Picking up fish is a matter of the future, the current thing to do is to visit, someone came to pick them up, and Malop took these people into the hydropower station.

As he walked, he said: "The hydropower station does not rely on natural water drops to generate electricity, but through seven 180-meter-long, 4-meter-diameter pressure steel pipes that divert water vertically from the lake to the ground, and then pump the water up to supply the generators through seven vertical shaft francis turbines in the plant." ”

As he spoke, Mallop asked his friend to open a door, and he shone it down with a wolf's eye flashlight, and inside was a large machine in motion, and there was a hole in it.

"Be careful, don't fall." There are ranchers joking, pushing and pulling the people around them.

Mallop's friend said solemnly: "Be careful, don't play here, the power of the machine below is 106,000-kilowatts, once it falls, although it will not be fatal with a protective layer, it will definitely cause serious injuries!" ”

"Come on, keep going down, I'll take you to see the generator." Mallop was more amiable, and when he saw that the atmosphere was a little solemn, he changed the way he was sightseeing.

The generators here are rated at 100,000 kVA and 13,000 volts with a rated voltage of 6.4 billion kilowatts per year.

Wang Bo now knows why the price of water and electricity in New Zealand is so cheap, his mother's country has a small population and many resources, no wonder people say that if you choose New Zealand when you are reincarnated, you will choose the difficulty of easy customs clearance.

The most spectacular feature of the power station are the two tailwater tunnels, each 10 kilometers long and 10 meters wide, which can transport a portion of the extracted water directly to the Dipkov estuary and then into the sea.

Construction of the hydropower station began in 1964, and the hydropower engineer in charge of maintenance learned that Wang Bo was Chinese and specially invited him to visit the honor room.

It turned out that this hydropower station still has the shadow of Chinese, when China and New Zealand shortly after diplomatic relations, China assisted engineers to help New Zealand design this power station, of which in 1997 when the second tailwater tunnel was built, China's science and technology color was stronger, and many phases of the project were undertaken by Chinese water conservancy construction companies.

Wang Bo asked Eva to help take a few photos, and then posted them on Weibo and Moments, writing: Chinese technology, Chinese power, Chinese pride.

In fact, there is nothing to visit at the hydropower station, mainly to see something new.

The lake is best suited for fishing, and some residents and tourists have been boating on the lake for brown trout, and Malop said it is a trout fishing paradise for fly anglers with abundant catches.

They had no tackle with them and could not fish, so Mallop led them on their way through the dam to the banks of the Wai'au River to collect fish.

As he walked down from the dam, Wang Bo saw a large fish with a short arm length falling, and then he tried his best to look and saw that the fish had fallen into the water and floated on it, apparently fainting.

Seeing this, he said with regret: "It's a pity that we didn't bring Zhuang Ding over, otherwise we would have harvested a large number of fish." ”

He wanted to bring Zhuang Ding with him, but the queen and Xiao Wang were jealous, because they had brought Zhuang Ding with them when they returned to China before, and they also squeezed up when they got on the plane, and they didn't let them come up and whined grievances.

Later, Eva had no choice but to bring a little big fat cat brother, and Zhuang Ding stayed at home with the queen and Xiao Wang.

The upper reaches of the Wai'au River are turbulent, and they stand by the river to take pictures, but the waves keep crashing out, and before they know it, they are wet.

Mallop led them down and told them that the water by the river was too vapoury and humid, especially since it was raining today, and they would get wet after a while.

Going down the river, there was not even a mountain road, so they had to explore the path carefully, and on the way they came across a flock of red deer and a few fat birds.

Wang Bo had never seen that kind of fat bird, so he curiously stretched out his hand to show the group, and everyone laughed, saying that it was the kiwi, the national bird of New Zealand, and the aborigines saw a big bird since childhood.

The name of the kiwi comes from their call, their English name is 'kiwi', which is also the English name of the aborigines of New Zealand, foreigners come to New Zealand, generally call New Zealanders KIWI.

Wang Bo has long known this, and Kiwi's name is also deafening, but he has never had the opportunity to meet.

New Zealand used to be a paradise for birds, but after the white people landed, a large number of birds were exterminated, and the kiwi is not extinct, but now it is rare.

Walking down the river, fish began to appear on the water, someone stepped on the water and picked up a rainbow trout more than 20 centimeters long, Malop found a green vine through the gills for him to carry, saying that he could roast fish in the wild at noon.

When they came to a flat beach with slow currents, several boats stopped on the shore, and Mallop motioned for them to come up: "Don't you want to pick up fish?" Here's your chance. ”

The boats were the ones they had seen before, and the owners had left, and the boats were left here, tied haphazardly to the trunks of trees by the river, without fear of being stolen.

Most New Zealanders know how to row, this is a coastal country, Wang Bo is better at rowing, from small to large, not to mention just a freshwater river, even at sea is no problem.

He and Eva were in a boat, a wooden sampan four or five meters long, which was easy to handle.

From time to time, you can see fish floating on the river, but not all of them are dizzy, and some just surface to catch their breath because of the dreary weather.

A rancher rowed a boat, raised his eyebrows when he passed by Wang Bo's side, and said, "Wang, come, compare and see who picks up more fish?" ”

Wang Bohaha laughed and said, "I don't want to bully you, Gormon, but if I compare you with Lai, then you are really picking the wrong person." ”

Gormont, a stout rancher, was not convinced and said, "Then try it?" Half an hour is the time limit, and whoever loses will prepare firewood for cooking at noon? ”

Wang Bo made a gentleman's hand salute and said, "As you wish, start!" ”

Their boat happened to come to a big fish with its belly turned white and floating on the water, and Eva hurriedly went to grab it.

These fish are slippery, they decided to catch them on the impurple, and they had to catch them empty-handed without tools such as nets, so it was difficult.

Eva grabbed two handfuls and the fish slipped away, and Gormon and his wife and son laughed and looked like they were on the move.

Patted her forehead in distress, Eva also laughed, she carried the skin on the back of the neck of the second fat, put it on the fish, the second fat claws are very sharp, poked out and grabbed it, so Eva carried it, and easily lifted the fish up.

At this moment, Gormon and the others were dumbfounded. (To be continued.) )
