In the morning, Qin Shiou waved goodbye to Powell and other children and sent them on the school bus, and just when they came back, their mobile phones rang.

He answered the phone call from Brandon, and asked, "Qin, you are really crazy, you spent 30 million in a week?!" Surely it's not true, it's a problem with our banking network, right? ”

Qin Shiou smiled: "Relax, man, I'm all used to do business, these 30 million must be spent, and you can't put it in your bank to give birth to worms, right?" ”

Brandon smacked his lips exaggeratedly, and he chatted with Qin Shiou for a while before he said formally: "Okay, man, you have spent thousands of dollars in a year, so Amex has provided you with a service manager." ”

"What is this for?" Qin Shiou asked.

Brandon said: "It's equivalent to the American Express company hires a life secretary for you, you have to book air tickets, train tickets, hotels, concerts, etc., etc., just give her a phone call, and she will do it for you." In other words, what do you want to consult, stock market dynamics, current affairs news, etc., etc., give her a call, and she will immediately find the answer for you to tell you. ”

Qin Shiou laughed and said, "Wow, this is a good service, does she provide anything?" ”

Brandon laughed even more unscrupulously and said, "You bastard boy, well, she'll give you whatever you want." But I don't believe that a kid who doesn't dare to take a hot girl from a beauty hunting party will do anything to his life secretary. ”

In the end, he also said: "Don't blame me for not reminding you, although the Yuntong company has a lot of money, the life secretaries they hire are very poor, and their voices may be more beautiful." But if you meet you, you know it's scary! ”

Qin Shiou hung up the phone and smiled at Auerbach next to him: "Look, I have alarmed Americans with all my money, will Obama call me later?" ”

"I don't know if Obama will call you or not," Auerbach said. But I think the mayor of St. John's will call you. ”

Qin Shiou was just joking, and when he heard Auerbach say this, he asked, "What do you mean?" ”

Auerbach handed Qin Shiou a copy of the Porto Santo Economic Newspaper with a news item saying that Qin Shiou, a Chinese fisherman, had made a special contribution to the local economy. Awarded the Tula Reeves Award for the first half of the year.

The Tula Reeves Award was first created in 1987 and is a somewhat ironic award.

In 1987, the United States suffered a severe economic crisis, and Canada, as an important economic partner of the United States, was naturally affected. Newfoundland, because of its proximity to the United States and its many transactions with Massachusetts, is the second most affected in Canada, with the largest being Quebec.

At that time, the fishing grounds in St. John's were almost shut down, because almost all the accessories used in the fishing boats here were imported from the United States, and the factories in the United States were shut down, so how could they replace the parts for their fishing boats?

Tula Reeves was an African-American businessman who was a very good guy who contacted the Soviet Union, which had not yet collapsed. It has opened a new road for machine accessories.

In addition, it is known that the USSR also had a long coastline. It is very good for the construction of fishing boats. In this way, a large number of low-cost, durable Soviet fishing boats were introduced by Reeves to St. John's, and then spread throughout Newfoundland.

In recognition of Tula Reeves' contribution to saving Newfoundland's economy, the St. John's government set up an award from that year, the Tula Reeves Award, also known as the Special Contribution to Economic Recovery. Awarded semi-annually.

It is ironic to say that this award was set up because it was supposed to be a year when the Newfoundland fishing grounds had taken a break. That cod resources may have recovered.

It turned out that the great Mr. Reeves helped to deal the final blow to the fishery resources of the Newfoundland fishery: five years later. In 1992, the Canadian government had to close the Newfoundland Fishing Grounds, one of the four largest fishing grounds in the world!

Qin Shiou can't care about this, anyway, now he is going to win the award, and for immigrants, it is better to win a prize than not to win a prize.

On the day the news broke, as Auerbach said, the mayor of St. John's, Dennis O'Kepher, called him, first thanked him for his contribution to the economic recovery of his hometown, and then invited him to attend the government's award press conference for him.

Qin Shiou really couldn't laugh or cry here, not to mention what Okaifo said about 'contribution to his hometown', he only said that he only spent 30 million Canadian dollars to get this award, which is also a bit too weak.

He knows that many cities in China are now engaged in real estate construction, and it seems that any real estate developer will invest no less than 150 million yuan, right? The money can't afford to make a splash in the country, and when it comes to St. John's, the mayor can give him an award.

This award is a real award, not only a press conference, but also a government award for a ship as a bonus.

The boat is a fishing boat, belonging to the tuna fishing boat, the length is 11 meters, the width is 4 meters, the draft is 1.4 meters, the conventional speed is 14 knots, the fastest speed is 18 knots, it is equipped with 16 rod sockets, there is a crane in the bow and stern, and the diesel engine power is 380 kilowatts.

In order to get the ship, Qin Shiou went to St. John's at the end of July, he originally thought that since the government had prepared a press conference for himself, then this trip must be very grand, and the mayor would at least have to accompany him throughout the whole process, right?

As a result, the mayor of St. John's, Mr. O'Kepher, only presented him with a framed certificate at the award ceremony, then shook his hand and encouraged him to do a good job, and then drifted away without a trace.

As for the celebratory dinner that Qin Shiou was looking forward to? Sorry, no!

The ship was at the Poseidon Marine Heavy Industries Group, and it was Hanks Brewer, the account manager who received him last time.

Hanks shook hands with him warmly, and asked him if he wanted to get a few more boats, he was so impressed by Qin Shiou that he only pulled back two boats not long ago, and as a result, he invested tens of millions in the fishing ground, which is a big customer.

Qin Shiou couldn't stand this enthusiasm, he didn't stay in St. John's, and no one left to take care of the food anyway, so he took this tuna fishing boat back to the fishing grounds, so that his fishing boat had one more boat.

What is the name of this ship? Qin Shiou scratched his head, just call it the Bluefin Tuna, but when he signed up for the Ship Statistics Bureau, people told him that his name had been taken up and he had to rename it.

Scratching his head again, Qin Shiou simply named it 'Snowball', yes, this time his pet also began to have a boat.

Finally settled down, and in the evening Qin Shiou's mobile phone rang again, and this time it was Weier who helped him get the dock open.

In the same vein, Weil congratulated him on his investment in the new fishing grounds, and then invited him to his home.

Qin Shiou has been so busy lately, how can he have time to be a guest? Fortunately, he had an explanation, explaining that Winnie had gone back to work, and the next time she came back from leave, she would definitely go to Vail's house as a guest.

This can't be denied, after all, he promised Will at the time that he would go to someone's house with Winnie as a guest.

Weier could only say that he was sorry, but outside of what he said, he was still asking, Qin Shiou got two more fishing grounds here, do you want to build a wharf? If you don't repair the wharf, then repair something else, whether it is a house or a road, they can do it in the Weir construction team...... (To be continued)
