29. Canaries in the ocean
Beluga whale, the most delicate canary in the sea.
This kind of mild-mannered big guy generally lives in the waters of Europe, Alaska and Canada, and Qin Shiou didn't know that Farewell Island also had them.
You know, as long as the area where beluga whales are concentrated, it is almost all whale watching mecca, such as the lower St. Lawrence River in eastern Canada and the Churchill River estuary in western Hudson Bay.
For fishermen, beluga whales are never prey or rivals, they are similar to dolphins, simple and gentle personalities, extremely high intelligence, strong communication and social desire, since their discovery in the late eighteenth century, there have been stories of beluga whales befriending fishermen.
And the reason why beluga whales are called canaries is because they are the best "ventriloquist" experts in the fish kingdom, and they can make hundreds of sounds, and the sounds they produce are varied.
The little beluga whale opened its short mouth and made a 'whine' sound similar to the whistle of a passenger ship, and it was very curious when it saw the motorboat for the first time, and after it surfaced, it happily followed.
Qin Shiou breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that it was a small white whale that appeared, if a tiger shark, man-eating shark or something like a big guy came out, then he would have to take a lot of trouble to clean them up.
Seeing the little white whale following curiously, Qin Shiou sometimes accelerated and sometimes turned in circles, teasing the little white whale to play.
The little beluga whale was a little clumsy fluttering in the sea water chasing after it, and when it heard the motor of the motorboat, it even imitated the cry: "Boom...... Boom ......"
Qin Shiou was attracted by the cuteness of this little white whale, but he teased for a while, and suddenly heard a whistle-like 'whine' sound from the little white whale when it first appeared in the distance.
Hearing this, the little white whale struggled its head out of the sea, looked at it, and then dived into the water and swam away.
Qin Shiou's Seagod Consciousness followed, and it turned out that there was an adult beluga whale not far away, and this little beluga whale should have followed its mother out to hunt.
Out of affection, Qin Shiou injected the Poseidon energy into the body of the little white whale, and then reluctantly left.
Qin Shiou really wants to bring the baby beluga back to the fishing ground to be a pet, but for the beluga mother, this is a very cruel thing, he will not do it, the number of beluga whales is getting smaller and smaller, and he needs to protect this lovely life.
Since the 17th century, whalers have gone on a killing spree due to the high profits of whaling, resulting in a sharp decline in the number of beluga whales.
What is even more tragic is that the ecological environment of beluga whales has been destroyed and damaged, so that it has been harmed by a series of toxic substances, such as polychlorinated biphenyls, DDT and carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons benzene intercaledicin, which has caused many beluga whales to be severely damaged and die in batches.
Bidding farewell to the little white whale, Qin Shiou lost the mind to continue playing, so he hurried back to the fishing dock.
A group of children stayed on the dock, pointing around another motorboat, Qin Shiou got off the motorboat and smiled at Shaq: "Take turns to let the children sit on it and play." โ
The children let out a cheer, and Xiaosha looked at Shaq pitifully, and the latter said in embarrassment: "The splashing sea water is a little cold, and it is easy for the children to get sick." โ
The little guys, led by Xiaosha, shouted: "Don't be afraid, we are not afraid!"
Qin Shiou said with a smile: "It's okay to open slowly, besides, do you want your children to be flowers in the greenhouse, or are you proud and green pines?" โ
Shaq stopped talking, and started the motorboat to take the children for a walk.
Everything was delivered, Qin Shiou personally went over to count them, and he paid without any problems, spending more than 800,000 Canadian dollars at one time.
However, in this way, in addition to the fishing grounds and fry, the fishing grounds are basically opened.
I took a few photos of myself riding a motorboat and posted it in the group space, and a group of guys made a fuss again.
Mao Weilong: "Birds and beasts, your little days are getting more and more comfortable, when will you buy a yacht?" Dude, I'm going to have a good time with you then. โ
Chen Lei: "Damn, this motorboat seems to be very awesome, birds and beasts, honestly, is this yours or yours?" โ
Song Xuemei: "Please don't show off your wealth, what should we do if we are urban white-collar workers?" I'm still worried about next month's rent, and I think I'm going to live on the street. โ
Zhong Dajun immediately came out: "Xuemei, don't pay the rent, come and live with me, buddies welcome you." โ
Ma Jin made a lustful expression and replied, "It's all five limbs facing the sky." โ
"Die!" Several female comrades denounced Ma Jin together, and of course, Zhong Dajun was even scolded for being a bloody squirt.
Qin Shiou smiled and participated in a few words, and then the QQ avatar in the lower right corner of the computer jumped, and he clicked on it to see that it was his brother Qin Peng from his hometown: "Poultry beast, buddy, I still have half a month to get married, can you come back?" Also, why can't you get through on the phone? โ
Qin Peng is Qin Shiou's youngest hair, and the two can be said to be brothers who grew up wearing a pair of pants, from elementary school to high school, they are in the same school and a class, they have a similar temper and play very well.
In fact, Qin Shiou has relatively few friends, to put it mildly, he is a bit self-centered, and his temper is relatively big, Qin Peng is naturally good-tempered, and he always laughs, so there are many peers in a village, and Qin Peng has the best time with him.
Qin Peng's academic performance is not very good, he dropped out of school to work before finishing high school, he likes mechanical vehicles and the like, and now he has opened a small car repair shop in his hometown.
Qin Shiou is not at home, only his old parents are at home, Qin Peng has always helped take care of it, he goes to help when he is busy with farm work, and he sends a cake on his birthday.
Therefore, seeing his message, Qin Shiou immediately replied: "Go, I will definitely go, and I will also be your best man and leave a place for me." โ
Qin Peng didn't reply after that, Qin Shiou sent the phone number again, he was still a little guilty about this, he went to Canada to change the global communication, and he hadn't told the phone number to sรน this little brother.
Unknowingly, Qin Shiou has been in Canada for nearly a month, he came in early April, and now it is almost the end of April, not many days before Qin Peng's wedding, so he hurriedly called Auerbach to help book a plane ticket.
The fishing boat hadn't been bought yet, and Qin Shiou had nothing to do, so he decided to apply for a driver's license the next day and apply for a gun license by the way.
It's very simple to apply for a driver's license, find a driving test company, and Qin Shiou can send his information and six hundred yuan to it.
The driver's license test in Canada is relatively stricter, but this strictness is when the test is taken, during the driving practice, because almost every household has a car, many people will drive and then come to the driver's license test, so as long as you learn enough five class hours, you are allowed to refer to it.
It will be more troublesome to apply for a gun license.
First, Qin Shiou submitted an application form, and then went to an officially designated psychiatric hospital for a psychological examination.
And that's not all, he has to go through three levels of vetting by the St. John's Police Department, the Newfoundland State Police Department and the National Bureau of Investigation to make sure that he has no criminal record, and after applying for a gun license, the local police department will check whether you have alcoholism, quarrels with neighbors, domestic violence, etc.
The process takes about 2 months, and once there is no problem, you can go to the police station to get a gun license and a gun purchase permit.
After getting these, Qin Shiou had to buy a gun within 30 days, and after buying a gun, he had to go to the police station to register the gun number within 72 hours.
Although he felt troublesome, Qin Shiou could only cooperate, after all, in the Celestial Empire, no matter how obedient you are, you can't get a gun, and in his opinion, a man who has not played with a gun is incomplete.
