Chapter 863

The sky was as clear as cloudless as the sea surface was calm, the jasper-like sea water gently patted the boat's belly, the long wooden oars stirred up snow-white waves, and the tower ship slowly sailed to the depths of the sea. There was no wind, but the sail rose to the highest point, painted from top to bottom into three colors: red, yellow and blue. Sun Quan climbed to the top of the mast, grabbed the rope with one hand and placed the other hand on his eyebrows, staring at the gradually moving coast.

Two identical building boats were parked on the shore, and Yang Xiu, Ma Chao and other people who had natural fear of the sea were on the two boats.

There were tables and tables on the Feilu, and fruits were placed on the table. Sun Ce and Guo Jia sat side by side. Guo Jia was holding a pineapple and feasted in a juicy way. He nodded while eating. "It's delicious, delicious, so sweet. This south is good, and the fruits that cannot be eaten all year round. When the world is pacified, I will move to Jiaozhou."

Sun Ce opened his arms and stretched his waist. It was midsummer at noon. Although there was a cover to cover the sun and the sea was cooler than the land, he still felt stuffy and wanted to take off his coat and beat him bare-shirt, or just jump into the sea to swim for a while. But there were too many people on the boat and couldn't be too presumptuous. Even Guo Jia, who had always been free and easy, just pulled his clothes a little open.

Yu Fan did not take his seat, he held the railing and stared at the distance. His palms were a little numb and his heart was beating unscrupulously. Although the result had not come out yet, he had an ominous premonition when Sun Ce was holding the winning look.

The sky is a common sense that the earth is round and the place is well known. If even this is not true, the earth is really round as Sun Ce said, and he has studied the Yixue proof for many years and is just working behind closed doors, what should he do?

"Ah." Taishi Ci suddenly let out a soft cry, then turned his head to look at Yu Qiang, and a trace of sympathy flashed in his eyes.

Yu Feng's face turned pale. Although his eyesight was not as good as Taishi Ci, and although the huge tower ship was only a little bit at this time, he could still see clearly that the ship closest to the coast was slowly disappearing as if it was sinking into the water. First it was the hull, then Feilu, and then the sail painted in three colors.

The blue disappears first, then yellow, and finally red.

Everything was just as Sun Ce said, and it was unhappy at all.

Yu Fan kept silent, raised his arms and wiped the juice beads on his forehead with his sleeve.

Sun Quan shouted loudly. "The hull of Shengjie disappeared, only sails remain."

The boat was silent for a moment, and then there was a chirping sound of chattering. The soldiers looked at each other and whispered, and some even had the things around them tightly, fearing that they would suddenly float into the air.

When Sun Ce heard the discussion, he looked around, showed a smug smile, and looked at Yu Fan again. Yu Fan stood motionless, as if it had been petrified. Huang Yueying was on tiptoe and wanted to witness this sacred moment with her own eyes, but she read too many books and her eyesight was not as good as Taishi Ci. Yu Fan could no longer see the boat in the distance, so she could only stamp her feet depressedly.

"How could this happen?" Feng Wan leaned beside Sun Ce and pushed Sun Ce's arm. "If the earth is round, then we keep moving forward, wouldn't we slide down?"

"I don't know this, but I hope one day I can verify this inference with you." Sun Ce raised his eyebrows. "You will develop a larger and more stable ship earlier, and then we will be able to travel all over the world. This tower ship is not safe. If you really encounter wind and waves, you can knock it over with just one wave."

Feng Wan felt thoughtful, her wonderful eyes showed a desire, a little natural and stupid.

"How big a boat is it to the side of the ball?"

Sun Ce smiled but said nothing. As far as he knew, this was actually not a problem of large ships and small ships. Columbus discovered that the American ships were not big, at least much smaller than the treasure ships Zheng He voyage to the West, and may be similar to the current building ships. If he told them the characteristics of the sea ships and then asked them to go to Jiaozhou to see the ships of the Yishang, they would be able to build real sea ships in at most ten years.

But building a sea ship does not mean that it can kick off the prelude to the great voyage. He doesn't want to do a face-saving project like Zheng He's voyage to the West. He needs the mankind's democracy to go out to sea on his own initiative, seek profit or knowledge, and it's best to have both. He can push it, but he can't just spend money in it. Just like developing the South, there is no such motivation at present.

As for the current economic and technical strength of the man, there is no opponent with equal strength in the world. The reason why China is so arrogant is not because it is weak, but because it is too strong and has no opponent, so it has no motivation to look outward. Looking around, it is all wilderness, and geniuses are willing to take risks to sail.

What he wants to do is not a one-day effort, nor a one-day benefit. What he wants to do is to guide the elites of this era to be reborn from the ashes.

For example, Yu Fan in front of you.

Yu Fan was very smart and knowledgeable. He was one of the smartest people of this era, but the Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci-Sci

Unfortunately, this innovation was not good.

Academic history is the history of thought, and the history of thought is very subtle. It cannot be separated from the general public and requires real elites to guide him. Sun Ce has thoughts, but he does not have enough academic qualities, so there is no problem in slandering each other. If he establishes a new ideological system, he will be unable to do so.

He can only be a guide.

Sun Ce originally hoped for Yang Xiu, but Yang Xiu was from the court, and Sun Ce did not want to make wedding dresses for the court. Later, he relied on Gu Yong, but Gu Yong was too conservative. This person had no problem as a moral gentleman and lacked the courage to reform the past and make new things. As for Shen You and others, their academics were not top-notch and they were eager to make contributions, so they might not be able to do academic research. As for Zhang Hong, he had been famous for many years and had too great thinking inertia, which was difficult to change in a short period of time. He was not his choice from the beginning.

Yu Fan can accomplish such an important task. He was just thirty years old and was known as a madman, but only in Kuaiji, he was smart enough, had deep academic qualities, and had very good eloquence. It would be a pity not to be a thinker. Sun Ce spent so much effort and specially arranged such an experiment to reverse Yu Fan's thinking inertia. With his IQ, as long as he is in the right direction, he will soon gain a lot.

Only with the shrewd and pragmatic Yu Fan was reborn in the southeast can he go north and compete for hegemony.

Sun Ce looked at Yu Fan's back, just like a farmer looking at the heavy crops, his heart full of joy of harvest.

Yu Fan didn't speak until the two tower ships disappeared under the sea level one after another. The experiment was successfully completed. Sun Ce returned to the harbor. Yang Xiu, Ma Chao and others came to greet him. Yang Xiu's face was not very good, but compared with Yu Fan, he was still a little bit like a big witch. He didn't know much about Sun Ce and Yu Fan's details. For him, this was just that Sun Ce beat Yu Fan one more round. He didn't deal with him much. When he saw Yu Fan being defeated, he was more happy than shocked, and even a little gloating.

After getting ashore, Yu Fan left the noisy crowd, found a place alone, faced the sea, and sat quietly, allowing the evening breeze to blow up his clothes and blow his face.
