According to the plan, the fishermen stayed on the island of Fire and Ice for three days before they were ready to leave.

For three days, the fishermen had enough of suffering, because the island lacked almost everything, and they had to sail to the other side of the ocean for a cold beer.

This is also the biggest dilemma that the island is currently encountering, they need to take a ferry to buy daily necessities, which is too troublesome. The bigger trouble is with the government, which has to arrange two ferries a day in order to maintain the normal life of the town's residents.

The ship burns oil!

For the old gentlemen and ladies of the town, these three days are good, they like to be lively, and the arrival of the fishermen and the media has restored a lot of vitality to the long-dormant town.

The townspeople are more welcoming to the media, and they have been talking to reporters for the past few days, telling them about their plight, hoping that the media can help them.

At the end of the farewell, Wright also pulled the reporter of the "Ottawa Maple Leaf" and said: "We don't actually want to leave here, in your opinion, this place is very shabby, but for our old guys, this is home!" It was the water and fish of this broken island that fed us! ”

"We don't need to enjoy anything, and lo and behold, we can reach the steps of heaven with our heels cocked, and what else can an old man in his seventies or eighties covet? As long as we have basic necessities, bread, fresh water, and electricity, we are willing to live here. ”

Listening to the sad and helpless words of the old people, the fishermen silently lowered their heads, they could not help the old people at this point.

What Qin Shiou could do was to invite the mayor of the town, Parry, to Farewell Island as a guest to see if he could find inspiration to improve the current situation of the town.

When they were ready to get on board. Old Williams came running, carrying a hiking bag on his back. Beckoning and shouting, "Hey, guys. Don't rush to go, lo and behold, we've got you guys a little gift, I don't know if you like it. ”

When I opened my backpack, I found a dagger with a delicate handle.

The daggers were twenty-five or six centimeters longest, five or six centimeters long, and the handles were carefully wound with cyan nylon rope and clear fishing line, and the scabbards were made of flexible shark skin.

The dagger Qin Shiou got was fifteen centimeters long, and after he pulled it out. The blade is sharp, with pattern-like blood grooves, but the texture is peculiar, like bone fragments.

"What is this?" Qin Shiou guessed, "This is made from the teeth of a Greenland shark?" ”

"Yes." Old Williams smiled excitedly, "Remember the Greenland shark head we fished out of the sea?" We captured another one, then took their teeth and sharpened them into daggers. ”

Old Wright also smiled: "Maybe the texture is not very good, but this is a specialty of our town." It was a technique I learned from the Inuit, and it was baked in cooked oil during the grinding process, so the toughness is actually very good. ”

Sergi received the longest dagger, and the Indians loved it. So the old fishermen gave him the best one.

Stroking the dagger, Sergi's face showed a faint throbbing, and then he gritted his teeth and said, "Old guys." We all understand your town's predicament, if you don't ask for too much. Then I'll go back and get ready to invest in a casino in your town! I want you to do the gamblers' business then. You can make a little money! ”

Gambling is not prohibited in Canada and the United States, but the government is aware of the dangers of gambling, so it stipulates that casinos cannot be set up in places with more than a certain population density, and large casinos are generally located in remote areas.

For example, the world-famous Las Vegas is located in the middle of a desert. But gamblers don't care about this, they just want a place where they can gamble, even if the journey is as difficult as learning from the west, gamblers can get there.

Qin Shiou looked at Sergy and had a good impression of him in his heart, in fact, these fishermen were not as hateful as he imagined, they were also human, but there were too many accumulated contradictions with traditional fishermen, which was full of pertinence to him.

Buck took off his sunglasses and said, "I'm in the food business, and I'll start a small bakery on the island in the future, so that everyone doesn't have to travel so far to eat fresh bread." ”

The owners of the resort fishermen have their own main business, and it is easy to help the town, for example, Buck built a bakery, that is, he sent a baker to bring a stove, and the house was some, and the compensation was tens of thousands of yuan a year, which had no impact on him.

But they did do good things, which is admirable.

On the contrary, the traditional fishermen are unable to help the town, they are also fishermen.

At the last moment, Sergi and others' assistance to the town eased the relationship between the two fishing owners, and the reason why Andrew and others hated these holiday fishermen so much in the past was not only because they did not build fishing grounds, but also because they hated the rich.

Why hate the rich? Because the traditional fishermen think that these rich people are unkind to the rich, and they are outright villains!

However, the subsequent events proved that this was not the case, and the two of them only had some misunderstandings.

Leaving the Island of Ice and Fire, the tour was over, and I was supposed to visit some fishing grounds in Labrador. But the Marine Meteorological Service said the tropical cyclone was heading north and was approaching Newfoundland waters, so they decided to return anyway to be on the safe side.

Unprecedentedly, the fishermen became so rapport that Andrew even played stud with Buck and Charco.

The scene was reassuring, but Matthew didn't organize the visit to ease their relationship.

When he finally reached St. John's, he gathered all the fishermen in the dining room on the top floor of the boat, and said, "You see, don't you, guys?" Look at what happens to the local economy when the fishing grounds collapse. Once you understand this, you should be able to understand the determination of the Ministry of Fisheries, right? Whoever spoils his fishing grounds, then believe me, he will regret it! ”

The fishermen were silent, and the last time Matthew said this, some of them were not convinced, but now they are all honest, because for for some places that depend on the sea, the collapse of the fishery is simply terrible.

Seeing that both traditional and resort fishermen were honest, Matthew King smiled with satisfaction, and the visit should have ended perfectly.

When the cruise ship stopped at St. John's Pier, there were countless ships docked on the pier, the sea was already blowing strong winds, and the tropical cyclone was cold and began to threaten after coming to the waters of Newfoundland, and a hurricane was coming.

Qin Shiou took Matthew and Parry to embark on the cruiser Seagull, and halfway through the boat, the sea breeze became stronger, and the huge raindrops 'crackled' on the glass window, like hail, and the power was amazing. (To be continued......)
