"Reporting to Your Highness, and all the lords, after half a year of hard work, I am fortunate to have lived up to my fate, and now the clipper ship has indeed been successfully built." Gong Shuji nodded solemnly.

"Okay, that's really great!" Fusu was overjoyed and applauded repeatedly.

Li Si and the others were also overjoyed.

Li Yang was also very excited, and hurriedly asked: "Has the clipper ship been launched? How is the speed?"

Yes, that's what matters.

Because the flying shear ship can be called a flying shear ship, except for the long and sharp curve of the bow like a scissor-shaped stem, the more important reason is that its speed is so fast that its sharp, curved scissor-shaped bow It can cut water and cut waves on the sea, so it is called a flying shear boat.

That is to say, just building a sea ship with a shape similar to a flying shear ship is not considered a success, but a fast sailing speed is required to successfully build a flying shear ship.

Gongshu Chu naturally understood Li Yang's meaning, and immediately replied: "The flying shear ship has been tested, and its speed is three times faster than that of the previous sea-going ships. It can be called super fast!"

Speaking of this, Gongshu Chu himself became excited, and at the same time he was full of admiration and admiration for Li Yang.Because this kind of sea-going ship selected in this way was designed by the Lord Zhen in front of him.

Casually proposing some improvements can make the sea-going ship greatly improved. This kind of earth-shattering, weeping ghosts and gods, and outstanding wisdom, Gong Shuji has to look up to.

"Three times! It really worked, haha, it really worked!"

Hearing that the speed had increased by three times compared to previous sea-going ships, Li Yang finally couldn't help but burst out laughing excitedly.Because this has fully demonstrated that the speed of the clipper ship is almost the same as that of the clipper ship in the 18th century.

This is a leap forward in the era of Daqin's navigation industry!

Although everyone has heard Li Yang say that the speed of the flying shear ship is very fast, but now they hear Gong Shuchu say that the speed of the flying shear ship is three times that of the previous sea ships, and everyone is shocked by this statement up!

All of them opened their mouths wide, showing shocked expressions.

"Triple the speed? Oh my god! Doesn't this mean that it only takes two months for the clipper ship to go to Shaohao?" Li Si, Feng Jie and others were speechless in astonishment. coming.

Li Yang nodded: "According to the distance drawn by Xu Fu on the sea chart, it is indeed within two months."

hiss……

Everyone took a deep breath.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and everyone felt shocked.

Such a fast speed, what kind of breakthrough is this, and what kind of meaning it will represent, everyone can imagine in their hearts.

This not only shortens the time from Daqin to Shaohao, but also brings about great progress in the entire era!

It is precisely because of this understanding that everyone knows that the advent of flying shear boats has made no less contribution to society than printing and papermaking in the past.

Thinking of this, everyone cast admiring glances at Gongshu Chu.

Fusu happily patted Gongshuchu on the shoulder and praised: "Okay, that's really great, Gongshuchu, you have made great contributions to Daqin this time!"

Gongshu Chu hurriedly said: "I don't dare to be a minister. If Lord Zhen Guo hadn't designed the flying shear boat, how could I have created such a magical thing? In terms of merit, Lord Zhen should be the first."

Li Yang smiled: "Gong Shu Chu, don't be modest, you have contributed a lot to the successful construction of the clipper ship!"

Fusu nodded: "That's right, both Taifu and Gongshuchu have made great achievements, haha!"

Everyone also nodded and bowed to Li Yang and Gongshu Chu together to show their respect.

Several state ministers bowed to themselves, which frightened Gongshu Chuan, so they quickly returned the bow with a deep bow.

Fusu said: "What would such a fast sea boat look like? Gu really wants to go and see it!"

Li Si, Feng Jie and the others also nodded in sympathy, their eyes filled with anticipation.

However, at this moment, Gongshu Chu seemed to have remembered something, and hurriedly said: "By the way, Your Highness, this time I also brought the model of the flying clipper ship. Even if you don't go to Shandong, you can still see the exact same flying scissors. Shear the boat."

"Oh really!"

Upon hearing this, Fusu was so surprised that he almost jumped up, and hurriedly asked: "Where is it, show it to Gu!"

Of course, Li Si and the others were overjoyed when they heard about the model of the flying shear ship, their eyes were full of curiosity and anticipation.

"Your Highness, wait a moment!"

Gongshu Chu said, then turned around and walked outside the hall, beckoning to the outside, and then two imperial guards carried a wooden box in.

This wooden box is quite big, obviously it should contain a model of a clipper ship.

"Inside this box is a model of a flying clipper ship."

Sure enough, as soon as the wooden box was lifted in front of everyone, Gongshu Chu pointed to the wooden box and said.

"Quick, open!"

Fusu couldn't wait to see the splendor of the flying shear ship, so he hurriedly signaled the imperial army to open the wooden box.However, he was probably worried that the imperial army would damage the clipper ship model inside the wooden box, so he couldn't help but change his words: "Take your time, be careful, don't damage the model!"

"Here!"

The two imperial guards should be, and then carefully opened the wooden box.

Soon, a slender ship with a sharp front end and an exquisite sailboat model full of sails was lifted out of the wooden box.

This model was carefully placed on the table in the hall of the State Council by the Forbidden Army.

Everyone quickly gathered around and looked at the magnificent looking ship in front of them.

I saw that the whole model of the flying shear ship was about four feet long and three feet high.The long and sharp curvilinear scissors-shaped header presents a posture similar to a race, giving people a sense of speed of cutting water and cutting waves at first glance.

The hull of the hull gradually becomes thinner, and the sloping waterline transitions harmoniously to the narrow round stern, harmoniously blending with the graceful bow shape.

The whole clipper ship uses a four-masted full-rig sail, a tall mast whose height reaches 3/4 of the length of the hull, and moon sails and stay sails are also hung on the top mast sail.In addition, there are outriggers on both sides of the ship.The Gongshu book on the side also explained that it is called a wing sail bar, which can be used to hang a wing sail, which increases the lateral extension area of ​​the sail and improves the sailing speed.

Looking at this new type of sea-going ship with a slender shape, a sharp front end, and a mast full of sails and wing sails, Fusu, Li Si and the others were simply shocked by its stunning appearance and momentum.

His eyes were shining, and his mouth was full of amazement. For a long time, his eyes were unwilling to move away from the model of the flying shear ship.

To be honest, although Li Yang has seen pictures of clipper ships in the previous world, and also seen models of clipper ships in film and television works, but... when he saw the model in front of him, he was still amazed by it arrive!

Of course, what amazed Li Yang was not the shape of the clipper ship, but this model... It is simply a superb piece of art that can be called a national treasure handed down from generation to generation.

Li Yang found that he had never seen such an amazing model.

A huge model that is five feet long and nearly four feet high, every detail is so delicate and perfect, and it is also handcrafted according to the proportion of a real clipper ship. The visual conflict it gives is shocking. of.

Li Yang believes that if this thing can be preserved in future generations, it will definitely amaze the world.

"This... model was made by you yourself?" Li Yang couldn't help asking Xiang Gongshu.

Gongshu Book nodded: "Yes."
