    After breakfast, Qin Shiou said to Shaq: "Take people to search along the coastline. It is easy for jellyfish proliferation to break out this season. Damn it, I don't want to cause any problems with the water because of this."

    The fishermen are all old mariners. They know more about jellyfish than Qin Shiou, and they know clearly which ones can be eaten and which ones should be discarded.

    The children don¡¯t have to go to school today. Today is the anniversary of the referendum on Newfoundland¡¯s annexation to Canada, so they can have a day off.

    On this day in history in 1948, Newfoundland held a referendum and passed a resolution to annex Canada.  On March 31, 1949, Newfoundland officially joined Canada and became Canada's tenth province.

    For Newfoundland, this is not a very good memory, because the indigenous people have a proud sense of independence. At the beginning of the last century, it was an independent country as the first autonomous territory after the British Empire lost its American colonies.

    But because it was still a dominion of the British Empire at the time, Newfoundland borrowed heavily to finance the British war during World War I. As a result, it had a fiscal deficit in the 1920s. In the 1930s, its accumulated debt exceeded national income.  three times.

    In 1933, major Canadian banks threatened to suspend lending to Newfoundland due to concerns about its creditworthiness.  Newfoundland turned to London for help, and the British government sent a Royal Commission of Inquiry to investigate the issue.

    The British were really dark and dirty in their politics. After their investigation, they proposed a unilateral solution that required the dissolution of the Newfoundland Parliament and the transfer of all government powers to a six-member committee. The committee members were three from Newfoundland and three from Newfoundland.  The name comes from England.

    There is no doubt that this plan is actually to allow Newfoundland to give up its national sovereignty and return to colonial status.

    Of course, although they were previously called independent countries, they were also autonomous territories of Canada. Therefore, the Newfoundland Parliament finally accepted this request and dissolved the democratic government.

    This situation lasted until after World War II. Britain, which was greatly weakened, had no money to budget for Newfoundland anymore and proposed to terminate the dispatch of the government.

    But at that time, Newfoundland also participated in World War II. It also suffered heavy losses and encountered bottlenecks in domestic construction. In desperation, it had to turn to Canada for help. After getting the latter's promise to bear its debts, it became Canada's tenth through citizen voluntary voting.  Province.

    Children don¡¯t care about this. In fact, Canadians don¡¯t care where they are from. There are too many immigrants and too mixed consciousness.  For example, Mexicans and Japanese are relatively conservative countries. Immigrant families do not allow their children to learn English and insist on speaking Mexican and Japanese. How can children from such families have a sense of belonging to Canada?

    Shirley and the others don¡¯t care whether they are Newfoundlanders or Canadians. What they care about is that they have one more day to play.

    But after playing for a while during the day, several children ran back angrily and found a long thin stick with a broom tied there to do some trouble.

    The tiger and the leopard were watching together, and the children were discussing. The two of them barked from time to time, as if they were also participating in the discussion.

    Qin Shiou asked curiously: "What are you doing?"

    Gordon said without raising his head: "Get rid of those cicadas."

    "We wanted to play in the hut, but it was too noisy outside and the insects were chirping in the trees, which was really annoying, so we decided to get rid of them," Powell explained.

    Indeed, with the outbreak of the seventeen-year cicada, the town is now surrounded by the sound of cicadas, and the endless cries of cicadas can be heard in the villa.

    Qin Shiou thought for a while and said: "How about this? I'll teach you how to cicada. This is a game we played when we were children. At that time, we could eat the cicadas we caught. Forget it now, but it's good to feed chickens.  "

    He went back to the house to find some flour, kneaded it into dough first, then put it in water to wash it, washing away the starch, and what was left in the end was sticky gluten.

    Qin Shiou tried the stickiness and felt it was big enough, so he stuck a piece of gluten on a long wooden pole, handed it to Powell and said, "You, Little Shaq, and Little Sea Monster take turns using this. Do you see this head? Slowly  , use it to post cicadas, do you understand?"

    As he said that, he simply made a small net bag with a fishing net. He rounded it up with an iron bar and combined it with another long wooden pole. He told Shirley and Gordon: "This is for netting.  Just net them in."

    With the tools ready, Qin Shiou took a group of childrenThe tiger, leopard and pineapple jumped up and followed him. The master looked listlessly and looked around. Winnie brought him a big bathtub and poured water into it, and he quickly climbed in.  Get away from the heat.

    I don¡¯t know how many cicadas there are on the two big sugar maple trees. Anyway, when you get close, it¡¯s like listening to a tight spell, and they scream like crazy. No wonder the children can¡¯t bear it.

    And there are not only cicadas on the trees, but also many other insects. No wonder the doormats are said to be accompanied by the sound of eating leaves. Indeed, among the "squeaking" sounds of cicadas, there is also the sound of "rustling" eating leaves.  , there are all kinds of insect droppings under the tree, it's disgusting.

    This was all caused by Cicada, so it¡¯s not too much for them to put the blame on Cicada.  Because when cicadas suck tree sap, they will continue to excrete urine. They do not fully absorb the tree sap, causing the urine to contain nutrients from the tree sap.

    These nutrients will attract all kinds of thirsty ants, moths, beetles, etc., which not only absorb the urine of the cicadas, but also eat the leaves. Therefore, the more cicadas on the tree, the more branches and leaves will be lost later.  .

    The owner of the sugar maple tree is Xiao Ming, a squirrel. The little guy seems to be troubled. He is squatting on a high tree branch and sulking, his cheeks bulging as if he is cursing someone.

    Qin Shiou whistled to Xiao Ming, then raised a thin wooden stick and found a cicada that was chirping happily. He slowly leaned the stick against it and introduced in a low voice: "Look, we have to be careful and get closer.  Don't let it notice"

    The children watched nervously, nodded vigorously, and their concentration made Qin Shiou sigh with emotion: If these little brats can have this motivation to study, they will definitely be candidates for the Memorial University of Newfoundland in the future.

    "The last blow must be steady and firm. Let's slowly get closer and see how hard I am!" Qin Shiou gave his wrist one last shake, and the gluten accurately adhered to the cicada's wings. The cicada screamed in fright and stuck his butt out.  The fecal water sprayed down.

    Qin Shiou has not been with Zhi for a long time and has forgotten that this trouble still exists, but he can't escape now, surrounded by children, so he can only suffer this hard.

    The children also got wet. Gordon asked stupidly: "What is this? Why did it rain suddenly?"

    Shirley and others had bad expressions on their faces. In order to maintain his dignity, Qin Shiou said with an idea: "This is the sap! This is the sap that Cicada is eating!" (Remember the website address: www.  hlnovel.com
