    The brutal ten consecutive updates have begun. Get ready, everyone. If you have a monthly ticket, please vote. Hehe, thank you!  &&&&

    Canada is a country of immigrants. The people actually don¡¯t value national sovereignty very much, and they don¡¯t have a strong sense of belonging to the country. This can be seen from their willingness to accept the nominal rule of the British royal family.

    The British were the most thoughtful and conscientious in their rule of India. As a result, as soon as the Indians had the opportunity to become independent, they immediately demanded complete independence and separated everything British political from the Indian mainland.

    Canada does not have this problem, because the people hold an indifferent attitude, and they value nostalgia more.

    The British BBC radio station once launched a large-scale public sentiment survey in Canada and found that in the hearts of Canadians, family status comes first, then community, then province and city, and finally the country.

    "Sacrificing one's family for one's country is a bit distant to Canadians, which is why Canada's performance during World War II was so sluggish. If the fall of the British mainland was not justified, they would not want to refer to it.

    Will the Germans rule the world?  Oh, then let him rule. Will we not be able to eat bread and cod if the Germans rule?

    ??When Newfoundlanders meet foreigners and introduce themselves to foreigners, they will say that they are Newfoundlanders, and rarely say that they are Canadians.

    For rural towns like Farewell Town, their sense of identity with the country is even lower. The Town Day is more solemn than the National Day for this reason.

    At 5:30 on Saturday morning, the town celebration officially began. The town government prepared sixteen ship cannons, all of which were old-fashioned mortar cannons from the 16th and 17th centuries, installed on fishing boats.

    Because the Harvest was so popular in the Gulf of St. Lawrence some time ago, it got the opportunity to carry a gun battery. A total of four guns were installed on the left side of the ship. In the early morning, the bow of the fishing boat was pointed toward the east, and the cannon was pointed at the northern waters.

    Four fishing boats were lined up in a row at the pier. A sunrise slowly rose from the sea. The orange-red light shone on the sea, showing a warm color.

    Nelson, Bird, Shaq and Kraken each controlled a cannon on the Harvest. After Hamre gave the message on the intercom, Qin Shiou asked them to light the fuse and fire!

    ¡°Boom boom boom boom!!!¡±

    After a muffled sound, the bronze barrel of the mortar trembled, and the Harvest floated four or five meters back due to the huge recoil. The shells were shot out and spontaneously ignited in the air, leaving streaks of colored smoke, turning the sea surface into a  Be colorful.

    There are four cannons on each ship, and each cannon fires four colored cannonballs, a total of sixty-four cannons.

    The domestic tourists who were watching on the pier laughed and talked, saying that the number four is the most taboo during domestic festivals, and people here in Farewell Town are addicted to it, starting with four.

    The salute shells used in this kind of celebration are all specially made. The main material is white phosphorus. After the shells are fired, they rub against the air and burn immediately, releasing the colored pigments inside.

    The cannonballs glide all the way through the air, leaving behind a rainbow-like arc of color. These colored smoke will stay in the air for more than a day. As long as the sea breeze is not too strong, it will feel like there is a rainbow hanging on the dock for a long time.

    After the salute, the four fishing boats are open to tourists. After paying 50 yuan, you can get on the boat and go out to sea for a certain distance to fish. The catch will be divided among the tourists.

    This made a group of tourists feel very good. Five hundred Canadian dollars is two thousand five hundred yuan. They calculated that if they went out to sea, the catch would be more than two thousand five hundred yuan, right?  One after another signed up to board the ship.

    Qin Shiou was very happy to see it. Tourists are so naive. They just set a net in the offshore and come back. How many things can be caught in one or two hours at most?  It will definitely be difficult to get your money back, but it will be fun.

    The town celebration day officially begins, and there is nothing special. Generally, there are three steps. The first is to eat and drink to the full; the second is to participate in activities and watch performances; the third is to set off fireworks by the Shenbao Lake in the evening and enjoy a bonfire dinner.

    Because the celebration starts early and many people are hungry, the residents of the town will prepare breakfast and bring it to the streets of the town. The women will carry baskets with food and drink in them, and they can get it just by saying hello.

    Wei Ni made small meals such as fried egg pancakes, fried dumplings, and baked biscuits. When a tourist came up to say hello to her, she would give one away.

    ¡°However, tourists often come up to her not to ask for food, but to take photos with her.

    Today, Winnie is wearing a traditional British aristocratic waist-length skirt, the kind of whalebone skirt that knocked out the heroine Elizabeth Swanler in "Pirates of the Caribbean 1".?Wearing a lady's big-brimmed hat, she looks charming.

    On the town celebration day, the clothes of the townspeople tend to be in the 16th and 17th centuries. The clothes are traditional and gorgeous, which is also a scenery.

    A stage was set up in the middle of the street in the town. Hamre invited a well-known local DJ band from St. John's. Several young people with tattoos and weird long hair were holding guitars and going crazy on the stage.  Sing and lead the surrounding audience to howl along.

    In order to facilitate unified deployment and prevent overcrowding due to overpopulation, the town government temporarily rented and installed a Motorola intercom system base station in the town. Vendors in the town have intercoms to communicate with each other.

    Qin Shiou found a barbecue stall and ordered grilled foie gras. He didn't understand that this thing could be grilled. Europeans are really weird.

    The owner of the barbecue stall gave him two slices, which were briefly fried in oil and then grilled. There were four slices in total and each was 15 yuan, which was like grabbing money.

    Qin Shiou curled his lips and thought it was expensive. The boss said proudly: "Is this expensive? Dear Qin, this is French barbecue. If it weren't for me, you would have gone to France to eat!"

    "Damn, are you so tall?"

    "Exactly."

    ¡°Boss, how much does it cost for a skewer of grilled foie gras?¡± a tourist asked.

    "It's ten yuan. It's one yuan cheaper if you don't need an invoice."

    When Qin Shiou heard this, he immediately became angry and shouted: "Isn't it fifteen yuan?"

    The boss said firmly: "No need to get excited, dear Qin, I just learned a word from your compatriots, which is called killing the rich and giving to the poor"

    "Shit, you profiteers!"

    It was just a small episode. When Qin Shiou finally paid the bill, the boss charged him a total of 15 yuan and winked at him and said, "That bunch is for you to eat."

    There is a parking lot in front of the Hughes convenience store. The cars have been moved away. Inflatable water skateboards are placed on the open space. A group of children aged five, six, seven or eight are playing crazily there.

    As the weather warmed up towards noon, there were more and more activities. Because the town had many puppies such as Labradors and Newfoundlands, a dog racing competition was held.

    The competition is very simple, just to see whose dog can run fast and jump far. There are prizes to win, such as towels, bath towels, swimsuits and other small things.

    Qin Shiou sent the tiger and leopard up, and now he was happy to win. Who can outrun the tiger and leopard?  The two little guys won him a bunch of towels and bath towels, so he won't have to buy them anymore this year.

    Qin Shiou was leading tigers and leopards to kill all directions when the walkie-talkie in his hand suddenly rang: "Boss, come to Jiadeli Fishing Ground, something damn happened." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
