Chapter 679: The Festival Begins

There is actually no exact time for the Poseidon Festival. For example, last year, the Poseidon Festival was held in early summer, but this year it was held in early spring. ()

This is also meaningful, because when it is held, the things requested are different.

It was held in the summer last year, and all I asked for was peace and calm. Because there were no fish in Winthrop at that time, and there was no need to go to sea, so it was just summer. I asked for peace, and nothing else. Storms and the like.

But this year is different. There are tourists this year. Even if there are fewer fish in the sea, they still want to take tourists out to play.

Is this considered a source of income? So since the Chinese New Year, the town has decided that the Poseidon Festival will be held in March, just in time for the fishing season. Early that morning, all the residents in the town who were still idle, They all gathered in the small town.

As Mayor Wallis gave the order in the town square, the Poseidon Festival began, and Jiang Hai also cooperated to lift the huge fish tank.

In an instant, everyone started shouting, and I have to admit, it was quite impressive.

Then the person in charge of music in front opened the way, and the large group set off, and a group of people walked toward the seaside in a mighty manner.

The most dazzling person among the crowd was Jiang Hai, who was holding the fish tank. He had to admit that this was an honor.

But it’s actually quite tiring work. This fishing tank is not small. It can hold about ten kilograms of water. Plus the weight of the tank, it’s about twenty-five kilograms. Although it doesn’t seem like much, you have to do this all the way. It is impossible to say that you are not tired when you go to the beach with it.

There is no light thing in the distance. When Mayor Wallis is holding this thing, he can also change his position and so on. This is also a privilege for the elderly.

However, Jiang Hai was young and strong, and he was too embarrassed to change his position, so he just kept holding him.

Unlike yesterday's rehearsal, there were a lot of people today, so people walked very slowly. Fortunately, there were no other programs.

After walking for more than two hours, Jiang Hai and the others walked from the town to the seaside. Along the way, they not only attracted a large number of townspeople, but also many tourists. They were also very interested in the parade and took videos along the way. At the back of the line.

They were also very interested in the Atlantic blue dragon that Jiang Hai was holding, but unfortunately, the people in the town did not let them get too close. Although most of the tourists were ordinary people and kind-hearted people, But there will be those who like to make trouble and be bad.

If there is any damage to the blue dragon and the fish tank, there is no point in driving him out, so the best way is to keep tourists away.

Just let them watch from a distance, but this also makes these tourists feel very curious. Along the way, there are more and more people.

Fortunately, Jiang Hai's hard days will eventually come to an end. After walking for more than two hours, he finally arrived at the beach. After Mayor Wallis finished reciting the prayer, Jiang Hai also put the fish tank in. He went into the sea and watched the blue dragon in the fish tank swim into the sea. After completely disappearing, he also raised the empty fish tank. Then the townspeople also shouted loudly, which meant that the Poseidon had received their gifts. .

At this time, the Poseidon Festival was officially over. After Jiang Hai handed over the fish tank to the people in the town, he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, and then walked to a nearby tent to take a rest. This tent was specially designed yesterday. Prepared for him.

Just to prevent him from having a resting place when he is tired, it used to belong to Mayor Wallis, but now it belongs to Jiang Hai.

The tent itself is not small, let alone sitting, it can be used for lying down, even for two or three people.

Because Mayor Wallis would hold meetings here in the past, the tent is still very strong and of good quality. As long as the zipper is closed, you can see the outside from the inside, but you can't see from the outside. Not to the situation inside.

"How are you? Are you tired?" Today is the Poseidon Festival. Robbins-Garcia and Edward Anderson have things to do and can't come, but Qi Jie and the others still come over to watch the fun and look at Jiang Hai After sitting here in the tent, they all walked over with a smile.

"Huh, it's okay, but my arms are a little sore." Looking at them, Jiang Hai moved his arms and said to them with a smile.

Originally, Jiang Hai wanted them to massage his arms, but it was obvious that they didn't hear him, or they deliberately missed the last half of Jiang Hai's words. Instead, they started laughing and joking together.

"Okay, if you're tired, take a rest. We're going to visit the market over there." Ignoring Jiang Hai, Qi Jie said with a smile, and took Qi Ya and Darlene beside her. and Marianne went to the market over there. Of course, Azharina was always with them, otherwise Jiang Hai would not be at ease. Originally, Jiang Hai also wanted to go to the market to take a look, but now he is indeed Some of them were tired, so they were ready to take a rest, but before he lay down, another footsteps came from a distance.

"Hi, Jiang!" Hearing this voice, Jiang Hai turned around and took a look. A look of embarrassment flashed across his face for a moment, but he quickly put it away, and then smiled unnaturally, because he saw Looking at the woman in front of him, well, Jiang Hai is not that easy to deal with...

"What? You don't recognize me anymore?" Seeing Jiang Hai's tangled look, the girl didn't care and sat directly next to Jiang Hai. Then she said to Jiang Hai with a smile. After hearing her words, Jiang Hai He also touched his head, how could he not recognize him?

"How is it possible, Kelly, I haven't seen you recently..." Yes, the person in front of him is none other than Kelly Soren. When Jiang Hai was at Hoch Selsi's home, In the bathroom on the second floor, something happened with her and Delia George that should not have happened. Later, Jiang Hai and Delia made it clear, but he had nothing to say about Kelly.

Delia has a boyfriend, Jiang Hai can use this thing to talk about things, but Kelly does not have it, which makes Jiang Hai a little at a loss.

But Kelly didn't seem to care much about this relationship. After that day, although she occasionally sent some text messages to Jiang Hai, she didn't have much contact. Her sudden arrival today caught Jiang Hai off guard.

