As the car drove forward on the road, Mao Weilong opened the window to let in the air. He observed the models of cars passing by and said later: "Brother, he is also a veteran in playing cars. I don't even know there are so many cars. Many of them have not entered the domestic market. But there are also quite a lot of classic cars. Isn¡¯t it true that Canada has particularly strong regulations on automobiles? I think many cars should be written off.¡±
Qin Shiou smiled and said: "Yes, there are more classic cars here than in China. Canada has strong vehicle safety supervision, but their vehicle inspections are relatively lax. As long as they can pass the vehicle inspection, they can be on the road. Of course, for safety reasons, the number of vehicle inspections for classic cars More often than a regular car.¡±
*** nodded and said: "Actually, the same is true in the United States, especially in the Montana area. The place is too big and you can't go anywhere without the car. Also, don't think that Americans and Canadians are very rich. The proportion of poor people is higher. And they are almost destitute, and they can only drive shabby cars that are on the verge of becoming obsolete.¡±
¡°The car I drove before had different sizes on all four wheels.¡± Bird interjected.
Qin Shiou and the three of them chatted in English before. This is a courtesy. When foreigners are present, try not to speak in a language that others cannot understand.
Mao Weilong shrugged his shoulders and gave Bird a thumbs up as if he was awesome.
In addition, driving in Canada is very different from that in China. In China, you can drive without turning on the lights during the day, and try not to turn on the headlights when driving at night.
This is not the case in Canada. Because of the year-round snow and fog, driving here poses great safety risks. Therefore, the Canadian Ministry of Transport has specially issued regulations requiring cars to turn on their headlights when driving on the highway to increase driving safety. .
This light is turned on day and night, anyway, electricity and gasoline are cheap in Canada.
At first, Qin Shiou was also puzzled. Why did the headlights light up once he turned the key and started the engine when he drove the President No. 1? He asked Shaq and found out that this was modified when the car left the factory.
In addition, there is a situation in Canada where a person¡¯s social identity and status cannot be measured by a car.
Of course, this is not absolute, but relative to Asia.
Because of tariffs, most of the people who drive BMW and Mercedes-Benz in Asia are wealthy people. Canada¡¯s BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Cadillac and even Land Rover have cheap models. But if you drive a Porsche, Lamborghini, etc., no matter where you are, everyone knows that you are awesome.
Many middle-class and above-average cars in Canada drive old and shabby cars, because some cars are passed down from their fathers, just like passing down names. People care about this and will maintain and repair the cars well and continue to use them.
??Also, Canadians value privacy and personal feelings, and they will not live for the eyes of others. The reflection of this on cars is that they may be used to their father's or even grandfather's classic cars and have little interest in new cars, so they will continue to drive their family's old cars.
The further we drove toward the suburbs, the more congested the traffic became. At the corner of the road, the Land Rover was forced to stop. Mao Weilong smiled and said, "I feel like I'm home now. Since I left Kyoto, I've rarely been stuck in such a miserable traffic jam."
Qin Shiou also felt strange, so he stuck his head out of the car window and looked out to see how far ahead the traffic jam was.
As it turned out, a Royal Mounted Police motorcycle drove over. When the traffic policeman on top saw Qin Shiou leaning out of the car, he waved the car to pull over.
When the car stopped, the traffic policeman habitually asked Bird to show his driver's license and asked Qin Shiou to explain what happened just now.
Although Bird usually couldn't hold back a word for ten minutes, at this time he showed a very sharp tongue: "Man, you just made a mistake, do you understand? You asked us to pull over? Actually? We've been stuck here for five minutes, you know? Five minutes! Not moving, we've been pulling over!"
"You want to explain? What explanation do you want? Why did our boss stick his head out the window to look out? It's not your own work error! Why are the roads blocked like this? Where are our tax dollars? Are you building such a narrow road to fool us?"
The traffic policeman said firmly: "Sorry, sir, but this has nothing to do with us. There was a car accident on the road ahead, and half of the road has been closed"
"What's the use of explaining this to me? What do you traffic police do? Isn't your duty to clear the roads? Do we pay taxes and pay you just to ask you to trouble us?" Bird interrupted arrogantly. What the traffic police said was followed by an angry roar.
People in the surrounding cars were watching the fun, but they were really unhappy about being stuck in traffic, so they started shouting after Bird.??Everyone in the car was booing.
Someone shouted: "What are you doing here? Go clear the road. Do you want us to spend the weekend on the damn road?"
People who take this road are either going out for a picnic in the city for a leisurely weekend, or going to see the Great Falls. The former are fed up with the crowded and congested urban life, while the latter are eager to see the scenery, so they are very dissatisfied with being stuck in the traffic jam. This situation on the road.
It was not a big deal for Qin Shiou to stick his head out of the window. The traffic policeman glared at Bird and did not pursue the matter further. He started his motorcycle and hurried forward.
Soon, the traffic started to move again, although it was a little slow.
After this incident, Mao Weilong greatly changed his opinion of Bird, and gave a thumbs up and praised: "Well done, buddy, you are a pure man!"
Bird smiled and said: "It was originally their fault at work. I didn't do anything. In fact, my duty is not to use words but to do something. If he did something to the boss just now, then I would have a chance to express myself. "
Mao Weilong was very envious that Qin Shiou had a subordinate like Bird, and later he muttered that when his farm opened, he would hire such a powerful helper with a high salary.
After all, the roads in the suburbs were clear. After getting rid of the car accident, the Land Rover accelerated directly and headed straight for the city of Niagara.
On the road, we passed a large group of towering black factory buildings, with large chimneys towering over the land like giant arms, and many dump trucks carrying iron ore coming and going around. This is Hamilton's steel smelting base.
Qin Shiou took a closer look. Although there were many chimneys in the smelting plant, there was no black smoke coming out. Obviously Hamilton has very high requirements for factory exhaust gas emissions, and these chimneys have been equipped with exhaust gas treatment devices.
*** said with emotion: "Canada is so big and so sparsely populated, but people still pay so much attention to environmental protection. I really hope that our country will take a slightly slower pace of development so that our children can have green mountains and clear waters to see in the future."
Qin Shiou scratched his chin and said nothing. He didn't agree very much with ***. China is not as big as Canada and has more people than Canada. Therefore, in order to feed such a large population and enjoy a high-quality life, China needs to develop rapidly. economy.
But one thing he agrees with is that the environmental price China has paid to build its economy is a bit high! (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
