Chapter 2178: The Strongest Green Tea in History (Part 3)
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
****Time has flown by, and unknowingly, it has been some time since Wang Ningxi and Wang Fugui visited the Immortal Dynasty.
Da Qian.
Longzuo County, Changning, Changning Guard.
Wanghai Town.
Wanghai Town, similar to Xinping Town and Morning Glow Town, was developed during the Wang family’s second expansion beyond the region.
In terms of fame, Wanghai Town cannot be compared with Xinping Town, which serves as a center for foreign trade. In terms of resources, Wanghai Town does not boast anything particularly noteworthy, but for the Changning Wang family, its importance is no less than that of Xinping Town.
This is because it is the location of Wang’s Shipbuilding Headquarters.
Wang’s Shipbuilding Headquarters, essentially, is where the Wang family builds their ships. The Wang family’s Ironclad Sea Ships are constructed here.
Although Wanghai Town is coastal, its geographical position means most of the coast consists of mudflats. Only to the north is there a slightly deeper port, though small and unable to accommodate a large number of ships, it suffices as a shipyard.
Initially, Wang’s Shipbuilding Headquarters was merely a branch of the Wang Clan Research Institute. At that time, the Ironclad Ship was still in the research and development phase, requiring a coastal port as a shipyard and research base. Thus, this port was chosen, and the branch relocated here.
Subsequently, as the Wang family’s Ironclad Ship was introduced and the manufacturing process matured, Wang’s Shipbuilding Headquarters gradually became independent from the research institute, and began handling orders from the Da Qian Imperial Household and other prominent families.
Yet, even so, within the Shipbuilding Headquarters, a core research department remains, named the Ship Research Institute, still under the jurisdiction of the Wang Clan Research Institute.
This Ship Research Institute is located in an unremarkable shipyard near the port of Wanghai Town.
From the outside, this shipyard looks no different from the surrounding Wang family’s shipyards, appearing just as an ordinary shipyard.
But inside the shipyard, it is quite a different story.
Inside the shipyard, there is a seemingly bottomless giant pit.
In the pit, a massive giant vessel is quietly docked. Countless staff are busily moving about the vessel, back and forth, resembling worker ants transporting materials within an ant nest.
Numerous Wang family’s glass lamps hang on the dome, their transparent and bright light illuminating the entire shipyard, yet only lighting up the upper half of the vessel. The lower half remains engulfed in shadow, giving it an appearance akin to a prehistoric beast, when viewed from afar.
This giant vessel is the same Kunmu Giant Vessel that was captured from Mozhao Country.
Since being captured, this vessel has remained docked in this shipyard for the Wang family’s researchers to study and analyze, a process that has already lasted several years.
On the platform beside the shipyard, there is a row of neatly arranged buildings, a place where the staff of the Ship Research Institute work and conduct research. It even includes designated dormitories for the staff, a mini-mall, and entertainment center, all facilities being quite complete.
At this moment.
In an office within the buildings, King Shin is holding a pen, calculating the material consumption and staff salaries for the first half of the year.
As Wang Zongrui’s eldest son, he ranks thirteenth in the "Shi" generation, now being over one hundred and forty years old, a full fifteen years older than his sister Wang Ying Xuan.
His personality has always been rather quiet, a stark contrast to the animated and flamboyant Wang Ying Xuan, representing two extremes.
Among Wang Shouzhe’s numerous grandchildren, King Shin’s performance has not been particularly outstanding.
Of course, this is based on the Wang family internally. Out in the broader world, with his qualifications, he certainly can be considered a "young hero" and "talented youth."
However, King Shin has a particularly notable advantage: he is meticulous and dependable. Tasks assigned to him are almost never mistaken. Even for matters beyond his capabilities, he finds suitable individuals to assist, ensuring successful completion of tasks.
Due to this, after graduating from the Clan School, he was favored by Wang Liyue and was brought to the Wang Clan Research Institute as her assistant.
Today, after many years, he has already become a Wang’s Elite clan member capable of taking charge independently.
This Ship Research Institute is currently under his management, handling material circulation, personnel transfers, and salary distributions, all passing through his hands.
Just as King Shin is engrossed in accounting.
Suddenly.
A young clan member bursts in, pushing the door recklessly and shouting, "Thirteenth brother! Big news! Big news!"
King Shin’s data calculations were interrupted by the shouting, immediately breaking his train of thought.
He frowned unhappily, looking up to see the intruder, and his expression quickly shifted to one of resignation: "Forty-first brother, haven’t I told you not to disturb me when I’m accounting? What’s the matter this time?"
This intruder is named Wang Shi Lei, a descendant of the Ninth Grand Elder, Wang Shoucheng.
Since Wang Shoucheng is the youngest in the "Shou" generation, his children naturally have lower age but higher seniority. Wang Shi Lei’s father, Wang Zongxuan, is the youngest in the "Zong" generation, and for him, it’s the same in the "Shi" generation as well.
Despite calling King Shin brother, in reality, there is nearly a fifty-year age gap between them.
