Chapter 37 Touring the Lake

It was a white pompet, probably as long as a chopstick, and was swimming freely under a green lotus leaf. Next to it was a water plant that swung in the water like a willow swaying in the spring breeze. Ren Ziwei was about to stretch out her hand in the water, but the fish was alert. When her tail swayed, it disappeared into the flocy aquatic plants.

"Ha...he... girl, don't want to catch fish when you see a fish, be careful to fall into the water. The water here is clear, and you can see many fish you can reach with just one hand. In fact, it is hidden very deeply in the water!" The boss of the boat smiled honestly and kindly reminded Ren Ziwei.

"Has anyone fallen down?" Ren Ziwei asked curiously.

"Ha...he...why aren't there? Otherwise, why are you going to wear life jackets? If you encounter someone who doesn't know how to water and falls off while picking flowers or holding fish, it will be very troublesome!"

"What I mean is that your life jacket is too expensive. It costs five yuan to rent it casually. And your ticket has not changed. You just have a broken fence on the small dock, put a broken table and a big umbrella, and each person costs twenty yuan. It is said to be a ticket, but I can't even find a ticket after paying it, and I don't even have a reimbursement certificate. I remember that there was nothing so much trouble when I came last time." When the boss of the boat talked about the life jacket, Xiaopang interjected. Xiaopang remembered that when the four people in their dormitory came here together, except for renting a boat, there was no other money. At that time, renting a small boat like this, 50 yuan would allow the boss of the boat to take you to swim in Baishapu for most of the day. When someone was really good, he would invite you to his house for a meal. That was the second year of high school.

When Xiaopang heard what he said, the boss of the ship seemed to have a layer of oil on his coppery face, and he seemed a little aggrieved. It can be seen that the boss of the ship is a real person.

"We can't do anything, it's all stipulated above!" Looking at Xiaopang and the young men, the boat was carrying a small boat and shuttled through the lotus leaves, while opening the clip. "In the past, I didn't charge any tickets when I came to Baishapu. Our family lived nearby. After this day, I would just use this boat to carry people and plant them once or twice. There was also a hundred and eighty yuan. I had a free time and made a lot of money. It was much better than the days when I got up early and went to bed late to dig up lotus roots! But later, alas..."

Seeing the boss sighing, Xiaopang and Skinny Monkey's curiosity was completely aroused. Ren Ziwei and Fan Fangfang both opened their eyes wide. On the boat, only Long Liexue seemed to be attracted by the scenery around here. Looking at the lotus leaves that kept floating past their faces, they did not pay attention to what the boss said.

"What happened later?" Skinny Monkey continued to ask.

"Later!" The boss of the ship smiled bitterly, with a little self-deprecating, "Later, this is what you saw. Someone came from above and said that it would be impossible to do it like us. He said that it was necessary to make rational use of ecological resources. Anyway, it was just a lot of nonsense about those official articles. Later, there was the broken umbrella and the broken table, and there was a ticket for each person for twenty yuan!"

Xiaopang smiled, "It's great, as the saying goes, if you don't care for yourself, you will be punished by heaven and earth! If you can collect more tickets, you will also have more pockets. It's a pity that you can come up with such a solution."

"Pocket drum? Blow up! There are more people coming to play now, but we make less money than before!"

"How could it be?"

"In the past, everyone started their own business. As long as they leaned on the small dock, they would not worry about no one coming. Now, since they started collecting tickets, they are not afraid of you to make jokes. We can't make a penny of ticket money!" The boss of the boat said, and gently snooped the bamboo pole, and the bow of the boat turned in a direction and slid towards a place with the most lush lotus leaves.

"How could this happen? Can you still fly if you don't share the tickets? " Xiaopang asked incredible questioning.

"Why don't you fly? The money I can get now is to calculate the rent of your life jackets based on the head, each person is five yuan. The five of you who I took are only twenty-five yuan, which is more than twice as much as before! We don't have a penny of the ticket you pay now!"

"What about the tickets?"

"Of course, the ticket money was taken by the person who collected the tickets!"

