In the blink of an eye, it was May Day, the busiest time of the year in the market town. A guest came to the Zhou residence, surprising Zhou Xiang. "Song Sui?"
The man in front of me has entered middle age, and his temperament is becoming increasingly cold and stern, no longer as young as he used to be.
"Miss Zhou," Song Sui smiled, the coldness in his eyes disappearing, "I'm here to ask for help, Miss Zhou."
"Huh?" Zhou Xiang was surprised. The construction company led by Song Sui and his father's real estate company were the two big money bags in Huai County. Was there anything else that needed her help?
"It's like this," seeing Zhou Xiang's confusion, Song Sui explained, "I've been transferred to the Tourism Bureau. Miss Zhou's Xishan Health Park has been nominated by the County Tourism Bureau as a new benchmark for Huai County's tourism culture. The Municipal Tourism Bureau has approved it and is encouraging Huai County to develop more tourism. Huai County is a water town and was once an important hub for passenger and freight transportation during the Republic of China."
As soon as Song Sui said this, Zhou Xiang guessed the reason and asked with a smile, "Does your father feel like he's shooting himself in the foot?"
"No," Song Sui shook his head. "He was very happy to say that Huai County's tourism industry would develop under my leadership. In the past month, I've almost gone bald."
Since the county and Manager Song have made such big changes for Xishan, she should help Huai County and Manager Song!
"When mentioning Huai County, the Huai River is the first thing that comes to mind. Older people always reminisce about the bustling ferry terminal of their time. Middle-aged people remember the sweet days of buying popsicles and candy popcorn balls on the streets near the ferry terminal as children. Young people, at most, often hear the word 'ferry terminal' in their grandparents' nagging, but nothing else comes to mind, let alone children."
It briefly describes the impressions of the Huai River by four generations of people, old, middle-aged, young and children. Zhou Xiang seemed to see himself, when he could only walk, being taken to the Huai River by his cousins who were carrying water, and seeing the few coolies carrying bags and loads back and forth between the warehouse and the dock.
"Song Sui, if you want to utilize the Huai River, you have to restore the bustling scene of the ship dock in the past. The dock, warehouse and ship don't need to be completely restored to their ancient state. After all, the conditions were too poor back then. Reminiscing about the past is the favorite of the elderly, but the middle-aged and young people are the main consumers.
Just build it like the large ship docks in movies and TV shows, preferably a little higher than the summer water level, or you can build a liftable dock that rises and falls according to the water level.
There are stalls on both sides of the slope road from the pier to the riverbank, offering inducements first and then charging fees.
As for the steamship, it was naturally a beautiful passenger ship that charged a fee to cruise on the Huai River.
The west bank of the river can also be modified according to the plan of the Huai River cruise. Even if it is just to plant some ornamental willow trees, it will be more beautiful than the swamp where not much rice can be grown. "
Song Sui lowered his head and wrote down Zhou Xiang's suggestions in his notebook. Seeing that she had stopped talking, he raised his head and urged, "Anything else?"
"Can't you use your brain? Since everyone knows that the docks were the busiest during the Republican era, why don't you do what's shown on TV and have some male and female models wearing Republican-era clothing walk the runway?"
"Yes, yes, yes," Song Sui nodded repeatedly, his hands and mouth not stopping, "What else?"
"That's all," Zhou Xiang said unhappily. "I just told you to use your brain. Huai County's tourism only has water as a key factor, so the pier is Huai County's unique landscape."
Speaking of water, something suddenly popped up in Zhou Xiang's mind. "Song Sui, is there a Peach Blossom Mountain in Sanpu, a small town on the border of Huai County and Zhucheng? It's said there's a small Peach Blossom Temple on it?"
"Yes! What's wrong?" Song Sui raised his head and asked in confusion.
Zhou Xiang remembered that in her previous life, when she was in a bridge tunnel, one day, there were a few young people who had made it to the capital by brute force. They were sitting on the curb and chatting while eating steamed buns. Because her hometown accent made her feel familiar, she paid attention to their conversation.
It turns out that a natural cave was discovered at the foot of Taohua Mountain in Sanpu, which borders Zhucheng. Before it was discovered, this cave was just an underground river at the bottom of the mountain. It was accidentally discovered by a man who was planning to go to Taohua Temple to pray for romantic luck.
After the mountains at both ends of the underground river were connected, a natural underground water cave appeared. The cave is only two kilometers long and 20 meters wide. Stalactites of various shapes are hanging in the air on the top of the cave. Sanpu soon became the richest town in the vicinity because of this peach blossom water cave.
Such a small attraction is not worth mentioning in the capital city with numerous scenic spots and historical sites. When these young people talked about this, they thought that the young man who discovered the underground river was too funny. He actually regarded Taohua Temple, which was named after the mountain, as a temple for praying for marriage. Moreover, Sanpu was enclosed by Zhucheng, and Taohua Water Cave became a tourist attraction in Zhucheng City.
"Ahem," Zhou Xiang coughed lightly and started to deceive people. "You can't just focus on Huai County. You should also make use of the affiliated towns. For example, Taohua Temple is small, but it is on the side of Huaizhu Highway.
There are several towns and villages between Sanpu and the county seat. If there were a few more historical buildings like Taohua Temple, or even an ancient well with some legendary inscriptions, it would not only boost the tourism potential of Huai County, but also directly drive the prosperity of the entire southern section of Huai County.
Song Sui today is no longer the Song Sui of twenty years ago. "Miss Zhou, please tell me the truth."
"The truth is..." Since he already had the initiative, he absolutely could not let Zhucheng take it away. "I remember hearing an old man say that there was something strange at the foot of Taohua Mountain. It seemed that a flood that happened once in a hundred years several decades ago circulated at the foot of Taohua Mountain for two days and then subsided. Do you want to go check it out?"
If it's a unique place, it could be developed into a small tourist attraction on the Huaizhu Highway. On the way from Sanpu, you can also explore the ancient buildings with legends, just like the Wei Family Tunnel. It's difficult for a single branch to stand out. Wouldn't that be mutually beneficial with Yuhu Park?"
"Okay!" Song Sui quickly put away the tablet. "I'll go back and make arrangements. Thank you, Miss Zhou, for your tips and suggestions."
After sending Song Sui away, Zhou Xiang felt relieved. This time, they were a few steps ahead of Zhucheng. Shouldn't the third shop be occupied? Besides, Huai County is developing tourism now, so no matter what excuse Zhucheng uses, it's unreasonable.
Children's Day is a great day for Ren Qing.
Ren Qing had been mourning for her master for three years, and Xiao Wang finally saw the light at the end of the tunnel.
In mid-May, Ren Hui brought his family to the town. People from the Wang family also came. Since they couldn't stay in the warehouse building, some of them moved into the villa behind the clinic.
A few days before the wedding, Ren Qing came to Zhou's house, and Zhou Xiangxiao asked her how she had time to come.
Ren Qing had a hesitant look on his face, "Think about it, sister, I suddenly regret it."
"What are you regretting?" Zhou Xiang had never been counseled on pre-marital depression and was very afraid that Ren Qing would do the same to her.
"I regret agreeing to get married," Ren Qing's face was full of distress. Before Zhou Xiang could continue to ask, she poured out everything. "Not to mention the complicated details of the wedding, nor my aunt's greed when she saw the villa, the attitude of the Wang family's parents is unbearable."
