Chapter 26 The Charming Seabed
Seeing through but not telling, Xiang Yang could only shove rice into his mouth to cover up his emotions.
Because there are important things to do tomorrow morning, Xiang Yang didn't go to sea this evening after dinner.
Xiang Yang, who went to bed early, got up early the next morning, the sky was just getting dark, and Xiang Yang didn't even care about breakfast, so he walked out of the house amidst the crowing of cocks and stepping on the dew.
According to the agreement between Xiang Yang and Uncle Xiang, the fishing boat will be able to return to Qinglong Bend within this week, but the wharf of Qinglong Bend still needs to be dealt with.
Qinglong Bend itself has a wharf, and the berth is more than eight meters deep, which can fully accommodate Xiangyang's big fishing boat. Distance, loading and unloading space, warehouse area and surrounding openness.
The small pier at Qinglong Bend is useless except that the water depth of the berth has reached the minimum standard for a real pier.
The berth space, the number of berths, and the area of the storage yard are things that Xiang Yang has no ability to change in a short period of time, so he can only make do with it, but the loading and unloading space and the distance from the dock must be changed.
The cargo capacity of a gillnet fishing boat with a total length of 39.5 meters, a molded width of 7.1 meters, a molded height of 3.5 meters, a draft of 2.4 meters, and a total tonnage of 207 tons is very terrifying. The distance between docking is 0.1 meters. Every meter that the space increases requires an unimaginable amount of manpower to make up for it.
Referring to Uncle Xiang's suggestion, Xiang Yang chose to expand the Qinglongwan Wharf by purchasing a triangular steel frame and bamboo willow boards to build a unloading bridge next to the wharf.
Although the service life of the bamboo willow board and the triangular steel frame is limited, this can only be a short-term feasible method, but it is indeed the method with the lowest cost. The cash-strapped Xiang Yang chose it without hesitation. This method is used as a transition from a small pier to a large pier at Qinglongwan Wharf.
Both the bamboo willow board and the triangular steel frame were bought by Uncle Xiang, and the other party only delivered the goods to the town and Xiang Yang had to personally receive them.
In addition to receiving bamboo willow boards and triangular steel frames, Xiang Yang also needs to invite a team of construction workers back.
Xiang Yang hired a very professional construction team, not the kind of masons who build houses for people in the village. Every construction worker in the entire construction team has repaired railways or highways, and their professional quality is first-class.
It is very difficult to build such a unloading bridge beside the pier! Chen Fugen, the contractor in Huhai Town, looked at the engineering drawings handed over by Xiang Yang, especially after hearing that Xiang Yang had bought the building materials himself. I don't want to take this business.
How much does it cost? Xiang Yang asked directly.
This is an underwater operation. Our machines are completely useless. The entire project needs to be completed by manpower. Each triangle steel frame weighs tens of kilograms. At least four or five workers need to be dispatched at the same time to put a triangle steel frame together. Find an accurate location on the bottom of the sea and place it. No one will take up such a project without costing 40,000 to 50,000 yuan. Chen Fugen rolled up the blueprint in his hand and said.
I can give you 50,000, can you help me finish this project within a week?
Boss Xiang, you look down on me, Old Chen. Do you know about the high-speed rail? I can repair the high-speed rail tracks. How can it take a week for such a small project? Old Chen, I promise to help you fix it within three days. As for the quality, Boss Xiang You can ask anyone you want.
.
Xiang Yang took a deep look at Chen Fugen and finally chose to sign a contract with the other party. Maybe Chen Fugen's asking price was a bit high, but Xiang Yang didn't think that 50,000 yuan was very expensive. There are some places outside to decorate a house. It costs hundreds of thousands, and it is more difficult to build a willow bridge beside the pier than to decorate a house.
After leaving Chen Fugen, Xiang Yang went to the cement factory to buy some cement and slate.
The dock unloading space at Qinglong Bend is also too small. Xiang Yang needs some expansion. This is very simple. First, use sandbags to spread a layer on the beach, level it, pour cement and then cover it with stone slabs.
The construction on the pier was in full swing, Xiang Yang didn't go out to sea for the next two days, and stayed at the pier from morning to night every day.
Two days later, the two batches of diving equipment purchased by Xiang Yang and Zuo Village Chief arrived almost at the same time.
The villagers who bought the diving equipment couldn't put it down when they received the brand-new diving equipment.
Xiang Yang stopped a few fishermen who were about to sink into the sea with their oxygen tanks on their backs, Do you know how to use diving equipment? Sink into the sea with your back on your back?
Xiaoyang, didn't we see you using diving equipment like this before? The fishermen stopped by Xiang Yang all laughed.
Xiang Yang suddenly had a black line on his head, yes, every time Xiang Yang went ashore, he carried the oxygen tank on his back, but the tank was connected to a breathing mask, okay? What's wrong with jumping into the water like the villagers with oxygen cylinders on their backs without a breathing mask? Don't think it's sinking fast enough?
This diving equipment is used in this way. Xiang Yang demonstrated for the first time that the two ends of the oxygen tube are connected to the oxygen cylinder and the breathing mask respectively, It's true that the oxygen cylinder is carried on the back, but you have to rely on this breathing mask to breathe underwater .”
The fisherman looked at Xiang Yang eagerly and nodded like a student listening to a teacher.
After teaching the fishermen how to use diving equipment and telling the fishermen to dive in a group of at least two people, each dive should not be too long, and every time it exceeds a few minutes, they must rise to the surface once. After that, Xiang Yang ignored it. Fishermen, there is no such thing as special underwater training. At most, they are not used to carrying diving equipment at the beginning, and it will be fine when they get used to it.
Xiang Yang planned to wait for the fishermen to adapt to the diving area for two days before taking them to the sea area where saxifraga mushrooms grow.
Even though they haven't seen the sea area rich in saxifraga mushrooms mentioned by Xiang Yang, the fishermen were also surprised by the charming scene of Qinglong Bend.
The fishermen who dived into the bottom of the sea only feel that they have entered another world completely. The unknown mystery of the bottom of the sea is being lifted to them bit by bit. Various sea creatures of different types, colors and shapes swim lively. Among the lush aquatic plants moving on the seabed of Qinglong Bend.
From the lush seaweed that can't be seen at a glance, the huge number of fish, shellfish, swimming crabs, large lobsters, etc. make the entire seabed of Qinglong Bend look full of vitality.
Sent it, posted it, it's no wonder Brother Yang can return with a full load every time he goes to sea. It turns out that the fishery resources on the bottom of the sea are so rich. Fatty Zuo, wearing diving equipment, floated up after diving on the bottom of the sea for a while, holding one in each hand. Portunus and a big lobster danced happily.
