Zhang Nuo nodded and walked towards the shipyard directly without saying a word.

After all, it’s useless to say a thousand words and ten thousand at this time. In the end, it still depends on the result of the shipbuilding. It’s okay to talk about it after it’s built. It’s not impossible for everyone to sit down and chat.

But if the final result can't satisfy Zhang Nuo, hehe, let's not talk about other things, at least the old Huangtou can't keep his head.

Zhang Nuo doesn't care whether the old Huangtou has any difficulties, anyway, in his opinion, it was the old Huangtou, the person in charge of the shipyard, who caused the delay in progress, so he is the first person responsible, and now even the remedy If you can't do it, why should this person keep it? Just kill Suanqiu.

Zhang Nuo's pace was very fast, basically three steps and two steps to the shipyard.

Old Huangtou and the others were naturally waiting here obediently. The expression on their faces was not sure whether it was anticipation or apprehension. After all, Zhang Nuo said before that he would settle accounts with them if he could not get a sea boat for a month, but he didn't say anything about it. Well let them go.

So, I really can't tolerate them not being nervous, but they are basically scumbags in front of Zhang Nuo, their status is too different, and they don't even have the qualifications to speak proactively.

He could only wait nervously for Zhang Nuo's verdict.

But Zhang Nuo didn't have the heart to make trouble for them at this time, and now he was full of thoughts on the sea ship in front of him that still smelled of tung oil.

This is a galleon, a jewel of the sea of ​​the mid-sixteenth century!

Back then, the never-setting sun relied on this kind of Galen sailing ship, which was improved to be more suitable for long-distance artillery battles and improved handling, almost quickly rose on the ocean.

In terms of the displacement of this kind of ship, 400 tons and 800 tons are used as the dividing line. [-] to [-] tons are small galleons, [-] to [-] are medium-sized, and [-] to [-] are large. of.

Since it is the first new-style sailing boat, it is natural not to make any large ones. It is not something the boatmen in front of us can handle, and there are not enough materials.

The ship in front of me is just a small galleon with a displacement of only more than [-] tons, and its biggest role is still for technical verification.

After all, although Zhang Nuo knew that he was good at this thing, and also knew how many brilliance this ship had created in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, but after all, he only knew it from the information.

Of course he can produce the blueprints, but can they be completely manufactured with the current technology? How much will it cost if they are mass-produced?What is the yield?Whether it is convenient to control and so on is not known until it is actually figured out.

The reason why Zhang Nuo was annoyed at the progress of these people was because he really needed this ship to prove many things.

After all, no matter how much information you know on the blueprints, it is not as reliable as having a real thing in front of your eyes.

Only by actually building a ship from the beginning to the end, can Zhang Nuo clearly understand the difficulties in building such a sea-going ship in this era.

Although there were some crazy things during the construction process, Zhang Nuo suddenly felt that the result seemed to be not bad when he looked at the [-]-meter-long big guy in front of him.

But Zhang Nuo didn't want to give Old Huangtou any good looks for the time being, this thing still had to be tested in the water first.

Zhang Nuo directly arranged for people to launch the new ship, intending to start the first sea trial immediately.

The reason why the dry dock can carry the word "dock" is that he can really park ships. Following Zhang Nuo's order, several management personnel in the port area immediately opened several gates next to it.

The turbulent seawater rushed out of the lockway inside the gate and hit the originally dry ground of the dry dock, splashing waves.

Because this dry dock is not very big, the speed of releasing water here is very good. It didn't take long for the entire dry dock to be filled with sea water, and the sea ships that were originally parked on the beams began to float steadily.

At this time, if it is a ship that has passed the inspection, it is natural to open the dock door of the dock to let the ship sail directly to the sea.

It's a pity that this ship, as the first new-style galleon, is also Datang's first new-style sea-going ship, and there are still many procedures to go.

First, Zhang Nuo led his people directly to the boat along the gangplank that had just been set up. They had to go and see if there was any water leakage on the boat.

After turning around in a circle, Zhang Nuo found that everything was okay so far, at least even after touching the bottom warehouse, there was only the coolness from the contact with the sea water, but no wet smell. This proves that there is no water leakage for the time being.

Then, Zhang Nuo walked around other places on the ship, tried the flexibility and firmness of various organs and components, and they all seemed to be good.

In the end, Zhang Nuo got off the boat directly, and said, "I will come and see you in a day, if there is no water leakage, you will pass the test!", and then just left.

Lao Huangtou and the boatmen saluted Zhang Nuo respectfully, and after watching Zhang Nuo walk away, they immediately sat down on the ground, mother, how scary!

Chapter 570 Finally Sea Trial

There is a whole set of procedures for the acceptance of sea-going ships. Although this era is not as standardized and strict as later generations, at least it is not random.

At least the first one is to verify that the entire ship is well sealed.

After all, it is going to wander in the sea. If the airtightness is not tested well, then it will be floating in the sea at that time, without going to the village or back to the store. If something goes wrong, I am afraid that I will not cry.

However, one day is enough time for inspection. Come and take a look after a day. If there is still basically no moisture seeping through like today, it will prove that the airtightness of the entire ship has passed the test.

As for whether someone would come on board to deliberately cover up some small problems or cause damage, that would be a fart, as if those King Qin's personal guards guarding in front of the ship were just for nothing.

Zhang Nuo's base today is still a military camp. At present, this military camp has been renamed the naval base. After all, Li Shimin has already started the first batch of naval conscription.

And this time the conscription is very interesting, it is the kind that is taken away with the family members.

Since Li Shimin pays for it himself and is a professional soldier recruited, there is nothing the court can do to object. After all, he didn’t spend a penny from the national treasury. Occasionally, some officials complained, but it can be seen that His Majesty and His Royal Highness King Qin both signed the situation. Next, I can only complain a few words at most.

If you really want to object to the end, you are basically courting death. After all, don't they really know who their boss is?

Li Shimin was heartbroken for this new type of force that was determined to be named the Royal Navy, and at the same time, maybe he didn't mean to experiment with the New Deal.

This time the conscription is open to the whole country. Once selected, they will have to serve at least five years, and it is not ruled out that they will not be retired for the time being if they are promoted or valued by the superiors.

But unlike the previous Fubing, not only do you not need to bring your own food this time, but also the same as before when you went to Korea, you will be given a settlement fee first, and then as long as you pass the conscription, you will have an iron rice bowl and wait to get your salary every month That's it.

Moreover, in order to reflect the aggressiveness of the Royal Navy, Li Shimin also forcibly added [-]% to Zhang Nuo's already high salary.

As for the aforementioned conscripts taking away their family members together, it was purely because of a policy of Li Shimin.

As long as you pass the conscription, you can transfer the land under your name to Korea, and the ratio is one to ten.

If you don’t want the land, you can just give the land to the government directly, and then take a sum of money to go to Pyongyang City or the port area to do some small business.

Then at that time, the young children of the family went to the Naval Academy, and then the rest of the family farmed or started a small business in the surrounding area.
