Chapter 220 Jing Qi Visits
Change is only relative. People who are close to Zhou Zihao have already changed their direction, such as Mr. Mengchang now.

The other three young masters have died or have not shown their knowledge. As for why the system gave such a piece of information, it was just for him to read.

"Where's your senior sister?" Suqin asked.

"She? She should have gone to the palace." Zhou Zihao said.

Su Qin was a little sad because she had met Wang Yanran, who was much prettier than her, and was also very close to Zhou Zihao.

As far as a woman's sixth sense is concerned, this Wang Yanran will definitely become Zhou Zihao's important confidante in the future. Suqin also felt too bored, so she came out for a walk.

Su Qin thought about breaking up with Zhou Zihao, but was this really possible? She was very reluctant to separate from her every time.

When Zhou Zihao saw her talking about his senior sister, he felt a little bit off, and his tone was very low.

"What's wrong with you, living here is not good?" Zhou Zihao asked.

Suqin shook her head, but didn't speak, just stared at the fish in the lake in a daze.

Zhou Zihao asked, "Where did Mr. Gongsun go?"

"He should be meeting his old friends. There are many friends he knew before living in Qi." Suqin said.

"That's right, it should have gone to Jixia Academy."

"Maybe, I'm a little tired, so I'll go back to my room to rest." Suqin turned to leave, as if she didn't want to stay with Zhou Zihao any longer.

Zhou Zihao was about to ask her, but saw that she didn't give him a chance, and walked towards the wing room.

At this moment, a servant ran over and said to Zhou Zihao, "King Qi, there are people looking for you outside the door."

Zhou Zihao asked, "Who is it?"

"He said it was Jing Qi from the shipbuilding base, and he came to look for it several times before." The servant said.

"Please ask him to go to the living room and prepare some snacks and tea." Zhou Zihao ordered.

"Yes." The servant trotted towards the door.

Zhou Zihao almost forgot that he still had an escape base, a giant sea ship, which was already close to maturity at this time.

During the Qin Dynasty, Xu Fu took five hundred boys and girls across the ocean to the island country, where they multiplied and became the modern island country.

Not to mention how the sea ships were at that time, since he was able to travel so far across the sea, the shipbuilding technology was naturally not too bad.

A hundred years have passed since that time, and the coastline surrounded by the sea in the east is so long that many fishermen point out to go out to sea in large boats. For safety, of course, the various performances of the boats are required to be good enough.

Since Jing Qi completed the first huge ship, he has been at home and has not come out to work.

Because no one could understand the huge ship he built according to King Qi's request.From the perspective of people at this time, it was rare to make a boat out of wooden geta, but it was the first time to make a boat out of metal.

No one knew how to sail that ship. This expensive ship had become an empty hulk, and he was almost dying of anxiety.

If Zhou Zihao told him so much about the ship before, if his own mistakes caused King Qi's project to fail, then the crime would be serious.

Jing Qi also knew that King Qi went out to fight, and he also knew about the cannons that could smash the city walls into pieces. He also had several cannon barrels placed on the giant ship.

The shape of this boat is no different from other boats, but it is much bulkier than the original boat. The iron box is their unanimous name.

The shipbuilding materials were all Zhou Zihao put in the base before, and they can only be used for shipbuilding at the base, and other people cannot use the metal there. If they touch it, they will be charged with punishment, ranging from imprisonment to death.

It's not that Zhou Zihao doesn't want others to use it, but that he bought those steel materials from the system, which are very expensive.

Of course, it was impossible for Zhou Zihao to tell them.

Jing Qi saw that the person who had just informed came out, he walked up and asked: "Brother, don't you know that King Qi is at the residence today?"

That person just took a little advantage from Jing Qi, and he looked at Jing Qi much better.

"Master Jing, King Qi invites you to the living room, please follow me, and I will take you in."

"Thank you." Jing Qi stuffed him with some broken silver.

"Young Master Jing is so interesting. I am Xiaopeng from the Prince's Mansion. If you have anything to do in the future, you can come to me more often. I'm sure you will tell me everything you know." Xiaopeng is just a gatekeeper. He rarely sees guests like Jing Qi who always stuff money. So he showed more enthusiasm towards Jing Qi.

When Jing Qi heard this, he slowly let go of his previous worries. He made friends with Xiao Peng just to inquire about King Qi's current situation.

Jing Qi said, "Xiaopeng, when did your King Qi come back?"

"Just came back two days." Xiaopeng said.

Jing Qi felt that the King of Qi had only just returned to the Qi Kingdom for two days, so he was probably quite tired, so it was better not to waste too much time for a while.

Zhou Zihao also wanted to see if the completed boat could be used.

He took a sip of the freshly brewed tea and felt pretty good, at this moment he also saw Xiaopeng leading Jing Qi over.

"The villain has seen King Qi." When Jing Qi saw Zhou Zihao, he was still the same as when he was inspecting the base before.

Zhou Zihao said: "Mr. Jing Qi, you don't need to be too polite, just be as usual. Is there something wrong with the shipbuilding process when you come here?"

Jing Qi tidied up his belongings, and took out a piece of silk with many characters and patterns written on it.

Zhou Zihao glanced at it, it must be his notes.

Jing Qi spread the silk on the table, pointed to Zhou Zihao, and said, "There is no problem in the manufacturing process of the boat. The boat was completed a few days ago, but the problem is that no one knows how to drive it."

Zhou Zihao was a little surprised when he heard him say this. Since it has been manufactured, why can't it be opened?
Zhou Zihao asked: "Then it is idle in the base now?"

Jing Qi smiled wryly and nodded.

"What are the specific difficulties?"

Jing Qi said: "Because the materials you require are made of iron materials, it is many times heavier than a boat made of wood. It is not optimistic at all to rely on human power to row the boat."

Zhou Zihao slapped his forehead, "Yes, why didn't I think of that? The boats I designed are all automatic and need to be equipped with a steam engine to provide power for it."

"Did King Qi think of any solution?" Jing Qi saw Zhou Zihao talking to himself, but he couldn't understand, what automation, steam engine and so on.

Jing Qi could see from Zhou Zihao's face that Zhou Zihao should have already figured out a solution.

Zhou Zihao said: "Since we can't use manual labor, then we will use mechanization. Let's go to the base together. Our ship will definitely get rid of the 'waste' reputation."

Zhou Zihao somewhat understood that for people like Jing Qi and the others who depended on craftsmanship for their livelihood, once they failed in building a ship, it would be difficult to find a satisfactory job in the future.

Jing Qi's eyes shone and he wanted to jump up with joy, but he held back. After all, this was the Prince's Mansion, so if it was too exaggerated.

"Xiao Peng, go and prepare the carriage. I want to go to the shipbuilding base with Jing Qi." Zhou Zihao said to Xiao Peng beside him.