"Oh! So that's it." Xiaopang looked at the big ship with relief expression, and said with a smile, "I said you, the boss of the ship, are too unkind. You are guarding such a treasure land as Baishapu. If you don't say it, you can't think of it if the government collects some money. Look outside, not other places, just Robin, there are still many places that do not have roads, and there are still no primary schools in the villages. If you want to build roads and primary schools, isn't it all the government paying for it?"

Xiaopang is telling the truth. In a place like Robin, which is not rich, in some people's homes, they can't even light up electric lights. It's not new to some half-grown dolls to run more than ten miles to school. Xiaopang's father donated money to build an elementary school in a poor village. The name of the school is "Kezhou Primary School". For the name of this school, Xiaopang was often made fun of by the thin monkeys.

After hearing Xiaopang's words, the boss of the boat was a little excited. He stood at the bow of the boat and unconsciously waved the bamboo pole in his hand, causing the hull to shake. The ripples caused by the shaking of the boat swung far away in the clear lake water. Several small fish swimming nearby were so shocked that they suddenly reached the bottom of the water.

"If the money is taken by the government to build roads and schools, not to mention that I still have twenty-five yuan to carry you like this now, that's a little less. As long as it can be better than when I was fishing before, I'm willing! But do you think the ticket money was taken by the government to do good things?"

Xiaopang was a little surprised, "Didn't you just say that people from above will do this? Then weren't the money for these tickets taken away by the above?"

"The person from above is right. It tells us that we can't be like before in the future. The one who makes this ticket is not the government!"

"Who is that?"

"It was done by privately. The man's surname is Huang. I don't know much about the specifics. It's just that they seem to have a very tough backstage in the county. They are the nephew of a high-ranking official in the county. To be honest, I was not convinced at the beginning. Why could he pull the tiger skin to make a big banner, get a broken umbrella and set a table here and collect tickets? Baishapu is not his family. Several of us went to the village to sue first, but the people in the village said they couldn't control it. As a result, we went to the county again and ran all the yamen in the county. But the men in the county all pushed and made five things. They didn't bother with you. We wanted to find the county magistrate. We heard that he was not bad, but the guards at the county government gate knew that we were looking for the county magistrate for this and didn't let us in at all. We stayed at the county government gate for two days, but we didn't even see a single hair of the county magistrate!"

"What about it later?" After hearing the boss of the ship said this, Ren Ziwei and Fan Fangfang began to care.

"Later, of course we couldn't give up so much. We wrote a letter from Lianming to sue it, but guess what, the letter we wrote was hitting the county. People came from the county and there were several big blocks. We explained to us that this was a project for tourism resource development in the county. But in fact, if you don't invest half a penny, you just get a broken table and collect tickets! All the tickets collected are in your private pocket."

"Oh, then what were you planning?" asked the skinny monkey.

"At first everyone made up their minds. You take your tickets and I take my customers. We have nothing to do with each other. So what if you have a background? If I don't hang you, what can you do with me? You want to collect tickets, right? Then you go and collect them. After all, this Baishapu is from the country, and we won't lose hair. If any fool wants to pay the tickets for you, we won't stop them. If the people who come to this Baishapu don't take our boat to visit this lake, then he will be in vain. If such a big Baishapu, if he can't get on the boat but cannot get on the boat, then he will be the same as on the shore!"

"Oh! Then what's going on now?"

"Hey!" the boat boss sighed, "Why can't I help but nag? As I said at the beginning, someone from above told us that we can't attract customers like before. If we want to attract customers, we have to manage them in a unified manner. To put it bluntly, we have to buy tickets from the guests here to get them on the boat. At the beginning, in order not to stimulate us too much, the money they gave us from the tickets was still the same as before. But later, as more and more people came here to play, our work was more and more, but the money was less and less! If you don't want to do it, you are not allowed to continue here. But in this world, all the families are counting on you. If you don't do this, can we find a piece of land to farm?"

The Boss Boss said that everyone felt a little depressed. They were originally going to have fun today, and everyone was very happy, but these bullshit things still made Xiaopang and the others angry. These things were normal, and everyone had heard of them that were a hundred times more exaggerated. But no matter how hard it was, once things really fell on their heads, their mood would be different.

