Chapter 436 Steamboat, Armored Ship, Robert Fulton!
He even hopes that one day he can fly an all-metal steam engine yacht and roam the oceans with his mother-in-law and children. Today, he seems to see the hope of success.
Thinking about the beautiful yacht, my mother-in-law was wearing an exposed and three-point style, revealing their hot figure and clear skin, while she, with a pair of panties, posed as a bodybuilder, holding a bottle of oil in her hand, with the most feminine and most magnetic voice. He asked, "Miss, do you need to apply oil?"
"Mother, this is called life..." Liang Pengfei, who was full of silver in his mind, looked at the steam engine armor ship approaching and closer, and almost burst into tears.
The two half-year-year-sized children, Zhang Baozai and Xiao Sidangdong, have been dumbfounded, staring at the ships that were coming with thick smoke. Even the little Si Dangdong didn't even notice the water on his white shirt.
"This must be God's masterpiece!" Maria resolutely drew a cross on her full chest and prayed devoutly. At this moment, the religious fanatic regained her true colors. Pan Bingjie next to her rolled her eyes at the foreign girl: "It's my husband's suggestion that he appeared. You guys, why do everything have to do with your Western gods?"
"Dear Jie, if it hadn't been for God's guidance, how could our dear husband find such an outstanding talent in the West to design and build? And me..." Maria raised her eyebrows with a pale face: "If it hadn't been for God's guidance, how could I have come to the East and married him?"
"Okay, okay, stop it. Be quiet. There are so many outsiders here. Do you want others to make fun of your husband's strict governance?" Shi Xianggu angrily interrupted the nutritionless argument between the two girls. A pair of apricot eyes stared at the ship emerging from the sea in front of her. The brilliance on her face was unbearable, as if the female pirate saw the fat sheep again and was ready to do it hard.
Pan Bingjie secretly spit out her tongue and stared at Maria. It meant to clean you up later, but Maria raised her eyebrows proudly, meaning that she got a game today. Not far away, Boss Pan heard the whispering quarrel of the three little girls here, and almost sandwiched the cigarette in his hand into two fingers. He quickly guided the people around him to pay attention to the boats that were getting closer and closer, but he was wondering whether to let his devout Buddhist mother-in-law teach her daughter after returning home. Two female tricks, so that even a Xiyi ghost woman can't quarrel,
--------------------
"Son, what the hell is that? There is no sail and no pulp. Isn't there a cow pulling in it? Liang's official finally came to his senses, pulled his son who was very excited beside him, and asked in a low voice.
"Dad, that's an iron armored ship, a ship made of iron." Liang Pengfei's answer shocked the official Liang: "Son, aren't you crazy? Shipbuilding with iron? Aren't you afraid of sinking? You are a prodigal son!"
"...Dad, it's really time to sink. You see, it's all here from Crab King Island. Do you think it can sink?" Liang Pengfei was speechless to his father who didn't understand new things for a long time.
"Qiyin's skills, nothing more than that, nothing more..." Zhao Yi's old ruffian was still shaking his head and disdainful there. Liang Pengfei's teeth were itchy. The old man was just ugly. Now he was a little better, and he began to show off again. Who is he?
When the ships were moored at the dock, almost all the people who were eligible to attend the ceremony suddenly crowded to the dock and cast their eyes on the iron armored ship.
is not big, the length is not more than 15 meters at most, and the width is only five meters in the widest place. There is no mast on it, only a chimney painted black standing there, still snoring and choking smoke.
On the water, there is no equipment that can be seen what it uses to drive. Only Liang Pengfei knows that this slow armored ship uses a spiral slurry. However, in addition to the shell and some parts of the ironclad ship, most of the other components are still made of wood, such as the deck, the internal bulkhead, and many structures inside, which are still designed according to the sailboat.
Nevertheless, the large steam engine with its black and hard hull and the iron black towering at the back of the ship, spewing white vapor and smoke, with a sense of heavy metal rhythm, is enough to shock everyone to the extreme.
