839. The Baby Turtle Hatched (9/10)
After walking around the farm for several hours, Qin Shiou reluctantly left, the farm has a different style than the fishing ground, and the farm is more attractive to him, a peasant child who came out of the crops.
Mao Weilong saw it and persuaded: "If you want to buy a farm, then I agree, don't buy this farm." I'd love to be your neighbor, but I don't want to see you wronged. ”
The people who participated in the wedding had already left, and Mao's father had a case waiting in China, so he left Mao's mother to accompany his son and went back early. There are not many people left in this way, and when he eats at night, Qin Shiou feels that he is troublesome to cook, and it is not worth it, so it is better to go to the town to eat.
The center of the town is only a fifteen-minute drive from Mother Earth Farm, and like Farewell Town, the town is small, driving from east to west, and you can barely step on the gas pedal, otherwise you will drive over.
Mao Weilong smiled: "There are only 400 people in total, how big do you want this town to be?" ”
The town has the benefits of a small town, so people are more familiar with each other, and everyone knows something immediately.
After Mao Weilong got out of the car, someone greeted him when he saw him, congratulating him on his happy wedding, and a grocery store owner sent him a plastic couple villain, a small gift is not valuable, but it makes people's hearts warm.
"The atmosphere of the town is good." Qin Shiou said that this is better than saying goodbye to the town.
Mao Weilong smiled contentedly: "It's pretty good, especially after Lagrange's unlucky ghost got out, everyone got along more harmoniously." ”
This kind of farm town is like a small independent kingdom, although it is small, and the town has a gas station, a supermarket, a grocery store, a crop store, and so on. Of course, banks, post offices, schools and the like are also indispensable.
A main road divides the town in half, and it is lined with small shops. Most of the goods are small, but they are enough for the town's daily needs.
Similar to the previous farewell island. There are only two restaurants and one dessert shop in the town, and Qin Shiou said goodbye to the island when he first came, but now it has prospered a lot, and tourists have driven the development of the market, and there must be more than 20 restaurants and restaurants on the island.
Mao Weilong took Qin Shiou to a small restaurant called 'Texas Style', it was the time of the meal, and there were not many people who came to eat, the meal was very quiet, and the guests talked very quietly.
Qin Shiou likes this kind of atmosphere. After sitting down, an elderly lady came to order food, and after seeing Liu Shuyan, she gave her a warm hug and said: "What a lovely girl, congratulations on your marriage, I must invite you to eat a happy egg tart today, don't refuse." ”
Liu Shuyan pursed her lips and smiled: "Thank you, Aunt Dai Lier, I will not refuse the gift you gave me, it just so happened that my Chinese friend brought me a little black tea." Your stomach isn't so good, is it? Then you drink some of this tea in the afternoon, which is good for the body. ”
As she spoke, she took out a box of beautifully packaged tea leaves from Kun's bag and gave it to the old lady, whose eyes narrowed into a slit with joy. A plate of fragrant golden egg tarts was served on the back, and it was also equipped with apple juice, saying that it was a congratulatory gift for Mao Weilong and Liu Shuyan.
Canadians are also very courteous. Is everyone in the town so kind and generous? Of course not, this is the result of Mao Weilong and Liu Shuyan's hard work in the past days. They gave away their friendship, and they reaped the friendship of these people.
There is no natural goodwill. There is no eternal malice, and if you pay hard, you can always gain some friendship.
After staying on the farm for another night, Qin Shiou then returned to the fishing ground, he originally wanted to stay for two more days, so he accompanied his parents back to China, and then went to attend the wedding of Song Junmei and Yan Fei on National Day.
But Auerbach, who had returned to the fishing ground first, called him and said that someone had been looking for him and asked him to go back.
Qin Shiou returned to the fishing ground to take a look, and what was waiting for him was Parry Rak, the mayor of Kabila Town on the Island of Ice and Fire.
"Hey man, what wind blew you into my fishing grounds? How was your last visit here? Any new ideas? Qin Shiou said enthusiastically.
Compared with the sad face at the beginning, the current Parry is much more high-pitched, and he said optimistically: "It's not bad, Qin, our town has been doing well recently, your companion has opened a bakery in our town, and there is a guy who is building a casino, if it can be built, then the town will have no problem surviving." ”
Qin Shiou said that it was good, and then asked him the purpose of coming this time.
Parry came with a sturdy old fisherman, with a large suitcase beside him, which he opened to reveal a short knife with a shimmering handle, sharp and exquisitely crafted.
Qin Shiou blinked, not understanding what he meant.
Parry smiled, "Well, we want to start a craft shop in your town, specializing in selling some of the things that are produced on our island, like these daggers made from shark teeth, which should make some money." ”
Qin Shiou felt that this was indeed a good idea, this kind of short knife was considered a work of art, and it was estimated that it was very popular among tourists, and even he wanted to buy a few to decorate the villa.
But what does this have to do with him?
Parry explained, "Your mayor is in the process of a mayoral transition, and your acting mayor doesn't have much power or power, so I'll have to ask you for help to open the market here." ”
Qin Shiou laughed and said, "What does this help?" We have a saying in China, the fragrance of wine is not afraid of deep alleys, you go to rent a mobile cottage, go to the street to sell it, the business must not be wrong! ”
A mobile hut is a kind of small house that can be dragged like a food truck, of course, much larger, and more than enough to sell handicrafts.
Liupari had a meal at the fishing ground, and Qin Shiou called Hughes Jr. and asked him to help Parry get a better position in the town, and the matter was settled.
After dealing with this matter, Qin Shiou was idle, and then got a message from the fishermen: the leatherback turtle eggs began to hatch!
After getting the news, Qin Shiou hurriedly ran to the river beach to watch.
Because the sex of leatherback turtles is related to the hatching temperature, Qin Shiou deliberately installed an electric heater on the beach before, which heated the beach 24 hours a day, and the temperature was maintained at about 30 degrees.
Qin Shiou consulted with wildlife protection organizations, and in the incubation temperature range, the higher the temperature, the faster the embryo develops, and the shorter the incubation time; Conversely, the lower the temperature, the slower the embryo development and the longer the incubation time.
In the incubation temperature of leatherback turtles, when the temperature is between 23 and 27 °C, the vast majority of juvenile turtles are male; When the temperature is before 30 to 35°C, the vast majority of juvenile turtles are female.
In order for the leatherback turtle group to reproduce, it naturally needs female turtles, so Qin Shiou controlled the temperature at around 30 degrees.
This temperature is also very suitable for the hatching of turtle eggs, compared to the normal situation, these turtle eggs take less than a month to hatch, and because Qin Shiou injected the mother turtle with Poseidon energy before, the hatching rate is very high, and the baby turtle is extremely strong.
The newly hatched leatherback turtles are only the size of a child's palm, the shell is black, and after they get out of the sand, they hold their heads high and carefully look around, and after feeling that there is no danger, they immediately move their little short legs into the sea.
It's still fast! (To be continued......)
