Chapter 1748: Chapter 828: Garden Enterprise, Folk Town (Thanks to "New Moon Glory" Alliance Leader)_2
After a long tour, there’s still a featured program remaining.
Well, this program is a bit bloody, but if you only watch part of it, it’s not that terrifying.
Old Gao led people in demonstrating slaughtering techniques on site, and after a busy moment, someone directly brought a plate of beef over for everyone to look at.
Then, Heizi acted as the professional introducer, explaining everything from the beef’s fat content to its marbling, leaving people amazed—who would believe this person was once paraded around the street by his father for gambling? Just look at this professional attitude, can anyone without a certain level of skill do this?
"This type of beef, we’ve been supplying to the Provincial City and Black Gold City, as well as multiple developed coastal cities, including Hong Kong’s steak restaurants. We’ve already signed an agreement with a customer in the Capital, and before the Lantern Festival, this beef will appear in the Capital."
"In addition to this, as previously reported to Director Yu, we’ve made two attempts to export to America, and the situation is currently promising. It’s expected that we can establish a fixed supply relationship."
"As for the price, it’s inconvenient for us to disclose the supply price. Anyway, outside at the restaurants, the cost of this kind of steak starts at one hundred sixty-eight yuan per portion..."
The red and white beef looks beautiful, but the price is really steep!
"Don’t worry everyone, taking advantage of today’s opportunity, we also count as doing some publicity, setting up a free tasting event," Yan Fei added cheerfully beside them. "Since we’ve slaughtered the cow today, it would be a waste not to finish it all. Everyone, please eat to your heart’s content, no charge."
Everyone laughed upon hearing this, and together praised the young boss for his eloquence—spoken this way, it’s perfectly reasonable for the work meal to exceed the standard!
Coming here, seeing someone offering their products for everyone to taste, who’s going to stick rigidly to standards in conversation; that would be somewhat... lacking human touch!
Now that we’re here, it’s only appropriate to invite everyone to visit the laboratory. As for Elder Qi’s startling identity, that indirectly proves the quality of the wellness environment here.
Also occasionally promoting the laboratory is part of Boss Yan’s ultimate plan, a necessary step. Although it doesn’t directly relate to environmental protection, an outstanding private entrepreneur independently investing in a high-standard laboratory is indeed promotional material, right?
As for the lunch served, naturally, there’s no need to mention it; Boss Yan returned early, and what he prepared wouldn’t be lacking. When he returned, his car was full of fresh vegetables, and after arriving home, he went out again to ’purchase’ a batch of live seafood, all to prepare for lunch.
Everyone was elated by the unexpectedly delightful inspection, so the meal was naturally enjoyed by hosts and guests alike.
Director Liu was thoroughly impressed with Boss Yan. Seizing the opportunity of Director Yu taking a walk after lunch, he kept chatting with Yan Fei about family topics affectionately, almost wanting to become sworn brothers on the spot.
When Director Liu finally released him, Yan Fei quickly pulled Township Chief Fu over for a few drinks.
Not drinking would make him seem insincere; he didn’t put on any airs today, fooled around preaching about Sancha County, and even promoted the Morning Glory Cattle Ranch.
Indeed, the young man who started off seeming a bit reckless and joined Director Yu was none other than Fu Zhen, the successor to Mayor Chen in Sancha River County.
This fellow is said to have a significant background, but he keeps a low profile since he arrived. He didn’t even want to get involved in the ribbon cutting at the bridge’s groundbreaking ceremony, resolutely stating it was done during Secretary Chen’s time and not suitable for him just yet.
Then, he started touring around daily on a motorcycle, taking a young person who knows the county well along to every village to get acquainted with the situation. Although a couple of roads have been built connecting villages now, some roads are still muddy lanes, but he doesn’t mind.
No matter how you look at it, this approach isn’t like those who come just to make achievements and leave, the preliminary work observed has gradually led everyone to accept this new township chief.
These tidbits couldn’t escape Yan Fei, the local bigwig here.
For Yan Fei, since someone genuinely wants to accomplish something, he certainly wouldn’t hinder them, right?
Fu Zhen had never really engaged with Yan Fei before coming. Now that he found an opportunity, he brought up a question: "Boss Yan, do you think our small town would stand a chance if we apply to become a local tourism town?"
"I don’t really understand that!" Yan Fei replied in surprise. frёewebnoѵēl.com
"It’s quite simple, just set up a few scenic spots, which don’t even need to be selected. The ancient buildings in the high school courtyard are excellent promotional points. Funds allocated for repairing historical sites were mostly diverted to school construction all along. If these buildings can be repaired, they’ll definitely attract visits."
"The row of storefronts across the school could also be renovated. You know more about the old buildings in our town than I do. Those old houses could be slightly fixed up and pretended to be historical buildings! Anyway, our ancient structure is genuine, those who understand it and those who don’t can both discern that."
"Plus, our traditional programs, dragon and lion dances, Bei Zhuang Xi, etc., can all be revitalized. Last time at the bridge’s groundbreaking ceremony, many outsiders came specifically for these activities."
"Moreover, we’ve got plenty of water and a complete circuit of old castle walls. Planting some willows along the riverside and developing a wetland park would make for a top leisure and entertainment destination. As long as we slowly develop these basic infrastructures and promote it vigorously, enhancing our town’s reputation, developing a little tourism industry surely wouldn’t be a problem."
Yan Fei listened, bewildered: "This could attract people over?"
"Why not?" Fu Zhen said confidently. "However, there’s one issue requiring your support, Boss Yan. Producing world-class beef here is also a selling point. Plus, isn’t our cooperative cattle raising method always being publicized by the province?"
"I can slowly raise funds for the infrastructure, and since it’s folk culture, traditional items could be organized by people. But there are a lot of places where I need your support, not for funding, but for promotional cooperation..."
Yan Fei further asked, "Traditional items? Mainly referring to what?"
"All sorts of crafts could count; for instance, the engraved pens at the school could count. Pure manual and livestock-powered tofu making counts, blacksmithing counts... these things are gradually disappearing, but if we can preserve them, people will eventually want to come and see."
"Think about it, when everyone else is rushing to develop, we’re intentionally preserving these things deemed outdated by others. Eventually, they’ll all have identical new-town models, but we’ll have the original flavor; won’t we be the more attractive option?"
Yan Fei cheerfully agreed: "Sure, as long as you think it’s not made just for fun, coordinate with Heizi since I’m often away now. Normally if there’s something, you’ll have to reach out to him."
Fu Zhen paused for a moment before expressing gratitude to Yan Fei for his support.
He had been here for too short a time, had understood a lot about the town’s sentiments, had heard plenty about Boss Yan’s remarkable feats, but hadn’t heard how Boss Yan grew up in a certain environment—after all, for the locals, Boss Yan is everyone’s pride; what’s spoken to outsiders certainly highlights the good and not the bad.
Yan Fei’s quick agreement was precisely due to his unintended casual comment about ’blacksmithing also counting.’
Even now, Yan Fei hasn’t forgotten his plan to reopen the blacksmith shop!
It may seem, however, that this wish is becoming increasingly distant.
So at this moment, regarding Fu Zhen’s idea which sounds ’quite unreliable,’ he showed a supportive attitude. Even if it doesn’t succeed, to beautify the town isn’t a bad thing, right?
Moreover, the county isn’t short of funds now, and Sancha River County can indeed claim to be the richest in the area, with no other counties daring to contest it.
It’s merely a matter of perspective, and besides, Yan Fei vaguely believes this ’unreliable’ idea might still have some merit. There’s still Courtyard House in the Capital, after all, yet they didn’t demolish these houses for international metropolitan development...