I didn't feel anything when I bought the tickets just now, but now when I think about it, I really put all the money on the dog. Maybe it's better to hit the dog than this.

As before, the first person to scold Xiaopang when he heard this kind of thing was Xiaopang, regardless of whether there was a girl present. "It would be fine if you didn't say it, the more I said it, the more I was worth the hundred dollars. Damn, I didn't expect it to be like this, I just said, "When we came before, there was no ticket for us, and I didn't expect it to be there now. If it was handed over to the government, we would have nothing to say, but I felt really angry when I thought of handing it over to these birdmen!"

"Okay, yes, let's say less, there are girls here now!" patted Xiaopang's shoulder, and Shouhou comforted, "You don't have anything to be overthinking. If you want to blame, we can only blame us for not having a big backer or being a relative of a high-ranking official. Otherwise, we will also choose a treasure land to collect tickets. Look at how many tickets will be collected in Baishapu every day? Wait for me to ask." After resting with Xiaopang, Shouhou asked the boss of the boat.

"At the least you usually have seventy or eighty people a day. At most, especially on weekends or holidays, you can sometimes have more than two hundred people a day!"

"Look, look at this deal!" Shouhou expressed his envy with his unique exaggerated voice. "A ticket costs twenty, that is, if you count at least seventy people a day, you will have an income of one thousand four hundred yuan. If you count at most, you will have an income of four thousand yuan on that day. How much will it take in this year? When I think about it, be good, get a broken table, get a broken umbrella, and pull a tiger skin. There will be at least one hundred and eight hundred million yuan this year. This deal is really cost-effective!"

Looking at the look on the skinny monkey's face, Fan Fangfang was really angry and she twisted the skinny monkey hard, "Look at your death!"

The thin monkey screamed, which shocked several water birds in Baishapu. Fan Fangfang was shocked. She didn't use much force. After the thin monkey screamed, her face was solemn, "I decided that being an official is the most investment in the world but the most profitable. I will definitely get an official in the future. At that time, Xiaopang, I will protect you, ah...ha...ha..."

The thin monkey smiled exaggeratedly while patting Xiaopang's shoulders with an old temper, "Comrade Xiaotu, you must work hard too, don't let down the organization's trust in you!"

Xiaopang didn't say anything, and directly gave him a middle finger.

Everyone's depressed mood was much easier after the skinny monkey made such a fuss.

"Hey! Where is the boss? Why doesn't the boss sound at all? We almost forgot about the boss."

Long Liexue sat at the end of the ship. In front were Xiaopang and Shouhou, and in the middle were Ren Ziwei and Fan Fangfang. When he was listening to the boss of the ship, Long Liexue said nothing. At this time, when he heard the reminder of Shouhou, everyone turned around.

Long Liexue's eyes were withdrawn from a distance, and smiled at Xiaopang and Ren Ziwei who turned their heads to look at him, revealing two rows of snow-white teeth. Against the backdrop of the green lotus around him, Long Liexue's smile seemed a little innocent. Long Liexue's smile made Ren Ziwei stunned. Ren Ziwei can guarantee that he had never seen Long Liexue laugh like this before when he was in school. Not only Ren Ziwei was stunned, but even Xiaopang and Shouhou were stunned. They had never seen such a smile before. The boss's smile was always so calm and calm. Although it was used to describe girls without showing his teeth, Xiaopang and Shouhou thought that this word was more appropriate to describe the boss.

“The scenery here is beautiful!”

There is a dazzling lotus around. After more than half an hour of shuttle, the boat will slide to the center of the lake. The water is very deep and the scenery is the best. The journey to the lake has just begun.

Somehow, the boss of the ship has been in the ship for decades. Today, looking at the faint lake, the boss of the ship has inexplicably thought of wearing a life jacket.

"I'm old!" Standing at the bow of the boat, the boss smiled mockingly in his heart. He waved the bamboo pole in his hand and penetrated into the water. Here, the bamboo pole could no longer reach the bottom of the lake...
