When Miao Chen came here to investigate, he paid special attention to the accommodations in the vicinity.
There are many mountain villages around Qingfeng Mountain, and Shi Jing's land is more than half an hour's drive from the county town. Whether it's far or not, it's definitely inconvenient.
In other words, once the construction process begins, during the preliminary surveying, planning, design, and other procedures, the staff either drive more than half an hour to the county town every day or rent a place in a nearby village.
If Shi Jing had to choose for herself, she would definitely prefer to rent a house in the village.
Of course, she wasn't a dictator. With Zhao Xunkan coming over, they could discuss things.
"The children must be hungry too. Let's eat first, and we can talk about everything after we finish eating." In the end, Grandpa Jane made the final decision.
They had a lively lunch with the Jian family, and after the meal, instead of discussing business, they called Jian Rong and the group went to explore the mountains together. Jian Rong's cousin also went along.
This was Shi Jing's first time here, while Zhao Xunkan and Jiang Qingyue had been before. However, back then, the two of them were always led directly to their destination and hadn't really had a chance to explore properly. This time, they invited Jian Rong's cousin along to act as a guide.
Xiaogou Village is relatively close to the destination; it can almost be considered one of the closest villages.
Jian Rong's cousin, Jian Li, led the way, chatting with Shi Jing and the others as they walked.
Are you planning to come here to see the hot springs or camp?
"Are there many people camping here?" Shi Jing inquired.
"Not many, really. There are hot springs here, and people from the surrounding area occasionally come to visit. But I doubt it will last long; it seems like this area is about to be developed," Jian Li said.
"Huh? Is it going to be developed? Didn't they say there hadn't been any progress for years?" Jian Rong asked curiously.
“I think it should be soon. A while ago, someone came to the village looking for someone to take them into the mountains to look at the land. I heard that the person who bought the land sent them.”
"I see."
Listening to the siblings' discussion, Shi Jing quietly interjected, "Well, if all goes well, it should be soon."
"Hey, Shi Jing, how did you know?" Jian Rong asked, looking surprised. Suddenly, a thought struck her, and she blurted out, "Could it be that you all came here for this?"
This matter had to be brought up sooner or later, and Shi Jing had no intention of hiding it.
"Hmm." She touched her nose and admitted, "If they don't have any objections, construction can start here anytime."
Upon hearing this, the Jian siblings both looked at Zhao Xun and Kan.
“You’re the boss, of course we have to listen to you,” Zhao Xunkan retorted.
"Huh?!" Jian Rong exclaimed in shock.
Shi Jing looked at Zhao Xunkan, which meant he had agreed to cooperate.
"Wait, you mean this is Shi Jing's territory?!"
"Yes," Shi Jing explained, "I just bought it a while ago, so I came to take a look during my holiday."
"Then why did you keep it from me?" Jian Rong rolled her eyes at her.
Shi Jing quickly begged for forgiveness: "No way, I told you right away!"
Jian Rong huffed and puffed.
Once outside the highway area, the road surface deteriorates. Driving isn't a big problem, but since it will be used as a business location in the future, the road will definitely need to be repaired first.
The mountainous area is vast, stretching to another peak, but there aren't many places truly suitable for building a mountain resort. Shi Jing and his group first went to see the site they had previously selected. It was relatively flat and close to the hot spring, making it ideal for building the resort.
It's clear that the plan was made with great care. If Qin Yi weren't so unreliable, this place would have been quite nice.
"I think this location is well chosen, and subsequent plans should still focus on building around this area."
“Indeed,” Zhao Xunkan agreed.
Jiang Qingyue also thought it was very good and nodded repeatedly.
"As for the specific facilities and buildings, we still need to make some plans. Since it's a place for leisure and entertainment, we should also make good use of the surrounding mountains." Thinking that the original plan was mainly for adventure tourism for young people, Shi Jing felt that it could be adjusted slightly.
They climbed the mountain and looked around, gaining a deep impression of many places.
"Is this the original plan for the rock climbing center?" Shi Jing asked, looking at a steep cliff.
“Yes,” Zhao Xunkan replied.
Shi Jing nodded. Many young people nowadays have an adventurous spirit and enjoy outdoor challenges like this.
However, for Shi Jing, the operation of the resort should primarily focus on activities that are safe and relaxing. After all, this better meets the needs of the general public, and the resort is built to generate profit.
"How about this, we'll keep rock climbing, and also develop some more popular recreational activities, like rafting."
She looked at the surrounding mountains and could see the lush forests in the distance. It was the season for fruit to fall, and she saw many wild fruits along the way.
"We could also invite someone to come and take a look, choose some places to plant fruit trees, so guests can experience the joy of picking their own fruit. We could also tidy up the lakes and ponds in the mountains, and create some fishing spots..."
Shi Jing listed all the points she could think of, planning to try them out later and keep the suitable ones.
“It is possible,” Jiang Qingyue said after thinking for a moment, “but doing it this way might require a higher investment.”
"Take it one step at a time, no rush."
They didn't plan to see the whole mountain in one day. It was such a vast area, and they were exhausted from walking and exploring as they went.
It was almost dark when we got back.
As soon as the group arrived at the village entrance, they saw Jian Rong's mother looking out from there. Upon seeing them, she quickly came to greet them.
"Why are you back so late? It's dark on the mountain at night, and it's not safe."
"I'm sorry, Auntie, I accidentally wandered a bit too far." Shi Jing quickly apologized.
"It's not your fault." With that, Jian's mother poked Jian Li's forehead. "You rascal, you don't know the guests well, do you?
“Hey, Auntie, I know what I'm doing,” he replied with a smile.
The group chatted and laughed as they returned to the Jian family home. A large lamp was lit in the courtyard, making it brightly lit.
Hearing the commotion, the Jian family came to greet them.
"The children are back, come inside quickly," Grandma Jane said.
Upon entering the house, they found that dinner was already neatly laid out on the table, and the whole family had not eaten yet, but were waiting for them.
They came over and made the hosts wait for them to eat for two consecutive meals, which made Shi Jing and his family feel quite embarrassed.
"Grandpa and Grandma, why don't you eat first? It's too much trouble for everyone to wait." Zhao Xunkan also felt that it was too much of a bother for them.
"It's alright, it's alright, nobody's hungry, it'll be fine in a bit," Mr. Jane quickly reassured her.
After exchanging a few words, everyone sat down to eat without further delay.
