The old things I repaired have become fine

Chapter 78 The typhoon is coming, hurry up, or the topic will be blown away! (Subscribe)
Eating and drinking lavishly in the village = the tutor is worried, afraid that he might eat himself to death in a minute; his fellow students look at him with aversion, thinking that he might have mutated.

Pretending to have a normal appetite in the village = the whole person is starving to death, every cell is clamoring to digest itself. The stomach growls after taking one step, and the limbs become weak after taking two steps, and the head is dizzy.

Sometimes, the new abilities given by copper pieces are not a particularly good thing, especially when given at the wrong time...

Shen Le missed Tianxianglou more than ever before. If only he were at home, he could go to Tianxianglou for his three meals a day, and eat whatever he wanted from the proprietress, with its mutton and rice that were high in calories!

Could he ask the boss lady to send some food over...

At Tianxianglou, is there any vacuum packaging or similar method to deliver the food so that he can eat it remotely?!

Shen Le tried hard to suppress this thought, restrained his appetite, and experimented again and again. Soon, he found a way to prevent his stomach from working at full capacity:

——There is no other reason, just use your internal energy a few more times.

Do the exercises three times a day, and you will feel more refreshed, fatigue will disappear more easily, and your steps will be lighter when climbing mountains.
After four cycles, you will feel hungry when you come out. You will have to eat at least one more bowl of rice and half a bowl of meat dishes, and they have to be hard dishes like braised pork or braised beef.

After six cycles, I'm sorry, you have to eat as much as you want.

Alas, this is probably what is written in fairy tales. If the surrounding spiritual energy is insufficient, it must be supplemented by elixirs. If the elixir is insufficient, it must be supplemented by spiritual rice, spiritual meat, etc.?

In the small village, he ate all kinds of earthly food, and his spiritual energy was probably almost zero. If he wanted to replenish his energy, he would have to eat a lot, right?

Shen Le made some calculations and felt that his idea made sense. Of course, after six cycles, the progress of the exercise would be faster, and the speed of opening up the next meridian would probably be faster...

One percent of the length of the meridian between the two acupoints?

In short, it was not a particularly cost-effective efficiency, and it was not worth the cost of eating up all the meals for the day and attracting the attention of his mentor and fellow students.

If you want to eat something special, you should wait until you get home. The boss lady has a lot of delicious food, free to eat!

After adjusting his digestion rhythm, Shen Le breathed a sigh of relief and devoted himself to the survey of the old house. Measuring, sampling, testing, drawing...

It took another three days to complete the survey. Just when we were about to pack up and leave, a bolt from the blue struck us:
"What? Can't leave?"

"Yes, the typhoon is coming soon." The teacher looked worried. He turned his head to look at the mansion in front of him, and then looked at the distant horizon:

"Who knows what will happen to this mansion after a typhoon passes by...it might even be blown down..."

If it is blown down, or even if it only suffers relatively serious damage and becomes a dangerous building, then the protection value of the house may drop sharply.

All their previous work was in vain!

"That's not the case, mentor." Shen Lexu supported him and tried to comfort him:

"This house was built in the Ming Dynasty. It has been hit by typhoons at least 50 times, if not 100 times. It has survived all these years, so it won't collapse now."

"There have been people living here before, and it has been under repair..." The instructor's thick brows were tightly furrowed.

A house that is occupied is very different from a house that is not occupied, especially a wooden house. If no one lives in it for ten years, the wood will expand and shrink, rot, and be eaten by termites, which can turn a house of average quality into a dangerous building.

Although the construction quality of this mansion is quite high and the wood used is all excellent, it cannot withstand being uninhabited for ten years!
"That……"

Several students stood in a circle around their instructor, winking at each other. From their expressions, Shen Le could almost read a drama:
[If this house is blown down, will our topic be lost? ]

[What about my thesis? It’s gone too? If my thesis is gone, my scholarship for this year will also be gone! ]

[Don’t think about the scholarship, think about how the tutor will finish the project! Even if the house collapses due to force majeure and the project cannot be completed, it will affect the application of the project next year! ]

[No, that's too terrible. Without a project, there is no funding, without funding, there is no research, and there is no paper for us...]

Shen Le was already an outsider anyway, and would lose at most one month's subsidy, so he was the calmest. Among the others, it seemed that only the tutor was genuinely worried about the house...

The instructor paid no attention to the students' quarrel. He stared at the mansion, his lips pressed into a straight line, his eyes gleaming, and he was clearly using his brain to its full potential.

He thought for a long time, his chest heaving a few times, and suddenly his brows relaxed, and he raised his voice:

"Hurry up! We don't have much time! Before the typhoon arrives, reinforce it as much as possible! I'll calculate the reinforcement points, and you do the work!"

"coming!"

"coming!"

The students responded loudly.

With just one phone call from the instructor, large rolls of fiber composite materials were delivered to the top of the mountain. During the delivery process, the instructor's requirements were like a rainstorm, hitting the students' heads:
"Zhuang Boyang! You are the best at math, come and help me with the calculations! Take a look at this article, "Common Damage Forms and Repair Plans for Wooden Beams in Ancient Buildings - Taking Zhejiang Ancient Residences as an Example"!"

"No problem, mentor!"

"Wang Jiaxiong! Take a quick look at this article, "Experimental Study on the Repair and Reinforcement of Locally Damaged Wood Columns with CFRP," and this article, "Calculation of Axial Compression Performance of FRP Transversely Reinforced Wood Columns," and then verify the data I gave you!"

"Okay, mentor!

"Lu Weifeng, there are relatively few papers on roof tile reinforcement. Find one yourself!"

"Teacher, I'll start working right away!"

