"That's it. If you don't believe me, go and see. There is an inscription written by the king on the boat."

Meng Yi said helplessly and naturally.

Well, Zhao Jun bowed his head, she compromised.

"Why are you not happy to see me at all, I have worked so hard to get on this boat."

"Almost missed Fusu, but fortunately, he was busy managing two workshops and didn't have time."

Meng Yi said happily.

"The boat is parked on the shore. How did you come here from Xianyang?"

Xiao He ignored him, but asked about the boat.

"Yes, yes, how did the ship come here? It came faster than expected."

Zhao Jun raised his head again and asked curiously.

So Meng Yi slowly talked to the two about the thrills and excitement along the way.

"In Xianyang, Juzi and the king discussed it. The whole journey will be by water and land to drive the boat. We planned the route and the places where the boat will stop along the way and set off."

"You don't know how dangerous this road is. The currents of several rivers are very fast. I almost thought that the boat was going to capsize. Fortunately, there was no danger."

"Then there is the place to stop the boat. Juzi has planned the place to stop the boat, but there are several places where the boat can't be parked at all, and the boat can't dock. We can only find a place to stay while walking. It’s not enough, but fortunately we were able to dock at the time, otherwise you might not have seen me.”

"Another time, the boatman didn't fix it properly, and the boat stopped moving for some reason. Fortunately, we had a Mohist junior on board, so he repaired the boat."

"In short, none of you can imagine how difficult and dangerous our journey is."

Meng Yi covered his face and said in a miserable manner.

Zhao Jun Xiao He looked at him quietly without talking to him.

"Okay, but the scenery along the way is something that ordinary people will never see in their lifetime."

Meng Yi sighed solemnly.

"Okay, just have fun in your heart."

Zhao Jun has already seen that he is still happy this trip.

Meng Yi pursed his lips to hide his smile.

"Then don't talk so much nonsense, hurry up and take us to see the boat."

Zhao Jun urged, and rushed Meng Yi to lead them the way.

Along the way, Meng Yi kept chatting with Xiao He about what he had seen and heard on the road.

Zhao Jun was not in the mood to listen, all he wanted was to see the boat.

The upper reaches of the Changyuan River passed through prefectures and counties, and it was some distance from the prefect's mansion. They walked for about half an hour before they vaguely saw the river.

Meng Yi walked in front.Take them to find a place to disembark.

On the empty riverside, a black boat was parked at this moment.

The size of the boat does not seem very large, but it is not at the same level as the small boat that Zhao Jun took before.

Iron is used in many places on this ship, and only a small part is made of wood.

From such a long distance, Zhao Jun had already seen Ying Zheng's words to the boat.

Then the three big characters of dragon, flying and phoenix dancing are engraved on the side of the ship.

Zhao Jun's eyes lit up, and he quickly ran to the riverside.

At this time, the people who stayed on the boat also ran down.

Xiao He also squeezed to the front, and reached out to touch this 'big guy' whom he had never seen before.

For people at this time, such a ship is indeed the largest he has ever seen.

He carefully touched the iron shell on the side, and kept nodding.

Meng Yi looked at the two of them proudly, then beckoned and led them to the boat.

The cabin is fairly large, with three separate rooms for people to rest.

At the bottom is the most critical power part of the whole ship, and there are piles of coal waiting to be burned beside it.

"Look, this is the power cabin of a steam ship."

Meng Yi was very proud, he was the first person to travel on this boat.

Zhao Jun looked around twice, and most of them were similar to her previous drawings.

But you can make things completely according to the drawings.

Zhao Jun is still full of admiration for Juzi.

"What kind of structure and principle is there, I can't understand it at all."

Xiao He squatted beside him and muttered to himself.

He has never seen the internal schematic diagram, and he can't understand the principle at all just by looking at the outer shell.

There was only doubt and wonder in my head.

After that, Meng Yi took them to visit the whole ship in an all-round way.

"Isn't it very exquisite, it is completely different from ordinary wooden boats."

Even though he had already lived on the boat for half a month, Meng Yi couldn't help admiring him when he walked around again.

Zhao Jun couldn't help but nodded.

It is indeed very different from wooden boats, and there are already some shadows of modern ships.

Although the size is not comparable to those of real ships, it is enough.

"Okay, I'll keep this boat, and you, when are you going to go back?"

After a few people looked around in detail, they disembarked and stood by the river.

"When are you planning to go back, my lord? Haven't you finished your work in Berkshire?"

Meng Yi asked back.

"The work in Berkshire is almost done, but there is still Shu County here. Bashu and Bashu are still too early to go back."

Zhao Jun replied.

"Okay, it's a pity that I can only take a carriage when I go back."

Meng Yi sighed and said with some regret.

"However, I will definitely stay in Berkshire for a while after I come here."

"My lord, what are you going to do next?"

Although it is an escort, you can't return right after you arrive, at least you have to play around.

"Well, you can play with us for two days. It just so happens that my work in Berkshire is almost over. When the time comes, we will go to Shu County, and you will go back to Xianyang."

Zhao Jun stared at the boat for a few more times, then turned back to Zhoujun.

Xiao He also turned around and left.

The three of them went back to the county and had a good night's rest, and the next day she directed the people on board to prepare to leave the county.

"Xiao He, please tell the boatman about the next route. I guess you will have to take this route in the later stage."

On the boat, Zhao Jun found a chair and sat on the deck, and said leisurely with the river wind blowing.

With a map in his hand, Xiao He has already planned the route.

Meng Yi who followed onto the boat was a little excited.

"Where are we going? Are we going to play in Berkshire Hills?"

"Where did you go before, my lord? I haven't heard much about you in Xianyang."

The ship sailed slowly downstream, and gradually smoke came out from behind the ship.

There was also a flag fluttering in the wind on the ship, and the text embroidered with gold thread on it was "Qin".

Zhao Jun glanced at him and replied casually.

"Didn't you say you wanted to come to play? We'll take you to a good place right now, and you'll know when you get there."

This line is the waterway from Zhou County to Jiangyuan County.

According to the map, this waterway runs between mountains and rivers, and can go directly to Jiangyuan from the state and county.

This is also what Zhao Jun had been optimistic about before, the delivery route of the wine shop.

"Okay, then I want to take a good look at the scenery of Bashu, which has been rumored many times."

Meng Yi stood at the bow of the boat and looked at the water that was heading towards the deep mountains, and their boat followed the water and sailed into Berkshire.
