Chapter 916 Another Door Opened
Yang Xi was sure that she would definitely win this battle.
Her vision for projects had never been wrong.
That was true, but Yang Xi forgot that her vision for investment had never been wrong, but she had never won when she ran into Sang Yian. The
15 ancient amusement parks covered many of the country's economically developed first-tier cities, with a total investment of 200 million. Although this was not comparable to Sang Yian's Royal Garden, for an emerging investment company, this investment amount was not small.
Yang Xi's goal was to replace the Royal Garden and Sang Yian, so that her ancient amusement park would stand out and become the most profitable one in the industry.
But the result is that the Royal Garden is still very popular. Even though "Jiang Shan" has finished airing, tickets for the Royal Garden are still in high demand.
And her amusement parks are indeed opening one after another. The sales in the first week of opening are quite good. However, for some reason, the business is not doing well after a while.
The financial statements are getting uglier every month.
Yang Xi thought of many ways, but none of them worked.
This ancient amusement park seems to have encountered some kind of curse, one after another, each one is like this.
Of course, it’s not that the financial situation of these stores is so bad that they have started to make losses. No, they haven’t.
The amusement parks are not making losses yet. At most, the profits are not high.
Basically, it’s just a little better than playing for free.
The Royal Garden has started to organize some Dragon Boat Festival theme activities, such as how did the ancients celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival?
Celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival with the ancients.
The most complete Dragon Boat Festival customs.
Zongzi and realgar wine are standard, and
the Royal Garden even arranged dragon boat racing! There are also various performances.
Look, it has attracted a large number of tourists again.
Basically, those who are quick and have time have taken advantage of the holidays to go to the Royal Garden.
The Royal Garden is really full every day, but with so many people, the tourists' experience is still very good.
It is not crowded, and Sang Yian and Anle will not let the Royal Garden become a crowded place for dumplings.
This theme activity lasted for a month.
This flow of visitors is not just eye-catching, and the monthly turnover is 50 million!
When this number came out, it shocked the entire industry.
What else could they say?
Sang Yian is definitely a business genius!
Otherwise, there is no way to explain this series of events.
And Sang Yian, who is regarded as a genius by everyone, feels that something seems to be wrong.
Sang Yian was awakened by a loud noise on the first floor.
That's right, because the life gate is here, Sang Yian can only move his home upstairs.
This time the small supermarket is not only expanded, but also has a most important task, which is to renovate her living area separately, that is, it must be separated from the small supermarket, but not too far away from the life gate.
In the end, she still lived upstairs, but she added a third floor directly on top of the second floor, and also expanded her office area.
With this operation, Sang Yian's basic requirements were finally met.
Her bedroom, study, tea room and other areas with high daily utilization are still on the second floor.
That night, after Sang Yian repeatedly confirmed with the little parrot that there would be no guests tonight, she followed her biological clock and lay down on the bed at 10 o'clock and fell asleep.
At this time, the market in the royal garden has not ended yet!
The market and the taverns around the lake are still brightly lit, and tourists are reveling and taking pictures, and they are all immersed in a sea of joy.
Our boss Sang, who is used to keeping healthy, has already fallen asleep.
Perhaps the previous experience of sudden death was too terrifying, so even though Sang Yian's bones have undergone a qualitative change from the most fundamental level, plus she practices martial arts and exercises, her physical fitness is very good. In her current state, she can easily beat a platoon by herself, but she still goes to bed early and gets up early, and insists on morning exercises.
Staying up late will lead to sudden death, and this principle is deeply engraved in her mind.
Basically, as long as there is no unexpected situation, her biological clock is very accurate!
But at the same time, her alertness is also very high.
People who practice martial arts have extremely sharp five senses. When an unknown sound was heard on the first floor, Sang Yian, who had fallen into a deep sleep, immediately opened his eyes and sat up directly from the bed.
She was still wearing the familiar pink flip-flops, and she also grabbed a beige long windbreaker from the coat rack, putting it on while going downstairs.
