The moment he saw Li Sang, Oda Norio was so excited. He didn't know why. When he arrived in China, the person he trusted the most was this man who spoke fluent Japanese and had a strange Tokyo accent. Chinese.
Their live fish transport ship has been trapped here for seven or eight hours. Now, what they fear most is a sudden change in the weather.
Although a large ship is not easy to capsize, its draft is also deep, and there are reefs not far away. It would be dangerous if strong winds pushed their ship near the reefs.
But sometimes, that's just the way it is, whatever you're afraid of will come.
An hour ago, the wind suddenly started blowing, and then the weather suddenly changed.
The most obvious thing is that the waves began to get bigger. After the fishermen saw this situation, all small fishing boats in the open sea had to return to port.
Because in winter, the sea surface will be windy, especially during the period when the temperature has just cooled down. After the sea surface temperature drops sharply, it is often a precursor to the northeasterly wind.
As long as the temperature drops sharply, within a day, northeasterly winds of magnitude 7 to 10 may blow from the sea surface, which locals generally call "falling northeasterly winds."
Every time there is a northeasterly wind, fishermen do not go out to sea because the wind on the sea surface is very strong and the offshore fish all run to the deep sea.
Therefore, the longer we wait, the more anxious Oda Norio and the captain of the transport ship become. They have already looked for local rescue.
But the rescue equipment was so poor that it didn't even have an insulated diving or oxygen supply device, so we had to hold our breath and cut the ropes.
As a result, everyone was shivering with cold, and not much of the net rope wrapped around the propeller was cut.
Oda Norio was in a hurry. Originally, he wanted to come here to make money, but by then, the money had not been earned and the ship had been stranded. The rescue fee would have been sky-high.
But the moment he saw Li Sang, he felt particularly safe, because this young man gave him a very special feeling.
So far, the record for the tuna he caught is still unbeatable by any angler in the nearby county.
I feel that the record was taken away by the Chinese. I feel it is too embarrassing and I have long wanted to break his record.
But two years have passed, and no one can break Li Sang's record, no matter it's eel, kelp, or shrimp.
This young man breeds very well, giving people a very reliable feeling, especially with this year's shrimp plague.
He felt that there would definitely be problems with Li Sang's shrimp farming. If there were problems, he would have to lose money according to the contract.
But the shrimp plague was no different from a natural disaster, and he was prepared to waive the compensation. After all, he was very comfortable working with this young man, and he didn't want to lose such a partner.
But what he didn't expect was that Li Sang's shrimp farm survived the shrimp plague at a very small cost.
Many of the prawns imported by island countries come from China's overseas provinces. However, this year's overseas provinces have suffered, and there are no shrimps to export at all.
This has led to a large-scale shrimp shortage in their island country. Since last month, the price of prawns has been rising sharply.
If he could import prawns from Li Sang, his profit would be at least five to ten times that, which is why he came here in a hurry.
Unexpectedly, the sea route that was smooth to travel last year was actually covered with kelp fields this year, and it happened to be a bit foggy in the early morning.
By the time everyone discovered the kelp field, it was too late to turn around. Not only had they crashed into it, but the propellers were also tangled with kelp ropes.
After Li Duoyu greeted Norio Oda, he immediately observed the situation at the scene.
It was really a headache. This live fish transport ship, which was more than 80 meters long, was forced into it and directly washed away nearly two acres of kelp field.
Coincidentally, Li Duoyu actually knew the owner of this kelp field. He was his old classmate, Zhang Zhenping.
He was also at the scene. After seeing Li Duoyu, he immediately said hello.
Since the class reunion, this old classmate has been very obedient and spent a lot of money to start kelp farming.
Now, apart from the village party secretary, he is the one who breeds the most kelp in Langqi Village.
"Duoyu, long time no see."
Unexpectedly, Li Duoyu instead laughed and scolded: "This kelp field of yours has made a mess. Don't raise it on the waterway in the future."
Zhang Zhenping was a little embarrassed. He didn't know what a channel was, and he didn't expect that a ship would crash into his kelp field.
Kelp fields already require a lot of brown rope, but now you don't have to think about what's going on with the propellers.
They were probably tied into rice dumplings.
"It's difficult!"
After Li Duoyu arrived, the iron-hulled boat from the coast patrol came over immediately. This time they came with a total of four people.
The three people on the boat were all gathered around a stove. Their faces were pale, their hair was still wet, and they were all trembling and cold.
Director Liu Zhifeng, who was in charge of the rescue, couldn't help but sigh after seeing him.
