The ancestor of all monsters in Shushan

Shi Feiyang spent more than six months building the first large ship in Jinting Mountain.

The first is the overall design of the ship, which is a hundred feet long and made of thousand-year-old crystal jade wood. After the wood has been refined by the real fire of the sun with immortal methods, the outside is three inches thick and crystal clear, like jade, and the inside is white like clouds, faintly showing A series of talismans.

The keel of the ship is made of the skeleton of a poisonous dragon that was eaten by cold cockroaches in the past. It is exactly 108 feet long. The dragon's head and tail are tilted forward and backward. They are cast from metal and painted with colorful paint. They show their teeth and claws. Wei, the ribs are connected with the crystal jade wood outside by using Xinjin essence mixed with Jiamu essence between the bones.

Geng metal is sharp, Xin metal is flexible, metal and wood are connected, and Jia wood essence serves as a bridge, which can make it "grow" together with the wood outside, making the whole ship integrated.

In terms of power, four large sails are used:

The spring sail is purified with the essence of wood and embroidered with two golden symbols of the Beginning of Spring and the Vernal Equinox to generate gentle wind;
Xia Fan was purified with the essence of fire, and embroidered with two golden symbols of Beginning of Summer and Summer Solstice to generate fumigating wind;
The autumn sail is purified with the essence of gold, and embroidered with two golden symbols of the Beginning of Autumn and the Autumnal Equinox to create a golden wind;
The winter sail is purified with water essence and embroidered with two golden symbols of Beginning of Winter and Winter Solstice to bring out the new wind.

These four large sails have different wind characteristics, and they all operate on a platform cast by the earth essence. The earth element balances the four phenomena, and can be adjusted according to the captain's requirements, weather conditions, sea conditions, etc. Calculate by yourself how to raise the sail and how much wind each sail generates.

This thing was invented by Shi Feiyang, and it can theoretically travel in any weather.

The remaining rudders, anchors, cables, wheels, etc. were all studied and designed by Shi Feiyang and the craftsmen, and were made by the demon soldiers and tested on the ship. If they didn't work, they would be modified on site.

If a mortal were to build a ship, the preliminary preparation work alone would take many years, and letting the wood dry would take years and months. However, there is no need to wait here in Shi Feiyang. The things that need to be dried are let the fairies who are good at refining fire spread the fire evenly and slowly. Spray it out and it will dry in half a day. If you need air drying, look for one that can blow air. If you need to dry in the shade, look for one that can control water...

While saving a lot of time, it also increases the tolerance for trial and error. After all, no matter how big the wood is, you can find a big demon to hold it. If one doesn't work, you can find two, and if two don't work, you can find three.

There is a giant octopus spirit with seven or eight thousand years of Taoism. Its two tentacles are spread out and are a hundred feet long.

His body is lying on the cliff above the shipyard. He grabs the mountain with two tentacles and stretches out six claws to carry it. He can roll up four or five giant trees of dozens of feet with one claw, and a large piece of iron that is more than two feet high. He could easily pick up the anchor and place it securely at the designated location according to the instructions of the master craftsman.

After the hull is built, the selected demon soldiers will work together to lift it up and gently put it into the water. First, it will be driven out for a trial trip to make sure that everything is good, and then it will be driven back to continue to add other things.

The fresh water storage system, sewage treatment system, lighting system, meal processing system...all kinds of functionalities have been installed, and various detailed decorations will follow.

Whether they are building houses or boats, the goblins have the same style of "silly, big and rough". The craftsmen stroked the jade railings and kept sighing, talking privately: "It's a pity that such good wood and such a big ship are like this now." Not worthy of the fairy atmosphere..."

Shi Feiyang heard it and thought deeply.

What the fairies made is like building blocks put together by giants. They use the best materials to make them rough and clumsy. The real fairy atmosphere should be grand when viewed from a distance and detailed when viewed up close.

He sent some demon soldiers to the craftsmen and followed their instructions to decorate the ship. For example, the dragon head and tail were carefully carved to make them more lifelike, patterns were added to the railings, and dragon scales were refined from crystal jade wood and attached to the side of the ship. The outside can be opened and closed, and there are many drainage holes hidden inside. If the water is clear, it will be drained away from here.

