"O Chief Divine, you're asking how this ship is built? Then it depends on the shipbuilding method... What is the shipbuilding method? It's the rules for building ships... Witness the Chief Divine! This two-hundred-material sand ship has no central keel, only side-joined auxiliary keels. So, using side keels as reference, various components are constructed proportionally and finally assembled together... That's its shipbuilding method!"
"Be more specific? Sure, I can recite the whole thing from start to finish!... The ship's deck, from bow to stern, is 6 zhang 1 chi (approximately 20 meters), and the ship's bottom, from bow to where there's no board, is exactly 4 zhang (13.3 meters). The auxiliary keel is located in the middle, approximately 5 zhang 1 chi (17 meters)... Using 5 zhang as the measure, both masts on the deck bear full vertical sails. The main mast is the same length as the measure, about 5 zhang, and the foremast is eight-tenths of the measure, about 4 zhang..."
