Chapter 43: Repairing the keel

"What for?" Talia saw us and walked straight over. "This is the confession left by my father, isn't it very clear?"

Chen Zaihai said that only where is it clear? All he saw was a bunch of engineers jumping into the pit, what was this for? Jingwei reclamation? I also said that no one could understand this play, what are these warriors doing when they climb next to this keel? This thing is already rusty, and a group of people can't be stoned to death if they accidentally collapse.

"Think about it, will my father let these engineers go down if he is fine?" Talia continued. "For the sake of this ship, of course."

"I said, Ivan doesn't want these engineers to fix this keel, right?" Chen Zaihai said jokingly.

However, Talia nodded, and her expression looked very serious, how could she understand that she didn't respond to his jokes. I wiped a cold sweat and said no, right? Does Ivan really want to fix this thing? It's not crazy, but even if it is fixed, what can it do? Cause the ship to go out again? This place has been dry for a long time.

Talia told us not to look at us like that, and she didn't give the order. He also acted on his father's orders. She glanced worriedly at the engineer below, and told us that she was also very surprised when she first learned of the order. I just think that my father must be something abnormal.

"You say our mission is to find that hidden underground port, so what's the point of repairing ships here? There is no water in this place, and there is a wasteland around it. No matter how you look at it, it has nothing to do with the huge body of water described in the mission. Talia grumbled. Could it be that the water will come up on its own? ”

I can't generalize even if I speak, Ivan must have his reasons for doing this. It is impossible to sneak a few hundred people to help the Japanese with construction services, and maybe he has some reason why he has to do it.

In fact, when I say so, my heart is still full of question marks. First of all, there is something wrong with such a huge shipyard in such a strange wasteland. Such structures are either on the seashore or on canals with a very large amount of water. I have not heard of enough to make it in the wasteland. There's a very majestic underground river around here, the one we fell into.

But it's still some way from here. Far water can't quench the thirst of the near, and the Japanese won't make it and wear it and then move it to the underground river, right?

I suddenly remembered that Chen Zaihai had speculated that the water level of the underground river before it did not seem to be as low as it is now, and that the shipyard was originally built next to the underground river. I just don't know what happened here, which caused the water level to go down, and the shipyard ran aground. As a result, I took the opportunity to say this idea, wanting to see how the two of them reacted.

This is, of course, also a conjecture, and none of us is capable of proving this idea. Does Ivan think that this level will grow back after that? This place is not a seaside, how can there be such a phenomenon as high tide and low tide? If the water level goes down, it goes down, unless it is replenished with new ones. Looking at the amount of replenishment, it is absolutely impossible to solve the problem of one or two rains on the ground.

And Ivan's explanation is to repair this keel, not to restore this strange exploration ship. After all, there are only a few of us, and we don't have any large work tools, so it is impossible to really repair a keel that is about to break into a ship.

Ivan's purpose here is a bit unguessable, what does he want a complete dragon backbone? Comfortable to look at? He should not have this obsessive-compulsive disorder.

"I don't understand what the hell is going on, there are only a lot of things we can do with our personal integrity." Talia said. "Father has been saying that support will come soon, and there has been no movement for so long, I really don't know where his confidence comes from"

"Lao Su thinks that there is some reason, this shipyard should have been built next to the underground river. Ivan also knew that since he knew that he would let us do this, it meant that the water might rise back, and it was just in the near future. Chen Zaihai agreed.

Talia said that even if the water rises back, can we make a boat before then? The people who do the work are the engineers who build the troops, not the shipbuilders, what can they do.

"So Ivan's order is for them to repair the keel." I said. "He also knows that the engineer can only go so far."

As a result, there was a big circle of discussion, and the question was back to square one. No matter how far-fetched we try to find a reason for this explanation, we will always encounter a dead knot that cannot be solved in the end. Because the keel is the keel, if you cultivate it to the sky, it will not have any effect on us.

