    A simple Taoist robe, a simple Taoist bun, and a simple whisk, that's all he has.  Oh, and there¡¯s a storage ring on the finger.

    Facing Zhang Hao¡¯s surprised look, Guang Yangzi smiled gently: ¡°Why, little friend, do you feel a little shabby?¡±

    Zhang Hao smiled a little embarrassedly, "I made senior laugh. Senior, please come inside."

    As he spoke, he asked the guard to inform his father Zhang Shengde.  The head coach has already come forward in person, so the Zhang family has to show enough respect, and only Zhang Shengde can do it in person.

    Zhang Hao continued to receive everyone at the door.  After a while, Bai Ye also came with a few people smiling. Because there were outsiders present, Bai Ye did not call Zhang Hao 'junior brother'.

    "Master Zhang, I take the liberty of disturbing you."

    Zhang Hao looked at the smile in Bai Ye's eyes and said, "Deacon Bai is here in person, and the Zhang family is full of glory. Please, please."

    After the white night, the representative of Xinglin Hall finally arrived belatedly.  The representative of Xinglin Hall is Zhou Shuhai¡¯s eldest disciple, Xie Hongsheng, who is similar in age to Zhang Hao.

    Among the representatives of all parties, Xie Hongsheng is the youngest.  The last time he went to Xinglin Hall, Zhang Hao did not see Xie Hongsheng, as he seemed to be in retreat; now Zhang Hao saw this young man.  He is very calm and speaks in an unhurried and slow manner. I wonder if it is a temperament created by alchemy.

    After Xinglin Hall, everyone has arrived.  Zhang Hao walked inside with Xie Hongsheng and talked at the same time.  For such a disciple of Zhou Shuhai, Zhang Hao was a little wary-could it be that the moon comes first when you are near the water~

    Xie Hongsheng doesn¡¯t talk much and feels a bit bored.  When talking about the division of interests this time, Xie Hongsheng just said that he came to take a look, and Zhou Jue was responsible for the specific negotiations.

    This time Zhou Jue only represents Xinglin Hall, while the headmaster of Jiuyang Sect personally takes action.

    By the time Zhang Hao arrived in the lobby, Zhang Shengde was already entertaining everyone, and everyone was chatting and laughing; for the time being, they were mostly talking about cultivation, the situation in the Kingdom of Jinyang, etc.

    Zhou Jue sat on the side and looked at Zhang Hao blankly, his eyes very complicated.

    Zhang Hao gave Zhou Jue a normal smile and looked at everyone: "Thank you all for coming to Zhang's house despite your busy schedule. Please come with me."

    Mei Qianyun from Yuxue Villa was the first to speak: "Zhang Hao, we are here to discuss shares today. Where are you taking us?"

    "How about I take Fairy Mei to see the sea?" Zhang Hao smiled.

    Everyone burst out laughing.

    Mei Qianyun spat angrily, "After a few days of not seeing each other, things have turned bad. Yingying, I heard that Zhang Hao has been playing some kind of hidden beauty in a golden house recently."

    "Ahem!" Before Mu Yingying could speak, Zhou Jue was the first to quit, "Fairy Mei, we are going to see the iron ship model that the Zhang family just built. If you don't want to see it, forget it."

    After saying that, Zhou Jue turned around coolly and walked out.  When passing by Zhang Hao, he asked dryly: "It should be the seaside where the Dutian Liehuo Array was installed last time."

    Zhang Hao nodded and Zhou Jue strode away.

    Zhang Hao smiled at everyone and said, "Everyone, please. The Zhang family has built the first model of an ironclad ship."

    Zhang Shengde also extended the invitation again, and everyone walked out chatting and laughing. They were also very curious about the so-called "ironclad ship" of the Zhang family.  Although I had seen the one-meter-sized model last time, the model was too crude and I couldn't feel the power of industry at all.

    Mu Yingying looked at Zhang Hao's figure, gritted her teeth, and approached Zhang Hao.  "Brother, can you tell me something about the ironclad ship?"

    Zhang Hao looked at Mu Yingying. The girl bit her lower lip and looked a little sad.

    Zhang Hao felt a little guilty and had a headache, and nodded: "This time the armored ship is the result of more than three hundred craftsmen working almost non-stop for a month.

    The design of the ironclad ship can be said to be completely different from that of traditional ships.  This difference is not just about replacing wood with steel. The biggest difference lies in technology and design.

    ?Compared with traditional ships, the bottom of the ironclad ship is convex rather than flat.

    And because of the heavy weight of the armored ship, we completely canceled the traditional methods such as sails and oars, and instead adopted the mechanical power that everyone has seen before.

    ????????????????????????????????????? The connection between traditional ship templates is mainly based on the mortise and tenon method, supplemented by nails.  The seals are mainly made of glue, paint, hemp, etc.

    ??The new ironclad ship is completely connected by rivets.  In terms of sealing, most of it relies on the process itself.  Sometimes soft copper sheets are used to complete the sealing.

    In fact, sealing technology is one of the most difficult technologies for making ironclad ships.Stand still, the ship is about to start.  "

    Having said that, Hou Shangzhuo ordered the craftsmen to take their places - there were currently no sailors and no one had sailing experience; therefore, the temporary sailors were shipbuilders and other craftsmen.  They are most familiar with this ironclad ship.

    Some craftsmen climbed to the observation deck of the mast, and some got into the engine room.  Hou Shangzhuo and Wang Dake stood at the bow of the ship to command - the deck was now empty, with no buildings; the only item was the rudder.

    Standing at the bow of the ship, Hou Shangzhuo and Wang Dake looked at each other, seeing the surprise and confidence in their own eyes, and then looked at the vast sea ahead.

    Hou Shangzhuo shouted: "Start!"

    ¡°Start!¡± A craftsman shouted to spread the message.

    The voice full of pride floats in the waves and sea breeze.  Bai Ye and others looked at Hou Shangzhuo's back, and suddenly had a strange feeling: their backs seemed very tall!

    Bai Ye suddenly felt a shock under his feet, and a low and powerful buzz came, and then he felt the ship begin to move slowly.

    "How did you move? Why didn't you feel the breath of the formation?" Bai Ye couldn't help but ask.  He had never seen a steam turbine etc. before.

    "It's a steam turbine!" said a person who had visited the steam turbine last time.

    "Angry what kind of chicken?" Bai Ye didn't understand.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
