Xu He also had some experience. Generally speaking, there were the most people in the city during festivals. On normal days, except for winter, the city people liked to go out to have fun outside the city, either to stand tall and see far, or go to the temple to burn incenses and eat vegetarian meals, experienced the life in Buddhist temple, and sometimes enjoyed the flowers in spring and experienced harvesting in autumn.

It was just the people in the city  liked to enjoy mulberry farming in the nearest villages outside the city, unless there was temple fair they would rarely come so far.

Zhang Fangyuan said: "I brought some wine and groceries from the city back to supply the tea shed. I heard people from Zaojiao Village say that two years ago Hongshi Village started planting flowers in the village, such as crabapple and winter jasmine. Ah, their village also has a lot of peaches and plums. In the early spring, they invited two scholars and storytellers to write poems and articles. They boasted so much that many people from the city will go to their village and enjoy the flowers, and these people passing by and resting in our tea shed."

"Although I haven't been there to see it with my own eyes, I heard that the people in the city who went there also praised that people in Hongshi Village really have done a good job. The village is not only full of flowers, there are also paper kites for them to play, the land for the tourists to plant the flowers by themselves, and they also can buy flowers. In short, there are so many tricks with flowers. This year, no one in the city went to ride horse and play polo in the outskirts of the city, and there are not many people in the inns. They all went to Hongshi Village after hearing the news. "

Xu He, a villager, couldn't help being fascinated when he heard it, let alone those rich and idle people in the city.

"Hongshi Village is really capable of tossing around. But since the land is used to grow flowers, so did they not plant crops?"

Zhang Fangyuan said: "Why didn't they plant them anymore, it's just that they didn't plant as much as in the previous years, and they also went to the county government to go through the formalities, opened up some new wasteland. The county master even praised Hongshi Village, and this morning is even more prosperous. "

He sighed again: "It's a pity that there is nothing outstanding in our village, and the village chief said the same thing when drinking tea at the tea shed today. There are several fish ponds and there are three families raising silkworm. The village has a little of everything but not much of anything. If you want to let the villagers together growing mulberry, I’m afraid they won’t be willing, so there is nothing to publicize for the city people to watch and have fun. "

Xu He said: "It’s not that Hongshi Village has been prepared for several years. If you do it sincerely, it’s not impossible."

"But this is also something that the village chief should worry about. I think he can do something, so that our village will not be left behind. "

Zhang Fangyuan said: "Back then, Hongshi Village was the poorest village in the ten miles and eight villages of Siyang county. Now there are so many tourists visit their village, it's not like it used to be. In addition, there are more tourists coming out of the city and passing by our tea shed, and we also have a lot of business. "

Xu He's eyebrows twitched slightly, seeing how excited he was, he couldn't help asking, "Do you have any ideas?"

"I have some ideas. If it can be done, let's expand the tea shed and build more buildings, its best to build an inn. The land on the left and right of the official road is wide, and there are mountains behind it, which can be opened completely. "

It sounded very good, but he was afraid that no one would live there,  the location of their tea shed could be called neither good nor bad.

Although the location of their tea shed was in an intersection point and the best resting place, it was not too far from Siyang after all. It took two or three hours to reach the city on foot, but if you drove carriage, you could reach the city in two hours at a slow speed or one and a half hours at a fast speed.

With such a distance, few people would stay, unless they didn't have a carriage, they passed the tea shed in the afternoon and couldn't enter  the city when it got dark, and they would stay in the inn for the night.

Of course Zhang Fangyuan knew this truth, so if he wanted to build an inn, he had to find a way to make people stay outside willingly.

"Ah oh... ah."

The children's milk voice came from the room, the two stopped talking. Zhang Fangyuan hurriedly washed his hands and dried them, then raised his legs and went into the room to look at the children: "Are you hungry again? "

The two treasures were lying flat on the bed, they were swinging their fleshy arms and legs today, and the little quilt covering them when they were sleeping had been kicked down by the two together.

"They were sleeping just now, but now they all woke up together." In the past, either the elder brother fell asleep and the younger brother woke up, or the younger brother fell asleep and the elder brother woke up. It would be easier like this, because he only needed to hug and coax the child who was awake.

Zhang Fangyuan could hold the two cubs at once, holding one child in each hand without any pressure. Dabao wouldn't move around when he was hugged by his big daddy, but Erbao was a bit naughty, he would pinch here and there with his little hands while being held by his big daddy, and his mouth spit out bubbles. Xu He knelt down and wiped Erbao's mouth: "Ruili loves to drool so much."

"It's fine as long as he doesn't spit the milk." Zhang Fangyuan looked at the little ger who was kicking wildly, he said: "You are so naughty, is it because you like to kick since you were in the stomach? Look at your elder brother, he doesn't move randomly like you."

"Ah oh."

Zhang Fangyuan teased the children, he hugged and dragged them around. Erbao was a bit naughty, but his energy was low, and his energy was spent quickly. He fell asleep again before Zhang Fangyuan held him for a long time. On the other hand, Dabao didn't move around very much, he opened his eyes much more often, so big daddy would hug him for a while, but even if no one would hug him. Put him on the bed, and he wouldn’t cry as long as there was someone looked at him.

If the younger brother fell asleep and he was awake alone, and there was no one outside the bed, he would cry.

At noon, the wet nurse came to feed the child. The two treasures were full and they lay down on the bed without much movement. The sun at noon was comfortably warm and made people sleepy. The couple coaxed the children to sleep in the room, and then took a nap for a while.
