Chapter 371: America's Second Largest Chinatown (Page 1/1)

Qin Tian was born in Vancouver, and then spent most of his time in Vancouver, in Qin Tian's words, he knows how many trash cans there are in Vancouver.

Of course, Qin Tian's words were exaggerated, but Qin Tian did know Vancouver very well, which was why Xu Qing asked Qin Tian to pick up the plane.

Before coming, Xu Qing thought about how to travel after coming to Vancouver, whether to find a tour guide or travel according to the map by himself.

Later, Xu Qing remembered that Carney Group had a branch in Vancouver, so he asked people to contact the people in the branch, who was willing to be Xu Qing's tour guide.

After some screening, Qin Tian was selected, and Qin Tian was selected as a deputy manager of the marketing department of the branch.

The person who can be the deputy manager of the marketing department must be very active, with communication skills and eloquence, plus Qin Tian is a native of Vancouver Chinese, it is very suitable to be a tour guide.

After getting into the car, Xu Qing asked Qin Tian to introduce the tourist attractions in Vancouver, and sure enough, Qin Tian showed the reason why he would be the deputy manager of the marketing department.

The voice is clear, smooth and non-stop to introduce Xu Qing and others to the attractions of Vancouver, which is too good to say.

However, Xu Qing and the others did not dislike Qin Tian's way of speaking, because when Qin Tian introduced the scenic spot, he would say some strange things about the scenic spot, and Xu Qing and the others who listened to it were interested.

Xu Qing even wondered if Qin Tian had ever been a tour guide.

In addition to introducing the famous attractions in Vancouver, Qin Tian also said some places that are not very famous, but very interesting.

The Seagull will stay in Vancouver for 2 days, and after listening to Qin Tian's introduction, Xu Qing decided to spend one day visiting famous attractions and one day visiting those places that are not famous but interesting.

Qin Tian first took Xu Qing and his party to the hotel, put down their luggage, and rested for a while, Xu Qing and the others followed Qin Tian to Chinatown.

Vancouver's Chinatown is the second largest Chinatown in the Americas after San Francisco, and even though the number of Chinese in Toronto later surpassed that of Vancouver, the area of Chinatown did not surpass.

The majority of Vancouver's Chinatown population is Hong Kong Islanders, because Canada is a Commonwealth country, and Hong Kong Island was administered by the United Kingdom before the handover.

Therefore, many Hong Kong Islanders immigrate to Canada, and the British government is also happy to see such a situation, as for why they are willing, everyone should understand.

In addition to the people of Hong Kong Island, there are also many people from eastern Guangdong Province, whether in his previous life or now, Xu Qing is from eastern Guangdong Province.

Xu Qing looked at the history of Chinese immigrants and found that no matter which country the Chinese immigrants were, there were always many people from eastern Guangdong Province.

It's not that people in eastern Guangdong Province like to immigrate, but that in ancient times, eastern Guangdong Province was a relatively remote place in China, and usually people in the north would flee to the south if they wanted to flee due to war.

Because the southern region is remote and relatively backward, when there is a war in the north, it is basically impossible for the south to have a war, and the places where wars often occur in ancient China are mainly in the north and the south of the Yangtze River.

And when there is a war in the south, there is a very high probability that there will be a war in the north, so where do the people in the south, especially those near the sea, flee the war?

Flee to Nanyang or beyond, and then these people take root in Nanyang, and some of them will emigrate to other countries, and slowly, you will find that there are immigrants from Guangdong Province everywhere.

When Xu Qing came to Chinatown, she basically heard Cantonese, and Hong Kong Islanders also spoke Cantonese.

In ancient times, Hong Kong Island was under the administration of Eastern Guangdong Province, so the two are similar in many aspects such as living habits and language.

If you don't distinguish carefully, you can't tell which ones are immigrants from eastern Guangdong Province and which ones are immigrants from Hong Kong Island.

Qin Tian's ancestral home is also in Eastern Guangdong Province, he also speaks Cantonese, and he was born and raised in Chinatown.

After coming to Chinatown, Qin Tian met an acquaintance, who was also a middle-aged Chinese, and the two sides communicated in Cantonese.

The middle-aged Chinese looked at Xu Qing and the others with doubtful eyes, and then asked Qin Tian in Cantonese if Xu Qing was the Xu Qing of the Chinese.

Xu Qing didn't wait for Qin Tian to answer, so he said in Cantonese: "I am Xu Qing." ”

The middle-aged Chinese was taken aback at first, and then looked at Xu Qing excitedly: "Are you really Xu Qing?"

Qin Tian pushed the middle-aged Chinese: "You don't know that I work in Carney Company, and you don't know the big boss of Carney Company." ”

(In order to make it clear to readers, all Cantonese dialogues are automatically translated into Mandarin)

The middle-aged Chinese sneered: "Ah Tian, of course I know that you work in Carney, but I can't believe that Mr. Xu will appear in Chinatown." ”

"Don't talk nonsense, I'm going to take my boss to dinner, and we'll talk later when I have time. Qin Tian said.

"Oh, well, I won't bother you. The middle-aged Chinese said a little reluctantly.

Xu Qing looked at the expression of the middle-aged Chinese, and he really wanted to get to know him, Xu Qing thought for a while and said, "Qin Tian, since this gentleman is your friend, then it's good for us to have a meal together." ”

"This gentleman shouldn't have eaten yet, right?" Xu Qing looked at the middle-aged Chinese again.

The middle-aged Chinese hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Mr. Xu, don't call me sir, I can't afford it, just call me Liu Feng." ”

"Boss, it's not good. "Qin Tiandao.

Of course, Qin Tian was willing for Liu Feng to eat with them, but Qin Tian was afraid that Xu Qing would let Liu Feng eat together in order to take care of his face, and Qin Tian felt that this was not good.

Xu Qing smiled: "Everyone is Chinese, what's wrong with having a meal together." ”

The group continued to walk towards Chinatown, Liu Feng seemed to know that Sophia and Carlyle could not understand Cantonese, and they all used English in the later conversations with Xu Qing.

After Xu Qing changed Liu Feng to eat together, Liu Feng became very restrained, basically Xu Qing was asking him, and Liu Feng was answering.

Liu Feng is the owner of a grocery store in Chinatown, and like Qin Tian, he was born and raised in Vancouver's Chinatown, and the grocery store was passed down from his father.

Xu Qing asked some about Liu Feng's Chinatown, and Liu Feng knew better than Qin Tian.

Qin Tian no longer lives in Chinatown, and only occasionally comes back to take a look, Liu Feng has always lived in Chinatown, and basically knows what is happening.

Xu Qing wanted to learn about the history and current development of Chinatown.

The reason why I want to know about this is because Xu Qing's father wants to write a book about the history and current development of Chinese people around the world.

After his parents didn't manage the Carney Group, they did what they really wanted to do, and my dad loved to write and had already written a book, which was about to be published.

My mother likes to make food, and occasionally goes to Xujia Restaurant to work part-time as some chefs, and my mother has a chef certificate.

Dad has been fed a few laps of Mom's food, and Mom is planning to write a cookbook.

Xu Qing is very supportive of her parents' hobbies, and this time she came to Chinatown to learn about Chinatown in person and see if she could get some information that could help her father.
