288. Enchanted by the city of Meng

"Although the Bell-47 is classic, the price is much higher, close to 1 million yuan." "The engine is good, with a Lycoming engine and a VO-435-A1B6-cylinder engine. ”

For Qin Shiou, one million is not expensive, but it seems that it is really not cost-effective to buy a helicopter for cruising, after all, the purpose of this aircraft is very simple, and it can be used for a short flight.

"There are many models of the Bell-47, in fact there may be hundreds, and the price varies greatly, from 100,000 yuan to 4 million." Asik looked at Qin Shiou with a hesitant expression and said.

"But I really don't think about the Bell-47, the cheap Bell can't even have a radar, the space is small, the engine is inferior, and it's dangerous to fly in the air. On the contrary, the Hummingbird 260L, Rotway A600 and the like are good. ”

Introduced, Asik's phone rang, he answered with a look of surprise on his face, and after hanging up the phone, he said to Qin Shiou: "We have received a new helicopter, I think you must be interested, AC-310, a civil helicopter developed and produced by your country's AVIC Helicopter Company." ”

As soon as he heard this, Qin Shiou was indeed interested and asked, "Is there a prototype of this aircraft?" ”

Asik laughed: "You can see it the day after tomorrow, why don't you stay in Montreal for two days and visit here at the same time." Trust me, it was an absolutely right decision, Montreal is a great city. ”

Qin Shiou agreed to Asik's invitation with a sense of urgency, Montreal is indeed a great city, and it has been ranked first for a long time in the United Nations selection of human livable cities.

Evening. Qin Shiou came out of the hotel to walk his dog and walked slowly on the street.

From the perspective of the city, it is difficult to combine Montreal with a modern industrial city, and the place where Qin Shiou stays is the old town, and the scenery is pleasant. There are many buildings from 100 years ago.

The road was narrow, only able to accommodate two cars in parallel, and the street lamps on both sides were still gas lamps, and not long after he went downstairs, a carriage ran past him.

The tiger and the leopard saw the carriage for the first time and tilted their heads for a while. Happily chased after him, the horse's hooves were light and melodious, and the driver looked back and saw the tiger and leopard chasing behind, laughing, and throwing up the whip.

Geographically very close to the European coast and Vancouver, Montreal also blends the best of both continents with its architectural looks, tastes, and feels. On churches and remains of ancient buildings. In addition to retaining the North American contours, there are also some European styles.

This can be seen from the towering ceiling of the Gothic Twin Towers Cathedral, Qin Shiou went in and prayed, the tiger and the leopard were waiting outside the door, and an old godfather with a white beard saw it, smiled and came up to sprinkle some holy water on the two little guys, and blessed them in a friendly way.

Qin Shiou nodded to his godfather in thanks, and the latter smiled kindly: "Are you here to travel, child?" ”

Don't want to explain. Qin Shiou said, "Yes, how can I enjoy the scenery around here?" ”

"You take the cute Labradoodle with you, then go ahead. Go to Damel Square, it's great, and maybe you can even meet a beautiful exotic love there. The old godfather laughed.

Qin Shiou walked forward according to the guidance of the old godfather, and a square that was not too wide appeared in his field of vision.

There is an ancient statue in the center of the square and a statue of a dog, no wonder the old godfather asked him to come to this square, dogs are very popular here. When she saw the tiger and the leopard, a girl enthusiastically came up and broke bread to feed them.

Qin Shiou went to the statue and looked at it. Here's an introduction that says that the owner of the statue is called Mezonave. He was a missionary who enthusiastically founded the city's first church, pacified the irascible Iroquois, cared for the old and sick, and provided shelter for the homeless.

The statue dog next to it is called 'Kobiknay', which has nothing to do with Mesonave, but in 1644 it alerted the inhabitants to the impending plague and led the inhabitants to block a nest of germ-laden rats, so that the people of Montreal were saved from the terrible plague.

In the evening, there were a lot of people wandering around the square, and their rhythm of life seemed to be slower than that of Farewell Town, and some people were curious about Qin Shiou's skin color and hair color so they chatted with him, and during the chat, Qin Shiou knew that the Twin Towers Cathedral he had just entered was the famous Notre Dame Cathedral in Montreal.

After that, he left the square with the tiger and the leopard, and went to the seminary of St. Surbis, the rue de Saint-Ark, and the museum of the ChΓ’teau de Hamecha, and it was completely dark before he went to eat.

Montreal is said to be a culinary paradise on par with the gastronomic capital of the world, and has the second-highest number of restaurants per capita in North America, after New York.

Qin Shiou went to a restaurant called 'beautys' and bought some pancake rolls with salami and hot dogs, smoked salmon with cheese, and bagel sprinkled with onions and tomato shards.

While eating by himself, Qin Shiou fed the tiger and the leopard at the same time, and a homeless man came over when he saw him feed the dog with fresh food. Qin Shiou did not discriminate against him, and bought a quiche and Spanish frozen soup for him to eat.

After eating and drinking, the homeless man sang a song to Qin Shiou after thanking him, this person's high and low pitch and singing skills were actually very good, Qin Shiou felt that if he was willing, it would be no problem to go to an ordinary band to be the lead singer.

Back at the hotel, Qin Shiou was just about to leave, but he noticed that there were a lot of photos hanging on both sides of the corridor, he went to take a look, and it turned out to be Elizabeth Taylor smiling sweetly in her wedding dress.

A waiter passed by and said with a smile: "This is a picture of Ms. Taylor at our hotel's wedding, and I dare say every man was jealous of Charlid Burton at the time." ”

When Qin Shiou heard this, he immediately felt that this hotel was high-end and high-grade.

He searched on the Internet, only to find that he was blind to gold and jade, and the Skycity Group really treated him as a VIP, this hotel is called 'Ritz-Carlton Hotel', which may not be the most luxurious five-star hotel in Montreal, but it is the most tasteful and famous hotel.

After another day's stay, Asik took him on a day of sightseeing in Montreal and tasted everything from a pizza-like steak of steak tartare on a round plate topped with a layer of mustard ice cream and garnished with crushed croutons.

You can also try a confectionery called 'vert', which is made with diced green apples, olive oil, pistachios, white chocolate yogurt and coriander leaves.

On the third day, the AC-310 arrived, and Qin Shiou killed it in the morning and saw this famous helicopter produced by the motherland and sold to North America. (To be continued)
