Many people who had been here before were very unhappy when they first heard that the village had to charge fees.
After all, when I came here a few days ago, I didn't say anything about paying, which was a bit unacceptable for a while.
However, after the village presented the facts and reasoned, everyone could understand why the money was collected.
And the money really wasn’t much, so everyone accepted it easily.
Everyone knows that the littering situation is really bad, it is caused by everyone, and it needs someone to take care of it.
Few of these people who come out specifically to play really care about the small money of one or two yuan.
What they care about is an attitude. As long as everyone explains things clearly, most people can understand.
People who are really reluctant to part with such a small amount of money will probably not go out specifically to play. They will save money by staying at home.
And after cleaning, it will be clean and everyone will feel more comfortable coming over to play.
You can't go out to play and find garbage piles everywhere. That would be too embarrassing.
In this way, Changqing Water Park officially opened for business.
The people in the village now also take advantage of every opportunity and know that there are many people in the lotus pond.
Many people who used to run food stalls at the head of the village set up their stalls directly on the edge of the river beach.
You wouldn’t know it if you didn’t go, but you’d be shocked once you go. The things you make in one day are simply in short supply.
When I went home in the evening, I was counting the whole day's sales, and everyone's face was filled with joy.
Although it was hot and tiring, I also made a lot of money.
In this way, where there is the first one, there will be the second one, and everyone will follow suit and set up a stall.
Now the flooded pond is full of tourists and stalls during the day.
Zhang An also felt strange after seeing so many people going to the countryside, because there were too many people this year.
But after talking to a few tourists from the city later, I knew the reason.
Zhang An learned from their mouths that the city was not easy this year, and it was also very hot.
Zhang An thought it was very hot in the village before, but when people from the city came to the mountains, they felt much cooler.
That is to say, Zhang An rarely goes to the city, otherwise he would not be so overwhelmed with blessings.
For a time, Changqing Village relied on Dahe's reputation.
Among the nearby ten miles and eight villages, it really made a splash.
And many villages along the river were very jealous when they saw that Changqing Village was making money.
I thought that if Changqing could do this through the river, they would definitely be able to do it here too.
Therefore, several villages want to replicate the model of Changqing Village.
But they ignored one issue, which was the geographical location and topography of Changqing Village.
This big river does flow through many villages, but there are very few places with riverbanks like flooded ponds.
Changqing Village can accommodate so many tourists not only because of the river, but also because of the spacious river beach.
And most importantly, among the villages along the river, Changqing is the closest village to Hongyan Town, and it is also the village where the county road passes directly through the village entrance.
In addition, over the past year, Zhang Jianwen has been committed to improving the environment and public facilities in the village.
The weather is hot and it is a good time for everyone to go to the countryside to escape the heat.
And because Changqing Village has a unique geographical location, the village developed this river beach according to local conditions, which is considered a geographical advantage.
And because the environment of the village is well maintained, it is relatively close to the town, and there are many horse-drawn carriages carrying passengers, which can be regarded as a harmonious relationship.
Therefore, the success of Changqing Village is determined by the right time, place and people, and there is no chance.
It's not impossible for other villages to copy this model, but it will take a lot of time.
"Xiao An, Xiao Ding called, please come and pick it up."
Zhang An was talking in the yard with a few tourists who came to have dinner, when he heard Wang Fang calling him from inside the house.
There are a lot of people coming to Zhang An's house now, most of them are families with their children.
In the past two days, whether it was in the house or in the courtyard, basically everything was on the table.
Even in the backyard, tables are set up during meals, so it can be said that business is very hot.
So it's a little noisy downstairs and it's not convenient to talk.
So Zhang An hung up the phone directly, went back upstairs and called Ding Yi back.
"Zhang An, it's too hot in the city now. I plan to take Li Li to your place to play for a few days tomorrow."
"Hey, that's it. You can just come directly. Ganha even called me specifically to talk about it."
What did Zhang An think? He just came to the village to play for a few days.
There are many rooms in our house, so we can accommodate them.
"By the way, what have you been doing during this time? I haven't seen you recently when I went to the countryside to collect goods."
Since the last time he came to buy watermelons and strawberries, Ding Yi seemed to have disappeared.
