Chapter 2115： Pre-wedding party trip

"Go, I won't go." Luo Yue's words are a bit like a trap.

The desperate Yang Cheng didn't make a difference at all, "If I don't go or go, I won't go to kill me~"

"Go go, I'm not kidding." Luo Yue said again.

Yang Cheng shook her head vigorously, "No way, can't you just worry about me?"

Luo Yue gave him a scorn, "I don't worry about you, I don't see it."

In fact, Yang Cheng still has an idea in his heart. A few months ago, William including David Ellison had booked his pre-wedding party. He had been dragging it out before, because he was afraid that Luo Yue would think about it.

But she doesn't seem to mind right now, then. . .

Secretly observing Luo Yue's winks, he tentatively asked, "Then I will go around?"

Luo Yue couldn't laugh or cry, "Go and go~"

Yang Cheng is like a child who has received a Christmas gift. He picked up his mobile phone and sent a message to David Ellison: Hurry up and arrange it, my pre-wedding party.

However, there are still some things to do before the pre-wedding party. His Emerald Yacht has already set off from Los Angeles to the Fiji Islands in advance with some relatives and friends. Grandpa Yang Cheng, Yang Yuanshan, is sitting on the boat and is expected to arrive about three days before the wedding. .

The expedition yacht also went to sea for the final sea trial more than half a month ago, and rushed all the way to the Fiji Islands, which was officially delivered on the wedding day.

Since the yacht was launched into the sea, it has won widespread media attention. All-pervasive reporters have long dug out the owner of this luxurious expedition yacht. As a result, Yang Cheng has once again made the headlines of the major media.

Especially in the Chinese world, he has a big name. His superyacht, which has not been publicly named, basically locked the title of the No. 1 yacht in the Chinese world. Many people who did not pay much attention to the financial news before, also know this time. In the United States, there is such a rich young Chinese man.

For this reason, Yang Cheng had a headache for a long time and made countless calls before the media pressed the news down.

It’s the reason he was educated since he was a child. It’s nothing more than an entertainment star, but this is a city, and it’s almost finished. Does it make sense to be famous? Wait for the next plane to consider Wang Batian's routine.

. . .

The pre-wedding party is too dull and boring. You must play some tricks, but this is something David Ellison needs to consider. Yang Cheng doesn't need to pay a penny, just wait for the surprise.

So 10 days before the wedding officially began, Yang Cheng took a small private jet temporarily leased by David Ellison, joined William and the others, and flew together to the north of Canada.

This makes Yang Cheng very curious, is it going to see the Aurora? It would be boring if it was just that.

Fortunately, the young model in the same company gave Yang Cheng a little comfort. This young Chinese model has just made her debut and has not yet officially appeared on stage. She is very immature in all aspects. There is no need to doubt that the female companion of this trip was found by Xiao Li. Who else is the resource?

The plane finally landed in the famous Dawson City in Canadian history. At the moment of landing, Yang Cheng's curiosity was completely aroused. He originally thought that he was going to see the Aurora, but since he chose to land in Dawson, it must be more than just watching the Aurora. It's that simple.

Canada’s three regions are located in the icy, sparsely populated Arctic, and the Yukon is called the "most strange area" by many Canadians. Because of its remoteness and inconvenient transportation, Dawson is the former capital of the Yukon.

"Yukon cold" not only refers to the weather, but also refers to desertedness, calmness, and a unique "high cold" temperament.

However, it gets "hot" as soon as summer arrives. Dawson, the second largest city in Yukon, with a resident population of only a few thousand, welcomes at least 60,000 tourists every summer. What attracts them is that the sun never sets. And other natural landscapes, there are historical heritage left by the North American Gold Rush era.

There are quaint old-fashioned buildings on both sides of the sparsely treed streets. The oldest casino in Canada is crowded with people who "gamble for pleasure" or watch the Cancan dancers. The streets are crowded with people and cars. "Gold Rush" era.

Although it has entered summer, the temperature in Dawson is only a little over 20 degrees Celsius, and the magnificent Palace Theater is overflowing with musical melody.

Outside the city, the ancient boardwalk is full of pedestrians, and on the famous Zanghong Cliff, people overlook the entire city and the confluence of the Yukon and Crendale rivers.

The "Midnight Building" erected at an altitude of 880 meters, people linger here just to watch the unique "sunset that never sets"-due to its location in the Arctic region, the summer nights here are extremely short.

From the city, although the sun will set for a few hours on most days, when you stand on the top of the "Midnight Building", you will be surprised to find that the setting sun does not set, but lies quietly in the desolate Augrivière in the distance. Among the mountains, it didn't take long to jump out again, but lazily refused to hang on people's heads.

