"Birthday does not fall as a pirate (

The fin stabilizer, also known as the bilge keel, is generally installed in the bilge on both sides of the ship, with a wing-shaped profile, also known as a side rudder.

Because its abduction cannot exceed the frame line of the ship's cross-section, and the area of ​​the fin cannot expand indefinitely, it is often divided into two types: retractable and non-retractable, and non-retractable is divided into two types: bow skeg and middle fin.

To put it plainly, the basic principle is to increase the offset of the lifting and lowering forces by expanding the width of the bottom of the ship, so as to achieve the purpose of reducing rolling and maintaining stability. The higher the speed, the better the effect.

Especially the non-retractable type, because of its simple structure and low cost, is widely used in later generations, even small fishing boats are equipped.

It is for this reason that people like Lorraine who have no intersection with HNA in later generations can know it, and it is completely unclear whether it is the wisdom of the older generation or the flash of technology.

In short, Lorraine put forward the only constructive suggestion in the entire meeting, and it only took less than five minutes to let the three masters eat thoroughly, which perfectly solved the problem of the new type of ship rolling too much in the shelling.

The plan discussion ended successfully, and Lorraine almost saw that after three years, a legendary ship would be born, shocking the whole world!

When the meeting was about to adjourn, Karen suddenly asked: "Captain, have you thought about the name of this ship?"

"Name..." Lorraine only pondered for a moment. "In the belief of the Vikings, there are a group of Valkyries riding on pegasus. They wear armor and swords on the battlefield of the world, and do not regard either side as an enemy. , Select only the warriors who died in battle and lead them to Valhalla."

"They are the gods most embraced by the warriors, and they are honored as Valkyrie, Valkyrie, who are looking for heroic spirits and cruising the battlefield."

"I think this is a tailor-made name for this ship, and I like it."

"Valkyrie...?"

Lorraine focused his head: "Private special three-masted gallon, Valkyrie. She is our future flagship, a great battleship destined to become a legend!"

...

In this world, now and in the future, no one can predict the direction of its development, just as the fate cannot be guessed, even a witch cursed by the Tarot like Noah, it is impossible to get a truly accurate answer.

In this regard, Lorraine's recent feelings are particularly profound.

Before coming to Boston, he constantly calculated the cause and effect, gains and losses, once regarded the favor of the American elite as the greatest dividend, and never thought that he really had to pay a price.

As a result, fate played him a huge joke.

On the night of shame, the Jackdaw came to an end in the most tragic way. It was blown up by life and fell on the berth at the pier when it was not sailing.

Lorraine tried to find the truth, but tried his best to find no clues. No matter who was the culprit behind the scenes or the accomplice in front of the stage, no one could find the damned trace.

While the investigation was deadlocked, the other road was unexpectedly smooth.

He quickly found a suitable new ship, not only found the ship, but also met the shipyard and flagship that suits him best.

Haite Shipyard changed owners, Valkyrie finalized, the shipyard is prospering day by day with the injection of funds, the three vacant docks have been restarted one after another, at most another one and a half months, even the first dock, which has been stagnant for half a year. The roar of the machine resounded.

On November 6, 1779, on the 13th day of Lorraine's stay in Boston, that is, the 5th day after Valkyrie's finalization, Haight and Keren accompanied him to visit the reopened No. 3 Dock.

This is the best shipyard in Haite Shipyard.

Because of the special feelings for the road markings, even in the most difficult times of the shipyard, there are also several boatmen who volunteered to be on duty here, and the condition of various equipment has been maintained in good condition.

The so-called re-opening is nothing more than dispatching manpower for shipbuilding in the future, assigning dormitories, and cleaning up.

So, there is actually nothing to look at here.

Standing in the empty dry dock, Lorraine stretched his waist comfortably.

"Four days ago it was Dock No. 2 and yesterday it was Dock No. 4. Today it is Dock No. 3...Haite, your drive and efficiency make me admire."

