1431.Xiong Da is very well-behaved (1/5)
In the middle of the night, the Melon Princess entered the harbor of Attu Island, one of Greenland's eight ice-free ports and the country's northernmost ice-free port.
Originally, Qin Shiou wanted to drive the Melon Princess directly into the waters of the Arctic Circle, and then watch the aurora on the boat, but when he was holding his daughter-in-law with his left hand and his daughter with his right hand, he must have been so cool.
But after seeing the ice floe at sea, he was honest, this is just an ice floe and not an iceberg, he can use the Poseidon consciousness to push it away, if he encounters an iceberg, then the Poseidon consciousness will also have to be blind.
So the best option now is for the boat to dock at Attu Island, and Qin Shiou and Winnie rush from the land to the ice fields of the Frederick region, which is a sacred place to watch the Northern Lights.
Despite its name, Greenland is actually very large, with an area of 2.16 million square kilometers, nearly a quarter of China's area and one-fifth of Europe's area.
Most of the country's territory is within the Arctic Circle, where polar days and nights are common, and the rest of the planet does not have a "sunrise and sunset" routine that cannot be practiced in Greenland, which has its own set of rules of life.
Attu Island has not yet entered the Arctic Circle, and is not in the polar night state now, but the daytime is very short, it will be dark at three o'clock in the afternoon, and now it is not until six o'clock in the evening, and it is already dark and you can't see anything clearly.
Shaq and the port for radio docking, the Melon Princess carefully entered the dock to stop the ship, two men in thick cotton coats came up to check, they are customs people, mainly to check whether there is any smuggling, and also check the quarantine certificates of tigers, leopards, bears and wolves.
Brother Mink and Sister Mink did not apply for a quarantine certificate because they could not show their faces, and the two little guys became black households. Qin Shiou stuffed them in his pocket, and the two little ones hugged quietly to keep warm. It's as if he knows he can't be discovered.
One of the inspectors was stunned when he saw Xiong Da's quarantine certificate and said, "You go to sea." Still with a bear? ”
Qin Shiou shrugged and said, "Man, I'm used to bringing all my belongings. ”
Another inspector burst out laughing and said, "It's a huge world, it's a lot of wonders." ”
Tigers, leopards, bears and wolves can go ashore and they have pet licenses with a complete record of the epidemic they have carried out.
Greenland is one of the few regions in the world where large pets are allowed ashore, and Canada is the other one, and the unifying feature of the two regions is that the land is sparsely populated. Although, of course, the beasts were allowed to come ashore. However, they are not allowed to enter the city, and they need to be supervised by their owners at all times.
Attu Island has no urban area, although it has a good seaport, but it has not been developed, this small island is next to Greenland, called 'Island', which can be regarded as an extension of Greenland, connected to the land by a bridge.
Qin Shiou booked a hotel in advance, and he directly chartered the hotel, one of the two largest hotels on Attu Island. There are only thirty rooms......
The hotels in these areas are family hotels, usually run by elderly couples who are too old to go to sea. I have no other means of livelihood, and I have lived in these areas all my life and do not want to leave. Just open a hotel, and make some money with each order.
The hostel is not far from the port. Qin Shiou and his entourage creaked into the small building with a thick layer of snow, and an old man with silver hair walked out with a smile on his face and said, "Is it Captain Qin from St. Johns?" Welcome, welcome - holy-shit. I must be so old and dizzy, how can there be a bear here? ”
Qin Shiou smiled weakly: "Boss, didn't I say it on the phone, I will bring pets." ”
The old man was dumbfounded: "Don't tell me that your pet is a bear?!" ”
Qin Shiou shrugged his shoulders shyly and said, "Actually, it's not my pet, it's my child, it's very well-behaved, come to Xiongda, and say hello to grandpa." ”
Xiong Da squatted down, raised his fat paw and shook it, opened his mouth and wanted to roar, but Qin Daguan decisively pressed the mouth that had just opened and waved his hand, he felt that if Xiong Da still opened his mouth and roared, the old man would pee his pants.
Winnie smiled in the sweet stewardess style and said, "Sir, we have contracted your hotel, I think you have already felt the kindness of our good boy, right?" It should be allowed in the house, right? ”
Qin Shiou thought that the old man would refuse, after all, the feeling that the bear gave people was too terrible, especially the bear Dahu who ate Haisai, and now he is super fat, he is simply Yao Ming among the bears.
He was ready, and if the old man kept refusing, then he would throw money at it until he was willing to accept it.
As a result, Winnie's voice fell, and the old man smiled: "Come on, my God, my wife likes cute bears the most, she has always wanted to raise a polar bear, of course it is impossible, but it is not bad to meet a brown bear, isn't it?" ”
This turned out to be even better, a group of people entered the house, the temperature suddenly rose, and the tiger and leopard struggled to take off their down jackets.
The boss divided the room, and when he turned around, he saw the tigers, leopards, bears and wolves, and couldn't help but exclaim: "God, you brought not only a bear, but also three dogs?" You're not from the circus, are you? ”
Winnie smiled sweetly, "These are all our good boys." ”
An old lady with gray hair came downstairs from behind, and the old man shouted, "Look, my dear, who are our guests this time?" ”
Although Xiong Da is not afraid of the cold, Winnie still gave it a towel and a big fur hat, so this guy now looks like a large cotton doll.
The old lady laughed happily and beckoned, "Hey, cute little bear." ”
When Xiong Da saw the old lady beckoning, he also raised his paw in response, and grinned back, as if smiling.
Winnie sighed, quickly rummaged through her pockets to find a piece of pastry and stuffed it into the bear's mouth, which she learned from the bottlenose dolphins, smiled and asked for food, and if she didn't give it, she couldn't do it.
The old lady is different from ordinary people, she is not afraid of Xiong Da, she is very enthusiastic about it, and after getting permission, she starts to pinch Xiong Da's fat face.
Qin Shiou took a look, he felt that if Xiong Da didn't get mad, now this stupid appearance with fat on his face and fat all over his body did not look terrifying, it was very funny.
After cleaning up, Qin Shiou saw that it was still early, so he contacted the fishermen to go to the bar for a drink.
The only pastime in such a place was to drink in the bar, or hide in the hotel and watch soap operas, which he thought was better than drinking, which had been really stuffy in the cabin before.
There are more than a dozen bars on Attu Island, large and small, which is characteristic of all harbours, and the fishermen are the ones who can't live without the wine.
Qin Shiou chose a bar closest to the hotel, then took the fisherman and walked in. (To be continued......)
