241. Nanny Nimitz
Because it took some time to rescue Bush, it would be a bit too late to go out to sea again. In addition, Qin Shiou was worried about this little guy, so he simply stopped going out to sea that day, and asked Shaq, Sea Monster and Evosen to go out to sea by themselves.
In this way, he stayed on the yacht to take care of Bush Jr. and sent the bluefin tuna back to the Daqin Fishing Farm.
As he guessed, the bluefin tunas were not used to staying at the strange Daqin Fishery, but when they were hungry they preyed on the cod and herring and Arctic shrimps, they immediately fell in love with it.
The fish and shrimp transformed by the Sea God's energy taste much better than the ordinary fish and shrimps. Moreover, the fish and shrimp resources in the fishing grounds are extremely rich, so there is no need to consider the pressure of survival in life here.
In this way, why would the bluefin tuna school leave the fishing ground?
Qin Shiou inputs the sea god energy to Bush several times, so that the little bald eagle magically restores its vitality after a day of rest.
Of course, it cannot be as active as it is when it is healthy, but it can already eat some torn fish by itself, which means it can survive.
In the afternoon, Qin Shiou saw that Bush had gradually recovered his vitality and was about to go ashore for a walk. He happened to meet Old James repairing a small boat.
When he learned that Qin Shiou wanted to go around the small harbor town, Old James generously expressed his intention to be a tour guide for him.
On the way, Old James first introduced Gloucester and said: "This small town has existed for almost four hundred years, and the city's area and population have almost never changed. Fisheries used to be, and are still the pillar industry here. This is a small town that has been parked in time."
Old James' last sentence was the city slogan of Gloucester Port. Qin Shiou saw a sign on several places with the words "where-the-past-is-" written on it. It can be translated as "Time stops here."
There are no attractions in the small fishing port. Old James focused on introducing to him the statue Qin Shiou had seen yesterday - the person next to the wheel. This statue was built during the 300th anniversary celebration of Gloucester in 1923. It is the most famous sculpture in the area and its landmark image.
On the railings near the Atlantic Ocean next to the sculpture, there are more than a dozen stone tablets standing upright. They are engraved with names similar to those of the Vietnam War Memorial in Washington. Behind each of these names is the living life of a Gloucester fisherman who is buried in the ocean.
Looking at these stone tablets, Old James looked solemn and said, "Qin, you rich people may just make the ocean a vacation and leisure place and a source of delicious seafood. But for us, the ocean is a strict father in awe rather than a kind mother."
Qin Shiou went to the stone tablet to take a look. The most conspicuous stone tablet was built in 1879. In a storm that year, 249 fishermen and 29 ships disappeared.
Leaving these stone tablets and continuing along the coastline, you can see another iconic statue in the small town. "The Memorial Statue of the Fisherman's Wife". This statue echoes the "people next to the wheel" and has great significance.
While walking on the road, Mao Weilong called Qin Shiou and said that the tour group he had visited to bid farewell to the town was back. He gave the farewell island a very high evaluation and could be rated as a 5a-level foreign tourist spot. I believe that the first batch of tourists will set off in a few days, so that he would be better off going to the tour group to get familiar with him. There are many beauties inside.
Qin Shiou said I couldn't meet our compatriots anymore because I would fish in the United States and it would take at least ten days and half a month to go back.
After making the phone call, Old James took Qin Shiou to one of the most famous tourist spots in the town and took a look, which was half-moon-beach.
This beach is not large in area, with a coastline of less than one kilometer, but the environment is extremely beautiful.
Green trees and blue sky, blue sea and golden beaches, clean beaches guard the cove like a half-string moon, and the sea water rises one after another and then falls back. It is much more beautiful than Bali and Hawaii beaches.
When Qin Shiou saw this beach for the first time, he fell in love with it. He stopped wandering with Old James. He found a reef on the beach barefoot and sat down, and stayed quietly for half an afternoon.
In the evening, Qin Shiou bought some fried meat, grilled fish and other foods at the fisherman fast food restaurant on the shore. When he returned to the Seagull, he happened to see the warship bird Nimitz flying into the cabin.