"Sorry, Director Li, I feel like I'm going to cause you trouble again. We really can't handle this."
He was the one who really called Li Duoyu over to help because Li Duoyu helped them save a fishing boat in the Overseas Province last time.
Director Liu Zhifeng has already discovered that Li Duoyu has rich experience in sea rescue.
Seeing that the northeasterly wind was about to come, the first thing Liu Zhifeng thought of was Li Duoyu.
Maybe he would have a solution, so he contacted the Fisheries Bureau and asked them to notify Li Duoyu.
I didn't expect it to come so soon.
After Li Duoyu's fishing boat approached the coast guard's iron-hulled boat, Li Duoyu jumped directly onto the other side's boat.
"Director Liu, thank you for your hard work. Can you tell me what's going on now?"
"I'll let Huaishan tell you."
Xu Huaishan, whose lips were black and his whole body was trembling, took a deep breath and said: "The situation in the sea is a bit complicated. There are piles of these kelps. When we first went to the sea to cut, we caught at least a dozen kelps.
Most of the connections to the sea piles have been cut off by us, leaving only a few to secure the transport ship.
But the most difficult thing is that our water resistance is not very good.”
Comrade Xu Huaishan's lips trembled while he was talking, and his whole body was shaking uncontrollably. He was already showing signs of hypothermia.
When Li Duoyu saw what was going on, he quickly said, "Don't worry, just go and warm yourself by the fire and drink some hot water."
After Li Duoyu learned about the situation, he finally understood that they had started the rescue four hours ago.
Since there were a lot of kelp ropes wrapped around the bottom, and they were all with stakes, they initially tried to use a nearby large boat to pull it out of the kelp field, but they couldn't do it at all.
These people had been in the water many times, but since they were not professional rescuers, they did not dare to dive for too long each time, so in the end they only cut some brown ropes that were easier to cut.
But almost none of the ropes wrapped around the propeller had been cut off, and according to their description, there were a lot of brown ropes stuck in the big propeller.
The current position of the propeller is about two to three meters from the water surface.
When encountering this situation, Li Duoyu did not rush forward, but frowned and thought about it.
Underwater operations are already very difficult, and now they don't even have a diving suit.
Even if there is, it is estimated that no one will be able to use it without training, which will increase the difficulty.
For Chen Wenchao, who is very good at water, he can dive for four to five minutes at a time without any problem.
His highest record was holding his breath in the water for seven minutes. As for Liu Yun's water quality, he was not bad at it. Because this guy had an "experience", he was taken directly by Li Duoyu this time.
When he came to Dandan Island to steal oysters, the shrimp boat he was driving was entangled in the fishing nets. As a result, he could cut the fishing nets open even in the dark. Fortunately, they acted quickly, otherwise he might have escaped. .
But in terms of cleaning propellers, Liu Yun may be better than Chen Wenchao.
The other two are Shitou and Uncle Pan. Shitou's water properties are not bad, but they are not as good as Chen Wenchao and Liu Yunlai.
As for Uncle Pan, he is what everyone calls a "water ghost". In this era, water ghosts in the sea do not specifically refer to divers who specialize in underwater operations, but are more related to some bad things.
On the island, everyone rarely sees this person on weekdays. Maybe the people in this industry are relatively withdrawn and don't like to interact with outsiders.
And he is also very special, he seems to have hives or something on his body, and he is often shirtless even in winter.
Anyway, Li Duoyu doesn't see him a few times throughout the year, and the villagers try not to mention him.
Only when scolding and cursing each other, he would scold and say: I hope your whole family will go find Lao Pan, this is what he said.
Uncle Pan is undoubtedly the most experienced person here, but he is a bit old and I don't know if he has enough physical strength.
This time, Li Duoyu first asked Uncle Pan for his opinion: "Can it be done in weather like today?"
Uncle Pan was wearing a vest in the winter, smoking a cigarette, staring directly at the stern of the transport ship, his brows furrowed, waiting for him to finish the last puff of his cigarette.
"It can be done, but I have to ask Mazu first if he agrees with us."
Then, under the surprised eyes of everyone, the water ghost took out not only the fragrance of worship, but also a pair of holy cups from his clothes.
Director Liu Zhifeng opened his mouth when he saw this behind the scenes. Of course, these soldiers are all atheists.
But after being at the beach for a long time, everyone began to agree with the fishermen's belief in Mazu, and they didn't feel that it was very feudal and superstitious.
After Uncle Pan paid his respects, he seemed to have thought of something and suddenly handed the fragrance and the Holy Grail to Li Duoyu.
