241. Nurse Nimitz

Because it took some time to rescue Bush Jr., it would be a little late to go to sea again, and Qin Shiou couldn't rest assured that this little guy wouldn't be able to do so, so he simply didn't go to sea that day, and let Shaq, the sea monster and Iverson go to sea on their own.

In this way, he stayed on the yacht to take care of Bush Jr., and by the way, he returned the bluefin tuna to the Daqin fishing grounds.

As he had guessed, the bluefin tuna were not used to staying in the unfamiliar Daqin fishing grounds, but when they were hungry and preyed on the cod, herring, and arctic shrimp, they immediately fell in love with it.

The fish and shrimp transformed by the energy of the sea god taste far better than ordinary fish and shrimp, and the fish and shrimp resources in the fishery are extremely rich, and there is no need to consider the pressure of survival when living here.

In this way, how can a school of bluefin tuna still leave the fishing grounds?

Qin Shiou injected Poseidon energy into Bush several times, so that the little bald eagle miraculously recovered its vitality after a day's rest.

Of course, it can't be as active as it was when it was healthy, but it can already eat some torn fish on its own, which means it can survive at all.

In the afternoon, Qin Shiou saw that Bush Jr. was gradually recovering and was about to go ashore for a walk, when he happened to meet James Sr. repairing a small boat.

Knowing that Qin Shiou wanted to go around the harbor town, Old James boldly said that he wanted to be his tour guide.

On the road, old James first introduced Gloucester, and said: "This small city has existed for almost four hundred years, the size and population of the city have hardly changed, fishing was and is still the pillar industry here, this is a small city that has stopped in time." ”

Old James's last words were the city slogan of Port Gloucester, and Qin Shiou saw signs in several places that read the phrase "where-the-past-is-". It translates to "time stops here".

There are no attractions in the small fishing port, and old James focused on introducing him to the statue that Qin Shiou had seen yesterday - the person next to the steering wheel. Built in 1923 for the 300th anniversary of Gloucester, the statue is the most famous sculpture in the region and its landmark.

On the balustrade near the Atlantic Ocean next to the sculpture, a dozen or so stone monuments are erected. It is inscribed with names similar to those of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, D.C., and behind each name is the life of a Gloucester fisherman who died in the ocean.

Looking at these stone tablets, Old James had a solemn expression and said, "Qin, you rich people may just turn the ocean into a resort and leisure place and a source of delicious seafood. But for us. The sea is a fearful father, not a loving mother. ”

Qin Shiou went to look at the stele, the most conspicuous of which was built in 1879, when 249 fishermen and 29 boats were lost in a storm that year.

Leave these stelatures and continue along the coastline to see another iconic statue of the town. "Memorial Statue of a Fisherman's Wife". This statue echoes the "man at the helm" and has great significance.

When walking on the road, Mao Weilong called Qin Shiou, saying that the tour group that went to Farewell Town to inspect was back, and gave Farewell Island a very high evaluation, which can be rated as a 5A-level foreign tourist spot, and I believe that the first batch of tourists will set off in a few days, so it is best for him to go to the tour group to be familiar. There are quite a few beautiful women in it.

Qin Shiou said that I can't go to see our compatriots, because I will be fishing in the United States, and I will have to go back for at least ten days and half a month.

After making the call. Old James took Qin Shiou to one of the most famous tourist spots in the town, which was Half-Moon Beach.

This sandy beach is not large, with an estimated coastline of less than a kilometer, but the environment is extremely beautiful.

Green trees and blue sky, blue sea and golden beach, clean sand like a half-moon arching the bay, the sea water rises and falls on the beach and retreats. It's much more beautiful than the beaches of Bali and Hawaii.

At the first glance of this beach, Qin Shiou fell in love with it. He just didn't go around with old James. Barefoot on the beach, he found a reef and sat down, and stayed quietly for half an afternoon.

In the evening. Qin Shiou bought some fried meat, grilled fish and other foods at the fisherman's fast food restaurant on the shore, and when he returned to the Seagull, he happened to see the large warship Nimitz flying into the cabin.

This made him a little nervous, and he hurriedly ran inside, because Nimitz had been injured by the golden eagle in the first place, so he had always been full of hatred for eagles.

