The month of marine development passed quickly, and the zoo's ticket price was adjusted again, increasing to 70 yuan per person.
The price increase wasn't a spur-of-the-moment decision by Su Zhou; every penny was carefully considered. For example, the zoo's operating costs and the expansion of its animal enclosures meant that without raising ticket prices, the zoo might have incurred losses.
The reasonable range for ticket prices is calculated professionally by the system, which provides a reasonable range within which Su Zhou often chooses the lowest ticket price.
Although the ticket price has increased from 15 yuan at the beginning of last year to 70 yuan now, and has been adjusted several times, tourists have not complained about the price increase.
The zoo's facilities are visibly advanced, and prices within the zoo are specially controlled. Where else can you find so many fancy features? The pair of chimpanzees at Wanling Zoo alone are truly exceptional.
This sea area has been completely developed, and the surrounding continuous mountains and thorny bushes have been leveled. It is a very clean sea area, with various colored seashells faintly visible on the soft and fine sand, which glitters in the warm winter sun.
The development of the sea area has resulted in a small cluster of houses along the beach, generally two or three stories high, painted in various colors, which look like illustrations from a fairy tale book when viewed from a distance.
"Do I need to unlock other homestay developments or hotels myself?" With the sea breeze blowing in her face, Su Zhou stretched out her arms, feeling the refreshing sea breeze entering her sleeves. She walked on the soft sand towards the beach recreational facilities, which were suitable for sunbathing and children could play on the slides.
Su Zhou walked up to those buildings, which all had signs and different functions and responsibilities, including milk tea shops, guesthouses, water bars, etc. They were generally shops that could make a profit, and all the related supporting facilities were available.
There is also a road that leads directly to the aquarium; they are interconnected.
[Yes, host. The beach resort only provides basic facilities. If you want more detailed information, you'll need to explore it yourself.] The system's soft, cute, synthesized electronic voice had a slight inflection.
Su Zhou nodded thoughtfully, sat down at the seaside bar, ordered a "Sunset Glow" drink, and watched the sea being gilded with a red glow in the dim sunlight, with birds flying low in the distance, a truly beautiful scene.
This year has been a bit too busy, Su Zhou rubbed her temples.
She began to understand how hard her parents had worked to support her in the past. Now that everything was steadily improving, she decided to call Wang Xingyue.
A moment later, Wang Xingyue's gentle and beautiful face appeared in the camera, with a faint smile in the corner of her eyes.
She was busy working in the studio when Su Zhou leaned forward slightly. The camera panned and moved, and her voice was filled with undisguised joy: "Mommy, look, the beach."
"Is this the sea below your zoo? It's so beautiful." Wang Xingyue looked at the scarlet sea and the vast, magnificent sunset. Standing by the sea, it's easy to feel certain emotions.
Cao Cao wrote: "The sun and moon seem to emerge from within it. The starry sky seems to emanate from within it."
Looking at the vast ocean, Wang Xingyue realized that it had been a long time since she had visited the beach.
Su Zhou nodded with a smile: "Yes, it's that area of the sea. I had someone develop this place a bit. You can come and stay here for a while when you have time, you see..."
She took a sip of her fruity drink and walked out of the bar. "There are guesthouses here. You can stay here for a while and relax. Actually... I have some good news to tell you. You'll find out when you get here."
“You all keep telling me not to work too hard, but now I can handle things on my own, so let me say it now. I'm fully capable of doing these things now, so please don't work too hard anymore. Do we have to keep suffering forever?”
“Sure, why not? We’ve been thinking about visiting you soon, and now that you’ve asked, your dad and I will definitely go.” Wang Xingyue paused, then continued teasingly, “Anyway, aren’t your parents kidnapped by you now?”
That's true.
Grandparents and maternal grandparents have long since adapted to the pace of the zoo. They have someone to cook for them, they can even get a small salary, and there are always visitors who talk to them, making them feel that even though they are old, they have achieved their self-worth—a win-win-win situation.
Su Zhou raised her glass of crimson liquor and smiled sweetly: "Let me know when you arrive, and I'll pick out rooms for you right now."
After hanging up her mother's phone, Su Zhou started climbing the steps. The steps were made of stone, some kind of gray rock. Even in a newly built place, the steps showed the marks of time, a quick and artificial aging.
It looks very high-quality, like a seaside town that has existed for thousands of years, timeless and ever-new.
Where there are guesthouses, they all have their names written on them, such as "xx Guesthouse".
The shop names here can actually be modified through the system backend, but Su Zhou is very self-aware and doesn't expect someone who's terrible at naming things to come up with any good names. It's better to keep the default settings, which are at least somewhat interesting.
The guesthouses come in a variety of decorating styles, including Mediterranean, American, French, and Neo-Chinese. The layouts are reasonable, and the rooms offer expansive views, with most rooms boasting unobstructed sea views. Su Zhou's slender fingers slowly traced the old-fashioned landline phone, a relic of the past. However, the landline in each guesthouse room could indeed be used to make calls, specifically to the front desk. Any services needed for the seminar room could be directly addressed to the front desk, who would then assist in resolving the issue.
These buildings by the sea all have a nominal owner, but the actual owner is Su Zhou.
Of course, Su Zhou doesn't need to handle recruitment; the shop owner's role is simply to help solve these problems.
Su Zhou chose a room with the best view, one that might better suit her parents' aesthetic style, for the two of them to live in. As for attribute points, besides using them on herself, she also wanted to use a few on her parents. She had always heard that Old Su suffered from back pain due to social engagements and work, so she would slowly take care of their health after they retired.
With the plans in place, all that's left is to attract tourists here.
That's not a big problem. Chen Xuan has several operators managing accounts for different venues of the zoo. They are all doing very well and can take on advertising jobs from time to time. They can also earn a small amount of income whenever they do a live stream. She uses this money to give back to society.
