Chapter 446: The Glacier Lake and the Vineyard
On the first day of arriving at the ranch, Concubine Li did not arrange for the invited anchors and tourists to visit other tourist attractions in the South Island. In her opinion, the group had just arrived, so it was better to familiarize themselves with the ranch first.
The purpose of organizing such an event is to raise the profile of the marine ranch. However, the ranch has limited amusement items, and it is difficult for tourists to come out, and they will not return to China in three or two days, and most of them will stay for a while.
In this case, if only the ranch tour is arranged, I believe that many tourists will find it boring. If you add other well-known tourist attractions in the South Island, I believe that tourists who come to the island will not get tired of playing for a week.
I experienced a handful of plantation picking, and most of them tasted the delicious fruits and vegetables again. As the leader, Concubine Li also ended the morning play experience in time and brought the group back to prepare for lunch for everyone.
Considering that the number of people is relatively large and free, Concubine Li still adopts the method of collective dining to ensure that tourists and anchors eat and drink well. At noon, she also sets aside two hours of free time for visitors and streamers to make their own arrangements.
You can go back to your cabin for a nap or wander around the woods near the cabin. For those who love to take pictures, they can also choose to go around the ranch on their own. If you really want to complete the large ranch, it is estimated that it will take a day.
When visiting the plantation, visitors also see the orchards where kiwifruit and kiwiberries are grown on the ranch. They even know that the Sea Ranch has a large vineyard. These are the special fruits that can be sold in the future ranch.
To be able to grow such delicious fruits and vegetables, I think the other fruits grown should not be disappointing!
In the afternoon, as Concubine Li reappeared, tourists and anchors also gathered one after another, and then took a golf cart purchased by the ranch and began to go to the freshwater lake relatively far away. The scenery there is also beautiful.
If you walk, it will definitely take more time. On top of that, if you travel by golf cart, you can also sit back and enjoy the scenery of the ranch. In addition to grasslands, the pastures also have some hills and woods.
Sitting in the car, many tourists sighed: "It is really comfortable to live in this kind of place." Every day, you can see this kind of scenery of wind blowing grass and seeing cattle and sheep, which is really enviable!"
"There should be a lot of such pastures in New Zealand. According to those tour guides, they will take us to other attractions in the South Island in the future. I believe that the scenery we will see at that time should not disappoint us. ”
"In the way of a fisherman, if it's not good, he won't recommend it to us. At the end of this free tour, if you have time in the future, you can come to the ranch for a while a year, and you can still come. ”
Buying one of these ranches is simply not possible for many tourists. Even if they are all small and wealthy, they really have to spend hundreds of millions of real money to buy ranches, but I am afraid that many people will not be able to do it.
When they arrived at the Tamsui Lake, looking at the mirror-like surface of the lake, many tourists were delighted: "I really didn't expect that there is such a beautiful place in the pasture." Fisherwoman, why don't you build a few houses here?"
In the eyes of some tourists, it is better to build a few houses on the shores of such a beautiful lake. Every day, when you open the window, you can see the beautiful freshwater lake, which is also a pleasure to think about. After all, this is a lake-view room!
In the face of the tourists' inquiries, Concubine Li also smiled and said: "Although there are no fierce beasts within the ranch. The water source of the freshwater lake is more from the freshwater from the melting of the ice and snow in the upper mountains. As a result, the temperature of the lake is very low.
In this kind of place, it is not a big problem to live occasionally, but if you live often, the temperature will be lower than on the ranch. However, if you are interested and would like to spend the night, I can provide camping tents. ”
"That's fine! I see that there are mountains in the pastures, and there are no beasts in the mountains, right?"
"No! In the territory of New Zealand, except for the zoo, there are hardly any wild beasts in the wild, not even poisonous snakes. However, there are many valleys in the South Island that are not open to the public, and it is easy to get lost in them if you venture into them. ”
Since she has decided to receive tourists from China, Concubine Li will naturally focus on understanding the situation of New Zealand and the South Island. Although there is also hunting in Nyusila, there are no beasts of prey in the wild.
Most of the animals that move in the mountains are herbivores, but there are still wild animals such as sheep and deer!
Stepping out of the golf cart, the crowd began to move towards the freshwater lake. When a tourist reached out to touch the lake, his hand into the lake quickly retracted and said in surprise: "Don't say it, this lake is really icy!"
