794. The big boss goes out

Qin Shiou waved his hand and asked, this cicada is a delicacy he is optimistic about. If he sprayed pesticides, it would be a waste and he would not be able to eat anything.

So, he said, "Man, is this not appropriate? Hegel said that existence is reasonable. Darwin also said that nature has the ability to self-regulate, and we must respect it. I mean, we can't do it too much, right? These insects also have the right to survive!"

Hamley spread his hands and said, "Hagel and Darwin have ever said, how can I be the mayor?"

"I also know that these cicadas have no impact on the town. We do not make a living by farming and forestry. They only suck sap and don't eat leaves. In fact, they are not considered pests except for being noisy. However, many provinces across the country are now carrying out cicada-killing activities. As a candidate, I have to cooperate, right?"

Qin Shiou frowned and thought for a while, and asked, "Okay, man, do you want to organize an event to go to the news and attract votes? But have you ever thought that this kind of news is destined to be news, because other provinces and cities are doing this, and what are the concerns we have after we do it?"

"But there is no way..."

"No, of course there is a way. Listen to me, we will do another activity to let people from the town collect cicada larvae. Without larvae, there will be no adults? Then, let's buy these larvae. How about it?"

"Who is so stupid to acquire larvae? Is the intention to hype too obvious?" Hamre shook his head.

However, his head only shook twice, and then he saw the serious expression on Qin Shiou's face clearly, pointed at him and said, "You won't say, come and take it?"

Yes. Qin Shiou came to buy these cicada insects, but it wouldn't be expensive anyway. Anyway, there is an ice warehouse in the fishing ground, and this thing can be stored for several years. Why don't he save it and eat it slowly? This is much better than fried fish, and it can be eaten with baked food.

Cicada insects are high in protein and are extremely prone to rot at room temperature. However, after refrigeration, the protein will not denaturate and then store for a long time.

When Qin Shiou was searching for cicadas for seventeen years, some Americans had frozen some cicadas seventeen years ago, and only took them out to eat them this year, saying that eating cicadas from seventeen years ago and listening to the cicadas from now on can help recall the past.

"Are you serious?"

“Very serious.”

Hamre frowned and nodded afterwards, "Okay, your hype like this can attract more attention. By the way, I heard from tourists a few days ago that you Chinese like to eat cicada insects, can this thing really be eaten?"

"Do you want racism?"

"No, I'm really confused. I heard that many Americans eat this thing, but they can really eat it?" Hamre was in disbelief.

Although cicadas are a pan-global species, they are mostly seen in tropical and temperate zones, and are rarely seen in the cold zone. The ones that can be seen in Canada are seventeen years of cicadas, and a large number of them appear every seventeen years. Therefore, they know very little about this insect, let alone someone eats it.

Qin Shiou explained briefly, and Hamre accepted it. He said, "Okay, when I go back, I will find someone to help you promote it. Then you can prepare your ice warehouse."

"There is another thing, that is, I will notify you. Your old friend, political ally, I, William Hamley, officially won the victory of the campaign! Congratulations to me, and congratulations to you, my good friend!" Hamley was full of confidence, and his figure was straight on the sofa, and he was full of energy for a moment.

Qin Shiou stared at him and said, "Did you suck a big man when you came?"

Hamre's enthusiasm disappeared and he said dissatisfied: "Dog shit, you don't know what I said during the election campaign. I have sworn to crack down on the flood of large ma planting after taking office! Strictly prohibit teenagers from contacting large ma!"

There have always been many people in Canada supporting the legalization of the big ma, but most of the supporters are teenagers and vested interests. Mature parents never support this behavior because they have experienced this stage and know the harm to their bodies.

Hamre insisted on illegal planting of big mahjong, and pleased these parents, so they had votes. As for those teenagers who were determined to play big mahjong, who cares? They don’t have votes in their hands.

Qin Shiou asked in surprise: "Since this is the case, the election has not begun in the end, why are you so confident?"

He understood Hamre's character, and he was a cautious person who insisted on the principle of "if the money is not in his pocket, it does not belong to him", so he found it difficult to understand why Hamre believed that he was elected?

Hamre smiled on his face and said, "Who do you guess it is the last campaign speech I invited?"

"Queen Elizabeth II?" Qin Shiou said curiously.

Queen Elizabeth II is the current ruler of the British Empire and the nominal ruler of Canada. Of course, she does not have enough presence in Canada, even if immigrants need to swear allegiance to her.

"No, it's even better than her. It's Mayor Hazel McCaulian!" Hamre said slowly, looking at the expression on Qin Shiou's face.

Qin Shiou satisfied his expectations. After hearing the name clearly, he took a breath and said in surprise: "Mayor Hazel McCaulian? Can you even invite her?!"

The name Hazel McCaulian is not very famous in Asia, but she is famous in North America, while in Canada, it can be regarded as the king of political popularity, and Queen Elizabeth II cannot compete with her.

This is a legendary name, and it represents a legendary woman. After Qin Shiou came to St. Johns, she was the most common politician. Especially when she stepped down last year, almost all media and radio stations reported her deeds.

McCorian is the former mayor of Mississauga and the past twelve mayors of Mississauga, and the longest re-elected mayor in Canadian history.

After being elected in 1978, McCaulian has since been re-elected and won the reputation of "Hazel Hurricane". Under her 36-year leadership, Mississauga has jumped from a collective of Canadian towns with only 172,000 people to the sixth largest city in Canada with 713,000 people.

Except for her first time running for mayor, McCaulian was a rival Ron Tassel who defeated by a slight advantage, she was easily chosen for the rest of the campaigns and no fierce challenges occurred.

What's amazing is that except for her first time running for mayor, McCaulian has never accepted political donations since because she is too famous and because her support rate in Mississauga is too high and she does not need the help of political funds.

Hamre can win such a person to help with the election, which is indeed a must-win situation.