"Shen Le, you are responsible for the damaged beams! Paste the fiber material in the tensile zone of the beam. For details on how to paste it, please refer to this article "Research on the Performance of CFRP Material Reinforced Wood Beams". I will give you one hour to read it!" Shen Le clicked on the paper and screamed. However, under the death gaze of his mentor, he could only roll up his sleeves and work hard.

The tutor was simply inhuman. The paper he threw at him was a master's thesis with 81 pages of text, to words, and a large number of calculation formulas.

That’s not all. This paper only considers earthquake-resistant reinforcement and only considers the situation of unidirectional earthquake action. It can be said that it is extremely simple.

They now need to resist typhoons and consider wind vibration stress. One is pressing down from above, and the other is pushing in from the outside, shaking sideways, which are completely different...

One hour? Even if you give me 72 hours, I still can’t finish watching and counting them!!!
By the way, how does a typhoon blow? I mean, when it blows to this house, is it southeast wind, east wind, or is it a rotating wind?
Looking left and right, I saw my senior and junior classmates were also urgently reading their papers, each of them holding a laptop with a pale face.

However, the speed of reading papers by all the people combined could not be as fast as that of the tutor. Shen Le was still struggling with his paper. As the fiber composite material was delivered, the tutor's task was quickly issued:
"Zhuang Boyang! You are responsible for all the mortise and tenon joints! For the joints with smaller damage, glue them along the direction of the architrave, and glue them at a 45° angle along the joints!"

"Wang Jiaxiong, you are responsible for reinforcing the wooden columns! For wooden columns that are compressed along the axis, sticking fiber cloth longitudinally can significantly improve the deformation performance!"

"Lu Weifeng, you are responsible for reinforcing the roof tiles! Use copper wire to tie the roof tiles, tie them with steel wire ropes, and then buckle them with steel mesh!"

"Shen Le, have you finished reading your paper?"

"Hurry up and get to work! The typhoon will arrive in 72 hours. In these 72 hours, we must finish everything we need to do!"

In an instant, the mansion turned into a construction site with work in full swing.

In fact, Shen Le had just calculated half of it, but his instructor was pushing him hard, so he had to just give it a general idea and grasp the spirit.

Then, using double-layer reinforcement and U-shaped pasting, the fiber composite material is pasted on each wooden beam one by one...

"Beware!"

"Be careful!"

Shen Le stood on a tall wooden frame, brushed a layer of adhesive on the wooden beam, and then tore off a long roll of fiber composite material and pasted it on top. After pasting one layer, he climbed down and moved the wooden frame...

"Teacher, don't move! Get out of the way! I can handle this rack by myself!"

It was too late. The instructor had already rushed to the other side of the wooden frame, grabbed the wooden frame with both hands, and lifted the frame up with a sudden force. Shen Le quickly crawled through the wooden frame and held the instructor's palm:

"Let go! Let go! - I can do it myself!"

After two rounds of wrestling, the 63-year-old instructor was no match for the -something Shen Le, so he had no choice but to let go. Shen Le got under the wooden frame, lifted his shoulders, and supported himself with both hands:
"rise--"

Hey, I actually carried it up!

I remember I didn’t have this much strength before!
Could it be the feedback from the copper sheet?

Shen Le carried the wooden frame and took small steps forward. One step, two steps, then stopped and put the wooden frame away. He took a breath and continued to work...

Alas, this damn mountain area, this damn typhoon. If it weren't for the typhoon, they would have been able to hire workers even if they needed to urgently reinforce the ancient buildings!

It is not like now, people outside are unwilling to go into the mountains, fearing that they will be blocked by typhoons, and even more afraid of encountering typhoons on the way;
In the mountains, these old, weak, sick and disabled people in the mountains, do you dare to hire them?

Even if you hire someone, if someone falls and gets injured, since there is no company and no work injury insurance, you will have to pay for it all yourself, and you will be killed by it!
There was no other way, so these graduate students had to work hard. Some climbed high, some crawled on the floor, and they were busy and happy:
"Teacher, don't worry, you don't have to look at me! I can handle it!"

The tutor squinted his eyes and looked at Shen Le's work for a long time, nodded, and went back to his own work.

Considering the old man's age, they didn't dare to let him climb up and down, so a group of fellow apprentices worked together to assign him the safest job:
Reinforce wooden floors and walls!

Although there is no need to climb high, the workload is heavy. One-way slabs require fiber composite materials and are glued to the bottom of the slab along the short span direction. Two-way slabs are more troublesome because they need to be glued in both directions!

The old man lay on the ground, crawling from east to west, and then from west to east, standing up from time to time to pound his waist. After working for a long time, he needed two students to carry him when he had to eat.

They said the typhoon would arrive in 72 hours, but in fact, they only had 48 hours. If they delayed until the third day, they would have to climb over the mountains and ridges to work in the morning, and walk down the mountain in the dark under the typhoon at night...

That's too dangerous!
Early in the morning of the third day, before Shen Le opened his eyes, he heard the whistling of the wind outside and the sound of branches and leaves breaking:
"Fortunately we finished all the work yesterday."

"Yes, everything that needs to be reinforced has been reinforced."

"Just lie down in your room for the day..."

"Lie down? Forget it! What about the work we did yesterday? Do you have any records? Sort it out quickly, and go back after the typhoon passes to take a look and measure it. It will be another good paper!"

Graduate students and doctoral students got up wailing with back pain and started doing writing work.

I was typing on the computer when everything went black:
"What happened? The power went out again?!"

Shen Le shuddered and reached for the small oil lamp. Could it be this kid again?
No way?
【It's not me! 】

【I don't! 】

[The power outage was not caused by me! ]