This made him a little nervous and hurried in. Because Nimitz had been hurt by the golden eagle at the beginning, he had always been full of hatred towards the eagles.
During the day, Qin Shiou noticed that it kept looking at Bush with sharp eyes, but Qin Shiou was in charge of the situation, so Nimitz didn't dare to do it.
When Qin Shiou ran to the door, he saw that Nimitz really wanted to behave badly to Bush. His feathers exploded, which was a signal that it wanted to launch an attack.
On the sofa, the tiger and the leopard were lying lazily, waving their tails to watch the fun. They were also very dissatisfied with Bush. Qin Shiou had not played with them all day long, and they blamed Bush.
Bush squatted on the wood powder. It opened its eyes wide and tilted its head to look at Nimitz. It looked down at itself. There seemed to be doubt brewing in its dark little eyes.
Speaking of which, the little Bush with gray-brown feathers now does not look like a white-headed eagle, but is a bit like a young bird like Nimitz - the female bird of the big warship. For example, Nimitz, the feathers are not pure black, but rusty brown.
Nimitz screamed "rattle", stretching his wings to make an attack. Bush, little, also screamed twice when he heard its cry, got up and ran towards Nimitz shakingly.
Qin Shiou was about to stop him, but Nimitz did not attack. When he saw Bush running towards him, he quickly jumped back.
As a result, the claws of the big warship bird were not strong enough, and the jump was tragically staggering and falling down. It was really embarrassing.
Nimitz flapped his wings and got up, Bush slammed on him, screaming in his mouth, and his little head kept drilling into Nimitz's arms.
I guess Nimitz was stunned. He originally wanted to kill this little eagle, but what the hell is that the other party is so attached to him?
Nimitz flapped his wings and stretched his neck to make a fierce "rattle" scream. Bush also screamed "rattle". The sound was a bit like that, and he still rubbed towards Nimitz, making Nimitz at a loss.
Qin Shiou laughed. Bush was too young and might be a little stupid. He actually regarded Nimitz as his mother. This was undoubtedly the reaction of the little bird when he found the mother bird.
Nimitz was rubbed by Bush Jr. He couldn't run away now, and he couldn't spread his wings to fly in the cabin space. If he had to run his legs, he would not be able to run even if he had insufficient leg strength. Even the bald eagle birds...
The claws of the bald eagles are much stronger. Their soles are as rough as sandpaper. They can grab big fish weighing dozens of kilograms on the water surface, and can run and jump in the jungle to chase squirrels.
So, even if Bush is just a young eagle, Nimitz can still chase after him honestly.
Nimitz stopped unhappily after running for a few steps. Bush crawled under its wings and whispered in a low voice. After getting in, he stopped coming out. The nest built by Qin Shiou made it with wood powder was a waste.
When Hu Zi and Leopard saw that they couldn't fight, they were exhausted. They licked the hair on their heads with their tongues. Don't think they were clean. This was Labrador who used saliva to wet their hair to dissipate heat.
Qin Shiou smiled and went up to touch the little guys one by one, and pulled Nimitz's wings and touched Bush. But Bush didn't buy it and retreated under Nimitz's wings.
Nimitz seemed to accept his fate and squatted on the ground dejectedly, not refusing Bush's intimate behavior.
In the evening, Charles and others came to Qin Shiou and asked him why he didn't go fishing today. Qin Shiou said I need to take a break, and it would be enough to have Shaq and the others go out to sea.
This made Charles and his group envious. They went out to sea to fish for survival, while Qin Shiou was for fun. The gap was too big.
Before leaving, Charles and others asked Qin Shiou where he would go tomorrow. Qin Shiou didn't play with any mystery and said directly that he would go to George's Shoal.
To get this answer, Charles and several fishermen hope to use the Snowball ice cabin to store some ice cubes. Because their fishing boats cannot save ice cubes for two days and two nights, they have to return to the port every day, which is a waste of fuel, so they will need 400 yuan of diesel for a while.
The Snowball is different. Its ice cabin is made of polyurethane hard foam material and can store ice for more than five days.
In this way, as long as ice can be replenished from the Snowball, Charles and his group will not have to return every day.
Afterwards, Shaq and others also returned. (To be continued)
