Although Jiang Yue donated money, she didn't sit idle. She helped the aunt next door clean up the alleys near her house. This big clean-up lasted for about a week, and finally the roads in the whole village were cleared. After that, the staff came and began to carry out detailed topographic surveys and geological surveys to determine the route, slope, and curves, and began to draw up detailed construction drawings and technical specifications.
About half a month later, some building materials began to arrive. By then, Jiang Yue had already bought the neighboring yard. The formalities were just completed yesterday. Today, Jiang Yue went in to take a look and found that there was still a lot of clutter inside. She asked the original owner and found that they didn't want it anymore. Jiang Yue hired a few people to start cleaning it up.
Some people wanted the items inside, but Jiang Yue didn't care; she just wanted to take them home. She had originally planned to use a machine to dismantle them, but in the end, it wasn't needed at all. The wood that was dismantled was taken home by people to burn for fuel, but the stones were kept because they would be useful later.
When the road construction began, there was an opportunity to use large machinery, so Jiang Yue had the puppets disguised as a construction team come and repair the house. Since the machinery wasn't needed, they could also help repair the road. After half a year, the road in the village was open to vehicles, and Jiang Yue was able to move into her new home.
On the day the road opened, the village held a special ceremony, bought a few strings of firecrackers and set them off. Because they had some extra money, the village committee renovated the road and also erected a monument to merit. Jiang Yue's name was listed first because she had donated the most.
Of course, her new home was also bustling with activity. Because it was so well-decorated, visitors flocked to see it every day. It took half a month for the hype to die down a bit. Everyone said that they wanted to build their own houses like hers, just like in the TV dramas. Of course, some people asked how much it cost, but Jiang Yue just laughed it off to avoid people thinking she was showing off.
The new house was originally Jiang Yue's own home, while her neighbor's house was turned into a bed and breakfast. Because Jiang Yue was too lazy to host guests every day, the minimum rental period was half a month. Whether anyone would actually rent it was another matter. As long as it made sense on the surface and people didn't think she was neglecting her duties, that was fine.
As for where her customers come from, those WeChat official accounts and Weibo accounts aren't just sitting around doing nothing; they've been writing advertorials for a while. Besides these, she also created her own official website, which makes it easier for others to make reservations and also makes her seem much more legitimate.
There are still some details to be finalized before the opening. She hasn't decided on the price yet, and there's no restaurant in the village, so she might have to provide meals every day. After thinking about it, she bought two refrigerators so that if someone comes and knows how to cook, they can cook for themselves. The main focus is on the experience.
In the following days, Jiang Yue prepared several sets of bedding and also prepared the laundry room that had been set up in advance, which contained three washing machines, enough for the three rooms.
The price is set, and now there's one last thing to do: we need a car. I need it for my own travels, and also to provide a pick-up service for guests who have to travel a long way to get here. Otherwise, they might not want to come halfway through their journey.
As for what to buy, she'll decide when she gets to the city. In principle, she'll buy whichever store she sees first, since she'll have to modify it herself anyway. If circumstances allowed, she'd like to build one herself.
Having made up her mind, Jiang Yue went to the city the next day. After arriving, she randomly picked up a taxi and asked the driver to recommend a place. As a result, she bought a Haval H6. After staying in the city for a few days to complete the formalities, Jiang Yue drove her new car home.
After arriving in the county town, she also bought a bunch of ingredients. There really wasn't much to sell in the village. In this peaceful world, Jiang Yue didn't need the Wizard Tower. Growing vegetables consumed too much magic power, so she bought what she could with money.
After returning home, the topic of Jiang Yue buying a car became a new subject of conversation among the onlookers. Jiang Yue didn't have time to care about that, because all three of her rooms were booked. The largest suite was booked by a family of four, and the two smaller rooms were also reserved. With only a little over a month until the Chinese New Year, Jiang Yue had previously thought that there was no chance for her to buy a car this year.
Then I called each person to contact them. The family that booked the suite didn't need airport pickup because they were on a self-driving tour. The other two people were arriving by plane and train respectively, but at different times, so it would be better to avoid any trouble.
Since there were two girls, Jiang Yue told them over the phone that the driver was male, and also sent them a photo of the puppet and the license plate number so they wouldn't get into the wrong car. She also created a WeChat group so they could communicate if there were any problems.
The family of four arrived the next day. The price of this apartment was similar to that of a hotel, but the experience was much better. After picking them up at the village entrance, Jiang Yue led the way in her small tricycle. The newly repaired road was very easy to travel on, and they arrived directly at the parking lot near their home.
This parking lot is just a leveled wasteland, paved with leftover cement from building. It can hold up to four cars. After parking, Jiang Yue led her family into the yard. She thought the man was handsome, the woman was beautiful, and the two children were not bad either. This family was all good-looking.
Upon reaching the entrance, they saw a mechanical combination lock installed on the door. Jiang Yue pointed to the lock and explained, "This is a combination lock. The combination is 1234, which is very simple. If no one is home, just close the door."
After entering the courtyard, they were asked to put their luggage inside. The courtyard was now very beautiful, all thanks to Jiang Yue's meticulous design. Not only her own courtyard, but Jiang Yue had also made minor adjustments to the scenery of the village to make it look more harmonious. Jiang Yue had sown flower seeds in the nearby wasteland and along the roadside, and now the flower fields were incredibly beautiful.
"This is the kitchen. There are three stoves inside, one for each family. Next to it is a sterilizer with bowls and chopsticks, and here is a refrigerator with numbers on it. Each room is equipped with one refrigerator."
"You can buy vegetables and meat at the village supermarket, or you can buy them directly from other villagers. They are all picked from the fields by the villagers themselves, so they are very fresh."
"Next to it is the restaurant, and this is the laundry room. Each room is equipped with a washing machine, so I won't go into details."
After the basic facilities were explained, the group returned to the courtyard. At this point, the male host asked, "Boss, are you sure this doesn't include food and lodging?"
"It's not covered. If you really can't cook, you can ask the aunties in the village to help you. If you're too embarrassed to ask, you can come to me and I'll help you make some connections."
"Are there really no restaurants in the village?"
"No, there's only a small supermarket, but it's very close to the county town. If you have a car, you can go shopping there. You've also seen the refrigerator provided in the courtyard; it's very spacious and can hold a lot of things. I estimate that going there once or twice every two weeks will be enough."
What about people without cars?
“There is a shuttle bus to the county town every day. You can contact me if there is an emergency.”
