They walked through the living quarters.
In the distance, a brand new Fu ship was docked at the dock.
The Fu boat was painted with tung oil, giving off a pungent smell.
"This... is this the blessed ship that the prince mentioned?"
"Oh my god? Why is it so big?!"
"As tall as a city, with a water depth of more than ten feet..."
"This is already bigger than a building ship!"
Ning Que also watched with a smile.
You know what, this test ship is pretty good.
The deck of a Fuzhou ship is flat, with the sides cut like a knife's edge, giving it a V-shaped cross-section. A keel running from bow to stern supports the hull, making it stronger and allowing for a deeper draft. It is approximately ten zhang long, three zhang wide, and about ten zhang deep. The mast stands about eight zhang tall, though the sails are not yet hoisted.
"There are still some protective measures that have not been added."
"Later, we can deploy some crossbows and giant stone cannons on the deck. For normal duty, we can accommodate at least thirty people. There are also openings all around the ship for firing crossbows. There's a dedicated rest area under the ship, and it can also store supplies. This ship can bear at least 10,000 tons of weight!"
"That's good."
"Thank you, Senior Brother Gongshu and the two Senior Brothers Hai."
"Hahaha, you're too polite, little junior brother." Hai Zai said nonchalantly, "Being able to build a ship of this scale is beyond our expectations. As craftsmen, we are very proud. This warship will surely be able to sail overseas in the future!"
"Um."
Ning Que nodded.

"If there are no problems, we will start large-scale construction later!"
