Section 46 Tree Removal in the River (I)
There is a lot of water in the south of the Yangtze River, especially in Shaoxing.
The whole city of Shaoxing is gently surrounded and entangled by the winding rivers. The water brings aura to the city, and the city also returns water to life, and the city and water are dependent on each other, unable to separate each other.
Among the many rivers in Shaoxing, the Fengze River in Shanyin is definitely a very important one, it is a section of the Shaoxing moat, and a part of the Zhedong Canal, and the river is relatively open. On the canal, the boats shuttle in the four seasons, there is a wind and sails, and if there is no wind, they are fine, or come and go, and they are reluctant to give up day and night, and the 'wind is the river' is also named.
Today's river is much more lively than usual. The officials and wealthy businessmen of the two counties brought their families and took them to stop near the entrance of the abduction on a double-decker boat and a yacht, drinking and having fun while waiting for the beginning of the show. The common people also called for friends and pooled money to hire a fishing boat and a small boat to come and watch the excitement. There are also some awning boats carrying fresh fruits and Huadiao rice wine shuttling through it, shouting and selling, and after a while, they will be on top of the usual day's income.
This kind of scene usually only appears in the Dragon Boat Festival Chongyang, and the reason why today is like a festival is because of the second competition between the two counties, which will be seen today...... The big action of removing trees in the river is much more enjoyable than the little effort of gilding in the bottle, so it is no wonder that the Shaoxing fathers are so enthusiastic.
Even some young ladies couldn't help but hold their father and mother, followed out, and hid in the cabin with a gauze curtain to watch quietly...... Well, this world is so lively. Most of the ladies had never seen the world, their beautiful eyes flickered, and they looked so ignorant and curious.
Miss Yin and the picture screen also came over on a yacht. In fact, her surname is Xijing and she doesn't like to move, and she is busy with affairs, if it weren't for the painting screen to come back and say, Shen Mo couldn't even look at the method she had worked so hard to come up with, which made her almost crazy! She won't take the time to come and join in the fun.
At this time, there was a sudden twitch on the river, and he heard the painting screen excitedly say: "It's coming, it's coming!" Miss Yin followed the prestige, and saw a fast boat coming from the upstream in the wind, and there was a blue-shirted young man standing at the bow of the boat, which should be that stinky boy! Can you really show off......
Miss Yin couldn't help but squint her eyes slightly, wanting to see what this bastard boy looked like, and he could fascinate the picture screen...... But the boat was moving very fast, and in a blink of an eye, it had already passed by, and before he could see his face, he could only look at the back of the wind.
'Arrogant boy! Miss Yin gritted her silver teeth and said angrily in her heart. Picture Screen sensed her abnormality, and said in her heart, "You have offended Miss miserably now." ’
Shen Jing was wearing a blue shirt, reading the bow of the boat against the wind, and was in the most stylish pose, enjoying the cheers around him. Suddenly, he sneezed two loud sneezes in a row, and he was suddenly embarrassed, causing the people around him to laugh.
His face turned red and he scolded in a low voice: "Who is scolding me behind my back? ”
Shen Mo, who was sitting in the cabin behind him, laughed and said, "The river wind is so strong, it's strange if you don't catch a cold." ”
"Don't I just want to enjoy the cheers of the crowd?" Shen Jing blew his nose vigorously, and said with a sad face: "This is good, it's a shame...... Is this fate? ”
"Young master, son, we're here." At this time, the captain of the boat said loudly.
Shen Mo nodded, slowly stood up with the hatch, and walked to the deck to stand side by side with Shen Jing.
As soon as he saw the fluttering white clothes, a burst of cheers suddenly broke out on the shore of the river, mixed with the screams of some big girls and little daughters-in-law: "Silence is coming......
"It turns out that that's the silent ......" Looking at the slightly thin white back, Miss Yin said softly: "It's just half a child." ”
"Miss......" Picture Ping pouted, "You are biased......"
Miss Yin teased her and said, "Don't you want to talk about it?" Regarding the fact that the painting screen of the sister is determined to leave, although she raised her hands to support, it is impossible for her heart to be reluctant and sad, and it is not difficult to understand that she has some hostility towards silence.
The painting screen was about to be disobeyed, when he heard a rough voice outside: "Shen Gongzi, my Wang Mou is a man of his word, and I have already brought Yao's eldest son to you, I don't know if you brought the idea I wanted?" ”
Then a clear voice replied, "Let's try it below." Even if she was a little prejudiced, Miss Yin had to admit that this kid's movements were really good.
Then he saw that the silence commanded the captain of the boat, "Please bring the boat up." ”
"Okay!" It was rare to show it in front of so many people, and the boat boss shook his spirit and said, "Childe, look at it!" With that, he pushed the boat hard, and the clipper slowly landed on the tree and stopped three inches away.
"Hold the boat in place." He smiled silently. The captain of the boat used a rope to tie the side of the boat to the two thick branches.
"I'm going to trouble a few masters next." Shen Mo said to the seven or eight carpenters who came out of the cabin, "Do what we discussed yesterday." ”
The carpenters smiled and said, "Don't worry, Childe." Then they began to get busy in an orderly manner, and they first used a saw and axe to remove the branches of the lower part of the old tree, making it a bare section. Then, three feet above the water, the trunk is sawed out with a crooked saw. Once the notch was made, the boat boss untied the rope and rowed the boat to the opposite side of the trunk to resecure it.
The carpenters did not rush to see the tree, but first cut small holes in the trunk of the tree at a foot above the water. Then insert some wooden poles that are sharpened at both ends, and then sit on the prepared planks. The four corners of the planks were well carved into small holes, and the outer side could be inserted at the other end of the pole without being able to pass through.
Half a circle was chiseled around the trunk of the tree, and the inside was connected with ropes, and a delicate and firm scaffold was erected.
After checking the firmness of the scaffolding, the carpenters stepped on it with confidence and sawed down on the opposite side of the trunk with a long saw. In order to avoid accidents, Shen Mo jumped on the scaffolding, rowed the boat far away, and instructed Shen Jing, who remained on the boat, to prevent the curious ship from approaching, so as not to cause accidental injury.
It took a full two quarters of an hour for the big saw to finally reach the point where it was close to the breach. At this time, the tree began to rattle, and after a while, the thick trunk finally slowly fell downward. With the sound of the branches clattering, the speed of the tree trunk falling became faster and wider, only to hear a loud bang, the big tree fell into the water, and the water column was more than two high, drenching everyone on the scaffolding into chickens.