Speaking of which, none of us can come up with a plausible explanation, and instead we become a little upset. The engineers below have begun to methodically assume things like gas lamps and scaffolding. It doesn't look like it's going to be going to work in a moment, and there's a huge bend in the middle of the whole keel, and I don't know how they're going to break this thing back. Even if it does come back, the stress structure of this keel will be completely finished.

Talia told us that she didn't know what they would do, and that she was just in charge of delivering orders, and that it was all up to the engineers to judge on the spot.

"So we can only watch here?" Chen Zaihai asked.

Talia nodded and said that was it. But this is not a small project, and the engineer just told himself that we don't need to watch it all the time like an overseer. After that, you can do whatever you have to do.

There was a group of engineers around me, and I saw that the little soldier was among them. A group of them walked here carrying several diesel generators and lifting equipment. I also saw quite a few forklifts, exactly like the one we saw outside the warehouse. It seems that these engineers are not really elm heads, and they know how to use what the Japanese left behind. It's just that I didn't expect that there are so many well-kept forklifts, which shows that the Japanese have put a lot of effort here.

"So we can go back now?" I asked tentatively.

"Go back first, I called you here to tell you about it." Talia waved at us. "I'll be here for a while, and I'll go to your side before dinner."

After that, she ignored us and climbed down the makeshift rope ladder alone. We quickly lost interest after watching the spot for a while, and the whole cistern was made as if it were daylight under the light of the gas lamp. All the engineers are like diligent ants, each performing their own work. I don't know how they used to find a ramp for the forklift to go down, and the equipment and materials were constantly being transported.

Before leaving, I realized that the ramp had been set up by the Japanese for a long time, and it was usually stored in the inner wall of the cistern, and it was only released when it was cleaned or overhauled. This thing is powered by electricity, and the power system here is not very stable, so the engineers replaced it with a diesel generator that they found.

There was nothing we could do to help here, so Chen Zaihai and I just went back to our tents. On the way, I happened to bump into Wang Weiguo, and he asked the same question. I didn't bother to answer, so I asked him to see it himself. He didn't say much, and quickly disappeared behind us.

"What's wrong with this guy?" Chen Zaihai looked back strangely in the direction Wang Weiguo had left.

I said leave this person alone, he was originally a person who was not very easy to get along with, and he was stimulated a lot along the way. It's just that he's become more neurotic than he used to be, and there's nothing to care about now. He said that this was also the case, and he no longer thought about Wang Weiguo's problem.

Before I knew it, it was time for dinner, and Chen Zaihai and I had eaten very much before, so we didn't run out to eat with others. Judging from the noise outside, the engineers had almost all returned, and judging from their habit of working without dying, Talia should have forcibly driven them back

"You're here." The curtain was lifted at once, revealing Talia's beautiful face. "Idle?"

The two of us nodded, and we really didn't know what to do in this time. Chen Zaihai came back and began to fall asleep again, and I really could only look at the kerosene lamp in a daze.

"That's right, you two stay with me." She immediately said happily.

What do we ask you to accompany? Are you going to work as an overseer at that dockyard again? Then Talia shook her head mysteriously, and then pulled something out of her back. The two of us looked at it and were stunned. Isn't this a playing card? She doesn't want to play with us, does she?

"No problem, right? During this time, my nerves are so tense that I am about to break, so you can relax with me. She said cheerfully. I also called the little warrior, and I will come back in a moment. How can a few partners who are born and die have a good relationship, right? ”

Chen Zaihai and I glanced at each other, and we both saw the suspicion in each other's eyes. Talia is a change of sex, so a serious person would actually ask us to play cards? She also seemed to see our suspicions, and said that she really just wanted to relax, and that it would be terrible enough for the task force to have Ivan in mind, and that it would be troublesome if she didn't change her mood.

Now that we've all talked about it, there's no reason for us to refuse. It's boring enough, and it's good that Talia is willing to play, but it's a shame that she can still find this kind of thing
