"Don't be in a hurry." Zhu Zhiyuan, the reborn old ghost, saw clearly and said with a smile: "Drink a glass of wine first, eat two chopsticks of food, be calm, and I will tell you slowly."
After Zhao Chang'ao drank a glass of wine, Zhu Zhiyuan spoke.
"Have you heard about the Taoxi Dam being built in Taoxi, Pan County next door?"
In the Internet age, a piece of news can spread across the Pacific Ocean in half a minute. Zhu Zhiyuan estimated that the news that Taoxi Town was going to build the Taoxi Dam should have spread here.
Sure enough, Mo Wen and others nodded.
"Taoxi Dam is invested by Luhuitou Company. You must have heard about it, right?" Zhu Zhiyuan asked with a smile.
"I heard it." Mo Wen nodded: "The strength of Luhuitou Company is really strong. We invested tens of millions here, and Taoxi invested another 100 million. I also heard that their company invested ten million in Dongcheng. 100 million, ready to build a house."
"It's not about investing one billion to build a house." Hu Liang shook his head: "One billion is for buying land. I heard that they have to invest five billion to build a house."
"Five billion, tut." Lu Fang and Zhao Chang'ao tutted repeatedly. Although they said they were mayors, but the mayors of the mountains and valleys, to be honest, they have never seen much of the world. Five billion, right? For them, it is really an astronomical figure.
However, among their various discussions and admirations, there was actually a hidden saying that was not spoken out. Forget about investing in Dongcheng, why invest in Taoxi? That is Pan County, and Pan County belongs to Guolin. Isn’t this an advantage for outsiders? ? There is so much money, you can invest everywhere in Hushan.
They would not say this in front of Zhu Zhiyuan.
Now Zhu Zhiyuan’s nickname below is: Prince Zhu Third.
The third prince Zhu was the third prince of Emperor Chongzhen. He rebelled against the Qing Dynasty and restored the Ming Dynasty. Countless people took up the banner of the third prince Zhu, and now they have settled on Zhu Zhiyuan.
As for Luhuitou Company, it is the white glove of Zhu Zhiyuan, the mysterious Third Prince Zhu, who is also known to everyone.
Naturally, they couldn't say bad things about Luhuitou Company in front of Zhu Zhiyuan. They were all old-timers, and they still had a bit of ascites.
Zhu Zhiyuan could guess what they were thinking. He lit a cigarette and said, "The reason why Luhuitou Company invested in building the Taoxi Dam is actually for our Hushan."
The fundamental purpose of building Taoxi Dam is to make Panshui more suitable for boating, so as to attract tourists from Hushan to Taoxi Town. Deng Xin reported this to Ren Cheng, but there was no publicity. Those who knew not much.
The total investment of building a dam, building a water plant, and building a hotel is 100 million. This melon has been enough for the people of Panxian County for a long time. As for the expected prospects of Panshui tourism, it is invisible and intangible, and not many people are interested. Few people have spread the word, and no one here knows about it.
Mo asked a few questions and everyone was doubtful.
Zhao Chang'ao's eyes lit up: "After the Taoxi Dam is built, you can go down from Hutiao River directly to the dam."
His mind was flexible and he actually guessed a little bit, although not all of them.
"Yes." Zhu Zhiyuan nodded: "We hold the Yangmei Festival. The Yangmei is free. The purpose is to attract tourists to the Tiger Leaping Gorge Scenic Area."
He said for a while: "But, the scenery of the Tiger Leaping Gorge Scenic Area is a bit monotonous. Tourists will not be interested if they go up and look at the mountain. Most people can't stay for twenty or thirty minutes, and maybe Going down the mountain.”
"Yes." Mo Wen nodded: "It's just a bright mountaintop. Even if you can see it from a distance, it doesn't mean much."
"Climb high and look far." Hu Liang argued with him: "That's what climbing a mountain means."
"But you can't stare at it for a few hours." Mo Wen said and looked at Zhu Zhiyuan: "County Magistrate Zhu, I personally suggest that we need to think of something else to fix the Tiger Leaping Gorge scenic spot. My daughter and the others I went there last time and said there wasn’t much to see, so I climbed up the mountain and came down not long after.”
"That's true." Zhu Zhiyuan said: "The Tiger Leaping Gorge Scenic Area is too monotonous. Tourists go up the mountain, take a look, turn around and leave, patting their butts. Maybe they won't keep a penny. What about investors in the Bayberry Festival?" If you invest, you will lose a lot.”
"Yes." Mo Wen was also worried.
Hu Liang said: "You have to buy tickets."
