Chapter 412: Giant Ship

Tens of thousands of people stayed in Longjiangkou.

Zhu Di stood alone at the pier at the pier, and everyone was silent without a single sound.

The turbulent river rolled with waves rustling, and Zhu Di stood by the river, feeling excited and a little anxious.

In the past few days, he was too depressed, and his troubles made him feel a little breathless. He suddenly realized that he was no longer the person who sang loudly on the wine, nor the person who laughed whenever he wanted to laugh and cried whenever he wanted to. In a sense, he was no longer a ‘man’. He was the emperor, and was ordered by heaven, and had a profound impact on his joy and anger, so he had to restrain his joy and anger.

And now, he urgently needed a little joy to dilute the depression in his heart.

In any case, Hao Fenglou's arrival was indeed a happy event. He didn't care about Hao Fenglou's fleet, nor did he care about anything else. He just thought that this guy who suddenly disappeared suddenly came back was enough to make people celebrate.

But... the person still didn't come...

There is no one at the end of the river.

Everyone was far away from Zhu Di and did not dare to get too close. The people were still kneeling, but some people were brave enough to look up.

The minds of civil and military officials are naturally different, but they are also looking forward to something.

Hu Lu just sneered on his face. He just thought that the Emperor of Ming Dynasty had heard that Hao Fenglou had brought the fleet, so he hoped that he would come to see the "powerful" of the Ming Dynasty fleet. Hu Lu really wanted to see it, or rather, he wanted to see the jokes.

He was from a maritime businessman. A maritime businessman has a much deeper understanding of maritime boats than ordinary people. A maritime boat goes from laying a keel to finally forming. He knows every craft here. So he firmly believes that Hao Fenglou cannot build a large ship. Even if it builds a maritime boat, it will never be comparable to the large food fleet anchored on the shore.

And everything... is so quiet, leaving only the sound of water flowing.

Sudden……

Zhu Di's pupils shrank suddenly, and a black dot appeared at the end of the river.

This black spot is getting bigger and bigger, it is the mast...

That's right, the main mast of the pillar of the sky appeared in front of everyone's eyes, and the sails had naturally been removed. Therefore, the dark mast was extremely eye-catching. This was the mast. Although the hull could not be seen until now, Zhu Di, who had been crazy about the ship, had seen many sketches of the ship in the past six months. At this moment, he could almost use his naked eyes to determine.

Immediately afterwards, you can see that on both sides of the river, countless boatmen were bare-shirting like ants, pulling a rope slowly pulling something forward.

The raging wind blew away their slogans, but slowly, the mast became clearer and clearer.

"What a long mast..." Someone gasped.

For a moment, the scene was a little chaotic. Some of the people who were kneeling on the ground stretched their necks.

The ship building appeared immediately afterwards. The buildings on the deck were like a continuous palace floating out of thin air, which surprised people.

This...what is this...

Everyone was stunned with incredible eyes.

Big...big...big ship...

Everyone understands that this is a big ship, not just a big ship. Just by looking through the leopard, you can see how huge this big ship that has just revealed its half-body is.

Even if you look out from a distance, anyone can feel the strong shock brought by this ship.

This...what is going on?

Chaos arise, and the curious and shocked people begin to become uneasy. Some people unconsciously stretch their necks, unconsciously stretch their bodies, and even stand up and tiptoe.

However, the personal guards who were responsible for the guards were not at all concerned at this moment. When they reacted, they found that these bold and unruly people had no rules at all.

The civil and military officials were still calm. Some were solemn, while others couldn't help but look horrified.

Everyone has a thought.

Where did the ship come from?

This can never be created out of thin air.

Is it made by Haidang? This... If people who don't know much about ships may not be confused about this issue, but the problem is that over the past six months, the court has had a protracted debate on shipbuilding. During the debate, everyone has taken all their efforts and accumulated a lot of knowledge about shipbuilding in order to express their views.

So everyone almost made a conclusion that this ship must not be made by the coastal defense.

Isn’t it said that the ship material needs to be dried for three years. If the ship material that cannot be dehydrated is forced to be in the water, it will be soaked and corroded in no time.

So, where did the shipping materials for Haipong come from?

It’s not that coastal defense is just a small place and there are not many craftsmen. How could it be that such a big ship could be built out of thin air?

Not saying...

One by one, a question floated in their hearts. They were puzzled, they were puzzled, and they almost racked their brains and couldn't explain what they saw and heard in front of them.

