There was no rush to set up the company. If Wu Fei didn't find the right person to do it himself, he didn't have the intention. Anyway, it was okay for the time being. If he had to do it himself, it would definitely be a lot of trouble, so he might as well just keep it.

It looks like this now.

It soon came to the end of April, and those who wanted to plant rice were busy plowing the fields. Originally, Wu Bang was thinking about picking up some more fields to plant rice. Unfortunately, by the end of the month, the paddy fields around the reservoir were plowing.

They were all plowed over one after another, and there was no paddy field left uncultivated.

In the past few years, in addition to planting the land that belongs to him next to his home, Wu Bang also picks up some land that others do not plant to plant some things. The places far away from home are almost all used for planting trees.

The place where trees are planted is no longer suitable for planting things.

Irrigation is inconvenient. The water canals supporting the reservoir have not been used for many years and have long since become dilapidated and completely unusable. When the reservoir was repaired in 2019, someone also proposed to repair the supporting water canals.

It's just that even the row houses with electricity for pumping water have been sold, and no one is farming, so the matter of repairing the water canals was only mentioned briefly, and in the end the repairs of the reservoir embankment were completed.

In previous years, there were very few young and strong people staying at home in the village. Many dry lands and paddy fields around the reservoir were left uncultivated and were left uncultivated. Wu Bang wanted to plant whatever land he wanted, as long as the land was given to him.

Just tell the master that's it.

As for rent, when there were many people farming in the past, one acre of land might have to be paid more than 100 kilograms of rice. However, after more and more land in the village is abandoned, there is no need to pay rent for planting other people's land.

Moreover, those who do not want to farm their own land are worried that the land will be abandoned for too long and cannot be cultivated. Instead, they hope that someone will plant their own land. Therefore, in the early years, Wu Bang did not worry about having no ground at all, and the nearby land was not available at all.

It can't be planted.

But as more people stayed in the village to grow vegetables, the land near the reservoir suddenly became a hot commodity. Starting from the second half of last year, the fields near the reservoir were gradually turned over and planted with various kinds of vegetables.

vegetables and fruits.

If people stay at home, the rice they eat every day will naturally have a source. People who farm generally don’t like to buy rice to eat, and they all want to grow it themselves. Although the same area of ​​​​these vegetables can now be purchased for several times the price.

Rice produces a lot of rice, but everyone is used to being self-sufficient, so most people still choose to grow their own rice, at least enough to feed their family.

Therefore, Wu Fei's wish to pick up a few more fields to grow rice was doomed to fail.

At the same time, due to the approaching May Day, the inn's business gradually improved after being deserted for a period of time. Moreover, Wu Fei's application on Ctrip was also approved. Wu Fei put the link between himself and Kang

The link is also shared on Liu's Moments and official account, as well as on Douyin, so that people who want to come to the inn can place orders directly through Ctrip.

The application for the store address on the three maps has also been approved, so you can search for Longshan Inn. Unlike before, the navigation can only lead to Longshan Reservoir.

Sunday, April 25th.

There are only a few days before May Day, and all 15 rooms in the inn are occupied. It is lunch time. Wu Fei and Kang Liu have had lunch early and are watching in the lobby of the inn.

The two little guys fell asleep again after eating and would not wake up until at least two o'clock in the afternoon. During this time, Wu Fei and Kang Liu could rarely relax.

There was no one in the hall, only two people were making tea in the corridor outside, and the others had gone to Xian Qiu's place for lunch.

"On the 26th, 10 people will check out tomorrow, and 6 people will move in. In this case, 10 rooms will be empty tomorrow." Wu Fei clicked on the backend, looked at the data above and said to Kang Liu.

Nowadays, most of the guests in the hotel place orders through Ctrip, so Wu Fei only needs to open the backend to see the inn's daily check-in, check-out and other information.

"It's only noon now, maybe someone will come to book a room after a while. There haven't been many people these days, but there should be more people on the first day."

Kang Liu pointed to the data on May 1st and said: "There are still several days before May 1st. Now there are 6 people who have made reservations, and they are all for two or three days. There are people who have made reservations for the entire holiday."

Well, maybe all the rooms will be booked before May Day.”

Thinking that the occupancy rate was sometimes less than half during this period, and it was still half-price, Wu Fei was a little confused: "Looking at it, these rooms may be full during the holidays. Unexpectedly, there are often discounts.

The room is empty, and more people will stay there when the original price is restored.”

Now the inn is still in the half-price discount period, but when the May Day holiday ends, the price will return to the original price. But the price is not expensive, a double room is only 108 yuan a night, and a suite is only 188 yuan a night.

"It's just that Ctrip's charges are too expensive. They actually charge a handling fee of 15% of the room rate. It feels like a trap!" After looking at the background, I found that the occupancy rate of the inn was more than half in the few days before May Day.

, Kang Liu suddenly mentioned Ctrip’s handling fee.

There is no fee to apply for an inn on Ctrip, as long as you have a business license. However, after the inn is opened and passengers place an order through Ctrip, Ctrip will charge 10% to 15% of the room price as a handling fee for each order.

Wu Fei charges 15% of the handling fee for these rooms, so even if it is the full price, Wu Fei’s final payment for room 108 is only 91 yuan.

Wu Fei had already expected this fee. Originally, others did not open such a website for charity. The process of promoting the website did not cost a lot. Anyway, Wu Fei often saw Ctrip advertisements in the past. These are all

It takes money to do it.

It's just that Wu Fei didn't expect the fees to be so expensive. But now that he has applied, Wu Fei plans to try it out for a while to see if business will be better.

The more Kang Liu thought about the handling fee, the more he felt it was too expensive, and said to Wu Fei: "Why don't we register all the rooms? Anyway, many people are contacted by WeChat. And we will be contacted by WeChat in the future.

Don’t ask them to place orders on Ctrip, just pay via WeChat like before, which can save a lot of handling fees.”
