Chapter 0348 Rhododendron Sea
As April enters, the temperature in Zhongpai Township is rising continuously. During the day, the temperature reaches more than 20 degrees Celsius, and the lowest temperature at night exceeds 10 degrees Celsius. The most comfortable season in the village is beginning to come.
The increasing sunshine time has given the vegetation around the village more energy, and they are ushering in the best season of the year.
After the peach blossom forest in the farm orchard entered its peak flowering period, the alpine rhododendrons all over the mountains began to show their own style to people, and the colorful flowers turned the entire Nanwu Mountain into a sea of flowers.
Alpine rhododendrons, alpine evergreen shrubs or small tree plants of the Rhododaceae family, have a tree height of about 3 meters in its natural growth state, and grows in fir forests or on grass slopes along mountain slopes at an altitude of 2500 to 4000 meters.
In the southeastern region of Jiangxi, alpine rhododendrons can be seen everywhere. Their flowering period starts in April and continues to October, becoming one of the local characteristics.
In Jinfoshan, Nanchuan, due to the early development of the tourism industry, Jinfoshan rhododendrons are very famous and attract a large number of tourists to go up the mountain to enjoy the flowers every year.
In Zeng Zhi's view, the altitude span of the southern Wushan area ranges from 1,000-3,000 meters, and the rapidly rising altitude has also created a variety of plant species. The resources of alpine azaleas are even more than those of Jinfoshan, and they have unique natural conditions.
According to aerial photography and mapping by the surveying and mapping department of the Gucheng District, the area of alpine azaleas in the Nanwu Mountain even exceeds 10,000 acres.
This is not to count those that are just scattered with azaleas, but to truly scattered azalea forests.
However, most of these areas are in the deep depths of the more dangerous Nanwu Mountain. On the safe periphery and even in the safer middle, there are not many large cuckoo forests, which are only two or three thousand acres.
But despite this, this is already a rare large-scale.
The most rare thing is that because Nanwu Mountain is nearly 3,000 meters above sea level, in April, the top of the mountain is still covered with ice and snow. Therefore, tourists are fortunate to see the magnificent scene of the sea of flowers on one side and the sea of snow on the other, and even the unique scenery of fiery red flowers blooming in the snow.
Therefore, the sea of alpine azaleas has become a highlight of the external publicity of Sanlong Lake Scenic Area.
At this time, not only the citizens of the ancient city will come to enjoy the flowers, but tourists from the main city and even outside the city will also come to enjoy this rare beauty.
According to statistics from the Exiled Xianju Tourism Company, since the end of March, the number of tourists arriving in the scenic area has been increasing every day, and the average time for tourists to stay in the scenic area has reached three days.
At the same time, the Exiled Xianju Tourism Company and the villages and residential areas in Zhongpai Township jointly launched a series of activities including hunting, horse riding, outdoor barbecue, etc., which were favored by tourists, and the guests became more and more generous in paying money.
……………………
It can be foreseen that as the beautiful scenery of spring gradually emerges, the number of tourists entering the Sanlong Lake Scenic Area every day may exceed 1,000, which will provide a very good warm-up for the May Day Golden Week.
To this end, Zeng Zhi specially added 10 million in publicity funds, allowing Huang Yuanyu to launch a new round of advertising offensive in major media in Jiangdu and CCTV, gradually hyping up the May Day Golden Week.
From the current perspective, the Exiled Xianju Tourism Company has invested more than 100 million yuan in the Sanlong Lake Scenic Area, but it has not yet earned a penny, which seems to be a bit unworthy of the loss.
However, both Zeng Zhi and the management of the Exiled Xianju Tourism Company headed by Huang Yuanyu knew in their hearts that such investment was essential in the cultivation of scenic spots.
As long as the Sanlong Lake Scenic Area receives more than 500,000 tourists each year, the Exilion Xianju Tourism Company can earn a large amount of income through the Exilion Xianju Hotel. It only takes three years to recover all investments, and the next few decades will be profitable.
From this perspective, the tourism industry is actually a profitable business, but scarce natural resources and huge investment in the early stage are important bottlenecks that restrict the birth of emerging attractions.
According to the situation revealed by Chen Yongping, since 2010, the tourism industry in the southeastern region of Jiangdu, which has relatively rich tourism resources such as ancient city, Sizhou, and Longshui, has been absorbing foreign capital every year, showing a rapid growth trend.
More and more consortiums, investors are optimistic about the development prospects of the southeastern Jiangdu region, opening new attractions, developing leisure and vacation industries and even investing in real estate.
I believe that with the success of the Exiled Xianju Tourism Company, more and more foreign capital will pour into the ancient city tourism industry.
……………………
April 12th, the 24th day of the second lunar month, it is advisable to consecrate, travel, trade, and open the market...
The village in April is the best season of the year. The brilliant sunshine, warm breeze, and the azaleas everywhere make the entire Sanlong Lake area extremely beautiful.
When he woke up early in the morning, Zeng Zhi hurried to the Exiled Immortal Hotel after breakfast.
Today is the opening ceremony of the Exiled Xianju Hotel, and he, the largest shareholder, cannot be absent.
After more than half a year of intense construction, the Exiled Xianju Hotel was finally completed in early April, when the tourist peak was about to reach its peak. Ninety-nine detached villas are arranged in a scattered manner on several hills, which looks very beautiful.
Now, it is time to choose a good time to open the business.
Walking on the road, the streets were cleaned up. In some places, villagers used mountain spring water to rinse the road surface, spotlessly clean.
This is also a tradition in the village. During major festivals and when distinguished guests are approaching, the gates will be opened to release water. According to the village's scheduling pattern, mountain springs will be used to flush the road surface.
Because the greening around the village is done well and the road surface is often cleaned, even if the strong wind blows, there are few scenes of dust everywhere in the sky.
This is also an important reason why many people who are suffering from fog in the city prefer villages.
Most of the villagers changed into decent clothes and rushed to the hotel to support them. After all, 10% of the shares of the Exiled Xianju Hotel belongs to all the villagers. If the hotel is well managed, everyone will benefit.
On the way, when I met Zeng Zhi’s villagers, they all greeted him kindly and were quite enthusiastic.
The villagers are not fools, so they naturally know that the changes in the village over the past year stem from Zeng Zhi's investment, and Zeng Zhi's exiled Xianju Tourism Company and the farm have given the villagers a lot of benefits, so everyone is not a ungrateful bastard.
Due to the development of the scenic spot, the general income of villagers has increased by three to five times.
In the past eight months, each person has earned at least 6,000 yuan, and the family's income has increased by tens of thousands.
