Chapter 31: Perth City Odd Fish Conference
"What do you think?" Su Chen shook his wine glass against the sun, the clear crystal glass, reflecting the soft sunlight, bloomed transparent buds. Taking a sip gently, with a hint of sweetness in the sourness, the fragrance of the grapes stimulated Su Chen's taste buds, and he exclaimed: "Mellow and thick, dripping intoxicating, good wine." ”
As a well-known travel experiencer, Su Chen is also fortunate to be invited by major hotels and bars to taste, and he also knows a little about the Taoism, and the glass of wine in his hand is definitely one of the best he has tasted.
Hill smiled and briefly clinked glasses with Su Chen, and introduced: "This is the dry red wine of Flex Winery, produced in the Margaret River in Western Australia, one of the top ten red wine brands in Australia. ”
"It lives up to its name. ”
In the warm winter sun, the sparkling yacht on the sea is heading towards the shore, and the three people at the stern of the boat are holding wine glasses, tasting wine, and talking about fun, so there is a wine to talk about heroes, and now there is wine tasting to promote friendship.
After the ship docked, Allen, who had been waiting for a long time, rushed up and gave Su Chen a bear hug, Su Chen disappeared into the sea for a few days, Alan was worried all the time, this is his benefactor.
patting the big man on the back of the tiger, Su Chen comforted: "Okay, don't worry, aren't I coming back?"
Alan wiped away his unwarranted tears and cried: "It's good to come back, it's about to be paid." ”
Su Chen, who was originally quite moved, pushed Alan away, I treat you as a good friend, but what you are worried about is your salary, I have orange and wheat husks and I don't know if I am an oar?
"Ciel, Dale, see you later. After Su Chen and the two friendly crooked nuts hugged, they exchanged contact information, and it was time to say goodbye.
Sitting on Allen's pickup truck, driving all the way to the small fishing port, Su Chen was impatient with Allen's question, and he picked up the electric tape on the car to seal his mouth.
Seeing this, Alan closed his mouth in amusement, whistled, and looked around, as if he had done nothing.
Without the chattering Allen, Su Chen felt that the whole world was quiet, blowing the winter breeze, and the wind on the seaside was mixed with a faint fishy smell, and the closer to the fishing port, the greater the smell.
The sea breeze is not as dry as the wind in my hometown, and it hurts to blow it.
Australia in the southern hemisphere is half a year different from the Chinese season, Australia is winter from June to August, spring is from September to November, and it is now the end of August.
The pickup truck drove into the small fishing port, and Su Chen looked at the many fishermen in the fishing port holding strange sea fish, with a happy smile on his face.
"Alan, why are they so happy, still holding the strange fish. ”
Allen, who was honking the horn to show good, glanced back and said a little excitedly: "It's spring soon, and every family is preparing seafood to participate in the Perth City Odd Fish Conference." ”
"What is the Strange Fish Conference?" Su Chen had never heard of at all.
Alan suddenly realized that his boss was a crooked nut, and he didn't know that these were normal, so he explained carefully.
"Every spring, during the tourist season, Perth City hosts a strange fish conference to attract foreign tourists to watch the strange fish eat seafood. ”
"And we, the fishermen, will take the opportunity to prepare some strange and beautiful sea fish to participate, if we win the Odd Fish Championship Cup, there will be a bonus, even if we can't win the championship, we can sell it to crooked nuts at the conference. ”
"Every year, the festival attracts tens of thousands of tourists from home and abroad, and a lot of seafood can be sold, so everyone is happy. ”
Su Chen's eyes lit up, strange fish, God-given opportunity, is there anything stranger than the king squid?
Squeak~~Z~~
The pickup truck stopped steadily in front of Allen's dilapidated house, and when he was about to let Su Chen get out of the car, he found that Su Chen was only wearing a pair of beach pants.
"Wait, I'll get you clothes. ”
Wearing Allen's wide clothes and pants, Su Chen was quite uncomfortable, loose is good, but this is too loose, the trouser legs are bigger than his head, cumbersome.
But now I can only settle for a while, after all, there is a little girl in the house, so I have to pay attention to the image.
Leaning on the front of the car, Su Chen said expectantly: "Allen, can the squid participate?"
Alan touched his bearded chin and wondered, "Squid is not unusual, I guess not." ”
"What about the big squid?"
"How old?"
Su Chen circled around the pickup truck, patted the hood, and said lightly: "It's bigger than your pickup truck." ”
Allen stiffened when he touched his chin, and said with a wry smile: "Boss, you are so humorous." The corners of his mouth twitched, and he said secretly: "Doesn't it mean that the Chinese people are very low-key and modest? ”
Su Chen, who was questioned, kept smiling and said seriously: "What I said is true, no joke." ”
Alan looked Su Chen up and down, a little unconvinced, "Really?"
"Of course, three or four tons, bigger than your pickup. ”
Alan looked at Su Chen dumbfounded, looking very serious.
Reached out and touched Su Chen's forehead.
"Boss, you won't fall into the sea, you're stupid. ”
Slap Alan's hand off, damn it, do you trust me so much?
I fooled around with Ellen ecstasy for a long time before I could bluff this crooked nut with a tiger's back.
Alan said excitedly: "If it's true, the Oddfish Conference Championship Cup belongs to us, and this is a 50,000 Australian dollar bonus." ”
Patting Allen on the shoulder, Su Chen said with relief: "Allen, I am very optimistic about you, and this matter will be left to you." ”
He didn't want to run around dealing with all these chores, he hadn't had a good rest yet.
Allen patted his chest and said generously: "Don't worry, boss, wrap it up on me." ”
With Allen, a native of Perth, this matter is half done, and if it is handed over to Su Chen, I don't know how many detours I have to take.
Gold is hard to buy.
Regardless of Allen, who was so excited that he slapped the hood, Su Chen walked straight into the broken house.
Chrissy was lying on the table studying seriously, and the textbooks in her hands were all tattered, probably used by other children in the fishing port.
Su Chen quietly walked over and took out a few large conch conchs from the system space, colorful and very beautiful.
This was when he was at the bottom of the sea in Australia, Su Chen got it at the bottom of the sea, and he wanted to give it to Chrissy as a gift.
"Chrissy, look at what gift my brother has brought you. ”
Chrissy, who was concentrating, was frightened and almost fell off the bench, but fortunately was supported by Su Chen.
When she looked up and saw that it was Su Chen who was holding her, Chrissy was not so scared, she still remembered that Su Chen had taken her to eat delicious food.
Then I saw the colorful conch on the table, and my happy little face was red, and I couldn't put it down.
"Thank you, big brother. ”
Seeing that Chrissy was sick, it was rare to smile, and Allen, who walked in, also looked at Su Chen gratefully.
Su Chen smiled slightly, within the scope of his ability, he was very satisfied to bring laughter to a not very good family.
