Ambition Lord

Chapter 431 The Unfamiliar Sea Ship

Not long after returning to the principality, Allen issued an order to immediately summon Tony, the head of the household registration office, to the palace hall.

Not long after, a guard with a sword hanging on his waist and a spear in his hand walked in quickly, came to the hall and knelt down and said: "My lord! Director Tony of the household registration office has arrived, and he is outside the hall at this time! "

"Order him to come in!" Allen said lightly while sitting on top of the hall.

"Yes!" The guard bowed his head and quickly stepped back.

Outside the main hall, Tony, the head of the Household Registration Office, was thinking about it. After he got the news that the Duke had summoned him urgently, he immediately packed up and hurried into the palace. He didn't even have time to think about the reason why the Duke summoned him.

If it is because I have made a lot of achievements, the Lord Duke is to reward me, or there is some special task to be entrusted to him, so it is okay to ask me to come here, I am afraid that I have made some mistakes without knowing it, It caused the Duke to be angry, and he immediately wanted to call himself into the palace. If this was the case, then he would be miserable.

Thinking of this, Tony's face turned pale.

"Director Tony! Director Tony!"

At this moment, the guard's shouts pulled Tony back from his ecstasy.

"Director Tony! Your Excellency ordered you to go in!" The guard smiled after seeing Tony recovering.

"Hmm..." Tony nodded, without thinking too much, he walked in quickly.

As soon as Tony entered the hall, he saw the Duke sitting in the hall, and then found the old man Serkesa standing in the hall. However, Tony had never seen Serkesa before, and after taking a look, he turned his eyes away.

"Your Excellency!" Tony walked quickly to the center of the hall, bowed and shouted.

"Yeah!" Allen nodded.

"My lord duke! I don't know what's the important thing to call Tony here?" Tony asked tentatively.

"Tony! This is Mr. Serkesa!" Allen said with a smile, looking at Serkesa beside him.

Tony talked about Allen's gaze, and turned his gaze to Serksa on his right. He just glanced at it and didn't observe it carefully, but now he found that the old man next to him had lost half of his right leg and his right arm. He was sticking a black walking stick close to his body.

"This Mr. Serkesa is a famous shipbuilder, and now he is also a member of our Red Dragon Principality. In the future, he will help the Red Dragon Principality build sea ships!" Allen continued.

After Tony heard this, he felt relieved. It seemed that the Duke was not looking for him to ask for a crime, and then he smiled at Sir Kesa, which was regarded as a greeting.

Then Tony stood there silently, waiting for the Duke to continue. After all, the Duke has not yet said why he was called here, but he guessed that it might have something to do with the Mr. Serkesa next to him.

"However, due to the complicated process of manufacturing sea-going ships, it is impossible for Mr. Serksa alone to complete it, so a large number of carpenters are required to cooperate. Next, your household registration office needs to compile a detailed information of carpenters across the country, and assist Serk Mr. Sa has completed the recruitment of carpenters!" Allen ordered.

"Yes! Your Excellency the Duke!" Tony said loudly after hearing this.

Looking at Tony who withdrew, Allen secretly calculated in his heart that as long as the carpenters are in place, and with the experienced shipbuilder Sir Kesa, the Chilong Principality can start trying to build sea-going ships immediately.

Once sea ships can be manufactured in batches, it will definitely greatly promote the sea trade of the Red Dragon Principality, and with the ability to manufacture sea ships, the Red Dragon Principality does not need to go to the Austro-Hungarian Kingdom to buy sea ships. In this regard, it was constrained by the Austro-Hungarian Kingdom.

But not long after, Allen frowned suddenly. He overlooked a very important thing. If the Austro-Hungarian Kingdom discovered that the Chilong Principality had built a ship, and it was very similar to the Kuroshio Kingdom's sea-going ship, would it happen? Lenovo, and then found out that Serkesa was taken away by Chilong Principality!

After all, Chilong Principality, a newly established principality, suddenly showed the ability to manufacture sea ships, and the sea ships manufactured were still in the style of the Kuroshio Kingdom. Coupled with the disappearance of Seksa, the Austro-Hungarian Kingdom was very It's hard not to think about it.

After realizing the problem, Alan's face couldn't help becoming serious. If this matter is not handled properly, it is very likely to attract the hostility of the Austro-Hungarian Kingdom, which will be very detrimental to the future development of the Red Dragon Principality.

Allen rubbed his head in distress. At this time, the Chilong Principality is not suitable to fight against the Austro-Hungarian Kingdom. From the aspects of army, economy, territory, powerhouse, influence, etc., the Chilong Principality is compared with the Austro-Hungarian Kingdom. , are more than one chip away.

After thinking for a long time, until it slowly darkened, Allen hesitated for a long time, and finally made up his mind.

Sea ship building still needs to be built, but he plans to move the manufacturing site to Heilan Island. Although this will take some time and effort in terms of materials, it will greatly reduce the probability of being discovered during sea ship building.

At the same time, Allen also decided to postpone the commercial application of the manufacture of sea-going ships, and use them in military and ocean exploration first.

Establish a naval school on Helan Island, and manufacture a large number of sea ships that can be used to train naval fighters.

In addition to training the navy, the manufactured sea ships can also be used for ocean exploration and development, just like the Snake Dance Island, with a large number of sea ships, the capacity is greatly increased, and a large number of people can be transported to the Snake Dance Island in a short period of time. The Dragon Principality's development of Snake Dance Island will be greatly accelerated.

Allen remembered that he had chosen before, but there were four islands. He had only explored Snake Dance Island until now, so there are still three islands waiting for Chilong Principality.

In the past when there were few ships, Allen could only choose to come one by one, but if the number of seagoing ships increased greatly, Allen could explore multiple islands at the same time.

……

The sun has completely sunk into the western edge of the sea, the sky has already darkened, and the lingering purple moonlight has fallen into the broad waves, making the sea even darker and darker.

At this time, on the surface of the deep sea, how many miles away from Heilan Island, a huge black shadow was constantly swaying along with the rolling waves.

If you look carefully, it is a huge ship about 30 meters long. Against the purple moonlight, you can clearly see the three tall masts on the ship. A sail full of holes flapped weakly under the sea wind.

It seems that there are still patterns embroidered on these sails, but due to too many damages, they are no longer recognizable now.

There were faint lights flickering on the ship, and an oil lamp with a cover hung on the bow and stern of the ship. At this time, there were many figures standing on the deck of the ship.

Most of these people have their upper body bare. They are tall or short, thin or fat, but their skin is very dark. Under the oil lamp, it is not much whiter than the dark and faint surface of the sea boat under their feet.
