The next day, Han Qi saw Kevin who had returned from the countryside. He looked much more energetic than before, but he also lost a lot of weight. It could be seen that he had not been idle during this period.
His daughter is still accompanying her, and this time her daughter’s family, including her husband Levin and son Stephen, are also here.
Stephen is over six years old and has a relatively quiet personality.
Kevin was very happy to see Han Qi again. The wooden house he gave to Han Qi was the memory of his life. Compared with Han Qi getting the wooden house and ignoring it, he would rather see Han Qi renovate the wooden house hotel.
established.
Everyone met at the entrance of the cathedral, and then took Han Qi to their home as a guest.
The buildings in Reykjavik have a sense of age. They are also old buildings from dozens or hundreds of years ago. It’s just that the decoration inside has changed from generation to generation. Now when you enter these houses, you can’t find anything from decades ago.
trace.
After all, this house belongs to Kevin's daughter, and today's young people are not as nostalgic as the old people.
As soon as he entered the room, Kevin turned on the heater first and said to Han Qi: "The thing that impressed me most about the city is the heater. We only have a stove to make a fire, and I have to be careful not to let tourists make a fire."
Burn that house down."
Han Qi smiled and said: "Yes, after all, they are all old wood and cannot withstand fire."
He himself comes from a place without heating, and he also likes heating, especially since Iceland has free heating all year round, which is difficult to achieve in other countries, or it is possible to do it, but it is unwilling to do it.
After all, China's population is too large.
"I'm glad you came back to rebuild the White Oak Inn. I thought you had forgotten about the treehouse."
"This is a place that is unforgettable, but I have never been able to find time to come here before." Han Qi returned.
Although Kevin's daughter and son-in-law were busy in the kitchen, they were all listening to the chat between their father and Han Qi. They didn't know it before, and they only thought that Han Qi was an international star and a famous painter.
But now the whole of Europe knows that a Chinese prince has appeared in Norway.
This feeling is different from the previous alienation. Although it is a bit awkward, Han Qi has obviously become a half-Nordic compatriot.
Moreover, if a person of this level enters Iceland openly, one of the top three leaders of Iceland must come to greet him, and the Prime Minister must speak to Han Qi to show his hospitality.
"Let's find someone to rebuild the wooden house tomorrow." Han Qi said, "Last time I saw that many rooms inside were leaking. Living in the mountains and forests is bound to be humid. Water leakage will greatly reduce the life of the tree house."
He has been busy these past few days and has found a lot of information about tree houses on the Internet.
There are still a group of people in the world who particularly admire nature and go to the wild to build trees to live in, but Han Qi has never seen a tree house with the same area as the White Oak Hotel for the second time.
Kevin agreed: "There are indeed many places that need repairing. I can ask someone to help with this. No one knows this house better than me."
Hearing these words, Han Qi felt happy.
Sure enough, Kevin was very proficient in this aspect of architectural knowledge. He paid for it and followed Kevin to see the renovation of the White Oak Hotel. In the end, he would decide whether to invite Kevin to his project.
Not long after, Kevin's daughter prepared lunch.
Iceland's food is not rich, but because it is an island country, aquatic products have become a regular feature on their tables, including a plate of fried cod tongue, a plate of steamed cod meat, and a plate of mutton.
Icelandic steamed cod is eaten differently from Chinese steamed cod, and it is a dish that was only produced after the development of modern kitchen utensils.
Chinese people like to add a variety of sauces, and finally top the steamed fish with soy sauce, which is rich and low-flavored, so that you can taste the tender meat of the fish in the intertwining of various flavors and experience the taste. However, Icelandic steamed fish only adds a little
Bay leaves and a little lemon juice.
Refreshing with a bit of sweet and sour, you can enjoy the most rustic taste of cod itself.
Valley rent
Fried cod tongue is made in British style and tastes very good. Han Qi thinks it is a good snack.
After eating this lunch, Han Qi and Kevin went to the White Oak Hotel together.
When Han Qi exposed this place on the Internet, many people wanted to stay at the White Oak Hotel for a day to see the building's century-old history and experience the deep environment in the mountains and forests.
After all, a famous person in China once said, "It's great to live in the mountains."
But I can't find it.
Although this place is still a hotel, belonging to a small business owned by Han Qi in Iceland, the security inspection did not pass.
After Han Qi took over this place, others originally wanted to sell Han Qi's face so that the place could be opened directly, but they sent someone to stay for two days and checked all the safety facilities above and below the tree house. If the White Oak Hotel passed with 100 points,
Can only get 60 points.
After all, the foundation here was laid many years ago, and the safety level of modern society has been upgraded several times, and the tree house simply cannot pass the test.
So just like before, the White Oak Hotel cannot be searched on any software in Iceland.
If you want to find it, you can only try your luck like Han Qi did at the beginning, but now even the dilapidated road sign that Han Qi saw at the beginning has been taken away, which makes the tree house completely hidden in the forest on the road.
Kevin drove the car all the way to the front of the tree house. The tree house now looked more natural.
Spring is here, and green buds are sprouting in the game area.
"This is really a living tree house." Han Qi said.
His original intention was to make a joke, but after hearing what Han Qi said, Kevin said: "The three big trees used as the foundation are indeed alive. It's still early now. When summer comes, the leaves above will be lush.
It will look very nice.”
"ah?"
A house built on these three trees for nearly a hundred years is really strong to still be alive.
Walking into the tree house, there was not much dust on the table in the hall, but there were obviously traces of small animals moving inside. Han Qi walked around inside and found dirt and footprints on the wall and on the table.
When he opened the counter, the contents of the cabinet fell down with a loud splash. Fortunately, Han Qi reacted quickly and dodgeed quickly.
When he walked away, he realized that what fell was actually a pile of nuts.
"this……"
"These are the squirrel's collections." Kevin came over and checked the inside of the cabinet. "It turns out there is a hole in it. Squirrels can get into this cabinet when they are on top of the house. In their opinion, this should be a
Natural tree hole.”
Kevin checked it carefully again: "It's very dry, this place is very new..."
"It's very new, and people still come here often." Han Qi said, looking at the roof.
Seeing Kevin looking over, Han Qi motioned for him to look up.
I saw a medium-sized squirrel standing on the support beam of the roof. It looked about thirty centimeters tall and was about the size of an old-fashioned thermos cup. It had a fat belly. It was watching pine nuts and acorns fall all over the ground.
, sunflower seeds...
The little paw loosened.
Boom.
The pine nut hit Kevin right on the bridge of the nose, causing both the squirrel and the squirrel to cry out in pain at the same time.
