Boat? Is this a boat
From the moment the bow of the Upper City ship appeared on the surface of the Green Leaf River, this was the only thought in Morris III's mind.
Are you fucking telling me that this thing as tall as a mountain is a ship
Unlike Nancy, who had not systematically studied the statistical units on Earth, Morris III had no idea what tonnage and meters were.
So when looking at the Snow, Morris III only felt that this steel-cast ship could sail on the sea and let the steel float on the sea!
No matter how you look at it, this is the power of the God of Forging or the God of the Sea.
However, his concept of the ships in the illustrated book, especially the size of the ships, was still based on his own ships.
The Finless Expeditionary Ship, the most proud ship of the Xiuenzhelai Kingdom, is about fifty meters long and three to four meters high.
Looking at the major international organizations in the Far South Continent, Finless is already a well-known giant expedition ship.
But the moment Morris III saw the city ship up close, the word "giant" was redefined in Morris III's mind.
The strongest expedition ship of the Xiu Enzhe Kingdom was like a young child in front of the Shangcheng Ship, as if the waves created by the Shangcheng Ship as long as it increased its speed could overturn the expedition ship.
Giant whale? Morris III felt that this term was no longer appropriate, and it would be more appropriate to describe it as a giant steel mountain floating on the sea.
"Father, if you have enough energy coins, our country can also build a ship like this." Nancy murmured to herself as she looked up at the 'giant ship' made of steel.
"Build? Not buy... Nancy, is the most expensive ship in the catalogue this big?"
At this moment, Morris III couldn't help but want to start spending money.
"Yes! Father, please don't spend your energy coins on useless things!"
Nancy had stopped her father from spending energy coins to buy those finished products yesterday. In Nancy's opinion, this was the most unprofitable deal. It would be more useful if he bought some vehicles and small boats to support some domestic transportation work.
But for a large transport ship of tens of thousands of tons like that, there would be no point for Morris III to buy it except for showing off.
"Is it really possible for us to build such a behemoth?" Morris III's voice no longer sounded confident. The vehicles parked in the camp did not bring such a shock to Morris III.
In the eyes of Morris III, those vehicles were just golems with strange movements, but the city ship in front of him made Morris III truly experience what... the miracle of God is.
This ship would definitely be considered a spectacle in the Middle Ages.
“Absolutely…”
On the first day of studying in the camp, Nancy set the aspiration of "studying for the rise of Xiu Enzhe".
But the real reason why Nancy believes that her backward country can keep up with the rabbits is... today Nancy asked Professor Lin about the history of the Celestial Empire.
As Nancy learned more and more Chinese, she was able to read some books on her own, and she also learned to look up words in the dictionary that she didn't understand.
The book she read recently was about the modern history of the Celestial Empire. In order to confirm that her understanding was correct, she also consulted Professor Lin.
This afternoon, Nancy talked with Professor Lin for a long time. The modern history of China is not a glorious period. When Professor Lin mentioned several humiliating battles, he was so upset that he took off his glasses and wiped away his tears.
Among these battles was mentioned a humiliating naval battle.
Nancy looked at this magnificent upper city ship, and then turned her gaze to the soldiers standing upright at the other side of the port.
Nancy felt that as an outsider, she had no way of knowing how much grievance they had experienced behind their current glory, but a strange power was surging in her heart.
"I will send an envoy to study after I return home, Nancy... they will all obey you." Morris III knew that his daughter's vision was much farther than his own.
"Father, I actually have one more request."
When Nancy heard that Morris III was going back to his country, she suddenly changed from her saintly state back to that of a shy little girl.
"Go ahead Nancy, you know I'll give you whatever you want," Morris III said.
"I... want you to buy me a cell phone."
Nancy hesitated for a moment before proposing something that most children on earth would ask their parents for.
"Cell phone?" Morris III felt that this unfamiliar word looked familiar to him. He felt as if he had seen it somewhere.
"It's the Contact Golem. That's probably how it's translated in the encyclopedia."
Nancy's fingertips touched each other lightly, and her voice sounded a little nervous. She had always been very obedient and sensible since she was a child, and seldom asked her father for anything.
But Nancy really wanted to buy a new mobile phone. At first, Lu Cheng also saw Nancy's need and hinted to Nancy that if she wanted, he could give her one.
Nancy's self-esteem made her refuse, but the problem was that Elena would always take pictures with her mobile phone during class, and she also heard from Elena that mobile phones had all kinds of strange new functions.
This feeling is like being a country girl...being shown off by the rich girl in class with her cell phone.
Nancy saw three models of mobile phones in the encyclopedia, each requiring five energy coins.
She didn't have many energy coins on hand, so she had to ask her father for money.
"Contact Golem? I've seen this thing."
Morris III waved his hand, and the servant behind him immediately came up to him and helped Morris III flip through the super thick encyclopedia.
"There are three in there, which one do you want to buy?" asked Morris III.
"Just don't use red."
Nancy didn't know much about mobile phone models, but Elena's phone was red, and as a little girl, she didn't want her phone to be the same color as Elena's.
"Then I'll buy you a white one. It seems that this thing can transmit sound over long distances. If I buy one, can I communicate with the Kingdom of Xiu Enzhe?" Morris III noticed the function of this 'Mini Communication Golem' at this time.
"As long as the signal base station is built, it will be fine. Lu Cheng said that he will start building the signal base station today."
Nancy didn't know what a signal base station was, but since Lu Cheng said it, she would usually remember it first and then try to understand what it was.
"I will give this shopping list to Lord Lucheng before I leave, my daughter...if there is nothing else you need, I will begin to pray."
Morris III felt that he would be betraying his faith if he didn't pray after seeing a huge ship that was as big as a mountain.
"I won't bother you, father."
Nancy nodded, and just then the bell for class rang in the camp, announcing that Nancy's lunch break was over and the afternoon class was about to begin.
