Chapter 656: A Detailed Talk About Beishan

After Xixi listened to me finish speaking,

she then said, "Uncle, I've already talked with my dad. At the end of the month we'll go back to take a look. It's been many years since I last returned to Beishan."

I said, "Since you moved to Niushiling, you haven't gone back."

After we sat down in the meeting room, Li Jia proactively poured tea for us.

"Xixi, look at you, Sister Li Jia, how perceptive you are.

We hadn't even sat down yet, and she was already busy pouring tea."

"Alright, Mr. Zhao, don't flatter me. I'll get conceited," Li Jia said with a smile.

At that moment, Shi Yong also came in from outside,

"We're having a meeting, I'm not late, right?"

"No, Shi Yong, your arrival is perfect. As for Yang Tao, call her down to join as well," I said to Shi Yong.

"Why call her? What does that woman understand?" Shi Yong objected.

"Shi Yong, Yang Tao is already involved inside.

If you won't call her, let Li Jia do it," I gestured toward Li Jia.

Li Jia nodded and went up to the hotel's room to call Yang Tao.

I took out a cigarette, just about to light it, when Xixi looked at me and said,

"Uncle, could you smoke a little less?

I see you have a cigarette in your hand all day; how can your body endure it?"

"Xixi is right; I've already quit smoking. If you smoke again, it's like tempting me into a mistake," Shi Yong said from beside.

"If I'm not going to smoke, then I won't; I had to pack the cigarette away."

After a short while, Li Jia came in from outside with Yang Tao.

When Yang Tao saw it, her expression turned a bit angry.

Shi Yong looked at Yang Tao indifferently.

Li Jia pulled a stool,

"Sister Yang, have a seat."

Yang Tao sat down.

I gestured for Li Jia to sit as well.

I glanced at everyone,

then I said, "Today, I've gathered everyone for a brief meeting to tell you about what I saw and heard in Beishan and Gourd Village.

After you hear me out, if you have any good suggestions, please share them."

Shi Yong and I drove from Xin Cheng into Beishan,

but the mountain road that was repaired before has collapsed, so our car couldn't get into Beishan and stopped halfway.

To get from Xin Cheng to Beishan, the road into the mountains needs to be rebuilt.

The mountain road from Beishan to Gourd Village is also severely damaged.

The road is the key right now.

After we entered Beishan, North Mountain Village had already been relocated; it now belongs to Xin Cheng.

Only a few dilapidated houses that haven't collapsed remain.

The city once planned to develop North Mountain Village into a tourist area, but the investment was too large, so it was eventually abandoned.

In Gourd Village we only saw an elderly guardian of the village,

the village is basically abandoned as well.

We didn't go to the other villages; we assume the situation is similar.

That's the basic situation,

Xixi, write down everything I say; I need to write a report for Tian Shi."

Xixi nodded and kept writing.

I continued, "In North Mountain Village I saw pleasant scenery: Hama Spring, Nüwa Temple, Wangfu Mountain, etc. Moreover, Hama Spring has great development value,

in the past Hama was considered a divine spring; encountering its eruption required fate, because its timing and location were unpredictable.

The spring water can cure infertility in both men and women.

Back then many people seeking children lived near Hama Spring."

"Is it really that miraculous?" Li Jia asked, a bit skeptical.

"It's true, Sister Li Jia. My father told the story of Hama Spring, and my mother said many people sought the spring water back then. But now people go to hospitals, so no one seeks it anymore," Xixi explained.

After hearing this, Yang Tao,

"Jianqiang, drinking that spring water can cure infertility; is that a legend?"

I smiled,

"Yang Tao, you know that years ago Xia Yuan drank that spring water to have Ya Ya, and then became pregnant. That's indisputable; it's my real experience, and Shi Yong also went with me."

"Right, I went along. You and Sister Xia were at Hama Spring waiting for the water, and I was guarding outside," Shi Yong replied.

After Shi Yong finished speaking, Yang Tao gave a contemptuous smile.

I didn't know what her smile meant.

I ignored Yang Tao,

"Besides Hama Spring, there's Lying Ox Stone; those massive Lying Ox Stones also cure illnesses. Shi Yong and I have both lain on them.

As long as you lie on them,

the stone beneath feels warm, like a charger, recharging the body.

It will fill the body in a moment.

We can walk from Beishan to Hulutao without getting tired because that Lying Ox Stone is charged with electricity.

When Shi Yong first entered the mountains, he was a bit out of breath, but after sleeping a while on the Lying Ox Stone, he immediately wasn't out of breath.

This stone is the gas station.

"Tsk, Jianqiang, you're just talking nonsense." Yang Tao didn't believe any of it.

"You definitely won't believe it, but if you find time to lie down, you'll know,"

I, Shi Yong, have never spoken nonsense,

"Really, when I lie on it, I directly have…." Shi Yong said.

I quickly used my hand to stop Shi Yong.

"I mean the body has more strength. Brother, let me explain." Shi Yong explained.

Li Jia and the others' faces all turned red.

It would be better if Shi Yong didn't explain; explaining just makes it more confusing.

"Alright, Shi Yong, stop explaining. Why am I saying this? It's to add publicity material for our future tourism project."

To attract people, we need something.

These are just one aspect; you should expand the content based on them. Think about it, we are developing tourism in Beishan,

How to promote.

Actually, Beishan Village and Hulutao Village are not bad; most houses are built of stone.

Such houses are rare in plain areas.

But no one lives there, and many houses are ruined.

As long as we repair them a bit, people will come to see.

The One Line Sky in Hulutao Village is also a selling point.

The caves there are unfathomably deep; we should send an expedition team to explore the One Line Sky and find its exit.

Then add artificial facilities to lower the difficulty for people entering the cave.

Then we can develop the tourism project.

Li Jia, you are the main person in charge,

You need to think about how to develop and construct the tourism project, and preferably come up with a proposal.

Li Jia said: "Okay, Mr. Zhao, I'll handle what you said."

Regarding the expedition team, I'll find them.

I'll go inspect these places in person tomorrow, then come up with a plan.

I nodded,

"Xixi, your Ancient Xue Kingdom project also needs a detailed explanation: how we will build it, what aspects need investment, what the Ancient Xue Kingdom will showcase."

"You should have a clear idea of what kind of buildings to construct."

Xixi said: "Uncle, I've been looking online these days at the development of the Ancient City."

I feel that developing it into a film and television city would be better in the future.

For example, the Three Kingdoms Ancient City and the Water Margin Ancient City have already become tourism hotspots, and many film and TV dramas have stationed there to shoot.

"Good, this idea can be considered."

We need to pool ideas and think and act.

We should design several aspects and submit a relatively good plan to report to Tian Shi.

I will contact provincial experts tomorrow to conduct research and have them write a feasibility report.

Then submit it for provincial approval.

We are not idle about this matter.

Shi Yong, you will come back with me to Zaocheng tomorrow.

Xixi, organize what I said today into a report. I will submit it to Tian Shi. Li Jia, take people to the One Line Sky to figure it out.

Everyone nodded after hearing me finish.

At this moment, Yang Tao said: "Jianqiang, you're all busy, what should I do?"
