Chapter 311 A Bit of Versailles
The villagers don’t know whether Heihe Village will become popular.
All they knew was that they had to continue building the waterwheel to solve the problem of stuffiness in the other half of the inn.
There is also the problem of water accumulation on the road which needs to be solved urgently. After all, the water flowing down from the eaves cannot be allowed to flow everywhere.
Fortunately, the road is paved with bluestone slabs, so it doesn't look too dirty.
The guests were talking excitedly about the Ziyu Inn, but the villagers of Heihe Village had no time to admire their own work and immediately started building a second waterwheel.
Because I was more skilled at it, the second waterwheel was completed by the evening of the next day.
At this point, all the inns in Heihe Village have been transformed into Ziyu Inn.
The guests praised the cooling effect of Ziyu Inn. Many of them had planned to leave, but because of Ziyu Inn, they didn't want to leave anymore.
Next, the villagers solved the drainage problem of the road.
Move the bluestone slabs around the inn away, dig drainage ditches on the ground, and let the accumulated water under the eaves flow back into the river.
Then cover the drainage ditch with bluestone slabs, and then chisel a row of holes in the bluestone slabs facing the eaves, allowing water to flow through the holes into the drainage ditch under the slabs.
After a few days of busy work day and night, the Heihe Village Inn can finally spend the summer safely.
The guests were right. Ziyu Inn really made Heihe Village famous in the Dayu Dynasty and became extremely popular.
With the arrival of midsummer, the weather is getting hotter day by day, and more and more people come to Heihe Village to stay at Ziyu Inn to escape the heat.
There are also many guests who simply want to take a look at this small village that seems to soar into the sky.
The coming and going of guests has driven the development of Xianchuan County. I heard that in just a few months, the town has developed beyond recognition and is much more prosperous and lively than before.
Many teahouses and restaurants have opened on the road from the town to Heihe Village, and the road is no longer deserted.
At Xiao Jiuer's suggestion, people from all over the country not only made breakfast for the guests, but also started preparing midnight snacks.
Actually, people at Daewoo don’t have the habit of eating late-night snacks, but Xiaotuanzi said: “Habits are something that can only be cultivated!”
I can only say that Xiaotuanzi is really talented. Sure enough, after the concept of midnight snacks came into being, guests began to enjoy eating midnight snacks.
In addition, some vendors in the town also came to sell things, and even small vendors from other towns came to do business.
The entrance of Heihe Village is bustling with people every day, with all kinds of hawking sounds intertwined together, making it look like a lively small city.
Who would have thought that it took only a few months for Heihe Village to transform from a remote, desolate and unknown village into a popular and famous small town.
The villagers of Heihe Village earned more money than they could ever earn in their entire lives without any reason, and they were so happy that they laughed out loud in their dreams every night.
Of course, they also have troubles.
Although this worry sounds a bit Versailles.
Now that they are rich, what they want to do most is to build their own big house right away!
But they really don’t have time!
Not only do I have no time to build a house, I even have almost no time to farm!
Although they make a lot of money from the inn, they are still farmers at heart and they cannot abandon the crops in the fields.
So the current situation is that they have to do farm work while taking care of the inn's affairs, and they are so tired every day that their bones are almost falling apart.
As Zhao Xingjian said, no village in the world is busier than Heihe Village today.
There was one more thing he didn't say: there is no village in the world richer than Heihe Village today.
Heihe Village attracts not only tourists from Daewoo, but also tourists from some neighboring countries.
The Dayu Dynasty and its neighboring countries have always exchanged what they have and what they need. This is the rule set by the Regent back then.
Over the years, with the decline of the Daewoo Dynasty, the trade environment on the border has deteriorated a lot.
For example, in Xianchuan County, no foreigners have been seen for a long time.
The rise of Xianchuan County has made some businessmen from neighboring countries smell business opportunities. They have been investigating the town for several days and found that peppers and emerging vegetables that attract tourists are very profitable.
They inquired about the supply channels, but found nothing.
They visited many villages, but did not see any villages growing peppers and emerging vegetables.
There was really no other way, so they went directly to restaurants to purchase goods, but every restaurant said that they did not have enough ingredients and did not have any to sell.
Finally, they found out about Heihe Village.
Before the inn was built, the villagers would go to bed yawning as soon as it got dark to save money on lamp oil.
After opening the inn, the villagers found that they became more energetic as the night went on, in order to earn money from the guests.
There is a gentle breeze in the mountain village on a summer night. There is no trace of heat at the entrance of the village under the starry sky. The villagers light mugwort to drive away mosquitoes.
Under the bright moonlight, children were playing games on the cobblestone road, chasing each other and laughing.
The guests finished their dinner before dark and were now enjoying drinks and a late-night snack.
In the kitchen, the women of Heihe Village washed all the dishes, replaced the large pot with water, and boiled water for the guests to wash.
"Waiter, take your order!"
A voice with an exotic accent sounded, and everyone looked sideways, only to see a few men in exotic clothing sitting at the outermost table.
The most eye-catching thing is their hairstyle. Their heads are shaved bald, leaving only a short and small braid in the middle, which looks inexplicably funny.
"It's Yue Muren." People in the capital have seen the world and can tell it at a glance.
"Yuemu Country borders Chiyue Country, but not Dayu. I didn't expect that people from Yuemu Country would come to Heihe Village."
Ye Yanping walked over.
"Sir, we only have midnight snacks now. You can buy them over there."
Midnight snacks are sold in the surrounding area and have nothing to do with Heihe Village.
"Pah!" The Yuemu man threw a silver ingot onto the table. "We're hungry! We don't want a midnight snack! Prepare some wine, meat, and rice for us! We want to try some of your food!"
Ye Yanping glanced at the kitchen. All the big pots were boiling water, so it was impossible to cook for all these people again.
"Sir, how about trying our hot pot? It has both meat and vegetables."
To eat hot pot, just bring a copper stove.
"We've already had hot pot in town!" The man threw another ingot of silver onto the table. "No matter what method you use, we must have a meal!"
"Hey! Those wooden men of the past few months! Are you being reasonable?"
"They've already said they're closing up shop and the food is sold out! What are you looking for?"
The other guests couldn't bear it anymore.
"How dare you show off two ingots of silver? Go back to your tiny country and don't come to Dayu to make a name for yourself!"
