After waking up the next day, Qin Shiou almost forgot what happened last night. He remembered that he was miserable in the bar, and then he seemed to have invited a very tall guy to dinner.
Poseidon’s energy is a good thing. He was so drunk last night. When he woke up from sleep, Qin Shiou became fierce and fierce again.
Vini was still cooking porridge for Qin Shiou in the kitchen, but the latter ran a lap outside, and came back sweating profusely and took a shower, looking more energetic than the early Vini.
While eating breakfast, Winnie said, “I still can’t forget. That big guy was too good to eat last night. How many pizzas did he eat? Ten? Fifteen?!”
Qin Shiou had some vague impressions, but he didn’t remember clearly, so he casually said: “It’s really a great appetite. Shaq will come and ask who that guy is later.”
Shaq drove the truck to the fishing ground with the sea monster. Qin Shiou asked him about his work plan. The sea monster said, “There’s nothing wrong with it today. I’m going to visit the market in St. John’s and assemble two small boats.”
Qin Shiou nodded, and said, “Indeed, we need to buy a ship, but before buying a ship, do we need to repair the dock?”
The wharf of the fishing ground is a common high-piled wharf. It is composed of foundation piles and superstructure. The lower part of the pile is driven into the seabed, and the upper part is above the water surface. Then the steel beam is used as a skeleton, and the upper part is covered with wooden boards, which extends all the way into the ocean.
High-piled wharf has an advantage. It adopts an air-permeable structure. Waves and currents can pass under the wharf. The impact resistance to waves is small, which saves materials and is simple and reliable.
But this kind of wharf is not very safe. The foundation piles are deep into the sea, and are subject to the impact of waves and sea water. After a long period of time, problems such as decay and chipping will naturally occur.
Especially when Daqin Fishery used charred tree trunks instead of the commonly used prestressed concrete pipe piles, the safety was greatly compromised.
In addition, this pier is only more than 20 meters deep into the sea, and Qin Shiou thinks the pier is a bit small.
“Boss, do you plan to repair the dock?” Shaq asked with interest.
Qin Shiou nodded and said, “And I plan to build a gravity dock.”
Hearing this, both Shaq and the sea monster took a breath.
Gravity wharf is a traditional wharf, which is reclaimed from the sea to make land. It directly extends from the land to the depth of the sea. Because this kind of wharf is stable by the weight of the building and the filling weight of the structure range, it is called a gravity wharf.
Don’t look at this kind of wharf as an old-fashioned wharf. In fact, the cost is very high. It requires a large amount of cement masonry and steel main frame.
The advantage of the gravity wharf is that it has good structural integrity, strong and durable, easy to repair after damage, and is safe and convenient.
“How long are you going to fix?” Shaq asked.
Qin Shiou had thought about it before, and said, “How about the 20-meter one?”
Shake breathed a sigh of relief, and said, “According to the depth of the ocean on our dock and it was rebuilt on the original dock, I estimate that a 20-meter gravity dock can be repaired at about four to five million yuan.”
“There is still a one-hundred-meter-long repair.” Qin Shiou added.
Shaq and the sea monsters turned green. The one-hundred-meter gravitational wharf stretches one hundred meters into the ocean. Even a 10,000-ton giant ship is enough!
“Don’t be like this, BOSS, a 100-meter gravity wharf is not as simple as 20 meters multiplied by five. It needs, needs, and requires a lot of money!” Shaq stretched out his arms exaggeratedly and drew a big circle, “We have no fishing grounds. This kind of dock is necessary!”
Qin Shiou smiled and said, “Do you need to be so worried? The 100-meter-long wharf I am talking about is not a gravity wharf. Just use prestressed concrete pipe piles as a high-pile wharf.”
Shaq and the sea monster laughed, and said, “That also costs a lot of money. Our fishery does not need such a long wharf.”
Qin Shiou felt that there must be such a pier. He opened the fishing grounds and was not a trivial mess. With the sea **** consciousness as a cheating device, he intends to make the Farewell Island fishing ground the world’s first fishing ground!
After getting a rough idea, Qin Shiou put the matter on the agenda and asked Shaq to find the construction team. Shaq said with a headache: “We have to go to St. John’s to find the bigfoot guy. He knows a lot of people. , Can help.”
Anyway, he was about to buy a ship, and Qin Shiou made a decisive decision and took Winnie, Shaq, and sea monsters to St. John’s.
