1397.The Crowd (2/10)

On Saturday, November 15th, Farewell Town held a pumpkin boat race at Shenbao Lake.

Winnie is right, this prize pool is so attractive that in half a month, a total of 400 people have signed up, covering half of Canada, and the farthest entrant is from the McLennan area of Alberta.

Of course, the father and son from the McLennan area are enthusiasts of this activity, otherwise they would have bought a third prize with the ticket plus the pumpkin boat consignment fee.

After the autumn harvest, Qin Shiou made the final production of the pumpkin boat: first, he wanted to install five circles of iron hoops on the outside of the pumpkin boat, which is the skeleton of the pumpkin boat, to prevent deformation after heavy blows, and once the pumpkin boat is deformed, it is easy to break.

Secondly, he set up two oars on the pumpkin boat, so that the people on the boat only had to paddle in the center, and their pumpkin boat was too big, and if one oar rowed left and right, it would have to be done by an adult, which was a big challenge for minors.

Powell, Shirley, Gordon, Michelle, Shaq Jr., Weiss, Little Kraken and Lawrence, eight kids and eight boats, they went to train every day after school: the first place was a cash prize of $10,000.

Because there were too many applicants, Winnie divided into groups, and men and women competed separately, so that a total of four prize pools had to be set up, which increased the burden of the competition and also increased the attractiveness of the competition.

For the increase in bonuses, Winnie didn't care, Qin Shiou's approach gave her creativity, and she then lobbied in the town to find sponsors, and later really pulled a bunch of sponsors, and the town's finance didn't need to pay for it, so she could start an event.

On Saturday morning, Qin Shiou got up and took eight children to do a fitness morning exercise to increase their strength. There are many strong enemies!

After doing everything, Qin Shiou put Shirley and Michelle's pumpkin boat on the F650 carriage and took the lead towards Shenbao Lake - the venue of this competition is on Shenbao Lake.

The F650 was followed by four pickup trucks, one transporting two pumpkin boats, which were too big to be packed separately.

Such a convoy drove mightily past. It looks quite powerful, and it takes the lead.

When he arrived at the lake, Qin Shiou looked out, and couldn't help but gasp: "Fake, there are so many people!" ”

Shenbao Lake is probably located in the northwest direction of Farewell Island, and the location of the town is exactly in the middle of the island, so from the town to Farewell Island, you have to go to the northwest, the two sides are very close, and naturally the southeast coast of Shenbao Lake is the most developed. It's because it's the closest thing to the town.

Now Qin Shiou sees that the southeast area of Shenbao Lake is full of people coming and going, many merchants set up stalls here to sell, and some trolleys are turning around, drinks, food, snacks, and even people are selling insurance and real estate here.

Don't believe the insurance company that this industry is very mature in foreign countries, and there is no need for salesmen to run sales, just wait for customers to come to the door, as far as Qin Shiou knows, Canada's insurance industry is very developed. But the competition is also fierce.

Therefore, the salesman of the insurance company may not have to run to the customer's door to sell. But you have to call. And the reason why they don't come to the door is not out of moral considerations, but because the residential areas in Canada are very scattered, and if you drive to the door, you can't get the gas cost alone.

This is a digression, in short, the southeast shore of Shenbao Lake has now been occupied by traders. At the edge of the lake, there are pumpkin boats, large and small.

Qin Shiou and Iverson carried Shirley's 'Princess Lu' down, packed it up, put on the baby carrier, and stuffed the little girl into it, like a kangaroo.

The little girl has a plastic pacifier in her mouth. Looking at the people around her curiously, suddenly she struggled restlessly, stretched out her arms and shouted: "Baba, Mama, Mama, Mama!" ”

Qin Shiou turned his head to take a look and saw Winnie in an OL suit leading his subordinates to patrol.

Many people took pictures of Winnie, and today the female mayor wore a black OL suit, which is the kind of small suit and high-waisted pants that match, which looks slim and delicate, and her legs are more slender, and the top is a white thick shirt, which makes Shuangfeng look more and more straight.

In this way, she naturally became the most high-profile existence on the scene, after Winnie appeared, Qin Shiou heard the voices of tourists or contestants around her discussing her more than once, and someone even walked up to him and said directly: "Wow, this female mayor is so hot!" ”

Not only is it hot, Winnie also wears a pair of rimless glasses, and her hair is tied into a bun at the back of her head, which makes her whole body full of intellectual atmosphere.

The charm of a mature woman and the aura of execution make it a killer for men!

Qin Shiou smiled: "Yes, it's very hot, but her personality is gentle as water." ”

The man shook his head with envy on his face: "I don't know which shitty bastard can marry her!" ”

Hearing this, Qin Shiou didn't know whether he should be angry or happy, because he was the 'dog's day'.

The little girl struggled vigorously, Qin Shiou rubbed the small short hair on the top of her head, and took her to the side area.

Winnie was too busy to touch the ground, and he didn't want to bother her anymore.

Qin Shiou did not pay the sponsorship money in vain, there is a big hot air balloon floating above Shenbao Lake, which is naturally the one in the fishing ground, and there is a propaganda tape hanging below it, which reads: Daqin Seafood wishes the athletes their favorite results.

In addition, the town also set up a promotional vehicle, which was a van, with the logo and slogan of Daqin Seafood on one side and the promotion of other sponsors on the other. And those sales vehicles that entered the site to sell things were required to hang a banner with the names of the major sponsors, and the town carried out all-round publicity.

Time passes, the weather is warm, the sun is warm and hanging in the air, the wind is a little strong today, but the waves on Shenbao Lake are not big, only small waves are floating on the shore one after another.

This is Qin Shiou's credit, he knows best how much Winnie has paid for this competition, so he can't let the weather ruin this game, and directly released the Eight Seagod Consciousness, almost controlling the surface of Shenbao Lake, and maintaining the water surface without big waves.

Some people noticed this abnormal scene and said that the wind is not small today and the waves are not big, but no one delves into it, and they all casually put this topic to the back of their minds.

From 10 o'clock, the contestants began to gather to draw numbers, and the competition was divided into two groups, men's and women's, and there were also singles and two-person relay races, so that there were four events in total.

Most of the teenagers participating in the competition are boys and relatively few girls, only about 100 people, but the single race and relay race are allowed to be re-registered, so there are many rounds to be held in this way. (To be continued......)
