The next day, the people in Xujia Village got up before dawn. Uncle Xu prepared the tools for fishing and shrimping, which he bought in the town.

The stall was set up in an open space not far from the foot of the mountain.

After a while, the residents of Xingfu's house also came one after another, set up their stalls, and helped everyone with the work while no one else came.

There are various flowers planted on the roadside, and there is a wooden sign next to them that reminds people: "Don't pick me, it will hurt the flower!" The interesting slogan makes it look more childlike and cute.

The beds in the villagers' guest rooms are all brand new. They are all white, which makes people feel clean and tidy. There are also plum blossoms embroidered on them with silver silk threads.

The sky gradually brightened, and from time to time, villagers looked towards the village entrance, waiting for the arrival of the first batch of tourists.

"Is someone coming?" Xu Daniu rubbed his eyes and pointed to the front.

"Yes! Someone is coming. He's a bit far away, so I can't see what he looks like. He's driving a carriage."

The village chief said, "Everyone, disperse! There are so many people gathered at the village entrance. Don't scare the guests away!"

"The village chief is right, everyone should be where they are!"

All the villagers dispersed at once.

The people on the stone road were getting closer and closer, and gradually became clearer.

"It turns out to be Manager Hong from Leshan Pharmacy." Xu Chunsheng said.

The old man immediately stepped forward and asked, "Why is Shopkeeper Hong here?"

Shopkeeper Hong said with a smile, "I'm here to show my support for you! It's just dawn now, so even if someone comes, they'll have to wait a while. Don't worry, there will definitely be a lot of people here today. There were quite a few strangers in town yesterday. I guess they either came for the civil and military events or for your publicity."

The old man said, "Okay, come sit down at Shopkeeper Hong's house!"

Shopkeeper Hong waved his hand and said, "I'm just here as a tourist today!"

Manager Hong knew everyone in Xujia Village, and he was a little dumbfounded when he heard him say that.

Shopkeeper Hong smiled and said, "I'm here to fish. How much is it?"

The old man said, "Why should I charge you for coming here? Feel free to fish."

Shopkeeper Hong said, "No, it's not right to do business without charging money. Besides, I'm your first customer, it wouldn't be nice not to charge."

The old man said, "Okay, a fishing rod costs 200 coins. As long as you are skilled, all you can catch is yours. You can choose any villager to prepare the fish you catch into a dish."

Shopkeeper Hong said, "Two hundred coins. If you have the leisure time to come out for a trip, who would care about this little money? It's not too expensive. You can eat and have fun. Two hundred coins is worth it."

After saying that, he took out two hundred coins and handed them to the man in charge of watching the fishing gear. This man was also a member of the Xingfu family. He was mainly responsible for guarding the fishing gear and fish baskets, and he had to record every payment he received.

Shopkeeper Hong took the fishing rod and basket handed to him, found a chair to sit down, strung the bait and started fishing, saying, "You guys go about your business!"

It made everyone laugh and cry.

Gradually, the sun came out.

"Village chief, people are coming! There are quite a few of them! They are all riding in horse-drawn carriages!" said a sharp-eyed man.

The people in Xujia Village were all excited. When the carriages arrived at the village entrance, a young man jumped down from the shaft of the first carriage.

"Mr. Xu, I'm here to bring tourists!" The young man ran up to the Xu family with a silly smile on his face and said.

The young man was also a resident of Xingfu's home. The old man asked, "Erwa, why did you bring so many people?"

Erwa said, "They all came from other towns and wanted to visit Xujia Village, so I brought them here."

The old man praised: "Erwa, you did a good job. I will give you a reward at the end of the month."

Erwa said, "My benefactor, I don't want any reward. My mother said we should repay you. I will go and get some more people here in the next few days." After saying that, he ran out of the village.

The old man tried to pull her back but failed. He smiled and shook his head, saying, "Boss, give Erwa and the others a reward at the end of the month. They've put a lot of energy into promoting us, and we can't let them work for nothing."

At this time, everyone in the carriage got off. There were men and women. Some looked like families with children who came to play. There was also a carriage with several boys and girls who got off. They were all dressed very elegantly.

The village chief said, "Welcome everyone to visit Xujia Village. This is your first time here. Do you need me to introduce the characteristics of our village?"

These people got off the carriage and looked around. Everything here was exactly as the young man described. It was very beautiful. The air was filled with the fragrance of flowers, and rows of new and beautiful wooden houses were neatly arranged.

A young girl said, "I heard that Xujia Village has a fifteen-year-old boy who has won the title of Jieyuan. I wonder if I could have the honor of meeting him?"

"This..." The village chief was a little embarrassed.

Seeing the village chief hesitate, the girl did not make things difficult for him. She said, "Since it's inconvenient, then forget it. Xujia Village is indeed unique and the scenery is beautiful. I wonder if there is anything fun to do here?"

At this moment, there was a "crash" sound.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw Manager Hong standing up and pulling the fishing rod upward. A carp weighing about three or four pounds floated to the surface of the water, its tail slapping the water.

"Wow! This carp is really big." said the middle-aged man.

The woman next to him said, "You came here just because you like the fishing. Go ahead. I'll take my son somewhere else."

The middle-aged man said, "Okay, who's the boss? Help me get a fishing rod. I want to try my luck."

The man who was watching the fishing gear was called Tie Niu. Upon hearing this, he immediately handed over a fishing rod and said, "Sir, this rod is 200 wen. No matter how many fish you catch, it's all yours."
