Chapter 22: Combo!

There are also lumbar rotators, health cycling machines, space walkers, Tai Chi push tables, shoulder joint rehabilitation devices, etc.

Su Ming hit the horizontal bar and did dozens of pull-ups without difficulty.

Suna is playing a spacewalk

Nightlife can't go out for drinks every day. It's good to go out for a walk once in a while.

After spending some time in the fitness area, I went out for a walk. When I came back, Su Ming went to check the lunch box.

There was no fish in the lunch box.

Su Ming smiled, picked up the lunch box and threw it into the trash. Su Ming bought some disposable lunch boxes at the supermarket before.

The next day.

Su Ming and them took Zhou Lan's car to the navigation school.

There are exercises on board today

Today, we will cover the rescue of drowning people, first aid, anchoring operations and the use of boat ropes.

In the afternoon, I returned to the fishing port after four o'clock and fished in the same spot yesterday.

Today's tide is a little late. I caught a fish and sold it when it was dark, and each got more than 200 of them.

After that, the tide came later. After each day's classes, Su Ming and his wife would still take a boat out to catch the dark.

Fishing is not easy without the protection of the tide.

For the fish caught a few days ago, Su Ming and his family couldn't eat enough food to feed the stray cats in the community. As time passed, the tide gradually got late, and Su Ming and Suna didn't catch enough fish to eat for themselves, so they had to feed the cats.

It's August.

Yacht routes have entered into practical operations, such as mooring and disembarking at marinas and pontoons.

It's a yacht, but it's actually a small boat to train them.

After the last few courses, Xu Yan finally came to the sailing practice course that he had been thinking about.

Sailing is difficult for many people. In fact, sailing is much simpler than you might think

There are two teaching sailboats, one is a 9-metre long double sail controlled by a pull rope. Such a sailboat should be operated by two people. Of course, one person can operate it.

There is also a 9.9-metre leisure sailboat with two sails and two steering wheels.

A laid-back sailboat is the easiest to control because it has a steering wheel that is very convenient to operate.

After more than a month of studying, the exam is finally coming.

If you pass the exam, you can get your notebook.

At the end of the last lesson, the school teachers organized a party. After dinner, Xu Yan returned to the car and said, "I want to buy a sailboat, do you want to invest?" ”

"How old?"

"There are only a few hundred thousand small sailing boats at sea," Xu said.

"Why are you buying this?" "If you want to buy a house, you can't afford a sailboat. ”

It's easy to buy a boat, but it's hard to keep it.

Even with more than 100,000 sailing ships, the cost of use is not cheap.

"It's been a month since I came back from the high seas. For a long time, I have been paying attention to the state of the high seas......" Xu Yan said, "There are not many fish in the high seas. Buy a small sailboat and come back and rebuild, install a freezer and you're good to go. ”

Su Ming is also paying attention to the sea conditions on the high seas. It's been more than a month. In addition to the previous typhoon, there were only five days suitable for going to sea. Basically, it is required to go out on the same day and come back on the same day

Although Su Ming's boat is a second-class professional fishing boat, it is too small after all.

There are only five days in a month that are suitable for going to sea. The rest of the time is not to say you can't go out, but it's windy and rough on the high seas. For people who don't often run on the high seas, it's easy to get seasick.

"Let me think about it."

Although small sailboats cannot be washed out of the sea, they can be used to travel to and from the seven islands.

Regarding Su Ming and Xu Yan's skills, there is no problem in earning back funds within a month.

"Don't think about it, heart is better than action." Xu Yan loves sailing, not only for fishing at sea, but also very simply.

"When the driver's license was revoked, we went to the islands of the seven continents. ”。

"Hundreds of thousands of sailboats are too small to be transformed," Su Ming said. If you just want to play, you can order a small catamaran for tens of thousands of dollars to try. ”。

"Can you spend tens of thousands of dollars on a catamaran?" Suna said in the co-pilot.

"A five- or six-meter double-barreled sailboat, about 100,000 yuan, should be able to do it. The catamaran is more stable at sea...... "Su Ming said, "and when you drive it out, you can fish around the nearby islands." ”

Xu Yan thought for a while and said, "You mean a floating body with a grid in the middle?" ”

Su Ming said: "Okay, anyway, it's just fun, there's no need to do anything special." ”

"I still love monohull sailing..."

