Golden Fishery
v2 Chapter 642: .Owner’s Trip to Fishery
Preston College, if you are not familiar with English, you may hear it as Princeton, a world-renowned private research university and one of the eight Ivy League schools.
However, this is not the case. Preston College here is just a very ordinary college in St. John's. In fact, the entire Newfoundland Province, except for the Memorial University of Newfoundland, other schools are terrible...
Qin Shiou thinks that these two people may be a little troublesome. It has something to do with the academic system of Canadian universities. This must first introduce the vacation situation of Canadian universities.
For undergraduates in Canadian universities, the summer vacation usually has a total of 4 months of 5, 6, 7, and 8, and the summer vacation for college students is very long.
During this vacation, students have many choices. They can choose to take more courses during the summer vacation and strive for early graduation; they can carry out school trips and go to surrounding cities to develop tourism activities to increase their horizons; they can also choose to take vacations and work.
So it seems that it is common for college students to work part-time in June, but there is a prerequisite, that is, undergraduate universities, which is not the case for junior colleges like Preston College.
For junior colleges, June is a very important day, because they generally open three long courses in January, May, and September.
September is a big class, all universities, regardless of undergraduate or junior college, will start all majors, January is a small start, and some majors will start at this time. There are fewer classes in May, but classes are often aimed at international students, that is, students like Wang Lei and Yao Lili. Not surprisingly, they should go to school in June and have no time to work out.
Now that the two have time to go out to work, Qin Shiou judges that they are repeating students.
What is a repeat student? This is a special name, as the name implies, it is an international student who has repeated a grade. But this kind of students is different from domestic repeaters, they are transfer students.
As we all know, domestic universities have expanded their enrollment so much that as long as they have some ability, students can be admitted to an undergraduate school. At this time, those who study abroad are either very academically admitted and accepted by foreign schools, or the family wants them to go abroad to study a more powerful university.
If you come to St. John's to study, you basically come to Memorial University of Newfoundland.
Memorial University of Newfoundland is the only comprehensive public university in Newfoundland. It is one of the top universities in Canada and a world-renowned university.
Same as other schools in North America. The Memorial University of Newfoundland is easier to enter, but it is difficult to get out, and it is not so easy to graduate. It has strict academic requirements for students, and is different from American universities. If its students have missed courses during the summer vacation, You must retake and pass before you can go to the next semester.
If you fail to retake the exam during the summer vacation, you have to keep on repairing it.
In this way, some international students see that they have missed too many subjects or feel that they can’t go through the retakes. Will choose to drop out. However, domestic families send their children to study abroad, often with great momentum. It is embarrassing for families to send their children out of school and to be eliminated without a graduation certificate. In this case, repeat students will appear.
Students of this kind tend to see that they are hopeless to upgrade after the exams in May each year. Then transfer to some ordinary undergraduate or junior colleges that are easier to graduate, and go to school. You have to take a graduation certificate and go home, right?
In this way, for example, Wang Lei and Yao Lili should have transferred to the junior college, so they don't need to install the normal school system of the junior college to go to school in June, but can prepare for the official start of school in September.
Sure enough, Qin Shiou asked about their academic status when they chatted, and the two admitted not ashamed that they had come to the Memorial University of Newfoundland for a year and ended up failing major courses. And it is difficult to pass. So he managed to transfer school by himself and went to Preston College.
Because they feel sorry for the family, the two are too embarrassed to ask for money from the family, so they want to take advantage of the summer vacation to work part-time to earn some money.
The first choice for working in St. John’s is the fishing grounds. They found out that there was a very powerful Chinese fisherman on Farewell Island, so they thought of him here for help.
Qin Shiou thought for a while. There is also a lot of work in the fishing grounds in summer, and the two of them will definitely not be able to work at sea, so let them take care of the grass in the fishing ground, help trim the lawn, clean up the vegetable garden and the orchard. Originally, he had to hire people to do these tasks, just like these two people.
But Qin Shiou put the ugly words on the front: "The fishery work is not good, I will give you 800 Canadian dollars per week, but if you can't do it, then I can only fire you."
Getting Qin Shiou’s promise, Wang Lei nodded vigorously and said: "Direction, Brother Qin, both of us are from worker families and can endure hardships. If you have anything to do, you can do it. We will work hard to do it for you."
Qin Shiou saw that the two of them were carrying their luggage, so he asked Shake to clean up the two fisherman’s apartments, but Wang Lei said that one would do. They were lovers.
Set up the two of them. Qin Shiou gave them a short holiday to adjust. Today and tomorrow, they don’t need to work but they are paid. Let them take a stroll in the fishing grounds and familiarize themselves with the surrounding environment, so that the work in the future will get twice the result with half the effort.
After dealing with Wang Lei and Yao Lili's affairs, Qin Shiou dragged a recliner to cool off in the shade of the trees and enjoy the early summer sea breeze.
As a result, there are a lot of things today, and he is destined to be unable to take the sea breeze leisurely.
Shortly after he sat down, a call came from an unfamiliar number from Ottawa.
Qin Shiou was suspiciously connected, and asked: "Daiqin Fishery, Qin Shiou, hello, who is it? If you want to sell something, it is better to hang up the phone. I don’t lack anything at home."
A gentle female voice sounded: "Mr. Qin, hello, have you participated in the protest march of the St. John’s Fishermen’s Master last month?"
After hearing this, Qin Shiou muttered in his heart, damn, isn’t it that bad luck? The Canadian government still plays the trick of post-autumn accounting? But there was nothing terrible about this kind of thing, so he confessed it generously.
After he confirmed, the phone said: "I am Julia Joant, the head of external relations of the Ministry of Fisheries and Oceans. This is Mr. Qin. Since your protests, we have been thinking of ways to deal with your problems. Confused questions and ease the relationship between fishermen. For this reason, we decided to hold a short-term educational trip at the end of June. Do you have time to participate?"
Qin Shiou understands that this is the effect of the protest. The Ministry of Fisheries probably wants to organize a social event to gather the owners of traditional fishing grounds and holiday fishing grounds together. Everyone has food and drink, hello and me.
Thinking about this, Qin Shiou was dissatisfied. The crows in the world are generally black. The Canadian government has won the true legend of the Chinese leadership, and has a good skill in muddy mud.
He didn't want to accept such a result, so he simply refused, saying that he had no time.
After hanging up the phone, he lay down for about half an hour. Just after he was confused, the phone rang again.
Qin Shiou frowned and looked at the number. He was still calling from Ottawa, and then angrily answered the phone, and said, "I said I will not participate, OK? I have an urgent matter, I am very busy, and I have a lot of work on the fishing ground!" Continued~^~)
