Godly Fisherman - Chapter 1928
“My dear, why don’t we go straight home?” Emilia asked curiously.
Xiao Peng said: “We have to go to the shipyard first. Now, here it is!”
“Why are you going to the shipyard?” Emilia asked puzzledly.
Xiao Peng landed the helicopter: “Now the’Vladimir’ is being maintained here, I’m going to see the progress of the maintenance.”
“Maintenance?” Emilia asked puzzledly.
Xiao Peng nodded: “Yes. Do you think the ship should not be maintained? The machinery inside is okay. The most important thing is the hull maintenance. Now, the Vladimir is in that dock! Go, I’ll take you to take a look. !!!”
Xiao Peng and the others got off the helicopter. At this time, a man in a suit greeted him. Xiao Peng introduced to Emilia: “Emilia, let me introduce you. This is Manager Gao. My first ship is to find He bought it, and now all our boats are maintained here. Manager Gao, this is my fiancee Emilia.”
Manager Gao shook hands with Emilia and said, “Looking forward to Miss Emilia is beautiful, and I see it today.”
Emilia smiled and said: “Manager Gao is polite. I also want to thank you for taking care of our fishery.”
Manager Gao shook his head and said: “Why do I take care of Boss Xiao? It is clear that Boss Xiao takes care of me. Now that the competition in the shipbuilding industry is so fierce, it is not easy to get orders. I can get the maintenance of all the ships of Qianliyan. Ah, this is already a big business. Okay, now Dock 4 is almost exclusively for you Qianliyan.”
Almost all shipyards do not open for three years, but only for three years. Although ship maintenance is inconspicuous, it is a business that the shipyard must not miss. However, most ship owners are responsible for their own maintenance. Few, like Xiao Peng, directly send their ships to the shipyard for maintenance, so for the shipyard, this is really sending money.
Xiao Peng waved his hand: “Manager Gao, let’s not be polite to each other. How about the Vladimir?”
Manager Gao shook his head and said: “Not very good, you can see for yourself.”
Several people walked to the No. 4 dock. The water in the dock was empty. The Vladimir was fixed on a steel frame. After seeing it clearly, Emilia covered her mouth and exclaimed: “My God! How could this be?”
I saw that the waterline of the Vladimir was full of various parasites.
Xiao Peng smiled and said: “This is normal. Barnacles, sea anemones, seaweeds, and shellfish will parasitize the hull of the ship, and the more parasitic the more, the ship needs to clean up these parasites on time. This kind of cleaning The condition of the bottom of the ship is definitely a nightmare of intensive phobia.”
Manager Gao nodded and said: “I originally came from the navy. Our navy has the’three major fatigues’. They are scraping the bottom of the ship, moving artillery shells, and cleaning the oil tank. The most troublesome thing here is’scraping the bottom of the ship’.”
Xiao Peng said: “Emilia, our fishing boat does not need to carry shells, but the other two are tiring enough. We can still do the scraping of the bottom of the boat. The job of cleaning the oil tank is best left to professionals.”
Emilia asked puzzledly: “Why do these parasites need to be cleaned up?”
Xiao Peng explained: “Don’t underestimate the weight of these parasites. They can make the ship heavier and deepen the draft, which will affect the safety of the ship. In addition, do you think the hull is streamlined? This is because of all vehicles. Here, it is the ship that faces the most resistance, and these parasites will further increase the sailing resistance. As in the current situation, we will waste one-tenth of our ship’s power! Most critically, these parasites will secrete acidic substances. These substances will corrode the bottom of the ship, so it must be cleaned up on time.”
Emilia asked in a puzzled way: “You just said scraping the bottom of the boat. Is this done manually? When will so many parasites be scraped?”
Manager Gao explained with a smile: “When I was a soldier, scraping the bottom of the boat was really done by hand by a group of people. That’s why I was called one of the three major fatigues of the Navy. At that time, the scraping was slow and tiring. Stinky. At that time, people had a smell for several days after scraping. But now you don’t need to be so tired. Now you use a high-pressure-water-gun to spray, which is fast and saves effort.”
Emilia asked: “Then why don’t you spray it now?”
“We are preparing. If you have obsessive-compulsive disorder or intensive phobia, it is a very pleasing thing to see spraying the bottom of a boat with a high-pressure-water-gun.” Gao said.
His words are really not nonsense, this high-pressure-water-gun sprayed the bottom of the boat, and large pieces of parasites fell off the bottom of the boat along with the water column, revealing the original color of the hull, which made people look happy.
Emilia blinked: “Can I try it? It looks so comfortable!”
After hearing this, Manager Gao shook his head: “Miss Emilia, you look simple, but in fact this is also a technical job. This is not a blind spray. It must be sprayed at a certain angle, or else only these parasites can be sprayed. , And it’s troublesome if you can’t wash them away.”
