Chapter 209 Asking for an idea

The three grandparents and grandsons followed Old Man Wu to the reservoir together. They saw that at the east end of the reservoir, six or seven people were squeezed out on a platform where each village specially carried water back to eat.

This platform was made by Liu Yujin, who spent money to find someone to do for the safety of the villagers. There is no need to do it again on the uphill and downhill road. This has been taken for more than ten or twenty years. They have become accustomed to it, but it is safer than the new ones.

Old man Wu pointed at them and said to Liu Baiquan: "It's them! If I only fish for this afternoon, I won't go to find you. I'm following their words. If I want to fish here for several days, I can't help but tell you."

Cao Xiang didn't wait for grandpa to speak, so she said first: "Thank you, Mr. Wu! Don't say anything you and my grandpa don't let fish. I know how to deal with this matter!"

Old Man Wu looked at Liu Baiquan, and Liu Baiquan nodded at him: "Well! Let my granddaughter take care of this matter!"

When they arrived at the Dongtou Dam, Liu Baiquan and Old Man Wu stood tall on it, Cao Xiang and Tao Xiang slowly walked down the slope. They walked to a few fishing uncles and grandpas behind them, and looked at their net bags hanging in the water. There were really a lot of fish struggling inside, and they splashed out big water from time to time.

"Ye! Uncle (pronounced here on baibai, which is a vague name for being unable to control one's age and not being able to call an uncle or an uncle). Can you really catch fish?"

The person who was asked looked back and saw an eight or nine-year-old girl looking at him with a smile. This was just asking him. He smiled and replied, "There are many fish here, it's easy to catch! Did the uncle in a white vest see it? He just caught a big grass carp weighing at least five kilograms."

"The fish in this reservoir are raised by people, of course there are too many. However, after you catch fish, have you ever thought about giving some compensation to the fish farmers?"

A very old grandfather outside the left hand was busy responding: "Miss, are you the owner of this fish pond? We have planned to compensate, bringing a lot of cigarettes and wine, and candy in the car! If you are the owner, you will take it back later!"

He spoke very quietly, and Liu Baiquan and Old Man Wu above also heard it. Liu Baiquan wanted to say a few words to refuse, but suddenly he thought that his granddaughter told him not to say anything, so he endured it and didn't say anything.

Cao Xiang couldn't help but answer: "Yes! The fish I raised at home are so delicious. Have you heard that you ran so far to fish?"

Someone with his right hand laughed out loud and asked, "How did the little girl know that we ran all the way? Then tell me how far we ran? Guess where we came from?"

Cao Xiang curled her lips, "Tsk! Don't look at me as young as me, just bully my IQ! Mr. Wu, who helped me see fish, said, "Who are relatives of Huangerzhuang, you are from the provincial capital."

"Hahaha! Lao Huang! Look at you, you're laughed at by a little girl! Go back and take the things in the car for this girl to come home." Needless to say, the person who said this was the heads of several people. Cao Xiang quickly stopped him and said, "Uncle (baibai)! Don't worry, I'll come, either to ask you for something or to ask you for advice."

This head made a little interesting turn, "Oh~" and turned around and looked at Cao Xiang, then turned around and stared at the floating on the water surface, asking, "What are you trying to get?"

Cao Xiang's mood was not affected by this person's neglect at all, and she said calmly: "That's right. After spring this year, there are many uncles and grandpas who like you who love fishing come to fish. Some people take the fish and leave after fishing, and some people will give some compensation like you. Originally, my family didn't plan to make any compensation. They were all from the villagers. What's the point of catching a few fish and catching teeth! But I don't know if it's because my fish is easy to catch, and then it adds deliciousness, and the reservoir is crowded every day.

Today I heard that there are guests from such a far distance to the provincial capital who came here and came here for fishing. I had an idea in my mind. You said: If my platform is expanded to both sides and built a special fishing corridor. Then build a few houses from Wu Laozhuang, which is closest to the reservoir, to provide you with food, rest, and things to use. Then charge some fees. Do you think that city people like you would be willing to come here so far away to spend this money?”

Everyone around him turned their heads to look at Cao Xiang in surprise, secretly shocked if this was a child?! The other person also looked back at Cao Xiang unexpectedly, nodded and said, "The little girl is not old, and her brain is very useful. If she collects money, she will definitely come here, but the charges cannot be too high. If she feels that she is slaughtered, she will definitely not come again."

This is true! Cao Xiang nodded silently and said specifically to the charges: "Originally, I planned to charge how much money I would charge alone a day, even food, drink, and accommodation to provide fish food, bait, and no matter how many fish I caught. However, now after hearing what you said, I feel that such a general charge is unreasonable."

Those people were even more surprised. It seemed that the idea was really what the child thought of himself. They didn't look at the floating on the water anymore, but looked at Cao Xiang, and the meaning in their eyes was, what were you going to charge?

The other person asked with a smile: "Do you have any other charging methods besides this?"

"Of course there is! I can charge money separately! Fish are sold by pounds, and the amount of fish caught is charged as much as you pound. Eating is the same as a restaurant, and the amount of vegetables you ordered is charged. However, fish and bait can be given for free!" Cao Xiang was halfway through the speech, and sighed and changed the subject: "Hi! But! The idea is good, I'm afraid. It's too biased here, and no one is willing to come and consume. It's useless to invest!"

"Little girl! That's not necessarily true! If your family is really as you said, providing food, accommodation and better conveniences, I can bring a lot of friends over during holidays." The other end paused, looked around, and added: "It will be more people than today!"

Someone next to him said, "I can bring my friends here too, but your family needs to be hygienic. If it is black and dirty, then we will do it once and we will definitely not come again next time."

"Lao Wu! You really can't break it! Isn't this the countryside like this? How can there be so many things to pay attention to?!"

"Old Zhang is right. Come and catch fish occasionally, just make do. It's not a long-term home, so you have to pay attention to this and that."
