At the beginning, Kong Ming was worried about whether the Aegwynn's ship type would be acclimatized when it crossed the world, but whether it was Alita or Crowe, or even Man, the best boatman in the Kingdom of Scandinavia in the East China Sea, Nuer and Black Cat Crow's boatman Nuqianu both praised this type of ship and said that it was definitely a very good ship.
Kong Ming was relieved, after all, he was the professional in this aspect!
¡°Weigh the anchor, half-raise the sail, turn the fore jib to the left, lower the mizzen jib¡¡± Arrita, the second-rate sailor, wearing a captain¡¯s hat and a monocular in her hand, stood on the poop, looking heroic. "Now, port rudder five, hoist the mainsail and leave the harbor at full speed"
¡°Don¡¯t mention it, based on Arrita¡¯s performance now, Kong Ming feels that she can definitely compete for the title of the most beautiful captain in the East China Sea.
"Boys," just when Kong Ming felt that Arrita, who was working hard, was still reliable, he saw Arrita standing on the poop step forward and pulled out a gun from behind with a swipe. He pointed a huge iron rod toward the sky, assuming a pose that he thought was extremely handsome, "Say, our journey is"
"The sea of ??stars"
well! You are a beautiful lady, how could you make a mistake?
Facts have proved that Arrita's sailing skills are quite good. Although Kong Ming doesn't know how to sail or sail a boat, he can evaluate weather conditions, seek good luck and avoid bad luck, calculate the direction of sea currents, and make a human calculator. He still had no problems with things like that, so the journey from Navia City to the Beast Island was very peaceful.
That¡¯s right, it was very peaceful and we only encountered three waves of pirates. Then there were two waves of pirates. Although their ships were within the range of the Aegwynn, they probably did not attack the merchant ships when they saw them. Then Kong Ming changed the pirate flag after thinking about it, so the third wave of pirates finally came to rob them. Kong Ming took matters into his own hands and launched an artillery attack, but the opponent picked up the white flag and made the second-rate Arrita, who was gearing up to lead people to engage in a boarding battle, unhappy for several hours.
As a humanoid calculator that can take into account the gunpowder filling amount, the friction between the shell and the barrel, the wind direction, the sunlight, and even the acceleration of gravity and the gravity of the moon when calculating ballistics, Kong Ming can say without humility that Come on, everyone in the East China Sea is full of rubbish. In terms of ballistic calculation, no pirate or navy can compare with Kong Ming. This is also the reason why Kong Ming brings ten portable magic artillery pieces with him when he goes out.
In short, in this absurd era of great pirates, a merchant ship went out to sea once and only encountered three waves of pirates, but managed to avoid two waves. The last wave could have been thrown away if Kong Ming had run faster.
Of course, if you really get rid of it, you will lose at least several million.
But this is not the key. The key is that we only ran into three waves of pirates along the way, and we didn¡¯t have to fight. This is definitely good luck and a safe journey. Otherwise, why do you think the Capital of Seven Rivers wants to build a sea train?
In this age of great pirates, some things are completely different from the age of great navigation on earth, while some things are not much different. For example, pirates, whether they are today or those in the Age of Discovery on Earth, some of their practices are very similar.
For example, when some legitimate businessmen who do not want to be named go out to sea to do business and see a deserted pirate ship, they do not mind temporarily removing the flag of their own chamber of commerce and replacing it with a pirate flag to steal his mother's piece. ticket.
What, you said that our Azeroth Chamber of Commerce robbed your Emerald Chamber of Commerce¡¯s ship? Are you kidding me? I, the great virtuous man of the East China Sea, will do this kind of thing and ask, what evidence do you have?
Think about it, even a conscientious businessman who does not want to be named, who claims to be a good person in the East China Sea, can do this kind of thing. What do you think other profiteers will do at sea?
In this damn era, any ship that does not fly the navy flag is a potential pirate ship. Even if it is a ship that flies the navy flag, there is no guarantee that it is not a pirate ship.
"Alita, look at that pirate ship?" Kong Ming stood on the bow of the ship, staring at it, his glasses slightly emitting blue light.
