Golden Fishery

  In the next few days, Qin Shiou devoted himself to practicing the 15-kilometer long-distance swimming. His first practice time entered four hours, and he was able to swim for three and a half hours when he was in the best condition.

  Butler drove to Japan with a 900-pound tuna. As soon as this fish appeared, it caused a sensation in Tokyo.

  This year, the tuna market in Japan is in a downturn. If it is over 500 pounds, it is a big fish. If it is over 800 pounds, it is hard to see it. When this 900-pound bluefin tuna shows up, it almost confirms its identity as the king of fish.

What excites the seafood merchants in Tokyo is not only the weight of this fish, but also its meat quality. The fat content of this fish has created a historical record. The quality is higher than that of the big fish brought by Qin Shiou last year. The auction price is expected. It is only high and not low.

  Qin Shiou did not pay much attention to this issue. On March 10th, he took his family and the little guys like tigers, leopards, bears and wolves to Prince Edward Island to prepare for this competition.

  Farewell was driving fast, breaking through wind and waves, and arrived at the Northumberland Strait the day before the race.

  When he arrived at the strait, it happened to be early in the morning. Qin Shiou stood on the deck and scanned his surroundings, and first saw the famous Canadian Federal Bridge.

  The Confederation Bridge is another great and glorious feat of Canada to challenge and conquer nature after the Pacific Railway. It connects Prince Edward Island and New Brunswick, and is a giant cross-sea bridge.

  This bridge is long and slender, with a majestic shape, but the lines are extremely beautiful and stretched. To use a common Chinese phrase, it is like a giant dragon hovering over the sea.

  The morning sun is rising, and the sun shines on the sea and on the bridge. Add more charm.

  Qin Shiou searched on his mobile phone. The bridge is 12.9 kilometers long. It is currently the longest bridge in the world across ice-covered waters. Its completion and opening to traffic completely changed the isolation of Prince Edward Island for thousands of years. It is recognized by the world as the greatest project in Canada in the 20th century.

  For Prince Edward Island, the Confederation Bridge has now become the bridge of life. Before the bridge was built, the island and the outside world were completely transported by ferry and plane.

  At that time, in order to overcome the traffic barrier with mainland Canada, the provincial government of Prince Edward Island proposed to the federal government the construction of an undersea tunnel or a cross-sea bridge in the 1980s.

  This incident almost led to civil strife in Prince Edward Island, because some island residents worried that once the cross-sea transportation facilities were completed, it would severely damage the island’s “original ecology” and disrupt their peaceful lifestyle.

  Another part of the residents supports the construction of an undersea tunnel or a cross-sea bridge. In order to improve their "isolated" living condition.

  Two very different views once dominated its supporters in violent clashes. Later, after the provincial government suppressed it by force, it decided to solve the problem by a referendum across the island, and a referendum was held on January 18, 1988.

  The final result is that 59.4% voted for the construction of the cross-sea bridge. The project started in 1993, invested 5,000 labors, and 1 billion US dollars of funds. It was completed and opened to traffic on May 31, 1997, which made this piece of feat-like construction.

  The choice of charity tournament in Northumberland Strait is also of significance. The Confederation Bridge is the spirit of the game, symbolizing the participants' unyielding belief in fighting poverty, disease, and despair.

Shaq walked out of the cab. He saw Qin Shiou looking at the bridge with amazement, and said: "Boss. You'd better look at it more. It will be a guide for you to swim during the game. You find that you are getting farther across the bridge. Then you have to adjust your swimming route."

  Qin Shiou nodded as the yacht passed under the bridge. He raised his head and looked up, and the four big flags were hunting and hunting under the sea breeze. They are the Canadian flag, the Prince Edward Island provincial flag, the New Brunswick provincial flag and the Confederation Bridge flag.

  Vini saw him watching the bridge in a trance, and asked: "What are you looking at? Is it the first time you see such a magnificent bridge?"

  Qin Shiou said: "No, I'm thinking about one thing, that is, should we bid farewell to the island to imitate Prince Edward Island and build such a cross-sea bridge?"

Winnie was taken aback, and then chuckled: "What are you kidding? Prince Edward Island has an area of ​​6,000 square kilometers. It ranks 104th in the world by area and 23rd in Canada. Farewell to the island. ?"

  Qin Shiou shrugged and said, "The area of ​​the farewell island is also very large, it must be four to five hundred square kilometers, isn't it?"

  Vini looked at his expression carefully and said with a horrified look: "Are you serious?"

  The Confederation Bridge looks majestic, but in fact it is only more than ten kilometers in length. How far is the Farewell Island from St. John’s? More than eighty kilometers! And the Confederation Bridge of more than ten kilometers cost one billion in the last century. What about the bridge of more than 80 kilometers?

The more she thought about it, the more frightened Winnie she was, and she was about to persuade Qin Shiou to dispel this unrealistic idea. As a result, Qin Shiou first laughed and said, "You really take it seriously? I'm brain-dead, how could I want to build a dozen? A kilometer-long bridge?"

  Distance is not the biggest problem. The biggest problem is value. The population density of Prince Edward Island is 25 people per square kilometer. This is the largest population density in all provinces in Canada. What about Farewell Island? An average of four or five people per square kilometer...

  Qin Shiou came to Prince Edward Island ahead of time. Not only was he familiar with the stadium, but he also wanted to play around here.

  Prince Edward Island is famous for its beautiful scenery. When Canada introduces various provinces, the introduction here is: God put part of the land he created in the turbulent Atlantic Ocean, so a beautiful island was formed.

  Among the local indigenous Indian population, the name of Prince Edward Island is "Abai Guwait", which means "cradle floating on the waves", which shows how beautiful it is.

  In addition to the beautiful scenery, Prince Edward Island has another place that is proud of Canada, and that is its mild climate.

  The warm waters of the Gulf of St. Lawrence make the climate on the islands milder than that of mainland Canada, which makes up for the humid climate conditions here all year round.

  The summer here is warm and humid. The temperature is generally kept at 20 degrees Celsius, and the highest can exceed 35 degrees Celsius. It is already a very hot place in Canada.

  At this time, the time is March, and the temperature is still relatively low, about four to five degrees Celsius above zero. But for Canadians who are accustomed to the cold, this temperature can already wear spring and autumn clothes.

  The farewell number was docked at Shanghai Port. When Qin Shiou got off the boat, he could see several fishermen in cotton-padded clothes on the dock. After entering the city, this kind of dress was rare. No matter the girl or the boy, they all changed into spring and autumn clothes. (To be continued...)
