第二十六集第五章童怜的提议(2/12)

                                                                        蓬勃大气的官船规模之大，恐怕是当世第一。即使吃了一辈子船饭的人，都震惊世上竟然有能打造出如此神物的能工巧匠。
                                                                                                                                                                巨大的官船顺流而下，却是有一些小如叶子般的快船悄悄跟在身后。等到大船开入漠阳湖的航道时，一直躲躲闪闪的小快船这时才露出狰狞面目。
                                                                                                                                                                十余艘载满壮汉的小船飞速朝官船围拢过来，不少人脸上浮现贪婪的兴奋。
                                                                                                                                                                这艘大船是河北抽调过来的，由数十个对于航海有狂热痴迷的船匠，耗时近半年打造出的巨无霸。经过无数次的失败，解决了平衡、动力等一连串的问题，再加上其他工匠的帮助，才成功造出他们梦寐以求的第一艘巨船。
                                                                                                                                                                虽然只是不稳定的雏形，也让众人为之兴奋。沉重大船前行的动力一直是这个年代难以解决的问题。
                                                                                                                                                                如果是靠人工划的话，不仅费时费力而且持续性不佳，效果根本不能让人满意。耗费太多人力支持船的运行，也违背众人追求的初衷。
                                                                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                                                                
                                                                                                                                                                后来一些工匠在许平若有若无的暗示下，慢慢研究齿轮和活塞驱动带来的动力，粗糙地打造一批。一而再、再而三的试验下，终于解决船的动力问题。
                                                                                                                                                                船舱内密密麻麻全是人们看不懂的运转活动，仅需十多个人
