He Wei stood at the stern of the boat, watching the sunlight shine on the deep blue sea, glittering with golden light, and the coastline of the distant continent became farther and farther away, and it became farther and lighter. The salty smell of sea water greeted him with the sea breeze, and he took a few deep breaths, but he felt very relieved.

"Finally caught the boat!" He Hao thought so in his heart, and the three of them hurried slowly, and finally arrived at the assembly point, where the "Hope" had been waiting for a long time, and after they were picked up by a small boat, the "Hope" immediately set sail to return to Dongluo Island.

"Hope" This is the name that Huang Shi gave him this ship, originally he asked Su Minyou to borrow this sea ship from the maritime merchant Li family, but then "Liu Bei borrowed Jingzhou and borrowed but did not return", so he asked Su Minyou to leave this ship as a surface vehicle and training vessel on Dongluo Island.

This "Hope", the ship itself is not large, it can only have a displacement of 300 to 500 tons, it is a traditional lucky ship,

As a lucky boat, they are generally pointed in the bow, wide in the stern, upturned on both sides, and high in the bow and tail. Then the sides of the ship arch outward, and there are guards on both sides. Because of its high bow and strong shock device, the draft is deep, and it can reach up to 4 meters at most, so it is more suitable as a warship.

Secondly, the hull of this kind of ship is tall, with a wide flat deck, continuous hatches, and a pair of eyes on either side of the bow. As a warship, the whole ship is divided into four layers, the lower layer is equipped with earth and stone ballast, the second floor is inhabited by soldiers, the third floor is the main operation place, and the upper floor is the combat place.

And because of the good maneuverability of this kind of Fu boat, coupled with its unique double rudder design, it can advance and retreat freely in the shallow sea and deep sea, so in the Ming Dynasty, whether it was a warship or a private sea ship, the Fu boat would generally be used.

When Huang Shi first saw it, he could be said to be very disappointed, because he had also seen the restored Fu Ship, majestic and brand new, where was the miserable appearance of the ship at that time.

At that time, the ship was in some old appearance from beginning to end, and the sails were actually made of bamboo strips, and there were patches of large and small cloth boards on them, and those sail ropes were also hand-kneaded with hemp rope, and these sail ropes were also very old, and the hands were a little harder, and the gray brown hair on them stuck to one hand.

There is also the winch used to raise the sails, which is also made of wood, and it is very difficult to raise and lower the sails, and it usually takes five or six strong men to shake the wheels at the same time.

As for hygiene, not to mention, when Huang Shi just stepped on the hatch, a burst of foul smell came to his face, almost fainting him. And the cabin was also full of rats, cockroaches, and bed bugs, and Yellowstone couldn't imagine how the crew of the ship lived.

After Huangshi attacked Jiangjiazhuang, he "detained" the ship, and then asked Su Minyou to negotiate with the Li family and resell such a lucky ship to him. Lao Su was still a little embarrassed at that time, after all, the front just said to borrow, but the back did not pay back, although Huangshi said to compensate, but how much compensation is a problem.

After all, the cost of its brand new is only 2000 taels, but after a few years, it is definitely not worth the price, but the problem is that sometimes there is no money to buy, so you can only find a boatman to build it yourself, which also involves some wood, boatmen and so on, so things are not so simple.

"Chief, besides, we don't have so much silver in our hands!" At that time, Su Minyou said with a bitter face, after all, although Huangshi took out a few treasures that day, the "auction" he asked for had not yet been held, and they came to Dongluo Island.

"Then when you go back, you'll give the dressing mirror first." Huang Shi thought for a while and gave the answer, but in a blink of an eye, he stopped Su Minyou again, and said to him again, "By the way, in fact, those mirrors, you estimate the price, and directly wholesale them to the Li family, and let them help buy a few more, how about it?" ”

Su Min was stunned for a moment, if he didn't conduct an auction, he would not be able to estimate the price of such a large "combing mirror". After all, the original "glass mirror" on Taixi's side was only the size of a fist, and it had already been sold for 500 taels, and the "combing mirror" brought by the chief from the upper realm was five or six times its size, how can I estimate this price.

Huang Shi saw that Su Min was very embarrassed, so he waved his hand and said, "It's better for you to make up your own mind." ”

After Su Min returned to Fucheng, Huang Shi had no doubt at all that he couldn't buy the ship, after all, he paid for the "combing mirror" that can be said to be a priceless treasure, and if the Li family had a little brains, they would definitely not refuse.

Therefore, after the ship returned from Langqi, the first thing Huang Shi did was to ask his men to tow the ship ashore.

