After breakfast, Qin Shiou said to Shaq: "Take someone to search along the coastline. Now this season is very prone to jellyfish proliferation. Damn it, I don't want to cause some water problems because of this."

The fishermen are all old mariners. They know more about jellyfish than Qin Shiou, and they know which ones can be eaten and which ones should be discarded.

The kids are out of school today, the anniversary of the referendum on Newfoundland's annexation to Canada, and a day off.

On this date in 1948, a referendum was held in Newfoundland to annex Canada. On March 31, 1949, Newfoundland officially joined Canada and became Canada's tenth province.

For Newfoundland, this is not a very good memory, because the aborigines have a proud sense of independence. At the beginning of the last century, it was once an independent country as the first dominion after the British Empire lost its American colonies.

But because it was still a dominion of the British Empire at that time, during the First World War, Newfoundland borrowed heavily to finance the war for Britain, and therefore had a fiscal deficit in the 1920s. In the 1930s, its accumulated debt exceeded national income. three times.

In 1933, major Canadian banks threatened to suspend lending to Newfoundland due to concerns about its creditworthiness. Newfoundland turned to London for help. So the British government sent a royal commission of inquiry to look into the issue.

The British are really dark and dirty in their politics. After their investigation, they unilaterally proposed a solution to dissolve the Newfoundland Parliament. and transferred all government powers to a committee of six, three from Newfoundland and three from Great Britain.

There is no doubt that this plan is actually to let Newfoundland give up national sovereignty and return to colonial status.

Of course, although they were called independent countries before, they were also dominions of Canada. Therefore, the Newfoundland Parliament finally accepted the request and dissolved the democratic government.

This situation remained until after World War II. Greatly weakened Britain really had no money to budget for Newfoundland, and proposed to terminate the dispatch of the government.

But at that time, Newfoundland also participated in World War II, and it also suffered heavy losses, and the construction of the territory encountered bottlenecks. In desperation, he had to turn to Canada for help. After getting the latter's promise to bear its debts, it became the tenth province in Canada through citizen self-vote.

Kids don't care about that, actually Canadians don't care where they are from,

There are too many immigrants and too many consciousnesses. For example, Mexicans and Japanese are relatively conservative countries. Immigrant families do not allow their children to learn English and insist on speaking Mexican and Japanese. How can children from such families have a sense of belonging to Canada?

Shirley and the others don't even care whether they are Newfoundlanders or Canadians. What they care about is another day of play time.

But after playing for a while during the day, the children ran back angrily and found a long thin wooden stick. There is something to fiddle with with a broom strapped to it.

The tiger and the leopard watched together, and the children were discussing. They barked twice from time to time, as if they were also participating in the discussion.

Qin Shiou asked curiously, "What are you doing?"

Gordon said without raising his head, "Get rid of those cicadas."

Powell explained: "We wanted to play in the hut, but it was too noisy outside, and those insects were screaming in the trees. It was so annoying that we decided to get rid of them."

really. With the outbreak of cicadas in seventeen years, the town is now surrounded by the sound of cicadas, and the endless cries of cicadas can be heard in the villa.

Qin Shiou thought for a while and said, "How about this? I'll teach you about cicadas. This is a game we played when we were young. We could eat cicadas when we were young. Forget it now, but it's not bad for feeding chickens. "

He went back to the house to find some flour, first kneaded it into a dough, and then put it in water to grab and wash it to wash off the starch, and what was left in the end was sticky gluten.

Qin Shiou tried the stickiness, and felt that it was big enough, so he stuck a piece of gluten on the long wooden pole, handed it to Powell and said, "You, Little Shaq, and Little Sea Monster take turns using this. Do you see this head? Take your time." , use it to post cicadas, understand?"

Then, he went to make a small net out of a fishing net, propped it up with iron bars, combined it with another long wooden pole, and told Shirley and Gordon: "This is for netting. Just put them in the net."

After getting the tools ready, Qin Shiou led a group of children and set off in a mighty way. The tiger, leopard and pineapple followed up bouncingly. Injected with clean water, it quickly climbed in to escape the heat.

There were countless cicadas on the two big sugar maple trees. Anyway, after approaching, it was like listening to a magic spell, and the "squeaking" sound was crazy. No wonder the children couldn't stand it.

And there are not only cicadas on the tree, but also many other insects. No wonder the doormat said that it was accompanied by the sound of eating leaves. Indeed, in the cicada's "squeak", there is also the sound of "rustle" eating leaves , There are all kinds of bug droppings under the tree, it's disgusting.

This was all caused by Cicada, so it's not too much for the doormats to push the responsibility on Cicada. Because when cicadas suck the sap, they will continue to excrete urine, and they will not fully absorb the sap, resulting in the nutrients contained in the sap in the urine.

These nutrients will attract all kinds of thirsty ants, moths, beetles, etc. They not only absorb the urine of cicadas, but also eat the leaves, so the more cicadas are on the tree, the more branches and leaves will be lost later. .

The owner of the sugar maple tree is Xiao Ming, the squirrel, and the little guy seems to be troubled by cicadas, squatting on a tree branch high up and sulking, his cheeks puffed up and down, as if he was cursing someone.

Qin Shiou whistled to Xiao Ming, then raised the thin wooden stick, found a cicada called Zhenghuan, slowly leaned the wooden stick against it, and at the same time introduced in a low voice: "Look, we have to be careful, get closer, It can't be made aware of..."

The children watched nervously, nodded vigorously, and Qin Shiou was deeply moved by their concentrated appearance: If these little bastards can have this kind of motivation to study, they will definitely be the stuff of Memorial University of Newfoundland in the future.

"The last push must be steady and firm. After we slowly lean up, look at how hard I am!" Qin Shiou flicked his wrist for the last time, and the gluten precisely stuck to the wings of Zhizhi. Zhizhi screamed in fright, and pouted his butt Feces sprayed down.

Qin Shiou hasn't been cicada for a long time, and he has forgotten about this trouble, but he can't avoid it now, surrounded by children, so he can only suffer from it.

The children were also drenched, and Gordon asked stupidly: "What is this? Why is it raining suddenly?"

Shirley and the others had bad expressions on their faces. In order to maintain his majesty, Qin Shiou had an idea and said, "This is tree sap! This is the tree sap that Cicada is eating!" (To be continued)
