Chapter 760: The Oldest Means of Water Transportation
In front of the resort, Bi Fang turned the axe in his hand and chopped it down from top to bottom. The iron axe easily splits the roots of the tree, twisting left and right to create a gap.
Tourists can't help but stop and whisper.
The tourists didn't understand what was happening, and a young Asian suddenly ran to the door and cut down a palm tree, and cut down one one, and was doing something to the second one, but because of the axe in the other party's hand, he didn't dare to come forward to dissuade him, but just watched silently from a distance.
"Hey, how can you cut down the trees here! This is the property that belongs to the resort!"
Bi Fang straightened up, hung down his axe, looked back, and found a sandmobile really rushing towards him, and an old man with a white beard on it waved his hands with his teeth and claws, which really made people worry about whether he would lose control and crash into the wall.
"Be careful." Bi Fang kindly reminded him, but he didn't wait for him to stop it. Boom!
The crowd of onlookers exclaimed.
The sandbike was so strong that it was stopped by the wall, but fortunately, the speed of the sandbike was limited, and it was not too fast, and both were very strong, and the white-bearded old man shook it, and it was no big deal, and he jumped straight out of the car, showing a skill that did not match his appearance and age.
"Stop, stop, boy, do you know how many years they've grown? These two trees are older than both of your dads and they are the property of the resort! I'm going to call the police and get the police to arrest you!"
Looking at one of the palm trees that had fallen to the ground, the white-bearded old man was extremely sad, and looked at Bi Fang like an enemy.
"As you can see, they're really old, but the manager of the resort has already given them to me." Bi Fang took two steps and sat down on the palm tree that had fallen to the ground, with the axe pointed to the ground, and his hands were on the handle of the axe.
It was still a bit difficult for a person to cut down a big tree of more than fifteen meters with an axe, and it took half an hour to cut the first tree, and no one around came out to stop it.
Of course, even on Easter Island, there are people who recognize Bi Fang, after all, tourists here come from all over the world, and when he cuts trees here, as well as drones in the sky, he immediately realizes that this is a live broadcast.
asked for an autograph, or took a photo and left, only a small number stayed in place to watch the excitement, and it was naturally impossible to stand up and stop it.
As for those who don't know, it's even more impossible.
"You fart!" The white-bearded old man obviously didn't believe it, and took out his mobile phone to contact the town police.
There is a small town on Easter Island called Angaroa, which is small but has a lot of information and officials to maintain law and order.
"Haarsley, Haarsley, what are you doing! Come over here!" A man in a suit hurried over and stopped the white-bearded old man.
"Phils, Fils, you didn't see, ahhh......h
In an instant, Hosley understood everything. Feelings, that kid is telling the truth!
Watching the white-bearded old man leave like a mourner, Bi Fang couldn't help but feel a little funny.
Before cutting it, Bi Fang had already communicated with the manager of the resort, and he did it with the consent of the official and the owner of the palm tree.
Of course, there was no cost to the resort to hand over the trees, and their request was that if Bi Fang did succeed in crossing Nemo Point, and the canoe made from the two palm trees had not sunk, then they would recover the boat and make it one of the resort's specialties from now on.
History is made by people.
Even the manager's immediate boss, the owner of the resort, had never heard of Bi Fang's existence before, but he knew that it was an unprecedented feat for him to build a ship and use primitive tools to cross Nemo Point.
Just like the Amundsen, it's a memento that deserves to be kept in a museum.
Bi Fang has nothing to do with this, and he doesn't need to send it over when the time comes, just tell the resort the address, and they will send someone to get it themselves.
After a break, Bi Fang continued his work.
After the farce just now, the onlookers also realized that the logging was allowed by the resort, and it was not any thug behavior, and they were a little bolder.
After inquiry, I slowly understood the whole incident, and I couldn't help but feel excited.
The best time to visit Easter Island is from November to March, and now it's April, although it's a little late, but I didn't expect to experience such a fun adventure firsthand.
It's much better than the feather skirt on the island!
"There is a certain danger in cutting down trees, of course, if you master certain skills and are not negligent, there will be no serious consequences."
"The first thing you need to know before cutting down a tree is your tool, is it a knife or a saw? The different methods of the tools are still a little different, the small tree has nothing to pay attention to, the big tree should be careful, if the treatment is not careful, it may collapse and crush people, this situation is very dangerous."
"Take my current axe as an example, before chopping, you need to determine which direction the tree is going to fall, such as the direction of falling, there is a tree next to it, then there may be a situation of hanging on the tree, this situation is more complicated, you may need to deal with it twice."
"Or it's not good to hit anything else, when you are optimistic about the direction of the fall, you can get the axe, the position is about 10 to 20 centimeters from the ground, and the position of the axe should be aligned with the direction of the fall, that is, the gap you cut out should be consistent with the direction of the fall."
"Cutting is also particular, the first knife peak is oblique downward, the second knife peak is oblique upward, both knives must be at the same point, repeatedly alternate, so that the cut will cause a gap in the tree, the axe will not be stuck in the narrow gap, the efficiency will be higher, the shape of the gap is V-shaped, when the cut is about 2/3 stop, you have to change to the opposite direction."
Bi Fang changed directions and continued.
"Switch to the opposite direction to ensure your safety, the tree will not hit you if it falls, and the direction of the fall is usually the way you think."
"Oh, by the way, in addition to axes and machetes, there are also saws."
"The saw is different from the knife, the blade of the saw is thin, so the gap is a small seam, and the skills here are different, first of all, the same optimistic direction, the notch of the saw is also to the side of the pour, at this time the saw is very important, if the saw is less, the direction of the fall will be wrong! If you have too much, your saw will easily be scrapped."
"Because the notch of the saw is small, you will tilt as soon as you saw more trees, clamp the saw, the saw will be stuck, it is impossible to pull it out, and forcibly pulling it out may cause the blade to break, and the saw blade will fly out at that time, which is more dangerous."
"So the depth of the saw is usually less than 3 minutes and 2 minutes, here you need to rely on experience, feel that the saw is tight, it is not easy to pull, or there is a feeling of stuck, so pull it out and change the direction......"
Bi Fang patiently explained, and when the two trees all fell, the next major event began. Canoe. One of the oldest water vehicles of mankind.
