MTL - If You Don’t Farm, You’ll Die-Chapter 45
The 30,000 tickets for the trial operation were sold out within a minute, and Taoyuan Town became famous in one battle.
What is the hottest topic on Weibo right now?
Is the celebrity cheating and getting divorced? Tear on the spot? Or another hit TV show?
Not at all!
Taoyuan Town's trending search went from tail to No. 1 all of a sudden, and even after hanging up for a long time, the popularity is still undiminished and still on the hot search.
The entire Internet is hotly discussing whether those people who appeared in the promotional video will really be restored as they are, whether those are real tourists acting as real people, NPCs specially invited by the town, or just a gimmick.
People with different hobbies also formed their own groups and made appointments directly online.
Fans of antiquity simply fell into a sea of joy, without him, Taoyuan Town is divided into several areas with various types, but there is only one theme—the focus is on recreating the costumes and history of Huaguo.
These ancient style lovers usually wear their own beautiful skirts when they go to the street, but they still attract envious or surprised eyes in the eyes of other people, but it is different here, all people dress up in ancient costumes!
They can put on ancient costumes unscrupulously, blend into this small town, visit those restaurants and inns to buy gadgets, even thinking about it is exciting.
There are also people who love online games and are waiting for the day when Taoyuan Town will open for business. They hope to play those ancient games where they receive missions and visit the beautiful scenery, but that is just a game. It is impossible to do holography with the current technology, but!
Taoyuan Town generously requires all tourists to go in and play the roles they want, and there are real NPCs to cooperate with the release of tasks. Internal sources say that the NPCs inside are all experienced actors.
The vendors on the road, the owner of the inn, and the performers on the street, tens of thousands of people play roles in it. Isn't this a large-scale real-life game? !
Good guy, Nie is really the God of Wealth. Who would have thought of this, and it's not unexpected, but it's just that it can't be done by so many people, and it costs a lot of money every month.
Not to mention buying land, building houses and buildings, it does not rule out that some technical actors have high salaries, and it takes a lot of effort in terms of security. The monthly cost is staggering.
However, the cooperation between Nie and Taoyuan, it has to be said, has greatly stimulated the economy of S city, and it has started to shine from a second-tier city.
City S government is studying whether to take advantage of the trend to attract more highly educated talents. Taoyuan Town is not far from the center of City S. It’s like many film crews went to shoot scenes after an ancient city was built. They also feel that Taoyuan Town has a limitless future. , must think carefully.
At the moment when everyone is looking forward to it, Taoyuan Town unveiled its mysterious veil on the last day of December. Li Guoguo and Nie Yunqing cut the ribbon at the gate. It is only natural that he came to cut the ribbon to unveil.
Standing in front of the media reporters and many tourists waiting to enter the town, the two of them showed a standard smile, not overly intimate, but the occasional look in the eyes between the two still made the Taoyuan fans who watched the live broadcast feel complicated.
It's a good thing that the anchor lady is in love, especially if she is the leader of the Nie family. Everyone has a lot of assets, and there is no gossip. They are handsome, rich, and love their girlfriends. Also feel guilty.
But it's just hard to calm down...the cabbage that grows so beautifully and juicy has been arched, can they be calm?
There are also a considerable number of Taoyuan fans who don't feel anything about it. They like Taoyuan because of her attitude towards life and her current life status. She is not a star in everyone's feelings, so they don't need to explain to others.
The other tourists didn't care much about Li Guoguo and Nie Yunqing's love history. They stared at the Taoyuan Town behind them with fiery eyes. Now it is very quiet inside and no one is seen. I don't know if it is as advertised.
Zhuo Xuelin and Qin Hongdou are the most common couple among the many tourists. They came together because they love the ancient style circle, and their enthusiasm has not diminished after graduation and work. In fact, they have another purpose for coming this time, which is to see if they can Hold a wedding here first step on the spot.
They got acquainted with the Gufeng circle and fell in love with each other in the Gufeng circle. At such an important moment in life, they also hope to introduce the blessings of all relatives and friends under such circumstances.
