Starting Today, I’ll Work as a City Lord

"Oh? Please tell me." A gleam of light flashed in Liu Feng's black eyes.

"The reason why big ships have not been popularized is not only the high cost, but also technical problems."

There was a gloomy look in Weishi's eyes, and he said seriously, "The structure of the big ship has not been very ideal. In the original big shipyard where I was, they have built five big ships in order to solve the problem of the big ship's structure, but without exception, all of them are It fell apart shortly after sailing."

He also participated in the construction of five large ships, but because the large ships cost too much gold, the dockyard closed down and everyone was dismissed.

"In addition to technology, it is a matter of money. To build a 50-meter-large ship, you need to keep trying. As long as one ship can sail for ten days without falling apart, it will be a success."

Weiss paused, and continued, "The most important thing in shipbuilding is wood. Those large docks are usually located by the sea, and the wood suitable for shipbuilding has to be transported from far away places. This is the biggest reason why shipbuilding is expensive."

Liu Feng raised his eyebrows. To sum it up, there are only two points, funds, drawing technology, and the boatman who has built a big boat in front of him. He feels that his big boat will not enter the water for a long time.

Weishi pursed his lips and looked at Liu Feng nervously. His greatest wish was to rebuild the big ship, even with less money. Unfortunately, few shipyards would do such a loss-making business. It is the kind of boats that are more than ten meters and twenty meters long.

"Then Mr. Weishi, you are welcome to join Xiyang City." Liu Feng smiled lightly.

"Ah? Lord City Lord, do you really want to build a big boat? A fifty-meter boat?" Wei Shi was a little nervous. If he didn't build a big boat, he might not agree to it. He would rather stay in the fleet and follow the boat everywhere. Go, he's looking for a dock where big ships are built.

"Of course, otherwise why would I open the dock?"

Liu Feng opened the drawer, took out a stack of blueprints, and handed the top three to Wei Shi, saying, "This is the blueprint for building a big ship, you can take a look."

"Ah?" Wei Shi was stunned. There are blueprints here? He hurried forward, took the drawing respectfully with both hands and looked at it, the more he looked at it, the more surprised he became, his eyes almost popped out.

"How is this possible? Why didn't I think of it? The design of the compartment? The main bone of the ship..." Wei Shi pulled his hair, muttering in his mouth, with an expression of annoyance and sudden realization.

"How is it? Can such a big ship be built?" Liu Feng raised his lips. The blueprint was the ship information he found in the library.

"Yes, of course." Wei Shi nodded fiercely. With such a large ship blueprint, as long as someone gives them wood, he can build ten ships.

"Very good, as long as the first big ship can be built, I will give you a flat." Liu Feng said seriously, "There will be bigger ships to be built in the future, and this is just the beginning."

"Yes!" Weishi replied respectfully, and he was even more happy to build a bigger boat.

"An Li, ask Buff to arrange a house for Mr. Weiss and the others." Liu Feng turned his head and told An Li.

"Okay." An Li nodded.

"As for the wood, I will arrange someone to take you to choose the wood that you think is most suitable for shipbuilding." Liu Feng said lightly, there are too many types of trees in the confinement mountains, many of which are not found on the earth, and there is always a kind that is suitable for shipbuilding of.

He doesn't understand this knowledge very well, and he doesn't want to worry about it, just leave it to someone who can do it.

"yes!"

Weishi smiled honestly, he felt that when he came to heaven, the owner here would not give him great restrictions, this is what he likes most.

The owner of the last dock didn’t know how to build a big ship, so he gave pointers. The most important thing was to save money and get some low-quality wood to build it.

Just because the owner of the shipyard heard that a big ship can be sold for a lot of coins, he plunged into the construction of the big ship and pushed orders for other ships. This is why the shipyard went bankrupt so quickly.

Chapter 0318 strange collection.

"Kagji!"

