If the size of the Bi 'an was already quite spectacular, and the size of the warship was comparable to the size of a frigate in the real world, then the Huang County's newly launched turreted ship was larger than all the destroyers in the real world. It was even sturdier than an oversized cruiser!
The length of the turreted ship was 220 meters, and the width was 40 to 50 meters. The height of the bridge itself was 15 to 16 meters, and with the addition of the front, middle, and rear sails, the highest point of the ship was 30 to 40 meters high. ▲ 〃
The upper deck of the turreted ship was divided into 3 floors, and the structure was somewhat similar to the upper deck of a warship. The surface of each floor was covered with cowhide, and there was a parapet wall. There were combat windows, driving windows, and spear holes, etc. Its defensive power was very strong, and it was like a fortress.
In terms of size, the turreted ship was actually much smaller than the cruisers and destroyers in the real world. The length and width of the hull was comparable to a small or medium sized aircraft carrier in the real world, and at the very least, it was comparable to a large landing ship!
In terms of appearance, the turreted ship was absolutely majestic and mighty, and looked down on all the other ships in the world. It was also an unparalleled leviathan in the sea!
Yang Rui looked at it from afar, and his heart was filled with pride. Following that, he spent almost half a day looking at the turreted ship over and over again, and was reluctant to leave. It was only until Xiaohui sent a message that Yang Rui was pulled out of this state.
Because the message sent by his younger sister Xiaohui really shocked Yang Rui, she actually used a very sweet tone to tell Yang Rui that she was in love. When Yang Rui heard this, he was stunned. This lass actually fell in love at such a young age!
Yang Rui directly judged the concept of "puppy love", and it wasn't Yang Rui's arbitrary judgment. Although his younger sister Xiaohui was already an adult in age. She had already lost the ability to move freely from a very young age. Her social experience and knowledge were still like that of a child, and her understanding of love was a complete blank.
And now, with Xiaohui's current state, Yang Rui keenly felt that his sister Xiaohui was likely to be the one who had fallen deeper!
"Xiaohui, bring your friend with you. Let's meet somewhere. Let's meet in Chang 'an City … Don't reveal anything about me for the time being. Also, don't tell anyone about your Internal Strength cultivation …"
Before he could figure out the other party's situation. This was something that Yang Rui could not accept as an older brother. Therefore, after Xiaohui had revealed some clues, Yang Rui had asked Xiaohui to bring that person to see him immediately.
"Sigh! Am I being too sensitive as a brother? "
After Yang Rui had almost forced Xiaohui to bring that person to see him, there was a moment when he felt that he might have been a little too anxious.
However, Yang Rui was Xiaohui's only relative, and at the same time, he was also Xiaohui's parent. When he heard that Xiaohui was in love, the disappointment in the depths of his heart couldn't help but surface. It was impossible for him not to be worried about Xiaohui's future happiness.
"I will send people from Huang County to come here as soon as possible to build a territory here. It will be a high-grade dock specially made to guard the ships. You all should guard the high-grade docks carefully!"
Yang Rui instructed Sun Bao before he left.
"Yes, sir!" Sun Bao replied respectfully.
This original pirate leader was just like Qi Zheng, Li Dong, Tian Bao, and the others who had submitted to Yang Rui. At this time, they had all been promoted to the level of high-level generals.
However, as Yang Rui's historical figures and famous generals continued to increase, Sun Bao and the others were no longer as useful as before under Yang Rui. When it came to some confidential matters, Yang Rui would first think of these few people from back then.
If it wasn't for the limit on the number of territories that players could build, Yang Rui would have already built a territory near the docks in Huang County. However, at this time, a player could only build one territory. Even though Yang Rui was already the Governor of Qing Province and the King of Bohai Sea, he still couldn't break this limit.
From this point, it could be seen that the game system still had restrictions on players. Building a territory was something that Juping County Magistrate Liu could easily do. He had taken the initiative to build a small business town outside of Ao Lai Valley as a trade link between Dashan City and Juping City.
However, this wasn't a problem for Yang Rui. Although Yang Rui didn't have the authority to build a territory, as the Governor of Qing Province, it wasn't a problem for the Huang County Magistrate to build a territory here.
Originally, Yang Rui was going to let the Huang County Magistrate handle this matter. However, he coincidentally encountered Xiaohui's matter, so he could only postpone it.
After the construction of the territory was completed, the few advanced docks in Huang County would become another large shipbuilding base for Yang Rui. Yang Rui was preparing to hand over the blueprint of the large three-sail seagoing ship that he had obtained from the storyline rankings to Jiao Wen and start production there.
