    Auerbach brought a camera, and he photographed "Woman with a Golden Drum" from different angles. He also selected "Morning Breeze Blowing the Woods" from Pinarjean's paintings and also photographed it.

    "I sent it to my old friend and asked him to judge it with a professional eye." Auerbach explained, "That guy is the artistic director of Ritchie Auction House in Ottawa, and he has a very good taste."

    Qin Shiou put these paintings away and placed them. When Auerbach saw the pickup truck in the yard before leaving, he nodded and said: "It is really inconvenient to go to the town from the fishing ground. I neglected this matter. In this way, you can drive my car."  Old Ford, I'll send the pickup truck back to Anderson."

    Anderson is the name of the owner of the inn.

    After hearing this, Qin Shiou was a little moved and said, "Give me the Ford, what will you drive?"

    Auerbach said: "I still have a BMW 750, so I'll drive a BMW."

    Qin Shiou: ""

    After Auerbach left, Qin Shiou stayed alone in the small building with nothing to do, so he took a vacuum cleaner and a chicken feather blanket and prepared to clean.

    The small building is divided into two floors. The first floor has two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a hall, a storage room and a kitchen. The overall area is more than 300 square meters, and the hall alone is nearly 100 square meters.

    The second floor is slightly smaller, with an area of ??250 to 60 square meters. There are six bedrooms symmetrically distributed. In addition, there is a dressing room of about 20 square meters. It is very spacious and has a simple decoration style. The entire small building is decorated both on the floor and on the walls.  A layer of fine red maple board is laid, which is both moisture-proof and beautiful.

    During lunch, Qin Shiou was ready to change his taste. The cod in Newfoundland is very famous. He transferred his consciousness to the nearby ocean and prepared to fulfill his original wish and cook a cod to try.

    The beautiful Shenbao Lake gave Qin Shiou a great thought. Originally, he thought that the landscape of a lake is so brilliant and gorgeous, and the vast underwater world should be even more brilliant.

    But what he saw disappointed him. Within two meters of water, most of the seabed was white and fine sand. In addition, he could encounter rocks every now and then.

    His consciousness dived further, and when he reached a depth of about four or five meters, coral appeared on the seabed.

    Unlike the colorful Australian tropical corals on TV, most of the corals in the waters around the fishing grounds are gray-white and lifeless.

    Qin Shiou thought this was what corals looked like in the frigid zone, and then by chance, he also saw a small piece of pink and light yellow coral.

    From this piece of coral, Qin Shiou can feel the vitality. Small coral polyps are gathered together to form this small piece of coral.

    ¡°This way Qin Shiou understood that those gray-white corals were not living corals, but coral reefs composed of dead coral polyps.

    Qin Shiou¡¯s consciousness continued to move in the sea, but it could not move very far. The limit was about two nautical miles away from the fishing ground.  In this way, the sea area he experienced was also very impressive, but he searched the sea for a long time and did not see a single fish!

    The offshore waters of the fishing ground are lifeless, the seabed environment has been severely damaged, and the fish have all left here.  In addition, the pollution in this sea area is also very serious, the water quality is quite poor, and the water temperature is relatively low, which is the reason why the fish escape.

    When Qin Shiou regained consciousness, he saw a transparent long arm of a jellyfish floating towards him.

    This jellyfish is more than forty centimeters long and five centimeters in diameter. Its shape is like a spiral arm. It is well-proportioned overall but slightly slender at both ends. The body is composed of an outer wall and an inner wall, with a hollow center. The whole body is translucent light white.  .

    Qin Shiou recognized it as a cup sponge. Although it looked very big, it was actually similar in structure to coral. The latter was composed of countless small coral polyps, while it was composed of countless small jellyfish.

    Cup jellyfish is a very common creature in the Atlantic Ocean. This cup sponge is composed of square cup jellyfish. A small jellyfish is only two millimeters long. They usually live in groups. Thousands of small jellyfish group together to form such a shape.  structure.

    Seeing this cup sponge, Qin Shiou was a little happy, because this thing can attract fish. It is called a 'small fish bunker' and can protect small fish.

    As we all know, the ocean predator pyramid consists of big fish eating small fish, but cup sponges can grow to be several meters long or even tens of meters long. To big fish, it is like a monster and they dare not attack it easily.

    In this way, the small fish can get a higher chance of survival by hiding inside.  The secretions and excrement of small fish are the food of these cup jellyfish, and the symbiotic relationship between the two is a wonder of the ocean.

    After Qin Shiou¡¯s consciousness got close to the cup sponge, he discovered thatThe small cup jellyfish that formed it now had a weak breath of life, and there was even a hole in the outer wall on the side.

