31: Tourism development ideas
The group of four traveled all the way to Dawa Village, but instead of going to the village committee, they went to Eagle Gorge Mouth, a famous spot in Dawa Village.
Eagle Gorge Mouth, as its name suggests, is a cliff tens of meters high a few kilometers above Dawa Village, with a protrusion that resembles an eagle's beak.
This is how Eagle Gorge Mouth got its name.
The stream flowing down from the mountain above passes through Eagle Gorge Mouth, as if spitting out from an eagle's beak, forming a waterfall tens of meters high below, constantly rushing downstream.
It eventually passes by Dawa Village and flows further downstream.
This river is called Zicheng River. Legend has it that long ago, a couple who had been infertile for many years, unable to bear the gossip of others, moved to Dawa Village.
The water they drank and used was all from Zicheng River. Before long, the woman became pregnant. The couple, grateful to the river, named it Zicheng River.
Only later did Dawa Village come into existence.
Looking at the scenery before them, Jiang Yufei smiled and said, "Town Chief, the scenery here is quite good, isn't it? If we develop it a little, it could become a nice tourist attraction."
He nodded and said, "Your thoughts align with mine. I originally came out this time to see which places in Heping Town could be developed for tourism.
I didn't expect you, a Propaganda Committee Member, to have the same idea.
Look! Tens of meters below the waterfall, the river becomes very gentle. If we build safety measures and set up a rafting project here, wouldn't it be very suitable?"
Jiang Yufei smiled and nodded, then spoke again, "You've given me a new idea. How about this, Town Chief? After I visit all the villages in Heping Town and draft a proposal, I'll consult you again.
How about we complete this plan together?"
He nodded and said with a smile, "I originally had this idea too, but after listening to the Former Town Mayor, I have more important things to do.
So, I'll leave it to you. This task will be hard work for you."
Jiang Yufei immediately understood his meaning, knowing that he intended to confront Yu Hualin on a certain matter. She couldn't help but say, "Town Chief, some matters require method and strategy; we can't be too hasty."
"Some things I can concede and compromise on, but other things I must face head-on.
I cannot allow corruption to happen right under my nose, no matter how difficult it is, it must be dealt with."
Lin Zifeng's gaze was firm, revealing a domineering side.
Jiang Yufei's eyes lit up, and she casually said, "No matter what you do, I will support your decision.
If things become impossible, at worst, I'll suffer with you."
He looked at Wang Zhongyu and Li Qiang, who were standing in the distance, before speaking again, "Aren't you afraid of being ostracized and suppressed by Yu Hualin?
Don't forget, Yu Hualin is Yu Guodong's man. Could Yu Guodong not know about the things Yu Hualin and Yu Dacheng have done?
So, once you choose to stand with me, it's not as simple as just facing Yu Hualin; there's also the big shot Yu Guodong!"
"If you, the Town Chief, aren't afraid, what do I have to be afraid of?
Don't underestimate me. You have a heart for the people, and so do I.
You're not the only one who's young and spirited."
Jiang Yufei said with a determined expression.
"Thank you for your honesty and trust, and thank you for your support. However, you don't need to show it openly. Sometimes, being unexpected yields better results."
Lin Zifeng said sincerely.
Jiang Yufei nodded, and after a brief, quiet discussion, the two walked downstream along the river.
"Town Chief, even if we create a detailed plan for our tourism development project, Heping Town's finances won't be able to provide such a large amount of funding.
Will we be doing something useless?"
Jiang Yufei said with some concern.
"If we rely on Heping Town's finances to do tourism development projects, that's wishful thinking.
If we can't rely on the town's finances, we can find investors, can't we? If the bosses in The County Seat don't have the capability, we'll go to City Level, to Provincial Level to find them.
As long as we find a big boss interested in our tourism project, are we still afraid of not attracting investment?
At that time, with our town as the main body, and together with the villagers of the respective villages, investing land and resources, we can achieve a win-win cooperation with developers."
He said with confidence.
Hearing his idea, Jiang Yufei's eyes lit up, and she said happily, "If that's the case, the most crucial funding issue will be resolved, and other work will be easier to complete.
"We still need to plant good phoenix trees to attract golden phoenixes.
The plan must be detailed, not only with text descriptions but also with pictures and video materials.
We need to search for more folk tales and intersperse them in the introduction for better results."
Lin Zifeng said thoughtfully.
Jiang Yufei nodded in agreement, and the two discussed work all the way, unknowingly walking a long distance.
Lin Zifeng looked up at the sky and stopped.
"It's getting late, let's head back to the town!"
Jiang Yufei assented, and the two walked towards the car by the roadside.
After they got into the car, Li Qiang drove towards the town.
By the time Li Qiang drove the car into the Town Government compound, the sun had already set, and other staff members had long since gone home.
Except for the Gatekeeper at the main entrance, the entire compound was quiet.
After the four got out of the car, he said with a smile, "You all go back! I'm going to the office to get something."
When he left today, he only brought his work phone. His other phone was dead, so he left it in the office to charge.
Jiang Yufei had originally planned to invite him to dinner, but seeing the two who hadn't left yet, she swallowed the words she was about to say.
She assented and walked towards the dormitories behind.
"Town Chief, what do you need to get? I'll get it for you?"
Wang Zhongyu asked.
"No need, you and Xiao Li can just get off work."
After replying, he walked upstairs.
He entered his office, retrieved his phone, then turned and walked out. When he reached the staircase on the second floor, he heard a door open and curiously looked over.
He saw Deputy Town Mayor Cao Shuang opening his office door and looking at him.
Seeing that it was him, Cao Shuang smiled and said, "Town Chief, you haven't left work yet at this late hour?"
"I just got back from the countryside and came to the office to get something. Town Chief Cao, haven't you left work yet either?"
He didn't rush to leave, standing there and smiling.
"I'm on duty today; otherwise, I would have gone home long ago.
Town Chief, are you used to living alone in the back dormitory? If you're not in a hurry to go back, how about coming in for a chat?
I'm bored alone and was just about to have a drink! If Town Chief doesn't mind, how about we have a drink together?"
Cao Shuang said with some hesitation.
"What's there to get used to or not used to for a bachelor like me? I was just wondering what to eat when I got back! How could I refuse Town Chief Cao's invitation?"
He said as he walked over.