"How can this device be used to sail? ...God, iron armored ship, I don't know if such an iron armored ship can fight against the enemy." The eyes of the official Liang were a little red. If Liang Pengfei hadn't stopped him in time, the old pirate might have come into close contact with the hot steam engine.
"It's not possible now. It's just a ship. It's good to drive here from Crab King Island. Don't expect to fight with it." Next to him, a proud and excited young expert on the ship stood up and categorically rejected Liang's fantasy.
"Mr. Robert, it's great that you can drive this ship in person. It's been five and a half months since we last met. I thought it would take a long time, but I didn't expect that you let these ships appear on the sea at this time." Liang Pengfei greeted him with a smile and patted the Westerner who was not much older than him affectionately.
"Gentlemen, please give me a grand introduction. This is the president of the Steam Ship Research Institute, Dear Robert. Mr. Fulton." Liang Peng Feixuan introduced this Westerner who was not over 30 years old, but his face was already full of thick beard, wrinkles, and his chestnut hair was already mixed with silver silk.
"You mean that this armored ship was made by this guy?" Liang Daguan looked up and down in disbelief.
"It's not me, it's a lot of people. We are an excellent... team." After Robert explained a sentence in stammering Chinese, he seemed to feel that his Chinese was really not up to standard, so he continued to say to Liang Pengfei in English. We still can't solve many problems. This armored ship can't even resist the ten-level wind and waves.
"It doesn't matter. As long as you do it, you can find a way to make it more solid and bigger. That's our goal. I'm very optimistic about you. From the first day I saw you, I knew that you had a ship that could run without using natural forces. The ambition to come. Liang Pengfei patted the young man who looked a little short and thin, and his heart was as happy as countless roses. Of course, he was not a glass, but at this moment, his good impression of Robert was indeed full.
--------------------
This person was recruited by Liang Pengfei's subordinates from England. It is said that this guy and the British inventor, James, who made the first steam engine of practical value. Watt is a very good friend. This guy always wants to tempt Watt to use the steam engine to apply to the ship.
However, James. Watt still seems to be hesitating and is not very interested in investing in this kind of steam engine ship. However, Liang Pengfei was sent to the United Kingdom, and the person who specializes in recruiting talents will naturally not let Wart go of the boss. However, Watt is unwilling to leave the United Kingdom. After all, he has become famous now and has a huge industry.
However, look at the generous face of these Orientals, James. Watt recommended Robert to Liang Pengfei's personnel sent to the West. Mr. Fulton, so, after hearing about the mysterious East, there is a powerful king who is very interested in these new technologies, and as long as he can be convinced, the project will get rich investment.
After Watt's persuasion and the temptation of the expatriate, with a trace of hesitation and uneasiness, with curiosity and yearning for the ancient and mysterious East, Robert. Fulton came to the East.
Hearing that his subordinates actually took in the bully figure of the steamship, Liang Pengfei was so happy that he almost fell into a coma and met Robert. Fulton, after an in-depth conversation, Liang Pengfei confirmed that this was the great man in history, so with a large amount of money, a large number of technicians desperately stuffed the Western scientist, and even generously transferred the maintenance terminal on Crab King Island to him.
However, his generosity was exchanged for Robert. Fulton worked hard and researched, and Liang Pengfei directly surpassed Ming Lun to Robert. Fulton elaborated on the propulsion system of replacing the Ming wheel with propeller. With Liang Pengfei, a shameless traveler, guiding and giving advice from the side, Robert. In addition to his sincere admiration for the oriental wise man, Fulton worked harder and night, and finally developed a steam-powered ship a year earlier than history.
Of course, in history, he spent a lot of time looking for investors, and now, behind him is a generous and generous Liang Pengfei. Naturally, the work is smooth to the heinous, so that he can be successfully completed.
"But if you hadn't given me those advanced ideas and opinions, and your ideas like a divine pen, I'm afraid it would be difficult for me to complete such a masterpiece in such a short time. Its glory should belong to us and belong to our collective, My Excellency the Head of State." Robert gave a deep salute to Liang Pengfei to express his inner reverence and gratitude.
