Chapter 1161 Sailboat (2 in 1)

The elder brother was not wrong at all, Han Cheng really thought of a solution to the matter.

This thing is to put sails on the ship!

Whether it is written in the poems I learned when I was a child-"The solitary sail is far away, the shadow of the blue sky is gone, but the sky of the Yangtze River is flowing", or various TV screens, or it is often hung on the side wall of the living room at home. The most famous paintings include welcoming pine trees, big rivers, boats with sails, and a plaque with the words "Smooth sailing"...

This is also a major reason why Han Cheng slapped his forehead violently with his hand.

After all, installing sails on a ship and using the wind to drive the ship forward is simply common sense for future generations.

As a result, I didn't think of this until now.

How is this not annoying?

After a while, Han Cheng became a little calmer, and he thought of some reasons why he had such a blind spot in his thinking.

First of all, it is affected by the environment in which later generations live.

In later generations, he lived in a big iron boat driven by machines to pump river sand, or running back and forth on the river, relying on people on both sides of the river to catch the market, and then went to the town downstream of the river to go to the market.

Either they encountered small wooden boats or small iron boats moored at various ferries to ferry people to the other side.

He has never touched a boat with sails in real life.

Another reason is that over the years, the Fire Tribe themselves have loaded the spun linen on a raft and transported it to the Blue Sparrow Tribe.

The Qingque tribe rowed a boat, and they basically didn't have it when they ran long distances along the waterway. In addition, the rivers near the main tribe were narrow, so they didn't need sails.

Under such circumstances, Han Cheng subconsciously didn't think about it.

Now, with the people in the tribe, they went down the river, and because they were in a hurry, they quickly remembered the matter of sailing.

"Stand up the reed mat and support it with something like a stick, don't let it fall down.

If you can't hold it, you can come to two people, hold and lift it with your hands, and carry it with your body.

pay attention,

Need is to face the direction the wind blows. "

Han Cheng said to everyone like this.

In fact, when Han Cheng first started, he wanted the people in the tribe to pull up the cloth and use it as a sail.

It's just that, except for the clothes worn by people and some bandages for emergency situations, there is no extra cloth for Han Cheng to use in this way.

Moreover, even if there is extra cloth, it will not work, because these cloths are made of linen, which is very breathable.

When the wind blows, it will leak through these small holes. Using such cloth as a sail, even if there is a strong wind, it will not push the boat much.

It was precisely because of this realization that Han Cheng didn't let people try it out with linen, but directly developed his brain hole, and made people use reed mats instead of linen to make heinously simple sails.

Hearing Han Cheng's order, everyone present felt strange, wondering what the Son of God meant by asking him to wait for others to do this.

If you want to make the boat sail faster, shouldn't you have people row the boat vigorously and use pennies to punt the boat?

Why is Shenzi not asking people to do these two things now, but asking himself and others to prop up the reed mat?

However, due to the long-term habit and the various deeds of witnessing miracles with the Son of God, these people in the Qingque tribe still did what Han Cheng said.

While doing it, pay attention at the same time, expecting a miracle to happen.

A miracle happened soon.

After the dense reed mats are stretched, the wind blows on the reed mats, and the reed mats lean against the person's body or the stick behind them, forming a thrust.

This power is much stronger than the power of the wind blowing on people and ships before.

Under the urging of such a force, the ship quickly accelerated and moved forward.

The ships that had already set up the reed mats quickly left those ships that had not yet set up the reed mats behind, and distanced themselves.

Seeing such a scene, the eyes of everyone, whether they were sitting on the boat with the reed mats set up or those who were thrown away without the reed mats set up, suddenly lit up.

The Son of God's method is really a good one!

It didn't take any effort at all, just put the reed mat on the boat, and the boat ran so fast!

This is much faster than people paddling vigorously!

More importantly, the speed of people rowing desperately and exhaustingly is not necessarily faster than the speed of the boat at this time!

The Son of God is worthy of being the Son of God!

It doesn't matter if people don't admire it!

Always able to figure out how to use simple tools to make things extraordinarily useful!

Under such admiration full of emotion and mind full of surprise, those people on the boats who did not prop up the reed mats also speeded up one after another, and propped up the reed mats so that the wind would blow the reed mats and take them with them. they run faster...

Sitting on the boat, Han Cheng felt the speed at this time, and finally a smile appeared on his face.

It is more in line with my identity and status as a latecomer to settle the matter lightly like this.

With such smug thoughts, Han Cheng gradually had some other thoughts.

The idea is that after I return from the Fire Tribe, I will start to gather the lame and other excellent carpenters in the tribe, especially those carpenters who are very experienced in shipbuilding.

Let them start researching on sailboats and try to make sailboats.

In terms of long-distance sailing capabilities, sailing ships are undoubtedly much more powerful than the current ships in the tribe.

The existing ships in the tribe can run for short distances, but for long-distance travel, they are really lagging behind, and some of them can't keep up with the demand.

In the past, after Han Cheng came to this world, the tribe was very poor and had nothing. Under such circumstances, there was no need to pay attention to it. It was very good to have a bamboo raft.

Later, after lame and others made the wooden boats on the river in his hometown when he was a child according to the things he drew, Han Chengcheng became more satisfied.

However, there is a characteristic of human beings called dissatisfaction.

When you get good, you want better.

For many things, satisfaction is only temporary, and dissatisfaction is the norm.

So now, Han Cheng is not satisfied with the small wooden boats that his tribe already owns, and wants to make sailboats.

This kind of dissatisfaction, generally speaking, has more advantages than disadvantages.

Because of such characteristics, it is not easy for people to be content with the status quo.

