Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 1182 Human weapon

   All the ministers hurriedly rolled up the bank notes and put them back in their sleeves.

   It’s okay, even fifty taels of silver are saved.

  They all put on a blank face and said haha: "Oh, goodbye, goodbye."

Fang Jifan couldn't help but want to pick his nostrils, but he seemed very calm. These guys may not be able to accept the price increase at first. From a psychological point of view, this is understandable. Accept it, but it doesn't matter, time is the best catalyst, they will figure it out, and then they will only be beaten and complained about why they didn't buy it earlier.

  Fang Jifan passed them by and hurried to the line.

  Walking inside, Emperor Hongzhi's glasses were placed on the desk, feeling dejected, Fang Jifan said happily: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, great joy, great joy, our seats have already been sold, and they are still very popular."

  Emperor Hongzhi looked up at the delighted Fang Jifan with only red eyes.

  He wanted to open his mouth to say something, but it was a bit difficult to say.

   Sighing heavily, Emperor Hongzhi picked up the parchment on the file: "Jifan, you can read it for yourself."

  Fang Jifan took the parchment, looked down, and was stunned.

  He was silent.

  Emperor Hongzhi saw him for a long time without any movement, and said: "Jifan, you have to mourn."

   "My condolences?" Fang Jifan couldn't help stuffing his hands into his nostrils, with a calm expression on his face: "Your Majesty, what are you mourning for?"

  Emperor Hongzhi: "..."

   This kid...

  Emperor Hongzhi shook his head and said, "I can understand the pain of losing my father."

  Fang Jifan shook his head: "But it didn't say that my father passed away."

  Emperor Hongzhi was taken aback.

  Fang Jifan said: "Here we only say that he was hit with thirty-seven knives and wounded his heart, but he didn't say he passed away."

  Emperor Hongzhi took a breath, and couldn't help but said, "Isn't this just passing away?"

  Fang Jifan shook his head: "I think it can be rescued."

  He was in a mess, but he believed that his father was still alive.

  Emperor Hongzhi understood Fang Jifan's feelings. This was an unacceptable fact of grief. He couldn't help feeling: "Don't be sad."

"Don't be sad, my son. This news happened a few months ago. Now it's uncertain. My father is not only alive, but also alive. Maybe I have a younger brother who is about to be born." Fang Jifan winked at Emperor Hongzhi .

Emperor Hongzhi was just emotional, and he couldn't help saying: "I have posthumously named your father the county king and enjoyed the title of county king. At that time, the imperial court will bury him with the ceremony of the county king. The Fang family has been loyal for generations... You, these few days, Have a good rest, don't be sad, if you need anything, just come and find me."

Fang Jifan said: "Your Majesty, my son's father is not dead, so why did he become the king of the county? Don't you just wait a moment, if he is still alive at that time, wouldn't you want to scare your majesty? My father, wouldn't you be a bully?" Your crime?"

Emperor Hongzhi raised his eyebrows, this guy still refuses to accept it until now, Jifan, you have to cheer up, don't let your mind have delusional thoughts, Emperor Hongzhi gritted his teeth and said: "I have been stabbed more than 30 times on my body, and my heart has been hurt. , can you live?"

  Fang Jifan thought for a while, then nodded: "I think it's possible."

  Emperor Hongzhi: "..."

  Fang Jifan said: "If you treat him early, perform an operation, take out the blade remaining on your body, disinfect and suture the wound, if you don't really hurt the vitals, I think... Father should survive."

  This is simply a fantasy.

  Emperor Hongzhi felt sorry, but he couldn't help but want to dispel Fang Jifan's delusion, fearing that when the real bad news came, he couldn't bear it even more.

  Emperor Hongzhi sighed: "Jifan, even if this is the case, this is a narrow escape, and you still have to plan for the worst."

  Fang Jifan shook his head.

  Emperor Hongzhi frowned: "What's wrong?"

  Fang Jifan said: "I don't think my father will die, he has always been strong."

   Speaking of the word strong, a tear was about to fall from the corner of his eye, Fang Jifan flicked his finger smartly, and the tear flew away.

  In this world, no one is stronger than his father.

Fang Jifan can be sure of this point, think about it, after giving birth to a son like himself, he was startled when he was young, and he was training his will every day. His aspirations, having a son like this, must be a pain in his aspirations.

  I, Fang Jifan, are a little angel bestowed by God to my father to train his mind.

  So... you will be alive, isn't it more than thirty dollars? What is this? Back then, I had stabbed him so many times in his heart. Is he different?

  Emperor Hongzhi saw Fang Jifan's heartless appearance, but his eyes were full of mist, and his heart was about to melt: "Hey, if you want to cry, just cry, there are no outsiders here."

   "Don't cry." Fang Jifan said categorically: "My father is still alive, my son has nothing to cry about. My son has to go sell tickets quickly, and my son will leave."