There's an exam tomorrow and it's too late to come back today. Su Ming went to a fish shop and bought more than a dozen catties of small fish.

Small trash fish is very cheap, more than eight yuan a catty.

"Why do you buy so much trash fish? It's not delicious," Mr. Xu said.

"It's for feeding cats," Suna said.

"Do you have a cat?"

"Stray cats in the community." Suna said, "All the stray cats in the community know my brother. ”

"Idle and boring, nothing to do." Su Ming glared at Suna angrily and blamed her for being talkative.

Back at home, Su Ming cleaned the fish and baked it in the oven

Su Ming spent a lot of effort to make more than a dozen catties of dried fish.

Suna made dinner.

Su Ming also dried some small fish and had dinner... Suna took over the work of grilling small dried fish.

Su Ming took some dried fish and went downstairs. What he saw online was that cats often eat fried fish, which is not good for their gut. It is then slowly baked in the oven to make dried fish.

It was dark and the orange streetlights in the neighborhood were dim.

The community has a small garden area and a park next to it.

There are a lot of stray cats in the community. Su Ming now regularly feeds four, a large orange, a civet flower, a leopard print, and a gray cat.

The most active part of cooking is the large oranges.

As soon as Su Ming got out of the elevator, he saw a big orange, which was a bit thin.

Their community is lonely. The entire neighborhood is lit up at night, and it is estimated that there are only a dozen households.

This gray cat seems to have a short tail and is very cute. This may be due to the different breeds. As a stray cat, Big Orange and Little Gray have a poor ability to survive. When I saw them before, Big Orange and Little Ash were very thin.

It's much better now.

Since feeding the big orange fish a few times, this guy has been active in Su Ming's unit. He would also guard the elevator at night and wait for Su Ming to come out

The same is true today. Just as Su Ming came out, the big orange rubbed and meowed.

"Go out ......," Su Min said.

Big Orange followed Su Ming step by step and came to the fitness area. Su Ming took out the lunch box and gave the big orange two fish.

The big oranges are delicious and gurgle in the mouth

Su Ming sat on the bench and watched the big orange cook. After a while, Xiaohui ran over.

Fai is supposed to be a British bobtail with a big head. She looks fat, but she's actually skinny.

"Come here," Su Ming shouted.

Xiaohui ran over slowly, and Su Ming took some dried fish and put them on the ground

Large oranges are most active in cooking and are eaten quickly. Soon, after eating the dried fish, I looked at Xiaohui's dried fish and wanted to catch it.

Su Ming gave Da Tang two more dried fish and took out his mobile phone to play. Seeing that it was too late to wait for civet flowers and leopard prints, he gave the remaining dried fish in the lunch box to Big Tachibana.

Big orange is a person who can eat

The next day.

Su Ming and Xu Yan easily passed the yacht operation test.

Suna also passed once.

Due to her nervousness, Zhou Lan made some mistakes in the first exam and passed the second make-up exam.

Yacht exams are still easy. For Su Ming and his family, it was much easier than learning to drive.

After getting the yacht driver's license, Su Ming and his family went to the city to see the car

Every day is subject 4 for a car driver's license. After the test, you can get your driver's license and come to see the car in advance.

"Hello." Zhao Tian shouted.

"Did you pass the exam?"

"Yes," Su Ming said.

"Nope."

"Forget it today, tomorrow we will take the car driver's license test......" Su Ming said: "After I go back, do more questions and try to take the test once." ”

"Then Zhao Tian and I went out."

"Okay."

Zhao Tiankai, a ship repair shop, also deals in second-hand ships. Zhao Tian has his own ship

In addition, there are many hulls of fishing boats outside the Zhaotian Shipyard. These hulls can be slightly trimmed and fitted to outboard motors.

When they came to the car dealership, Su Ming and them went to see Great Wall Motors first.

Su Ming's first choice was the Great Wall Cannon. He had seen the Great Wall Cannon on the Internet before. He said the trunk had a plastic mat that was not rusty.

The main purpose of buying a pickup truck is to facilitate the delivery of goods

To fish at sea, you have to have a large box. It was also very convenient to have a small truck to sell fish after landing.

I felt good after watching it

Su Ming doesn't understand cars. He mainly relied on the exterior, interior, and horsepower of the car.

"I feel good. It's still four-wheel drive," Mr. Xu said, sitting in the car.

