Chapter 207: Chapter 208: Tourists Enter the Village

"Mute everyone!" Li Yang waved his arm, saying happily, "Quick, tell them about our place."

Gao Xin Xue didn’t need his reminder; she was already on it. She first used her phone to take a few pictures and send them over, then started typing, "Our village really is this beautiful, there’s no doubt about that. We’re just starting to develop it for tourism, so the facilities definitely aren’t all in place yet. But if you want to come, you’re more than welcome. You can drive, or you can take public transport..."

As she typed, Gao Xin Xue sent them some information on how to get there by public transport.

Finally, Gao Xin Xue unmuted them.

"It does look really nice. I’ll find some time to visit."

"Yeah, I want to go and stay for a couple of days too!"

...

Hearing this, Li Yang and Gao Xin Xue both breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed Chief Editor Wang’s influence was useful after all.

"Looks like we need to start preparing..." Li Yang said to Gao Xin Xue. "What are we going to do if people show up tomorrow? I’m worried we won’t be able to handle it."

"We can only provide meals here..." Gao Xin Xue nodded and said, "We can’t offer lodging yet. If people really do come, they’ll have to stay with the villagers. The main thing we need to prepare for is the food situation."

Li Yang nodded. That was indeed the case.

"Alright then. You’re in charge of managing things anyway, so I’ll leave it to you," Li Yang said with a chuckle.

「Early the next morning」 Li Yang was woken up by a commotion.

He went outside to see several cars entering the village, with a dozen or so people talking amongst themselves.

Li Yang’s eyes lit up. ’No doubt about it, they’re definitely here as tourists!’

He hadn’t expected them to actually show up.

"Are you all here for a visit?" Li Yang walked up and asked.

"That’s right!" one of the men immediately asked. "I saw you have some jet skis here. They’re over there, right?"

"Yes, yes, yes..." Li Yang said with a dry laugh. "They’re right over there. Go on ahead, the manager is there."

"Great, thanks!" Soon, the group was already heading that way.

Watching them go, Li Yang slapped his thigh.

’It’s actually happening!’

Even though it was only about ten people, it was a good start. ’Things like this have to be taken slowly; you can’t rush them.’

Gao Xin Xue was also quite happy. Seeing so many people, she immediately began giving them an introduction.

Although the facilities were still lacking, the sight of the large lake and the beach immediately got them in the right mood.

"Xiaoyang, are these people here to visit our village?" a villager asked Li Yang after seeing the group.

Li Yang smiled. "That’s right. They’ve come to our village to have some fun."

"People are really coming to our village for fun..." the villagers remarked with emotion.

They couldn’t quite figure out how Li Yang had done it, how he had managed to get people to come here. But regardless, they all admired him for it.

’Only someone like Li Yang could pull something like this off.’

Meanwhile, Li Yang took a look around and immediately went to find Li Shunsheng.

"Uncle Shunsheng..." Li Yang said with a smile, "I’d like to discuss something with you."

"Go on," Li Shunsheng said.

"I want to rent all the fields over at Wushi Ridge and Wangniu Valley. What do you think?" Li Yang asked.

Li Shunsheng was taken aback. "Rent fields? That many? What are you going to do with them?"

"I want to farm them..." Li Yang said seriously. "As you know, my vegetables have found a market, but the small plot next to my house is nowhere near enough. I want to rent more land to plant more. And it’s not just for vegetables. I need to plant other things too. Those little yellow flowers behind my house? They’re very useful. There are buyers in the city, and they sell really well. I want to grow those flowers. What do you think?"

Li Shunsheng couldn’t quite understand it. Why was Li Yang trying to expand so much?

In his opinion, Li Yang already had enough on his plate. He should settle down, get his current projects in order, and then think about other things.

"You’d better think this through..." Li Shunsheng said. "If you really want to rent all that, you’ll still need the villagers’ approval. After all, it’s their land."

"I know. I just wanted to give you a heads-up first," Li Yang said with a smile. "If you agree, I’ll go talk to them."

"It’s not that I disagree. I just think you shouldn’t run so fast. I’m afraid you’ll fall," Li Shunsheng said, worried for Li Yang.

’It’s been so long since our village produced someone so capable. You can’t afford to fail.’

"Don’t worry, Uncle. I really need this land. I’m not just acting recklessly," Li Yang said.

He didn’t know how Su Yunmeng’s research was progressing, but regardless, he had to expand the production of his Chrysalis Flowers again. Otherwise, he might not be able to keep up with demand.

For something like this, he had to have a plan ready in advance. If he waited until their technology was mature, he wouldn’t be able to grow enough, and he’d fall even further behind on supply.

"Alright!" Li Shunsheng said. "How about this? I’ll call them all over here and ask. How does that sound?"

"Great!" Li Yang said happily.

Before long, Li Shunsheng had used the village broadcast system to summon everyone.

Soon, people had already arrived at the village committee office.