But both of them are ordinary office workers. After buying the house, they don't have much money left. How to organize the wedding banquet has become a big problem. The parents of both parties have completely different ideas from the couple, which is also one of the reasons why the wedding banquet was not settled. .
They have known for a long time that Taoyuan Town will be opened, but they have never known what it will be like. As soon as the promotional video was released, the two couldn't wait to grab tickets to experience it. If possible, they would invite relatives and friends to come here. Hold a wedding and experience how the ancients held a wedding.
When they asked the customer service if Taoyuan Town has this business, the customer service said that if they don’t mind strangers coming to visit, the boss is willing to give them a free wedding as the first wedding held in Taoyuan Town, the two were excited endlessly.
Like everyone else, Zhuo Xuelin and Qin Hongdou held hands and waited for the sound of the drum in front of them. The ribbon-cutters got out of the way, and a lion dance team led the crowd to Taoyuan Town amidst the lively drums and firecrackers.
The tourists walked together with familiar smiles on their faces. Some looked like scholars in long robes, and some looked like businessmen in brocade robes. Walking through the door was like entering a strange world, as if traveling through time and space.
The cold winter wind can't blow away everyone's enthusiasm, especially after stepping on the blue bricks and walking into this main commercial street, everyone is a little surprised. The street is full of people, vendors, customers, shop owners, what they guessed It all came true!
Zhuo Xuelin and Qin Hongdou blushed with excitement, they were dressed as standard students and girls who have not left the pavilion, and the currency used here is of course Hua Guobi, and the two of them noticed that tourists had already gone in to buy snacks.
Steaming sugar cakes, ruddy and shiny candied haws, as well as hawkers selling wontons, the two quickly found a wonton stand and sat down to order.
"Boss, how do you sell your wontons?" Zhuo Xuelin asked while sitting at the square table rubbing his cold hands.
"A bowl of ten Tongbao."
Tongbao replaced the title of RMB, which made people less dramatic. Correspondingly, one tael of silver represents one hundred yuan, one tael of gold is ten thousand yuan, etc., but presumably no one would spend such money, right?
The boss put a white towel on his shoulders, and put the wontons in the pot neatly. The boiling hot soup was surging, but it was cooked in a few minutes. He scooped it up with a wooden spoon, and sprinkled green onion, seaweed, mustard, and sesame oil on top. Two bowls of wontons were ready and placed on their table.
The two picked up a wooden spoon and took a sip. The soup was very salty and fragrant, and the wontons were delicious. After eating it on a cold day, it warmed up from the mouth to the stomach, and then warmed the whole body.
Qin Hongdou said directly to Zhuo Xuelin: "I feel that the town of Taoyuan is going to be on fire! Look at these utensils, they are all made of wood! I don't know where the wires are hidden so I can't see them."
Zhuo Xuelin raised his chin and pointed to a small box-shaped thing under the food stall and said: "It should be that the wires were buried. I guess the location of the stall was planned when it was built, and then all the cables and water pipes were buried in it." Underground, so that once they set up their stalls, nothing can be seen from the outside."
Qin Hongdou observed carefully. Except for the wandering vendors, the distance between each stall was indeed about the same. There were other people looking around like her. Everyone was not afraid of the cold. They went from shop to shop. There were also many antique clothing stores. They all know several of the above signboard names.
In order to restore the old-fashioned flavor with all its strength, Nie’s almost all the businesses here are related to traditional culture. Several well-known hamburger fast food restaurants wanted to open stores, but Peng He politely rejected them, saying that the style is different.
But Chinese takeaway chain stores are fine, as long as the dishes are arranged a little bit, it is a unique business here.
Zhuo Xuelin and Qin Hongdou continued to walk forward after eating, paid the money, passed by the pastry shop, and saw a shop selling the Four Treasures of the Study, and even a small library was selling the four classics at a discount. The two looked at it for a while, laughing. I just walked to the restaurant in the center of the town. The restaurants opposite the inn are both landmark buildings in the town, and they are also places where everyone goes to hand over tasks.
Since Zhuo Xuelin is dressed as a scholar, he must go to the Imperial College to study. Qin Hongdou has no tasks, only daily tasks to pick up. The two curiously took the jade sign from Xiao Er, and heard Xiao Er said:
"The two of you can go to the counter to hand over the task after completing the task every day. We can sense it, and the task will appear on it."
