574.0 Acres of Green Vines (9/10)

After sending Mao Weilong and the others to rest, Qin Shiou went to the vineyard.

The vineyards here have not yet started to be planted. First, a racking process is needed, which is to connect the wooden racks one by one, so that the growing grapes can be connected together conveniently.

Qin Shiou grows grapes on a small scale here, and uses trellises for edible grapes, which can form a relatively wide distance, and each grape can absorb more nutrients. When taking soil for cold protection in winter, you can directly shovel the soil nearby to protect the root system. It will not be exposed to frost damage due to a large amount of soil extraction.

The scale of grape brewing is slightly larger. At the suggestion of Bill, Qin Shiou adopted hedgerows, so that the row spacing is small, more grapes can be planted, the management is convenient, and the ventilation and light transmission conditions are better.

After setting up the frame with the machine, we also need to dig the planting ditch, which is the place where the grape seedlings are planted.

You must know that grapes are perennial vines with a relatively long lifespan. Qin Shiou believes that they will live longer under the energy transformation of Poseidon, so that after planting, they will grow and bear fruit in a fixed position for many years, requiring a relatively large underground nutrient volume and development space.

In addition, the root system of grapes is different from herbaceous plants. The young tissue used to divide and grow is fleshy. When it stretches downwards and outwards for production, it will stop advancing when it encounters resistance.

Therefore, some grapes are suitable for growing in sandy land, which has little resistance to root expansion. Of course, in order to make the grape roots grow better in the soil, Qin Shiou felt that it would be better to open up planting ditch.

Everything is mechanized, and the machine that digs the planting ditch is similar to a shovel. It was a small tracked vehicle with a shovel on the front, and Qin Shiou and Shakra marked the line. The shovel begins to shovel along the marking line.

After all, the machine operation is fast. The shovel is put down and lifted again and again, and every time it is raised, it is a pit about one meter long, wide and deep—this is the planting ditch. Although it has the word "ditch", it is actually a pit planting hole.

There is another machine behind the forklift, which is responsible for backfilling, filling the excavated soil into the pit. But instead of simply pushing in, someone first put a water filter in.

The seaside is sandy and watery. The root system of grapes is easy to rot when it is relatively tender, so it is protected by a water filter, so that the root system will not be soaked in water before it is mature, and when it is mature. Regardless of whether it will be soaked in water, it will not rot.

After the water filter is put in place, it is time to fill the soil. There are two layers in total, one layer of sandy soil on the surface, and the other layer is filled with a layer of fertilizer and topsoil mixed soil to provide nutrients for the first growth of the grape seedlings.

When the sand is backfilled to about 10 cm from the ground surface, the seedlings can be formally planted.

Plant a grape seedling in a planting ditch, because the sand is soft, just press the seedling into the sand pit. This is very simple and cannot be done by machine, it needs to be done manually. Qin Shiou took the fisherman and his family members and began to plant it inside.

Shirley's children were out of school, and they all had Hot Wheels on their feet. They were skating yelling, and they were full of energy.

As a result, the joy turned into sorrow, and Winnie called them to come and help, but the children tried to pretend they didn't hear it. He lowered his head and wanted to leave.

Shaq and the sea monster showed their tough parenting skills and strode to catch up. Picking up his son, he kicked over and shouted like he was driving an animal: "Work, if you don't work, you won't have food tonight!"

"Not only did they have no food to eat, but they also confiscated their little things." Smoker laughed.

It's easy to do things with more people, just put the roots of the grape seedlings in the sandpit. Qin Shiou is accompanied by tigers and leopards.

The little radish tilted its head and looked at it for a while. It thought it was a good job, so it went to pick up the saplings and gave them to Wei Ni.

But it was a little bit big and strong, but the sapling couldn't carry it, so it dragged and ran all the way on the ground. After it was delivered to Winnie, the sapling was almost dragged to death...

Winnie was very touched, picked up the little radish and said contentedly: "What a good boy, our little radish knows how to be considerate of mother, come, let mother kiss, will mother hug you to sleep tonight?"

The little radish head squeaked and squealed, and buried its little head into the twin peaks on Wei Ni's chest.

The land of 150 mu looks huge, but under the mechanized operation, less than half of it was completed in one afternoon. After another busy morning tomorrow, the vineyard can be completely planted.

Seeing the delicate leaves of grape seedlings swaying with the evening wind, Qin Shiou suddenly felt a little emotional. No wonder some people say that technology is the primary productive force. He remembered that in his hometown, growing grapes used to require four or five acres of land, and the family had to work all day.

Now using machinery, twenty or so people can farm a hundred mu of land in one afternoon.

In fact, it may not be possible to finish the project tonight, but why bother? Qin Shiou has plenty of time, now that the sun is setting, let's prepare dinner.

The good brothers came, and the fishermen brought their families to help grow grapes. Qin Shiou must have a big meal to treat him.

Anyway, the wild boar has grown fat, Qin Shiou asked Byrd and Shaq to slaughter another one, and continue to roast the wild boar tonight. In addition, he propped up an iron pot in the yard, which he just bought from St. John's, and it happened to be used to stew the big goose in the iron pot.

After a busy day, Qin Shiou didn't want to cook by himself, so he called Papa Hixon to prepare two tables, and asked the sea monster and the bull to drive to the town and bring them back.

The bull came to help with his little wife. Qin Shiou poured a glass of orange juice for the girl who always looked timid, and asked with a smile: "Hi, is that Ana Stacia Aum? Is that guy Bull right?" Are you angry, lately?"

The girl smiled shyly, and said in a soft voice: "No, no, we have remarried. He has changed a lot after working with you now, his temper has begun to restrain, and he rarely speaks loudly to me."

"Very few? That's why there are more?" Qin Shiou joked, "Smoking gun, take Iverson to teach that bull a lesson!"

Iverson was squatting beside Bird to watch him deal with the wild boar. When he heard Qin Shiou's words, he stood up in a daze and asked, "Who do you want Iverson to beat?"

Qin Shiou looked at the pale Anna, and knew that the joke could not go on, so he waved his hand to signal Iverson to continue playing, and did not make any more jokes about Anna and the bull.

The smoking gun came up to Qin Shiou with a smoke ring, and said with emotion: "The bull has changed a lot, and you saved a lost calf, haha."

Qin Shiou said: "No, in fact, the bull is kind-hearted. It was poverty that forced him to lose his temper. Now that he has a stable income, bought a car he likes, and can live the life he likes, naturally he will not lose his temper again."

When there were more people, the yard became lively. After sleeping all afternoon, Mao Weilong came out with Duo Duo after washing, watching the children and pets with great interest. (to be continued)
