Chapter 61: Building a Fishing Raft (Please Read On)

The winter solstice arrives and the weather turns cold.

The sea breeze was blowing, and my ears were a bit cold.

But Li Duoyu and Chen Wenchao worked so hard that they wore short sleeves.

It only took the two of them three hours.

All these more than one hundred moso bamboos were sawed into a length of about eight meters.

Make a bundle of twenty.

Roll them all into the sea.

Immediately afterwards, Li Duoyu and Chen Wenchao got on the small sampan and first pulled the bundled moso bamboo to the kelp breeding raft.

Not far after the sampan set sail, Li Duoyu saw the sea area where team leader Wang Xianjun was driving piles to raise kelp.

That sea area is indeed good for raising kelp. It is no worse than the one he used here. In terms of kelp farming conditions, it should be the best in the sea area around Dandan Island.

But Li Duoyu remembered that there were several kelp farmers in his previous life who suffered disaster in that place.

That sea area is a bit close to Badwater Bay, and occasionally there are phenomena that are difficult to understand scientifically.

Every few years, there are three or four mad dog waves. If they happen to overlap with a big tide, the destructive power will become very great.

Fishing boats may be capsized.

Kelp farming rafts also have a high probability of being unplugged.

Li Duoyu, who has always been kind, wanted to tell the captain, but he felt that even if he told him, others might not believe him.

You might even suspect him of having bad motives.

Moreover, scenes like a mad dog wave increasing the tide are indeed very rare. They only happen once every few years. Maybe someone is lucky.

Li Duoyu thought about it and decided not to stick to other people's cold butts.

At this moment, Chen Wenchao looked at Li Duoyu in confusion: "Brother Yu, what are you laughing at? Why are you smiling so happily?"

Li Duoyu was startled for a moment, touched his cheek, frowned and said: "Tugou, did I really laugh just now?"

Chen Wenchao nodded.

"I laughed, and I laughed so horribly."

"That's it." Li Duoyu sighed with emotion.

Even if he has been a human being for two lifetimes, this Taoist practice is still not enough. Unlike those leaders, who always keep their emotions and anger hidden.

Drag moso bamboo behind the kelp culture raft.

Li Duoyu began to tie up the fishing raft.

The wooden piles that were reserved by the piling master before can finally be put to use now.

The moso bamboo does not float directly on the sea, but is fixed on a plastic foam float. This not only effectively prevents seawater from corroding the moso bamboo, but also protects the structure of the entire fishing raft.

for the entire fishing raft structure.

The wooden piles, pile ropes and plastic floats driven to the seabed are the foundation of the fishing raft, while the moso bamboo is the frame of the fishing raft.

For Li Duoyu, building a fishing raft is not difficult. The most important thing is patience. Every step should be done as carefully as possible, which can reduce a lot of trouble.

Li Duoyu and Chen Wenchao first tied a moso bamboo to a plastic foam floating ball, and then tied the other end.

Next, it’s not that difficult.

Just like building a frame.

Fix the moso bamboos on the nine plastic floating balls by crossing them horizontally and vertically.

The only thing to note is.

The pile ropes on the bottom of the sea cannot go straight up or down, otherwise the piles will be easily pulled out and the fishing raft will be very wobbly.

It is best for the pile rope and the fishing raft to form an angle of less than 45°. Simply put, the farther the pile head is from the fishing raft, the harder it is to pull out the pile.

At this moment, Chen Wenchao happened to ask: "Brother Yu, I have always been curious about why the fishing rafts can't pull up the wooden piles when the waves are so big."

Hear the question.

Li Duoyu didn't know how to answer for a while.

In the previous life, there was also a graduate student who specialized in the structure of fish steaks. He went to their village and popularized the scientific principles of fish steaks to them.

But it's too complicated.

What is the load-bearing capacity that the fishing raft can bear, the pulling force that the pile rope can bear, and what kind of wind force it can bear.

He only has a junior high school diploma.

Where can I understand.

However, Li Duoyu had his own way of understanding. He used a piece of wood and a rope to demonstrate to Chen Wenchao:

"The reason is very simple."

"When I insert this wooden stick tied with a rope into the soil, and you pull it vertically, will it be easy to pull it out of the soil?"

Chen Wenchao nodded and said:

"You can pull it out in two clicks."

Li Duoyu then said: "If you pull it diagonally, can you still pull it?"

Chen Wenchao suddenly realized.

"By the way, Brother Yu, haven't you been playing with us since childhood? Where did you learn these things?"

Li Duoyu said lightly.

"I'm different from you. I have eyes that are good at discovering science."

The corner of Chen Wenchao's mouth twitched. He really didn't feel this, but Brother Yu did have eyes that were good at distinguishing "legs" in the past.

After Li Duoyu and Chen Wenchao made several trips to and from the dock, they finally built the general frame of the fishing raft.

Chen Wenchao walked in disbelief and jumped up and down on the fishing raft, and asked: "Brother Yu, what are you going to do with the holes left in the middle?"

"Hang a net and plan to use it to raise fish."

Chen Wenchao was a little confused: "Fish are so cheap, is it necessary to raise them?"

"If you keep it, keep it. It's a good idea."

"makes sense."

Li Duoyu did not tell Tugou that he planned to raise some more expensive fish temporarily, such as the four sea fish, which he would definitely not raise.

He plans to raise some lobsters, groupers and the like. These creatures usually live near reefs.

Trawlers and sticky nets are afraid of that kind of place, so the catch is relatively small, and the price is naturally higher.

Li Duoyu plans to go fishing on the reef when he is free.

After all, his wife is pregnant.

There are not many entertainment projects in this era.

When he is free, he will just be a fisherman to relieve his stress. After all, in this era, it is difficult to catch nothing.

If the fishermen catch live fish, he can also buy them and temporarily raise them on this fishing raft. When they grow bigger, they will be transported to the city to sell.

The first day.

Li Duoyu and the local dog Chen Wenchao first built the framework of the fishing raft.

The second day.

Li Duoyu began to build a house on the fishing raft. Like the Lianjia boat people, they would build a very large house.

Some houses even have three bedrooms and a living room, which are no worse than those on land.

However, Li Duoyu only used it to temporarily shelter from the rain and rest, so there was no need to spend so much energy and money.

It took three days in total.

Li Duoyu and Tu Gou finally built a bamboo house of about ten square meters, with a gable roof covered with tarpaulin.

After the bamboo house was built.

Li Duoyu nailed the wooden sign given to him by the Fisheries Research Institute to the bamboo house of the fishing raft.

Tu Gou lay in the bamboo house excitedly and said, "Brother Yu, don't you think this room is missing something?"

Li Duoyu glanced at the empty room. There was nothing here, almost nothing.

"There's not enough beds."

Tugou grinned: "On the sea, closing the door and lying on the bed is so cool."

"You don't even have a partner, how can you be so cool."

Hearing this, Chen Wenchao sat up suddenly and said seriously: "Brother Yu, do you still remember Liu Xiaolan next door to my house?"

"The one with a big butt?"

Chen Wenchao nodded: "Yes, it's the one with a big butt. She seems to be interested in me recently."

"Brother Yu, after we confirm our relationship, can you lend me your fishing raft?"

"It's definitely okay to use it, just don't get it dirty."

"That won't happen."

Li Duoyu kept thinking about the memories related to Liu Xiaolan.

In the previous life, this woman seemed to be quite powerful. She changed two or three husbands before she was 40 years old.

Li Duoyu glanced at the thin Chen Wenchao and was really worried that he couldn't control that woman!
