1436. Landing in the extreme north (1/5, thanks to the leader oujun107
ps: Thanks to the love of brothers and sisters, we have once again born a leader, Oujun107. The shell shell worked hard to save the draft and tried to pay off all the updates owed in the past two days. The main reason is that it was normal to explode at the end of the month, but the shell shell recently learned that there was a game called "The Sims" that can help with writing, so I have been fiddling in the past two days, but the shell shell has been fiddling in the past two days, but the otakus doesn't understand it, and it's not done well now. I don't know if there are any brothers and sisters playing, please contact me and have a bullet case. ****
Qin Shiou walked out of the hotel and saw Peterson and others coming. He gathered with the fishermen to discuss. He asked strangely: "What are you discussing? Hurry up and see the weather. If allowed, start going out to sea tomorrow and catch me a batch of king crabs."
Shaq said: "B is lucky, and the next week is calm. I admit that there may be no problem. What we are discussing now is winter swimming."
The sun had already come out and hung in the air, but it was not as bright as Qin Shiou was familiar with. Here, the sunlight seemed to become weak and there was no heat at all.
In fact, he regretted coming here. Greenland was too cold. If he had known this place was as cold as this bird, he wouldn't have come to see the aurora. It would be great to take Winnie and her children to the Great Barrier Reef to bask in the sun.
At about this time last year, he attended the annual meeting of Yuntong Group. After that, every time this season comes, he misses the warm sunshine and clear sea water of the Great Barrier Reef.
Greenland has a clear ocean that is no worse than the Great Barrier Reef, but the temperature is too far away.
Qin Shiou looked up at the lazy sun and said in confusion: "Man, what did you say just now? Winter swimming? Haha, I bet that in this damn weather, your bone marrow can freeze any longer when you go into the water."
Although he did not look at the thermometer, he estimated that the outdoor temperature is at least minus ten degrees Celsius.
Shaq rubbed his hands and said, "I think so too, that's how Peterson responded."
It seemed that Qin Shiou and his party did not dare to go into the water in such weather, so Peterson and others were very happy. They all showed their winning expressions. Peterson said: "Man, such a day is a rare good weather on Artu Island. Why don't we swim in the sea for two laps? We are all tough guys. Right?"
"Yes, but not a lunatic." Qin Shiou rolled his eyes disdainfully.
Peterson and others walked towards the harbor in thick cotton coats. Seeing that they were really going to swim at the risk of being frozen into popsicles, Shaq and others found it interesting and followed.
Qin Shiou called Shaq, called him and Geng Junjie into the house, and said, "Winie and I are going to Frederick to take to see the aurora. Leave the crabbing here to you. Shaq, have you recorded the route of the reef waters?"
Shaq nodded and said, "Yes, Boss, don't worry, go and play. Leave it here to me, there must be no problem."
Qin Shiou warned them some precautions at sea and asked Shakduo to pay more attention to Geng Junjie and his party. Then he went to the hotel owner and asked him what way he could go to Frederick Tundra.
As soon as he heard his words, the boss guessed his purpose and said, "Do you want to see the aurora, right? There is still a distance between the tundra here, but you can take a small plane, which is the best way to get to Frederick's tundra."
In addition to the roads inside several major cities, Greenland has 95% of the island's territory, and it is transported by dogs sleds or small planes. This island has the most unique ice airport in the world.
Qin Shiou arranged the work on the fishing boat and took advantage of the good weather. At noon that day, he took Winnie's children, and the five Black Knife boarded a small plane and flew directly to the largest city in Frederick Tundra, Ilulisat.
Ilulisat may not be called a city, and there is no strict city in Greenland. It can only be said to be a place of population gathering. Ilulisat is the third largest settlement here, with a population of about 4,000.
It is completely located in the Arctic Circle. Its name means "iceberg" in Latin, and it is the most popular tourist destination in Greenland because there is the gorgeous Ilulisat Ice Fjord nearby.
In addition to bodyguards, he also has to bring little guys like tiger, leopard, bear and wolf. The tundra is their home court. If they encounter any crisis on the tundra, they will be more reliable than humans.
Black-footed ferrets, lynxes, white wolves, Labradors and Colorado brown bears, these species are all species that can survive well in the snow.
Qin Shiou rented the largest biplane on Atu Island, took off at noon and flew northeast. Four hours later, in the darkness, there were stars of light below the plane.
"Is this Ilulisat?" Qin Shiou asked as he looked down.
The pilot said, "Yes, this is the beautiful Aurora City of course. I don't know how its name came about. There are only a thousand families in this place, and it was still a barren land more than ten years ago."
When getting off the plane, Qin Shiou noticed that snowflakes began to fall in the sky. He reached out to pick up a few and found that the snowflakes here were different from those in St. Johns. The snowflakes were very hard. Looking at the incandescent lamps at the airport, it felt extra crystal clear.
Qin Shiou looked at his watch and it was four:30 pm, but the sky here was already very dark.
Seeing him looking at the time, the pilot smiled and said, "Time is useless here. Sir, you live here and follow your feelings."
Qin Shiou thanked him, and a burly man wearing a Soviet military coat walked over quickly and waved to him, "Is Mr. Qin from Atu Island?"
"It's me, man." He went up and shook hands with the man. They stayed in the airport hotel for the time being, and then went to find another hotel when there was a faint light tomorrow.
This burly middle-aged man was a hotel manager. He came to pick up Qin Shiou and others in person. For him, this was a big order. Such people and pets could spend $20,000 when they stayed in the hotel for a day!
After shook hands with Qin Shiou, the middle-aged man introduced himself: "I am Wentley, I'm very happy to know you, Mr. Qin, we may still be compatriots, right?"
Ventley is an Inuit, and he is of the same yellow race as the Chinese, and his appearance is very small. Now, some international genetic research shows that both parties have the same ancestors.
Qin Shiou said: "Yes, at least we look very similar. By the way, the weather seems to be getting worse. I'm watching it snowing?"
Ventley nodded and said, "You are lucky. If you are one hour later, the plane will not land well. It seems that a storm is coming. Let's go quickly. My wife has prepared hot coffee and hot tea."
In the Arctic Circle, weather forecasting is useless. Maybe a cold current will change direction when it hits an iceberg, which will bring about strong storms and snow, which cannot be predicted.
The snowflakes were falling all the time. The next day, it was almost noon before the sky became brighter. Qin Shiou looked out now, and there were still crystal snowflakes falling in the sky.
Taking advantage of the dawn, Qin Shiou, Weini and others were preparing to stroll around the small town and enjoy the scenery of the extreme north. (To be continued.)