On the boat, Qin Shiou remembered the giant he met last night, and asked: “Shake, is there a two-meter-high guy in the town?”
Shaq laughed: “There is such a big man, but he shouldn’t be in town now, what’s the matter?”
Qin Shiou said in confusion: “No, I met him last night, he is definitely more than two meters tall.”
The sea monster nodded, and said, “You said Ivorson.”
“Yes, that’s the name.” Qin Shiou suddenly remembered the name the owner of the food store called the giant last night, “Who is he?”
Shaq and the sea monster didn’t seem to want to talk about this person, they shrugged and mumbled ‘not too familiar with him’ and pretended to be busy.
Qin Shiou wanted to follow up and ask, Winnie gave him a hand, and whispered: “Forget it, they don’t want to say it. By the way, don’t you think this name is weird? Ivorson? Is it Evil-son? ?”
Newfoundlanders respect their parents very much, so many people give names and add a ‘son’ after their father’s name.
For example, Shaq’s name is Shaq-Sardinson, this ‘Sardinson’ means ‘Sardin-son’, the son of Sardin. There is also the old Hickson who runs the restaurant. His name means ‘Son of Hick’.
And Ivorson, if it is the spelling of Evil-son, it is the ‘son of sin’!
Qin Shiou doesn’t think anyone will call him the son of sin, just like the Huaxia people don’t call themselves ‘criminal’.
Qin Shiou drove a trawl yacht to St. John’s. His yacht was brand new. The exquisite piano paint reflected the sunlight, making the entire yacht look like a Helios warship. When entering the dock, many owners whistled. .
Bigfoot Reyek was waiting for a group of people on the shore. His work efficiency was very high. He was accompanied by a tall and thin black man. After Qin Shiou went ashore, he introduced: “This is the sir. He has a construction team that specializes in construction. Wharf, you can have a good chat.”
The two shook hands. Although Weir was a black man, he was very educated. After a slight bow, he said: “Boss Qin, I am the chief engineer of the Weir Construction Group. You can ask. Our construction group has a good reputation. If you can trust us, then I have to go to your fishing ground to see the situation, and then give you a design material and quotation.”
Qin Shiou trusts Shaq very much, Shaq trusts Reyek very much, so that suspicious people do not need to use people, Qin Shiou told him the location, gave him Nielsen’s phone number, and asked him to go to the fishery to find Nielsen.
The main task today is to buy boats. Reyek’s ‘Viking Fishery Shop’ could not afford this task, so a group of people went to the free market in St. John’s.
The free market is the iconic existence of St. John’s. It is located along a bay in the southwest of the town. This market is not the kind of vegetable market made up of hawkers. It is full of large shops selling fishing boat accessories and sea fishing products.
“Let’s take a look at the small boat first.” Qin Shiou said, “Buy two open-head boats or deck boats, and usually go out to sea to drive them. It’s fast, fuel-efficient, and very cool.”
The sea monster said: “I can assemble this, BOSS, what style do you like?”
Generally speaking, if yachts are classified according to length, mini-boats under six meters, small boats between six and eleven meters, medium-sized boats between eleven and twenty meters, and large yachts over twenty-meters.
As for the luxury yachts commonly seen in movies, almost all of them are 40 meters away. Now Qin Shiou doesn’t consider buying this thing, he hasn’t been so ruined yet.
The open boat is a motor boat that can take four to eight people. It is suitable for racing, fishing and towing water skiing. It is mainly used for recreational activities.
There is no main cabin under the first deck of this small boat. The front deck of the bridge is made of an open groove type. Additional seats can be arranged for driving or sunbathing. Of course, fish can also be installed.
The advantage of the open-head boat is that if you are driving at sea, the person sitting in the recessed seat in front of the bridge will feel that you are riding on the top of the wave and can enjoy the thrill of riding the wind and waves.
The sea monster introduced: “Boats are generally divided into four design styles. The Italian and Crimean styles are also called romantic styles, which embodies luxury and elegance; the American style is called the free style, which pays much attention to personalized design; the British style is called the nobility. The style embodies the traditional and elegant aristocratic atmosphere everywhere, and then the Southeast Asian style that has recently emerged, which is simple, generous and affordable.”
Qin Shiou thought for a while, and said: “Buy two open-head boats, one is in the Crimean style, and the other is in the Southeast Asian style.”
Cromian-style boats can go fishing, and Southeast Asian-style boats can go to sea to check fish conditions.
