…
The Year of the Seed is approaching, and the countdown has begun.
Two more days!
Winter temperatures have surprisingly started to rise.
As dawn breaks and the first rays of sunlight slant across the Miao villages, while the Miao people prepare for the Miao New Year—
Wave after wave of non-Miao people entered Miao territory, following the clean cement road.
People came and went in an endless stream.
Along the way--
Every so often, Miao girls dressed in their finest attire would lead the way and provide introductions.
There were also Miao men with Miao knives at their waists maintaining order.
Starting today, all vehicles entering the Miao village will be exempt from fees. The Miao people will provide a designated area for vehicles to enter, provided they are clean.
However, there is one rule: no person or vehicle may bring dangerous goods into the area.
otherwise--
Once discovered, they should be expelled immediately.
Of course, if they are found during inspections at the cement intersection and county road, there is a place to store them, and non-Miao people can pick them up themselves when they leave.
Along the 15-16 kilometer cement road from the Blue Miao Daobei Village to the Red Miao Quedong Village, people are constantly on the move.
According to incomplete statistics, as of this morning, more than 10,000 non-Miao people have entered the Miao village.
And it is still increasing.
This time, the Miao people are facing the challenge of hosting them.
However, the group of students from the Miao Middle School returned, especially those in high school. They used their knowledge, combined with the experience of their uncles and brothers, to manage the jobs they were given perfectly.
It was only nine o'clock in the morning, and the sun was rising fiery red in the east. Loudspeakers had been installed along the cement roads in the Miao village.
Especially when we reached the mountainside opposite Quedongzhai, they set up a screen and installed a high-quality sound system.
Several songs were playing continuously from the speakers.
The song was led by a young girl with a child's voice, and also included the voice of a Miao man.
It was mostly choral singing, and it was in the Miao language.
They sang "I'm waiting for you in the Miao village."
The lyrics roughly translate to: I'm waiting for you in Miao territory, waiting for us to meet.
And there's also the song "Miao Region, My Beloved Hometown".
Lyrics (roughly): Friends from afar, welcome to my Miao region! We warmly welcome you!
Life in Miao areas is beautiful, and the sacred fruits of Miao areas are sweet.
…
The entire Miao region was enveloped in a joyful atmosphere.
The welcoming music is standard, and the girls, dressed in their finest attire, set out twelve courses of welcoming wine—they are the most beautiful.
The twelve rounds of welcoming wine begin directly from the mountainside opposite Que Dong Village.
Non-Miao people entering, whether wealthy merchants or ordinary citizens, are greeted with a welcoming toast.
Two words: Don't be arrogant! Keep a low profile!
Because the village chiefs had already given instructions, no alcohol would be served this time.
If you can drink, then drink; if you can't, just offer a small token of appreciation.
However, the Miao people's custom of offering wine at the gate remains unchanged. When drinking the wine, all guests must never, ever reach out to accept the cow horn from the pretty girls who are feeding them wine.
Those who touch it receive a cow horn and must drink it all.
Each of the welcoming wine stations was very lively.
The Lusheng music was almost nonstop, and the girls in their finest attire, while serving drinks to the guests, also tapped the ox horns with their chopsticks.
Those who think they have a high alcohol tolerance, or who believe Miao rice wine has a low alcohol content, come on!
I hope you can beat the game!
Ha ha--
Many non-Miao people from other places were forced to drink alcohol this time, even though the Miao people didn't force them to.
How many wealthy businessmen have fallen victim to Miao rice wine? The rice wine is only 20 or 30 degrees alcohol, and they don't know how they got drunk so quickly.
In the Miao village, Yun Kai, the head of the Tianfeng Public Security Bureau, personally took charge, but he found that the Miao people were so cooperative that the public security bureau had no role to play.
but--
Everyone who entered the Miao village was amazed by the scale of the Miao people's visit.
There are already tens of thousands of people here before the Miao New Year has even started!
Many people want to experience the Miao culture, so they naturally set their sights on the Miao costumes.
Shengtang had already thought of this, so she had each village prepare some in advance.
It's not a gift, it's a sale.
We can sell them all in one place and then split the profits.
In any case, the Miao people put up banners this year that read: "Welcome to our Miao region and celebrate the Miao New Year with us."
This statement was published in the newspaper by Shengtang's newly established branch in Lincheng.
So, after receiving a warm welcome and hospitality from the Miao people, the non-Miao visitors went directly into the village to make glutinous rice cakes and sausages with the Miao aunties.
The Miao villages were bustling with activity.
The Miao region is exceptionally joyous! But the closer it gets to the Miao New Year, the more people there are.
It seems that the number of non-Miao people in each Miao village is nearing saturation.
And on the county government side, there's that newly established department last year! Culture and Tourism --
It played a huge role this time.
Tianfeng became the focus of attention in eastern Guizhou.
The county government was busy with this matter, because Tan County had received many wealthy merchants.
The city wasn't idle either, just not as busy as the Tianfeng Prefecture government.
Meanwhile, in the provincial capital, Lincheng, I've been seeing all sorts of preparations made by the Miao people for the past two days.
Newspapers were distributed, and anyone with extra money wanted to go to eastern Guizhou during the New Year's Day holiday.
I want to see the Miao New Year with my own eyes, and see if it's really as described in the newspapers.
But those in the business community are keeping a close eye on the moves of Tangtang Capital.
Rumors have circulated that Tangtang Capital is going to the Miao region in eastern Guizhou.
As soon as the top executives of Tangtang Capital make a move, they will immediately follow in their cars, determined to create a scene.
The key point is that going to Miao territory also allows you to build relationships with the general manager of Tangtang Capital and the directors of various investment departments.
After all, it's a huge sum of four billion yuan; who wouldn't want to attract some investment?