The two were surprised for a while, then nodded and thanked Xiaoer for hanging the sign on his waist and walking out, Qin Hongdou said: "Then we can also use cards here from now on? Now everyone is used to paying with mobile phones. It’s very troublesome to pay for the bill.”
"I heard it's still under construction. Isn't it a trial operation this week? If there are problems, we can continue to improve. Anyway, I think it's pretty good here." Zhuo Xuelin really likes Taoyuan Town more and more, and even a little flaw is not hidden. .
Zhuo Xuelin's task today is to go to the Imperial College to study and complete the teacher's classwork, while Erqin Hongdou is going to deliver letters to the proprietress of the inn, and the two parted briefly.
When Zhuo Xuelin entered the Imperial College, he saw a group of students with short hair and Confucian hats. When he saw a newcomer coming, he waved his hands excitedly. The Jiaoyu coughed lightly in front of him, and everyone became quieter, especially like a middle school student. Dean.
All people who come in have to abide by one point, try not to be OOC, people who come in are to experience ancient life, not for you to treat this as a film and television city, and the two are completely different.
There are 30 students in a class, and everyone is kneeling on the futon, waiting for the teacher to come in...
Like Zhuo Xuelin and the others, there are other people who have received tasks. This is a study direction assigned according to the free choice occupation they filled out. There are also those who like to work as apprentices in pharmacies and help doctors. Of course, the doctors here They are all Chinese doctors specially invited to sit in the town.
Don't mention it, Western doctors are everywhere now. Although Chinese medicine has its own audience, but such a place of natural publicity, these Chinese medicine practitioners are definitely willing to come here. Besides, the air here is good, the environment is good, and the food is delicious. Who would not be willing to come here? How many days do you stay?
The vegetables sold by the vegetable vendors and the rice sold by the rice shop are all provided by Taoyuan. Now Taoyuan Farmhouse has officially changed its name to Taoyuan Shanshui Family, including Taoyuan Vegetable Base, Taoyuan Animal Husbandry, Taoyuan Fruit Forest, Taoyuan Town, etc.
Tourists think that this name is more poetic and picturesque, and it seems more grand. Except for the 30,000 tourists who are fixed in Taoyuan Town to do tasks and go to nearby villages and towns from time to time, the Taoyuan Inn is still full of people, and they can’t go to Taoyuan Town. , at least they can come and eat here.
Lu Yangze told Li Guoguo a long time ago, as long as these customers are eating hazelnuts and are not short of money, no matter how much they have in stock, they will be emptied, but causing other rice and animal husbandry is not in line with the purpose of Taoyuan, but the price increase Not suitable either.
"Boss, I think we should find another place to grow rice. I think vegetables are enough." Lu Yangze asked Li Guoguo.
Li Guoguo is sitting in the office, and on the computer, he can directly click on all the surveillance cameras in Taoyuan Town, which are arranged in street inns and other places. In addition to the home where everyone rests, there are also people from the S City Police Force who are dressed as police officers outside. Patrol around.
"Where do you want to grow?" Li Guoguo asked without raising his eyes.
"Of course there are people who are worried about this." Lu Yangze saw Li Guoguo raised his eyebrows and looked at him, and said with a smile: "The people from the Agriculture Bureau are planning to help us promote it. I think the most important point for these planters is that apart from the franchise fee, we have A certain amount of priority purchase rights, first satisfy our sales network, and also ensure that the rice they grow will not be purchased by anyone."
Lu Yangze's words are basically exaggerated. In fact, Taoyuan rice has fallen into a stage of short supply recently. Since returning from the exchange meeting, Taoyuan rice has become the national rice supply, and people from the city government even buy it from them. It was said that it was transported to Kyoto to entertain foreign delegations.
As long as you have something to do with Taoyuanmi, no matter it’s true or not, the sales will go up. Recently, Nie’s legal department is really busy. Although Taoyuanmi has already registered its name, you can’t stop the high-defense people. It can't stop those who quietly sell second-hand Taoyuan rice on the Internet, which makes people laugh and cry.
