Chapter 85 It is finally opened

Luhua Village was not poor, but still, only a small number of young people wanted to engage in agriculture. Yearning for big cities was human nature, of course, Zhou Yu was an exception.

In those nearby villages and towns, only Wutong Village had discovered a new way. But after they developed a service chain, other villages, that wanted to copy what they did, would not be able to compete with them at all.

Now that the rural amusement park, which was developed by Zhou Yu and managed by Zhou Fu seemed to be a new way, many other villages were waiting to see the result.

After taking over the business, Zhou Fu immediately launched an operation to find suitable locations in the water park to set up temporary booths, and customized a number of uniforms in the city. After roughly making some adjustments, the originally unprofessional vendors looked much better now.

This was all he could do for this year. By next year, it would definitely be completely different.

In Luhua Primary School, the atmosphere in this year’s final exam was much tenser than before, after a month and a half of intensive learning, all the students were extremely nervous as if they were facing a powerful enemy. Especially the students in the sixth grade. This was their last summer vacation in Luhua village, whether they could go to brother Yu’s amusement park for free or not, it would all depend on this exam.

The results of the exam would naturally make some people happy and some people sad. Those, who were qualified to get visitor’s cards, would cheer loudly. Those, who were not qualified, would have long sad faces. The saddest students would be those, who reached the 11th place. Almost every one of them couldn’t help but think that if they had worked harder, they would have probably been qualified now.

Most of the merit students were among the top students, so there were many repetitions, but there were also exceptions. For example, although little Rat’s results did not enter the top ten of the year, because he had a huge improvement in his grades, coupled with the good performance in this year’s sports competition, he was rewarded as a merit student. He was so happy that he even danced in the classroom.

Summer vacation was coming soon, and the temporary employees of the water park were also finally gathered together. All of them were local students. Working in the water park during the summer vacation, not only were they able to make money, but they were also able to visit the park for free. So it was a quite good job.

Because there was only a water park in the amusement park at present, so there was no entrance fee for the amusement park. Everyone could get in. But there was no sceneries to be seen when people got in. There was just filled flat land everywhere. People couldn’t even find a tree. If visitors didn’t pay for the water park entrance fee, they would be blocked from entering the swimming pool, let alone the indoor wave pool.

A line of stalls and wooden tables and chairs, that was hurriedly set up, formed a rest area where people could sit at will, but people would still have to pay for the food if they want to eat them.

Fruit juice, ice creams and all kinds of cold drinks were children’s favorites. There were also many local snacks. In normal times, the food and snacks in those stalls would not look very special. But when they were gathered together and displayed in a neat line, surprisingly, it gave people a feeling that they were very delicious.

All vendors were uniformly dressed, it immediately gave people a sense of professionalism. Therefore when buying something to eat, they wouldn’t be that worried.

After a few days of hard work, Zhou Fu let out a sigh of relief, everything had been arranged properly. All it left now, was to see how many customers he could attract. However, he did not hold much hope for this, because the advertising work had not been done at all, and now it was already too late to do it. At most, it would attract people who lived nearby, it would not be possible to attract people who lived further than that.

At the beginning of the summer vacation, Little Paradise amusement park was also officially opened.

Because of Zhou Yu’s strong objection, there was no opening ceremony. They just set off some firecrackers. At first, there was no one at all. After noon, people gradually appeared. But most of them were the students who held visitor cards and the people they brought in.

Since it was a trial opening, it would naturally be operating at a loss. As long as someone showed up, that would be fine.

Groups of children naturally came to the amusement park for fun. They collected free water guns, bumper boats or other water toys, took a hot bath in the washing area, and then jumped into the pool vigorously.

The wave pool also had its first batch of customers, but strangely, the beach area was more popular with children. Gathering in twos and threes, many children were having fun playing the sand.

Zhou Yu stayed at his old home all the time. The children had gone to the amusement park, it was much quieter in his yard now. The new houses in the park were still under construction, and there were construction sites everywhere inside the park. It was not suitable for living at the moment. After some time when the project was completed, then he would consider moving in.

In the evening,

Zhou Fu came to Zhou Yu with a long face. It seemed that the selling situation was not satisfactory. He wanted to talk with Zhou Yu, but he didn’t realize that it was time for the animated movies to be shown in the yard.

The children came to see the movie on time, so he could only sit by the side and wait for the movie to end.

“I mean, it is the first day of the opening, and you are the boss. You are supposed to be there. But look at you. You are still playing movies here. Isn’t it a bit too relaxed?”

Zhou Fu was seriously overwhelmed by Zhou Yu’s unconcerned attitude. It was millions of investment, how could he be so relaxed. Was he too confident or there was something wrong with his head?

Generally, if any business owner acted like this, their business would be bound to fail. Although there were exceptions, Zhou Fu did not believe that such exceptions would occur in a person who lived in seclusion in a village.

“But there is Uncle Fu? What’s the need for me to appear?”

Zhou Yu was telling the truth. The weather was getting hotter now, he began to wear his old beach trunks and T-shirt. Without careful observation, people would only think that he was an ordinary park visitor, not a boss. On the contrary, Zhou Fu was wearing a suit, and his shrewd demeanor of a successful businessman completely destroyed Zhou Yu’s lazy look.

“Stop smiling!... Sigh, the sells were not good. Apart from the student visitors you invited, there were only a hundred people who really spent money to come in and play. There were very few membership applications or summer discount card applications. After hearing all of this, are you still not nervous?”

After saying that, he took a glance at Zhou Yu. But he didn’t expect that Zhou Yu’s face didn’t have any movement at all, and he was still packing the projector slowly.

Helplessly, Zhou Fu continued, “That’s today’s turnover. I am thinking if we can make use of the night time to generate some profit. What do you think about the pool party? Nowadays, don’t all young people like to have birthday parties or something like that.”

“If there are parties in the evening, wouldn’t it be too noisy for the villagers?”

It would not be very good if the villagers’ rest was affected by the pool party. So Zhou Yu’s bottom line was, that the outdoor swimming pool could host parties, but it couldn’t be too noisy and music couldn’t be too loud, indoor wave pool would have no restrictions, because the sound insulation inside was quite good. It would not cause trouble. They were all from the same village, and he didn’t want to cause troubles for other people.

Zhou Fu quickly agreed and then left to arrange it.

A competent man would always be different. They would always act very fast to get things done. Unlike Zhou Yu this lazy worm, he had a lot of ideas but he rarely did anything. Basically, he was no different than a salted fish.

The turnover of the water park was not satisfactory, but the snack stalls actually made a good profit. The Water park was like when there was a troupe performing in the village. There were also some people didn’t get into the water, but they more or less bought some snacks to eat. Not to mention that after children finished playing, they would often feel particularly hungry, coupled with the temptation of various snacks, they would always ask their parents to buy something.

Of course, it was not a huge profit, after all, there weren’t that many people. The summer vacation was only two months. For those vendors, it was just like having a troupe staying in town for two months. So they just wanted to take this opportunity and make as much money as they could.

In short, the current situation was that the water park was operating at a loss, but it was gaining popularity, only the small vendors were making the actual profit.