Su Ming nodded: "Help me bargain." ”

Xu Yan drew a black line on his head and whispered, "You think you can bargain when you buy vegetables in the vegetable market." ”

"This can be said online."

Su Ming saw that the online price of this machine was 158,000, diesel 2.0T, automatic... Four-wheel drive.

The landing price seems to be 180,000.

There is no need for Xu to talk about price negotiations. Suna talks to the salesperson and asks if there is an event, if there is a discount

After a couple of surgeries, it was really a few thousand dollars cheaper. There are also free movies, three free maintenances, a 2,000 yuan gas card, car perfume and some gifts.

Su Ming is full of confidence in tomorrow's exam. He picked a red one, paid for it, and came to pick it up tomorrow when he got his license.

Dealers need to apply film to the car, which also takes time.

Xu Yan also bought one, low-profile manual two-wheel drive, black, more than 100,000 units.

"As a big man, you can also choose red." Xu Yan said on the way back.

"I just love bright reds and coquettishness." Su Ming took his mobile phone and did a mock test of subject four: "Tomorrow, subject four, you review it again, don't fail......"

"I've done it hundreds of times, no problem, I'll do it once." Xu Yan was full of confidence: "When will you get your yacht license and go out for a wave?" ”

Su Ming said: "The sea conditions on the high seas have not been good recently. When we finish the work at hand, we will head to the seven islands. ”

"Okay," Xu said, "to accompany me to the shipyard tomorrow to see the sailboats." ”

"Do you really want to buy a sailboat?" Su Min said.

"Let's take a look and find out the price." Xu Yan said, "If the price is right, I plan to buy a small sailboat to play with." ”

"Then let's go to the exam room early tomorrow." Su Ming said, "I have to pick up the car tomorrow......"

"Afternoon to the shipyard. Besides, do you dare to drive back after picking up the car? Let Zhou Lan and Xin Xin pick up the car. ”

"How dare you?"

"I think it's too much trouble to drive, but it's easier to drive. There were too many cars on the road and I felt a little guilty. ”

Zhou Lan said, "It's good to get used to it. I got my driver's license and bought a car before...... I didn't drive back alone. ”

It's too early to go home.

Suna cooks at home, and Su Ming takes the dried fish downstairs to feed the cat.

During the day, the cat doesn't know where to go. Su Ming shouted two big oranges, and then sat on a stool and played with his mobile phone. After waiting for more than ten minutes, the big oranges came to see Su Ming and trotted towards Su Ming

Su Ming smiled and took out the dried fish to feed it. He looked around and spotted civets and ocelots in the flower beds not far away: "Leopard, come here." ”

These two big cats are not close to people. Even Su Ming would feed them occasionally. Both cats are also cold... Just watched him from afar.

I didn't see little Gray today. Su Ming took out a few dried fish from the lunch box and handed them to the big oranges. He turned over the rest of the dried fish and gave it to the civet cat.

The four cats that Su Min came into contact with, the civet cats and the ocelot, had the highest grooming value, and they also loved to be clean.

Su Ming wanted to give them for a long time, but they were tall and cold. He often feeds them and does not touch them. That's why Big Orange is the closest to Su Ming, but Big Orange doesn't know how to live... Su Ming had already bathed the big orange twice, but in less than two days, it was dirty again.

The next day.

Subject 4: Su Ming and Xu Yan successfully passed an exam. In order to get a driver's license, they drove Zhou Lan's car to the car dealership.

The car paid for yesterday.

Near noon, when we came to the car dealership, the car dealer helped us get a temporary license plate. Xu Yan didn't dare to drive, so he handed the car to Suna and asked her to drive back to the island.

Su Ming held the steering wheel and first learned about the various functions of the car. Wait for Xu Yan to get in the car. Su Ming started the car, reversed, and moved forward.

Cars with automatic transmissions are easy to drive.

On the way, Xu Yan said nervously, "Be careful. ”

"Don't talk." There are a lot of cars and people on the road, as well as various traffic lights.

Su Ming's car was not driving fast. After leaving the city, he followed the navigation system to the gas station to refuel, and then looked at the address of the Nine Star Yacht Company: "Is there a shipyard nearby?" ”

They said the shipyard was a yacht yard and that Nine Star Yachts was located more than 60 kilometers away in the next city, Xinhe Town.

I just bought a car and got my driver's license. To be honest, Su Ming drove more than sixty kilometers, and he was still a little weak-hearted.

