Chapter 281: Proud Local Uncle!
"It's okay, live broadcast to eat hot pot?" Zhang Feng asked.
Naturally, it was enthusiastically catered to by the audience in the live broadcast room, and a happy hot pot made the audience who were still watching the live broadcast in the middle of the night drool while imagining how Zhang Feng would sleep after the car was full of hot pot smells.
……
The place where Zhang Feng sleeps is very beautiful, and there are seagulls.
When I got up in the morning, I was eating breakfast in the car, and suddenly I saw a Norwegian uncle running towards Zhang Feng's car, Zhang Feng was surprised if he had made any mistake, but the uncle said: Seeing that Zhang Feng stopped here last night, he must have slept in the car, which was very hard, so he invited Zhang Feng to their house to wash his face and drink a cup of coffee! Wow, I was so moved! It turned out that the uncle lived on the hillside on the side of the highway, and I could just see Zhang Feng's car parked by the river.
Although he didn't bother people in the end, Zhang Feng was still deeply grateful to the Norwegians for their enthusiasm to help others.
Zhang Feng continued to belong to his itinerary, and in the morning, he was ridiculed by the audience in the live broadcast room for not turning off the live broadcast last night when he went to bed and ran out.
"Do I believe it?"
[If you don't believe it, we can p the map anyway!]
[Haha, that makes sense!]
……
This time, the destination is the Lofoten Islands, which are a long and narrow archipelago with only one E10 road, so you won't get lost. On the left is the mountain, on the right is the sea. The iconic red houses are scattered in the sea, like blooming flowers, so Zhang Feng named this destination ------ "Journey of Flowers on the Sea".
The Lofoton Islands are located in the north of Norway and are all within the Arctic Circle (above 66°34'N).
The spectacular Lofoten Islands are carved out of ancient glaciers. Lofoten means "bobcat's foot" in Norwegian, and it is so named because the Vestfjorden fjord isolates it from mainland Norway (hence the name archipelago, not the peninsula), leaving it alone on the open sea. Still, from a distance, the archipelago looks like a chain that is forever connected. A series of precipitous islands rising from the adjacent elevation resemble both a "wall of Lofoten" and a cat's foot ("Lofoten" means "bobcat foot" in Norwegian).
The Lofoton Islands can be reached by sea or by plane.
Along the way, Zhang Feng also encountered a football training ground.
Perhaps inherited from the predatory genes of the Vikings, coupled with the fact that Norwegian football is good at playing high and high, it is a representative of the European power style of play.
Denmark and Sweden have been the representatives of Nordic football in recent decades. Norwegian football, however, has always been in the shadow of these two teams, not well known. However, after entering the 90s of the last century, Norwegian football has accumulated a lot of experience, and Norway not only reached the World Cup finals twice in 1994 and 1998, but also defeated the world champion Brazil twice, becoming a veritable "giant killer".
Entering the urban area of the city here, there were few people on the street, and a melodious bell came from a church, which attracted Zhang Feng's attention.
"It's been a long time since I had faith, go in and take a look......?
[Don't go!]
[That's it, Brother Xinchun!]
……
"Well, no!"
Escaping from the church, Zhang Feng rushed to the ferry terminal to get ready for lunch, as he planned to do a short sea stroll. At the dock, Zhang Feng met several young girls. Strange attire: a scarf on the top, shorts on the bottom (the place is already in the Arctic Circle, the temperature is around 6 degrees), and each person carries a huge backpack, as well as tents, cooking utensils and musical instruments. They sat in a circle on the floor, as if they were in a meeting, and they seemed to be praying.
For Zhang Feng, just one sentence, I don't know how to do it!
[Anchor, what are you doing?]
[That's it, what are you doing running to the dock?]
……
"Let's go to the other islands!"
The first town Zhang Feng arrived in was the town of Mokkenes, which was located in the southern part of the island, and its subordinate villages included Ocun (?), Hamn?y, Moskenes, Renne, Sakris?y, S?rv?gen and Tind, all of which were located on the east side of the island. The West Coast was once inhabited, but due to a storm, the last settlement was abandoned in the 1950s.
Zhang Feng plans to live in Aocun today, and as soon as he enters Aocun, there is a strong smell of fish.
"It's so fishy!" Zhang Feng sighed.
【Arrived at the fishing village?】
"Yes, the fishing village has arrived!" Zhang Feng affirmed.
[The house here is really full of flowers, and it looks so happy!]
[It's much better than the unified planning and unified color of our county!]
……
"I'm going to find a place to live, and then I'm going to talk to a local guy about it, and I'll have to trouble translating it into good English. Zhang Feng said.
……
Stopped and found a B&B, which was actually a small cabin. In the Lofoten Islands, there are no high-end hotels, only these cabins for fishermen. The cod fishing season is from February to March every year, and a large number of fishermen come here. As more and more tourists come here for their holidays, many of the cabins have been converted into holiday cottages.
After checking in, Zhang Feng found a small café, Europeans generally love coffee, Zhang Feng took the coffee and found a kind middle-aged uncle, asked if he could talk, the uncle seemed to be lonely, and was happy to agree to Zhang Feng's request.
“…… Okuzhen used to be a traditional fishing village, and the villagers made a living by catching cod. Nowadays, however, the village has also begun to use tourism as a new economic development point. There are two museums in Austria, the Lofoten Cod Museum and the Norwegian Fishing Village Museum. ”
But when Zhang Feng went to see the Cod Museum, he found that it was no longer open.
"Every year from January to April, at that time, thousands of cod are like rows of rugby balls, swinging their round bodies, and rushing to the North Atlantic, haha...... These cod made an expedition from the Barents Sea in the east in a spectacular spectacle comparable to the great migration of animals in the Serengeti grasslands of East Africa. And our sparsely populated Lofoten Islands have thus become a temple in the hearts of the world's best sea anglers. The uncle said with pride on his face.
Zhang Feng also checked afterwards and learned a lot about cod.
"There are so many cod, and the dried cod processing industry has naturally become a traditional pillar industry on the island. Every year in February and March, fishermen begin to dry the fish, and after three months, the dried fish is finished and collected and packaged for export. After a fish is purchased, the head of the fish must be removed first, and then, by an inspection worker to classify, one look, two smells, and then according to the quality of the fish, thrown into different large plastic buckets, and then by a worker to stack neatly, and then enter the next process, that is, the dried fish is weighed and packaged. ”
"Norway produces 1,200-1,500 tonnes of dried fish per year, of which more than 500 tonnes are in the Moskones region alone. These dried fish are mainly exported to the United States, Italy and Nigeria, and the fish heads are mostly exported to Nigeria. ”
"Don't underestimate dried fish, it's an important part of Norwegian history. In the 13th and 14th centuries, 80% of the main revenue of our Norwegian state came from dried fish. Uncle continued.
Speaking of which, the coffee in the uncle's cup was gone, Zhang Feng hurriedly asked the uncle what he was drinking, and he had a treat.
The uncle said that he liked the original flavor, Zhang Feng hurriedly went to the bar and brought a cup to the uncle, and continued to listen to the uncle.
