I am a primitive

After all, installing sails on a ship and using the wind to drive the ship forward is simply common sense for future generations.

As a result, I didn't think of this until now.

How is this not annoying?

After a while, Han Cheng became a little calmer, and he thought of some reasons why he had such a blind spot in his thinking.

First of all, it is affected by the environment in which later generations live.

In later generations, he lived in a large iron boat that was either driven by machines to pump river sand, or ran back and forth on the river, relying on people on both sides of the river to go to the towns downstream of the river to go to the market.

Either they encountered small wooden boats or small iron boats moored at various ferries to ferry people to the opposite bank.

He has never touched a boat with sails in real life.

Another reason is that over the years, the Fire Tribe themselves have loaded the spun linen on a raft and transported it to the Blue Sparrow Tribe.

The Qingque tribe rowed a boat, and they basically didn't have it when they ran long distances along the waterway. In addition, the rivers near the main tribe were narrow, so they didn't need sails.

Under such circumstances, Han Cheng subconsciously didn't think about it.

Now, with the people in the tribe, they went down the river, and because they were in a hurry, they quickly remembered the matter of sailing.

"Stand up the reed mat and support it with something like a stick, don't let it fall down.

If you can't support it, come to two people, hold and lift it with your hands, and carry it with your body.

It should be noted that the person needs to face the direction the wind is blowing. "

Han Cheng said to everyone like this.

In fact, when Han Cheng first started, he wanted the people in the tribe to pull up the cloth and use it as a sail.

It's just that, except for the clothes worn by people and some bandages for emergency situations, there is no extra cloth for Han Cheng to use in this way.

Moreover, even if there is extra cloth, it will not work, because these cloths are made of linen, which is very breathable.

When the wind blows, it will leak through these small holes. Using such cloth as a sail, even if there is a strong wind, it will not push the boat much.

It was precisely because of this realization that Han Cheng didn't let people try it out with linen, but directly developed his brain hole, and made people use reed mats instead of linen to make heinously simple sails.

Hearing Han Cheng's order, everyone present felt strange, wondering what the Son of God meant by asking him to wait for others to do this.

If you want to make the boat sail faster, shouldn't you have people row the boat vigorously and use pennies to punt the boat?

Why is Shenzi not asking people to do these two things now, but asking himself and others to prop up the reed mat?

However, due to the long-term habit and the various deeds of witnessing miracles with the Son of God, these people in the Qingque tribe still did what Han Cheng said.

While doing it, pay attention at the same time, expecting a miracle to happen.

A miracle happened soon.

After the dense reed mats are stretched, the wind blows on the reed mats, and the reed mats lean against the person's body or the stick behind them, forming a thrust.

This power is much stronger than the power of the wind blowing on people and ships before.

Under the urging of such a force, the ship quickly accelerated and moved forward.

The ships that had already set up the reed mats quickly left those ships that had not yet set up the reed mats behind, and distanced themselves.

Seeing such a scene, the eyes of everyone, whether they were sitting on the boat with the reed mats set up or those who were thrown away without the reed mats set up, suddenly lit up.

The Son of God's method is really a good one!

It didn't take any effort at all, just put the reed mat on the boat, and the boat ran so fast!

This is much faster than people paddling vigorously!

More importantly, the speed of people rowing desperately and exhaustingly is not necessarily faster than the speed of the boat at this time!

The Son of God is worthy of being the Son of God!

It doesn't matter if people don't admire it!

Always able to figure out how to use simple tools to make things extraordinarily useful!

Under such admiration full of emotion and mind full of surprise, those people on the boats who did not prop up the reed mats also speeded up one after another, and propped up the reed mats so that the wind would blow the reed mats and take them with them. they run faster...

Sitting on the boat, Han Cheng felt the speed at this time, and finally a smile appeared on his face.

It is more in line with my identity and status as a latecomer to settle the matter lightly like this.

With such smug thoughts, Han Cheng gradually had some other ideas.

The idea is that after I return from the Fire Tribe, I will start to gather the lame and other outstanding carpenters from the tribe, especially those who are very experienced in shipbuilding.

Let them start researching on sailboats and try to make sailboats.

In terms of long-distance sailing capabilities, sailing ships are undoubtedly much more powerful than the current ships in the tribe.

The existing ships in the tribe can run for short distances, but for long-distance travel, they are really lagging behind, and some of them can't keep up with the demand.

In the past, after Han Cheng came to this world, the tribe was very poor and had nothing. Under such circumstances, there was no need to pay attention to it. It was very good to have a bamboo raft.

Later, after lame and others made the wooden boats on the river in his hometown when he was a child according to the things he drew, Han Chengcheng became more satisfied.

However, there is a characteristic of human beings called dissatisfaction.

When you get good, you want better.

For many things, satisfaction is only temporary, and dissatisfaction is the norm.

So now, Han Cheng is not satisfied with the small wooden boats that his tribe already owns, and wants to make sailboats.

This kind of dissatisfaction, generally speaking, has more advantages than disadvantages.

Because of such characteristics, it is not easy for people to be content with the status quo.

No, after achieving some achievements, I have been complacent and lost my aggressiveness.

Without these dissatisfaction, human beings will probably always live in the era of ruthlessness and blood drinking, and will not develop any further.

The development of sailing ships in the tribe is of great benefit to the tribe, and it can greatly improve the ability of the tribe to sail far.

As a person from later generations, he clearly knows the meaning that large ships can bring!

Moreover, compared with long-distance land transportation and faster and more advanced air transportation, water voyages have the lowest requirements and are the easiest to achieve.
