Chapter 637: Booming Business
Business at Taoyuan Village Tourist Farm and Green Fresh supermarkets were booming.
Customers who had visited the supermarkets and tourists who had visited Taoyuan Village helped promote them on the internet.
Then, many people rushed to Taoyuan Village in the hope that Green Fresh would open a branch in their cities. Taoyuan Village became very famous. The visitors were endless. It was overcrowded during the holidays. In order to avoid accidents, Xiao Lingyu had to hire more security personnel to maintain order.
This had brought traffic to Xing An Town and Xing Yin County. The entire county and town became prosperous and lively. It was even livelier than when they used to celebrate the New Year.
The economy of the county improved. With support from the government, the people from all over the county started small businesses such as selling specialty products, making snacks, and so on. People were creative.
Of course, the best business was still accommodation, food, and transportation.
Every day, tourists gathered from all over the country, even when the traffic was at its lowest, had reached 20,000 to 30,000 people. During the holidays, the highest traffic reached 200,000 to 300,000 people, practically squeezing out the entire Xingyin County. One had to know that the population of the entire Xingyin County was only barely 600,000.
Suddenly, there were an additional 200,000 to 300,000 people. All sorts of problems surfaced. The roads were not wide enough. There were not enough hotels and eateries.
Therefore, hotels, restaurants, and all kinds of shops mushroomed like bamboo shoots after rain.
Public facilities such as wider roads, service areas, gas stations, and so on also increased thanks to subsidies from the government. This helped a lot in the futures of the council members. It would make their promotions look more promising.
“Wow, is this Taoyuan Village?”
“Look at the sign of the village. The stone carving is really beautiful.”
“Mom, are these peach trees?”A little girl pointed at the trees on both sides and asked.
The young mother nodded and said, “Yes, these are the peach trees!”
“There are so many!” The little girl said excitedly, “There’s a small fruit on the tree. Is it a peach?”
Her mother smiled and said, “Yes, it’s a peach!”
“Can they be picked and eaten?”
Her mother explained, “Baby, you can’t pick them right now. Because these peaches haven’t grown and matured yet. When the peaches are ripe, they can be eaten!”
“Then, Mommy, when will the peaches ripen?”
“It should be around August or September.”
“Mommy, when the peaches are ripe, can we come here to pick peaches?”
“Okay, Mommy will definitely bring baby back here to pick peaches.”
Taoyuan Village was a natural tourist destination. Many parents were willing to bring their children to experience the beautiful scenery of nature during the summer vacation.
“So many peach trees! I’ve seen it on the internet before. When the peach blossoms were in full bloom, some people came here to travel and saw peach blossoms all over the mountains and plains. They were so beautiful.”
“It’s a pity that the flowering season is already over.”
“We can always come back next year!”
“Look, there are green peaches hanging on these peach trees. I guess they can be picked soon.”
“I heard that the peaches grown here are especially delicious. I wonder if it’s true?”
In the past, Taoyuan Village didn’t have a good transportation system. No matter how delicious the peaches were, they couldn’t be transported out. Of course, they couldn’t be sold.
“It should be true. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be peach trees growing everywhere. If they aren’t delicious, who would the owner sell them to?”
“That makes sense. When will they pick the peaches? Shall we come back when the peaches are ripe?”
“From the looks of it, it should be a medium-ripe variety. I reckon harvesting season will be in August or September. Alright, we’ll find some time and come back!”
They were from the neighboring city. They could drive here.
“I heard that the biggest feature here is that the things grown here are especially delicious. In a while, we’ll try them. If they’re really delicious, we’ll bring some back and let everyone have a taste.”
“Of course, we can! The Green Fresh supermarkets, which caused a commotion on the internet, have such good business. Every day, people are queuing up at the supermarkets.”
“Yes, I heard that many rich families have specially hired someone just to line up at these supermarkets.”
“Some time ago, when Green Fresh was involved in a scandal, supermarkets everywhere were temporarily closed. Only the supermarket in City Z was still open. Then, rich people from all over flew helicopters over to buy vegetables. At first, people didn’t know what was going on. They thought that there was a military exercise. Later, they found out that they were all going to buy vegetables.”
“They actually drove a plane to buy vegetables. That’s unprecedented. It’s too sensational!”
“This proves how good the vegetables here are. Think about it. These rich and powerful people don’t lack money, but they care about enjoyment. They will only spend on the best things. Their mouths are so picky, but they praise the green and fresh vegetables in Taoyuan Village so much. This shows how good the vegetables here are.”
“It’s almost lunchtime, and I’m a little hungry. Why don’t we go eat?”
“Okay. But where shall we go?” They looked around. Then, they saw a sign. One of them pointed at the sign. “Look, there’s a sign. It says Taoyuan Village Canteen.”
“Are we going to eat at a canteen?” The companion asked with some confusion. “Is the food at a canteen any good?”
“I saw many people walking in that direction. Are they all going to eat? Let’s go and have a look too.”
“Okay, let’s go!”
When Ren Yingying and her friends came to the Taoyuan Village Canteen, they were a little stunned when they saw the full canteen.
“There are so many people!” Ren Yingying said in surprise.
The decoration of the peach blossom village canteen was actually not much different from that of the big restaurant. There were wooden tables set up by the villagers. There were tables for two, tables for four, tables for eight, and even big tables for ten to twenty people.
The main dining hall was indeed quite big. There were about a hundred tables. The canteen provided a selection of simple cooking. They were prepared and placed in insulated cabinets.
Each dish was marked with a price. You could ask the staff to hand you the dishes you wanted.
There was rice, dumplings, noodles, steamed buns, steamed buns, and bread. Taoyuan village belonged to the southern region. The staple food they ate was mainly rice.
“These dishes are so beautiful. They look so appetizing!” Shi Xiaoqi drooled and said, “Also, why do these dishes smell so good?”
Ren Yingying pulled Shi Xiaoqi and pointed at the people eating at the dining table, “Look at these people enjoying the food. The food here must be delicious. Xiaoqi, let’s find a place to sit down first and then order the dishes.”
Shi Xiaoqi looked around and frowned. “All the seats are taken. Where can we find seats?”
“Let’s walk around and see if anyone has finished their meals.” Ren Yingying suggested.
“Okay, let’s walk around first!”
After about ten minutes, they finally found a table and quickly occupied it.
One person occupied the table, and the other went to order the dishes.
“How can these dishes be so delicious?”
“Yeah, they are wonderful!”
They now understood why the people around them wolfed down the food as if they hadn’t eaten for 800 years.
After all, the food was too delicious!
