Traveling through history leaving a name

Chapter 45 Launching
"Is Mr. Ruixiang in Yuyang City? I'm planning to visit." Cao Pi asked Li Bai.

"My teacher went to Quanzhou this morning, and he won't be back until a few days later." Li Bai explained.

As the end of the year approached, Quanzhou Shipyard finally built the first [-]-ton galleon. Zhang Qingfeng naturally needed to preside over the launching ceremony and test the performance of the galleon.

"That's really unfortunate. Mr. Ruixiang left as soon as we arrived. It seems that we have to wait a few days before visiting." Hearing Li Bai's words, Cao Pi said regretfully.

After the dinner, Li Bai arranged for Cao Pi and his party to stay at the No. [-] Restaurant in Yuyang.

It is said that it is a restaurant, but in fact it is similar to the hotel of later generations, it is a place for people to stay.

"This is really extravagant. Even the floor is made of porcelain, the windows are all glazed, and there's such a big glazed mirror that shows every detail of the person. Tsk tsk, it's so extravagant."

In the restaurant, Cao Pi looked at the decoration in the room, not only amazed.

Yuyang No. [-] Restaurant, the interior decoration is extremely luxurious, the floor is paved with tiles, the windows are made of glass windows, and there is a bathroom with running water and flush toilets.

In addition, there are shower facilities, all designed by Zhang Qingfeng.

In order to achieve these effects, several storage tanks were built on the top of the restaurant.

The largest reservoir mainly supplies the tap water of the restaurant.

The small storage tank is for storing hot water. There is a boiler near the downstairs, which is specially used to heat hot water. After the water is boiled, the steam pump above will pump the hot water to the small storage tank on the roof for storage. To provide hot water supply for the whole building.

In addition, there is heating in the restaurant in winter, which is very luxurious.

When Cao Pi arrived, someone naturally taught him how to use the things in the hotel.

In the evening, Cao Pi took a beautiful bath with hot water, then he brushed his teeth with a toothbrush, put on the new pajamas prepared by the hotel, and finally leaned back on the soft sofa, enjoying the indescribable enjoyment.

"This is more comfortable than living in the palace!" Cao Pi couldn't help but sigh.

This restaurant has not yet opened, but Cao Pi can already imagine that once the restaurant opens, there may be countless people staying.

There are more than 280 rooms in this restaurant. Each room costs a minimum of 300 yuan a day, and expensive rooms can cost thousands of dollars. If it is full, it is not a problem to earn [-] yuan or [-] million yuan a day. This is not counting other things. consumption.

In fact, since Zhang Qingfeng built the restaurant, he had no doubts about whether so many rooms could be filled.

There are more than 40 people in Yuyang City, including countless wealthy people. The most important thing is that there are hundreds of businessmen who come to Yuyang City every day. The cost of building the building can be recovered in a few years, and it will be profitable afterwards.

For Zhang Qingfeng, at present, the cost of building a building is still too expensive, mainly because the cost of raw materials is too high.

However, I believe that as time goes by, the cost of raw materials will become lower and lower, and it may only cost one to two hundred million to build such a building.

After Cao Pi came to Yuyang City, accompanied by Li Bai, he went to Yuyang Academy outside the city the next day, and met the woman he had been thinking about day and night.

"Sister Liu, long time no see." Cao Pi greeted Liu Rushi with bright eyes.

"Why are you here?" Seeing Cao Pi, Liu Ru was very surprised.

"I came here to see you." Cao Pi replied.

Hearing Cao Pi's words, Liu Rushi rolled his eyes and said, "I still have to teach students, so I can't entertain you."

"It's okay, I'll listen to you in your class, and I promise not to disturb you." Cao Pi said with a smile.

Seeing Cao Pi's faceless face, Liu Rushi had no choice but to let him go.

Quanzhou Shipyard.

In a huge shipyard, all the frames built during shipbuilding have been removed, leaving the lonely hull in the shipyard.

At this time, Zhang Qingfeng and a group of shipbuilders are now on the high ground on the shore of the dock.

"Sir, it's almost time, we can go into the water." The person in charge of the shipyard said to Zhang Qingfeng.

"Then let's start, open the gate and release the water." Zhang Qingfeng nodded, and then ordered.

Following Zhang Qingfeng's order, the gate of the dock near the sea was slowly opened by the steam engine.

The next moment, countless seawater began to pour into the dock crazily.

Countless people waited, watching more and more seawater in the dock, and soon, the seawater gently supported the entire big ship.

Half an hour later, the entire dock was completely filled with sea water, and the water level in the dock began to be level with the sea surface. The large ship that thousands of people spent more than half a year to build was completely floating on the water.

"Pull the boat out."

Zhang Qingfeng issued a second order.

With this order, both sides of the dock.Countless people began to pull the rope.

With the pulling of the rope, the big ship slowly left the dock.

Whoa whoa whoa!
oooooooo!
Oh oh oh!
When the boat finally entered the sea, countless people cheered, many jumped and shouted, extremely excited.

"Sir, captain Deng Shichang and mate Zheng Chenggong have requested sea trials, please allow."

Not long after, two young men ran over and saluted Zhang Qingfeng.

"Season trial is allowed." Zhang Qingfeng nodded in agreement.

Following Zhang Qingfeng's nod, soon, countless sailors and crew members began to board the ship.

On the pier, many people watched as the Galen ship set sail, gradually left the shipyard, and sailed towards the sea until it disappeared from sight.

In fact, as the designer of the Galen ship, Zhang Qingfeng wanted to participate in the sea trial with him, but many people were worried about his safety, so he could only compromise if he didn't allow him to board the ship.

The Galen ship left in the morning and returned to the pier in the afternoon, which made countless people cheer, and the first sea trial of the sea ship was a complete success.

In the evening, Zhang Qingfeng hosted a banquet for the meritorious sailors, crew members and shipbuilders, and many of them got very drunk.

The Galen ship has passed the first sea trial, and there will be many more sea trials to come. All aspects of the voyage data need to be summarized, but Zhang Qingfeng does not need to worry about this aspect. He has already given all the knowledge he knows to his students.

Two days later, the Galen's sea trials again, this time for several days at sea.

Because of the compass and sextant, Zhang Qingfeng was not worried that the ship would lose its way in the vast sea.

After presiding over the launching ceremony of the sea boat, Zhang Qingfeng brought Cai Wenji back to Yuyang City again.

This time, Zhang Qingfeng also met Cao Pi, Cao Cao's son, for the first time.

"Mr. Ruixiang, I have admired your name for a long time."

As soon as Zhang Qingfeng returned to Yuyang City, he received a request from Cao Pi to visit. When the two met, before Zhang Qingfeng could speak first, Cao Pi took the initiative to say hello.

"It's my honor to visit Mr. Cao, please sit down." Zhang Qingfeng beckoned Cao Pi to sit down.

At this time, Cai Wenji came over with a teapot and poured them a cup of tea.

"Aunt Cai, you're here too." Cao Pi was surprised to see Cai Wenji.

"Well, I'm Mr.'s secretary now." Cai Wenji explained generously.

Shuzuo means clerical assistant, equivalent to a secretary.
