Golden Fishery

Seven hundred and twenty-seven.1 Smile and Enmity (7/10)

According to the plan, the fishery owners stayed on Binghuo Island for three days before preparing to leave.

During these three days, the fishermans had suffered enough, because almost everything was lacking on the island, and if they wanted to drink a glass of cold beer, they had to sail to the opposite side of the ocean.

This is also the biggest dilemma that the island is currently facing. They need to take a ferry to go outside the island to buy daily necessities. Everything is too troublesome. The bigger trouble is on the government. In order to maintain the normal life of the town residents, the government has to arrange two ferry trips every day.

The steamer burns oil!

For the old gentlemen and old ladies in the town, these three days are not bad. They like to be lively, and the arrival of the fisherman and the media has revived a lot of vitality in the long-dead town.

The townspeople welcome the media even more. They have been chatting with reporters these days, telling them about their plight, hoping that the media can help them.

At the last farewell, Wright also pulled the reporter of the "Ottawa Maple Leaf" and said: "We actually don't want to leave here. In your opinion, this place is very broken, but for us old guys, this is hometown! This is it. The water and fish of the broken island feed us!"

"We don't need to enjoy anything. Look, we can touch the steps of heaven with our heels up. What else do old guys in their seventies and eighties want? As long as they have basic living supplies, such as bread, fresh water, and electricity, We just want to live here.”

Listening to the sad and helpless words of the old people, the fishery owners silently lowered their heads, and they couldn't help the old people on this point.

Qin Shiou can do it. It was to invite the mayor, Parry, to Farewell Island as a guest to see if he could find inspiration for improving the status quo of the town.

When they were about to board the boat, the elder Williams came running. He was carrying a hiking bag, and he waved and shouted: "Hey, guys, don't rush away, look, we got you a little gift, I don't know if you like it."

Open the backpack. Inside is a delicate dagger.

The longest of these daggers is twenty-five or six centimeters, while the shortest is only five or six centimeters. The handle of the knife is carefully wrapped with blue nylon rope and transparent fishing line, and the scabbard is made of flexible sharkskin.

The dagger Qin Shiou got was fifteen centimeters long. After he pulled it out, the blade was sharp. There are pattern-like blood grooves, but the texture is strange, like bone fragments.

"This is?" Qin Shiou guessed, "Is this made from the teeth of Greenland sharks?"

"Yes.

Sr. Williams laughed excitedly, "Do you still remember the Greenland shark head we caught from the sea?" We captured one more, and took their teeth, and polished them into daggers. "

Old Wright also laughed and said: "Maybe the texture is not very good, but this is a specialty of our town, and it is a technique learned from the Inuit. It was baked with cooked oil during the grinding process, so the toughness is actually very good. "

Serge had the longest dagger, and the Indians liked it. So the old fishermen gave him the best.

Caressing the dagger, Sergi showed a slight throbbing on his face, then gritted his teeth and said: "Old fellows, we all understand the plight of your town. If you don't ask too much, then I will prepare it when I go back. In your Invest in a casino in the town! I think that when you do business with gamblers, you can make a little money!"

Both Canada and the United States are off limits to gambling. But the government is aware of the dangers of gambling, so it stipulates that casinos cannot be set up in places where the population density exceeds a certain level, and large casinos are generally located in remote places.

For example, the world-famous Las Vegas is located in a desert. But the gamblers don't care about this, all they want is a place where they can gamble, even if the journey is as difficult as learning from the west, the gamblers can still arrive.

Qin Shiou looked at Sergi and felt good for him in his heart. In fact, these fish farm owners are not as hateful as he imagined. They are also human beings, but they have accumulated too many conflicts with traditional fish farm owners, so they are full of pertinence to him.

Buck took off his sunglasses and said, "I'm running a catering business. I'll set up a small bakery on the island later, so that everyone can eat fresh bread without traveling so far."

The owners of the fishing grounds have their own main businesses, and it is easy to help the town. For example, when Buck built a bakery, he sent a baker to bring a stove. There are plenty of houses, and the compensation is tens of thousands of yuan a year at most. It has no effect.

But they did do good, and that's admirable.

On the contrary, it is the traditional fishery owners who cannot help the town, they are actually fishermen too.

At the last moment, the assistance of Serge and others to the town eased the relationship between the two groups of fish farm owners. The reason why Andrew and others hated these holiday fish farm owners before was not only because they did not build fish farms, but also because they hated the rich. inside.

Why hate the rich? Because the traditional fishing ground owners think that these rich people are rich and unkind, and they are outright villains!

But what happened later proved that this was not the case, and there was just some misunderstanding between the two of them.

Leaving Binghuo Island, this tour is over, and I had to go to some fishing grounds on the Labrador Peninsula. But the Marine Weather Service said that the tropical cyclone was heading north and was approaching the waters of Newfoundland, so they decided to return for safety reasons.

Unprecedentedly, the relationship between the fish farm owners became harmonious, and Andrew even played stud with Buck and Chalco.

It was a reassuring sight, but Matthew hadn't organized the tour to ease their relationship.

Finally, near St. Johns, he gathered all the fish farmers in the dining room on the top of the cruise ship and said, "You see that, don't you guys? Look what happens to the local economy when the fish farms collapse. You guys After understanding this point, you should be able to understand the determination of the Ministry of Fisheries, right? If anyone ruins his fishing ground, believe me, he will regret it!"

The fish farm owners were silent. When Matthew said these words last time, some of them were unconvinced, but now they are all honest, because for some places that rely on the ocean, the collapse of the fish farm is simply terrible.

Seeing that the owners of traditional fish farms and resort fish farms are honest and honest, Matthew King smiled with satisfaction, and the visit should be a perfect end.

When the cruise ship stopped at the St. Johns Wharf, countless ships were densely docked on the wharf, and the sea was already blowing strong winds. After the tropical cyclone came to the waters of Newfoundland, it was cold and began to blow, and the hurricane was coming.

Qin Shiou took Matthew and Parry aboard the cruise ship Seagull. Halfway through the boat, the sea wind became stronger, and huge raindrops 'cracked' on the glass window, as if it were hail, and the power was astonishing. (to be continued)
