"Okay, it's all right, everyone put down their things, listen to Huzi's command, and help them get the hook machine out!"

The man who called Yang Yi the third brother agreed, and then arranged for everyone to put things aside, ready to listen to Yang Yi's arrangement.

"Qingxue, let the workers retreat to the shore first, and I'll go over and see what's going on!"

"Okay, Mr. Lin, let's arrange for everyone to come back. ”

Zhang Qingxue agreed, and arranged for Mr. Lin to organize the workers, and she followed Yang Yi to the collapsed dock.

Yang Yi didn't say anything when he saw this, but just told her to pay attention to safety and follow herself, and soon the two of them arrived at the position where they collapsed.

This wharf is also more than ten years old, and it was built by the people in the village when Yang Yi was a child, and I still remember that he would follow behind at that time, watching those adults deal with the big trees that were dragged down from the mountain, and the big saws more than two meters long could sawn the tree body at the waist of the person.

The pier is all wooden, with a layer of at least 20 centimeters thick wooden planks on top, and a combination of leg-thick wooden beams and waist-thick columns underneath are used to reinforce.

This kind of craftsmanship has now been lost in the mountain village, the last generation is the "chief engineer" of this wharf, the village surnamed Li a grandfather of the old man presided over the construction, is the ninth uncle Li Desheng the fourth brother of the old man, it is said to be a family handicraft, the ancestors once did the Ming Dynasty craftsman supervision, once participated in the construction of the Nanjing Palace.

As for the truth of this matter, it has been impossible to verify it after hundreds of years, but for several lifetimes in this village, most of the "engineering" projects have been in charge of their family, including Wu Afu, the contractor, who also learned a little skill from him before starting to do this in the village.

"It turned out to be a riveting and tenon process, it is too rare in this era, it is said that there are only a few companies in the country that have this craft, and the wood used should also be dried in the shade and then soaked in tung oil, the waterproof and fireproof performance is very good, I won't destroy a cultural relic, right?" Zhang Qingxue also squatted down and looked at it, then got up and asked Yang Yi with a wry smile.

"Hmm, I didn't expect you to know so much about construction engineering?" Yang Yi was stunned for a moment and asked with a smile.

"Of course, I majored in ancient architecture on Hong Kong Island, and I still have a doctorate, so naturally I want to understand these traditional crafts, and you haven't said whether this is a cultural relic?"

"The cultural relics are not enough, it has only been built for more than ten years, this wharf is a Li family grandfather in the village presided over the repair, but after his death, this craft was lost. It's time for this bridge, even if it doesn't have you machines, it won't take a few years, do you see those little bugs inside?"

"Is that all? It looks disgusting, what are they?"

"Boat maggots!"

Yang Yi stared at the white insects that were still wriggling in the column and said, these insects are big and small, the small ones are three or five centimeters, and the big ones look like they are two or three centimeters, and most of their bodies are still burrowing in the wood, and they keep squirming at the location of the fracture, which looks disgusting.

"Boat maggots, are they also larvae of flies, and how big should this fly be?" asked Zhang Qingxue, pointing to the wriggling insects.

"They are not the larvae of flies, they are shellfish, and they are also called shipwn shells, which can not only cut through wooden buildings, wooden boats, bamboo rafts, bamboo frames, etc., but also through the trunks and roots of mangrove trees on the seashore, and some can even chisel through stones. After burrowing into the wood as a larvae, they live in it for the rest of their lives, and some large ones can grow up to a meter long in it, and they live by eating wood. They are best known for their reproductive ability, they can lay five million eggs a year, and they have no concept of family planning at all, but they taste very good, and I will let people catch some and try them at night. ”

Yang Yi gave a brief introduction, but when he heard him say that the ship maggots could be eaten, Zhang Qingxue looked at the wriggling soft worms, turned her head and ran to the side and retched.

"No, this chiseled shellfish is very delicious, especially fried and crispy, at least a pound can be sold for 50 yuan in Siam, let's go, go over and talk to everyone, find a way to get this big guy out!"