"oh oh¡¡"
"It looks like a pirate ship, but in fact it is a merchant ship of the Red Leaf Chamber of Commerce. Look at the merchant ship of the Emerald Chamber of Commerce"
"Oh oh oh"
Kong Ming pushed up his glasses, and a cold light shone, "It looks like a merchant ship, but in fact it is a pirate ship!"
"How did you know, boss?" Arrita ate without raising her head.
Could it be that I have an eagle attached to my glasses?It was very good. At least it performed well in the middle of the storm. Although it was pouring rain outside, there was no wind in the ion shield. The crew even had time to gather around the side of the ship and watch the scenery.
Yes, there are no disadvantages except that it consumes a little too much energy.
OK! If this thing is modified again, it can be considered as another flagship product of the Azeroth Chamber of Commerce.
That¡¯s right, Kong Ming¡¯s Azeroth Chamber of Commerce mainly deals in some pretty good special products made by Kong Ming through alchemy and engineering. For example, the Chamber of Commerce focuses on special medicines to prevent and treat scurvy. After all, in this world dominated by navigation, what really troubles these pirates is not the navy, but scurvy.
Of course, scurvy is not as scary in this world as it was in the Age of Discovery, because this world has long discovered that scurvy is caused by a lack of nutrients in vegetables and fruits. This is why Nami specially transplanted an orange tree after boarding Luffy's ship.
But most pirates are actually illiterate. They are neither likely to have complete nutritional supplies like the navy, nor are they lucky enough to have people like Nami and Sanji who understand the causes of scurvy and can also adopt relevant methods. Talents who can carry out prevention and treatment with corresponding means. They don't even have navigators, and they don't have any ambitions to find the Pirate King's secret treasure. They may make a living by robbing merchant ships and coastal villages in the waters they are familiar with.
However, this kind of people also have very low risk resistance. A sudden storm may cause them to lose their way, and then wander at sea for several months, unable to find any land except desert islands, and finally die from scurvy. It broke out and died in large numbers.
So the special medicines, or vitamin tablets, made by Kong Ming still sell well.
But when it comes to the biggest buyer of Kong Ming¡¯s vitamin tablets, you won¡¯t believe it. It¡¯s actually a country that doesn¡¯t even go overseas.
Yes, this country is the bridge kingdom on the East China Sea, Techila Wolf.
Because everyone living on the bridge is constantly repairing the bridge every day. It has been repaired for seven hundred years, but visual inspection shows that the progress of all repairs will take at least another ten or seven hundred years. There is no land and crops in this country, and all food has to be It is shipped from other places, so the citizens of this country, especially those working at the bottom, are seriously lacking in vitamins, and scurvy is prevalent among these people from time to time.
¡°The cost of delivering fresh vegetables and fruits to these people is too high, so once Kong Ming¡¯s vitamin tablets came out, they immediately aroused the love of those suppliers in the East China Sea who deliver supplies to this country.
Originally, we had to think of ways to deliver green vegetables and fruits to these guys, but now we don¡¯t have to. We only need to give these untouchables a special medicine every now and then to supplement their calcium
To be honest, this is something Kong Ming didn¡¯t expect at all. But this is somewhat of a good thing. After all, after taking Kong Ming's special medicine, Techila Wolfe has almost never had scurvy again.
¡¡
After the ship approached the rare beast island, Kong Ming was already sure that the storm around the rare beast island must not have been caused by nature. It was most likely the great kingdom that did genetic experiments on the rare beast island in order to avoid the intruders. This disrupted their research and deliberately modified the surrounding weather.
Otherwise, Kong Ming really has no way to explain why the rain stopped when his ship sailed to Zhenshou Island in the middle of the storm. In other words, this storm is not going anywhere, it just stays in the sea area around Zhenshou Island, and the wind cannot blow it away. Moreover, the wind and sunshine on the island are beautiful and not affected at all.
If this kind of thing is not man-made, then it can only be said that God in the One Piece world is really too busy.
But it¡¯s hard to say. Kong Ming remembers that such a leisurely and painful climate is not very rare in the world of pirates.
¡°The boat is parked right here, yes, right here¡±
After circling around the Treasure Island, Arrita found a fjord that was sheltered from the wind, and the water was deep enough, making it a natural port. What's even more coincidental is that next to the port, there is a stone slope leading all the way to the depths of the woods on Zhenshou Island. It looks like a specially built road.
This is simply a hammer! (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
