Li Shimin ignored Zhang Feng's last words. He even automatically filtered out Zhang Feng's last words!
However, he remembered the raft incident.
Raft!
How could I forget such a thing?
As long as you can remember this point, I will … "
Bamboo raft, wooden raft.
I don't have any ready-made ones, but I can dismantle the hull of a large ship to make one!
This would perfectly filter out the danger of the ship's bottom being smashed by rocks. Why didn't anyone think of such a simple method?
Why didn't anyone think of such a simple method at this time?
Was it too complicated?
Or did everyone's thinking go astray?
However, Li Shimin sincerely admired Zhang Feng.
At the very least, he recalled Zhang Feng's disdainful question when he first arrived. That's it?
Li Shimin felt that Zhang Feng was asking for a beating, but now …
I'm the one who's really an idiot!
"Brother Zhang Feng, is it really possible to do something as simple as a raft? If it's possible, why didn't anyone think of it before? "
"This, how would I know? If you want to ask, ask His Majesty! To be honest, you only need to look at the geese on the water to understand. None of you can think of it … I'm simply … "
"Enough!"
Li Shimin was flustered.
He hurriedly got up to leave.
"His Majesty is still waiting for this matter. Lord Zhangsun should be coming to my residence to find a solution soon. If there's nothing else, I'm leaving!"
"Sorry for the disturbance, goodbye!"
Li Shimin finished speaking and was about to leave.
Wei Zheng immediately followed. Only Zhangsun Wuji, who was holding a prawn, was stunned.
After a moment, he slowly took out an ingot of gold from his pocket and prepared to leave.
Zhang Feng was also stunned.
"Wait!"
"Don't leave yet!"
"Hey! Lao Tzu hasn't finished speaking! "
When Li Shimin heard this, he slowly withdrew his foot that had already stepped out of the tavern.
Zhang Feng said angrily, "I haven't finished speaking, and you're already running away? Aren't you afraid of getting beaten up when you go back? "
"This method is only the beginning. After the goods leave the shoal, we still have to change ships."
"Now, your boats should all be gondolas, right?"
As he spoke, Zhang Feng knew that they wouldn't understand, so he drew a cross-section of the ship with some wine on the table.
Zhangsun Wuji looked at it and nodded. "Yes, all the ships of the Tang Dynasty are basically like this. But the bottom of the five-tooth warship is semicircular, even a little like an egg."
"That's right!"
Zhang Feng waved his hand and said, "Come and sit, don't be impatient!"
"There's a big difference in this matter. The reason why the bottom of your ship was smashed is basically because the surface area of the bottom in the water is too large!"
"And the speed of this thing can't be maximized. If you change the method and change to a ship with a smaller surface area, not only can the speed be maximized, but the probability of the hull being hit will also be greatly reduced!"
"There's such a ship?"
Zhangsun Wuji was stunned.
"How can such a ship float in the water?"
Li Shimin also frowned.
He didn't know anything about this thing.
Among the three of them, only Zhangsun Wuji knew a little about this thing.
Wei Zheng was the same as Li Shimin. He didn't know anything about this thing. At this time, he could only sit on the bench and stare at Zhangsun Wuji and Zhang Feng arguing.
"Let me explain to you!"
Zhang Feng patted the end of the bench and motioned for Zhangsun Wuji to sit, and then said, "This is the disadvantage of your current ship. All the ships are made of wood. If I remember correctly, you have already mastered the technology of smelting iron, right?"
"If the bottom and the body of the ship are replaced with iron sheets, think about it. Even if there are thousands of enemy fleets in front of you, you only need one iron lump to annihilate them!"
"You didn't think of this point?"
"Iron????"
"This thing can float in the water?"
Everyone was shocked again.
Zhang Feng knew that no matter how he explained, these people wouldn't understand, so he simply waved his hand and said, "Follow me! I'll broaden your horizons! "
While speaking, Zhang Feng got up and took out his treasured iron wine pot that looked like a coke bottle from the secret compartment of the counter. Then, under Li Shimin's greedy gaze, he slowly walked into the backyard.
Zhang Feng calmly poured some water into the iron kettle from one of the water tanks, and then put the iron kettle into another full water tank.
The next moment, an incredible scene appeared.
The iron kettle was actually floating on the surface of the water!
Although it was a little shaky, it basically wouldn't sink!
This scene made the three pillars of the Tang Dynasty completely dumbfounded.
"This … this pot is made of iron? How can it float on the water? "
"Do you mean to make all the ships like this? But let's not talk about anything else. There's not enough time! And this thing is so small. How heavy will the ship be? This … will it really work? "
Zhang Feng rolled his eyes.
Lying down on the recliner in the yard, he said slowly, "In the beginning, because of the tight time, I think you only need to make the bottom of all the ships sharp, like a sword or a saber. The blade of the saber will be the bottom of the ship, and the back of the saber can be the deck of the cargo ship. It's that simple!"
"But considering your thing, you only need to cover the bottom of the ship with this thing, and then use it to block the gap. In this way, the speed of the ship will be doubled, and from then on, you won't have to worry about the bottom of the ship being damaged. If you still can't solve this problem, Lao Tzu will eat shit!"
"…"
