After leaving the cemetery, the two of them did not go to any attractions. Ye Ling was not interested in those. She just wanted to stay with her dear brother Ikki. Liu Jinpeng had no ready-made plans. After getting on the bus, he called a few times and canceled some of the already-set arrangements. Ye Ling listened happily next to her. Now she also partially understood what surprises Brother Ikki had hidden.

Originally, Liu Jinpeng planned to contact the cemetery manager today to hold a small wedding here without a viewer, but at least the simple flowers and cameramen always wanted it. Then he also wanted to find a resort hotel with water pavilions. He planned to spend two days with Ye Ling there without shame, but now he might have to change the place.

Ye Ling was not ashamed at all, and smiled and said, "Brother Yixiu, how did you arrange it when you were with Liu Liu and the others? It's almost OK."

"Actually, I've always felt very sorry, I'm sorry." Liu Jinpeng put down the phone and turned to look at Ye Ling's face. "I should spend more time with you, but each of you can only get a few days."

Ye Ling touched his face and said with a smile: "Brother Yixiu just likes to worry about it. What is important is his intention. Sister Xiaoyu said that we don't need you to do anything formalism. I think this sentence is right. As long as you know that I will always be your little Yezi."

Yes, Liu Jinpeng suddenly thought about it. He actually didn't have to worry too much. At this time, he just needed to enjoy the holiday with Ye Ling happily like an ordinary person. He let go of the handbrake, started the car on the road, and said to the excited Ye Ling: "Let's go, since you are here, just experience the scenery of the fish and rice town."

The area of ​​Honghu Lake is larger than that of Jiangcheng East Lake. It is close to the wharf of Xiaogang Town, and there are some open waters. In addition, there are only large areas of endless lotus leaves. At this moment, it is the junction of September and October. Except for a few that bloom late, they are still insisting on it. Most of the lotus flowers have already faded. However, September and October are the stage of the lotus pods being launched on the market, so you can see the lotus pods with their heads raised everywhere in the large lotus leaves.

There are a large number of black-sailed boats and sailed boats near the wharf of Xiaogang Town. Each boat has a boatman or boatwoman at the helm. They are not in a hurry to attract customers, but sit quietly at the bow of the boat, staring at the lake in a daze, or chatting about family matters with each other. Whenever a guest comes forward to ask for the price, they will get up and bargain, and then greet the guests with a smile on the boat and leave the port.

The good order of the wharf in Xiaogang Town is entirely due to its effective operation and management. The wharf administration has formulated a guide price and prohibited shipwives and shipmen from competing maliciously. At the same time, they also strictly limit the number of ships to avoid exceeding the number of tourists actually need. Although these measures are uncomfortable for locals, they can at least ensure that they can all have a meal and will not cause major conflicts.

When Liu Jinpeng and Ye Ling arrived at the pier, two tour groups had already arrived here. Two minibuses were parked nearby. The tour guide with small flags took the tourists to board the ship. They didn't have to negotiate the price at all, because they were looking for the bow. The so-called bow is to use their own strength to control a group of local people with black-sailed boats and unsailed boats. These people unified the prices and clothing and began to operate in a more formal joint manner.

As far as Liu Jinpeng’s perspective is concerned, the dock can completely change its business method. Issuing business licenses and using certificates to limit the number of participation is correct. However, the subsequent measures should be that the dock will charge a unified fee, issue a formal note, and then dividends will be paid based on the monthly income after deducting the management fee. It is like a regular tourism company, rather than making small fuss like this.

But this matter has nothing to do with him. He is just a tourist now. So he pulled Ye Ling to find a good-looking boatwoman and started bargaining with her. The boatwoman was wearing orchid cloth clothes, an embroidered apron, a blue headscarf wrapped around her head, and wrinkles on her face. When she smiled, she showed eight snow-white teeth. She seemed to be in her forties, but in fact she was only thirty-nine years old.

Her local dialect is a bit difficult to understand, and she struggled to listen to Mandarin. Liu Jinpeng had to say it slower, plus the numbers. He now knows why tourists are always pointing fingers when bargaining with these people. It seems that their communication skills are indeed a problem. It seems that the idea just now was very correct, and these are actually a loss. It is better to attract more customers than to have this time.

If it follows his vision, it will be a win-win situation. No, plus tourists will win three. The dock receives management fees, and the accumulated funds can increase service projects and facilities; boat ladies can avoid bargaining, and guests can leave when they come; and guests do not have to waste time to chew numbers, and what they spend money is to get regular invoices and after-sales service.

There were only two guests sitting on the sackless boat, but the boatwoman still took out an orange-red life jacket and put it on them. This is what all guests must wear, just to avoid accidents. Liu Jinpeng asked curiously in a life jacket, "Sister, did you buy this life jacket?"

The boatwoman understood this time and smiled and said, "Where did you rent it from the wharf? You just negotiated the price with me, so I went to get two pieces. Safety is the first priority."

Liu Jinpeng put on his life jacket and tied up a strap for Ye Ling, then asked the boatwoman: "How much do you rent from the wharf?"