When Ma Qianyu and Du Yande dragged the boat ashore out of breath, they heard the chief shouting over there, "No wonder! ”

Du Yande hurriedly ran over and asked, "Chief, what's wrong?" ”

Yellowstone pointed to the hull of the ship that was already resting on the beach and said, "What do you think these are?" ”

Du Yande looked at it, he didn't know a lot, but Ma Qianzhi originally lived by the sea, he walked over to Huangshi and replied, "Chief, these barnacles, oysters, and sea rainbows." ”

Of course, Huangshi knows oysters and sea rainbows, a sea oyster with eggs, and a winter melon and sea rainbow soup, both of which are Fujian delicacies. But barnacles, he really saw the real thing for the first time, and he had only seen their information on Baidu.

These barnacles are small clusters of grayish-white, calcareous shells attached to rocks by the sea. It is shaped a bit like a horse's teeth, so people who live by the sea often call it "horse teeth".

Barnacles can not only attach to the reef, but also to the hull of the ship, and cannot be washed away by the wind and waves. After each barking, barnacles secrete a sticky barnacle primary gum, which contains a variety of biochemical components and strong adhesion, thus ensuring its strong adsorption capacity.

Their adhesion is a great problem and burden for ships sailing in seawater and factories pumping seawater for cooling, and the world has to spend a huge amount of manpower and money on removing barnacles every year, and various technologies and coatings to prevent barnacle epiphysis are also being developed.

Huang Shi walked to the side of the boat, picked at these attachments with his fingers, and found that it was really not ordinarily hard, and it could be eradicated without tools, "Qianzhi, Yande, look at these attachments, no wonder this sea ship runs as slow as a turtle." ”

Then he walked around the boat again, and found that the ship was not dilapidated, but because no one took care of it at ordinary times, and the people of the Li family did not pay attention to the hygiene on the ship, it can be said that the ship was full of garbage, so it looked dirty.

After Huang Shi turned around, he boarded the hull again, looked at the deck covered with dirt, frowned and ordered Ma Qianzhi, "Qianzhi, you took someone to clean up the garbage on the ship for me." ”

"Yes." After Ma Qian received the order, he took his men to the camp to get cleaning tools.

Then Huang Shi said to Du Yande, "Yande, your job is to eradicate these barnacles, oysters, and rainbows at the bottom of this boat. ”

However, when Du Yande took the order to go, he was summoned back again, "Yande, you have to get some carpentry tools from Mingxin, if you don't use them, it is estimated that these attachments will not be able to be removed." ”

"Yes, Chief." Du Yande waved his hand again and saluted.

In less than a day, the ship was cleaned and renewed.

"Here, everybody bring these masks." When Du Yande and Ma Qianzhi were busy with these things, Huangshi was not idle, after he disappeared for a while, when he came back, he had more of these things in his hands.

Du Yande and the others put on these thick white masks, not knowing what the head of the Dao Dao was going to do.

Huang Shi then took out several large blue jars, which were also connected with a black leather pipe and a silver-white metal pipe.

This is the Gongnong-16 knapsack sprayer, its structure is very simple, the liquid pulse pressurized pump is used to pressurize the liquid medicine, the size is small, the sealing performance is good, the liquid displacement is large, the use of inverted air chamber for pulse liquid pressure stabilization, to maintain the continuous spraying operation of the nozzle.

Moreover, the liquid medicine tank is not sealed and not pressurized, and it is convenient to use the lever to shake it by hand, and the working pressure of the liquid medicine is as high as 4. 0－7。 8 kg/cm², spraying while pressurizing is suitable for young and middle-aged fruit trees. The droplets are 50-250 microns in diameter and 1:50-150 times in concentration.

However, this kind of thing is generally used to spray pesticides, but Huang Shi has also seen it on TV, and the doctors at those epidemic prevention stations use it to disinfect, so after he returned to modern times, he immediately went to Changle's agricultural material store to buy a few of them.

"Carry them like this, like me." Yellowstone picked up a knapsack sprayer and carried it on his back.

Du Yande and the others also wanted to follow the leader's example and carry them on their backs, but when they picked up the jar, they realized that the jar was still very heavy, and it was filled with some green liquid, even through a thick mask, they still felt that the liquid emitted a dizzy smell.

Because he was wearing a mask, Huang Shi's voice was a little low, "Wait, you guys are like this, disinfecting this ship." ”

After saying that, Huang Shi demonstrated, he first aimed the nozzle at the place to be disinfected, and then shook the carrying rod, and in an instant saw the disinfection droplets spraying out of the nozzle, and the deck in front of him was wet, and at the same time emitted a pungent smell.

Du Yande and they also did the same, according to Huangshi's movements, tried the feeling, it was very simple, and then listened to the chief's explanation, "Everyone, you must disinfect every inch of the ship for me, and you can't let go of a dead end!" ”
