Chapter 33: Salvage Ebony

You know, almost all sea ships are sharp-bottomed ships. There are two possibilities for this flat-bottomed ship, or it is a cruise ship in the river and lake, or it is an ancient ship.
This Qianliyan is in the sea, so this ship is definitely not the former. He can only have one identity: this is an ancient ship!
Xiao Peng thought for a while, and went into the water personally to find out.
The consciousness clone can observe and practice, but it cannot move the sunken ship. When you are a coolie, you still have to rely on Xiao Peng himself.
After Xiao Peng dived, he carefully observed the shipwreck. Due to the mud and sand on the seabed, only the bottom of the ship could be seen. The ship was about 20 meters long. Xiao Peng carefully observed the workmanship of the hull. It really did not look like a modern ship. Craftsmanship, the hull uses a large number of tenon and tenon joints, and there is no iron nails at all.
Xiao Peng's curiosity was aroused, and he simply cleaned up the mud and sand on the seabed that buried the hull of the ship, trying to lift the ship out of the mud.
Unfortunately, Xiao Peng overestimated his strength. Although Xiao Peng's current physical strength has been greatly improved, it is too unrealistic to drag a shipwreck more than 20 meters long from the sea mud on the seabed.
Xiao Peng thought for a while and came up with a way.
The Alarei has a winch, and the pneumatic winch on the Alarei uses a 30-millimeter steel cable with a traction force of 20 tons.
Xiao Peng ran back to the ship, dropped the steel cable, fixed the steel cable to the sunken ship, and started the winch.
Sure enough, the power of science and technology is still great. With the help of the winch, the ancient ship was really dragged out of the mud.
Xiao Peng quickly observed through his mind clone, but was disappointed. It’s true that this is an ancient ship, but it’s just a transport ship that doesn’t know what dynasty is, and it’s either transporting good things or timber.
The ship was pulling three logs with a diameter of more than one meter and a length of more than ten meters, but I don't know how long it has been buried in the seabed. Can't see the true colors.
Xiao Peng was disappointed and couldn't leave empty-handed even after thinking about it. He simply pulled a piece of wood back. Isn't it okay to build a chicken coop? After working hard for a long time, I always need a flashlight to harvest! "Thieves don't go empty"!
Thinking of this, Xiao Peng used a steel cable to fix it, dragged a piece of wood, and returned home.
When Xiao Peng returned to the dock, Yang Meng was driving there.
The so-called chasing the sea is to look for seafood on the reef when the tide is low. What sea shells, conch, sea oysters and the like.
Seeing Xiao Peng coming back, Yang Meng ran to the dock to help tie the rope. After everything was done, Yang Meng discovered that Xiao Peng had dragged a large log behind the boat.
"Damn, when people are fishing, you fish for wood. What are you doing when the whole big wood comes back?" Yang Meng looked dumbfounded.
Xiao Peng didn't lie either: "If you get it from the sea, you can use it to build a chicken coop. You don't need to destroy the greenery and cut the trees on the island."
Yang Meng did not speak, staring at the wood in the sea for a long time, then turned around and used the gantry crane of the dock to lift the wood to the dock. Then he squatted in front of the wood without talking, just squatted there and kept observing, still scratching on the wood.
"Mengzi, you are stupid? What's so good about a piece of broken wood?" Xiao Peng stopped the boat and jumped onto the dock.
Yang Meng tilted his head and looked at Xiao Peng, "Broken Wood? What you call Broken Wood, it's okay to change your ship."
Xiao Peng was taken aback: "What kind of wood is so valuable?"
"This is pure golden nan ebony! I haven't seen it for many years, but it is definitely a good thing!" Yang Meng introduced.
"Golden nanmu is another name for Zinan and Zhennan, and even as the king of cork. In ancient times, the pillars of the emperor’s palace were almost all used this thing. The rich people in the ancient times said that they were ready for good nanmu. The coffin also refers to this kind of wood. And ebony refers to the wood that has been buried in the soil due to changes in the ground. It is also called gloomy wood. There is a saying that even if there is a box of jewelry, it is not as good as ebony. There are others like this. Said: Golden Wanliang was sent to the local government in exchange for ebony to sacrifice to the heavens. The price has reached sky-high prices two years ago. The market has almost collapsed in the past two years, but good things are still good things. The best golden nan ebony is still sky-high."
Yang Meng lit a cigarette, looked at Xiao Peng who was already stunned triumphantly, and continued: "Golden nan is also worth money, and ebony is also worth money. Then you say that nan ebony is more valuable? Look at it. This wood, with golden threads appearing, shining golden, yellowish and greenish in color, this is the gloomy wood green material of Phoebe Phoebe! The best gloomy wood of Phoebe Phoebe!"
Xiao Peng listened to Yang Meng's explanation, but didn't know what to say: "Mengzi, you are too good, how do you know this?"
Yang Meng listened, with a smug expression on his face: "You forgot what I did? Open rentals during the day and barbecue stalls at night. Which one is not a nonsense job? The more you pull, the more you know. chant."
Xiao Peng jumped back to the boat and untied the rope: "Hurry up, there are two more in the sea."
Transporting three golden nan ebony trees to the pier, they were exhausted. This ebony can weigh more than ten tons. If it weren't for the cranes on the dock, it would be impossible to transport them ashore with Xiao Peng and the other two.
Xiao Peng and Yang Meng were sitting on the ebony and smoking cigarettes, looking at the three big ebony trees. Only then did Xiao Peng know what the trouble of happiness is.
