Chapter 109 Guilt

Although this kind of sloop is not large and has only two decks, it has strong practicality. The construction technology is not difficult, and there are not many materials. Once it is put into construction, the craftsmen of the boat can quickly master the construction technology.

And the force of this sloop is not necessarily small. If it is built according to a lighter 200-material ship, the length of the hull is about 20 meters and the width is about 5 meters. In addition, the middle deck is from the bow of the bow to the stern, and three to four six-pound guns can be arranged on both sides of the ship. In the place with the strongest structure in the first stern, two 12-pound guns can also be arranged. In this way, this kind of sloop can be equipped with up to ten cannons, which already has quite strong combat effectiveness.

If the ship is enlarged and built according to the 400-material ship, a mast can be added. The captain can reach nearly 30 meters, and the width of the ship can reach more than 6 meters. Five to seven 12-pound and six-pound cannons can be arranged on both sides of the side of the ship. A few more six-pound cannons can be arranged on the upper open deck. The number can reach nearly 20, which will have stronger firepower.

Although such a ship is not enough to fight against the large Galen warships currently used by the Dutch or the British, it can no longer fall behind in dealing with ordinary medium-sized Western warships. The most important thing is that its speed and flexibility far exceed the Galen ships currently used by Westerners.

Therefore, Yu Xiaotian thought that such a ship was the most needed ship and the most suitable boat for them to build, so he took more than ten days to make this sloop model with several fine carpenters.

When he saw that the ship model was completely completed and presented in front of him, Yu Xiaotian breathed a long sigh of relief. This is the best thing he has done so far, which he thinks he has done since he came to the world, and it is also the thing he has always wanted to do most. Now he has finally done it.

Surrounding the model of the boat less than one meter in length, Yu Xiaotian carefully checked and sorted out the sails on the ship. After making sure that there was no problem with the ship, he returned to the bedroom to rest.

It means that when Xiaotian returned to the bedroom, he found that the light was still on in the bedroom at this time. Zhao Si, who followed him, had been yawning for a long time and walked a little.

Yu Xiaotian then asked, "Zhao Si, how many days is it now?"

Zhao Si yawned and replied, "It's been three days since I went back to the big house, and it's going to be the fourth round. The big house has stayed up so late every day these days. The brothers all feel that it's not a way for the big house to go on like this. If it goes on like this, I'm afraid the big head's body can't stand it!

Just now, my wife quietly came to the front to see you. Seeing that you were still busy, she told the little one to persuade the big man to rest early and not to ruin his body!

The little one wanted to say it, but the big one drove the little one out, and the little one couldn't help it! I can only stay outside the door!

Madam hasn't slept yet. Even if you don't care about yourself, at least you should feel sorry for your wife! Mrs. Tiantian has been accompanying the big leader until now, and she can't stand it for a long time!"

Yu Xiaotian knew that it was now in the early morning. These days, he is busy making this model of the dhow every night, and almost every night he has to work until about four times to rest. Lan'er and Xiu'er are also waiting to serve him almost every night after washing. Just sleep.

Thinking of this, Yu Xiaotian was moved. Men in this era are really too happy. Most people's wives are very virtuous. If their husbands don't sleep, they have to wait to accompany them all the time. Lan'er is now his wife, but she still hasn't changed at all and serves him carefully.

And in addition to the days of marriage, he accompanied her. In the following days, he either ran around or worked in the front until midnight and rarely paid much attention to Lan'er's situation. Even when he got married, he had to deal with many guests every day and went back dizzy. In fact, he really accompanied Lan'er well. Very little time.

Yu Xiaotian felt a sense of guilt, so he patted Zhao Si on the shoulder and said, "Okay! Go to bed. You guys have been staying up late with me every day these days. I think you are about to be floating! I'll go to bed early in the future! Don't be talky!"

Zhao Siqi laughed and made up his position to bow to Yu Xiaotian. He turned around and ran back to the residence of their personal guards in the front yard, while Yu Xiaotian took a deep breath and walked to Lan'er's bedroom.

The candlelight in the bedroom is still on. Lan'er sat in the chair and sewed a dress under the candlelight. You don't need to look at it. She is still sewing new clothes for Yu Xiaotian. After Yu Xiaotian rescued her from the Jiang family, Lan'er took on the sewing of all of Yu Xiaotian's clothes, basically from head to toe all year round. She prepared the clothes for Yu Xiaotian early.

As long as Yu Xiaotian needs it, he will have new clothes to wear at any time. Thinking that when he first came, there was only a pair of shorts left all over his body, and now he feels very happy.

Next to the small table at the door of the bedroom, Xiuer has been sitting on a small chair and lying on the small table and falling asleep. After all, Xiuer is not very old and can't stay up late. At this time, she lies on the table and is sleeping heavily. Unexpectedly, a little saliva flowed from the corners of her mouth, and a bright line appears under the candlelight.

When Yu Xiaotian opened the door, Xiuer was not woken up and was still asleep. Lan'er was obviously a little unable to hold it at this time. She held the sewn clothes in one hand and couldn't help yawning with a small hand on her mouth, which made Yu Xiaotian a little funny.

"Big brother is back! Xiuer, wake up quickly. Big brother is back! Hurry up and prepare the face water!" Lan'er heard the sound of the door and looked up to see Yu Xiaotian, who was raising his legs and walking into the room. She quickly put down the work in her hand, stood up and greeted Yu Xiaotian, and shouted at Xiuer, who was still asleep at the door.