She walked to the wooden door at the entrance of the stairs, picked up a wooden stick as thick as a thumb in one hand, held the door handle with the other hand, and pushed the door open.
Before Sang Yian could finish his question, he was shocked by the scene in front of him.
The Gate of Life flashed with a dazzling red light, as red as blood, so red that it was thrilling and creepy.
Sang Yian's hands holding the wooden stick tightened their consciousness. In the past two years, the Gate of Life has never seen such a scene.
Before, the Gate of Life was flashing with colorful light, and customers from other worlds entered the small supermarket through this colorful door.
But what's going on with this blood-red Gate of Life in front of him?
"Lao Men? What's going on? Is this your special skill after repairing your original body?" Sang Yian asked.
However, no one responded to Sang Yian's words.
This shouldn't be!
Even if Lao Men is playful, he is still very reliable when it comes to serious matters!
Especially when it comes to such an important matter as trading, Lao Men even attaches more importance to it than she does. After all, it can accumulate energy through trading. With energy, it can reach more and farther planes, open up connection channels, and find the way home.
He will not fail to reply!
Sang Yian waited seriously and approached the life gate carefully.
Only then did they discover that there was a bloodstain on the ground. Following the bloodstain, they saw an elderly man wearing patched clothes with dirt on them and a smell of gunpowder on his body. A
white bandage was wrapped around his forehead, and blood was still seeping out.
What happened?
Shooting?
The old man's clothes seemed to be from the Republic of China period. Was it a war?
Sang Yian's face was tense. Everything was her guess, but she remembered one thing very clearly. The old man said that in the same world and the same timeline, it cannot go back to the past to open a trading channel. To put it bluntly
, it cannot change the facts that exist in this world, it cannot change history, it can only act on the present.
It cannot go back to the ancient times, the Republic of China, modern times, etc. in the present world.
It can only connect to the world of other dimensions.
But what was going on now?
She was quick to discover the medal in the old man's jacket pocket. It was a party medal!
Was there something wrong with the old man, or was there something unexpected? Or was this old man from a dimension with a history very similar to their world?
In the short distance between the stairs and the shelves, all the possibilities went through Sang Yian's mind. No matter what it was, she had to save people first!
Sang Yian had learned the technique of treating wounds from Lao Luo (a Western doctor in the clinic). She could do simple treatments such as disinfection and bandaging quickly and well.
Old man Zhang was confused. He was just an ordinary farmer in Zhangjiabao. He had been farming for his whole life. When he was a child, he secretly stood outside the private school. He knew a few words. When he was young, he worked in the shop in the city with his boss.
If it weren't for the sudden war, he would have continued to work in the shop, married a wife, and had a child.
However, the Japanese army came.
Everything changed.
The boss's shop was occupied, and the boss died in the bombing of the Japanese army. He returned to Zhangjiabao, but he still couldn't rest.
The burning and looting of the Japanese army has become their shadow.
The nearby villages have the same experience as Zhangjiabao. There are always people being captured and people dying for no reason.
Life was unbearable, and more and more people secretly united to resist these evil Japanese troops.
No matter men or women, old or young, they all hated these bandits!
Facts have proved that the power of one person is small, but it is still very powerful when they are united. It doesn't matter if they
don't have weapons. A hoe, a sickle, a kitchen knife, and even themselves can become weapons to protect their homes.
As long as they have the determination to die and the belief to protect their families, they can overcome any difficulties!
In this way, the self-defense forces of several villages finally found an organization and were incorporated into the regular army. They were able to receive formal training and learn how to better protect their families. At the same time, it was clearer that they rose up in resistance not only for their own families behind them, but also for tens of millions of compatriots like them!
But even after becoming a regular army, the weapons they could use were still limited.
It was not easy for three people to use a Hanyang rifle.
However, this situation was much better than before!
They never faced the enemy head-on. Zhangjiabao was all forests and mountains. The villagers who had lived here since childhood were very familiar with the surrounding terrain. Fighting in the forests, even if they couldn't kill a few devils, they had a greater chance of survival.