These craftsmen asked the demon soldiers to make the "dragon scales" into a certain arc, which can withstand arrow shooting and the collision of enemy ships, and also prevent "anchoring" such as barnacles.

Shi Feiyang didn't find it cumbersome. Taking this opportunity, he could also learn more about related knowledge.

In the storage compartment inside the ship, Shi Feiyang used a space-distorting array inside to make the internal space larger, allowing half of the items to be stored.

Due to the abundant manpower and material resources, even with so many extra details, it still only took half a year to completely build this ship!

Shi Feiyang named the ship Jade Dragon. From a distance, the ship really seemed like a jade dragon lying on the water.

Everything is difficult at the beginning. With this first ship as a prototype, Shi Feiyang asked the craftsmen and demon soldiers to build two more ships using the same method.

However, since there were no bones of the Baizhang Poison Dragon, two more were replaced by those of the sea loach.

The body of the sea loach is slender, and it is very common to have one that is more than 100 feet long. However, because it is too thin and the bones are not strong enough, we built two 80-foot-long ones, named them Golden Loach and Silver Loach respectively.

All three ships were built, and the fleet was owned by Yuguo. Shi Feiyang asked Yuan Hua to send three captains to sail the ships. A general officer led 300 soldiers to escort them, and a large number of others were sent to do business. of.

Shi Feiyang, the general person in charge of business and trade, recognized that it was the extremely unlucky Jiang Dachuan!

This guy went from Hainan Island to Ziyun Palace, from Ziyun Palace to Heisha Island, and then from Heisha Island to Tianwai Sacred Mountain. He had a bumpy journey, narrowly escaped death, relied on everyone to die, and was constantly caught... It is indeed a great destiny to live to this day.

When Shi Feiyang saw that it was him, he quickly did some fortune-telling silently and found that this boy's luck had changed drastically since he met him. His bad luck was gone and everything went smoothly.

On the outside, he looks tall and strong, with a light stubble, but in fact he has a delicate mind, a well-behaved nature, and a calculating mind. Otherwise, he would not have gone through all kinds of hardships. Instead, he has become stronger with each setback, dealing with the Ziyun Palace and the Black Palace. Sand Island and other places get benefits every time.

Because he was originally a businessman, he had been engaged in herbal medicine business in the Evernight City over the years, opened an alchemy building, and hired more than a dozen alchemists to work for him. He lived a very comfortable life and took the initiative to help the government without any reward.

Last year, there was a plague in Xiangshui Sea. Yuan Hua assigned him the errand, and he handled it properly. He eliminated the plague as quickly as possible and saved many dying clams without spending a lot of money. Yuan Hua felt that This person was available, so he was made a minister in charge of medicine.

This time he recommended himself to preside over the trade between the two countries, and Yuan Hua agreed.

To lead a team and govern a country, one can only judge one's performance without caring about one's intentions. There is an old Chinese saying that the emperor would curse three times behind his back.

As long as things can be done and done well, then it can be used. If something goes wrong, there will be legal punishment.

Shi Feiyang listened to his words and watched his actions. After watching for a few days, he found that Jiang Dachuan was really talented. He arranged for the registration of personnel, food, drink and accommodation, inventory of goods, and storage of goods separately...Three ships, all kinds of things, he had done. It is done in an orderly manner, and even if some problems are found, they can be solved quickly and handled properly.

On the winter solstice of that year, the Aurora Fire began to wane. Shi Feiyang stood on the Yulong and left Jinting Mountain loaded with all kinds of heavenly materials and earthly treasures produced by the Tianwai Sacred Mountain. He drove all the way north, passing through three obstacles, and came to Outside the Little Antarctic Sea, go north for more than three thousand miles and reach the Forty-Seven Islands area.

In the future, he will definitely clear these forty-seven islands and use them as a deep outpost of the Tianwai Mountain. It will not only help defend against foreign enemies, but also serve as a transit point for trade between the two countries.

In the Shushan world, the East China Sea is the largest, followed by the South China Sea, the West Sea, and the North Sea is the smallest. The location of the Middle Earth Continent is not at the center of the world, and the junction of the four seas is not a geographical demarcation. The four seas are due to the temperature and salinity of the sea water. , density, etc. are different, the junction point is not on the bisector.

