After the opening ceremony, the officials headed by Shao Gaoguan naturally could not leave immediately. They wanted to be the first to appreciate this leisure park that cost more than 4 billion yuan.
As the host, Yang Jing naturally had to accompany them throughout the trip. And as the project manager, Zhang Haikui was the most familiar with the place, so he naturally had to accompany them and serve as a guide.
If you want to visit this leisure park, taking a boat is the best choice, because the artificial river opened up in the leisure park connects all the best scenic spots in the leisure park, and by taking a boat, you can also experience the beauty of the small bridges and flowing water in the Jiangnan water town.
In the leisure park, there are pedal boats that can only take two people, medium-sized boats that can take seven or eight people, and large cruise ships that can take more than 20 people. There are many leaders here today, so everyone can only take the large cruise ship.
Two large cruise ships carrying a group of leaders moved slowly along the winding river, while Zhang Haikui introduced every landscape here to the main leaders.
Transplanted weeping willows are planted on both sides of the river. It is early spring now and these weeping willows have just sprouted. Although they are still a little bleak, they are full of vigorous vitality. And from the boat, you can also see the scenery in the distance through the leafless weeping willows.
God was particularly kind today. Although the temperature was only around ten degrees, there was no wind at all and the sun was very strong, so sitting on the boat, looking at the scenery and basking in the sun, I felt a little tipsy.
More than ten minutes later, the cruise ship stopped at the southwest corner of the leisure park. This is the only place in the leisure park that charges admission, the amusement park.
At this time, the playground has become a paradise for children. Countless children, both big and small, accompanied by their parents and under the maintenance of order by security personnel, are queuing up in an orderly manner to play. Some children who have already sat on the equipment are laughing all over the floor.
"Hey kid, why did you think of building such an amusement park here? This amusement park seems to be inconsistent with the style of the Grand Canal Leisure Park." Shao Gaoguan was sitting next to Yang Jing. Seeing this scene full of joy and childlike fun, he couldn't help but ask Yang Jing in a low voice.
Yang Jing whispered: "Shao Gaoguan..."
Shao Mingzhong waved his hand and said, "Call me Uncle Shao. Lao Bai and I have a special relationship. Calling me Shao Gaoguan makes our relationship awkward."
Yang Jing nodded and said, "Uncle Shao, in fact, building such an amusement park here is mainly for the consideration of our local people. In our Tianqu, there are not many public places for people to play, especially in Hexi, there is no park or square for people to play, so I built such a leisure park at the beginning. As for the amusement park for children, there is only one in our entire Tianqu urban area, and it is still very small, so I was thinking at the beginning, since a leisure park for adults has been built, why not build a park for children to play? After all, children are our future. I also came from that time, and I know how helpless it is for children to have no park to play well. So, I built such an amusement park in the corner of the leisure park. Anyway, the area of the entire leisure park is large enough, and the construction of such an amusement park will not have much impact on the entire leisure park."
Shao Mingzhong smiled and nodded, obviously satisfied with Yang Jing's answer. However, he still pointed to the ticket office not far away and asked, "Why, this amusement park is not free?"
"Well, it's not free. Actually, I wanted to make it free at the beginning, but many people advised me not to do so. Because if an amusement park like this is completely free, it will cause a lot of unnecessary trouble. For example, it will make many tourists think that they can monopolize the amusement resources for a long time, which will easily lead to a situation where those who arrive first have endless fun, while those who come later have nothing to play. On the contrary, by charging a fee, it is very good to limit the occurrence of this situation, so I charged a fee."
After a pause, Yang Jing continued to explain: "In fact, the fee is not high, it is just a maintenance cost. The price here is more than 70% lower than that of ordinary amusement parks, so more children can play these amusement facilities."
Shao Mingzhong nodded with satisfaction, stood here and watched the happy children for a while, then took the lead and returned to the boat again. The cruise ship continued to move along the river.
After about another twenty minutes, the cruise ship arrived at the last attraction in the leisure park, which was also the one that Yang Jing spent the most time visiting - the Grand Canal Museum.