Haite nodded enthusiastically: "Although the shipyard has encountered difficulties, God bless me and the foreman boatmen in several docks have maintained a good personal friendship. As soon as they heard that we were out of the predicament, they immediately gave up the rich The salary is back, which is critical to reorganizing the construction team."

Lorraine curiously asked: "The boatman? Did they bring the boatman?"

"Boston is the most developed shipbuilding center in North-Central North America. The boatmen waiting to work are everywhere in the Back Bay." Haite waved his hand. "We have money, orders, and designers. We can relax the requirements for short-term employment. Then, based on their performance, leave the people we want."

"It's just that the daily supervision is hard."

"No hard work! Compared to the pain of having nothing to do, there is nothing to be afraid of hard work!"

Hite's words hit Lorraine's heart.

There is nothing to do...

The investigation of the mob is now in the agony of having nothing to do.

Bell, Yacharin and Pierce are in the light, Hina and Wang are also in the dark, all the back and the front are ready, only the enemy is not seen for a long time.

Lorraine could understand that the reason why this matter was so difficult was entirely because the opponent did not regard him as a target.

Those people just wanted to destroy the munitions handed over by the Continental Army to the Saints. The mob’s attacks were only a means, and the destruction of the Jackdaw and the lives of more than 20 sailors were just some small gains in their pursuit of their goals. Without taking it to heart, Lorraine couldn't follow the hostility focused on him to pull his opponent out and press it down.

But the more you understand, the more humiliating you feel.

The only thing he can count on now is the 1,500 spears that are still in his hands in name but in fact all have been handed over to the hands of the Saints.

"The bait... should it be sprinkled?"

At the same time, the flower shop at 77 Wesley Street.

Sigma boredly picking out flowers, turning a blind eye to Ryan who was doing the same thing next to him.

"Today Kidalil invited Revere to have lunch. I heard Revere say that Jefferson's social interaction has already had results."

"He facilitated a deal between Kenway and Haite's shipyard at a good price. Kenway found the ship and picked up a shipyard for nothing. In a happy mood, he finally agreed to let go of the arms."

Ryan raised his eyebrows: "No more claims?"

"After all, he is just a smuggling businessman. Benefits are paramount, and he can work the Governor of Virginia to thread his needle. Even if he says on the face, he will not lose money this time."

"Hey, that's why I hate merchants." Ryan sipped, "When are they going to deliver?"

"The delivery will be officially tomorrow morning. Revere is afraid that Kenway will find out the huge debts of the Haite Shipyard, and dare not delay too much on this matter~lightnovelpub.net~ So do you have to do it tonight?"

Sieg squeezed the stem and nodded.

"Are the channels you prepared ready?"

Ryan smiled uncontrollably: "Poor Sand, he didn't know that three of his four most trusted people have become our people. We can gather at least 300 people to Mary Daya without passing through him. He can do nothing."

"So Kenway?"

"Kenway seems to be investigating Kidalil. We dare not attack his people for fear of stunning the snake. However, he sent the Qing people on board to investigate the southern area. With his skin color and language, the Qing people are approaching Sander. "

"You will help him?"

"Compatriots, we have prepared enthusiastic compatriots for him, and can guide him in the true direction at any time."

"It seems that Revere still won't get his gun tomorrow, it's so pathetic."

Sieg's eyes narrowed into crescents, but only smiled for a while before the smile faded.

"One more thing, did Rodney find it?"

"Rodney..." Ryan hesitated for a while. "When he suddenly disappeared in the past, he often found important information and there was no staff around him to pass on..."

"But I have never been missing for ten days for so long."

"We can't find him." Ryan's voice lowered. "I and Harry reviewed several times. Except for the Royal Secret Service, no one in Boston should know our existence, including Kidalil."

"The Royal Secret Service... the servants of the king, even God doesn't know what they are thinking! If..."

Sieg spoke softly, his tone softened, and slowly became inaudible.

"Obviously we are companions, only the feeling that we are alone and busy is not so good..."