Mengzi looked at Xiao Peng: "How to deal with this stuff?"
Xiao Peng said with a bitter face, "How do I know? Just thinking about the value of this thing, hurry up. Now it's a big trouble, right?"
Whether the trading of ebony is legal or not is controversial. Once someone found ebony in some provinces and cities, it was confiscated. The reason is that the "General Principles of Civil Law" stipulates that buried objects should be owned by the state. However, according to the law, it is not illegal to buy and sell ebony. Where did the ebony for sale come from?
Xiao Peng didn't want to make trouble for himself, anyway, he was not short of money, so keep it for himself. However, I checked it online and found that the price of this golden nan ebony is really amazing, and the price of such a large piece is doubled.
Yang Meng heard Xiao Peng say that the ebony was kept, and ran all the way to the warehouse, and unexpectedly brought a chainsaw back.
"What are you going to do?" Xiao Peng asked.
Yang Meng chuckled, "It just so happens that I don't think Caidunzi is useful, so I cut a section to make Caidunzi."
"What's the trouble? You make Caidunzi with such expensive wood? Besides, didn't you say that Jinsinan is the king of cork? Can cork be used as Caidunzi?" Xiao Peng completely defeated Yang Meng.
"Ebony is considered to be carbonized wood. It is absolutely strong. It's okay to make vegetable piers." Yang Meng was still gesticulating with the chainsaw.
"That's not okay. I checked on the Internet just now. The good golden nan and ebony are six thousand and twelve, and the larger ones are more expensive. If you really use them to make vegetable dumplings, it will be thundered." Xiao Peng firmly refused.
Yang Meng kicked the wood: "Then what do we do? Just put this stuff here? We can't move him without a forklift. This stuff is the best material for furniture, but who of us can do woodworking? ?"
Xiao Peng heard Yang Meng's words and his eyes lit up: "What's so difficult about carpentry? I will! Not to mention making furniture, carving is all right!" Xiao Peng is really no nonsense. , There is the inheritance of knowledge about woodworking.
Yang Meng looked at Xiao Peng in disbelief: "Blow! It's hard to blow! We have known each other for so many years, so it's all right for you to blow to others, have you blown up with me?"
Xiao Peng whitened Yang Meng and said, "What did I blow? That is, there are no woodworking tools, otherwise I will show you."
Yang Meng listened and laughed: "Who said there is no tool? A full set of electric woodworking tools are in the warehouse. Pistol drill, cutting machine, slotting machine, polishing machine, engraving machine, etc., everything!"
Feeling liver pain, Xiao Peng looked directly at Yang Meng, and slowly raised his right hand: "Excuse me, what do you buy woodworking tools for?"
Yang Meng scratched his head with a look of embarrassment: "The shop owner told me that they are necessary for repairing fishing boats. I bought one of the same tools and shipped it to the island. I realized that our boat is Carbon fiber and alloy hulls are not used at all."
"Nima is exploded!"
To prove that he was not bragging, Xiao Peng cut off a piece of wood and prepared to make some gadgets.
What should I do? Xiao Peng hesitated again and again and decided to make a pipe. Wasn't Popeye just holding a pipe?
In Xiao Peng's inheritance of knowledge, he used primitive tools. At the beginning, he was not used to using electric tools. After he became familiar with the tools, Xiao Peng devoted himself to making pipes.
What he did was not a different pipe, and he felt that he couldn't highlight his skills.
He is to make a dragon-shaped pipe. In the inheritance of knowledge, this needs to be shaped with one knife and one knife. With an electric engraving machine, it is much easier. Two hours later, a dragon-shaped pipe with great flexibility appeared in front of Yang Meng's eyes.
Yang Meng looked at the pipe in his hand, and both his eyes looked straight: "Well, you are so good! Look at this line, every dragon scale is so detailed. Just rely on this. Craftsmanship, you can also make a fortune."
Xiao Peng is indeed dissatisfied: "The tools are unfamiliar, and they are not very good."
Yang Meng stretched out his hand and gave it a thumbs up: "This is forcing you to pretend. I give full marks. Isn't that great? Then I keep it."
Xiao Peng curled his lips: "Look at your prowess, let me make another one."
With the first experience in making pipes, Xiao Peng was familiar with the use of electric tools. Making a second pipe is even more familiar.
This time, instead of making a dragon-shaped pipe, he made a wolf-shaped pipe.
The front end of the pipe is just a wolf head with a cracked mouth, and the erect wolf tail is the handle of the pipe. On the whole, this is a lone wolf ready to go.
Xiao Peng made this pipe with great concentration. Each wolf hair is meticulously portrayed, and the wolf head is carved with care. The open wolf beak and protruding wolf teeth are more lifelike.
After the polishing was over, Xiao Peng put the pipe in his hand and observed repeatedly, and finally nodded: "This still seems like that for a while." After finishing speaking, he carved a character Peng at the bottom of the cigarette holder, which is considered to be lost. This is also a habit learned in the inheritance of knowledge.
Yang Meng looked at Xiao Peng's lone wolf pipe and swallowed, "Brother Peng, please take my knees, I'm completely kneeling."
Xiao Peng laughed and said, "Even if you really kneel down, I won't give this to you. I will keep this for myself. Anyway, there is a lot of wood, so I can play a few more when I have time."
It's getting late, and making a pipe will definitely delay dinner. Yang Meng took the pipe in his hand and said happily, "Okay, you have made a pipe today. You are rewarded and rewarded. I rushed to the sea to find a lot of small seafood today. Wiped them out."