"Have you been in contact with them?" Li Guoguo asked curiously. I haven't seen him running away for a while, so this matter is settled?
Lu Yangze sat across from Li Guoguo, shrugged his shoulders and said, "You have to know, how much interest has been ceded by us saying that we are willing to cooperate? Of course they are afraid that we will go back on this kind of thing, so naturally we have to sign the name as soon as possible." But what I mean is that the land in province D is fertile, let’s plant it in a few provinces, and if it’s similar to ours, expand it to the south, where two crops a year is also good.”
Li Guoguo nodded, the nutrient solution provided by the system has been used up, and now they have also recruited a team of people through Nie's to study the ingredients of Taoyuan rice and nutrient solution, basically restored, the taste is not good, except for the high cost Besides, there are basically no weaknesses.
"This experiment is to see how the Taoyuan rice grown from the weakened version of the nutrient solution is. According to Xiao Zhong in the laboratory, the difference should not be big."
Lu Yangze was a little bit worried while analyzing it. Of course, he was also very concerned about this matter. The people in the Agriculture Bureau said that if he wanted to completely replicate the results of Taoyuan, he was afraid that those farmers would not earn enough to spend. The weakened version would save a lot of money. , but the taste will be worse.
The people in the Ministry of Agriculture all expressed that there must be a difference between the carefully cultivated ones produced in the laboratory and the extensively cultivated ones. They have all eaten Taoyuan rice. It is no exaggeration to say that the taste is excellent, but it really needs to be spread all over the country. , they also find it a bit difficult.
As it is now, Taoyuan is willing to continue to improve and save money for the majority of farmers. They all feel that this is okay. As long as it tastes like 80% of Taoyuan rice, the sales volume will not worry at all.
Li Guoguo nodded, and said to Lu Yangze: "I'll be off work in a while, just watch and call me if you have any questions."
Lu Yangze was stunned for a few seconds, how could Li Guoguo get off work so early before?
"Boss, you are leaving get off work so early..." Before Lu Yangze finished speaking, he remembered that Nie Yunqing and Nie Shide had already returned to Shanquan Village. Isn't it clear where the boss is going?
"I'm going to see Grandpa Nie, and I'll bring them some food. They've only been back for a few days, and there's nothing at home." Li Guoguo felt his cheeks turn red, and this was an excuse.
Lu Yangze smiled, and didn't mean to run on Li Guoguo, he said softly, "Boss, go quickly, if it wasn't for the busy work here, I would also visit Mr. Nie and the others."
Li Guoguo smiled, "Grandpa Nie also said the same thing. He told me about you and praised you for being careful and thoughtful. He feels relieved when you are with me."
Lu Yangze replied: "I have also learned a lot in Nie's, otherwise, boss, would you take a liking to me?"
Li Guoguo gave him a sideways look with a smile, shook his head and didn't say much to him, and went out to find Nie Shide by bicycle.
Nie Shide and Nie Yunqing just arrived yesterday, and today they are busy cutting the ribbon. There are not many people at home. The old man likes to be clean, so there are still many things that have not been packed and are still in the hall.
Seeing Li Guoguo coming, Nie Shide quickly waved her over and said, "This time, Yunqing's parents know that you and him are busy with your business recently and don't have time to take care of your body, so they bought a lot of good things for me. I brought it here for you, and told me to eat to make up my body, and I must meet you during the Chinese New Year."
Li Guoguo really didn't expect to be able to hide from Nie Yunqing, but also couldn't hide from Nie Yunqing's parents. Suddenly, there was a feeling that he was destined to face it. Taking a deep breath, Li Guoguo pursed his lips and smiled before saying:
"Well, when I come to visit my aunt and uncle again, I don't know what they like and what to buy."
Nie Shide waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "Hey, we are all our own people, so we can buy whatever we want. Yunqing's mother likes flowers and plants, and Yunqing's father likes the four treasures of the study. Just buy as you see."
Li Guoguo held back his laughter. Grandpa Nie had clearly stated both of their preferences when he said that. He didn't just buy it casually, but he wanted to buy it for his **** heart.