The people who have been buying mountain goods recently are all his employees. When Zhang An asked, they said that Ding Yi was away because of something.
In the past, this guy would definitely have followed Zhang An's house and had a few meals.
So I haven't seen him here recently, Zhang An guessed that he must be busy with other things.
"Hey, I was asked by the old man to go back to the provincial capital some time ago, and I only came back in the past few days."
Zhang An heard Ding Yi's somewhat wilted tone on the phone and thought he was bored by the weather.
"Anyway, let's talk about this matter tomorrow. I happen to have something to ask you about."
"Hmm, that's okay. It just so happens that the village has recently built a water park. You can go and have fun when you come."
"That sounds pretty good. Then I'm going to have a lot of fun over there for a few days."
After hanging up the phone, Zhang An found that several more tables of guests had arrived at his home.
Zhang An's house has always had a relatively low consumption, which is much higher than several restaurants in the village.
However, the price was determined by Zhang Anding, and it is reasonable for them to be expensive.
After all, their ingredients are the only ones on the market. For this reason alone, the expensive ones are more reasonable.
And this was Zhang An's intention, using price to screen customers.
In this way, many people will choose other restaurants in the village because of the price, so that the people in the village can open it.
After such screening, Zhang An's family was left with some high-quality customers.
In this way, Wang Fang and Zhang Jianguo have something to do, but they will not be too tired.
Zhang An thinks this is a great way to get the best of both worlds, and it is really good if everyone is doing well.
Wang Fang used to think that the prices on the menu at home were too expensive.
But later I discovered that my business was not bad at all.
After many people come here once, they come here for a meal every time, and there are many repeat customers.
Most of the people who come to Zhang An's house for dinner are family units, with four or five people coming together.
Because Zhang An's house is relatively spacious, whether it is in the yard or in the lobby, the family is not crowded at all when they sit together alone.
Moreover, Zhang An’s family also has a separate private room. Many people think that it is very dignified to sit in the private room.
They are all people who come out to have fun. As long as they spend money, they will gain face. So is spending money a problem?
So for this reason, the people who come to Zhang An's house are not money-hungry people.
There are a lot more people in the family, and Wang Fang and Zhang An's two aunts are already a little busy in the kitchen.
Zhang An's two aunts just wanted to come over to help, but Wang Fang insisted on paying them wages.
Originally, they thought that since they were all sisters-in-law and relatives, how could they collect money when they came to help?
But Wang Fang thought that just because we were relatives and sisters-in-law, it was impossible not to give her this money.
Even if I hire someone from outside, I have to pay for the work, and my relatives will pay for it, so I can't accept it if I don't want it.
Seeing that the kitchen was extremely busy, Zhang An also put on an apron and started to help with the ingredients.
When necessary, Zhang An will go over and help with the cooking.
It was busy until seven or eight o'clock, when all the tourists who came to Zhang An's house dispersed.
After these people left, some people stayed in B&Bs in the village at night.
Because they want to play here tomorrow, it is very convenient to live in the village.
Some people choose to take a carriage back to the town to stay in a hotel, and may want to change places to relax tomorrow.
At this time, many people come here with their families on Saturdays and Sundays. After playing for two days, they have to go back to work.
Therefore, the highest flow of people in the village starts from Friday and is the highest on Sunday.
On other days, there are relatively fewer people in the village.
After greeting all the guests at home, Zhang An's family started to prepare for dinner.
In the evening, Wang Fang prepared a lot of dishes, and the family sat together and ate dinner happily.
Not to mention, she earns more money every day and her appetite increases a lot when eating. Wang Fang now feels that everything she eats tastes good.
Normally, in such a hot weather, I can't eat anything, so I just cook some cold dishes and eat them.
After dinner, Zhang An picked up the phone and dialed Su Ying.
"Yingying, you don't have much time before school starts. Why don't you come here early, just to avoid the summer heat."
Zhang An thought that even Ding Yi felt hot, so it would not be easy in the city.
Nowadays, there are very few houses in the city with air conditioning. On hot days, fans are all needed.
Moreover, school will start in more than a week, and Su Ying will have to come and report by then.
