Kia oti te hanga o te mīhini whatu, kua oti te nuinga o ngā mahi taumaha. Kua oti te hanga o te anga, kua tāutahia ngā pūnaha, ā, kua oti katoa ngā whakamātautau. Kua rite mō te whakamahi mīhini.
Engari kotahi tonu te mea whakamutunga e tino aro nui ana mātou ki ai: ko te peita.
Kāore e ngawari te huihuinga. He mīhini nunui, he mīhini taumaha ēnei —ngā mīhini whatu porowhitamengā mīhini rakaI te wā e hangaia ana, ka hikitia, ka nekehia, ka whakatikatikaina, ka whakauruhia hoki ngā wāhanga. Ka nekehia ngā anga e ngā forklifts huri noa i te awheawhe, kei ngā wāhi katoa ngā taputapu, ā, kei te piki haere ngā kaimahi ki roto, ki te taha hoki o te hanganga i ia rā, i ia rā. Ahakoa te tupato o te katoa, ka puta tonu mai ngā karawarawa me ngā tohu iti. He wāhanga noa iho tēnei o te hanga taputapu nui i roto i tētahi wheketere tūturu.
Kāore mātou e kī ana kāore aua tohu i te tīariari.
Tērā pea ētahi wheketere e kore e aro ki ngā hapa iti, engari kāore mātou e aro. I mua i te wehenga atu o ia mīhini i tō mātou awheawhe, ka tirohia e tā mātou tīma he tirotiro taipitopito whakamutunga. Ka aro nui mātou ki ngā kokonga, ki ngā taha, ki ngā pūwāhi hiki, me ngā wāhi i honoa ai ngā wāhanga — arā, ngā wāhi i rakurakuhia, i mirimirihia rānei i te wā o te huihuinga.
Ki te kitea he pakaru ki te peita, ahakoa he iti noa, ka whakatikatikahia, ka peitahia rānei aua wāhanga kia tika.
Nā te mea kāore te kaihoko e hoko ana i tētahi mīhini "kua tata oti". Engari e hoko ana rātou i te mīhini katoa.
He mea nui ngā whakaaro tuatahi. Ina tuwhera ngā tatau o te ipu i te wheketere o te kiritaki — i ētahi wā i muri i te haerenga mano kiromita mai i Quanzhou — ko te mea tuatahi ka kitea e rātou ko te mīhini tonu. Ka hangaia tonutia te whakapono ki te āhua ma, rite tonu, me te oti pai. E whakaatu ana i te tiaki i roto i ia taahiraa.
Mō te tiakitanga mō te wā roa anō hoki. Haunga te āhua, ka taea e aua wāhi iti nei te noho hei wāhi raruraru ā muri ake nei, inā koa i ngā taiao wheketere wera, makuku. Ka taea e te karawarawa iti nei te huri hei waikura ā muri ake nei. Mā te whakatika ināianei ka ārai i te mamae o te ngākau mō te kiritaki ā muri ake nei.
Ae, he nui ake te wā me te kaha e hiahiatia ana mō te peita anō. Kotahi anō te tirotiro, kotahi anō te tukanga i mua i te tākai. Engari i muri i ngā wiki katoa e hanga ana, e whakamātautau ana i ia mīhini, kāore e tika ana kia tapahia ngā kokonga i te mutunga.
Ko tā mātou e hiahia ana kia tae mai ngā mīhini katoa a Morton me te āhua e tika ana — he ma, he oti, ā, kua rite mō te tīmata mahi whakaputa.
I ētahi wā, mā ngā kōrero iti rawa e kōrero te pūrākau nui mō te hanganga o tētahi mea.
