Chapter 146 The male protagonists in the time-traveling novels ask her every day if she is dead (19)
How is this possible? Not to mention the wind and waves today, even when the sea is calm, it would take at least three or four hours to drive from the pier to the wind and waves strait, right?
How could it be possible to go back and forth within an hour?
No one believed it, so everyone finally got on the boat and walked around the Fenglang Channel. When they came back, everyone looked confused.
The cargo capacity of this ship is several times that of before, and its speed is also several times faster. Everyone present is not a fool, and they know that this ship is of great significance to Weilong City.
So everyone became excited and surrounded the Qin family to compliment them endlessly.
"Your Qin family is the backbone of our Weilong City. With a ship like this! Why can't our Weilong grow stronger?"
"The Qin family has made great contributions..."
The Qin family looked at each other. When did they build this ship? Why didn't they know?
City Lord Gu glanced at the embarrassed and confused Qin family with a smile, and asked: "I wonder if the person who built such a ship would be qualified to be the Young City Lord of Weilong City?"
The elders and aristocratic families all looked shocked.
Is this to choose the young city leader from the Qin family? Who in the Qin family has this qualification? Of course it is Qin Rui!
If they had not objected to Qin Rui becoming the young city lord before, but now that Qin Rui's reputation has become like that, he has lost one of his eyes, and I heard he was beaten to death by Gu Mo, how can he become the city lord?
Then it would be better to let Gu Mo come.
But they couldn't openly offend the Qin family, so they could only protest silently.
Master Qin's face turned a little green.
City Lord Gu continued to smile, "I just ask you, with such merit, can you be qualified for the position of Young City Lord?"
"Of course, but..."
"That's all I can do. I now declare that my son Gu Mo will be the Young City Lord of Weilong City from now on!"
How did you become Gu Mo?
"Wait, City Lord..."
"What are you waiting for? Isn't that what you said? Building such a ship is a great contribution to Weilong City. My daughter designed and built the ship. Isn't such a great contribution not enough to qualify her to become the Young City Lord!?"
Everyone's eyes fell on Gu Mo.
Designed by Gu Mo? How is this possible?
How could Gu Mo design a ship more powerful than the Qin family?
However, soon, the craftsmen present also testified for Gu Mo, saying that the boat was made according to Gu Mo's design.
They admired Gu Mo so much that they regarded him as a craftsman god.
It doesn't look like City Master Gu is looking for someone to act in order to push his daughter to the top.
In Weilong City, the status of craftsmen who can build ships has always been very high. Gu Mo showed her skills and proved that her accomplishments in shipbuilding have surpassed that of the Qin family. Even if she became the city lord directly, no one would dare to object, let alone becoming the young city lord.
At this moment, the head of the Qin family not only felt the crisis, but also felt that the Qin family was beaten by Gu Mo.
He narrowed his eyes and glanced at a descendant of the Qin family.
The descendant of the Qin family immediately stood up and said: "As we all know, the Qin family's shipbuilding technology is the best in Weilong City. I have never heard of my lady having any interest in shipbuilding before. How come the Qin family can build big ships?"
?”
Well, it makes sense to suspect Gu Mo of stealing the Qin family's shipbuilding technology.
Gu Mo, "If you suspect that I stole the Qin family's technology, how about asking the Qin family to build a ship like this for me to see?"
The Qin family, "..."
Gu Mo's face was expressionless, "The shipbuilding technology in the world is similar. Don't think that all good things belong to your Qin family, and don't think that only your Qin family can make good things. But this time, I have to thank your Qin family. If it weren't for you
Even if I stop building ships, I won’t go into battle myself, so people, if you don’t push yourself, you don’t know where your potential is.”
The Qin family, "..."
After Gu Mo finished speaking, he ignored the blushing Qin family and said to everyone present: "We are already stepping up the design of shipbuilding. From now on, the navy of our Dragon will all be equipped with indestructible warships!"
The navymen guarding the dock were very happy, but Gu Mo dropped another bombshell, pointing at the ship and saying: "This is not only a cargo ship that can carry goods, but also a ship that can pass through
I will personally drive this ship through the Wind and Waves Strait to cross the Wind and Waves Strait. If anyone here wants to join me, please come forward."
Crossing the stormy strait? What kind of joke is Gu Mo kidding?
"Miss, this ship is indeed bigger and faster than the previous ships in Weilong City, but when it crosses the Wind and Waves Strait... you'd better not boast about such an entrance. No one can come back alive from the Wind and Waves Strait."
"What if I can?" Gu Mo looked at everyone present.
It was obvious that she was still as soft and weak as before and could fall down when the wind blew, but everyone was stunned and couldn't see any weakness in her body.
"If I can cross the stormy strait and come back alive, I hope my father and the elders can agree to a condition for me."
Isn't she the young city lord? If Gu Mo can really come back alive from the stormy strait, it means that she is a person favored by the water god, and she should be the young city lord.
But Gu Mo said: "If I cross the wind and waves and find a new land, then the land I find will belong to me from now on."
Huiyue Continent is only such a big place, and everything that can be found has been discovered. The wind and wave strait is just the sea. Even if it is not good, there may only be a few small islands. If Gu Mo wants it, just give it to her.
The elders and aristocratic families all agreed.
City Master Gu was worried and unwilling to nod, fearing that something would happen to Gu Mo.
But in the end, with Gu Mo's insistence, he agreed.
…
The Qin family has everything they need in Weilong City, and even the city lord's palace has to be wary of it, all because of its top-notch shipbuilding technology.
But now, Gu Mo has mastered a method that is more advanced than the Qin family's shipbuilding technology.
Weilong City no longer depends on the Qin family. This not only affects the Qin family's prestige and status, but also affects whether the Qin family can succeed in seizing the throne.
Regarding where the Qin family should go in the future, the head of the Qin family is really worried and his hair has turned gray.
While he was worried about the future of the Qin family, Qin Rui was still jealous of Shui Youlan and Gu Yao. The head of the Qin family was so angry that he had someone capture Qin Rui and get angry at Qin Rui.
Qin Rui frowned, "Father, Gu Mo just secretly learned the shipbuilding technology of my Qin family and built a ship. But is the technology of my Qin family really so easy to learn? Just wait, her ship
Sooner or later something will happen to the ship."
Gu Mo named the ship Breaking the Sea.
The Sea Breaker has been sailing at sea these days, but nothing went wrong as the Qin family expected.
Qin Rui also bribed the craftsmen who were involved in shipbuilding at that time, hoping to obtain the structure of the ship.
But when building the ship, Gu Mo used an assembly line method, and everyone was responsible for different parts.
If Qin Rui wants to get a complete structure, he must bribe all the craftsmen.
Those craftsmen are all close followers of City Lord Gu. How could they all betray City Lord Gu?
