On the island of Ameland in the West Friesian Islands, Marin sent people to open a new port called Romani. All inferior wines imported from Bordeaux will be transported to the port of Romani on the island of Ameland. Then, glycerol, lactic acid bacteria, potassium bicarbonate and sulfur are added to the huge houses in the port for secondary processing.
Then, the quality of "Burgundy High-quality Wine" is engraved on the wine barrel in French, and the boastful advertising slogan "Provincial Youge Youge You".
Some of the top wines with very good quality after secondary processing will be engraved with the words "Romaniconti" in French.
Romani Conte is the top wine brand in later generations, ranking first, while Rafi is ranked tenth, at the end of the crane. Moreover, Romani Conte is a winery in the Burgundy wine region. Rafi winery comes from the Bordeaux region.
Of course, the name of Romani Conte has not yet appeared. Now, the Romani Conte winery is still a local winery called Saint-Vewan Monastery. It was not until 1681, when Louis XIV, who did not like to take a bath, that it was renamed Romani Conte. Then, in 1760, the winery returned to Prince Conte of the Bourbon Dynasty, and the winery produced the wines of the winery were officially named "Romani Conte", a brand that resounded throughout the years.
But now, there is no Romani, nor Conti, only Marin, a time traveler full of evil taste. Therefore, those wines with the best quality after being transformed by additives will use the name of Conti.
However, this has a problem - there is no Romani winery in the world, where does the Romani Conti brand come from? After all, nobles have to listen to stories when drinking. Without a good story, it feels like the wine is not very good enough...
So Marin remembered the Twin Islands of North America, the island called Masa Vineyard Island in later generations, which was named Columbus Island by Marin.
But Marin did not plan to plant grapes and make wine on this small island, because the island is too small and not very valuable. Perhaps, in later generations, this island was a very good summer resort. But in this era, people were still running to fill their stomachs, so where could they have time to go on vacation on the island?
In addition, the vineyard requires a lot of manual service, and winemaking requires labor, which is very troublesome. But now there are no people on the Twin Islands in North America, and most of the trees on the island have been cut down. The land on the island is not fertile enough, and there is no river to provide sufficient irrigation water. Therefore, the most common ones on the island are pastures, used to raise horses, raise donkeys, and... use horses and donkeys to counterweights to obtain mules... Therefore, the Twin Islands in North America are also called "Mule Horse Island"... Well, it is not Rome, but mule horses... Simply put, it is a large mule breeding center...
These two islands have other uses, so Marin did not plan to plant grapes and make wine on the island. However, there is a place that is quite suitable, that is, the Demava Peninsula, also known as the Delaware Peninsula.
This peninsula, which is about 14,000 square kilometers, was the place where Kahn performed before and was used to accommodate 300,000 French immigrants.
It should be pointed out that most of the 300,000 French immigrants come from the border areas of northeastern France. Some of them happen to be from Burgundy. Many people even worked in wineries, managed vineyards and picked grapes for the owners of the winery.
Of course, there are no winemakers in it. Because winemakers are "high-tech talents" in this era and are very popular, especially those with good winemaking skills. Such people cannot become refugees and are forced to escape famine. If this winery collapses, winemakers can easily find another winery to join and get a high salary.
If you meet a winemaker who escapes famine, then there are only two possibilities - one is that the winemaker has poor winemaking skills and the wine it produces is very difficult to drink; the other possibility is that this guy offended someone he can't afford to offend and was wanted...
Therefore, among the 300,000 Northeastern French victims, a considerable number of people have worked in wineries, but winemakers will not have them.
But this is not a problem for Marin, and Marin doesn't want to make any good wine. What he wants is just a title...
...
In other words, Marin has already thought of an economic project for these 300,000 French victims - planting grapes! Then, make wine!
Of course, winemaker Marin can help solve it. By the way, Marin established a huge winery in his hometown of Bochum. In the winery, there is a winemaker training class. It mainly teaches apprentices to make tan beer and white wines like Erguotou, but there are also people who teach wine making. Because there are also grape plantations on the banks of the Rhine River in Ruhr. Although there are not many, there are also some.
In addition to the religious significance of wine, grape cultivation is also very popular. It should be pointed out that precisely because of the religious significance of wine, the bishops who are most keen on growing grapes and making wine are actually the bishops of the bishops. After all, spending money to buy wine, especially high-end wine, is very expensive. Everyone’s finances are not very good, so if possible, try to grow grapes and make wine by themselves.