So Zhang An thought, instead of letting Su Ying come over in advance, he would just go to the village to escape the summer heat.
After listening to many tourists' comments in the past two days, Zhang An suddenly felt that the village was not so hot anymore.
"Okay, then I'll pack my things and I'll come over in two days."
Su Ying thought about it, Wu Qiuping and Su Shaowen both went to work during the day.
She was the only one at home most of the time, and it was not interesting to stay there.
"Don't wait for two days. My mother misses you very much. You pack your things now and come over tomorrow."
Although the two of them were just engaged and not married, it was no problem for Su Ying to come and stay for a few days.
And now the school has allocated dormitories to them, teachers from the city, so they can move in directly before the semester starts.
"Okay, I'll pack my things later, but you don't have to come to pick me up tomorrow. I can just come by train."
Su Ying thought for a while and agreed, but she didn't want Zhang An to pick her up.
Now you can take the train to Hongyan Town, which is very convenient.
It takes Zhang An four hours to travel back and forth, which is very time-consuming.
So she could take the train there, but she didn't want Zhang An to run around on the road in such a hot day.
"No need to take the train. Ding Yi will bring his wife to the village for a few days tomorrow. I'll just ask him to stop by and pick you up tomorrow."
Su Ying heard that it was a ride-along and Zhang An didn't need to go there in person, so she agreed.
The two whispered a few words on the phone, then Su Ying hung up and started packing her things.
She had to bring everything she needed to bring with her this time, so as not to have to go back later.
After hanging up the phone, Wang Fang walked over from the next room.
"Xiao'an, do you want Yingying to come with you tomorrow?"
Knowing that Ding Yi would come over tomorrow to stay for a few days, she just cleaned up the room nearby.
So she heard clearly what Zhang An told Su Ying on the phone.
"Yeah, she's going to come over in a few days anyway, so I'll ask her to come a few days in advance."
After Wang Fang heard this, she happily went to the room next to Zhang An to tidy up.
That was the room where Su Ying stayed every time she came to Zhang An's house. In Wang Fang's heart, that was Su Ying's room.
On weekdays, when guests come, Wang Fang also arranges to stay in other rooms.
Then Zhang An remembered that he had just been busy talking to his mother and had not yet called Ding Yi to tell him to help pick him up.
Then I dialed Ding's family phone number again, but it kept ringing for a long time and no one answered.
Just when Zhang An thought there was no one in Ding's family, the call was connected.
"Hey, Zhang An, what's wrong?"
From the phone, Zhang An heard Ding Yi's voice panting slightly, as if he was very tired.
Then I suddenly realized that it was so late at night that the couple was not contributing to a great cause.
If that were the case, it would be a big sin for me to make the call myself.
"Um, Old Ding, are you busy?" Zhang An asked angrily.
"Um, no, I was exercising just now. If you have anything to say, just tell me."
When he heard the word exercise, Zhang An felt that he was really disturbing others.
This won't work. When Ding Yi comes over tomorrow, I will definitely get him an old turtle to patch him up.
"That's right, Su Ying is coming over tomorrow, so I want your help to pick her up on the way."
"Yeah, it's simple. Just give me her home address and I'll just run over there tomorrow morning."
It was a personal matter on the way, and Ding agreed immediately.
Moreover, he knew Su Ying, she was Chen Ze's sister, and they had been to Zhang An's house together before.
But then, he felt something was not quite right.
"That Zhang An, my brother asked you, is there something going on between you and Lao Chen's girl..."
Zhang An asked him to pick up Su Ying, which meant that Chen Ze didn't come with him this time, otherwise there would be nothing wrong with him.
Ding Yi suddenly remembered that several times when Zhang An went to the city, he said he had something to do, and it seemed that he was looking for Su Ying.
"What? Are you talking about Chen Ning? I have nothing to do with her, so I don't want to talk nonsense."
However, Zhang An was stunned by these words. He felt that Ding Yi was asking about Chen Ning.
"No, I'm talking about Su Ying. Isn't Su Ying also Lao Chen's sister? And you have gone to see her before."
"Oh, what you said scared me to death."
Zhang An was really scared just now. He thought Ding Yi said that he and Chen Ning had something to do with each other.
