631. A different style
While driving, Luo Zhiwei began to talk: "If you like to open a farm, Canada is indeed more suitable. I have to admit that the policies related to agriculture here are much better than those in China. It is good to invest in farms, as the saying goes. As they say, money will always depreciate, but land will always increase in value.¡±
Qin Shiou thinks this makes sense. When he checked the farm information before, he found that with the increase in world grain prices and agricultural and sideline product prices, state-owned enterprises such as COFCO have changed their development strategies, opening farms in underdeveloped countries and investing in overseas farms.
Of course, they chose Africa because land prices and labor in Africa are much cheaper than in Canada.
But for individuals, if they want to invest in overseas farms, it is better to choose Canada.
It is true that land prices and labor are cheap in Africa, but local social unrest, imperfect laws, and serious local xenophobia mean that individuals without a country to back them always feel insecure in such places.
Qin Shiou told Mao Weilong what he knew about the situation and encouraged him to stay in Hamilton. Otherwise, if he went to Montana, it would be more difficult for the two to meet again.
Luo Zhiwei heard that Mao Weilong was also interested in the United States, so he compared: "It is better to open a farm in Canada than in the United States, because Canada is a developed industrial country, and agriculture only accounts for a small part. In order to encourage agricultural development, the Canadian government can formulate a series of The subsidy policy for farmers is incomparable to that in the United States, because there are too many large farms in the United States and land annexation is serious."
Mother Earth Farm is very well planned. The farmland is divided into square blocks. Some are planted with corn, some with barley, some with buckwheat, some with soybeans, and some with rape flowers.
The planting time of these crops is not uniform, so some are already growing vigorously, some have just sprouted, and some have not even sprouted. Luo Zhiwei did not explain that Qin Shiou and the other three did not know what to plant immediately.
??????????????????????????? However, whether it¡¯s just grown or already flourishing, it looks like the growth is good, and it¡¯s obvious that the land on this farm is fertile enough.
Mao Weilong was very satisfied with this. He introduced to Qin Shiou: "This farm is the best one among the farms I have visited. There was a farm in front of me where the grass grew well, but when I took a closer look, I found that the pasture soil The shallow layer and lots of rocks are only suitable for growing grass and are not suitable for growing vegetables and grains.¡±
"There is another farm. The owner of the farm is too greedy. He only cultivates the land but does not care for the land. Over the past ten years, the farm land has been destroyed. Rains have turned it into mud ponds, and droughts have turned it into a desert. What if I bought that farm? Renovation doesn¡¯t take four or five years, and it won¡¯t be useful unless you invest hundreds of thousands of dollars.¡±
After listening to Mao Weilong's words, Luo Zhiwei laughed and said: "Little brother, our farm is not boastful. The area may not be large, but in terms of soil quality, it is definitely among the best in Haadtun."
When Luo Zhiwei said this, Mao Weilong, Qin Shiou and *** were all stunned. The three looked at each other stupidly, and asked together in confusion: "Toad Village? Where is Toad Village? Is this this town?"
Seeing that the three people were puzzled, Cai Mingjuan smiled and said: "Toadtun is Hamilton. We Chinese have given it a nickname here. If you read the English pronunciation of Hamilton separately, you will understand why we fellow villagers call it that."
Qin Shiou read it silently. The English name for Hamilton is hamilton. If you read it separately, it is ha-mil-ton. If you read it slower, it really is the pronunciation of Haadun.
¡°Not only the transliteration, if you look at the old version of the map, you will know that Hamilton was formed by annexing surrounding towns and villages a few years ago. In the past, the city looked like a big toad with its claws extended on the map.¡± Luo Zhiwei added.
Mao Weilong listened to the two people¡¯s teasing and thought it was really interesting. He nudged Qin Shiou with his elbow and said with a smile: ¡°You have been in Canada for a year and you don¡¯t even know Hamilton¡¯s nickname?¡±
Although Qin Shiou passively enjoyed life, he was surrounded by indigenous people after all, and he had a fairly deep understanding of many cities in this country. He smiled and said: "Who told you that I didn't know its nickname? I didn't expect our compatriots to be so talented. I can think of a name like Toad Village.¡±
"Do you want another nickname?" Mao Weilong asked curiously.
Qin Shiou nodded and said, "The natives of Hamilton probably like to call this city 'Crucible Nest'."
This nickname is related to the shape of the Golden Horseshoe area. This urban area is curved on the map. It is said to be the Golden Horseshoe. This is a literary name. The common name is Hamilton. It does look like a curved creaky nest on the map.
Luo Zhiwei and his wife naturally knew this title, so they smiled and listened to Qin Shiou's explanation to Mao Weilong.
After listening to this, Mao Weilong shook his head and said with emotion: "When it comes to nicknames, we Chinese are still good at it, so what's the creaking nest? This explanation is meaningless at all, and it is far worse than our Toad Village."
The group of people listened to Luo Zhiwei and his wife introducing the farm in the car, while chatting freely. They didn¡¯t have the freedom and vastness of the fishery, but they also had a different kind of fun.
When the electric car drove to the southern edge of the farm, a garden appeared. It was about twenty or thirty acres, and it was full of stone crosses.
Mao Weilong had seen many scenes like this from Hollywood blockbusters, so he subconsciously asked: "God, isn't this a cemetery?"
Luo Zhiwei said happily: "Yes, this is the cemetery."
Mao Weilong looked at Luo Zhiwei's happy face in confusion, secretly pulled Qin Shiou and whispered: "Damn, man, this brother doesn't have a mental illness, does he? Are you so happy that your mother's farm is built next to a cemetery? "
Qin Shiou smiled and said: "It's time for me to show off again. You don't understand. This is a Canadian habit. Most locals believe in Christianity. And Christianity believes that the purpose is the place closest to heaven, so many purposes in Canada are and Parks are built together, and some are built next to residential areas.¡±
Mao Weilong was secretly speechless and asked in surprise: "Building a residential area next to the cemetery? It's not scary."
"What's the point? Many people like to live next to the cemetery. When they open the window in the dead of night, they are said to be able to see heaven directly." *** interjected and laughed.
This is the cultural surprise. Although Canada and the United States are both new countries, the residents of the two countries have a long and profound cultural history of believing in Christianity. This is closely related to the lives of believers.
Only when you come to these countries can you truly experience the integration between Christian culture and daily life. The impact of doctrinal culture on the lives of believers and social aspects is pervasive.
Qin Shiou sometimes walked around the town of Farewell Town and met some people. Their casual greetings came from the Bible. Qin Shiou was confused when he heard it. In fact, the words may mean blessings, good luck, and peace. Of course, There are also some polite connotations.
Anyway, it¡¯s very complicated! (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