Yang Yi originally wanted to try to change her opinion, but who knew that when she heard the frying, Zhang Qingxue vomited even harder, and he could only take her back to the shore with a wry smile.

"Huzi, what's going on with the dock? It's been used for more than ten years, so it shouldn't be so easy to break. The third brother saw Yang Yi and the others coming back, and asked around.

"It's all the maggots on the ship that cause trouble, and the wood on the dock is hollowed out, so it will be crushed directly, let's find a way to help get the excavator out first." Qingxue, I see that the crane has gone ashore, if it doesn't work, use the crane, including the unloading at the back. Yang Yi explained to everyone, and then turned his head to Zhang Qingxue and said.

"Yes, I think so too, but the crane is a little far away from there, I'm afraid I can't reach it!"

"Look at the reef by the pier, although it is not particularly flat, but it is no problem to put a crane, drive directly to the reef, just lift the car out, and then lean the stern in front of the stone, and then lift the others out, you don't need the pier first!"

Yang Yi pointed to a reef next to the wharf, which is at least half the size of a basketball court and said, this reef is connected to the coast, and it happens to be next to the wharf deep into the bay, which is still a suitable place to park a crane.

"Mr. Lin, what do you think?" asked Mr. Lin and the person in charge of the engineering team.

"I think it's possible! This place is indeed quite suitable, you can go up with two cranes and work together!" Mr. Lin discussed with a few people next to him.

"Third brother, let's go over and help together, don't let the dock collapse for another while, otherwise we won't even be able to get out in the next few days!"

Yang Yi smiled and said to the third brother, and a few people walked along the dock to the bay, helping some workers clean up the broken wood on the dock.

"Huzi, let's catch some boat maggots later, shall we? This thing is good for drinking!"

The third brother took out a piece of severed wood, and when he saw that it was full of fat and big ship maggots, he couldn't help but smile and said.

"Okay, let's have a chat tonight, and we'll go to Pearl Lake, where I've built a few huts, barbecue, and cooking!. ”

"Okay!"

Seeing these playmates who have been playing since childhood, Yang Yi is rarely very relaxed, and several people are chatting and amusing each other while working. Then, after the crane was in place, he helped hang the cable and directed the excavator that had been trapped in the dock to be lifted out.

When the excavator on the dock was hoisted out, Yang Yi and the others began to dig up the ship maggots from the broken wood, and smashed the wood inside, and inside were a pair of symmetrical white calcareous hard shells with tube-shaped bodies and heads, which only took up a few tenths of the body, and squirmed softly inside.

Maybe the life here is too good, or it may be because of the spiritual water entering the bay, the boat maggots here are fat and big except for the larvae, and the third brother holds a strip of more than one meter in his hand, and the old people who see it are amazed again and again.

The equipment on the ship will not be unloaded for a while, Zhang Qingxue also discussed with the old village chief, and planned to build a large wharf for the village for free first, so as to compensate for the loss of the damaged wharf, Yang Yi didn't care about these things, a group of people took the dug boat maggots to Yang Yi, and then planned to go home to settle his wife and children, or meet with his parents, and go to Yang Yi's cabin to find him.

Back at the cabin, Yang Yi soaked these things in clean water, let them spit out all the dirty things, and took out some fish and shrimp from the Dragon Ball space, including freshwater anchovies, golden eels, hairy crabs, small yellow croaker, mouse groupers and lobsters, and went to Uncle Jiu's small vegetable garden to get some eggplants, beans, tomatoes and other seasonal vegetables, and then packed them up and waited for a group of people to come over.

Now Wu Yonghui is busy with the affairs of the big canteen, and no one has come to be a cook for him, so he can only do it himself and have enough food and clothing.

Li Jiu and Uncle Jiu came back from the lake and helped him get it together. With the help of Yang Yi and them, after finding the bones of his wife, Uncle Li Desheng helped Li Jiu look at Pearl Lake together, and it was considered a part-time job for Yang Yi, in his words, he had lived by this lake for half his life, and he couldn't leave it at all, and he didn't need to be paid, just help a little, and when he was old, he could just bury him with his wife.
