Golden Fishery

Newfoundland suffered a snowstorm this year, and another layer of snow fell on New Year's Eve. Fortunately, the snow was not heavy and stopped at two o'clock in the morning, so Qin Shiou got up the next day to see that there was not much snow in the yard.

The sea around Farewell Island is full of warm currents, and the Daqin Fishing Ground also has geothermal hot springs, so that the snow melts and the frozen ground becomes soft.

On the first day of the new year, Qin Shiou went to the vegetable field of the fishing ground to have a look. Hey, the vegetable field is not considered rigid, it can be planted with vegetable seedlings and then built a greenhouse.

This discovery made him very happy. After Shaq and his party got up with their drunken heads, he gathered the people to prepare the greenhouse.

Shaq drove to the town to borrow a plow, and quickly turned over the vegetable field twice. After all, it was winter, and there were many clods of frozen soil, which made it difficult to clean up.

The sea monster shook his head and said, "Although I really want to eat fresh vegetables from our fishery, I have to admit that now is not a good time to grow vegetables."

Qin Shiou smiled and said, "Don't worry, buddy, you have met my parents and know their identities. They are all expert vegetable farmers. I have learned a lot from them. It must be no problem to grow vegetables now."

Now that you say that, the sea monster has nothing to say, shrug your shoulders, and let's do it. Speaking of which, the vegetables produced in the vegetable fields before taste really good.

With the New Year's Day holiday and the heavy snowfall, Grant Elementary School recently had a small winter holiday, Shirley and the others have been resting at home.

Winnie took them to clean up the last vegetables in the field, mainly radishes and cabbage.

Gordon and Michelle called "Pull the Carrots" and picked out the remaining radishes in the field. Following Wei Ni, it was placed in the freezer.

After all, it is a variety modified by Sea God's energy. The green radish grown in the vegetable field is not spicy, but has a faint sweetness. Qin Shiou could only explain to the public that it was a fruit radish, so Wei Ni and the others really ate it as a fruit, and Xiong Da and Pineapple especially liked it.

The radish clears the stomach and intestines, and Xiong Da and the pineapple fart after eating it. Regardless of the occasion, they think this is very interesting.

After tidying up, it is time to set up the greenhouse.

Auerbach has a strange enthusiasm for farming. He squatted on the ground and asked, "Qin, what type of greenhouse shall we plant this time? A steel pipe greenhouse or a bamboo and wood arched greenhouse?"

Growing vegetables in greenhouses in Canada is very particular. There are relatively few plantations in Newfoundland. For example, the three provinces of Winnie’s hometown are large greenhouse growers, and many farmers have built greenhouses to grow vegetables.

Qin Shiou didn't need to build a greenhouse to grow vegetables. Just use a greenhouse. Anyway, I usually have nothing to do, so it is more interesting to clean up the plastic greenhouse.

Generally speaking, plastic greenhouses in Canada are divided into two types due to different supports, that is, steel pipe greenhouses and bamboo-wood round arch greenhouses. The former is supported by galvanized thin-walled steel pipes, and the latter is supported by bamboo strips and wooden sticks.

Qin Shiou advocated pure nature, so he waved his hand and said that he would use bamboo and wood to arch the greenhouse, and Auerbach went to call Bill.

Newfoundland marine companies are, after all, agricultural companies. However, it mainly focuses on marine products, and there are also seeds and equipment related to the farm.

Bill quickly sent over a batch of greenhouse equipment, and he personally led the team. After arriving at the fishing ground, he said enthusiastically, "Hey, Qin, why are you interested in doing this? I have seen rich people grow their own vegetables to eat, but I have never seen a rich man like you grow a greenhouse. It is too difficult, isn't it?"

Qin Shiou smiled and said: "You made two mistakes. Dude, one. I'm not a rich man; two, planting a greenhouse is actually not very difficult, and it's much simpler than your sales."

Bill shook his head and said, "No, no, I'll just be my salesman. As long as I can meet a big customer like you every year, then I won't have to worry about not having vegetables to eat, haha."

Following Qin Shiou, Bill did make a lot of money. For example, when he bought lobster seedlings and sea cucumber seedlings a while ago, he earned a small commission of 100,000 yuan.

The workers brought by Bill unloaded the bamboo and wooden sticks, and Qin Shiou signed the check to him, and the deal was successful.

The steel pipe greenhouse has a long lifespan, which can reach 15 years, but the bamboo strips and wooden sticks that Bill sent to Qin Shiou are all charcoal-baked and then treated with tung oil. The lifespan is much longer than ordinary wooden bamboo scaffolding, which can reach about ten years .

Although these brackets are just wood and bamboo, the price is more expensive than thin-walled steel pipes. The greenhouse Bill chose for Qin Shiou is the most expensive, because he knows Qin Shiou's consumption philosophy, only buy the best, not the most affordable.

These supports are mainly made of moso bamboo and small logs, with a height of about 2 meters and a width of 4 to 5 meters, with drawings for use. Bill is very proficient in business, and it is not for nothing that he can make a lot of money.

Because Qin Shiou let him go for the first lobster cooperation, Bill has always been grateful to Qin Shiou, and today he took the initiative to stay and guide a group of people to build the greenhouse, so that the project will be much faster.

Qin Shiou changed places to reclaim two greenhouses. Each vegetable field is 6 meters wide and 200 meters long, and the planting area is a terrifying 1,000 square meters.

Indeed, for an amateur like him, the two sheds were too big. But there is no way, this kind of greenhouses are all made according to large specifications. If the length is too short, the plastic tarpaulin cannot be unfolded at all, and some supporting equipment cannot be installed.

Soon, rows of brackets were erected, with moso bamboo pieces connected to them, like the skeleton of a tent in a small military camp.

"So, what we have to do now is to cover it with plastic film. What kind of film did you bring? Polyethylene or polyvinyl chloride?" Qin Shiou rubbed his hands and asked.

Bill directed Nelson and Bird to open the plastic film, laughed and said, "Dude, you underestimate me. Why would you use such an ordinary film for a greenhouse worth 150,000 yuan? What I bring to you is multi-functional and long-lived." membrane."

Qin Shiou smiled and said, "So powerful? Why haven't I heard of it?"

Bill explained: "I'm not exaggerating. This is really the best kind of plastic film. It is made by adding the right amount of anti-aging materials and surfactants in the polyethylene blow molding process. Don't look at it. It's thinner and more transparent. But it is very strong, the service life is twice as long as that of ordinary film, and the temperature of the greenhouse at night can be 1 to 50% higher than that of traditional plastic film.”

Because of the sea breeze, the plastic film covering is more complicated. Qin Shiou and others all went to the battle, laying the brackets one by one. It took nearly an hour to cover the two films on the bamboo skeleton.

This plastic film is matched, and the outside is also connected with polyethylene high foaming film.

This is a white plastic film with many bubbles, 1 meter wide and 0.4-0.5 cm thick. It can be hung on the plastic film piece by piece like tank armor. The function is also similar to tank armor, which protects the plastic film from damage and can also play a role in heat preservation.

It took a full day, and with the efforts of machines and so many people, the two greenhouses were finally built before the sun went down.

Finally, Bill and Qin Shiou hung up the curtain door together, and sealed the two sides of the plastic film, so that the greenhouse was roughly built.

Looking at these two mighty sheds like military camps, Qin Shiou was satisfied, and said with a smile: "On the first day of the new year, we have accomplished a remarkable thing. Very good, this is a good sign!" (To be continued)
