1824. Town Change (Have a nice weekend)

Blind date at night, this will be released on a regular basis... Speaking of which, I have been on a blind date since I went home years ago, and the bullet casings were killed all the way. Is it possible that you can’t find a wife in this age when you are ugly? Bless, bless or bless****

Compared with more than four years ago, the biggest change in the town is anger. At that time, most of the houses in this small town were vacant, and many townspeople left the island for big cities such as St. Johns and Toronto. Qin Shiou still remembered that when he first arrived in the town, Auerbach took him to He bought a hotel, which was the only one open in town, and was about to close down because of the lack of customers.

At that time, there were not many people walking on the streets of the town, and even if there were individuals occasionally, they were depressed and depressed.

It's different now, there are no vacant houses in the town, and the number of people has more than tripled. Because of the fact that Winnie was in power, Qin Shiou knew some statistics about the development of the town, and the town government is now strictly preventing the transfer of his hometown, otherwise the town would have been overcrowded and mixed with dragons and snakes.

The economic situation in all parts of Canada is not very good, making money is not easy. Farewell Town is relatively simple. First, because the Daqin Fishing Farm has driven the marine industry, the number of catches in the public fishing grounds has increased greatly, and fishermen can earn a lot of money by going out to sea. The second is that the tourism industry drives the economic development of the small town. If you set up a stall and shop in the town, as long as you operate it sincerely and do it well, it may not be easy to get rich, but it is easy to make money to support your family.

Along the way, the houses facing the street in the town have been converted into shops, renting outdoor products, selling fishing rods and water skis, shopping markets, souvenir shops, etc., and the economy is thriving.

The largest number are hotels, not only houses facing the street, but many houses in residential areas have also been converted into hotels. Most of these are family-style hotels with only three or four rooms. It is popular among tourists for its warm and Canadian style of living.

Walking down the street hand in hand with Cui Qi, Brandon looked in amazement at the shops on both sides. Said: "Qin, your influence is really great. You have influenced this town. Look, these houses are all decorated with your Chinese Spring Festival style. It's really amazing."

Indeed, the decoration styles of many shops in Bifare town are related to the Spring Festival, such as red lanterns hanging at the door of the shops, they pasting Spring Festival couplets, and strings of red peppers and firecrackers hanging on the windows. For example, there are many stickers of Chinese dolls and so on.

The owners of some shops are wearing cotton Tang suits with the word "Fu" printed on them. The speakers in the room are playing Chinese songs such as Happy New Year and Gong Xi Fa Cai. When they see Chinese tourists entering, they will say Happy New Year, if they don't have white faces. , It really makes people feel that this is entering Chinatown or Chinatown.

Cui Qi's beautiful face was also full of admiration, she said enviously: "Qin's popularity in this place is awesome, and there are also Winnie, look, there are many portraits of Winnie posted here!"

This is also true.

The locals who met Qin Shiou along the way would give him a kind greeting and New Year blessings. When they passed some shops, some bosses even came out to greet him. For example, Little Hughes in the grocery store deliberately showed off his Chinese which is full of mistakes when greeting.

Although Qin Daguan enjoys this kind of treatment and praise very much, he has to clarify: "These people don't dress up with the Spring Festival tradition because of me. I don't have that kind of charm. They don't please me, but please My compatriots tourists. Or rather, these cunning guys are trying their best to earn money from my compatriots."

"But to be honest, no amount of money can buy respect." Brandon smiled gently.

Wandering on the streets of the town, the tourists coming and going are all smiling. Brandon was right, the tourists stayed in town for the New Year. Some people even come here specifically for the New Year, in fact, because of the warm atmosphere of this place.

In this way, Qin Shiou didn't understand. He has lived in the city for several years. According to his observation, there are many neighbors in many neighborhoods in the city. After living in the city for several years, they will not visit each other, and they will not smile when they meet each other. But in this strange town in a strange country, the same strangers will smile when they meet on the street, and they will chat enthusiastically if they become the next table in a restaurant and bar.

At noon, Qin Shiou took Brandon and others to Papa Hixon's restaurant for dinner, Billy introduced to Shanna: "We are going to a very amazing restaurant, Papa has great winemaking skills , you will try his ice wine later, I bet you won’t like other ice wine after drinking it.”

Qin Shiou was surprised: "Xiana is pregnant, you still want her to drink?"

Billy was equally astonished and said, "Is this relevant? Drinking a little ice wine is good for the body and mind, so why not? Shanna and I usually have a little each when we have dinner at home .”

Qin Shiou shrugged. Different environments have different customs. It seems that he was too harsh on the pregnant Weini, and he should compensate her after she gave birth.

Dad's restaurant was redecorated last fall. There used to be only one hall, but now it is divided into four small rooms. In addition to the VIP room, which is the newly opened garden restaurant, there are five rooms in total.

Among them, the four small rooms will be named as the Hall of Guzhi from Other Lands, the Hall of Inscriptions on the Gold List, the Hall of Flowers and Candles in the Bridal Room, and the Hall of Long Drought and Rain. They are named after the four great joys in life in Chinese culture, which has a special taste. And the name of Garden Restaurant is Blooming Wealth, which fits the occasion.

When Qin Shiou and others arrived, it was meal time. The old man was very busy. The four rooms were full, and only the garden restaurant was empty, because the use of the garden restaurant required conditions, and there were not many people who could meet these conditions. Of course, Qin Shiou If you meet the conditions, you can enter at will.

The garden was temporarily closed with glass. The old man saw him coming and washed his hands and came to entertain them. When introducing the garden, he said proudly: "This is my idea. I use glass to keep warm in winter, and remove the glass in summer to lift it up." How about a shelf, let vines and flowers climb up to shade it? Doesn’t it feel good?”

Qin Shiou looked at the vibrant flowers around him and smiled, "Of course, being in a place of flowers always makes people happy."

Little Black said: "Father, but after you reorganized the restaurant in this way, it seems that the number of guests that can be accommodated has decreased."

The old man smiled and said: "No way, young man, I have to obey. There are too many customers and I am too busy to enjoy cooking and life. What's the point of opening a restaurant?"

"You can hire a waiter to help you share the pressure." Little Blake said as a matter of course.

Qin Shiou shook his head and said: "No, no, you don't understand Dad's philosophy of life. Do you think Dad is still short of money? He has enough money, and the reason why he still opens a restaurant is because he enjoys the feeling of being in control of everything , and once he hires someone, he won’t be able to enjoy such a feeling.”

Xixon laughed loudly, patted Qin Shiou on the shoulder and said, "Qin is right, he is such a good young man who knows people's thoughts."

Qin Shiou also laughed, but felt helpless: the old man is old, his memory is failing, these words are actually what he told himself. (To be continued.)
