Chapter 665 What intentions?
Frederick was a little puzzled why Tom and the others didn't use the seawater desalination machine. After asking, he understood the reason.
When the Duchy of Wesson was designed, the ship was reserved for the desalination machine, and it had an underwater water intake, which could directly draw water near the bow of the ship.
But traditional boats do not have the design of water intake, and no one dares to make holes in the boat, so they can only use wooden barrels to purify the water, which is very inconvenient.
And this machine is very expensive, and the captains are worried about what to do if they break at a critical moment if they are used too much, so they should bear it.
Frederick scratched his head a little. He thought that this was a must-have for sailing and was not afraid of not being able to sell it, so the price was a bit high.
It seems that this strategy is not very good now. If you buy one for ten years and don’t change it, how can you sell it cheaper and use it often and then buy three for ten years and make a lot of money.
He began to understand what some people did in his previous life, but now he is sitting on their side.
The two of them boarded the deck from the stern and arrived at the bridge again.
Tom made a big discovery and asked in disbelief: "Is this the machine that controls the rudder?"
He had taken a taxi in Amster City and saw the steering wheel. He thought how good it would be if the rudder could control it like this instead of someone pushing it.
It's now realized.
Frederick entered salesman mode: "This boat uses a magic rudder to control the rudder. You look at the radiant steering wheel. Each pillar corresponds to the deflection angle of the rudder. The response time is fast and labor-saving. The existing sailboat can also be modified and installed, which is only ten Florins."
Tom was a little moved, and out of caution, he asked: "How does it work?"
Frederick took him to the stern to see the equipment.
Every 1° rotation of the steering wheel in the bridge, it will output a signal to the magic brain core used to control the magic puppet through the magic loop. There is also a signal input when the rudder steering is turned. When there is a difference in the signal, the magic reciprocating machine controls the rudder to rotate through the gear set, and stops when the signal matches.
Frederick said another group of professional terms such as "four loops and two backups", and Tom understood it.
This servo system has not yet been on the previous generation of flying Tulips. This time, Omete made it by using his technical advantages in magic puppets after deeply participating in the design of the new ship.
Omett started out with the idea of selling separate systems, so the entire system operates independently, and can be installed by sea boats, river boats and even pedal yachts in parks.
Tom said, "I plan to load one for my boat, too."
Frederick smiled and said, "When the trial voyage comes back, it will be put on the market if there is no problem."
"Let's go and see the engine."
Tom is immediately energetic, that's what he wants to see the most.
Halfway through, someone who had been arranged came to Frederick and said there was something urgent.
Frederick could only regretfully tell Tom that he was leaving, and Tom had to get off the boat together.
That night, a group of people invited Tom to have a drink.
They are all famous big names in the maritime circle. It is difficult for him to accept this and refuse that, so he simply booked a tavern and invited them to tell them what they saw today.
Some people are interested in the exhaust system because the humid cabin makes some cargoes prone to mold.
Many people also want to buy servo, which can really save their lives.
Some people were shocked because their boat had just been painted with fake paint. Someone asked him again: "What is the engine in the boat?"
Tom said regretfully, "We were on the way to see the engine, because an urgent matter happened, someone called Duke Weisen away."
At this time, someone asked in confusion: "Does he not want you to see?"
Someone immediately said, "It shouldn't be. During the day, the Duke of Lugang beat the boss in the tavern. It is said that he drank the onion-flavored Oleron beer. The Duke of Lugang asked the beater to pay a lot of money to privately settle the matter."
Many ship owners and captains cursed, and the issue they were most concerned about was ruined by such things, and they could not bear it.
A captain said angrily, "I will never help Oleon Island transport beer again!"
After he finished speaking, he heard someone sighing next to him, looking at the fact that he was not from the sea, so he asked, "Sir, do you want to buy such a boat too?"
The captain heard that Grand Duke Weisen's new boat could run from Amster City to Le Havre City one day, and regarded the person beside him as the one who had the same idea as him.
Barl Durgo said with a frown: "I'm worried. What should we do if one day the Wesson army was riding such a boat here in one day."
The captain of the Kingdom of Angles immediately said: "You are the Baron Durgo who said that the Great Guild of Wesson invaded your Kingdom of Gaul all day. Now who doesn't know that you can make a lot of money with Great Duke Weisson, but you are sow discord all day long. What is your intention?"
The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥Back⊥⊥⊥⊥!
A shipowner from Barris City immediately agreed: "Yes, the Duke of Lugang is kind enough to provide us with friendship bonds to make my lord rich. You want us to be so poor that we can't afford to buy onions, right?"
"Are you a devil sent by the pagans to provoke discord?!"
The person next to him continued: "Duke Weisen has a good relationship with the pagans, and he must be a whispering demon who seduces us to make mistakes!"
In the classics of the Church of Light, good things are taught by God of Light, and bad things are instigated by demons. If this accusation is exaggerated, it is enough to pull Baron Durgo to the square to barbecue.
And behind these two people is the great nobles of Barris, and the ability and means to slowly roast Baron Durgo in a low heat is not a problem.
The others in the tavern agreed, and those who do sea business don’t have a big shot as their backer, and those who dare to stop everyone from making money together will be crushed to death.
Baron Durgo realized that the situation was not good and immediately ran away in shame. Before leaving, he left a sentence: "You must know that I am right in the future!"
The information in the tavern quickly reached Frederick.
Maria asked Frederick: "Do you want to shut up?"
Baron Durgo's remarks were heard of by the Principality of Wesson, but he was a nobleman of the Kingdom of Gaul, so he could not touch him.
Frederick smiled and shook his head and said, "No, after you go back, discuss with Afu, find a few people from the Kingdom of Gaul to contact him, provide some financial assistance, and let him find like-minded partners."
Mary asked in confusion: "Why do you want to do this? There are too many people who oppose us, which will cause trouble for us."
Frederick asked her, "Do you know who opposes us but doesn't show it?"
Mary shook her head, and then understood again: "Do you want to use him to find those people?"
Frederick nodded. Now no one is willing to easily show his malice to him, but it does not mean there is no.
So it's better to have someone take the lead and let these people surface.