And although they are married, Lan'er still habitually calls Yu Xiaotian the eldest brother, and does not change his name to his father-in-law. Yu Xiaotian is also used to calling him like this, so neither of them did they change their words.

On the contrary, Xiuer is a little unaccustomed to Xiaotian because she belongs to a maid. Is she old? He always feels old when he calls him so, so he privately asked Xiuer to call him the head of the family, which is different from Lan'er.

Xiuer in her sleep heard Lan's cry, woke up and wanted to get up quickly, but because her body was not coordinated and her legs were stiff, she fell down as soon as she stood up.

"All right! Xiuer, don't have to be busy. Go and have a rest. I've washed my face in front just now! I've kept you waiting!" Yu Xiaotian said with a smile to Xiuer, who was trying to stand up.

At this time, Xiuer realized that the corners of her mouth were a little cold. She stretched out her hand and found that she had drooled a lot. Suddenly, her pretty face turned red. She quickly stood up again and bowed to Xiaotian and said with a red face: "The owner is back! The maidservant fell asleep unconsciously just now, and I hope the lady in charge can forgive me! The maidservant is going to wash the master's feet!"

Yu Xiaotian waved to Xiu'er to bring water, walked slowly to Lan'er's side, reached out and took Lan'er's little hand, stroked and said, "Lan'er, it's really difficult for you to follow me! Either I'm not by your side or stay up late every day, so that you can't have a good rest and wait for me like this every day!

If I come back late in the future, you don't have to wait for me! Look at you, the light is not good at night, and you still sit here to make clothes for me. After a long time, my eyes will also go bad!"

Lan'er snuggled in the arms of Xiaotian and said quietly, "Brother Yu, don't say that. Lan'er can meet you. It's the creation of Lan'er's previous life!

I know that you are a person who does great things and can't stay by my side every day. I won't blame you! I just see you so busy every day, but I can't help you at all. I really feel sorry for you!

Now that we have such a big family business, Brother Yu should be satisfied. Don't be so busy in the future. When it's time to rest, take a rest! If your body goes bad, what should Lan'er do?

Yu Xiaotian smiled bitterly and shook his head and said, "Lan'er, you're wrong. What we do in this industry is like sailing against the water. If we don't advance, we will retreat! At the beginning, Zhang Hu was a good example. He satisfied himself with the status quo, but as a result, he made his subordinates feel disafflicated and ended up being hanged by me!

Although our plate is not small now, we are nothing compared with those bigwigs. If I am satisfied now, sooner or later, I will follow in the footsteps of Zhang Hu!

There are many other things that I can't tell you. The world will be in chaos soon. If we are not prepared before the chaos, we will be destroyed at that time. I don't know what kind of end we will end up!

So I can't stop, and I dare not stop! I hope you can understand what I mean. Once we set foot on this road, it is a road of no return, and we have to turn back or stop!"

Lan'er nodded as if he didn't understand and said, "Big brother's words are always so profound that Lan'er doesn't understand! But Lan'er knew that what the eldest brother did was right! Since the eldest brother said so, Lan'er won't persuade you! But I also hope that the eldest brother can cherish his body. Don't be too tired!"

Yu Xiaotian pinched Lan'er's sharp chin, raised her pretty face, looked at Lan'er's sudden kiss on her little mouth, and smiled, "Don't worry, I will pay attention to it in the future! It's getting late! I think we'd better have a good rest!"

Lan'er heard that Yu Xiaotian's words contained another meaning, and her heart fluttered slightly and whispered to Xiaotian with a little embarrassment.

Yu Xiaotian looked up to the sky and sighed, picked up Lan'er, put Lan'er in **, and pretended to be angry and said, "In this case, you still flirt with me and don't have to rest early. It's really time to fight! Go to bed quickly! Don't stay up late these days! I found out that I stayed up late again, and I can't serve you at home!"

Lan'er nodded regretfully and agreed, pushing Yu Xiaotian and said, "Brother, let's go to sleep in Xiuer's room these two days!" Lan'er can't serve the eldest brother!"

Yu Xiaotian was waiting to refuse. At this time, Xiuer came in with a basin of hot water to serve Yu Xiaotian to soak his feet.

Yu Xiaotian had to shut up, because during this period, he found that Xiuer, a girl, was also a good person, doing things in a manner, never competed for favor, and was also gentle and considerate. She knew how to advance and retreat, and got along well with others.

Even Liu Laoliu and Liu Wang, who were more hostile to her at the beginning, saw that Xiuer was beautiful and was afraid that Xiuer would compete with Lan'er for favor, but after this period of time, they also changed their attitude towards her and took the initiative to say good words to her.

So Yu Xiaotian also likes Xiuer very much now, but since he and Lan'er got married, in order to take care of Lan'er's mood, he stayed here more often on Lan'er and rarely stayed with Xiu'er when he was on the island.

In fact, he also knows that Xiuer also hopes to be favored by him. He does not rest. Xiuer is actually the same as Lan'er, waiting for him to come back every day, silently serving him after washing, and then closing the door and leaving. This will certainly be very uncomfortable.

So he sighed slightly, touched Lan'er's little face, smiled, and said to Lan'er, "In that case, that's all right! Have a good rest! Don't touch cold water these days, and don't eat ice porridge! It's easy to hurt!"

Lan'er gave Yu Xiaotian a playful smile, stretched out her tongue and agreed, and winked at Xiuer standing behind Yu Xiaotian.

Xiuer immediately blushed, but her face still showed joy...

(Today, I saw the reward of my old friend Hulu and Snoring brothers again! Of course, I have to say thank you! Ha ha!)
