He is worthy of being a descendant of a shipwright.

It only took two hours for Dao Ye to let the bearded and other laymen have a certain understanding of the shipbuilding history of Yangcheng.

He was so thirsty that he couldn't care about the demeanor of drinking tea anymore, so he drank a large vat of tea and continued:

"After the founding of the People's Republic of China, in order to accelerate the development of Yangcheng's shipbuilding industry, the government merged and transformed 94 private shipyards, machinery factories and boiler factories in Yangcheng, and finally became the current five state-owned shipyards."

He also made a brief introduction to the shipbuilding characteristics of several shipyards.

In the era of planned economy with public ownership as the main body, how difficult it is to order a ship with money is not reminded by the knife master, and the bearded man knows it.

He didn't plan to go around in circles, so he simply asked:

"Dao Ye, I heard what you said about the shipbuilding history of Yangcheng and thought it was very interesting, can you please help me find some craftsmen with shipbuilding experience in Yangcheng, and make the Mulan boat or the late Ming and Qing Dynasty ships you just mentioned into ship models?"

The Jianghu knife master, who has great connections, was stunned for a moment.

He also thought that the other party wanted to buy a boat, and as a result, this is it?

"I don't want the kind of ship model that is used for decoration, but the kind of ship model that is 100% restored according to a certain proportion of the real thing, and the principle, structure, material selection, process, and size of the real ship must be indicated. This job requires a master craftsman who has experience in building real ships. As long as you can take orders, the conditions are free for the other party to mention. ”

"This matter is on me, and I will definitely give an answer to Brother Hu within half a month." Dao Ye has some confidence in this task.

Don't let private people build ships, but don't say you don't let you build molds!

Next, of course, the guests and hosts were happy, and the bearded man handed over the fifty tons of palm oil prepared early in the morning to Dao Ye according to his previous promise, and also gave him a hundred barrels of palm kernel oil.

Xide Dao Ye repeatedly made a guarantee, and promised to find a master for him as soon as he returned to Yangcheng.

It's eleven o'clock at night.

On Changzhou Island in the southeast of Yangcheng, in an ordinary dormitory, a man's low cough sounded.

"Ahem, cough, cough"

"Ahem, cough, cough"

Even though he repeatedly controlled the volume of his voice, the sound of continuous coughing still reached the downstairs.

It was the dead of night, and the family downstairs couldn't help but mumble because their sleep was affected.

"Master Cai on the top floor, cough cough all day long, everyone in a building is afraid of him!"

"That's tuberculosis, I've been taking medicine for more than a year, and I haven't seen any better. He used to receive the salary of a fourth-level senior technician, but it's a pity."

Speaking of this Master Cai, the neighbors and their husbands couldn't help sighing.

He was born into a family of shipbuilders, and his ancestors were engaged in shipbuilding during the Qing Dynasty.

In Master Cai's generation, five fathers and brothers are all in this industry.

Master Cai himself has been exposed to it since he was a child, and at the age of seventeen, he worked in a civilian shipyard in Yangcheng.

The young man is quite able to endure hardships, and has done all kinds of gray work, carpentry, etc.

At that time, shipbuilding was all based on experience, there were no teaching materials and drawings, no automated machinery and equipment, and it relied on word of mouth, more reading, more pondering, and more hands-on.

The production process of wooden sailing boats is very cumbersome, different parts have different size requirements, and the materials used are also different.

Talent and hard work, in just six years, he became the youngest "master" of the shipyard.

Later, the shipyard restructuring was merged into today's Huangpu Shipyard, and he became a senior technician in a state-owned shipyard with his true skills.

Unfortunately, the good times were short-lived.

A year ago, he was diagnosed with tuberculosis because of a high fever that did not go away and blood in his cough.

After being admitted to the hospital, he was first treated with medication and taken isoniazid every day.

Later, the treatment was not effective, and pneumothorax therapy was used, which is to inject filtered air between the pleura and the lung membranes to compress the lungs and reduce their activity.

After tossing and turning in the hospital for more than three months, the condition was barely controlled.

After being discharged from the hospital, according to the doctor's instructions, the medicine must be taken again, and the phlegm must be checked once a month.

Recovery from tuberculosis usually takes one to two years.

This is an infectious disease, who would dare to share a room with him?

There was no way to continue the work, and thinking of his contribution to the shipyard, he did not drive him out of the dormitory on the top floor of the shipyard.

In his forties, he was obsessed with shipbuilding, and he didn't have a family.

During the more than a year of recuperation at home, his brothers would take turns to bring him the meals cooked at home and help him take away the garbage.

It is inconvenient to go out, in addition to taking medicine on time to exercise, he spends a lot of time reading.

Dao Ye's connections are really not boastful in Yangcheng, and it only took a week for Master Cai's information to be placed in front of him.

Looking at the background of his work, as well as the sailboats he built, he is a proper all-round talent.

If it weren't for tuberculosis, such a master would be a treasure in someone's shipyard.

Dao Ye is not afraid of being infected, as long as the other party is willing to take orders, he can place him in a separate hospital to live in.

It was a little difficult to contact me directly, but Dao Ye still contacted Master Cai's seventy-year-old father through his grandfather.

At first glance, it is the sword master of the rivers and lakes, and the other party's great ability is famous in Yangcheng.

Before Lao Cai agreed to help pass the word, Master Cai also asked if Master Dao could find a famous doctor for his son.

Old Master Cai's health is not very good, he has been stiff and has not fallen, and the most reassuring thing is the most talented youngest son in the family.

This favor really has to help, only when you are healthy, the work will be more profitable!

While inquiring, the famous doctor in Yangcheng also left a message for the bearded man, indicating that he was doing something, and he would be able to work after he cured the tuberculosis for the master.

With current medical technology, how long does it take to completely cure tuberculosis?

Tuberculosis is actually a respiratory infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection, which mainly occurs in lung tissue, trachea, bronchi and pleura.

In the 21st century, it is still one of the major infectious diseases in the Dragon Kingdom.

I have to praise Master Cai's good luck, this infectious disease with a very high mortality rate, in the eleventh level civilization, can only be cured by eating bacteriophage enzyme for three days.

Master Cai was very hesitant when he saw that the old father Baba sent it was said to be a special drug that had just been developed abroad.

Lao Cai didn't care:

"The sword master is the soil emperor of Yangcheng, and people have made it clear that they are here for your craft, and they can still send poison to harm you? It's been more than a year, how many Western medicines have you taken, and how many home remedies have you taken? With just two pills in three days, how bad can you eat? ”

Well, the old man will test him on him, and eat it.