It is about a million miles from Little Antarctica to Hainan Island. Fortunately, the sea conditions in the South China Sea are the mildest among the four seas. Most of the time, it is sunny, cloudless, and the sky and sea are blue. When the sea conditions are at their best, the four large sails are raised at the same time, gathering the wind at full speed, forming a surging power to push the giant ship. The dragon in front cuts through the sea with its claws and fangs, and moves quickly.

Occasionally, tropical hurricanes will appear, and some ships will fly into the sky and escape to the ground. You can detect them in advance and turn the steering wheel to avoid them.

If you don’t want to avoid it, you can also drive directly over. The four large sails will automatically lift and turn to adjust the angle. The golden wind is responsible for breaking the hurricane blowing on the head, and the gentle wind is responsible for spreading the wind along the left and right sides of the hull. The fuming wind offsets the left and right swing of the ship. The force, Shuofeng provides the power, allowing the ship to continue to gallop forward.

The clouds in the sky were like the bottom of a black pot, the hurricane was roaring, and thousands of huge waves were set off, but the giant ship was able to stay steady and move through it as if it were on flat ground. Even standing on the deck, you couldn't feel the strong wind.

Shi Feiyang stood on the boat, watching all the air blowing over being directed elsewhere, and the shaking of the ship's hull being offset. He was extremely satisfied with this invention.

The South China Sea is so big that even the famous Sword Immortal would have to fly for a long time. This ship can be considered fast enough. It took more than two hundred days to reach Tianjin Port. Shi Feiyang practiced "Hesha" twice more on the ship. "Qi Shu", which increased the mana for twenty-four years.

The ship entered the Bohai Sea, and Shi Feiyang went to the capital to see the emperor. The emperor was looking forward to it. If it weren't for the construction of the Snow Mountain Sect and the Qingcheng Sect that was still going on, he would have doubted whether the Imperial Master would come back.

Such a huge ship entered the harbor, attracting people to watch wildly. They had never seen such a huge and beautiful ship. They rushed to tell each other, saying that the imperial master had brought down the ship from the sky, and that everything in it was from the fairy world. s things.

Then, they saw the people on the boat. Most of them looked very strange. Although the people who came this time had been able to cultivate into human form, most of them retained the characteristics of beasts. Some had horns on their heads, some had black scales on their arms, and some had black scales on their arms. Some are over ten feet tall, some have green faces and red hair.

The people were afraid. When Shi Feiyang heard this, he asked the Jin Yiwei to tell everyone that these were the people of the Immortal Kingdom under the Imperial Preceptor. They were just ordinary people like them, and they only needed to treat them with common courtesy. It's easy, don't provoke them intentionally, and don't be overly afraid.

Jiang Dachuan, who was in charge, led the team and followed the eunuch to the designated market between Beijing and Tianjin. It was as big as a town and was surrounded by fences. There were four gates in total. There were archways in front of the gates with the words "Mingyu Fairy Market" written on them.

The goods on the ship were shipped box by box, and each family had its own house. According to the drawings given by Shi Feiyang, Jinyiwei supervised the construction. The land is three acres in size, with two courtyards and a courtyard model. Merchants can live in the backyard. The front yard is open to sell goods.

When the Yuguo people displayed boxes of pearls, corals, batches of crocodile silk, and piles of jade, the people of the Ming Dynasty were dumbfounded.

The eunuchs and Jinyiwei Baihu all rubbed their eyes to confirm that they had seen it correctly. A pearl as big as a fist and a coral tree as tall as a person. This thing can only be found in the sky, and it can never be a thing on earth!

People in the Ming Dynasty also had their own merchant houses selling goods, including porcelain, silk, tea, pens, inks, paper and inkstones.

Before the blue and white porcelain of the Yuan Dynasty, porcelain was an art of fire and earth. It focused on firing and pursued the texture of the porcelain itself. After the blue and white porcelain, it became crude and crazy, and various paintings and colors were as gorgeous as they came. There are even items that have been fired more than a dozen times to show off their skills, becoming more and more fancy.

