Chapter 705

A lot of garbage piled up behind the farm building. Qin Shiou and Duoduo picked up the little bullies and let the garbage truck go in to clean up.

The little bullies stretched out their heads and legs, looked dissatisfied, and had to go on to show their bravery. Qin Shiou smiled and gave them brain collapse one by one, let them sit on the grass and began to teach them the first lesson of life.

The driver of the garbage truck was a middle-aged white man in his 60s. When he was ready to leave, Mao Weilong said, "John Pu, I will have a beer barbecue party in the evening. Do you have time? Will you come and join us? "

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

When the white John Pu left, Mao Weilong explained to Qin Shiou: "this is my neighbor in the south. People in the town call him old John. He is very friendly. He has the only garbage truck in the town, so he will help deal with the garbage regularly. These days, he helps to deal with the garbage on my side. There is no money. "

"Shit, did you run into Canada?" Qin Shiou said in surprise.

Although he is doing so well in saying goodbye to the town, in fact, when he first arrived on the island, although the villagers were friendly to him, they would not help him work for free, because Canadians advocate equal pay. If you don't pay others, why would they help you?

Mao Weilong said with a smile: "he usually charges for garbage disposal. I belong to a new customer. He said he would give me a discount and help me clean up the garbage in the first half of the month."

"Of course, I didn't ask him for help in vain. I sent 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 supplement the materials needed for the evening party. Mao Weilong called to invite people he knew after coming to the town. At the same time, they were also welcome to bring friends to the dinner.

It costs a lot of money to set up a farm and buy furniture. Mao Weilong has never bought a car. In the past, the farmer had an old pickup truck and temporarily used that car to fill the bill.

As a result, the old pickup truck didn't give face. It happened to break down in the morning. Liu Shuyan had to take the bus to Hamilton. She couldn't carry it alone. Qin Shiou asked blossoms to accompany the little bullies for fun. He went to help.

"Why don't you borrow a car?" Qin Shiou asked, "you should have a good relationship with that johanpu?"

Liu Shuyan said with a wry smile: "johanpu doesn't have a car suitable for us to drive. He is a garbage truck except for an agricultural vehicle. Sometimes he drives a garbage truck when he goes to Hamilton."

Qin Shiou is awed. Why are you such a loser, master wocao.

Speaking of neighborhood relations, Liu Shuyan was a little helpless and said, "we only know our neighbors now. We don't have any friends yet. It's difficult to borrow a car."

It's true that Canadians have great feelings for their cars, because almost all parts of the country are sparsely populated and cannot travel without cars except the city center. Besides, what if something happens when I borrow a car? The Canadian traffic police don't have the driver's license. They will look for the owner of the car in case of an accident.

I have no choice but to take the bus.

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

The reason for this is that in Canada, private cars have become a necessity of every family life, as common as dishes and chopsticks. Except in big cities, taxis are basically reservation service, and the price is very high.

Liu Shuyan said that in their small town, the taxi cost to be borne by passengers is equivalent to the round-trip cost, and the return cost must also be included in the passengers. It is still because the villages and towns in Canada are vast and sparsely populated, and it is impossible for taxi drivers to pull guests back.

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

They went to a wooden sign at the intersection of the street and stood. Qin Shiou was very curious when he took the township bus in Canada for the first time. He looked at the number '0505' written on the wooden sign and asked curiously, "why is there a number? Shouldn't there be a station name? "

"No, there is no station name for township buses, which is different from that in China. They all use the station number on the brand instead." Liu Shuyan patiently explained.

Qin Shiou said in surprise, "no, what about reporting to the station? Passengers memorize all these station numbers? "

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

Mao Weilong has long had no illusions about the old pickup truck. He bought a bus ticket to deal with possible emergencies and used it today.

Hamilton's bus ticket price is relatively expensive. For adults, it is C $3.5 per ticket. If you buy ten tickets at one time, you can get a 20% discount, while for students, you can get a 50% discount. Liu Shuyan explained that you can usually buy them at the counters of supermarkets, pharmacies and convenience stores.

Canada's municipal construction is very developed, which ranks high in the world. The embodiment from the bus is that although there are few people on a bus, the number of trips is not reduced.

Liu Shuyan came to wait for the bus. She and Qin Shiou came under the stop sign for a few minutes, and an orange bus came.

Compared with domestic and large city buses, urban buses are small, only the size of domestic minibuses, and use cheaper natural gas fuel, in order to reduce transportation pressure.

There are only 16 seats in this minibus, but the seats are relatively spacious and comfortable, which can be regarded as making passengers earn high fares.

Qin Shiou found a seat to sit down and said with a smile, "yes, it's still a soft seat."

Liu Shuyan smiled and said, "this is the car of constellation bus company. Their tickets are a little more expensive, but they are more comfortable. They are mainly aimed at tourists. Many people like to take their car to visit villages and towns."

When the car started, the 16 seats were only half taken along the way. Qin Shiou looked at the wheat fields, orchards and pastures outside with great interest and felt that everything was very fresh.

The minibus only drove into Hamilton, not to the Wal Mart supermarket they were going to, so they had to change trains.

Qin Shiou wanted to take a taxi. After entering the city, there were more taxis. Liu Shu said with a smile: "in front of us is the light rail station, or take the light rail? A direct to Wal Mart is faster than a taxi. "

Since the ladies said they would ride light rail, Qin Shi could not refuse. He wanted to take a taxi instead of suffering. He thought it was more convenient and time saving. His memory of the light rail and subway was the sardine canned when he went to Kyoto and Shanghai.
