Sending away the two Heywood, Qin Shiou went back to plan the construction of the fishery, and at the same time called Bill Saatchi, the account manager of Dick Aquatic Vegetation Company. Although his main business is marine vegetation, he belongs to agriculture after all. He also knows about planting in the garden.

Knowing that Qin Shiou wanted to develop a vineyard, Bill, who had come all the way, laughed and waved: "No, no, Qin, this is not appropriate. Most of the vineyards in Canada are concentrated in the south, and the farewell island is even in the south. South, but it’s not appropriate."

   "Why?"

  "You are right here by the sea! Vineyards cannot be planted by the sea. The moisture is too heavy at night, and the grapes can't stand the moisture. They won't die, but the taste that grows is very bad, especially bitter!" Bill explained.

  Listening to him, Qin Shiou shrugged and did not accept the explanation. Yes, he knew that the seaside was not suitable for planting vineyards. Canadian vineyards are mainly concentrated near the Southern Lakes-this is because large waters can alleviate the extreme cold weather in winter and early spring in Canada and protect the vines.

  In addition, the lake area is different from the ocean. There is water, but there is no wind, the other has strong wind, the other is without sea tide and the other is dense. There are two different environments.

  In fact, Canada is not suitable for developing vineyards. There are more than 10 million square kilometers in Canada, but there are only 4 important wine producing areas, namely Ontario, British Columbia, Nova Scotia and Quebec.

  Among them, Ontario is the most important, accounting for about 75% of the country’s production, and the production areas that meet the VQA standards of the Canadian Wine Quality Association. Only Ontario and British Columbia.

  Even in these two provinces, there are very few first-class dry red and dry white that can be produced, and ice wine is mainly produced. Of course, Qin Shiou developed vineyards. In addition to planting some edible grapes for self-eating, the other focus is on brewing ice wine.

  Qin Shiou doesn’t care about the taste of the grapes produced on the coast. What he wants is to survive, as long as he can survive. Instilling the vines with Poseidon energy, the grapes produced are absolutely delicious.

  Bill explained, Qin Shiou didn't listen, and only asked him how to develop the vineyard and which grapes to choose.

  Qin Shiou checked the information and found that before the 1980s, most of the grapes grown in Canada were hardy American varieties. But the wines made from these varieties of grapes have astringent and sour taste, so after the 1980s. European wine grape varieties have gradually become the mainstream of cultivation.

Of course, the so-called European grape varieties selected by Canadian vineyard owners are also hybrids, such as the red grape variety Black Barco and Marechal-Fuchs, and the white grape Baisaiwa and Widal hybrids. Resistant to cold.

  White grape varieties such as Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Grenadine and Pinot Gris, and red grape varieties such as Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah. These pure raw high-quality European wine grapes cannot survive in Canada's bitter cold climate.

  Qin Shiou doesn't care about these, he chooses whatever grape variety he is, and asks Bill to recommend him the best grape variety.

   Seeing that he was stubborn, Bill could only shrug his shoulders and say "Customer is God", and then he called friends in the grape growing industry and recommended several varieties to Qin Shiou.

  Qin Shiou made a decision, and the main variety he ate was North American red grape. This is a delicious grape that emerged from California, and is now sold all over the world. But this grape is not hardy, and Bill is not optimistic about surviving on Farewell Island.

  Brewing grapes. Qin Shiou chose two. Red grapes are Cabernet Sauvignon and white grapes are Riesling. Both of these grapes are the most famous grapes for brewing.

  Bill suggested that Qin Shiou choose Vidal, a hybrid grape. The ice wine wineries in Ontario now basically grow it.

  Qin Shiou studied it, and the grapes of Weidal mature slowly. Strong resistance to severe cold, very suitable for survival in severe cold areas. In addition, it has a thick skin, is not perishable, and is easy to preserve. It can still hang branches for three or four months after maturity to resist the invasion of severe cold in high latitudes, so it is often used for brewing ice wine.

  But the ice wine brewed by Widell is too low in acidity, too sweet and greasy, lacking the fragrance and floral fragrance of wine, which Qin Shiou dislikes very much.

  In contrast, the Riesling variety is much better. The grapes also mature slowly, but the wine it produces has a very delicate taste and aroma.

Moreover, the Riesling grape needs a long and cold climate to form its elegant flavor, during which the high acidity in the grape can be maintained, the sweetness in the ice wine is well balanced, and the wine is full and layered, and the aroma is amazing. .

  It’s just that Riesling is very squeamish, and because of the phenomenon of sunlight, temperature and disease, production is reduced at every turn, so it has not been popularized in Canada.

  Qin Shiou knows that there are tigers in the mountains and tends to go to Hushan, so he chose these delicate breeds.

  In addition, when choosing Riesling and Cabernet Sauvignon, in addition to their famous and delicious taste, there is another reason that they are suitable for growing in the sand, which is suitable for the environment of the fishing ground.

  After choosing the grape varieties, Qin Shiou asked Bill to help him purchase grape seedlings. He and the fishermen reclaimed the small highland and built it according to the requirements of the vineyard.

  Grapes like sunlight, and vineyards require good wind and light conditions. This small highland is fully up to the standard, where the terrain is high and it is not easy to accumulate water. After the drainage ditch is built, the impact will not be great even if the rainstorm hits.

  The most suitable time for planting grape seedlings is after falling leaves in autumn or before budding in spring. Spring in Canada comes late. This time is also considered to be the budding period. Planting seedlings does not count as finished.

Qin Shiou’s 150 acres of highland is divided into eight planting areas, basically one planting area is about 20 acres, and one planting area is planted with edible grapes, mainly red grapes, and other black grapes and green grapes. There are more than twenty varieties in one.

  The remaining seven planting areas are all used to grow grapes. Shaq drove the rotary tiller to cultivate the entire land. The rotary tiller knives quickly turned, and the sandy land that has not been used for a long time was cut into extremely delicate pieces.

  Occasionally, rocks, shells and the like are turned out in some places, and the sea monsters will clean them out by driving a car equipped with a nail-tooth rake.

  At this time, the importance of pickup trucks can be seen. These farm tools can be connected to pickup trucks for use.

  Plowing the land well, Shaq set up the boundary of the operation area, which is to smash a road with a suppressor. People and vehicles will walk on these roads when they enter the plantation.

  The roads in the work area are flat and straight, and the roads are either parallel or vertical, cutting the entire vineyard into small squares.

The work has been carried out so far, but the preparations have been made. Qin Shiou bought enough wood from St. John's, and then planted all the wood into the ground with a pile driver, and pulled steel bars and iron wires between them for future grapes to cling to. .

  In this way, the rest of the work is to wait for the grape seedlings to arrive. (To be continued~^~)
