Golden Fishing Village

In ancient times, every household used wooden barrels to fill water. These wooden barrels were made of wooden boards and iron hoops. Bamboo boards were rarely used because bamboo boards are easily affected by thermal expansion and contraction, and will cause problems if they are exposed to wind and sun for a long time. .

There is a bamboo bucket in Hongyang. This kind of bucket is actually a wooden bucket. It is made by hooping a wooden board first, and then attaching a bamboo board to the outside. This was a bucket used by landlords and wealthy people in the past. The bamboo board has colorful paintings. , carvings and other decorations look better and more luxurious.

A layer of bamboo slices is pasted on the outside of a wooden barrel to form a bamboo bucket. This sounds simple, but it is not easy to do because the bamboo slices and the wooden barrel must be closely connected. This is a technology.

Since bamboo buckets used to be reserved for wealthy families, how could an ordinary family be willing to waste money on sticking a layer of bamboo on the bucket? In ancient times when productivity was low, luxury and luxury were out of reach for the common people.

Therefore, the manufacturing technology of bamboo buckets was once discontinued.

Ao Zhiman was very interested in these handicrafts. When he was young, he made a living in Hongyang. Later, he learned this technique from an old cooper. He was the only person in the village who could make bamboo buckets. Today, this technique is passed down to the public. In the hands of grandson.

In the morning, Ao Jinfu came to Ao Muyang's house with some wood chips and bamboo chips. He also carried a box on his back. It was a very modern plastic box. When opened, it contained saws, planes, chisels, files, sandpaper, and various tools. Plant rulers, hammers, hatchets, etc.

Looking at these tools arranged in an orderly manner, Ao Muyang asked: "Oh, Jin Fu, is this the tool box your grandfather bought you?"

Ao Jinfu shook his head and said, "No."

"Who bought that?"

"Uncle Liao."

"You said it all, who is Uncle Liao?"

"A tourist likes handicrafts. My father gave him a few things, so he bought me this toolbox." Ao Jinfu was forced to say a few more words.

Ao Muyang nodded and said: "Then this person is really good. This box is not cheap."

Jiang Xue set up the video recorder and asked Ao Jinfu with a smile, "Brother, how long will it take you to do this?"

Ao Jinfu sniffed and muttered for a while, then Xu Nan squatted in front of him and asked, "Speak louder."

As a result, the boy's head bowed even further.

Xu Nan looked at Ao Muyang for help, and Ao Muyang pointed at her collar and said, "Ahem, it's a little exposed."

As a result, the big girl from Kyoto looked down and said in shock: "Did you time travel from a thousand years ago? It's just a little bit of cleavage exposed. What kind of exposure is this? Is it okay to wear low-cut clothes like this?"

Ao Jinfu's face immediately turned red after hearing this, and he almost put his head between his legs.

After Xu Nan stood up, he became more normal. He clasped his hands and counted: "It takes half an hour to polish, one and a half hours to hoop the barrel, one and a half hours to carve the bamboo, and more than an hour to fit it together. Including the follow-up work, the total is six more than hours.”

Jiang Xue asked in surprise: "It takes six hours to make a bucket?"

Ao Jinfu nodded silently.

Jiang Xue breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Now I know why many traditional handicrafts have been discontinued. Let's not talk about making money. Let's just say that the patience and determination required to make a bucket are not something ordinary people can have."

The handiwork in the village was even more boring, and Ao Jinfu started to get busy. The three of them were watching with great interest, but after a while they started to get together to fight the landlord.

In this way, I saw a young man sitting silently on a stool polishing wood and bamboo chips. Next to him were three adults shouting: "Robbing the landlord!" "I'll rob!" "Double it!" "Blow up!"

At three o'clock in the morning, the three of them were tired of playing cards. The young man was still working silently on a few wooden boards and bamboo pieces.

Now that the wooden boards and bamboo pieces have been polished, the boy is hooping the barrel, but in the process, the wooden boards still need to be polished continuously.

He cut and polished the top and bottom of the board. When the two boards were put together, they looked tight and seamless. However, the boy shook his head and took off the board again to polish it.

Jiang Xue asked: "Brother, isn't this enough? How do you have to polish them?"

The boy didn't respond, didn't even react, and stared intently at the board, like a robot.

Jiang Xue stuck out her tongue and said with a smile: "Brother, I'm a little cold."

Ao Muyang said: "He's not cold, he didn't hear what you said."

He went over and snapped his fingers in front of Ao Jinfu. Ao Jinfu shivered and then came to his senses in a daze: "Hey, why are you here?"

"You are at my house." Lao Ao broke into a cold sweat.

Ao Jinfu patted his head and said suddenly: "Oh, yes, I forgot."

Ao Muyang asked: "Isn't this wood chip good enough to polish?"

Ao Jinfu shook his head and said: "No, the gap is wrong."

"What's the size of the gap?" Jiang Xue asked.

"Just enough to let a ray of sunlight shine through, just enough to see a ray of blue sky." Ao Jinfu put the two wooden boards together and faced the sky, and then a ray of light shone through the two wooden boards.

Xu Nan asked: "Has this been filmed? Brother Wenqing's answer."

Ao Muyang stretched and said, "You guys go ahead and take pictures. I don't have the patience to wait anymore. I have to go out for a walk."

Xu Nan waved to him: "You have to learn from this little master. This little master's patience and concentration are really scary. If he was born in Kyoto, he would definitely achieve a great career!"

"He can achieve a great career even in a fishing village. As long as he has exposure, he will become a popular man in the handicraft industry. I bet that he will be a valuable asset to the village in the future." Jiang Xue said firmly.

Ao Muyang agreed with this. Ao Jinfu was interested in craftsmanship and had talent. With Ao Zhiman's teaching, it was certain that he would surpass his teacher.

Talents should be cherished. Before leaving, Ao Muyang said to Ao Jinfu: "These two sisters will shoot videos for you in the future. The village will reward you 200 yuan for each video."

Ao Jinfu didn't hear what he said and began to concentrate on drilling holes in the wooden board. In order to increase the durability of the bucket, the wooden boards had to be reinforced with mortise and tenon joints.

The ebb tide lasted more than one day. Yesterday, the tide fell the most, and it will still ebb today. After the high tide at night, seafood reappeared on the beach during the low tide during the day.

Of course, the amount of seafood was much less than yesterday.

The Big Dragon Head went out to sea during the high tide. Today, it will return. Ao Muyang strolled to the dock to wait for the fishing boat to return.

He thought it was nothing, but around noon he got a call from the wharf market, saying that the hepatitis A virus was detected in the hairy clams in the market. Leaders from the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, Food Inspection Bureau, and Fisheries Bureau were all dispatched, and all the bosses engaged in aquatic products were required to be in place to cooperate with the inspection!
