Golden Fishery
v2 Chapter 295: Encounter with compatriots
Qin Shiou did what he said, and since he had promised to join the basketball team in the town, he couldn’t miss the appointment.
Furthermore, apart from going out to sea all day long and blowing the sea breeze, he is also a little boring, and it’s not bad to play basketball.
Farewell there is no training hall in the town. The basketball team is practicing on the street basketball court.
At noon, the sun was blazing and the basketball court was empty. Little Hughes was shirtless and played by himself. Qin Shiou dunked a basket at random and ran to the door of Hughes's grocery store when he felt too dry.
Qin Shiou’s vision is okay. Although there are only two groups of customers in China, the sales of this grocery store are not low, especially American ginseng, which sells the best.
These American ginsengs, when Hughes bought them from the Rocky Mountain Sioux tribe, a pair cost only ten to one hundred yuan, and it was sold in a grocery store, and one could sell for five hundred to five thousand yuan without bargaining. .
In addition, the Sioux statues and various furs are also sold very well. Pieces of fur were sold out by the girls. Zhong Chuchu bought five sets of snow fox fur and two sets of mink fur at the time.
Little Hughes himself is quite savvy. He added a business, which is to rent bows and arrows and spearguns.
The ordinary longbows and short bows handcrafted by the people in the town were all engraved with Indian-style patterns and letters after he bought them, and they uniformly declared that they were bows and arrows for hunting by Indian Sioux people. This kind of bow and arrow feels poor and has poor accuracy, but the rent for each one is expensive, and tourists are still happy.
Not long after Qin Shiou entered the grocery store, a small group of three members walked in. Seeing Qin Shiou, the couple was taken aback. Asked: "Where is the boss?"
Subconsciously, they all used Chinese and thought that Qin Shiou was also a tourist.
Qin Shiou explained with a smile, saying that the boss is his friend. Playing basketball on the streets, he is an immigrant here.
The couple introduced themselves. The man is a small business owner and the woman is a housewife. The daughter is six years old, just in the first grade of elementary school, taking advantage of the summer vacation to travel abroad.
"I heard that this newly opened line is very good, not only the scenery is good, but also fishing, fishing, hunting in the mountains, sailing and so on, we came. It turned out that this small town is really nice and the people are very nice. There is no induced consumption or compulsory consumption." The man named Li Delong said with a smile.
The little girl looked at Qin Shiou curiously, and asked, "Are you also Chinese, uncle?"
Qin Shiou nodded and smiled: "Yes, my uncle is also Chinese, and he lives here now."
The little girl nodded charmingly, and sighed. Said: "If I could live here, there are so many small animals, I also ran into a deer yesterday. Most importantly, I don't want to go back to school."
Qin Shiou was amused by her, and said: "That's not good, you have to go to school, uncle is to study well, and later got admitted to the university here and stayed. If you study well in the future, you can also get admitted to the university here."
The little girl was very disappointed, pouting her lips: "Huh? There is a school here too?"
Li Delong handed a cigarette to Qin Shiou. The latter shook his head. He put it in his mouth and asked, "Can you smoke?"
"It's okay, you can smoke everywhere in the farewell town, there is not so much attention here." Qin Shiou said.
Li Delong lit a smoke ring. Said: "That's good, after we arrived. A very beautiful tour guide told us that there is nothing taboo except for littering. This is much better than those Bali and Hawaii tourist routes, so it is not to go. On vacation is to go to jail. You can’t do this, you can’t touch that, it’s boring!"
"You should smoke less." The young woman who had been curiously watching the statue and animal fur turned her head and said.
Li Delong smiled, hid beside Qin Shiou and continued smoking.
Qin Shiou watched the little girl staring at a small short-tailed cat specimen, so he took it and gave it to her to play with. Li Delong asked, "How much is this?"
Qin Shiou looked at the label at the back, grinned quietly in his heart, and said, "Five hundred and fifty yuan."
This little bobtail cat specimen is a doll after the Sioux caught the bobtail and emptied the meat. The remaining fur is stuffed into cotton and stitched up, and the eyes are replaced with plastic beads. It is a doll. However, the craftsmanship of the Sioux people is very good, and the repairing of the little bobcat is vivid, which is not comparable to ordinary toys.
Those who can travel abroad are wealthy people. If you put it together, the price of this kitten is more than two thousand yuan. As a result, Li Delong took a look and found that it was a real beast skin, so he paid to buy it.
Qin Shiou said: “I don’t need to spend a game for a fellow villager. Five hundred yuan is OK.”
He remembered these specimens, many of them were given away for free by the Sioux people, because they sewed them when they were bored. Most of the animals that can be used as specimens are animals with useless fur, so in the eyes of the Sioux people, this thing is not valuable.
Qin Shiou felt that the money he made was not very reassuring. Later, the Li Delong family bought two more American ginsengs and were leaving. He took out a wooden pipe carving and handed it to Li Delong, saying: "Given it to you, keep it as a souvenir."
Li Delong accepted it, handed him a business card, and said, "Thank you, little brother, if you go to Kyoto another day, my brother will invite you to dinner."
The weather was a bit cooler in the afternoon. Hughes and others came out for training in their jerseys, and then Qin Shiou ran out.
Hughes explained to him that the summer league is an amateur game, so each game is not divided into four quarters and 48 minutes, but two halves, 20 minutes each, the team is configured to five starters and three substitutes.
At the basketball court, Hughes introduced Qin Shiou. In addition to the three of them, the remaining five are:
The descendants of German immigrants, big center Guderian Barbic, repair shop owner and strong power forward Johnson Zard, Grant Elementary School physical education teacher Harlan Lawrence, geography teacher Mark Wiley, and another one is The college student of St. John's is called Gordon Clyde.
Amateur team, the training is relatively simple, that is, everyone understands each other and runs in and finds a tacit understanding.
Except for Xiao Hughes, the other team's Qin Shiou's style of play is not well understood. Hughes is a little worried and said: "Qin, you try to communicate with us as much as possible. We must learn more about you, otherwise the next game will be difficult to play. "
Xiao Hughes laughed and said: "Qin's style of play is well understood, that is, I dribble to him, and he will solve the score. You just need to pull out and play by yourself."
The others laughed, thinking Hughes was joking.
But soon, they couldn't laugh anymore.
The score was allocated for a half-basket match. Hughes passed the ball to Qin Shiou. He got the ball outside the three-point line, facing Lawrence's defense, and quickly changed hands with a flash of his shoulder.
Lawrence was taken aback, Qin Shiou immediately shot out like an arrow from the string, no one reacted, no one could make up for defense, Qin Shiou rushed into the basket, grabbed the ball with one hand and jumped into the air, his arm waved like a battle axe, making a bang. Smash the ball into the hoop.
Attacked again, Lawrence defended closely, Qin Shiou bumped back, and Lawrence couldn't bear his strength when he felt like he was crushed by a car, so he couldn't help but retreat.
With space, Qin Shiou rushed again, rushed to the bottom of the basket to defend Johnson, and made a throw after jumping and hit.
is still Qin Shiou's possession of the ball. Lawrence didn't dare to get too close, so he let go of him one step to prevent him from breaking through. Qin Shiou smiled slightly, raised his feet, his arms raised flat, his wrists shook softly, and he pulled out a jumper!
'Shoo', with a crisp sound, the basketball cleverly penetrated into the net.
Little Hughes shrugged, and said: "Is it necessary to continue running in?" (to be continued~^~)