No, after achieving some achievements, I have been complacent and lost my aggressiveness.

Without these dissatisfaction, human beings will probably always live in the era of ruthlessness and blood drinking, and will not develop any further.

The development of sailing ships in the tribe is of great benefit to the tribe, and it can greatly improve the ability of the tribe to sail far.

As a person from later generations, he clearly knows the meaning that large ships can bring!

Moreover, compared with long-distance land transportation and faster and more advanced air transportation, water voyages have the lowest requirements and are the easiest to achieve.

Land transportation seems to be very easy. People can walk directly with their feet when they are two or three years old.

But that's only for short distances.

Long-distance things involve all aspects.

Not to mention the rest, the road construction alone is enough to make people stop when all conditions are not met.

Opening roads in the mountains, building bridges in the water, such things are done, it is hard to lose your hair.

The investment and technical requirements are simply not too high.

Of course, it is not the roads that require high technology, but the vehicles that drive on the roads.

For long-distance transportation, things like ox carts and donkey carts are not cost-effective.

But Che Hancheng, who burns oil and electricity, can't get it out.

Just thinking about the various craftsmanship, technologies, and materials involved in the various parts of the car, Han Cheng's heart is filled with cold despair.

These things, he really didn't have the ability to get them out during his lifetime.

As for the planes with higher technology, he also felt the cold rain slapping his face indiscriminately.

Compared with these two modes of transportation, water transportation is much better.

There is no need to think about building roads. The many rivers and lakes scattered throughout the land itself are the best waterways.

It is only necessary to continuously improve the shipbuilding technology and the means of navigation.

Not to mention steamboats, wooden sailboats alone can travel across the world.

The incomparably huge fleet of Zheng He's seven voyages to the West were wooden ships.

Magellan, who had a fleet that looked extremely shabby compared to Zheng He's fleet, also relied on wooden boats without machinery to complete the feat of circumnavigating the world!

Because he knew the history and some miscellaneous things that he didn't know how to know in later generations, Han Cheng still knew a lot about these things.

Be able to tell which is feasible under the current conditions.

This matter is settled like this!

After thinking back and forth for a while, Han Cheng reached out and patted his knee like this, making such a decision.

In terms of long-distance transportation, the priority development is water transportation!

As for land transportation, as well as air transportation, this will develop slowly.

Of course, if he wanted to bring it up to the level of the great country that Han Cheng lived in later generations, Han Cheng said that there was really nothing he could do.

However, if you can't get it out by yourself, it doesn't mean that you can't develop in the tribe.

If I am fine, I can record what I know about automobiles, aircraft manufacturing, and the various effects that can be produced after the successful manufacture of automobiles and airplanes, and the significance to the tribe.

Then tell and record some stories about these things with the people in the tribe, let the people in the tribe know these things and have a yearning for them.

With longing, with the direction of efforts, there will be hope.

Humans are often terrifying creatures with astonishing perseverance.

Driven by the hope in the heart, miracles can often be created.

Han Cheng was thinking this way, and suddenly remembered a similar joke, but it made sense.

It is said that there are three types of stupid birds in this world.

One is a bird that strives to fly first and succeeds in the end.

The other is a lazy and stupid bird that sleeps in its nest and does not fly.

The last one is the most abominable. I am too lazy to fly, so I just lay eggs in the nest, and after the chicks hatch, let the chicks fly to lofty ideals.

Han Cheng felt that his current psychology and what he was going to do were very similar to the third kind of bird.

If you can't do it yourself, leave it to future generations and let them do it.

Thinking of this in his heart, he found it quite interesting, shook his head with a smile, and threw this rather weird thought out of his mind.

Then he took out a piece of paper that was folded together and stretched out from his backpack.

Then he took out a smooth wooden board similar to a drawing board.

Fix the paper on the drawing board with a few small bronze nails, and start painting with a brush.

Seeing Han Cheng laying out these things and starting to draw with a pen, the people on the same boat as Han Cheng and the people around them immediately fell silent.

He speaks in a low voice, and does things lightly.

The boat is walking in the river, the two banks are picturesque, and the clear river is full of waves.

Time passes with the flow of the river.

Sure enough, the dead are like husbands, and they don't give up day and night.

A world map appeared on the current paper of Han Cheng, who was drawing with a pen.

Of course, just an outline.

As a liberal arts student who is very good at geography, it is not too difficult for him to draw the outline of a not-so-standard world map by hand.

Especially this kind of thing, after coming to this world, he has done it more than once.

After drawing the outline, Han Cheng held the pen in his hand and looked at it for a while. After thinking about it, he began to write on the map.

He wrote on a continental plate—here there is a tree called the rubber tree, which cuts a hole and produces rubber, which can be used to make rubber tires, which is the best choice for making car wheels.

After making such a mark, Han Cheng thought about it and drew the equator again.

And draw the range of the tropics.

At the same time, he also wrote about the growth habits of rubber trees and the appearance of rubber trees that he knew.

After writing these, Han Cheng stopped his gaze on the plate of Eurasia, and then circled a position closer to the southwest.

It is marked that this place is rich in oil, and the oil is buried underground. It is a black viscous liquid that will catch fire.

Petrol, diesel, kerosene lamps that can be separated from the inside.

Among them, gasoline is an indispensable fuel for the operation of automobiles.

It is equivalent to the fodder fed to the cattle by the bullock cart...

...

As time goes by, Han Cheng is still marking on the world map.

At this time, many things have been marked on the map.

He had already marked everything he knew about the raw materials needed to make a car, and the places that contained the most raw materials.

Han Cheng wanted to put the map away, but then his eyes fell on the island not far to the east of the Eurasian continent...