"What else can I do? Look for a job. My dad asked me to come to the flower shop to help, but I feel that I am still young. If I don't go out to find a job and try my luck, I would be sorry for my age." Shrugging, Kelly Soren said speechlessly.

Of course, she also failed to explain that American children are actually somewhat rebellious. After they turn 18, most of them are not willing to live with their parents, let alone work under them. , not to mention making little money, but also suffering from anger.

So instead of working at home, they prefer to go out, which is the main reason why Kelly has been looking for a job.

"Well, have you ever thought about continuing to study in school?" After hearing her words, Jiang Hai hesitated and said to her. To be honest, Jiang Hai knew about Kelly Suo from the earliest time. Len was looking for a job, but he didn't want to take the job.

But something happened between the two of them, and now they were considered friends, so it didn't matter if they helped find a job.

"Are you taking the postgraduate entrance examination? Hey, Jiang, don't be ridiculous. It's still possible for me to pass the postgraduate entrance examination with my grades, but the problem is that my major is not very good. No subject will ask me for it." Shrugging, Kelly-So Lun said helplessly that the postgraduate entrance examination is indeed a good place in the United States.

In fact, this is also true in China, but in the United States, it is not that easy to take the postgraduate entrance examination. It does not mean that you can pass the entrance examination.

Instead, you need to participate in some research groups, and you need to become a graduate student of those professors, so that you can pass the exam.

In China, this is more of a name, but here in Boston, the United States, you really need to have some research capabilities.

"Leave this to me." Looking at Kelly Soren, Jiang Hai smiled and helped people to the end, sending Buddha to the West. Since something happened between them that shouldn't happen, then he I just helped her, and then I took out my mobile phone, found a number on it and dialed it. After the phone rang a few times, an excited voice came from the phone.

"Hi, Jiang, you must have known that our research has made progress, so you made the call, right? Haha, that's really great!" After listening to this man's words, Jiang Hai was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes also I couldn't help but wonder, has the research made any progress? What does it mean?

"Wait a minute, Professor Baker-Gerard, I don't know what progress your research has made, please speak slowly." Hearing the voice on the other end of the phone, Jiang Hai couldn't help but said immediately, knowing that he was responsible for this research The organization has invested a lot of money. If there is no result, then Jiang Hai will be helpless. Although the organization was first established not to make money, but to cover his estate, the effect so far is still Not bad, at least it blocked a lot of scholars and the like.

But if this research institution can really research something, it will be a good benefit for them.

"Haha, I used your cattle to crossbreed with the North American bison applied for from Yellowstone Park, and I found that there is no reproductive isolation between the two species, and the calves born are not only smarter, but also smaller in size. It's similar to the North American bison, but its personality is more like that of Angus cattle. However, I don't know whether this kind of cattle is suitable for raising. I have to study everything before saying..." After hearing Jiang Hai's words, the people here Professor Baker-Gerald couldn't help but said briskly. It could be heard that he was in a pretty good mood now.

After hearing his words, Jiang Hai also raised his eyebrows, a hybrid between Angus cattle and American bison? It sounds interesting.

But I just don’t know if this thing can be raised, but I’ll leave it to Professor Baker-Gerrard, he doesn’t know much about it anyway.

After congratulating Professor Baker-Gerard, he gradually calmed down.

"Jiang, why did you call me?" Baker-Gerald was in a good mood now. He also remembered that Jiang Hai didn't call after knowing his research results. That meant Jiang Hai has other things to do with him. Jiang Hai is the boss. He has been researching for almost a year, but he has not come up with anything, so he is quite careful with Jiang Hai.

"Well, I have a friend who is a student at Boston University. It is difficult to find a job after graduation, so he is preparing to take the postgraduate entrance examination. I would like to ask if you still have a quota for graduate students. If so, I will let her take the exam for your graduate school." After hearing Baker-Gerald's words, Jiang Hai also explained his purpose of coming, but he was still a little careful when he said it.

He was also quite afraid that this old professor was overthinking. Generally speaking, intellectuals like this had a lot of things to do. Don't think that Kelly was a spy sent by him, which would be troublesome. However, Jiang Hai was obviously overthinking, and the United States People don't pay attention to things. Use people without suspicion and don't use people with suspicion.

In research institutions like the United States, there must be one or even several investors, because they want to see whether these people spend money randomly, whether they have good patents, and whether they have anything beneficial to investors. , who is like Jiang Hai, who invests money and then leaves it alone? Now that Jiang Hai has sent someone over, it can be said that Baker-Gerrard is not happy.

"Of course there is no problem with this, just ask her to take the postgraduate entrance examination for me." Hearing Jiang Hai's words, Baker-Gerald couldn't help but pat Yue's chest and said, and when he heard that he agreed, Jiang Hai was also relieved. With a tone of voice, he gestured OK to Kelly Solon next to him, and then exchanged a few words with Baker Gerrard before hanging up the phone.

"Really? Did you really help me find the professor?" After hearing Jiang Hai's words, Kelly Soren couldn't help but excitedly said.

"Well, Professor Baker-Gerard, he should be a professor of ecology and evolution at your university. He is currently working on a plan for me to improve cattle breeds and grass quality in pastures. You can go find him and discuss it with him these days. Look, then study hard and pass the exam." Looking at Kelly Soren, Jiang Hai said to her with a smile, and after hearing what Jiang Hai said, Kelly Soren couldn't help but excitedly rushed over. She kissed Jiang Hai hard on the lips. She originally told Jiang Hai about her work, but in fact it was more about complaining.

But unexpectedly, Jiang Hai actually directly helped her solve this problem. To be honest, this really made her excited.

"Jiang, I must repay you well...I wonder if you are in the tent on the beach..." Looking at Jiang Hai, Kelly's eyes were watery and she said to him. It was obvious that she really loved Jiang Hai. Very interesting! [To be continued. ]
