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he was shocked and thought, does this vast sea still know us?
Just when Zhu Yuanzhang was about to explain, Wang Dahai shouted at Zhu Yuanzhang, scaring Zhu Biao and Lan Yu to the point of numbness!