In addition to "the sun never sets", the "gold rush" is also a major tourist attraction in Dawson. Many buildings in the previous gold rush era have changed their uses: the largest female branch at the time, known as the "Golden Grotto", has now become Dawson One of the two most famous high-end hotels. During the peak tourist season, the residents are mainly "parent-child travel" families. I don't know if those mothers and children know that the beautiful hotel was used for such ambiguous purposes;

The former courthouse on Fifth Avenue has now become the Dawson City Museum. Here you can see a series of antiques and “fake antiques”: iron shops, shops, gold diggers’ cabins, bars, mining trains... everything Retain or restore to what it looked like during the gold rush.

The old central hotel is still there, and the church still has the sound of singing and music from time to time. There are fewer bars, casinos and restaurants, but many are still open. There are still people betting, drinking, and watching Cancan dances in summer evenings.

This city that emerged from the gold rush is still eating the dividends after the gold rush has faded.

In 1896, gold diggers converged in Dawson with a population of 500, and then went deep into the wilderness, digging through the hard frozen soil, looking for the gold in their dreams. Two years later, Dawson’s population expanded to more than 30,000, and tall warehouses were built here. In the building, row upon row of pubs, nightclubs, casinos and women’s branches emerged.

Gold panning in the Arctic is hard and boring. Gold prospectors usually dig in the cold wilderness, try their luck, consume energy and life, and return to Dawson in their leisure time to spend a lot of money. Therefore, the various entertainment venues here never lacked patrons.

In order to attract customers, many casinos and bars from far away California and Mexico have spent a lot of money to invite passionate girls, put on big skirts, and dance the exciting Cancan dance, this tropical dance, Since then it has become the "signature" of the polar city Dawson.

Later, a magnificent court building and a magnificent cathedral were built here.

The famous American Jack London took a boat during the hottest time of the gold rush in 1897 and drifted 800 kilometers along the Yukon River to Dawson, where he produced a series of inspirations and created a series of popular titles such as "The Call of the Wild" "Gold Rush".

Now in Dawson, the door of Jack London’s former residence is still quietly half open for tribute. Yang Cheng and the others also went. In his words, he "visited Jack London’s former residence with the mentality of worshiping the temple of wealth." of.

However, the good times did not last long. The gold rush had ebbled since 1899. By the end of the 1970s, Dawson had finally become a small town with a population of only a thousand.

However, if you follow the footsteps of the former gold diggers and go further south into the wilderness, you can see more relics of the former gold diggers, such as the most famous mining machine No. 4 near Grand Forks. It was known as the "king of luck", and the myth of the gold rush was mostly related to this mining machine.

If you don’t want to run too far, you can go to the riverside and take a look at the well-renovated .Keno ship. Because of the betrayal of Canadian interests to the British, and the private agreement with the United States, Yukon has become close to the ocean but nothing The provinces and regions with an inch of coastline are dissatisfied. Today’s Dawsons like to talk about the waterways of the gold rush (because they came from within Canada), but they are more concerned about the “Gold Rush Road” that is actually more frequently used and enters the United States. "I don't want to mention more.

In fact, the gold here is not exhausted. To this day, the outer suburbs of Dawson and the cold mountains and wilderness are still producing gold continuously.

It's just that it has long since gone from the primitive gold rush of singles or "mutual aid groups" to a group operation of big companies and big capital.

The age of gold diggers is gone. Dawson’s prosperity is gone forever. The short and lively summer will pass, and it will be shrouded in the long cold night unique to high latitudes. Thousands of tourists leave. The music festival The sound stopped, even the Dawson City Museum will be closed for half a year.

But Yang Cheng was too lazy to think about the desolation and loneliness after the tourists had dispersed. He devoted himself to this pre-wedding party trip carefully planned by David Ellison.

Not long after landing, according to the plan, they used Dawson's ancient tradition to open the chapter of the party.

The so-called tradition is that people who come to Dawson must go to the bar in the city center, UU reading www.uukanshu. com tried a sour toe cocktail. This is a local specialty. Only the most courageous people dare to taste this somewhat appalling wine. It is a real human toe, shriveled toe like a mummy!

Each challenger must put the real person's toe in the spirits and drink it with one mouthful, and the toe must touch the lips, which means that they will be very lucky in the future and will receive a certificate proving that they are members of the Sour Toe Cocktail Association. . .

The sour toe cocktail has been in Dawson City for decades. It was created by Dick Stephenson, the captain of a Yukon cruise ship. One day in September 1973, he found a piece of ice on the cabin floor. A broken toe, and then there was this somewhat disgusting idea of ​​drinking a cocktail.

He said to the public that "people who dare to drink this glass of wine and let their toes touch their lips will be rewarded." Since then, this activity has begun.

Now the "Sour Toe Cocktail" challenge is held every year. Because the toes are soaked in wine for many years, there will never be any hygiene problems.

Nowadays, there are more than 20,000 members of the Sour Toe Cocktail Association, and a total of 9 toes were accidentally swallowed by alcoholics, including a 91-year-old man...