When you know that something that is impossible in this world is actually happening in front of your naked eyes, it is really a torment, and many people suffer.

The river water rolls and goes eastward. The rolling waves rush endlessly.

Zhu Di stood on this pier, his pupils constantly contracted.

What he saw was a behemoth, which was moving slowly and getting closer.

It is precisely because every point approaches, everyone is shocked by one point, and the shocked people include Zhu Di.

Boat...the big ship...the big ship I dream of.

This big ship is even larger than what Zhu Di thought in his dream. If this huge ship shadow is called a mountain, then the big food ship anchored on the shore is simply a hill.

It is at least seventy feet long, twice that of the Dashi Ship and more than thirty feet wide. This is just Zhu Di's brief estimate, which is almost twice that of the Dashi Ship.

The masts were completely revealed in front of Zhu Di, with seventeen sails. That's right, there were seventeen. The main mast and the secondary mast were arranged in an orderly manner. Each one was like a towering tree.

This... this is a ship built by Hao Fenglou!

Zhu Di has become accustomed to not showing his emotions, but now his expression is like a child who has seen a trick, not only being surprised but also being surprised.

"It's a big ship, this is the real big ship. Look, look what that is?"

Cheers rang behind Zhu Di, and someone shouted: "It's the Haifanghou... the Haifanghou..."

It is indeed the Marquis of Haifang. This is absolutely true, because at the mast on the large ship, the sails were not removed, and there were large red words on the top of it: " Marquis of Haifang, the commander-in-chief of the Jinyiwei, the commander-in-chief of the imperial guards, and the commander-in-chief of the imperial guards, the commander-in-chief of the imperial guards, the commander-in-chief of the imperial guards, the commander

This is what the sea defense is wrong.

It was indeed Hao Fenglou's ship.

The people seemed to explode and went crazy one by one: "A ship of such a large size was indeed built by the Marquis of Haifang under the order."

"I have indeed heard of the Haifanghou Marquis being ordered to supervise the construction of a large ship. This Haifanghou Marquis is the adopted son of the palace. If he had no ability, how could the emperor today..."

"I thought the ship of Dashi was the best in the world, but..."

One sentence after another, some of them are enough to talk about the palace. In front of the emperor, I dared to do such a rashness. If it were an hour ago, if I had taught the Jinyiwei to listen, I would have asked you to study your body structure in the City God Temple.

But now, no one cares about him, and even Zhu Di doesn't care.

The civil and military officials were shocked. They all looked solemn. They no longer cared about the ship. The ship was actually not important. No matter how big the ship was, it was just a ship. For these officials, it was just a skillful and lewd technique and could not be as elegant as possible. They suddenly realized that what they had to think deeply about was the impact of these ships, and even the entire court was facing a reshuffle. What would they get and lose in this wave? How should they deal with it?

Half an hour later, the big ship finally approached. The huge hull occupied nearly half of the river surface, and followed by ordinary ships twenty or thirty feet long, which were hidden by the light of the big ship and did not appear to be noticeable.

But Hu Lu's face was already pale at this time, and his eyes still showed disbelief. How could such a big ship be... even if the Ming Dynasty could build it...what is wrong, Hu Lu suddenly thought of something, and finally let go of his worries. He was indeed too surprised just now, so he lost his composure. But when he calmed down and immediately found a loophole, the "national envoy" couldn't help but pursed his lips and smiled.

It is impossible for a large ship to enter the trestle, so it can only be parked in the middle of the river, put down the anchor, and then put down the small boats. The people on the boat hanged from the large boat along the ropes, arrived on the small boat, and then paddled to the trestle.

Hao Fenglou was one of the first to land. He looked tired and his face looked a little pale. Perhaps because he hadn't eaten fresh vegetables for a long time, his skin color was very bad. In fact, when he arrived in Longjiang, he was shocked by the scene here in Longjiang.

People... are everywhere. What is the situation? Are they here to welcome themselves? When did they have such courtesy?

When he got on the boat and saw Zhu Di standing on the pier with his hands behind his back, Hao Fenglou was even more surprised, Emperor...

The emperor personally welcomed it. What kind of honor is this? Obviously, something was wrong. Hao Fenglou didn't seem to have much confidence.

However, he was definitely not the kind of shy person. After landing, he immediately came to Zhu Di and said seriously: "My son has seen my father, long live my emperor!"
