Hong Tao followed the customs of the locals and also prepared several gifts, giving Zhou Xiaoli a set of Chinese food white case tools, with 2 different sizes of boards and 3 sets of rolling pins; What was given to Mrs. Burcock was a Chinese-style cardigan cotton top, which was originally bought for Zhou Xiaoli, but the number was much larger, and Zhou Xiaoli wore the same coat as the coat, but it was just right for Mrs. Burcock; Old Gale got a cloud of smoke that Hong Tao brought from China; Each of the two children has a set of woolen hats and gloves.

These things were all bought at Pacific Place, only the cloud smoke was bought by Hong Tao from the airport in Japan, and he has not been willing to smoke it, if it wasn't for the old Gale promised to take him to shoot the target, he would definitely not have sent it away. This is not because of how expensive this cigarette is, but because you can't buy foreign cigarettes in Canada at all, there are all Canadian-made cigarettes, the taste is too light, and the price is very expensive, and the most common one is about 6 Canadian dollars a box, which is too tricky.

Correspondingly, Hong Tao also received a lot of gifts, including a Seiko waterproof watch from Zhou Xiaoli and a deerskin wallet from Mrs. Burcock, among which Old Gail's gift was the most satisfactory, it was a hunting belt, the leather was very thick, not only there was a place for bullets on it, but also a sheathed knife, which was no longer than a palm, and was extremely sharp.

"This is Joe's first horned deerskin he hunted, and this knife is also made by hand, and they have been kept in the pantry all these years, and every year I take them out for oil and maintenance, and now they are yours, and you have brought joy to Joan and Bloom, and you have made me feel like I have gone back to the past, thank you and Miss Yoko." Old Gale still had his big pipe in his mouth, but his tone and expression were not so heavy, and it was clear that the old man had figured out something, abandoned something, and had something he wanted to pursue.

"Soldier, you should be ready!" Early the next morning, when Hong Tao arrived at Old Gail's house at the agreed time, the old man was sitting in an unusually tall Chevrolet pickup truck. When he saw Hong Tao, he raised his wrist and looked at his watch, making sure that Hong Tao was not late, so he bared his teeth and smiled.

"Mr. Captain, you are very handsome today, especially this hat, what a spirit." Hong Tao is really not a sycophant, today's old Gail is no longer the old man at home wearing a checkered shirt and jeans, he wears a whole body of earthy gray clothes, and a pair of high-waisted combat boots, which is very, very similar to a military uniform, and his cowboy hat is also tied with a knot with a leather strip, with a big beard, looking like a tough guy in the movie.

"I'm more handsome in a Navy uniform, but it's a pity that you're a little late, and we veterans have a big parade on Thanksgiving, and I usually walk in the first row." The old man was not modest at all, and put gold on his face.

"Alright, let's go!" Old Gale seemed to be using this car as a warship, and gave an order before starting.

After the car out of the residential area, and go to the same highway as the city, but the direction is just the opposite, it should be driving north, today's highway is a little normal, from time to time you can see the car, most of the people are seated in it, it is estimated that the locals are taking a large family out of the city to play, but Hong Tao is very puzzled, what can you play on this snowy day?

"Mr. Captain, what do the young people here do in winter?" Hong Tao saw that Old Gail didn't seem to understand what he meant, and added: "What are they playing?" ”

"Oh, there are so many things to play, such as hunting, skiing, skating, fishing, traveling, basketball, but the most popular thing is ice hockey, do you know ice hockey?" Old Gale said a whole bunch of winter sports.

"I can skate a little, I haven't played hockey." Hong Tao dared to say that he skated well in China, but after seeing Zhou Xiaoli's skating skills, he only dared to say that he could skate, and when he arrived at Old Gale, he automatically lowered it by one level.

"It's a pity, ice hockey is a men's sport, basketball is too soft in comparison, there is a game of the Maple Leafs the day after tomorrow, I want to take the children to the stadium to watch the game, how about it, I want to find a way to get two tickets for you and Yoko, do you want to go and see it?" Old Gale seemed very proud when he talked about the tickets.

"If it's not too much trouble, of course." Hong Tao didn't think too much about it.

"We're here, wait." After a short drive, Old Gale got off the highway and walked 2 kilometers along a road completely submerged in the woods, then turned into a fork in the road and stopped at a barbed wire gate.

"Is this private land?" Hong Tao didn't understand anything else, but he saw the sign hanging on the barbed wire clearly, and he couldn't see it if he didn't want to, the sign was as big as a tabletop, and there was a picture of a pistol firing under the text, which was very deterrent.

"It's a private club, it's all veterans, it's not open to the public." Old Gale said as he stepped on the gas pedal again, and the barbed wire gate had opened automatically, and when their car entered, it closed again.

Inside the gate was still woods, but after turning a big corner, Hong Tao was not calm, for he heard the sound of gunshots, some short and crisp, some dull and continuous, and this sound was like a woman's moan, which immediately burned the man's blood.

After turning another corner, the eyes suddenly opened up, and there were many people standing under a row of simple sheds, which seemed to have football fields on each side, and many square haystacks were stacked on the left field very casually.

"Hey...... Captain Gail, it's been a long time since I've seen you, and you're finally willing to get out of your volute, who is this lad? Could it be Joan's boyfriend? As soon as the car stopped, the two of them opened the doors on both sides, and Hong Tao was a big fat man with a thicker beard than old Gail, and he stared at Hong Tao up and down, left and right.

"Don't harass him, first mate, he knows Chinese kung fu and has a bad temper like mine, watch your chin." Old Gail hugged a tall, thin old man on his side, then turned back and shouted at him.

"Chinese? I don't like the Chinese, but I like their food, welcome, Chinese boy, my name is Pavlovich, you call me Pavey. The fat old man stretched out his fat hand, shook Hong Tao, and pulled Hong Tao off the car seat by the way.

"Hello Pavi, my surname is Hong, Hong Tao." Although the fat old man was very rude, Hong Tao didn't dare to say anything, that guy was at least 1.9 meters tall, more than 200 pounds, and he really didn't know Chinese kung fu.

"Let's go, you're the captain's guest, and I'm curious, how did you get the captain out of that little room of his?" The fat old man put his arm on Hong Tao's shoulder like a child, and followed old Gail and the tall thin man in front of him to the shed.

Old Gale was apparently a regular customer here, and most of them knew him, and it seemed that he was of a fairly high position, and several people saluted him. On the contrary, the people here are not very enthusiastic about Hong Tao's face, most of them don't see it, and a small number of people are staring at Hong Tao, given that they are at least holding a pistol in their hands, Hong Tao doesn't dare to look back, fortunately, there is a fat old man next to him, if Hong Tao is alone, it is estimated that his legs will tremble.

"Hong, this is Pixar, he's a damn Armyman, but his marksmanship is very good, and he's the master here, he's promised to let you train here, the fat guy next to you is my first mate, he's terrible marksmanship, but he's good at fishing, you can teach him a lesson on the water when you have time, lest he always brag to us, you should bring the picture, so he can be honest all day." Seeing that Hong Tao was a little nervous, Old Gail first introduced the boss here to Hong Tao.

"This is Hong, now my neighbor, he is very good at fishing, but unfortunately he didn't bring a photo to show you, he is the champion of fishing tournaments in China and Japan, he is a good boy, but unfortunately he can't shoot, the reason you know, this can't be blamed on him, but if you are a neighbor with me and can't shoot, then we have a lot of responsibility, what do you think?" Old Gale said as he opened the long iron box he had brought down from the pickup compartment.
