If you don't figure it out, don't do it yet, Qin Shiou retracted the Seagod Consciousness, even if it was just to strengthen the previous ability, he was very satisfied with the eight Seagod Consciousness he had now, so that his control over the ocean would be stronger.

There was only chaotic dirty water left in the bathtub, Qin Shiou pulled out the plug and let the dirty water flow, and then lay down on the bed contentedly.

When it was time for dinner, Auerbach called and asked him to accompany the veteran to dinner.

Qin Shiou hurriedly cleaned up, he got such a big benefit from the veteran, he should repay others, and this kind of reward is not only material, but also spiritual and psychological, he has to respect the veteran.

Moreover, the veteran's personality is also worthy of his respect, if it were him, he would not dare to guarantee that he would collect a gift that has no effect on himself for decades, and put it on ordinary people, this piece of ambergris would have been thrown away long ago.

Qin Shiou took the veteran to a Chinese restaurant, and saw that the decoration style was quite luxurious, and the veteran muttered when he entered, saying that he had not eaten in such a restaurant since he moved here.

When the dish is served, the first thing that comes up is a large bowl of wide noodles, decorated with green vegetables and floating meat foam, and the wide noodles are snow-white in color, and there are carved patterns on them.

This Chinese restaurant was specially searched by Qin Shiou on the Internet, good at making noodles, and is considered one of the best noodle restaurants in Vancouver, of course, the price is not low, such a bowl of noodles costs more than 60 yuan, enough for ordinary people to eat a meal.

Seeing this bowl of wide noodles, the old man laughed and said embarrassedly: "Xiao Qin, you really have a heart." ”

During the meal, Qin Shiou quietly asked Auerbach about going to the daycare, and the old lawyer nodded and said, "He is very happy, he knows more about that veterans' daycare than we do, and obviously he has plans to enter before." ”

As for why he didn't go in the end. The reason is simple, it must not be that much money.

Canadian citizen benefits are among the top in the world, such as free medical care for all, complete public facilities, 12 years of free education, etc., but the premise of enjoying these is that you have to pay taxes and have social security, otherwise everything is exempt.

Take free education as an example, can all children enjoy the benefits of free education? No. It is available to families who pay the education tax, which is about $500 a year.

The veteran does not have social security, and he does not have a pension to get, not because he did not work hard when he was young, but because he has suffered too much injustice.

During World War II, veterans sacrificed their lives for Canada, but after the war, they were semi-forced to retire. They left the army and worked part-time because of discrimination. I can't find a serious job at all, so I can only work as a casual worker, not only with a low income, but also without a company to pay social security for them......

But Chen Veteran was very open-minded, and when he talked about these topics at the dinner table, he smiled and said: "Later, the discrimination situation in Canada was not very serious, and our efforts were also rewarded, and you contributed to this country in the war like us Chinese." Not long after the end of World War II, the government lifted its discriminatory policies against ethnic Chinese. ”

There is no social security, no pension. It is very difficult for veterans to get into daycare, because daycares are not basic benefits of the state, but private commercial establishments that require a fee.

The good news is that Canadian provincial governments are investing in and funding this service in light of the growing demand for adult day care. Universities and colleges also offer courses on elder care, and adult day care is now an emerging opportunity for education and business in Canada.

Most of B.C.'s adult day care services are subsidized by the provincial government, with private individuals paying an average of $1,100 per month. Of course, the cost of different daycare needs are different. The main cost of the veteran daycare center in Vancouver is borne by the government, and private individuals only need to bear about 600 yuan per month.

Even then, the veterans could not afford it.

Of course, this money was trivial to Qin Shiou, and they set off for Vancouver by car early the next morning and contacted the veterans' daycare.

The daycare is located in a beautiful area on the outskirts of Vancouver in a natural park, and the interior of the daycare is modeled like a military barracks, with trenches dug in places, guards standing guard at the entrance, and even artillery and tanks on display.

Auerbach contacted the head of the daycare in advance, and when they arrived, they were shown around by a woman in military uniform.

While introducing the facilities, the service staff explained their characteristics: "We can provide different services according to the payment, but even the most low-end services can meet the needs of an elderly gentleman, such as haircuts, assistance with bathing, garbage disposal, laundry, organizing activities, etc. ”

Qin Shiou took a turn inside and found that the daycare provided a lot of activities, such as bowling, handicraft making, chess and card games, pet visitors, shopping trips and some light physical competitions.

He was interested in the tiered charges and asked, "How much is the highest tier?" What services are offered? ”

The service staff said: "The most upscale is 2,800 yuan per month, which can provide accommodation in a single room, with a special escort, meals can be customized according to taste and physical condition, birthdays are carried out independently, and so on." ”

After Qin Shiou figured it out, he went to ask the veteran how he felt about here, and the veteran smiled with satisfaction: "It's good, it's so good here, so many old guys, of course it's much better than me living alone." ”

Since this is the case, Qin Shiou went to pay directly, he paid the fee for a year first, and then left his contact information, and after a year, the veterans' daycare can contact him every month to charge.

"According to the highest grade, if my grandfather has any questions, contact me in time." Qin Shiou said.

Rich and popular wherever he is, the service staff listened to his words and said with a smile: "Please rest assured, Mr. Qin, we will take care of this respectable veteran, and every week we will send you an email to introduce the physical condition and life details of this old man Zhou." ”

Qin Shiou nodded and went to tell the veteran that he could live here with peace of mind and enjoy the highest standard of service in the future.

In this way, all that remains is to move, and bring some items that the veteran's family is reluctant to throw away, and he directs the moving company to work for a day and finish it all, and then prepare to go back.

When they parted, the veteran took Qin Shiou's hand and burst into tears again: "I must have done something good in my last life, I can know your family in this life, Brother Qin has saved me several times, and you helped me settle my old age, I don't know what to say." ”

Qin Shiou hugged the veteran and said, "Grandpa Chen, don't think about it, this is what I should do, I am also grateful for your righteous act of keeping that piece of gray amber for my grandfather." (To be continued......)
