Today is not a rest day, so the handover is very fast, Qin Shiou's side is not short of money, the landlord's side is in a hurry to make a move, the two sides hit it off, Qin Shiou handed over the house purchase work to Auerbach, and he went to clean up the house.

One of the things he values about this house is that the interior of the house is luxurious but restrained, and Winnie likes this style, which can be used directly without decoration.

So, this house can be moved in with your bags, just change the quilt and kitchen utensils.

Zhong Dajun and Mao Weilong helped Qin Shiou clean up the house, and a group of fishermen also rushed to help, cleaning up was simple and fast, the focus was on cleaning, and putting some useless things and unused things at the door.

The small building is not a residential area surrounded by a wall, but a single-family apartment, with the street at the door, but not the main road, so that it will not be very noisy, and it can be regarded as a quiet place.

Qin Shiou folded the bedding and put it in a box, with label paper on it, and the space quilt was priced at ten Canadian dollars, writing: The bedding is clean and used less.

In addition, there are those brand-new looking tableware, which he also packed and put at the door, and the price of label paper is very low, the most expensive multi-purpose oven is only 50 yuan, and if it is brand new, it will cost at least 1,000 yuan.

Zhong Dajun asked strangely, "Why don't you sell second-hand?" With such a low price, you might as well throw it away as garbage. ”

Qin Shiou smiled: "This is selling second-hand, if you want to find a specialized second-hand consignee, then I'm sorry, St. John's doesn't, only those big cities in Toronto have." These second-hand items are placed at the door and disposed of at a low price, mainly for the convenience of some low-income people. When they find the right one, they will buy it back and use it. ”

Mao Weilong also explained to him: "Lao Jia is different from us Chinese, sometimes he doesn't want face. Sometimes you have to save face. In terms of second-hand items, unless they are very much needed. Otherwise, they generally buy new ones, and they don't have the concept of saving money to live, and these people are really wasteful. ”

For Canadians, the obsolete daily necessities are more troublesome to dispose of, and if they are handed over to the state for disposal, it will cost money and waste disposal costs. Therefore, it is generally sold at the door, one is to generate income, and the other is to facilitate people in need. The third is to save money.

If no one buys it, it is usually sent to a store designated by the charity, where they pick what they think is useful to sell, and the money from the sale is used for charity work.

The things that Qin Shiou put out are basically good goods, and the bedding and the like are brand new, according to the landlord, no one has used them yet, but it is impossible for him to use second-hand bedding for Winnie and the child, let alone second-hand tableware. So they all have to be disposed of.

He basically believed the landlord's words, he didn't dare to guarantee whether the bedding had been used, but it should not have been washed, and the space could be seen to be different before and after washing.

Appliances such as washing machines and refrigerators were also taken out. Some of them are high-power, and Qin Shiou has to replace them with environmentally friendly electrical appliances to prevent excessive radiation from affecting Winnie and the child's body.

Zhong Dajun watched as these brand-new appliances were labeled as cheap and thrown outside. With a painful expression on his face, he sighed, "I'm not afraid of your jokes." Anyway, what I'm thinking now is****** why did I encounter such a good thing in China? These washing machine refrigerators are so high-end. It costs tens of thousands of dollars to put it in China, right? Just sell it for a few hundred dollars? ”

Qin Shiou patted him on the shoulder and said, "Hey, it's convenient for those who need it." Besides, what's the joke about that? You will make money later, and you will have the same attitude when dealing with second-hand goods. ”

Zhong Dajun shook his head and sighed: "Then how rich do I have to be like this?" ”

Soon some people were attracted by the daily necessities outside the apartment, and the first couple to buy were white couples, who immediately paid for Zhong Dajun next to them after seeing appliances such as refrigerators, washing machines, microwave ovens, juicers and electric ovens.

Qin Shiou saw that although the couple was white, their complexion was slightly darker, their facial contours were different from those of the white people seen everywhere in St. John's, and their eyes and hair were also black, so he asked, "Excuse me, are you Syrian?" ”

The man looked at him vigilantly and said, "Sir, we are legal immigrants. ”

This is equivalent to acquiescing to being Syrian, Qin Shiou smiled kindly, and said: "St. John's has an aid project, if you are Syrian immigrants within a year, you can enjoy a 50% discount on the purchase of second-hand supplies, as long as you pay half of the money on the label." ”

Syria is now in civil strife, hundreds of thousands of refugees are flocking to the border, and the United States and Europe have been negotiating how to solve the migration problem. But the US imperialists are very good at fooling the younger brothers, which will be shameless and directly say that they do not accept refugees. Canada followed in the footsteps of Big Brother, and they did not accept it either, but liberalized the conditions for Syrian immigrants.

The Syrian couple is supposed to have emigrated temporarily, they don't have much money, because of the civil strife and war, their assets are frozen in the country and they can't take them out. Some Canadian provinces have developed preferential policies for Syrian immigrants, and many private organizations have participated, such as the Trans-Newfoundland Fisheries Union.

The man smiled awkwardly, and after paying, he fell silent, as if his pride had been hurt. But he didn't refuse, but there was a faint relaxed expression on his face, obviously he didn't have much money, even if he bought these second-hand daily necessities at a low price, it was quite difficult.

Qin Shiou helped him find a moving company, moved these electrical appliances and furniture, the man hugged him and thanked him, and then became interested in talking, asking them where they were immigrants.

Qin Shiou said that he came from China, and the Syrian couple showed envious expressions on their faces, and the man said: "China, I have been there, I am doing railway projects, and I have been to your country for inspection." You are very powerful, such a big country, so many people, but there are no internal wars, conflicts of faith, your leadership is very powerful. ”

Zhong Dajun couldn't understand the man's vague English accent, so he asked Mao Weilong. After Mao Weilong translated for him, he smiled bitterly and said, "Come on, our party and leaders are still envied by foreigners?" If I go back and tell my buddies, they'll call me. ”

Before coming to St. John's, Qin Shiou also complained a lot in his domestic life, especially the crazy housing prices and medical problems. However, after going abroad, I found that among the immigrants, the situation of the Chinese is still relatively good. Chinese immigrants are in pursuit of a better life and environment, while immigrants from some countries have to emigrate, and they cannot survive in their countries.

After four or five years of hard work abroad, Qin Shiou has matured a lot and no longer evaluates state power and political parties without authorization. However, when it comes to maintaining stability, it is true that there is no comparison with China in the world. (To be continued.) )