  Fang Jifan turned around quickly, and the moment he turned around, a line of tears flowed out.

  He still believes that his father must be alive, he must be.

  …

  Even though the bad news came from the Golden Continent, the sea trial was still going on as scheduled.

only…

  Zhu Houzhao looked worriedly at Lao Fang who had been silent for the past two days.

  Zhu Houzhao is extremely careful, depending on Fang Jifan's wink.

  Everything is ready.

  The huge ship is already on the sea.

This huge battleship is not smaller than Fuchuan, because it needs to load a huge steam boiler. This giant ship is long and narrow enough to run a horse on the deck. There is a chimney standing in the middle, and sails are still set up. The sails and steam are mixed together. power.

  Because of the huge size of the giant ship, the entire giant ship has three decks. In addition to a large number of cabins, a large number of gun bays are also specially set up.

   There are seventy gun muzzles on the left and right, and they are lined up. Once the baffles of the gun muzzles are opened, the countless artillery can use the slide rails in the cabin to protrude out of the hull, revealing their ferocity.

  The ministers have arrived, and looking at the huge ship in the sea from the deck, they still can't help but marvel at it.

   Compared to other nearby sea ships, this ship is larger in size.

Zhu Houzhao held a stack of blueprints in his hand, and introduced to Emperor Hongzhi and Fang Jifan and others: "Father, this ship is equipped with boilers. In order to strengthen the hull, some Francois shipbuilding techniques are used. This ship, The bottom layer is laid with a keel, which is integrally formed. All the structures are built around this keel, and even stainless alloy steel is used to reinforce some of the hull. Of course, only a small amount is used, otherwise, the hull will be very heavy. .”

Zhu Houzhao said again: "The biggest advantage of this ship is that its hull is much larger than ordinary ships, but Father, I think you have studied physics. Logically speaking, the bigger the ship, The smaller the power, therefore, the warships are often narrow and long, mainly light and flexible, but because of the steam boilers and the sails as power assistance, the speed of the ships is not higher than that of ordinary warships. under."

"The huge hull has many advantages. It can be equipped with many artillery pieces. Of course, it is a pity that the explosive shells cannot be boarded. The artillery used are all light iron cannons, and they all shoot solid shells. , There is a slide rail under the artillery, which is convenient for the artillery to calibrate and counteract the mutual force."

   "And here..." He pointed to the structure of a hull on the drawing: "Here, reinforcements are made to strengthen the hull, and here...here..."

He took a deep breath: "When preparing to build a steamship, Erchen led the research on the tidy boilers of the steamship. At the same time, the matching ships were also researched at the same time. In Tianjin Wei, thousands of The shipbuilders built a huge dock and spent countless silver to build it here. They chose the best wood. Among the shipbuilders, there are Francois, big cannibals, and more Of course, our skilled craftsmen of Ming Dynasty, in order to solve the problem of matching boilers and strengthening the hull, there are 170 difficulties to overcome, and now, success or failure depends on it."

  Emperor Hongzhi looked at Fang Jifan cautiously.

  Fang Jifan looked indifferent, pinching his nostrils with his fingers, looking absent-minded.

  Emperor Hongzhi sighed bitterly in his heart, really... hey...

With his hands behind his back, he looked at the blueprints. In the blueprints, there were countless numbers and dimensions marked on the various side elevations and plans. He couldn't understand, so he simply raised his head and looked at the giant ship in the distance. The emperor said: "Are you sure it won't sink after its boiler is turned on?"

  Zhu Houzhao said: "Father, in theory, it will not sink. We are still in rivers and lakes, have done experiments, and have practical models..."

   Speaking of this, Zhu Houzhao was silent for a while, and finally said: "My son thinks, it shouldn't sink."

  Emperor Hongzhi squinted his eyes and nodded.

  He saw that the huge sail had been raised, and there seemed to be words on the huge sail.

  So, he stretched out his hand: "Binoculars."

  Xiao Jing hurriedly took out the binoculars.

  Emperor Hongzhi picked up the binoculars and took a look. The huge sail was written in bold and white letters: "The scum of the world is not an official".

  Emperor Hongzhi gasped.

  The scum of the world is not an official.

According to the study of luck, these seven characters are really the gospel since the Ming Dynasty went to the West. It has witnessed one miracle after another, and its name has long been recorded in history. Now, the name of this boat has made Emperor Hongzhi feel more at ease. .

  …

On the other side, many ministers are standing or sitting, but Wang Bushi is naturally sitting. He has a lot of money, and sitting tickets are nothing to him. He held up the binoculars at the same time, looked up, and saw The seven characters were actually involuntary, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up, and he smiled: "My lords, what's the name of that boat?"

  Everyone looked at it one after another, and when they saw these seven characters clearly, their thoughts became complicated.

  Speaking of it, to a certain extent, if his name is also on this ship, even if his name is left in history with such a face, it seems... not bad.

  …

  Crying, begging for a monthly pass.
