Chapter 967

The ten guns were still quite heavy, and Fang Fang couldn't carry them by himself, so he called two security team members to help him carry them together.

Taking the ten guns, Fang went straight to the smelter and found Lu Fengmei who was instructing the workers in the factory.

When he saw Lu Fengmei, he moved a chair and sat at the factory gate.

The entire smelter is like a big furnace inside, except that the entrance is much cooler because of the wind blowing in.

Fang Fang walked up to Lu Fengmei, jokingly said: "Not bad, I finally have the appearance of a factory manager."

Lu Fengmei sat up from the chair, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and complained: "There is no way, it's too hot in here."

"Old Lu, in fact, my intention is not to let you rush to work on the front line. As long as you can manage this smelter well, nothing else matters." Fang Fang whispered in Lu Fengmei's ear, "Actually, you don't have to work so hard. When a deputy factory manager comes out, many things can be handed over to the deputy factory manager, and you, the factory manager, just need to take care of the overall situation."

"Hey hey, it's yours!" Lu Fengmei smiled at Fang Fang and winked.

"It's about caring about you. What kind of friendship do we have?" Fang Fang patted Lu Fengmei's chest.

Lu Fengmei grinned and said, "I know! Which one of us is with whom!" Seeing the two security guards behind Fang Fang, each carrying a few guns, Lu Fengmei immediately knew that Fang Fang must have a task for herself, "Said Come on, bring these guys here, what do you want me to do?"

"This time I got [-] guns from the English people. Everyone on the island has seen how powerful these guns are. Everyone wants to get more of them." Fang Fang said, "So, just relying on These three hundred guns are far from enough, we have to find a way to make some by ourselves."

"Make muskets?"

Lu Fengmei's eyes began to shine, obviously very interested in the proposal of the equation.

Fang Fang said: "Now we have iron ore and can smelt iron. It shouldn't be difficult to make a few gun barrels, right?"

"Of course this is not difficult. Isn't it just a few iron pipes? What's so special about it? Don't underestimate our current casting technology." Lu Fengmei said proudly.

"Can that make a rifled gun?" Fang asked expectantly.

Lu Fengmei pursed her lips and rested her chin with her hand, "Rifling guns may be a bit difficult. The most difficult thing is how to carve the rifling on the inner wall of the barrel. It is not easy to do this without a lathe."

Equation said: "Whether it is difficult or not, let's try, maybe it will work."

"Try it, anyway, we don't lack iron ore now."

Lu Fengmei said so, but she still had no confidence in her heart. It is not difficult to mold the gun barrel, but the difficulty is the rifling process inside, which is really difficult to do without a lathe.

But in the current situation, you still have to try boldly, no matter how you say it, it’s not a loss, if you can fiddle with it, it’s awesome, even if you fail, there is no loss.

"By the way, make some time to come out, pick a good time tomorrow and go to the boat to see." Fang Fang patted Lu Fengmei on the shoulder.

"We're about to board the boat?" Lu Fengmei's eyebrows danced brightly, and she became excited immediately.

Fang Fang laughed and said, "I've been thinking about it for a long time."

Lu Fengmei shouted: "Up, up, up, this time I must go up!"

……

The blue sea and blue sky, the long wind is thousands of miles away.

Fang Fang brought all the important members of Wan Guo to the sailing warship that was stranded on the beach.

Standing by the side, looking up at this large warship with a height of at least 20 meters, everyone was very excited.

The last time I was so excited was back when I met Roger for the first time. At that time, seeing Roger's sailing merchant ship appearing on the sea of ​​​​Wan Guo, Fang was almost crazy with joy.

Ever since he saw Roger's sailing ship, Fang Fang has always had a dream, that is, when the world can also own such a sailing ship, and with such an ocean-going sailing ship as a guarantee, he can travel in this vast expanse of land. Sea sailing adventure.

Now, after many days, Fang Fang’s long-cherished dream has finally come true, and he owns the first ocean-going sailing ship of IWC.

And this is not an ordinary merchant ship, but a warship that can be equipped with artillery.

"What are you waiting for, go up."

Li Qingman stood beside Fang Fang and smiled knowingly at him.

Fang Fang grinned with a "haha" grin. At this time, he could not wait any longer, and climbed the rope ladder to board the long-dream sailing ship.

After the equation boarded the deck, the others also climbed up one after another.

Boarding the hull, looking at the clean and spacious deck, I felt an indescribable excitement. Under the excitement, Fang Fang no longer cared about his image, put his hands next to his mouth, and let out a few loud groans.

Li Qingman was the second to board the ship, seeing the spacious upper deck, she felt exactly the same as Fang Fang.

“The view from here is amazing!”

Standing at the bow of the boat, Fang Fang found that standing here can not only overlook the sea, but also have a panoramic view of most of the Ten Thousand Islands.

Li Qingman pointed to the bridge and said excitedly: "Let's go there and have a look!"

"Go and have a look."

At this moment, Equation is like a child who got a big toy. Seeing that everything is new in this sailing warship, he can't wait to check every place carefully.

The two then came to the bridge, which is the core of the entire warship.

The bridge is like adding a layer on the deck, so standing on the bridge has a wider view, and you can see the front, rear, left, and right of the entire ship.

The most important rudder wheel to control the direction of the ship is here. As long as the captain turns the rudder wheel, the ship will change direction accordingly.

"This thing feels really good to the touch."

Equation's hands are already on the large rudder wheel. This rudder wheel is almost half the height of a person, but it is larger than the steering wheel of a car.

Because it has been held and turned by the captain for many years, the wood of the rudder wheel has a thin layer of oily sheen, as if it has been covered with pulp.

"Would you like to try it too?" Fang Fang looked at Li Qingman with a smile.

"Okay."

In terms of curiosity, Li Qingman was equally curious about these things.

In the past, she only saw the model of this kind of sailing ship in the museum, and she only boarded Roger's ship to take a look. It was hard to imagine that one day she would be able to personally touch the steering wheel of this kind of sailing ship.

Suddenly, Li Qingman looked at Fang Fang, closed one eye on purpose, and said with a joking smile: "Do you think I look like a pirate now?"

Fang Fang pretended to say: "If there is such a good-looking female pirate, then what kind of consul should I be, and it would be nice to go with you, a female pirate, to be free and easy."

"Cough cough..."

When the two were deeply in love, suddenly two dry coughs came from behind, and looking back, it turned out that Lu Fengmei and Asai Shizi had just arrived at the bridge.

It seemed that the two of them also wanted to come to the bridge for a romance, but unexpectedly, the two couples bumped into each other.

Lu Fengmei said with a smirk: "We haven't heard anything, you continue."
