Chapter 228 This is also a talent!
I stayed in the villa and searched the Internet for a lot of design drawings of ancient sea warships, and then made some modifications based on the actual situation of Tiansheng.

When Yun Shu ran to the Ministry of Industry with the blueprint in his arms, wanting to see his grandfather and Jiang Yuanbao to see if the blueprint could be used,
But I found that these two people were sitting together with a young man who looked a little strange, and seemed to be thinking hard about something.

Yun Shu walked over curiously and poked his head in, and was immediately dazzled by the complicated drawings on the table.

"What is this?"

Yun Shu picked up one of them curiously.
It was at this time that several people who were immersed in their own thoughts noticed her arrival and quickly stood up to greet her:

"I'll pay my respects..."

"No need."

Yun Shu waved his hand and barely figured out the structure of the gear set from the blueprint. He turned the blueprint over with some confusion and asked his grandfather and the others:

"Aren't you preparing to build a warship?"

"Qiao Zhang said that the ship was going too far and had a clear destination. If it relied solely on the wind to move the sails, it would take a lot of time if the wind direction changed.

And if we rely on human power to row the giant oar, it would be too strenuous.”

Tang Yuanlin explained:

"It just so happened that he had seen the automatically opening and closing gate made by His Highness in the garden before, so he wanted to try and see if he could find a way to make a boat that could row itself.
Or... a boat that is easier to row."

"A boat that you row yourself?"

Is the idea already so advanced?

This is also a talent!
Her eyes fell on the only young man who looked unfamiliar to her among the people present, and Yun Shu suddenly had an idea:
"Qiao Zhang? Zheng Qiao Zhang?"

For those who are truly ambitious, it is undoubtedly a good thing to be remembered by their superiors in the workplace.

Zheng Qiaozhang raised his eyes in surprise:

"I didn't expect that Your Highness could still remember my name."

"At the poetry gathering, not many people could understand Xianting's design so quickly. Lord Zheng's performance was outstanding, and it would be hard for me not to remember it."

Yun Shu also raised his eyebrows in surprise:
"I just didn't expect that Mr. Zheng would end up coming to the Ministry of Industry."

"I learned a lot from listening to your Highness' words at the poetry meeting last time.

Being able to work in the Ministry of Industry is a dream come true.”

Zheng Qiaozhan nodded slightly in response.

But what he didn't say was that it was said that his appointment to the Ministry of Works was personally appointed by His Majesty.

And... after the poetry competition, he searched for a long time among the scholars of the same year, but couldn't find the first place winner of the poetry competition that day.
On the day of the palace examination, he heard His Majesty say a few words.
The voice sounded very similar to the first place in the poetry competition!

Was that person that day His Majesty?
Was it because of his performance at the poetry meeting that they specially appointed him to the Ministry of Works?
Zheng Qiaozhang didn't dare to ask this question.

So Yun Shu couldn't possibly know.

She just felt that she and Zheng Qiaozhang were both quite lucky.
Yun Shu put the blueprint in his hand back on the table, pulled a chair and sat down:
"So what are you thinking about boats that you can row yourself, or boats that can be rowed with less effort? Any ideas?"

“As for the previous one, I have been thinking about it for a long time without any result. I really have no clue.

The latter one has some ideas. "

Seeing that she started talking about business, Zheng Qiaozhang quickly took out the drawings that were placed in front of him:
"Your Highness, please look, Lord Jiang suggested before that we could install a set of...

I think that if we can build on this foundation and add…” He carefully told Yun Shu the results of the discussions between himself, Jiang Yuanbao, and Tang Yuanlin.
Finally, three pairs of eyes fell on Yun Shu:

"Your Highness, do you think this method is feasible?"

"If it's feasible, why don't we make a smaller model and try it out first?"

She is not a professional in this field. How can she guarantee whether this thing can succeed just by looking at the blueprint?

Yun Shu took out the blueprint she brought from her sleeve pocket:
"But before I do that, I have another blueprint here. Take a look. If we combine these two blueprints, will it be better?"

"This is……"

Unexpectedly, Yun Shu also brought a blueprint, and some of the details drawn on it were something they had not thought of before.

The three of them thought carefully for a moment while holding the blueprint, and their eyes lit up:
“This picture is wonderful!”

"As long as it works."

How could it not be good?

This is the crystallization of thousands of years of Chinese history before the advent of the steam engine!
Among non-motorized boats, it is the strongest!

Sitting nearby and listening to Zheng Qiaozhang and the others' mumblings for a long time, Yun Shu touched the already cold teacup in his hand, and suddenly turned around and waved to the servant outside:
"Go get me a complete set of tea sets. I want to make tea here!"

"Yes."

Although it is not allowed to make tea in this place,

But this is Princess Saint Ann!
The servant didn't waste any time and quickly brought her a complete set of tea sets and an exquisite small stove.

So, when Zheng Qiaozhan was talking excitedly, a thin piece of rice paper fell lightly into his hands.

At first, Zheng Qiaozhang didn't take it seriously, but after the second and third photos flew over,

He finally couldn't help but turned his head to take a look.

When he looked over, he saw Yun Shu placing another piece of rice paper on the kettle.

But perhaps because the piece of paper was torn too small and too light, it didn't even touch the kettle, but was blown to him by the white smoke rising from the kettle.

Zheng Qiaozhang: “…”

Has Princess Saint Ann always been so childish?
Or was His Highness silently accusing them of being so engrossed in their conversation that they ignored her existence?
After hesitating for a moment, Zheng Qiaozhang said softly:

"Your Highness, what are you..."

"Why did the paper fly out?"

As if she didn't hear Zheng Qiaozhang's voice, Yun Shu suddenly said slowly with a thoughtful expression on her face:

"What on earth is this white smoke?"

Zheng Qiaozhang: “?”

The three people were startled.
Yes, what on earth is this white smoke?
Is it the wind?
If you can boil water with fire, how can you generate wind?

Besides, the wind doesn’t look like this!
Is that the smoke from the fire?
Obviously this is not the case.

Those cigarettes can’t lift up paper or even some thin kettle lids!
It's obviously a very common thing, but I've never thought about it before.
Now that Yun Shu asked this question, they could only look at each other, and no one could answer.

There is one more chapter, later~