A year passed like this, and the Japanese army kept a close eye on them.
The Japanese army sent out all the local soldiers to encircle and annihilate this team, wanting to get a top-secret message, and the battle was very fierce.
From the establishment of this team to its incorporation into the regular army, and then to the present, people have always sacrificed, and people have always joined.
Everyone has never wavered in their determination to resist and fight!
They firmly believe that they will win!
With such confidence, they have survived one desperate situation after another.
Without weapons, they robbed the Japanese army;
lacking medicine, they used folk methods and just stood firm;
without food, they ate wild vegetables, wild fruits, and grass roots;
as long as they can survive, there is hope!
Old Man Zhang has always thought so.
But this time, he really felt that he seemed to have reached a desperate situation.
They have been surrounded for 7 days. The food has been eaten up long ago. There is little ammunition left. Almost everyone is injured. However, they have no medicine and bandages.
They have not yet delivered this top-secret message. As long as one person can leave alive, they will have a chance to deliver the message.
Even if everyone sacrifices, they must send the courier away.
Old man Zhang has been rushing to the front. He is already 50 years old this year. Even if he dies in battle, he has earned it!
As long as those young people can survive, they can still fight in the future!
After resisting another wave of attacks, Old man Zhang was injured in the head by the enemy's grenade. He thought he was going to die soon, but the message had not been delivered yet, and he was unwilling to give up!
He wanted to live, even if it meant sacrifice, he would send the courier out before sacrificing!
When he opened his eyes again, he saw a bright light.
Sang Yian explained the situation very skillfully, and it only took him 5 minutes to make Old Man Zhang believe that he was not dead yet, and this was not his dream, but a chance to live given to him by God!
Then the porridge was fed to his mouth.
Being surrounded for 7 days, Old Man Zhang was also hungry for 7 days.
They didn't have much food to begin with, and they ate frugally every day, and they couldn't eat enough. Now that they smelled the fragrance of rice, how could they resist? They immediately picked up the bowl and drank the porridge.
The fragrance of rice in his mouth made Old Man Zhang believe Sang Yian's explanation a little more.
An old man over 50 has his own wisdom in life.
This is a shop, he can buy the goods in the shop!
Zhang Laohan let down his guard a little. He was just an old farmer and a soldier, penniless. Even if the other party came for top-secret information, it would be useless.
He knew nothing.
Only the courier knew the specific content of the message.
Sang Yian took the opportunity to inquire about Old Man Zhang's situation. When she heard the beginning of 1944, her heart skipped a beat.
She took out her mobile phone and began to search for Zhangjiabao that Old Man Zhang mentioned. Many results popped up, but none of them matched what Old Man Zhang had said.
Sang Yian's pounding heart was not only not calmed down, but beat even faster.
That period of history was so cruel. In that dark age, when information was not well developed, the information that could be preserved was pitifully small.
In that long 8-year war, there were countless unsung heroes like Old Man Zhang, and countless villages like Zhangjiabao, struggling to survive under the enemy's brutal artillery fire.
It was the strenuous resistance, fearless fighting, bloodshed, and sacrifice of these unknown heroes that drove away the invaders and gave them the wonderful life they have today.
Sang Yian has great respect for these predecessors. No matter why they were able to pass through the gate of life and enter the small supermarket, since Old Man Zhang came in, she would trade with him!
"Uncle Zhang, I can provide food and medicine here. What else do you need besides these?"
Old Man Zhang swallowed a big bowl of porridge. When he heard Sang Yian's words, his cloudy eyes suddenly lit up, "Guns, shells."
Sang Yian: "..."
This is too hardcore, she really doesn't have it here.
In fact, Da Mi originally wanted to give her two hot weapons to play with. In the end times, these things can be bought with crystal cores, but how dare Sang Yian accept them?
She refused very firmly.
Otherwise, once she found out, she would be in jail!
"Uncle Zhang, why don't you think of something else?"
Old man Zhang was still thinking, when suddenly, the red light of the life gate that was originally shining brightly began to fade!
Could the passage be closed?