    However, when the cup jellyfish approached Qin Shiou's consciousness, his vitality slowly began to recover, and Qin Shiou felt a little tired.  Then he suddenly realized that his consciousness could treat or even rescue marine life.

    Qin Shiou regained consciousness, and the cup sponge kept following him. Finally, it floated to the patch of pink and light yellow coral, and then it stopped.

    At this time, the cup jellyfish have regained their vitality, and Qin Shiou can feel the attachment and gratitude of these little things to him.

    After regaining consciousness, Qin Shiou felt tired and particularly hungry.

    The cod was not found, and Qin Shiou was too lazy to cook the carp, so he simply drove to the town and found a restaurant called "Papa Hickson's" to eat ready-made.

    The restaurant looks a bit shabby from the outside, but it's very clean inside. An old white man with a beard braided on his chin is busy cleaning. The oak tables are polished and shiny. They have obviously been aged for a long time.  Apply batter.

    "Hey, man, what do you want?" Seeing Qin Shiou, the old man asked with a smile.

    Just when Qin Shiou was about to speak, the old man looked at him carefully for a while, then suddenly walked over quickly and punched him in the chest gently: "You drove old Auerbach's car. I heard that the old guy picked up Qin's grandson.  Come to town, is that you?¡±

    It seems that his grandfather is indeed very popular. Qin Shiou smiled and said: "Yes, I am Xiao Qin, and the Qin you are talking about is my grandfather."

    He was looking forward to the old man giving him a discount like the hotel owner did, and it would be even better if he invited him to dinner.

    ¡°As a result, the chubby old man laughed and said: ¡°Great, kid, your grandpa still owes me more than a thousand yuan for food. Remember to pay it off for him in the future.¡±

    Qin Shiou immediately couldn't laugh or cry, but then the old man patted his shoulder affectionately and said, "But I'll treat him to the first meal. I promised Qin that when his descendants come to take over the fishery, I will treat them to a meal."

    The old man with pigtails worked vigorously and resolutely. After asking him to sit down, he rushed into the kitchen. Qin Shiou watched him disappear in a daze. After a long time, he was speechless and said: "Uncle, I haven't said what to eat yet."

    Four or five minutes later, a portion of fragrant fried rice was served. On top of the snow-white rice was whiter and more tender salmon meat, dots of golden oil sprinkled on it, and slices of golden egg pancakes.  In addition, the fried rice is topped with a layer of red meat sauce, which looks appetizing.

    Qin Shiou scooped up the meat sauce rice with a spoon and took a bite. The tender gravy accompanied by the warm rice exploded on his taste buds. He gave a thumbs up to the braided old man and said vaguely: "It's great, this is the best I've ever tasted.  Best fried rice ever.¡±

    After hearing his compliments, the little old man¡¯s eyes narrowed with laughter. He took out a pipe and held it in his mouth. He blew out the smoke and said, ¡°This is the spicy fried salmon that my father Hixon is best at.¡±  Meat sauce rice, your grandpa used to like this very much, so I guess you will like it too."

    "It's delicious in the world." Qin Shiou praised.

    As soon as he said this word, Father Hickson suddenly became quiet. He looked at Qin Shiou carefully, and there was a faint mist floating in his eyes.

    Qin Shiou didn't know what was going on. Father Hickson looked at it for a long time and said softly: "Young man, your grandfather also used this word when he ate this fried rice for the first time, 'the most delicious thing in the world'. My father was still in charge at that time.  This restaurant. It¡¯s been so many years in the blink of an eye.¡±

    Father Hickson didn¡¯t say anything else. He stood in front of the window, chewing his pipe and looking out at the blue sky. The smoke was lingering. He might be feeling nostalgic about the time when he was young.

    The blue sky is still there, but the old friend has disappeared.

    After the meal, Qin Shiou wanted to pay the bill, but Father Hickson refused to accept it, and instead apologized: "I just thought about some things in the past, and maybe the atmosphere was a bit depressing. Come back tomorrow at noon, and I will make another one for you.  Okay?"

    Qin Shiou thanked him and returned to the fishing ground. He had nothing to do in the afternoon and his spirit was a little tired, so he lay on the bed and watched TV.

    Canada and the United States are closely intertwined. As the younger brother of the latter, it can share almost all American TV programs. Qin Shiou watched a TV series that was not introduced in China, called "X Killer".

    X-Killer is a bit imitated by X-Men. The protagonist is also a mutant with special powers.  His ability is that after coming into contact with a person's DNA, he can change into that person's appearance. The plot tells the story of him using his superpowers to punish rape and eliminate evil.

    In the evening, Auerbach called and said that his old friend from Ritchie Auction House had flown to Newfoundland and would help him appraise the paintings tomorrow morning.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)Visit this website: www.hlnovel.com
