"Slow down, you idiot. You have to be as gentle as you would treat your lover. Don't mess it up for me."
"Hey, what about you? You are here to be a sailor, not a lookout. Come up from the lookout right now."
The sailing warship is docked at the port, and many sailors are carrying supplies to the ship. Boxes of rum, generations of flour, dried meat, vegetables, and fruits will form the necessities of the Age of Discovery.
Wang Xu was holding a wine glass in his hand, sitting on the highest rudder deck, watching Zac Luo directing the sailors to work.
The cool sea breeze blows slowly, carrying the smell of the sea, making people feel lazy and don't want to move.
"Captain, our battleship is too big. It requires at least 230 people to control these hundreds of artillery. If you allow it, I would like to recruit some more sailors so that we can have more combat effectiveness." Zacro
With bandages on his hands and a long sword and musket hanging on his waist, he was dressed like a second officer.
Wang Xu nodded slightly, stroked the armrest of the chair with his right hand, and said calmly: "Just do what you want."
"Yes, Captain!" Zacro was just a sailor before. He never dreamed of being the second officer on such a big ship. Now that his dream suddenly came true, he was full of energy and couldn't wait to perform.
Own.
To be honest, Wang Xu likes people who have the desire to express themselves. Such people are more enthusiastic, energetic, and hardworking like a little bee.
The sailors are undisciplined and need someone to supervise them, otherwise these slackers will sleep on the deck.
"Everyone, listen up, we need a lot of sailors now. You trash can hope to board, board..." Zakro scratched his head and asked: "Captain, what is the name of our ship?
It’s so hard to remember.”
"Zhonghua Hao..." Wang Xu originally thought of calling it Zhonghua Hao, but this name is easy to harmonize with, so it is better to be more stable.
Hearing Wang Xu's answer, Zacro stood on the deck and loudly shouted again: "You bunch of rubbish will hopefully board the Zhonghua and become a member of this big ship. Now I declare my request and know how to operate the cannon."
Gunners, sailors with sailing experience, and soldiers who can use long swords and muskets will be admitted first. Gunners have five silver coins a month, soldiers have three, and ordinary sailors have two. Cheers to the captain for his kindness."
"Long live, long live, long live!"
The sailors standing below the Zhanhua all cheered and chanted the slogan "Long live the boat."
The gunners of an ordinary fleet only have three silver coins a month, the soldiers have two, and the sailor has only one.
Once they are selected, it will mean boarding a bigger ship and getting a higher salary, which are all things sailors dream of.
"My name is Neumann. I am a very good gunner. I once served in the Royal Navy. I think there should be a place for me on the ship."
"I'm Old Bart. They all call me Lucky Bart. Don't look at me because I'm old. I've been sailing the sea for sixty years and I've never been injured. I'm applying for the position of helmsman."
"Bill, ship carpenter, I will repair it urgently. I can make your ship sink more slowly."
"I'm Louis, what, I'm too fat, bastard, I'm a chef, don't you need to eat?"
There are many positions on the ship. Sailor is a general term, and there are many tributaries when subdivided.
Navigators, lookouts, helmsmen, gunners, soldiers, sailors, cooks, ship carpenters, doctors, and even measurers on merchant ships. Some long-distance ships will bring prostitutes or priests with them.
Wang Xu's Zhonghua is a long-distance ship. It requires a lot of people to operate it, and even more if you add combatants.
From noon to afternoon, and almost to evening, the sailors and materials were all ready.
Zacro held a captain's hat in his hand, walked up to Wang Xu respectfully, and whispered: "Captain, everything is ready, give the order."
Wang Xu took the captain's hat and stood up from the chair.
He stood on the rudder deck and looked down from above. He saw countless sailors standing on the deck looking at him.
Silently, Wang Xu put the captain's hat on his head, lit a cigar for himself, and breathed out: "Sail, set sail!"
"Long live, long live, long live!" The sailors waved their hats and countless people shouted in unison.
Zacro quickly came to the deck, fulfilled his life as the second officer, and said loudly: "Put in the anchor, lower the sail, and aim for the Caribbean Sea!"
The sailors got busy, with more than a dozen people pulling on a cable and struggling to raise the sail.
Three main sails and two auxiliary sails for controlling the direction were slowly unfolded amidst the shouts of the sailors.
As soon as you catch your eye, you can see a big character written on each of the three white main sails, which together is the flower planting number.
...an hour later...
"Captain, you don't look good. Do you need me to call the doctor?"
"No, no need. I've had a cold these days."
Wang Xu's face was pale and he walked towards the captain's cabin with a civilization stick. His whole head was dizzy. He never thought that he would get seasick.
Yes, seasickness sounds incredible.
What Wang Xu realized for the first time was that he had always been a landlubber. He couldn't even swim, let alone conquer the sea.
"Damn, I'm so embarrassed!" Wang Xu locked the door to the captain's cabin, resisted the feeling of nausea, and opened the door to the reverse world.
The world is still the same as before, Ainas Group is prospering and has long become the overlord of the health care products industry.
Sensing Wang Xu's appearance, the medical robot in the villa quickly came up and said: "Master, your body is showing adverse reactions. According to the robot laws, I will treat you without your permission to prevent you from harming yourself.
body of."
While the medical robot was talking, it ejected an injection needle from its finger and injected an unknown drug into Wang Xu's body.
After the injection, Wang Xu felt a lot better. He lay on the sofa and hummed: "Is there any way to overcome this?"
"Master, I tested your body and found that your symptoms are similar to seasickness. This is a symptom of insufficient coordination of the cerebellum and underdeveloped organs. Based on the current medical basis, there is no way to effectively treat it. I recommend that you take T20 drugs.
This medicine can help you overcome seasickness as much as possible." The medical robot answered truthfully, which made Wang Xu very sad.
The underdeveloped cerebellum affects one's own coordination and adaptability to coordination.
Wang Xu was speechless and firmly refused to admit that this was true. He said, "Give me the medicine and don't mention this topic again."
"Good master, this is T20, a special anti-vertigo medicine. Melt it in water and take it. One pill a day, no side effects!" The medical robot came forward and popped out a box from its chest, which contained dozens of crystal-like pills.
Crystals.
Wang Xu took the anti-sickness medicine, put it into his pocket with a dark face, and asked: "How is the unlocking of combat robots going at the robot factory?"
"We have entered the final stage. It is conservatively estimated that it will take some time before the smart locks of the combat robots can be cracked and they can serve you wholeheartedly." The answer was a butler-type housekeeping robot, which is a kind of robot that helps its owner take care of the industry.
Management robots, a necessity for large enterprises.
Wang Xu nodded slightly. After unlocking the combat robot, he would have helpers to travel around the world.
But compared to this, Wang Xu has another troublesome problem. With the gradual increase of industries, the connectivity of various worlds is getting closer and closer.
The shuttle door is easy to use, but it also brings other problems. For example, this time in the Pirates of the Caribbean world, if the door is not too small, he can drive the floating spacecraft of the counter-world in without buying the flower planter.
But due to the size of the shuttle door, he couldn't carry anything that was more than two meters wide up and down and more than one meter wide left and right. It had to be said that this was a pity. It would be great if there were space treasures.
