As a lord, I was forced to farm

Chapter 705 Henghai No.

After arriving in Suling County, Wang Zhenyun was influenced by some unknown factor, but she actually took the initiative to solve some minor problems on the ice body armor for the county. Moreover, with the inspiration from the ice body armor, she created the rattan wood body armor and the black earth body armor, two defensive magic weapons of the highest level, which could reach the middle grade of earth level.

The most important thing is that Wang Zhenyun did not keep the core soul carving skills of these two body armors for herself. She took the initiative to offer them to Su Ling. "The county lady has been kind to me, and Su Ling has been open-hearted to me. He has given me the soul carving skills of the county's magic weapons, so I should naturally do the same... Moreover, the Fujimu body armor and the Xuantu body armor also used the soul carving skills of the Hanbing body armor. It is reasonable for me to give them to her."

Wang Zhenyun was willing to share her things, and the first person to benefit was naturally the weapon refiner Bai Lifei. Therefore, he had great respect for this young woman who came from nowhere.

Bai Lifei once imagined building a flying boat, while Wang Zhenyun had already started to refine a flying car that could travel in the air. The two of them had similar aspirations, so they often got together to exchange their experiences in refining weapons.

……

When Jiang Ran and Wu Yun entered the boat shop, the first person they noticed was Ye Cheng, the person in charge.

In the open field, the first thing Jiang Ran saw was some scattered ship wreckage, which was the Hengjiang that was destroyed by the waves. At this time, several guys were picking out usable wood and iron blocks from the ruins under the scorching sun.

"Greetings, Her Majesty the County Lord!" Ye Cheng was surprised by Jiang Ran's arrival.

"I heard that the Henghai had sunk, so I came to take a look."

Hearing this, Ye Cheng looked bitter. As the head of the shipyard, he had built the Henghai from scratch. He had been on duty all day and all night, spending a lot of effort. Now that the big ship was sinking, he felt heartbroken.

“How many ships are still able to work now?”

Ye Cheng: "Your Excellency, seven small fishing boats and two medium-sized fishing boats."

Naturally, there is more than one ship called Henghai in Suling County, but these ships are much more fragile than the Henghai. They have almost no ability to resist the attacks of the underwater monsters. They can only fish in the waters near Suyuan and cannot go out to the open sea, let alone fish for red-scaled fish near Huoluoshi Island.

The sound of heavy iron hammering coming from deep inside the shipyard interrupted Jiang Ran's contemplation. She stepped into the shipyard and glanced at some large equipment. "Half a year ago, the Ministry of Revenue invested at least 50,000 spirit crystals and countless manpower and materials in the shipyard. How is Henghai No. 2 doing now?"

The investment of 50,000 spirit crystals is not enough for refining a large magical weapon, but the main materials for building the Suling sailboat come from the iron birch trees in Wulian Qingshan and the Xuanhan iron in Zhenyuan Town.

The materials are basically all available in the territory. Fifty thousand spirit crystals are not a lot, but after half a year, Jiang Ran should be able to see something useful.

"My lady, please have some tea first." Ye Cheng respectfully poured a cup of tea for Jiang Ran.

Jiang Ran nodded and motioned Ye Cheng to sit next to her.

"I'm not afraid of being blamed by the county lady. Although I'm the head of the shipyard, I can only focus on the accounts, personnel arrangements and some miscellaneous matters. I'm not as clear about how to build a ship as the shipwright masters and the Bai and Wang refiners. The two refiners are in the refinery room. I'll invite them over now."

As soon as Ye Cheng finished speaking, Bai and Wang, who had heard that Jiang Ran had arrived at the boat shop, straightened their clothes and hurried over to greet her.

Bai Lifei's figure is now a little lean, and he has become very mature, with a bit of the demeanor of a master of refining. His pair of dark brown eyes began to light up as soon as he saw Jiang Ran, as if he saw golden coins glowing. I don't know if it was Jiang Ran's illusion, she just felt that Bai Lifei's voice was full of flattery, "Forgive us, forgive us, we are late, County Lord, I just heard what Manager Ye Cheng said, I will take you to see Henghai Erhai now."

Jiang Ran was slightly stunned, and Wu Yun was also surprised, "When was Henghai No. 2 built? Ye Cheng, we talked for so long just now, why didn't you tell us?"

With doubts, Jiang Ran and others followed Bai Lifei to a huge open roof.

The setup of this convertible is relatively simple, with a roof supported by ten thick tree pillars and a drainage ditch dug next to it. The entire convertible is simple and crude, and its only purpose is to provide shade and shelter from rain without accumulating water and damaging the wood.

The open top contained some measuring tools and wood, but the boat was not inside - because there was no room.

"Oh my God...what a huge ship! It's like a giant beast pressing down on our heads...it's so oppressive..." Chun Ya, who was following Jiang Ran, lost her voice for a moment, her eyes blank, and she couldn't help but scream in shock.

A huge shadow pressed down. Standing on the ground and looking up, Wu Yun felt as if he was a tiny ant facing a majestic fortress.

The ship's exterior lines are cool and smooth, the bow breaking through the waves is like a long sword tilted up and ready to be launched, and the mast is so high that it pierces the sky. It is hard to imagine the magnificent scene when it is sailing on the sea with the flag fluttering in the wind.

Compared with Henghai No. 1, Henghai No. 2 is obviously more intimidating in appearance.

However, this is just the initial form of Henghai No. 2!

Jiang Ran narrowed her eyes slightly, her heart was filled with ripples, and she was quite surprised. She had never thought that a shipyard in a small county-level territory could achieve such a level.

"Yes, Henghai No. 2 is only half assembled, and there are still many parts that have not been put on." Bai Lifei was very excited when talking about this ship.

"My Lord, I have modified the wind-fixing rudder. I have gathered a hundred wind spirit stones together and refined them into four wind-controlling rudders, which control the bow, stern and flanks respectively. There are no longer dozens of them scattered around, requiring a dozen sailors to operate them together. The modified wind-controlling rudders can control the sea breeze, which will greatly increase the speed of the sea-crossing ship..."

"There are also cannons. The previous cannons were just for show. They made a loud noise but had little power. They could only scare away some timid monsters. When facing fiercer underwater monsters, we could only send monks who were good at swimming to drive them away. But now it's different..."

He kept praising the Henghai with a high tone, which excited Wu Yun, Chun Ya and others. Jiang Ran remained silent. She keenly felt that Bai Lifei's excitement was a little unnatural, as if he was painting a rosy picture for her.

Bai Lifei kept talking, and suddenly he felt regretful, "This time we chose the better quality iron birch, which is indeed much stronger, but unfortunately, if we encounter those ferocious sea beasts the day before yesterday, the Henghai may still be unable to withstand it... If only we had the Huanjin Tuling Liquid, it would be better?"

After saying this, Bai Lifei suddenly became quiet and looked at Jiang Ran with one eye. The latter's expression did not change. Her long crow-feather eyelashes pressed down lightly, and her eyes were as sharp as seeing through fire, penetrating the clouds and mist, which made him feel a little guilty.

Wu Yun was a little curious about his sudden pause, "What is Huanjin Tulingye? With this thing, our ship doesn't have to be afraid of those beasts on the seabed?"