"In recent years, there have been several small shipyards, and Xinhe Yacht Company is still a big brand here, and the quality of the big brand is more guaranteed, after all, it is a sailing ......," Xu Yan said.

"Do you want to listen to music?" Su Ming planned the road and started the car.

"You concentrate on driving."

"What size sailboat do you want to buy?"

"Within ten meters. I don't have much money......"

Su Ming smiled and said, "If there is a suitable one, I will invest half of it and buy a keel ship." ”

"Okay." Xu Yan smiled.

Su Ming continued: "It's best to be between eight and nine meters. Go to the shipyard first, then look at the second-hand market. ”

The value of the sailing ship depreciated quickly. I'll ask Zhao Tian for help later to see if I can find the loophole.

Xu Yan contacted the shipyard yesterday. When he came to the shipyard, he made a phone call and a special person came to receive them.

The factory building of Nine Star Yacht Company is very large and can produce large yachts of 20 to 30 meters.

There are not many people sailing in China. They mostly play with mechanical power yachts and power boats. The company is also qualified to produce sailboats. The year before, it partnered with a sailing club in Gangnam to let sailboats sail around the world.

One meter is about 3.28 feet.

For an experienced sailor, a 24-foot sailboat can sail around the world.

24 feet, over 6 meters.

For comfortable global navigation, the ideal size is 35-45 feet. The comfort, speed, and cargo carrying capacity of a boat of this size are the best choice for long voyages.

But for ordinary people, if they want to travel more comfortably, if they want to go to Korea. countries, RB and some countries in Southeast Asia, a 26-foot sailboat can meet the demand.

If you want to travel the world, you need to be more than 40 feet.

There are no big ships around the world, and a lot of seafaring experience and technology are also needed.

Whether it's a sailboat or other boats, the larger ones are more comfortable.

If you have the money, you can buy a big boat to practice. On a budget, buy a small boat to practice sailing skills.

The shipyard has only one sailboat that can sail under 10 meters.

A sailboat capable of sailing long distances and complying with EU standards

The sailboat is 9.9 meters long and has a triangular bedroom and a long guest room. The hull price is 850,000 yuan (tax included).

Buying a boat is like buying a house.

You can buy a finely furnished or rough house. 750,000 yuan is equivalent to a rough house

9.9 meters are not considered.

Su Ming and them followed the 8-meter-long sailboat, which was still a keelboat with cabins. But the structure is relatively simple

Such boats can only be played in China. It is not possible to apply for a nautical visa from other countries, and the seaworthy area is also offshore. Hull plus mast and sail... Together with the three certificates, the total cost is 260,000 yuan.

"There are sailing boats like this on Shancheng Island," Mr. Xu said.

Su Ming said "um" and left the hut with Xu Yan.

"9.9 meters, 1 million yuan." Su Ming said, "It's too expensive. ”

"It's not expensive, it's cheap." Xu said: "If it is a foreign sailing ship of the same class, it is basically more than 1.5 million. ”

Su Ming's one million is a conservative estimate.

The hull will cost 850,000 yuan, and the equipment on board will add up to at least 300,000 yuan.

These devices include sea anchors, autopilots, storm sails, EPIRBs (Radio Emergency Position Indicators), satellite phones, heavy life rafts, and more.

For a 9.9-meter boat, if it is really going to sail, then the strength structure of the boat should be upgraded to another level. The stronger the hull structure, the more suitable the boat is for long voyages

Su Ming said: "The new ship is too expensive. ”

Xu Yan scratched his head and said: "In recent years, it has been too expensive not to consider galleons. A small boat can be used for training. If you have money in the future, you can buy a ten-meter sailboat abroad. Foreign second-hand sailboats are cheap. ”

Su Ming smiled and nodded: "You can buy a board to play with." ”

Xu Yan's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "This idea is reliable. ”

Xu Yan then took out his mobile phone and clicked on JD.com to search for windsurfers. Cheap windsurfing boards with sails cost a few thousand dollars. The price is over 20000

"I'll buy two, and you give me back," Ms. Xu said.

"Okay. See what is better and buy ......"

Xu Yan studied for a while and said, "Don't buy the right one, only buy the most expensive one." Is the sail 4 meters or 5 meters? ”

"Buy two. Play 4.0 first, then 5.0 after mastering. Su Ming said.
