    There was a lot of garbage piled up behind the farm building. Qin Shiou and Duoduo hugged the little bullies away and let the garbage truck go in to clean up.

    The little bullies stretched their heads and kicked their legs, looking dissatisfied, and wanted to go down and continue to show their bravery. Qin Shiou smiled and gave them brains one by one, let them sit on the grass, and began to teach them the first lesson in life.  .

    The driver of the garbage truck was a middle-aged white man in his sixties. When he was about to leave, Mao Weilong said: "Johnp, I will have a beer and barbecue party here tonight. Do you have time? Can we come and join together?"  "

    The middle-aged white man smiled and said: "Of course, man, of course, everyone loves beer and barbecue, even if I don't have time, I will make time."

    After the white man John left, Mao Weilong explained to Qin Shiou: "This is my neighbor to the south. People in the town call him Old John. He is very enthusiastic. He has the only garbage truck in the town, so he will help with it regularly.  Garbage. These days, he helps me dispose of the garbage here, free of charge."

    "Holy shit, you met a Canadian prostitute?" Qin Shiou said in surprise.

    Even though he was doing so well in Farewell Town, in fact when he first arrived on the island, although the townspeople were friendly to him, they would not help him work for free because Canadians believe in equal payment.  Why do they help you when you are being paid?

    Mao Weilong smiled and said: "He usually charges for disposing of garbage. I am a new customer. He said he would give me a small discount. I will only help by picking up the garbage for the first half month."

    "Of course, I didn't ask him to help in vain. I gave him some good tea and domestic specialties a few days ago, so he was so enthusiastic." Mao Weilong added.

    In the afternoon, Liu Shuyan was going to Hamilton Supermarket to replenish supplies for the evening party, while Mao Weilong made a phone call to invite people he met after coming to the town, and also welcomed them to bring their friends to the dinner.

    ?? Starting a farm and purchasing property requires a lot of money. Mao Weilong has never bought a car. The farmer used to have an old pickup truck, and he used that car to top up the money for the time being.

    ¡°As a result, the old pickup truck broke down in the morning. Liu Shuyan could only take the bus to Hamilton. She definitely couldn¡¯t carry it alone. Qin Shiou asked Duoduo to play with the little bullies, and he went to help.

    "How about borrowing a car?" Qin Shiou asked, "You must have a good relationship with John Pu, right?"

    Liu Shuyan smiled bitterly and said: "Johnp doesn't have a car suitable for us to drive. Apart from agricultural vehicles, he is a garbage truck. Sometimes when he goes to Hamilton, he drives a garbage truck."

    Qin Shiou was in awe, "Damn it, old man, why are you such a dick."

    Speaking of neighborhood relations, Liu Shuyan was a little helpless and said: "We only know the neighbors now. We don't have any friendship with each other yet, so it's difficult to borrow a car."

    It¡¯s true that Canadians are very sentimental about their cars, because except for the city center, almost all places in this country are sparsely populated, and travel is inseparable from cars.  Also, what if something happens to the borrowed car?  The Canadian traffic police don't have a driver's license for the car, and if there is an accident with the car, they will look for the owner of the car.

    There is no choice but to take the bus.

    The reason why you choose to take a bus instead of a taxi is also a characteristic of Canada. Even remote towns have their own bus companies, but there are very few taxis.

    The reason for this is that private cars have become a necessity for every family in Canada, as common as tableware.  Except in big cities, taxis are basically a reservation service and are very expensive.

    Liu Shuyan said that in their small town, the taxi fare that passengers have to bear is equivalent to the round-trip fare, and the return cost must also be calculated on the passengers. This is because Canadian towns are vast and sparsely populated, and taxi drivers cannot pick up any more customers on the return trip.  .

    Qin Shiou took his handbag and followed Liu Shuyan to the street outside the farm. The street was very wide and straight, but there was almost no one there. Instead, Qin Shiou saw two reindeer trotting across the road.

    The two of them went to the street intersection and stood under a wooden sign. Qin Shiou was very curious when he took a Canadian township bus for the first time. He looked at the number '0505' written on the wooden sign and asked curiously: "What's going on?  And a number? Shouldn¡¯t there be a station name?¡±

    "No, township buses do not have station names, which is different from China. They all use the station numbers on the signs instead." Liu Shuyan explained patiently.

    Qin Shiou said in surprise: "No, what about reporting the station? Do all the passengers memorize the station numbers?"

    "No, the driver will announce the station name."

    ?Mao Weilong has long given up on the old pickup truck. He bought a bus ticket before to deal with possible emergencies, and he used it today.

    Hamilton's bus tickets are relatively expensive. Adults are 3.5 Canadian dollars each. If you buy ten at a time, you can get a 20% discount, and students can get a 50% discount. Liu Shuyan explained that they can usually be purchased at the counters of supermarkets, pharmacies and convenience stores.  arrive.

    Canada¡¯s municipal construction is very developed, which ranks high in the world. This is reflected in the bus. Although there are not many people on a bus, the number of bus trips has not decreased.

    Liu Shuyan came to wait for the bus. A few minutes after she and Qin Shiou arrived at the stop sign, an orange bus drove over.

    Compared with domestic and big city buses, urban buses are small, only the size of domestic minibuses, and use cheaper natural gas fuel, with the purpose of reducing transportation pressure.

    There are only sixteen seats in this minibus, but the seats are relatively large and comfortable, which allows passengers to earn back the high fares.

    Qin Shiou found a seat and sat down, smiling: "Not bad, it's still a soft seat."

    Liu Shuyan smiled and said: "This is a car from the 'Constellation Bus Company'. Their tickets are a little more expensive, but more comfortable. Their main target is tourists. Many people like to take their cars to visit towns and villages."

    The car started to move, and only half of the sixteen seats were occupied along the way. Qin Shiou looked at the wheat fields, orchards and pastures outside with interest, feeling that everything was fresh.

    The minibus only goes into Hamilton and does not go to the Wal-Mart supermarket they want to go to, so they have to transfer.

    Qin Shiou wanted to take a taxi. There were more taxis after entering the city. Liu Shuyan said with a smile: "There is a light rail station in front of us. Should we take the light rail? The one that goes directly to Walmart is faster than a taxi."

    Since other ladies said they wanted to take the light rail, Qin Shiou certainly couldn't refuse. It wasn't because he wanted to take a taxi, but it was more convenient and time-saving. His memory of the light rail and subway was when he went on business trips to Kyoto and Magic City.  canned sardines.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
