Seeing that the world's navigation industry is developing very quickly, Link knew that there were no giants in this world. Link's world's seaside is the territory of giants, and the shipping industry is limited to inland shipping.

In addition to having huge bodies and strength, the giant clan is also very curious. The final result of building a ship and going to sea is definitely the giant trampling to death.

There are also giant dragons in this magical world, but they are treated as a disaster by humans. The giant dragons here have to sleep for decades before eating once, and they lose some people and animals in decades, which has little impact on humans.

For humans in this world, typhoons, floods, shipwrecks, earthquakes, wars between humans, etc., all dead people are more harmful than dragons.

In this world, the most profitable industry is emerging industries, that is, cross-continental trade. If you get a sea boat, you will get several times the profit when you go back to the New World.

In the eyes of the Old Road, the New World is a place full of gold, where gold, gems, fur, ivory, mahogany and other ships are transported back to the Old World, bringing huge profits and legendary emerging wealthy businessmen.

In many coastal cities and countries, the whole country has already invested in buying ships and marched into the new continent.

This craze for going overseas reminded Link of the East Indian companies that appeared in the history of another small world.

One of the reasons why the New World is so popular is that except for a few giant dragons, the monsters in the Old World have been almost extinct by humans. The humans here have established an endangered monster protection committee many years ago. However, the protection scope of this endangered monster is limited to the Old World.

It is precisely in order to develop the New World Warcraft resources that this kind of protection committee was established.

Link is the place where the Kingdom of Zeland in the Old Continent is called Jill City. Going to the New Continent along the River of Zell City outside Jill City, you can go to the New Continent. Jill City has also become one of the cities that emerged with this great era of geographical discovery.

Another thing is that the kings in the world here are all empty kings. All administrative orders come from the prime minister and the cabinet. The king does not even need to stamp and sign. The main function of the king here is to receive foreign leaders.

This is caused by the fact that when the kings here were founded, they might have been magicians or sacred land powerhouses. They could use their own strength to suppress the scene, but they could not guarantee that their next generation or even each generation of kings were magicians or sacred land powerhouses. These kings who are not strong can’t suppress the scene.

In order to prevent the powerful ministers from usurping the throne, the system of virtual kings was simply implemented. The so-called king was the country to support a family of idle people. The real strong man did not look down on such a position of eating and raising rice.

As for the old-style nobles, they either went bankrupt one after another, or they were transforming towards new types of businessmen.

The income of the old-style aristocrats comes from the income from land rent. Of course, the aristocrats themselves do not collect rent. There is a system of tax collectors here. The tax collectors and the aristocrats first agree on a price. Then the tax collectors hand over the income from land tax to the aristocrats for the whole year, and finally the tax collectors themselves take the contract to collect taxes - in theory, they will have to pay if they cannot collect it.

However, in fact, almost all taxpayers have made a lot of money, because taxpayers can get the contract and let the farmers in the territory plant more cash crops, and even open land and find minerals.

During this period, Link developed the habit of going to the dock of the Xilan River to drink tea every day. There are ships docked here almost every day. Of course, sea boats are above three masts and above three masts. Because the shipping of the Xilan River is well developed, many fishing boats and mainland cargo ships also docked here to unload cargo.

This bustling Zeeland pier feeds a large number of loaders and shipbuilders.

Link asked while drinking tea and found out that the shipyard here had been scheduled for three years.

Even if Link can spend money to build a ship, it will take three years to start building his own ship.

During this period, Link also paid to go to the dock to take a look. There was a five-mass sailboat under construction. This five-mass sailboat uses steel as a keel. The total designed weight exceeds 3,000 tons, and the designed load weight is up to 5,000 tons. The length of the ship is more than 130 meters.

There is also a paddle sailboat with three masts but steam power as auxiliary. The disadvantage of steam power is that it needs to constantly burn coal or wood to ensure power. The advantage is that it does not need to consider the influence of the monsoon and can cross the ocean at any time.

Some urgent supplies and personnel from the old and new continents can be transported by paddle boats. As for pure sailboats, they have to travel along the monsoon once a year.

It seems that it is a general trend to replace sailboats with steam powered ships in the future.

However, the designers of the style ships of this era were not discouraged because the style ships also had an advantage that steam-powered ships could not match, that is, the price was cheap.

The price and cost of shipping is still very important. In addition to some goods that cannot be preserved for a long time, the price of transporting by sailing ships is even lower. Sailing ships do not need to eat coal and wood every day. The cargo volume of steam-powered ships built now is only a few hundred tons. They can only be regarded as an auxiliary to sailing ships.

Moreover, steam engines are machinery after all, and there is a possibility of failure at sea. Therefore, there are no pure steam-powered ships yet. No matter how brave the steam-powered ship designers have to leave one or two masts on the ship to ensure that the ship can still move after it is gone from coal, wood and failure.

Link stayed in a hotel outside the city for a month and finally got his identity card accompanied by the tavern owner.

The identity information here is Kabilink's adventurer information card in the world of adventurer. Just fill in your name, and then print out Link's avatar and display the sin value under the action of the magic weapon.

When Link arrived here, he had never killed anyone or committed a crime. The value of sin was of course 0.

In order to make arrangements in this world, after getting the identity information card, Link first went from the third small world to the first small world in the technology plane.

When he got home, Link opened a bottle of ice coke and drank it, and lay down in the bedroom to rest.

When Xiaoli and Katie came back from get off work, they saw Link: "Hey, you didn't say you would have to come back a year, it's only two months."

Link: "I'll come back early if you have something to do, I have problems."

"No problem, you are the boss. The boss is always right."

Xiaoli wanted to read the account book for Link, but Link waved her hand: "There is no need to read the account book. If there is something else, I want to build a ship."

Katie: "We want to build luxury yachts, right? I've said a long time ago, no rich people have luxury yachts."

Link: "It's not a luxury yacht, it's a mixed steam powered sail paddle."

Katie: "Which shipyard can build such an old ship?"

Link: "You told the shipyard that money is not a problem. See if there is anyone who wants to go ahead."

"I'll try it."