Most of the people in Yuguo come from different backgrounds, and all the utensils are just functional. They follow the "stupid, stupid" route, but they have never made anything so sophisticated.

This time, all the princesses and princes from various major clans came here. They had a lot of money in their hands. When they saw something good, they asked the price, and then they wanted to buy it.

In Mingyu Xianshi, there is a separate courtyard that is different in shape from the others. It is a two-story building with a rock cellar underneath.

Shi Feiyang opened a bank here and brought in a large amount of dragon coins, gold and silver. Anyone can come here to exchange the two currencies, anchoring one tael of silver to exchange for one Dulong coin.

Many officials and wealthy businessmen from the Ming Dynasty came to visit. Out of curiosity, they exchanged their silver for several dragon coins, played with them, and looked at them again and again.

The people from the bank told them: "This is the Dragon Coin of the Immortal Dynasty. You can buy what you want from us. Keep it with you at all times. It can also warm your essence and condense your qi, soothe your mind and nourish your blood. All evil spirits will not dare to come five steps closer to you." Within this period, ordinary witchcraft curses will not work on you..."

Shi Feiyang refined the dragon coins very delicately. The crystal jade is a specialty of the Tianwai Mountain. The outer layer is as transparent as crystal, and the inner layer is a milky white cloud-like object. When swayed by the sun, it seems to surge like a tide.

Because they came from the Immortal Dynasty of the Imperial Master, these officials and wealthy businessmen all believed in it.

The rich man quickly asked what the maximum denomination was, and learned that it cost one thousand taels of silver to exchange for one Kowloon coin. The bank did not accept banknotes from outside, so he quickly sent his servants home to get the silver.

Anyone who comes in today to visit, the worst one, also gets a Dulong coin and wears it with a red thread on his body to keep safe.

The things of Yuguo are undoubtedly valuable treasures to the people of Mingguo, and some of the things of Mingguo can be sold well to the people of Yuguo.

The Ming Dynasty had thousands of years of inheritance and accumulation. Things were made in a complex and sophisticated way, often with a high level of art and craftsmanship in them.

For example, various embroideries, tapestry techniques, double-sided embroidery, etc. are not available at Tianwai Shenshan.

There is no doubt that the shark silk produced by the sharks is far superior to the silkworm silk from the Middle Earth, and the shark gauze woven into it is also better than the silk and satin from the Middle Earth, but the various patterns embroidered on it are far inferior.

The Sharman princess was eye-opening after seeing all kinds of embroidery: "Why haven't I ever thought of embroidering something on it... The threading of this embroidery is really complicated..."

With her eyesight, she could directly see the direction of each thread, but she felt a little dizzy after seeing so hard, so she bought one piece of all the embroidery she had seen and took it back to study.

There are also tea leaves. There are no real tea trees in Tianwai Shenshan. The so-called tea is made from various flowers and fruits picked and soaked in water.

Because the Tianwai Sacred Mountain is sunny and hot all year round, it is not suitable for the growth of tea trees. Even if it is transplanted, the tea produced will not taste good.

The princes from Yuguo were quickly attracted by the aroma of tea, and saw someone playing with a complete set of tea sets there. The mist of tea was misty, and they fell in love with it. Each of them quickly bought a set and asked the shop owner about it. This is how to drink tea.

In short, what is sold here in Yuguo are almost all raw materials, but the treasures of nature, materials and earth are all rare things in China, while the ones sold in Mingguo are all exquisite and exquisite crafts.

After seeing Yuguo's products, a large number of officials and wealthy businessmen from the Ming Dynasty sighed: "Although these people came from the sky, they are like goblins. Their hometown is rich in products, with pearls and shells everywhere, but they are like barbarians, and they waste all the good things." ”

"Isn't that right? I saw that crystal jade wood. It's such good wood. It's really as crystal as beautiful jade. If it were used to build a palace, wouldn't it be comparable to the Dragon King's Crystal Palace?"

"You don't need to build a palace, just build a big bed, it will also be the Dragon King's crystal bed!"

"Don't use a crystal bed, that's too extravagant. Get some beads and make a rosary, which is better than the seven treasures. When I pray to the Buddha in the future, the Buddha can feel my sincerity even more." (End of this chapter)
