October 8, 1866, Venice.
Heixinggen Shipyard.
Today is Ernst's second visit to Venice, and unlike last time, it's already October now, but the weather is transitioning from hot to cold, so it's quite cool and comfortable.
Because he received news the day before yesterday that the fifth new ship is ready, and now the ships Ernst ordered have been completed at the dock, just waiting to be launched.
So this time Ernst is here to attend the launch ceremony of his own fleet. Heixinggen Shipyard has always been taking other orders, so it can't fully focus on building ships for Ernst. Every cycle, only one dock is left for Ernst's own company, as this allows the shipyard to operate smoothly.
This time, led by employees of Heixinggen Shipyard, Ernst easily found his way to the shipyard's dock, accompanied by the ship designer and technical director.