"You are the boss of our island. If it's not appropriate for me to ask, I'd rather ask you."
Li Duoyu struggled for a while and finally nodded. Uncle Pan was right. When you can't decide whether to rescue or not, just let the gods decide.
Li Duoyu bowed in the direction of Dandan Island, and then placed the fragrance on the bow of the boat.
Then he respectfully picked up the pair of Holy Grails, began to mutter something, and then threw the Holy Grails out.
As a result, the first throw is the Holy Grail.
Li Duoyu smiled bitterly. Some things were actually difficult to understand. He was very lucky this year. Mazu almost always agreed when he threw the Holy Grail.
Sure enough, all three throws are the Holy Grail!
After seeing this, Chen Wenchao grinned and said, "It seems that Mazu also wants us to do good things."
Liu Yun said: "Because Mazu is a very good person, and she often helps others."
After hearing this, Li Duoyu couldn't help but smile knowingly. It was just like what they said. If it weren't for the past few years, there were always pirates pretending to be fishing boats in trouble to rob them.
These fishermen, who believe in Mazu, are quite helpful. They used to help people tow fishing boats back from the open sea, and they didn't even charge much for it.
After Mazu agreed.
Li Duoyu began to formulate a rescue plan with everyone. He first boarded the transport ship, and as soon as he got on the ship.
Norio Oda bowed and apologized to him on the spot, with his entire waist and feet forming a ninety-degree angle.
"I'm really sorry for causing so much trouble to Li Sang."
Li Duoyu nodded without being very polite. If the Chinese apologized like this, everyone would definitely be very polite.
But for islanders, when the other party apologizes seriously, you'd better accept it. If you are too polite, the other party will think that you have not accepted it, and then keep apologizing.
After Li Duoyu boarded the ship, he communicated directly with the captain and the person in charge of the engine room in Japanese.
First of all, it is necessary to ensure that the diesel engine of the transport ship remains shut down during the entire rescue process. In addition, the size and shape of the propeller, as well as the draft depth, are also determined with the captain.
After doing these things.
Li Duoyu returned to the fishing boat and explained to everyone with a serious face:
"The current sea breeze is around Level 4. If the boat is moving, the propeller will definitely move with it.
So we are not trying to cut something that doesn't move, so it will be more difficult.
But let me put my words here first. This ship is here to do business with me. You have no mission, and you don't have to clear all the ropes.
You only have one life. I hope you will do your best and don't show off. Especially Chen Wenchao, do you hear this? "
Chen Wenchao scratched his head: "I heard it, Brother Yu."
"That's good." Li Duoyu said with a smile: "I think you don't want others to help you support your wife and children. Don't be impulsive when doing things."
Shitou muttered:
"But I don't have a wife or children."
Li Duoyu gave him a disgusted look: "You support other people's wives and children."
"Okay, Xiao Chao, you go and see what's going on down there first."
Chen Wenchao took off his clothes, then brought a bucket of sea water up, scooped it up with his hands, and slapped it directly on his body.
And his behavior completely shocked the islanders on the transport ship. One crew member couldn't help but ask:
"Don't these fishermen also wear diving suits? Can they be rescued?"
"Will it still be the same as before, and ultimately fail?"
"Li Sang, they will definitely succeed." Norio Oda looked at these young people in front of him and felt that even he had a sense of motivation. I don't know why, but he just felt that they were particularly outstanding and powerful.
After Chen Wenchao finished taking off his clothes, Liu Yun also started to take off his clothes. Uncle Pan didn't have many clothes on him.
But even though Chen Wenchao was very good at water, he didn't dare to jump into the sea with Li Duoyu watching.
Instead, he held a fish knife in his mouth, slowly went down into the sea, and then dived into the water.
One minute.
Two minutes.
Two minutes later, everyone on the boat was very anxious. Director Liu Zhifeng was also very anxious: "Duoyu, did the little brother just dive for too long?"
Li Duoyu glanced at his watch. After almost three steps through the triage department, a head emerged from the water.
Chen Wenchao still had the fish knife in his mouth, but there were two more brown ropes in his hand, and said excitedly: "Brother Yu, you can do it. The quality of these kelp ropes in Langqi Village seems not to be very good, and they break as soon as they are cut. ”
When Zhang Zhenping heard this, he really didn't know whether to cry or laugh, because there was indeed something wrong with his batch of kelp rope, and he was also deceived by the seller of brown rope.
But he didn't expect that because of the poor quality of his brown rope, everyone would be very happy. (End of chapter)