For example, Moselle, the most famous wine producing area in Germany in later generations, is located in the current Archbishop of Trier, and is also an industry that Archbishop of Trier fully supports. After all, the Bishop of Bishop has a high consumption of wine, so naturally hopes to grow good grapes at home and make high-end wines that are in line with the archbishop's identity.
Another important German wine production area, Rhinegao, is located near Mainz, and is developed with the support of the Archbishop of Mainz.
The Al region south of Bonn is a wine-producing area supported by Archbishop of Cologne. Although there are not many vineyards in the Rhine River in the North Sea, there are also some. Therefore, a group of winemakers who can make wine can be drawn in the Bochum winery.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Marin plans to use the 300,000 French immigrants to open up large vineyards on the Delava Peninsula to plant and make wine. As for the grape-growing varieties, Marin plans to introduce the main Bordeaux variety Cabernet Sauvignon, rather than the main Burgundy variety Pinot Noir.
Mainly, Pinot Noir grapes are too difficult to serve, very delicate and poorly adaptable. Cabernet Sauvignon can adapt to climates around the world very well.
In addition, Cabernet Sauvignon has a thick skin, which can effectively resist rot caused by freezing and rain, and is not prone to problems. In addition, Cabernet Sauvignon grapes have very low soil requirements, and as long as they drain well and gravel soil can grow well.
Just so happens that Marin does not trust the French enough. If he is growing rye or wheat, Marin is still worried that there will be French spies in it and steal the fertilizer secretly. And planting grapes with low soil requirements is the best choice. Although you steal secrets, I don’t plan to apply much fertilizer to the vineyards anyway. Although fertilization can increase production, Marin is still cautious before confirming that there are no spies in the French immigrants on the Delava Peninsula.
Even if there is rye cultivation on the peninsula, Marin did not intend to provide fertilizer, but let it play its own way. However, Marin did not intend to let go of the 300,000 French immigrants. He planned to use a batch of ships to collect the feces of these people, and then transport them to the Philadelphia area to process them into soil and fertilize. Then, the fertilizer was transported to the New York colony for wheat fertilization.
As for the French immigrants on the Delava Peninsula, Marin temporarily only plans to let them grow grapes and freely grow rye. In addition, they support them in raising horses, cattle and sheep. These industries have low requirements for fertilizers and are suitable for development.
Also, Marin plans to draw tens of thousands of young and strong people from the 300,000 French people to specialize in logging and wood processing!
There are so many timbers on the North American continent. However, logging, processing and transportation require a large number of people. Obviously, these French immigrants who have not been fully trusted are good loggers, wood processing workers and transporters...
These woods, especially oak, are made into oak barrels in addition to being used as shipbuilding. Oak barrels are standard for wine making. Although they are not as good as French oak barrels, they can also be used. The key is that North American oak wood is cost-effective!
The forests on the entire continent are all from Marin and can be cut down at will. Unlike the forests on the European continent, they are basically private property of nobles and are expensive.
In addition, in this era, everything was shipped in wooden barrels. Rice and flour were loaded in wooden barrels, salt was loaded in wooden barrels, gunpowder, and wine... Therefore, the demand for shipbuilding wood was much different from the demand for wood in wooden barrels.
Although Marin used a strategy to send people to purchase oak to make wine barrels in France to consume the potential of French shipbuilding. However, it did not affect Marin's production of wooden barrels in North America. After all, those barrels are of poor quality and are not used for making wine, but can also be used to hold other things.
Therefore, the future Delava Peninsula will be called a barrel making base, using endless wood from the North American continent to process and manufacture wooden barrels to meet the increasing demand for maritime trade in the future.
In addition to making barrels, Marin also lets these French immigrants use wood to make furniture. However, they are not allowed to participate in shipbuilding. Mainly, Marin is afraid that someone will be recalled by the King of War in the future. After all, loyalty to the monarch and kingdom is unreasonable. If those craftsmen who are still finally in France go back with their shipbuilding skills, it would be a bad idea. And if they make barrels and build furniture, Marin doesn't care. Because their craftsmanship is very wasteful of wood... Looking at the world, there are probably only places like North American, so they are not afraid of them wasting wood. After all, North American continent is full of wood, as long as you spend your effort to cut and process, there will be countless wood available. In the old continent of Europe, there are probably only mountains and Nordic areas, with relatively abundant wood resources. Western Europe, due to the high development level, there are not much wood. Especially high-quality oak, there are very few.
