Renault''s body soared into the air and fell into the open hull.

At this time, the bottom of the ship has been filled with sections of metal beams of different specifications, with more than 200 pieces.

One of the longest and thickest metal beams is more than 6 meters in length, nearly half a meter in width, and the cross section is close to "I" shape. They are connected from head to tail and are placed from bow to stern.

These metal beams will be used to strengthen the keel.

Please note that it''s just "strengthening", not "Replacing".

Replacement is impossible, because in shipbuilding, the keel is often the first part to be completed. To completely replace a keel, it is better to rebuild a ship.

The method of strengthening is also very simple, that is to completely wrap the keel with metal beams, and then weld the metal beams together, so as to strengthen the strength of the keel.

There are also a lot of metal beams in other places. They are not as wide as the keel strengthening beams. They will be used to strengthen the side keel, dragon bars and ribs.

With the support of metal beams, the keel and main load-bearing frame of the whole ship will be greatly strengthened, and the ship will be stronger. In terms of the earth, the ship will become an "iron ribbed wooden hull ship".

Although this will cause the ship''s no-load displacement to increase by tens of tons and the carrying capacity to decrease, it is worth it.

In the storm season, once the ship goes deep into the ocean, the probability of encountering turbulence will be greatly improved, and the stronger hull will greatly improve the navigation safety.

As a matter of fact, if it wasn''t for Odin, a hot magic sailing ship, the territory could not be separated from Odin at present. Renault would certainly drag Odin into the dock.

However, once the renovation of Haichao is completed, Odin will also be put into dock, although the renovation is more difficult, and the deck needs to be removed to strengthen the keel.

"Lord Big My Lord, please Please put These two paragraphs... "

Facing Renault, the shipbuilder was too nervous to say anything. He was specially assigned by the shipyard supervisor to guide the Lord how to weld.

Looking at this middle-aged craftsman with slight white temples and red face, Renault tried to put on an amiable appearance.

He patted the craftsman on the shoulder. Wen Yan said, "don''t worry, speak slowly..."

The craftsman took a deep breath and spoke smoothly: "Lord, please First, the bow of the ship Two metal beams are laid on the keel and connected together.... "

Renault nodded and raised his right hand slightly. The two metal beams flew up silently. In the blink of an eye, they melted into red liquid, covered the surface of the wooden keel, and slowly wriggled.

The craftsmen on one side were stunned.

Although they have been instructed for a long time, "hearing" and "seeing" are totally different things. Seeing the extremely hard metal turn into liquid and flow to the surface of the keel, the red hot surface cools into silver white again, and the craftsman''s eyes almost fall off.

At this moment, countless questions arose in his mind.

Why can metals melt without heating?

Why doesn''t the molten metal ignite the wood when the temperature is so high?

However, it is absolutely not allowed to ask questions. Is it a craftsman''s business, Lord?

Even if you can ask, the craftsman doesn''t have the courage to ask.

When Renault finished laying, he turned to look at the craftsman. He was still staring at the bright metal beam, but he didn''t recover from the shock.

Renault couldn''t help laughing: "Hey, man, after the metal beam is laid, you have plenty of time to watch it slowly..."

The craftsman came back to himself with a cry of "ah". He bowed in a hurry, and his face turned red again: "Lord, big My Lord, please Forgive... "

Renault raised his hand to interrupt him, and asked with a smile, "should we lay these six next, right?"

As soon as the voice fell, six metal beams rose from the ground and shuttled through the air.

The craftsman was stunned for a while. He was instructed to "lay 2 pieces at a time". Obviously, the Lord''s request was far beyond his expectation. However, after checking the keel, he nodded.

Renault immediately gently put his right hand, and the six metal beams melted into molten steel at the same time, and evenly scattered on the keel surface.

After the "multi thread" operation was started, the laying efficiency suddenly increased. In just 5 minutes, more than 200 metal beams were laid.

It is only the first step to strengthen the keel of the ship, and then there is the second step, which is to wrap the hull with iron.

It''s the so-called tin boat.

On the one hand, the purpose of this is to increase the strength of the hull, on the other hand, it can prevent the seawater from corroding the wood and greatly extend the life of the hull.

In this step, the metal Renault intends to use is not ordinary steel, but iron tortoise stainless steel!

Last time, Renault hunted dozens of iron turtles in Tiejia island and obtained a batch of iron turtle shells, which are used here.Originally, he intended to use stainless steel made by his own company, but unfortunately, in the process of analyzing iron tortoise stainless steel in the material laboratory, he found that it contained an unknown metal, and even a group of magic mechanics did not know what metal it was.

Until we find out the material and find the corresponding mineral deposit, the mass production plan of stainless steel can only stay in the imagination.

On earth, there have been tin ships.

For example, little Japan''s armored ship is the most typical one.

It can also be seen from the name that little Japan likes to brag. In fact, the real armored ship refers to the ship''s hull covered with steel armor, which can resist the thick armor designed by artillery, rather than a thin sheet of iron.

The process of sticking iron sheet on the hull is also very simple, which is no different from "body film".

The process of applying film on the hull is very unskilled, but the sensation caused by it is very strong.

Because there were too many spectators on the scene, there were dozens of shipbuilders alone, dozens of additional workers employed, plus more than a dozen staff members of the navigation department and island guards. The total number was more than 120.

When the LORD raised his hand to "summon" the first turtle shell, the black head behind him swayed his head and followed the flight path of the turtle shell.

When the shell was melted, the crowd exclaimed in unison.

When the molten metal is spread into a 2 mm thick thin plate, more than a hundred exhaust sounds converge into a loud whistling sound.

When the sheet is covered on the hull, "dubbing" changes back to exclamation, but the sound goes up a step.

If you see this magical scene for the first time, you can understand the reaction, but what makes Renault speechless is that the film application program has been repeated more than ten times, which helps the audience still enjoy watching with relish, and the "dubbing" also follows the cycle over and over again.

Jean Reno make complaints about himself. MMP, a group of woodlouse, is it not too tired to see so many times?

Because the film is an external operation, there is no shelter, and there is enough space for application, so the speed is amazing. In just 2 minutes, Renault finished the film work.

Thanks to the powerful control ability of mind power, the silver white sheet metal surface is quite smooth, and people can be seen clearly.

When Renault welded the different metal plates together, it did not leave any trace and looked like a complete metal plate.

As a result, the huge hull looked as if it had been sprayed with a layer of silver powder, which was extremely beautiful and eye-catching.

At this moment, looking at the fantastic scene, everyone can''t help holding their breath.

for this group of woodlouse, this scene is too fantastic, the lord lord walked around the boat, a little mottled and ugly hull became so bright.

This seemingly ordinary wooden boat has also changed into a stunning "silver ship".

Any ship in the world, in front of this "silver mirror ship", is rubbish in rubbish.

"Ugly duckling to swan" is not enough to describe this incredible change, which is just like the powerful magic of "turning stone into gold".

Lord''s trick is really amazing!
