There were so many places to look at to have fun, as long as the tourists had a mind to visit, it was enough to play on these places for two or three days.

If a tourist could stay for such a long time, it would be profitable for him.

Zhang Fangyuan stroke while the iron was still hot. He had to discuss this matter with the bosses and village chiefs. Those people had known that the people in the city went to visit Hongshi Village and seen the benefits, and he was sure that he could persuade them with his eagerness.

He first went to Xinlong Tea Garden, and their tea shed often bought the tea from them. The tea garden staff would occasionally stop there to eat a bowl of noodles when passing through the tea shed, and he was familiar with the man.

"Boss Zhang, are you done with the tea again? Your business is really booming!"

Zhang Fangyuan rode a horse to the outside of the tea garden, he looked at the short, waist-length tea trees that were carefully pruned, lingering neatly and smoothly on the mountain, stretching as far as the eye could see.

The tea trees were full of green. This time had passed the season to pick young tea leaves, and now was the time to pick the older tea leaves. In the tea garden, there were a lot of women and children wearing bamboo hat, they were picking tea while talking and laughing. Even a rough man like Zhang Fangyuan felt a sense of relief in such an open land.

The owner of the tea garden was not tall, a little short and fat. He just came back from outside and happened to meet a man on a horse on the road.

Zhang Fangyuan got down from his horse and said to the owner of the tea garden: "Come here to get some tea, and discuss some small things with Boss Huang along the way."

Huang Jian was also a polite person, upon hearing the words, he immediately invited Zhang Fangyuan to his house.

"I have heard about this, and I was invited by my friends in the city to go there two days ago. The scenery of Hongshi Village is really beautiful." Huang Jian took a sip of tea and said again: "I'm very interested in Boss Zhang's proposal.

Although the tea business was profitable, the Huang family's tea garden was not that big, and there was no world-famous tea. The business to supply the tea had always been in the state of tepid . Naturally, businessmen knew the fact that they shouldn't put all their eggs in one basket.

[把所有的鸡蛋都放到一个篮子里: Put all your eggs in one basket (idiom) to pin all hopes or money on a project or plan. Put all your eggs in one basket, once the basket falls, the eggs are all broken and all is lost.]

The emperor encouraged the ministers to encourage the free airing of views, and merchants were also thinking about ways to make money day by day.

[广开言路 guǎng kāi yán lù: to encourage the free airing of views (idiom), creating conditions for the people below to express their opinions as much as possible.]

"However, I will say this first, if my tea garden accepts tourists, I will definitely build a pavilion and an inn in the tea garden."

"It's natural."

Zhang Fangyuan understood what Huang Jian meant, the ugly words were discussed in the front. He also wanted to open an inn and a place to have a meal for the tourists. As for whether he would grab his business, he didn't know.

Each business depended on the owner's ability. There were many inns everywhere in the city, and they all could take their own customers.

"These are easy to talk about, the most important thing is to persuade people in this area to join together."

Huang Jian said: "Boss Hu, the owner of the forest is my friend, so it will be easy to talk about. There is a meditation room in the Guanyin Temple to welcome guests and offer incense, needless to say, several more villages are needed to cooperate. "

It was a surprise for Zhang Fangyuan that Huang Jian was willing to talk about it. He patted the corner of his sleeve and said, "Let me give a try for the villages, and the rest is up to Boss Huang."

Zhang Fangyuan focused on his own village and Tangjia Village. Other villages could be ignored for the time being, but the tea shed was backed by Jijiu Village. If tourists came, the best thing was to have fun in the village and stay in their inn outside the village.

At night, Xu He cooked some delicious dishes, and Zhang Fangyuan invited the village chief to his home to discuss what their village could do.

"Okay, it will be great if it can be done."

Zhang Fangyuan poured some wine for the village chief, "I'm just afraid that the villagers won't agree.

The little old man straightened his neck immediately, and changed to his usual serious look when he held a meeting: "If some people want to oppose it, then do what you like, if you don't want to make money, then don't do it."

Zhang Fangyuan laughed, the village chief could manage the village and he really did have something on him.

"The important thing is what are we going to do in the village, are we going to plant some flowers like Hongshi Village? Our village is closer to the city than Hongshi Village."

Zhang Fangyuan waved his hand directly: "If we do the same thing, I'm afraid the two villages will become enemies. We are all fellow villagers, which is inappropriate."

"Then tell me, is there anything that can be done?” The village chief’s eyes were bright, and he picked up a chopstick of meat and looked at Zhang Fangyuan.

"There is nothing special about our village. Since there are more people raising silkworms and fish, we should grow more mulberry trees and open a few more fish ponds for fishing. The mulberries could be picked when they are ripe."

Zhang Fangyuan said again: "Let the villagers open up more wasteland to grow fruits and vegetables. We will make plantation, and then enthusiastically promote to the people in the city to go to our plantation to pick vegetables by themselves. They can also bring the vegetables back to the city or bring them to my tea shed to make them as meals. Leaving the village after a whole tour, no matter how beautiful the scenery is, you have to eat something, right? It’s always right to eat.”