Emilia asked puzzledly: “What’s the problem?”
Xiao Peng smiled and said: “You don’t understand this? Don’t underestimate these parasites, like mussels, oysters, sea urchins, sea cucumbers, abalones, etc., these things will be divided by the staff and taken back to sell. Money is okay, and you can eat it yourself. Look there, isn’t that your favorite gooseneck barnacle? You’re going to be mad, what a shame it’s broken?”
Manager Gao smiled and said: “Miss Emilia, this is an opportunity for our employees to make extra money, so don’t you…”
After listening to Manager Gao’s words, Xiao Peng laughed loudly: “Manager Gao, how long will this ship be maintained?”
Manager Gao said, “Brother Xiao, this ship needs major maintenance, including re-applying anti-corrosion paint. It will take at least 20 working days.”
Xiao Peng frowned slightly: “Can’t it be faster?”
Manager Gao said: “This is already the fastest. As you know, we will always work overtime to serve you. The most important thing is that the anti-corrosion paint on your ship was originally made in Uzbekistan, which contains mercury and tin. , Phenolic and other chemicals; and we will replace you with a new type of anticorrosive paint, mainly copper powder, so that the protection period will be longer, and it can also meet your requirements and be able to withstand low temperatures.
“Heat resistance?” Emilia was a little curious after hearing this.
Xiao Peng said: “Yes, of all the boats in our fishing grounds, only this one has the ability to operate in cold water.”
“What are you doing?” Emilia asked puzzledly.
Xiao Peng grinned: “Go to Antarctica!”
Emilia was taken aback, but her face turned ugly: “Manager Gao, I’m sorry, I think the two of us need to talk.”
Manager Gao was taken aback for a moment: “Uh? Is there anything I did wrong?”
Emilia shook her head: “No, no, no, Manager Gao, you are doing a good job, I have something to talk to Xiao Peng. Honey, I think we can go back first.”
Xiao Peng didn’t understand what Emilia was doing, or was confused and followed Emilia back to the helicopter: “Baby, what’s the problem? Shall we go home now?”
Emilia shook her head, “No, I don’t want to go home. Let’s go to Sidao Town.”
Xiao Peng didn’t understand what he was doing, but still went to Sidao Town with Emilia. They went to the fake plane that Xiao Peng proposed to Emilia at the time, and it is now one of the tourist attractions in Sidao Town.
Xiao Peng and the others also bought tickets to enter, and they were still sitting in the same position they sat when Xiao Peng proposed their marriage. The two ordered two glasses of juice. Look at me and I look at you.
Xiao Peng felt a little uneasy: “Baby, did I do something wrong?”
Emilia shook her head, and did not answer Xiaopeng’s question. Instead he asked, “My dear, why do you say you are going to the South Pole?”
“Oh, this matter!” Xiao Peng let out a sigh of relief. He thought that his affairs in the Star-Stripe Nation caused Emilia to catch a little tail. After hearing him Emilia asked about it, Xiao Peng replied: “When I came back, I heard that you were going to the Antarctic. When I went to Haida, I asked Professor Luan. It turned out to be a cooperation project between Haida and the Institute of Marine Geology. It is also the newly built icebreaker.’ Xuelong 2’s scientific examination debut. Baby, I didn’t expect you to be so good. In this scientific examination activity, a total of 20 outstanding students from Haida University can participate. Most of them are graduate students, only a few college students. Are you one of them?”
Emilia asked back: “What? Do you think it’s weird?”
Xiao Peng hurriedly said: “Of course not, of course my baby is the best! It makes me feel strange that they don’t let you go!”
At this time Xiao Peng must be full of thirst for survival!
Emilia said: “In fact, at first, I felt that there was your relationship in this. I was able to be selected for this list, so I refused this opportunity. Later I learned that this scientific expedition is a national project and has nothing to do with you. Relationship—–Oh, I can’t say that you have nothing to do. The big reason I was selected is because I have a wealth of sailing experience, including polar travel. This gives me a lot of points. So I agree Join the list of this scientific expedition team.”
Xiao Peng applauded: “Of course, my Emilia is the best. As long as the person in charge is not blind, you should be on this list! Our Emilia is the best! “
Emilia snorted coldly: “Then why are you going to the South Pole?”
“Ah?” Xiao Peng was taken aback, and hurriedly said, “Emilia, you don’t know, this scientific research ship is not our ship, how is our ship comfortable and how to come, and the scientific research ship is another matter. That’s how simple and how to come, scientific research equipment is the priority, I don’t want you to suffer there, don’t you want to go to Antarctica? So I simply told them to let you give up this position and let others in. The list of scientific examinations, and then we will sail by ourselves!
As a result, Emilia was taken aback after hearing Xiao Peng’s words: “How can you do this?”
Xiao Peng was taken aback, I’m going, why is Emilia crying?