During the day, Qin Shiou noticed that he kept looking at Bush Jr. with sharp eyes, but Qin Shiou was in the town at that time, and Nimitz didn't dare to do it.

Running to the door, Qin Shiou saw that Nimitz really wanted to do something wrong to Bush Jr., and the feathers on his body exploded, which was a signal that he was going to attack.

On the sofa, tigers and leopards were lazily lying on their stomachs, wagging their tails to watch the excitement. They were also very dissatisfied with Bush Jr., and Qin Shiou did not play with them all day, and they blamed Bush Jr. for the reason.

Bush Jr. squatted on the wood flour, his eyes wide open and tilted his head to look at Nimitz, and his eyes looked down at himself, and there seemed to be doubts brewing in his dark little eyes.

Speaking of which, Bush Jr., whose grayish-brown feathers are now not like bald eagles, is a bit like the chicks of a large frigate bird like Nimitz, and the female of a large frigate bird, such as Nimitz, has a rusty brown feathers instead of pure black.

Nimitz quacked, spreading his wings in an attacking stance. When Bush Jr. heard its cry, he also quacked twice, got up, and staggered towards Nimitz.

Qin Shiou was just about to stop it, but Nimitz didn't attack, and when he saw Bush Jr. rushing towards him, he quickly jumped back.

As a result, the claws of the big warship bird were not strong enough, and this jump was very sad and fell down, which was really embarrassing.

The Nimitz wolf's fluttering wings got up, and Bush Jr. pounced on it, quacking in his mouth, and his little head burrowed into Nimitz's arms.

It is estimated that Nimitz was stunned, it originally wanted to kill this little eagle, but what the hell did the other party cling to himself so much?

Nimitz flapped his wings vigorously and stretched his neck to make a ferocious 'quack' sound, and Bush Jr. also 'quacked', the sound was a bit similar, still rubbing against Nimitz, and Nimitz was at a loss.

Qin Shiou laughed, Bush Jr. is too small, maybe a little natural, and he actually regarded Nimitz as his mother, which is undoubtedly the bird's reaction when he finds the mother bird.

Nimitz was rubbed around by Bush Jr., it can't run if it wants to, the cabin space is small and can't spread its wings to fly, if you want to run with its legs, the big frigate bird with insufficient leg strength can't outrun the bald eagle chicks......

Bald eagles have much more powerful talons, their soles are as rough as sandpaper, they can catch large fish weighing tens of kilograms on the water, and they can run and jump in the jungle chasing squirrels.

Therefore, even if Bush Jr. is just a young eagle, Nimitz can still chase him honestly.

Nimitz fled a few steps and couldn't run away and then stopped unhappily, Bush Jr. drilled under its wings, whispering 'cooing' in his mouth, and after getting in, he didn't come out again, and the nest that Qin Shiou built for him with wood powder was a waste.

The tiger and the leopard were bored when they saw that they couldn't fight, and licked the hair on their heads with their tongues, don't think they love to be clean, this is the Labrador who used saliva to wet their hair with saliva to dissipate heat from each other.

Qin Shiou smiled and went up and touched the little guys one by one, and also pulled Nimitz's wings and touched Bush Jr., but Bush Jr. didn't buy it and shrank under Nimitz's wings again.

Nimitz seemed to resign himself to his fate, squatting on the ground dejectedly, not rejecting Bush's affectionate behavior.

In the evening, Charles and others came to Qin Shiou and asked him why he didn't go fishing today, Qin Shiou said I have to take a break, it is enough for them to go to sea with Shaq.

This made Charles and his party very envious, they went out to sea to fish to survive, and Qin Shiou did it for fun, the gap was too big.

Before leaving, Charles and the others asked Qin Shiou about the sea area where he would go tomorrow, Qin Shiou didn't play any mystery, and directly said that he would go to George Shoal.

With this answer, Charles and a few fishermen wanted to borrow the Snowball's ice tank to stock up on some ice. Because their fishing boats could not keep the ice for two days and two nights, they had to return to Hong Kong every day, which was a waste of fuel money, and they needed 400 yuan of diesel fuel to come and go.

The Snowball, on the other hand, is made of polyurethane rigid foam and can store ice for more than five days.

In this way, as long as the ice can be replenished from the Snowball, Charles and his party will not have to return every day.

Subsequently, Shaq and the others also returned. (To be continued)