The door of the study was closed, Wei Shi was sent out of the castle by the maid, and someone would take him to see Buff.

Darlene and Catherine stared blankly at the conversation between Liu Feng and Wei Shi, and they didn't realize it until Wei Shi left.

"My lord, can you really build a 50-meter boat?" Darlene asked in disbelief.

"Yes! Just follow the blueprint." Liu Feng nodded. With blueprints and boat builders, it's really not difficult for a 50-meter boat.

Weishi will be under surveillance now, or in the future, and the design of the 50-meter ship must not be leaked.

"This..." Darlene was a little at a loss for words, rationally told her that this was impossible, but Wei Shi's behavior just now seemed to be true.

"You don't have to believe it now, you'll know when you see the boat later."

Liu Feng smiled gently, he never forced people to believe anything, just because he will create more incredible things in the future, and people will always believe him on their own.

Darlene looked at Liu Feng's smiling face, and said softly, "Well, I'll wait and see."

"By the way, Miss Darlene, Miss Catherine, I have something to ask." Liu Feng sat up straight and said softly, "Do you know which nearby city has an auction?"

"Auction?" Catherine frowned and thought about it, shaking her head for a while and said, "I don't know, I only know about the auction in the capital."

"En!" Liu Feng nodded, looked at the frowning Darlene, and waited quietly for her answer.

"Excuse me, Your Excellency Liu Feng, what kind of auction do you want? Auctioning slaves?" Darlene stared at Liu Feng with blue eyes. There are too many auctions. Some are dedicated to auctioning slaves, and some are dedicated to auctioning large objects. There are also gemstone auctions.

The nobles in this era are very strange. Some people pursue gems. No matter what kind of gems, as long as they are gems, they will buy them and collect them. It is like a collection hobby.

Some people also like strange collections, that is, animal heads, the brains of animals are cut off, and after special embalming treatment, they are then hung on the walls of the castle.

There are also those who like weapons, such as various knight swords, knight armor, knight spears, etc., will be collected, especially those weapons made by famous dwarf masters, which will make people crazy.

This has led to the evolution of many strange auctions, such as auctions dedicated to the auction of precious stones. In such auctions, one must be recommended to participate.

But there are also some public auctions. After all, strange auctions are prepared for some special nobles.

...

"Slave? No, no, I'm not here to buy and sell slaves." Liu Feng shook his head and said flatly, "I have some things that I want to auction off, so I hope there will be a big auction to auction them off."

"That's it."

Darlene breathed a sigh of relief, stretched her brows, and said softly, "A place seven days away from here is Tengying City with 20,000 people. Hold an auction, where can His Excellency Liu Feng send the items to be auctioned."

"Oh? A city of 20,000 people?" Liu Feng's eyes lit up. This is a big city. Compared with some small cities with 2,000 to 3,000 people, Tengying City is definitely a big city.

As long as it is a big city, there will definitely be many merchants or nobles who settle down. One of their characteristics is that they have coins, which are the so-called local tyrants.

"Yes, Earl Tengger is considered an old nobleman. His auction attracts many merchants and nobles every month." Darlene said softly.

Her father, Solo, has gone to participate several times, but he didn't buy a single item. I heard that the lowest price started with one silver coin, and the highest transaction price in history was 120 gold coins. Lianna didn't know either.

"How long will it be before the next auction?" Liu Feng asked.

"It will be about eleven days." Darlene replied immediately, and eleven days later it will be the beginning of next month.

"There is plenty of time." Liu Feng nodded. He decided to participate in the auction, and even thought about the items to be auctioned.

He just needs to go back to Earth and place an order on a certain treasure with his mobile phone, and he can definitely fetch a high price.

"Is Your Excellency Liu Feng going?" Darlena's blue eyes flickered.

"Well, I should go." Liu Feng nodded. He also wanted to go out for a walk. It happened that there were no major affairs in the territory, and An Li was handling general government affairs.
