    It is not difficult to select fourteen people out of forty-nine people, because they have not been exposed to the fishery industry, so it is even simpler: Navy is preferred, those with a strong sense of responsibility are preferred, those with a harmonious personality are preferred, and those with excellent English speaking skills are preferred.

    After selecting good people, Qin Shiou signed contracts with fifteen people under the witness of Yan Donglei, and then took them to the fishing ground and began to divide them into teams to learn work at sea and conduct internships.

    The spoken language of the fifteen people was not very good, especially the fishermen's accents and dialects were very strong, and they liked to speak some abbreviations and slang, while the Chinese soldiers' spoken language was stumbling and had their own Chinese dialect. After entering the fishing ground,  When they came into contact with the fishermen, the two sides talked like ducks and had no idea what each other was talking about.

    Qin Shiou had no choice but to call Pao Hai in advance and sign a contract with him to hire him as the chief engineer of the Melon Princess. In this way, with him as the interpreter, the two parties could communicate.

    But this is not a solution. Qin Shiou opened a teaching class by himself and gave English training to a group of people in the evening. He directly stipulated that there will be an oral test after Christmas. If he cannot carry out basic conversations, he will be fired!

    After returning to the fishing ground, Qin Shiou was busy making a fishing plan. At night, he went out for a walk and saw the bright lights at the entrance of the small warehouse next to the dock, and many people gathered there.

    He went over and saw that Heidao and others were wearing sunglasses and using electric soldering irons and welding guns to weld some iron sheets and iron rods. There were people watching around them, and they would come up with ideas from time to time.

    Qin Shiou was curious and asked, "What are you doing?"

    Seeing him, he stood up and waved hello with his computer in his arms and said, "We found some gadgets in the town and want to use them to create a sculpture that can not only decorate the fishery but also reflect this event.  .¡±

    ¡°I don¡¯t know how long the soldiers have been busy. Each of them has a welding gun in his hand. Shaq and others are still helping. However, because each person is only responsible for a part, Qin Shiou cannot tell what kind of sculpture they are making.

    The doormat explained: "It is a steel poppy flower. There will be some names on the petals. It will be about two meters high. I thought it would be good to stand on the dock or somewhere."

    Qin Shiou probably understood that opium poppy is the main raw material for manufacturing drugs. Most countries in the world strictly prohibit the cultivation of this crop. However, this flower has special meaning for Veterans Day. It is the commemorative flower used for this festival.

    This tradition comes from a war between France and Belgium. During World War I, the western border of Belgium and the northern border of France were the areas with the most intense fighting, and many soldiers died there.  In May 1915, when a military doctor was burying the remains of his comrades, he saw poppy flowers all over the mountains and fields, so he wrote the famous work "On Flanders Land".  Since then, this flower has gradually become a symbol of Britain's commemoration of fallen soldiers.

    It's easy to do things when there are many people. When Qin Shiou went for a morning run the next morning, he saw a huge steel poppy flower erected on the pier. However, it had not been painted, so it looked dark and not very beautiful.  , but it does have a solemn feeling.

    In the next few days, the fishermen began to install and plan to go fishing at sea. Ten people recruited from the small town could directly take up the job. The Chinese fishermen were responsible for some physical work, such as packing up the fishing boats and transporting the catch from the fishing boats to the icehouse.  wait.

    Beginning on the 10th, Nelson and other comrades came to the fishing ground. Qin Shiou arranged a helicopter for them to pick up and drop off their comrades. Bird was in charge, and the others continued to work. The work in November was a bit tense.

    By the morning of the 11th, everyone who was supposed to come had arrived. Qin Shiou gave Hei Dao and others a holiday, and booked Father Hixon's restaurant in the town for the group to use for activities.

    As the boss of Seven People, Qin Shiou went over to receive him in the morning. Bird helped him prepare a poppy made of velvet and pin it on his chest. This is also tradition. Those who participated in the Remembrance Day today went up to the Queen,  Down to the common people, poppies are worn to express condolences.

    Memorial Day is targeted. For a small town far away from the secular world and war, the anniversary atmosphere is not heavy. There are related activities in St. John's. The only people in the town are Paul Sagro, the second owner of the outdoor supermarket, and his staff.  Two idiots also wore this kind of flower.

    After putting on the poppies, Qin Shiou gave Bird a check, shrugged and said, "This is the money I paid for the flowers."

    In various activities, most poppies are made by veterans. People who participate in commemorative activities need to buy them, but there is no price. They can give 50 cents or 500 yuan. The buyer can set the price freely. The money goes to the Veterans Association.  Used to support disabled veterans, families of fallen soldiers and war memorials.

    Bird didn¡¯t look at the numbers above, be careful.He folded it up and put it in his wallet, and said with a smile: "Thank you, boss."

    After entering Dad's restaurant, there were about thirty or forty people talking and laughing loudly. Seeing Qin Shiou and others, their voices fell silent for a moment. Heidao stood up and introduced: "This is our boss. He sponsored this event. He is a good man."  , great people who take great care of us.¡±

    After Heidao¡¯s introduction, a group of people whistled and waved to Qin Shiou.

    A middle-aged man in a jacket came over, stretched out his hand and said: "My name is Ferguson, I am a guy from Black Knife and BB Cream. Thank you for taking care of them. We have all heard that these guys have had a good life these two years."  .¡±

    Qin Shiou shook hands with the middle-aged man, and then found that the man's hands were disabled. His right hand only had thumb and little finger, and there were thick calluses on his palm. He should be doing hard work now.

    He made a guess in his mind and said politely: "This is what I should do. You have shed blood for the country, and Black Knife and the others have shed sweat for my fishery, so no matter what I do, it is natural."

    "But many people don't think so!" A middle-aged man with saggy skin and dull eyes came over and said angrily, "Especially those damn politicians in Maple Leaf City, they will send us to the battlefield if necessary and then never care about us again.  Fake squid! Let them go!"

    Nelson pulled him and said in a deep voice: "Matt, don't talk like this. The people here today are all guys. We can solve our own difficulties ourselves, can't we? God will always be in our hearts."

    Matt threw Nelson away and muttered: "Fuck God! God is in your heart, you have a decent job, and I heard you have a beautiful girlfriend who looks like a little flower? What about me? What the hell am I doing?"  None, just a broken leg!"

    It was only then that Qin Shiou noticed that Matt's walking posture was a little wrong, but it shouldn't be serious.

    Bird's face darkened and he whispered: "Matt, for the sake of Barnes, just stop talking, okay? Go drink your wine! Drink as much as you want today!" (Remember  Website address: www.hlnovel.com
