1120.Five Parks (5/5)
The little melon grew up very quickly, crawling exercised her little short legs and small arms, and with the strength up and down her body, the crawling speed gradually accelerated, at first she could only surround a silly little golden eagle, and then slowly, she could catch the little ones in the living room.
The tigers, leopards, bears and wolves came to Qin Shiou aggrievedly, wanting Daddy to uphold justice, but Daddy was really busy and had no time to take care of them, so he could only continue to jump.
Andre walked around the fishing ground for a few days and gave a garden design plan for Qin Shiou and Winnie to watch.
Because the topography of the fishing ground is long and narrow, the garden designed by André is in the shape of flowing waves, which is suitable for the sea next to it, implying that the garden has the characteristics of the sea.
The garden is about 10 hectares, which seems to be a lot of an area, but in fact it is only a tenths of a square kilometer, which is much smaller than the vineyard.
Seeing the area, Qin Shiou shook his head and said, "Why don't we get a bigger one?" Anyway, my fishing ground is big enough, so let's have a super garden of a few hundred hectares! ”
He was not short of funds now, so he wanted to give Winnie a gift she liked, and she was not very interested in jewelry and designer clothes and perfumes, and the Night Queen's jewelry, since she accepted it, had not worn it twice.
Winnie likes parks, and Qin Shiou wants to make a big park to make her happy.
Hearing his words, Andre laughed: "Man, the largest park in the world, the national park that Dubai is building, is only two hundred hectares in area, and do you know how much money and manpower it will take?" ”
Qin Shiou patted his chest and said, "I have money." ”
André continued: "Are you ready to hire a hundred gardeners to clean up the park?" Let's be honest, boy, the park is the same as the castle. The most important thing is not how to build, but how to maintain! If the maintenance is not good. Then the park will be in ruins. ”
Qin Shiou asked hesitantly, "Do you need so many gardeners to take care of it?" ”
Andrei shrugged: "There will be more, not less." Let me give you another example, the Palace of Versailles in France. It covers an area of only 101 hectares, but in order to maintain it, 400 people were hired! ”
Qin Shiou was frightened by this data, the fishery now has only more than 20 fishermen and soldiers, if hundreds of horticulturists are recruited in the future, not to mention economic pressure, but management, then the problem will be very big.
And, under the same roof with hundreds of people. Qin Shiou shuddered when he thought about this chaotic scene.
Andre comforted him and said: "It's okay, in fact, gardens and parks can be expanded." Wouldn't it be better if we took our time? Build this section of the garden first, and if the vegetation and flowers are no problem growing, it's not too late to expand. ”
Knowing this, Qin Shiou nodded, Andre was right, he shouldn't be rash.
Winnie also appreciated Andre's words. She quietly pulled Qin Shiou and whispered: "Actually, my dear, I originally just hoped that you could build a small garden of one or two thousand square meters, so that I could take care of it myself." The area of ten hectares is also a bit large. ”
Qin Shiou felt that the area of ten hectares was not large, and the length was one kilometer. It's a hundred meters wide, and it doesn't take much time to walk around.
The fishery park is too long and narrow. For the sake of aesthetics and ease of construction, Andrea designed 5 large areas. From the sketch, the five districts almost divide the park equally.
The first area is the Natural Number Ecological Zone, which connects the small streams that meander down the Cambal Mountains, and the terrain of this section is more complex, and André has cleverly constructed the small hills, surrounded by paths and stone steps that can be climbed and overlooked.
The garden will be heavily constructed, requiring a lot of installation and deployment, and will be surrounded by a fence and a small pavilion with a slope outside the pavilion covered with flowers and plants, and surrounded by a small river that drains down from the Campal Hills.
In addition, Andre also built a small lake in the center of the area, so that the mountain spring rushes down, and the water splashes directly into the water, and when the time comes, it is full of natural breath.
The second area is the European-style garden, which is designed according to the ancient Roman palace and is surrounded by a wall of evergreen trees cut into a ball shape to distinguish it from the two surrounding areas. The highlight of this garden is the European-style sculpture and the mini-castle, where the little melon and his younger siblings can play in the future.
The third area, that is, the Chinese garden-style layout that Qin Shiou admires, Andre imitated the Humble Administrator's Garden.
The Humble Administrator's Garden is the pinnacle of garden art in the water town in the south of the Yangtze River, bidding farewell to the abundant water resources of the island, Andrei believes that a series of small lakes and rivers can be artificially created, and then supplemented by a variety of buildings with national style, full of style.
The fourth area is the flower and plant area, as long as the flowers and plants suitable for the climate and environment of St. John's must be transplanted, and the variety of flowers and plants will be won, so that in the spring, summer and autumn, the garden will be splendid, and strictly speaking, this is the garden that Winnie understands.
The final area, the finishing touch to the Fisheries Garden, is the area that envelops the spa area, which André wanted to make a complete indoor garden, planted with temperate and tropical vegetation that is not found in Upper Newfoundland, and between which the hot springs are tucked away, with a natural and exotic atmosphere.
Qin Shiou felt that this design was magnificent enough, but it seemed to be a bit complicated, and it would not become different when the time came.
Winnie thought for a moment and said, "Our fishery is very large, Mr. Andre may have designed it for the future, don't you hope that the garden will be expanded in the future?" The expanded part can adopt a unified style, and these five areas will not be complicated as the core. ”
The garden style is too uniform, which is an advantage for a small garden, but if it is a large garden, it may not be too simple and boring. Large gardens are more colorful because they are large enough and can display enough things, and the design is more complex.
After Qin Shiou and Winnie discussed, they probably determined the design plan, and Andre also gave a budget at the same time as the design, and the funds needed to build this park were at least 20 million Canadian dollars!
For Qin Daguan, there was no pressure on 20 million Canadian dollars, he told Andre that it was okay to do so, and Andre said to him: "Qin, have you seen it, there are many places in the garden, and it is very simple to build, especially the core area. ”
"So, I suggest that you build these places yourself, plant your favorite flowers and trees, and plan your accustomed paths, so that in the end the garden is built, and you will have a sense of accomplishment and identity. If you just ask the construction team to do the construction, what is the point of coming out of the garden like that, right? ”
The world's top gardens, such as the Stenbores National Botanical Garden in South Africa, the Nonglu Garden in Thailand, the Boboli Gardens in Italy, the Exbury Gardens in the United Kingdom, the Des Consoux Gardens in California, the Huntington Botanical Gardens in the United States, and the Pentland Gardens in British Columbia, were all built by private individuals at the beginning, and then gradually expanded to become the world's top gardens.