Currently, Yang Rui still didn't have enough carpenters. Although Yang Rui had snatched a lot of Dong Zhuo's profession players during the Dong Zhuo Rebellion storyline, most of the high-level carpenters were busy building turrets, Mengwu, and warships or helping from the side. The low-level carpenters were all involved in the production of hunting bows.
One had to know that the production of hunting bows had always been highly valued by Yang Rui!
However, there weren't enough people to complete the production of tools needed for farming such as the production of wheeling and driving. In short, Yang Rui still didn't have enough carpenters.
In any case, Yang Rui immediately put everything aside when he encountered his sister Xiaohui's matter. After he arrived at Huang County on the Flying Carpet, he used the teleportation circle to teleport to Chang 'an City.
Before he teleported, Yang Rui deliberately took out the Shapeshifting Mask and changed into the appearance of a passerby to avoid exposing his identity. There might be people in Chang 'an City who could recognize Yang Rui's identity.
However, after Yang Rui arrived at Chang 'an City first, he waited for a long time and didn't see Xiaohui. So, he contacted Xiaohui again and found out that Xiaohui and her so-called friend were in a county near Chang' an City. Originally, Xiaohui wanted to teleport directly, but that person insisted on taking the courier carriage, so they arrived a little later.
"Brother, this is Dalei! This is my brother … "
"Hello! Brother, hello! I'm Dalei. "
After about an hour, Xiaohui and that person arrived at the agreed location in Chang 'an City. After Xiaohui's introduction, the other party immediately greeted them warmly.
Yang Rui muttered in his heart. Looking at the other party's way of treating people, he didn't seem to be a rigid person. However, he couldn't bear the cost of teleporting. If he teleported from a county near Chang 'an City, it would only be two-thirds cheaper than taking the courier carriage.
"Hello."
Yang Rui still held a grudge against the other party for not arriving for a long time. Perhaps it was Yang Rui's reluctance to part with Xiaohui. Therefore, he only responded in a low voice and sized up this player named Dalei.
Although the image of the character in the game could be adjusted, there were many people who used their original image. However, this Dalei's image was very suspicious. There seemed to be some traces of adjustment.
"Brother, why don't we sit at the tea stall in front …"
Dalei seemed to be flattering as he spoke.
Originally, Yang Rui planned to ask for a room with the two of them at A pint of incense. However, since Dalei suggested it first, Yang Rui didn't object.
The cost of the tea stall was definitely not on the same level as A pint of incense. However, Yang Rui also lived a hard life and didn't care too much about it. He just felt that Dalei's actions were a little too slippery. Coupled with his beautified appearance, Yang Rui couldn't help but suspect that Dalei had the intention to gain something without risking anything.
"Brother, drink some water."
After arriving at the tea stall, Dalei poured tea for Yang Rui with great familiarity. This made Yang Rui feel that Dalei should be a wily old fox. However, looking at Xiaohui's shy and sweet expression, Yang Rui began to hesitate. Perhaps he should give Xiaohui more space and choice?
"How old is Dalei this year?"
He couldn't get any more useful information from Dalei's performance. Thus, Yang Rui took the initiative to ask about Dalei's situation for the first time.
"Twenty … twenty-four."
Dalei's answer made the sharp Yang Rui suspicious. This kid seemed to be a little dishonest. After pausing for a moment, he saw Yang Rui's cautious gaze and then reported an age.
Even if this kid wasn't lying and his real age was twenty-four, he was still one or two years older than Yang Rui. No matter what, it made Yang Rui feel uncomfortable.
"Where is your home?"
"What does your job do in real life?"
"What kind of people are in your home?"
“.....”
After that, Yang Rui asked Dalei a lot of questions as if he was checking his account. However, this kid didn't show any flaws like before and always answered smoothly. Yang Rui couldn't figure out if what he said was true or not.
"Brother …"
Seeing Yang Rui's continuous questioning, Xiaohui seemed to be a little unhappy. She pulled Yang Rui's sleeves several times. Yang Rui could only stop his questioning. He didn't know how to probe the other party.
Originally, according to Yang Rui's original intention, he couldn't wait to forcefully break up the other party. However, after seeing Xiaohui's happy face, he hesitated. At the same time, he was more worried about Dalei's character. He didn't know if it was because he was too cautious, but he kept feeling that something was wrong.
"Aiya, how could I forget!"
Yang Rui suddenly slapped his forehead and muttered softly. He was really confused because he was too concerned. If he had to distinguish whether a person's words were true or false in the game, how hard could it be for Yang Rui?
"You two wait here for fifteen minutes. I have something urgent to attend to. I'll be back soon …"
