Chapter 259

Shu Fu strolled along the coastline.

Walked for miles.

All docks.

Almost every family has spent a lot of effort to build their own. Shu Fu wanted to buy one, but the guard's feedback was: Don't even think about it.

---No!

Behind these piers are powerful families.

Not bad money.

No one sold.

Even if there is.

Not many can be vacated a year, and all of them are digested internally, and they will not be listed like a fire sale. Here, the dock is a high-quality asset.

Even if you want to buy land near the sea, you have to walk dozens of miles.

have no choice!

Just go farther away, at least you can build boldly.

"Get a piece of land and build a dock."

"yes!"

If you give an order, you don't need Shu Fu to take care of it, and your subordinates will operate it.

Moreover, just like the bound building in Xihai City, there is no need to buy it, and leasing it seems more cost-effective.

The function of the dock is to hide the eyes and ears.

At that time.

If you want to do something at sea, you can directly send the ship over.

. . .

is strolling.

A ship on the sea caught Shu Fu's attention.

White.

It looks smooth on the outside.

blue sails.

About twenty meters long.

This is not the key, the key is. . . It is made of iron.

That's right.

Steel!

In Alien, especially near the sea, the spirit of exploration is good. Some technology enthusiasts have already touched the theory of buoyancy and produced many products.

but.

Steel is still far from becoming a mainstream shipbuilding material!

There are many problems.

First.

structure.

Although it is strong, there is no matching welding technology and rivet technology, and the sealing is a big problem. And because it is steel, it is easily corroded.

Processing is still difficult.

…

second.

power.

Even if the shell is made of iron, the power is still sails.

…

third.

cost.

The lack of technology to manufacture a ship of the same tonnage makes its cost much higher than that of wood.

Difficulties one by one.

Restricting the development of alien steel ships, so far, all families in Xihai City are doing such research, but they can only manufacture offshore ships.

compared to wood.

If there is an extra hole in the deep sea, it can be plugged with nails and blocks.

If it is made of steel, plugging is a big trouble.

Some people are curious: why poke a hole?

Answer: Who drives and wants to have a car accident?

Accident.

man-made.

Various problems may occur in the deep sea.

therefore.

Before a series of problems are resolved, the development of steel ships here will be firmly pressed to the ground. In fact, Shu Fu doesn't mind pushing.

After all, having a ship and being powerful are not equal signs.

No matter what.

When I upgrade next time, if I unlock long-range weapons, those iron guys will not matter at all, at most they will be regarded as fireworks on the sea.

threaten?

Thinking too much, during this period, he can still make a lot of money.

In fact.

Even without upgrading, the current equipment that the guards have obtained around the world can easily assemble a production line of various weapons, and can produce all kinds of reruns.

Rolls easily.

However, Shu Fu was not willing to go to war.

It would be best not to use such cruel means.

Dead bodies littered the field.

Blood flowed like a river.

There are millions of dead bodies.

…

It sounds domineering, but the picture is not beautiful.

Of course, this does not mean that Shu Fu is kind, and he will not be soft when it is necessary to be cruel.

. . .

It was at this time.

Xihai City.

Wang family.

Knowing that the news was spread, the Patriarch ruthlessly threw a lot of things. He didn't expect it to be leaked in such a way. If he knew it, he would have silenced it the day before yesterday.

Now.

Regret is too late.

After the parties learned.

Surely there will be people.

hide?

useless.

People will send people to investigate, Jun Island, or all overseas islands, are nominally owned by all parties, and whoever comes first will belong to them.

It's not that they are humble.

It is the result of a compromise.

at first.

For the ownership of the overseas islands, there were countless conflicts and many people died. In the end, everyone saw that it was not an option to fight like this, and all parties suffered great losses.

Simply share, if there is a treasure, we can develop it together.

This ended the chaos.

It is also because of this that the interest of all parties in opening the sea has dropped sharply.

Anyway, it's useless to find it, and it can't be attributed to oneself.

but.

First-come-first-served is still available. If you find a treasure, you can mine it secretly without telling others, but once everyone knows it, they will come in and snatch it.

The only comforting thing is that you don't need to share the things you mined before.

But after that, you have to give up part of the profits.

In this way, the stability of Xihai City has been maintained for decades, and there has been no major internal conflict.

now.

The head of the Wang family felt distressed.

General stuff.

Even if it is a gold mine, it is not a big deal, because most of the gold mines are not high in content, it is difficult to mine, and smelting into gold is cumbersome.

However.

The gold deposits discovered this time are not only large in scope, but also high in content.

It is a big treasure, conservatively estimated that it can produce hundreds of thousands of taels a year, and it can be produced for many years.

But now they have to separate out, who can not feel distressed?

Having a headache.

"Master, the generator from Zhengyuan Company has been delivered."

Finally came the good news.

"Quick, install it and see."

"yes."

It has been more than 20 days since Zhengyuan Company sold generators, and all parties have bought a lot. The spokesperson of the Wang family in Yuancheng will deliver the goods as soon as they arrive.

It can be said.

In Xihai City, this is definitely the first wholesale motor.

For the light.

In fact, the head of the house didn't care too much, it was just a little brighter, and the oil lamp continued to illuminate.

What he cares about is the kind of electric energy. When the industrial zone was opened, he showed another product---electric fan, which can generate wind when it rotates.

As for the structure of the fan, if it is used in water, they tried it by hand, and it can generate a lot of thrust.

It depends on the rpm.

therefore.

Living by the sea all year round, and proficient in shipbuilding, he inevitably thought of its use in shipping, if it could be installed on a ship.

Even without wind.

You can also go forward, this is the nautical revolution.

Thinking of this, the Patriarch couldn't help trembling.

Excited!

excited!

It's like discovering a new world.

However, it was soon another basin of cold water, because I didn't know the mechanical mechanism that converts electrical energy into rotational power, and it is now winter, and the electric fan has not been sold yet.

It just made him itchy.

There is a high probability that it cannot be imitated even if it is dismantled, but at least it is better than a dark one.

. . .

When the clouds moved in all directions in Xihai City.

now.

Shu Fu had already left there.

Dayan Empire.

imperial city.

Leaving in a carriage, all the way east.

Of the eight newly added alien teleportation points, four are equivalent to 'positioning', and they are located in the southeast, northwest, respectively.

To the west, Xihai City.

To the south is the southernmost city of Jinzhou in the Nanyu Empire, a prefecture near the sea.

To the east is the border of the Dayan Empire, and beyond that is a desert, where there are some small forces at the tribal level.

To the north is Qianzhaiye Island, an island that is almost located in the cold zone, but I heard that there are silver mines on it, but it is a bit difficult to mine, so Shu Fu became interested.

To be completed.

The entire Quartet will be surrounded by Yuan City as the core and two 'circle' teleportation arrays inside and outside.

No matter where you go, it's much closer than before.

Back and forth.

Just for the arrangement of these teleportation points, Shu Fu had to go to the end of this month.

But it is also an essential time investment up front.

everything.

They are all working for themselves, so be busy when you are busy!