"How much can the tickets cost?" Mo Wen said disdainfully: "Even if we sell twenty-one tickets, it's only 2 million for 100,000 people. This time the Bayberry Festival has 500,000 people, and if they all go, it's only 10 million. But the bayberry alone cost 13 million, not counting anything else."
"Tickets can be more expensive." Hu Liang was used to arguing with him.
"Come on, come on." Mo Wen brought a glass of wine to him: "My glass of wine costs one hundred yuan, do you want it?"
When Hu Liang didn't respond, he sneered and said, "Just take a look at the mountain on the top of Tiger Leaping Gorge. Fifty dollars. I'm telling you, twenty dollars is too much. If you were me, I would be too lazy to climb. .”
"You are you, and others are others, okay?" Hu Liang argued, but he had no confidence.
"County Magistrate Zhu, do you mean to allow tourists to go to Taoxi Dam?" Zhao Chang'ao's guess became clearer.
"Yes." Zhu Zhiyuan said: "The Tiger Leaping Gorge Scenic Area cannot retain people, so investors have suggested that the tourism chain be lengthened."
He drank some wine and drew a schematic diagram on the table: "Tourists come down from the mountain, get on the boat from Hutiao Creek, follow the big drainage, enter Panshui, go all the way to Taoxi Town, forty miles, and then enter Taohua Creek for ten miles. , a total length of fifty miles."
"This is a good idea." Lu Fang, who had been silent for a long time, finally came to his senses: "The scenery in Panshui is great. The three passes, nine twists and turns, and eighteen turns are worth a visit. I used to go there with my dad when I was a child. Platoon, the first time, I was so scared that my legs were weak.”
"Yes, yes, yes." Zhao Chang'ao's eyes became brighter: "Go down to Tiger Leaping Creek, forty miles of water, and then Taoxi Town is actually OK. They used to be rich, they could afford to send books, and they had many officials. Many old houses have been built, they are beautiful and tourists will definitely like them.”
"Those old houses are fine." Mo Wen also nodded: "I've visited them before."
"That Shangshu mansion is so impressive." Hu Liang also nodded.
Wanqianshan Road: "The scenery from Panshui to Taoxi is indeed not inferior to those famous scenic spots, but it has never been developed."
"Now that it's in the hands of County Magistrate Zhu, it can be developed." Mo Wen raised his thumbs.
Zhao Changao looked at Zhu Zhiyuan with bright eyes.
Zhu Zhiyuan said: "The journey down from Hutiao Creek is fifty miles long and takes two to three hours. It's neither fast nor slow."
"Almost." Mo asked, "It was too fast. The scenery passed by in a flash. This speed is just right."
"Yes." Zhu Zhiyuan said: "After entering Taoxi for more than two hours, I am almost hungry. I can go ashore in Taoxi Town to play, take a look, and eat something. In this way, I will also An hour or two."
"Yes." Mo Wen nodded: "It takes at least two hours to play and eat. We are out to play and we are not going to the market. Why are we in such a hurry?"
Hu Liang said: "But this is cheap in Taoxi Town. It includes food, entertainment and shopping. That's money."
"There's nothing we can do about it." Mo Wen sighed.
"Haha." Zhu Zhiyuan smiled: "In this way, four or five hours have passed. It will be almost dark when we come back by boat. Can tourists still leave?"
"You must stay." Zhao Chang'ao slapped his thigh suddenly.
"Come on." Mo Wen was also excited: "There is a huge difference between staying for one night and not staying for one night."
"That's right." Hu Liang stopped arguing with him this time: "It will cost much more to stay for one night."
Wan Qianshan frowned slightly: "One night, thirty yuan..."
"No." Zhu Zhiyuan shook his head: "Luhuitou Company is ready to increase investment."
"Increase investment?" Wan Qianshan and others looked at him.
"Five hundred million." Zhu Zhiyuan stretched out his hand. Since Zhou Yun was deceived, this character must stand firm and not change his words.
"Five hundred million?" Wan Qianshan and others took a deep breath.
"Luhuitou Company plans to build five large hotels on both sides of the Hutiao River. Each hotel has 2,000 standard rooms, totaling 10,000 rooms. It can accommodate up to 20,000 tourists at a time."
"Twenty thousand people at a time." Wan Qianshan and the others sucked in the cold air again.
They have also all stayed in hotels. Generally, five-star hotels have hundreds of rooms, ten thousand rooms, which is incredible.
But when you think about the Bayberry Festival, hundreds of thousands or even millions of people flocked to it, and it’s understandable. There are too few hotel rooms, so why bother? So the money spent on the Bayberry Festival is wasted, isn’t it?
