Chapter 62: Calculating Directions
Since last night, Xusheng has been suffering from insomnia because of his new house.
Now that the new house is built, is there a gift not to move in?
Chen Zheng has put a lot of thought into the design of this house, with two bedrooms, one living room, one kitchen and one bathroom, and a standard small apartment design.
The master bedroom faces the sun, and the window opens to the sea, with a wide view and plenty of sunshine.
The second bedroom is in the back, the wind blows the tree hole, quiet and quiet.
Next to the kitchen is well-ventilated, ensuring that no fumes drift into the living room.
There is also a small door at the back of the house, and when you go out, there is the so-called "bathroom".
However, this bathroom is a bit rudimentary, with no flushing system, only a clean bucket.
It is convenient to get up at night to urinate at night, and if it is a large one, it is better to hide in the woods.
Xusheng moved the two small beds in the original house and made the covers, and the master bedroom of Chaoyang was naturally owned by Shanshan.
Chen Zheng then used the remaining wood to make a coffee table and a few square stools.
Due to the limited tools, the coffee table and square stool did not take any shape, and were mainly practical.
Therefore, Chen Zheng didn't even look at the attributes of these furniture, he knew it in his heart.
But even so, Xusheng and Shanshan were eye-opening.
Chen Zheng looked at the two of them and couldn't help but feel a little proud in his heart, and said in his heart, not to mention the children of the two islands, even if they are well-informed people in the city, they have never seen such a house design.
This hut is unique in the world.
"Ouch, Xusheng, have you built a new house?"
"This wooden house is so beautiful!"
The men of the island had gone out to fish, and the women were wandering around when they saw the new house.
Shanshan was extremely proud and said, "This is what Brother Chen has covered for us!" ”
"Brother Chen? Isn't this the same guy who was rescued from the sea that day? ”
"At that time, I saw that he was very handsome, which raised his spirit and looked better!"
"I knew I had taken him to me to recuperate."
"Your man didn't come back when he went to sea in the spring, is it appropriate for you to take him home?"
"What's out of place? Isn't that right? ”
Seeing that everyone was looking at him wrongly, the woman quickly explained, "I mean, just let him do some work for me." ”
This explanation, everyone obviously didn't believe it, if she really took her home, it would not be just a matter of doing some work.
"Ladies and sisters, this new house has just been built and needs to be cleaned up, so I won't take care of you." Shanshan politely sent the onlookers away.
Although she is young, she can also hear from their words that they all want this Brother Chen to be a guest at home.
How can this work? Brother Chen was rescued by their brother and sister, and no one else wants to get rid of it!
That night, the three of them moved into a new house, and although Chen Zheng was still huddled with Xusheng, it was obviously much more comfortable than last night.
After so many days, I finally got a good night's sleep.
The next day, Xu Sheng and Shanshan went out to fish as usual, and Chen Zheng was about to prepare for the shipbuilding.
The ship that Chen Zheng was about to build was the dhow of the Fuso dwarf Kato.
Chen Zheng used 2,200 carpentry experience to redeem it.
This dhow is simple in structure and decent in size, so it is perfect for crossing the sea and returning home.
This is the first time Chen Zheng has done this kind of large-scale carpentry, and he can't help but feel a little nervous.
However, the superb skills make up for the lack of experience.
It took almost a day for Chen Zheng to prepare all the wood.
The next day, Chen Zheng began to assemble the wood, and before that, he still used the method of roasting the wood to carbonize, otherwise, the ship would soon be soaked in the sea.
Chen Zheng first divided a thick and straight tree into two with the profile facing upwards and used it as a keel.
The keel is a longitudinally thick plate of a wooden boat clamped in the bottom plate. It bears the total longitudinal bending and water pressure, which plays a significant role in improving the longitudinal strength of the ship.
Then, on the profile of the keel, the bottom plate is installed, and it is compacted and pressed.
In the process of compression, Chen Zheng completed the outward arc of the board, connected it with the plate, and connected the front and rear pond wave boards at both ends; The upper part of the bottom plate is closely connected with the lower edge of the transverse skeleton, which is an important component to ensure the watertightness of the hull and bear the weight of the hull.
For such a big project, Rao is Chen Zheng has a super carpenter system, and it took nearly three days of hard work to build this dhow.
"Congratulations to the host for crafting a dhow in excellent condition, with +999 carpentry experience!"
Sloops in excellent condition: +17 speed, +18 sturdy, +16 upstream, +16 rampage.
Chen Zheng stared at the dhow for a long time, and he didn't understand what this rampage attribute meant.
Is this an active ability, or a passive ability?
When Xusheng Dayu came back, Chen Zheng put sleepers under the wooden boat, designed a set of pulley mechanisms, and the two of them dragged the wooden boat into the water.
I can't go to sea tonight, I can see what the weather is like tomorrow, and if the weather is good, Chen Zheng decided to return to Dongyang County immediately.
Chen Zheng is thinking about his mother-in-law.
Xu Sheng and Shanshan also knew that when the ship was built, that is, when Chen Zheng was sent away, they were also ready at all times.
This night, it was Chen Zheng's turn to lose sleep, and the mood of returning to his heart was like an arrow, and people who had not been far away could not understand it.
After staying up until the next day, Chen Zheng couldn't wait to get on the boat.
However, at this moment, Shanshan suddenly asked, "Brother Chen, where is the county seat of Dongyang, let's sail there?" ”
A casual question made Chen Zheng stand next to the wooden boat and did not move for a long time.
Shanshan glanced at Xusheng and asked in a low voice, "Brother, did I say the wrong thing?" ”
Xu Sheng sighed and said, "Fortunately, I said it earlier, otherwise it would be troublesome if I really had to go to sea." ”
"Then Brother Chen can't go back?" Shanshan asked, her tone still looking a little hopeful.
Xu Sheng stared at Chen Zheng for a while, and said, "Maybe we can only wait for someone to pick him up." ”
"Actually, it doesn't matter if Dongyang County goes or not." Shanshan said, as if talking to herself.
Chen Zheng was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, startling Xusheng and Shanshan.
"Brother Chen can't be stupid, right?" Shanshan said worriedly.
Chen Zheng walked over and said with a smile: "What are you talking about, I was just thinking about how to calculate the location of Dongyang County just now." ”
"Count?" Shanshan's face was full of doubts, "Brother Chen, do you still know fortune telling?" ”
Women are like this, no matter how old or young, they are always interested in fortune telling, gossip, horoscopes, such ethereal things.
Chen Zheng smiled and said, "I'm not a fortune teller, I use the shadow to calculate the latitude of this place, and then calculate the location of Dongyang County." ”
"What is science?" Sansa asked again.