"Five dollars per piece."

"What if I don't rent it?"

"I dare not. If someone else sees and reports it, my business will not be completed."

It is not expensive for a person to make five yuan, but this model is very difficult for Liu Jinpeng to understand. The tentless boat slowly entered the boundless lotus leaf bush. Sitting on the short boat, looking around, there were endless lotus leaves and lotus pods, as if only green and blue were left between the world.

The boat girl enthusiastically introduced the beautiful legend here, but the greedy Ye Ling only stared at the shower heads and drooled. Seeing her greedy appearance, Liu Jinpeng was also secretly amused. The boat girl also saw that the guests were not interested in the legend, so she said, "If you want to eat the lotus shower, pick it yourself. Then, you will calculate the money together, just count it, not the size." This is also a recreational project here. You can enjoy the joy of picking the shower heads yourself by the way.

Ye Ling looked at Liu Jinpeng with eyes, pouted and acted coquettishly: "Brother Yixiu, can you help me pick a few?"

Liu Jinpeng deliberately teased her: "That won't work. I pick and eat it myself, and I don't want to eat lotus seeds."

The boatwoman took the opportunity to say, "Lotus seeds are good things. Medical books say that they can 'clear the heart and wake up the spleen, nourish the spleen and stop diarrhea, nourish the heart and calm the mind and improve the eyes, nourish the middle and nourish the spirit, strengthen the spleen and stomach, stop diarrhea and strengthen the essence, benefit the kidneys and astring the essence and stop the belt, and nourish the vital energy.' You young people can clear the heart and remove freckles when they eat it, the elderly can lower blood pressure, strengthen the heart and calm the mind, and the patients can prevent and fight cancer."

Liu Jinpeng asked with a smile: "This is what you have trained, how can you remember it so clearly?"

The boatwoman smiled and said, "That's not, I don't know any medical books. I forced us to recite them with the operation certificate, but later I said it every day, so I remembered it."

No matter what Ye Ling endorses the medical book, she looked at the shower head outside the boat, reached out with guilt, then quickly retracted, and said timidly: "I'm so scared, what if I fall into the water?"

Liu Jinpeng laughed: "It's okay, you're wearing a life jacket, I'll pull you up."

Ye Ling bulged her cheeks in anger: "Brother Yixiu! You did it on purpose!"

The boatwoman hurriedly said, "It's okay, little girl, I'll support the boat a little, and you'll be able to reach it." She skillfully tilted the oars, and the boat gradually deviated from the middle channel and approached the lotus leaf bushes on one side.

Ye Ling was much more courageous now. He reached out and pulled a shower head and pulled it hard. Hey? Why didn't he move at all? Ye Ling didn't believe in evil, and pulled it hard again, but he still didn't move. Liu Jinpeng was already laughing, but he soon realized that Ye Ling was about to get angry, so he stopped laughing and grabbed the root of the shower with one hand, shook the shower head with the other hand, and picked one after another.

The boat girl said in surprise: "Wow, I didn't expect you to be so familiar with the guest. Have you learned it before?"

Liu Jinpeng laughed and said, "I have worked in other places in the south before, picking lotus pods is a tiring job."

The boatwoman nodded in agreement: "That's not the case. After picking it for a day, I felt sore in my waist and back pain, and then I cut it with scissors."

Ye Ling didn't bother to listen to what they said, so she quickly took the shower head in her hand and peeled out a few lotus seeds and stuffed them into her mouth. Her eyes immediately narrowed into a line: "Well, it's so sweet, fresh lotus seeds are delicious. Oh, it's so bitter." She was so proud that she chewed the lotus heart inside, of course she couldn't speak.

Liu Jinpeng had to peel the lotus seeds for her in a miserable way, and had to remove the lotus heart. He taught Ye Ling a lesson while peeling it: "Do you know? The lotus heart is a good product for clearing fire and removing poison. You'd better eat it with your heart, so that it's the most nutritious."

Unfortunately, Ye Ling just nodded, by the way, he just refused to eat lotus hearts. She had a lot of fun eating the unintentional lotus seeds that Liu Jinpeng had peeled. The boat girl no longer disturbed them, and looked at the little lovers together and sang me.

Liu Jinpeng peeled lotus seeds quickly, and removed lotus hearts faster. After peeling the lotus seeds, he poked them with an iron rod as thick as a pencil core, and the lotus seeds were made out, and the lotus seeds could still be kept roughly intact. This iron rod is very short and is an auxiliary tool brought on the master key. It has played a little role now. However, no matter how fast he was, he was not as fast as Ye Ling's eating. Soon a lotus pod was eaten up. A small pile of lotus hearts and leaves were not eaten, so Liu Jinpeng had to swallow it himself.

After picking seven or eight lotus pods, Ye Ling ate four, and the rest of Liu Jinpeng did not allow her to eat it again. If she had diarrhea again, it would be boring at all. Ye Ling was also scared by diarrhea and reluctantly put away the shower head. In the end, she picked nine of them, which cost five yuan each, which was simply too cheap.