Although there are many pastures in the South Island, there are not many pastures with such cold-water lakes. For such a freshwater lake, it is actually a resource. The water quality of this lake is also very good. ”
After a brief introduction to the freshwater lake, when they learned that there was very delicious salmon in the lake, many tourists said, "Then we have time, can we come here to fish? The salmon in this lake tastes good, right?"
In response to the tourists' inquiries, Concubine Li also smiled and nodded: "Indeed, the salmon caught in this lake is used to make sashimi, and the taste is indeed delicious." It's just that the salmon in this lake is not as easy to catch as you think.
Of course, if you're interested in trying it out, I can provide fishing tackle and the like. But one thing needs to be said in advance, if it is salmon under three catties, it must be put back into the lake after being caught.
Although the lake is pasture, the policy here in Nyusila is still a little different from other places. Even if we want to fish, we can only eat it on the ranch. It cannot be sold without a license.
In addition, all fish used for food must also meet the weight required by the policy. The simple goal is to ensure that the fish in this freshwater lake are not too damaged. ”
As Concubine Li said, like Louie and Januk, when they have time or want to eat fish, they will also find time to come here to catch a few shots. But to their bewilderment, the fish in the lake are getting harder and harder to catch.
It stands to reason that most of the wild salmon that live in lakes should be food starved. When you come across their favorite bait, most of them will bite the hook and it is easier to catch. But now, these fish seem to have learned to be cunning.
Sometimes after squatting for several hours, you may not be able to catch a fish. Most of the fish that are occasionally hooked are fish that do not meet the food standards. After a few more fishing, Louis and Januk also felt that the fish in the ranch seemed to have become lean.
But they also know that if they are lucky enough to catch one, the sashimi cut into these salmon will make them want to swallow their tongues together. The quality of the fish in this freshwater lake seems to have improved.
Originally, Louis had suggested that he could apply for commercial fishing rights in freshwater lakes. But in the end, he was dispelled by Zhuang Haiyang, thinking that the salmon in this freshwater lake was still not much, and he should stay and enjoy it alone.
Even if there is a large amount of salmon, it can be digested inside the farm alone. It's just that if you want to ensure the harvest of every fishing at the moment, maybe only Zhuang Haiyang will do it himself. For others, no matter how good the craftsmanship is, it is estimated that they will try their luck.
The reason for all this is naturally that Zhuang Haiyang has sorted out the water veins under the freshwater lake, so that the quality of the lake has been improved. In this case, in addition to the improvement of the quality of the salmon in the lake, there is naturally no shortage of food.
Even some fish that used to swim back to the sea now swim upstream and hide in freshwater lakes to give birth when it comes to the production season. The number of fish in the lake is also growing.
At a certain level, Zhuang Haiyang may organize fishing from time to time. The larger the number, the easier it will be to apply for legal fishing. The government has limited this, but also to ensure that the ecology of the freshwater lake will not be fatally damaged.
If there are no fish in the lake, then the value of this freshwater lake is believed to be greatly reduced. About these situations, Louis and others naturally knew about it. It's just that they don't know much about the current situation in the lake.
But for other fishermen, they prefer to stay at the lake rather than go directly to the ranch to fish. After all, according to what Concubine Li said, the amount of salmon in this lake is not small!
Walking along the lake, many tourists also feel that there is a chance to come to the lake to camp and feel the taste of camping. After visiting the freshwater lake, Concubine Li also led the tourists to the nearby valley to visit the new vineyards that had been opened.
I saw that these vineyards, which had just been planted and most of them had not grown grapes, already occupied most of the valley. Many tourists are also curious: "Fisherwoman, are these grapes eaten or used to make wine?"
"A small part of it is fruit grapes that can be sold, and the vast majority of grapes are grapes used for winemaking. That guy took this vineyard very seriously, and after we took over, this vineyard also invested a lot.
All the vines are more than 10 years old, and we buy them at high prices from other vineyards. Fortunately, the survival rate of these vines is still very high after transplanting, and it is estimated that they will be harvested in the second half of the year. ”
"So, you're going to be in the wine business in the future?"
"I don't know, but if there are a lot of grapes, I think some winemakers will be hired to process the grapes. However, whether the wine is good or not depends on the quality of the grapes and the winemaking technique. ”
Compared to the previous rancher, he is reluctant to invest heavily. Zhuang Haiyang, who took over the ranch, naturally developed it by maximizing the value of the ranch. In that case, the overall value of the ranch will be increased several times.
Even if there is a plan to sell in the future, the selling price of the ranch will bring Zhuang Haiyang a lot of returns. It's just that someone else takes over the ranch, and whether this ranch can maintain the status quo is not guaranteed!
