Chapter 1136: Master Wu
But how could she have thought that this stay would be for three years?
Shane Shaw didn"t lie to her. After the old man"s condition improved, he took over the work of the shipbuilding workshop and worked hard to supervise the construction of large ships.
But this kind of big ship was the first time they have built. They have no experience in this area, and they have tried several times without success.
One day, an unfamiliar large ship appeared in the harbor of the United Kingdom, attracting countless people"s attention.
That ship was huge and exquisite. Not only it was big, but also tall, and it has several floors like a house.
The s.p.a.cious deck was full of people. They looked at the people on the sh.o.r.e in amazement, and the people on the sh.o.r.e also looked at them in amazement.
Someone boldly shouted to the people on the sh.o.r.e: "We came from the Central Plains and brought our goods from the Central Plains, do you want to see it?"
The people on the sh.o.r.e looked at them dumbfounded, unable to understand what they were saying.
"Master Wu, they don"t seem to understand what we are saying." The young man who shouted said to the middle-aged man beside him.
Master Wu nodded and said: "Erhu said that the people here speak differently from our Central Plains, and their appearances are also different. That"s true."
"Master Wi, this is the hometown of Erhu? The United Kingdom?"
Master Wu said: "These people look similar to Erhu, I think we didn"t ho the wrong place. You go and see Erhu if he is awake, now only he can communicate with these people. We need him to help us with the cargo of this ship and sell it. Otherwise, won"t this trip be in vain?" Master Wu felt very regretful. If he know that the United Kingdom was so far away, he would never have agreed to come.
He thought it would arrive in ten days and a half at most.
As a result, they travel across the sea for two months, two months… … He has lost a lot of weight.
The young man left in a hurry, and turned back after a while: "Sir, Erhu hasn"t woken up yet, his face is very bad, and he is talking nonsense. The situation is even worse than before."
Master Wu frowned and his face turned dark.
Who would have thought that this Erhu, who has always been in good health, will suddenly faint yesterday, and couldn"t wake up no matter what?
The doctor accompanying him on the boat couldn"t do anything about him either, and it was useless to give him any medicine.
"Master Wu, what should I do now?" The young man asked.
Master Wu"s ship was a large cargo ship newly built by the government. It was an enlarged cargo ship specially made by the new emperor"s shipbuilding department. It was designed to conduct business with foreign countries by sea. While doing business, they can learn more about the national conditions and people"s livelihood in the outer regions.
Master Wu was the Minister of Maritime Affairs personally appointed by the new emperor. This trip to sea was ordered by the emperor, and there was no room for error.
Erhu can"t have an accident, he must wake Erhu and let him help complete the first business of the sea trade.
"Go to the sh.o.r.e!" Master Wu commanded in a deep voice.
The huge cargo ship slowly docked. The port, which could have docked dozens of large fishing boats at the same time, immediately became crowded. Even the seawater at the port also rose by three points due to the docking of the large cargo ship.
The Shane Shipyard was the largest in the United Kingdom. They have been trying to build a large ship for the past three years, but they have not been successful. At this time, a large cargo ship suddenly came to the port. Naturally, this matter reached Shane Shaw"s ear very quickly.
Shane Shaw immediately put down his work and rushed to the port with his men.
The large cargo ship has been docked at the port, and the hull was larger than any he has supervised in the past three years.
And it was even more gorgeous. The wood of the hull was polished very smoothly, and the top was also engraved with exquisite patterns. The ends were covered with black iron sheets… … it looked exquisite everywhere.
