City: I'm Really Not Rich
Chapter 651 Disagreement!\r
Zhang Chen turned around, stopped at the empty bow, gestured twice, and asked.
As soon as this remark came out, Rokkowski's face suddenly became a little bit unable to hang, and he laughed twice.
"That's all outdated thinking, the current ships rely on the power of science, not the gods, and they don't need a head portrait, so it doesn't matter.
"Oh, is that so?"
Zhang Chen is a little confused, is this Mr. Rokkowski a staunch atheist?
Even if everyone knows that the ship relies on modern technology, there is no need to boycott the statue of the ship, right?
Even if you don't ask for luck, it's okay to look good.
"No, sir, I disagree with you!
After listening to the translation, Gadot next to him immediately shouted.
"The statue of the ship is not only hoping to use the power of the gods, but also the spirit of the ship, the flag and belief, I have never heard of the shipyard abandoning the practice of using the statue.
"Captain, I think this gentleman has deceived you"||!39
Gadot is very calm in other matters, except for matters related to the ship, she can't rub a bit of sand.
Hearing Rokkowski say that the head portrait is useless, the girl immediately exploded.
Benjamin and old Rex next to him also looked at Rokkowski with a bewildered look. They had just arrived from the military factory.
"Yeah, Rove. We've never heard of the fact that with modern technology there's no need for a bowhead."
"What the hell is going on with you!"
Rokkowski's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and in such a cold Maoqiu country outdoors, his clothes were soaked.
He originally thought that Zhang Chen was a young man from the empire who had never been in contact with ships, so he wouldn't notice this.
"Well, there's actually a reason for that."
Rokkowski explained with a sad face.
It turns out that the installation of the head statue is much more troublesome than expected, and it is not like other parts to be installed on the ship.
For the head portrait, making is only the first step.
The second step is to need the blessing of the gods.
It is similar to the consecration of Buddhism, but the ritual steps are slightly more.
There are sea gods dedicated to the North Country. According to their legends, the servants of the sea gods are all born from the old sailors who have crossed the ocean without dying.
They were all men who had seen miracles at sea, and all the blessed heads of ships had the power to protect the ships.
In fact, the inheritance is traced back because it was not easy to seek a life at sea in the past, and there was no guarantee. Most sailors died before they were old.
And those sailors who were lucky enough to survive to old age also lived very hard because they did not have the skills to live on land and did not have the physical strength to go to sea.
In order to ensure the sailor's life in old age, people in the past made up such a legend about him.
So that those old sailors can rely on the blessing of the head statue after retirement.
Over time, this organization (Did Zhao) was unknowingly known as a myth. It was originally a sympathy from the juniors to the seniors, and the blessings of the seniors to the juniors, but it turned into a money-making business.
The people who specialized in making the head statues also changed from real old sailors to merchants and magicians.
Rokkowski spends hundreds of dollars a year on the statue alone, and those people cost only a few dollars in total.
He himself didn't want to cooperate with those people for a long time, but he couldn't do anything about them.
