After I toasted everyone, the atmosphere in the cafeteria became lively, and everyone toasted each other with water instead of wine.

Teacher Xiao Zhang then asked me secretly: "Brother Li, what did you say to Teacher Wang Yuxia just now? Why do I feel like she glared at me several times?"

"I told her that you like her and asked her to consider you. You listen to me! Pursue when it's time to pursue. Don't regret it after losing the opportunity. If you wait like a stewed melon and egg, you may lose everything!

"I told him a little sadly.

"Brother, you are really my brother. Why don't you put me on the crater of a volcano to roast me like this? I don't dare. I have nothing now, no savings, no house, and the burden on my family is heavy." Teacher Xiao Zhang was a little worried.

He said with inferiority complex.

"Dating about love based on material conditions is a twisted love in a big city. The environment you are in now is the most suitable for vigorous love. You may know the relationship between me and Teacher Yaoyao. Don't wait until you lose it before cherishing it. That way

It's too late." I said. Actually, I just wanted them to stop being so reserved and break the window for them. I don't have much experience in falling in love, but I know I have to be thick-skinned.

The dinner ended in a lively atmosphere, and almost all the food was eaten. The principal held my hand and kept saying that it was a pity that we could not drink this time, and the hospitality was not good. He would invite us to the county tomorrow.

go drinking.

Hua Wen and I did not live in the school that night. The school originally offered to arrange dormitories, but Hua Wen said that when she visited her students in the afternoon, many students cried with excitement, and her heart was a little shaken. If she stayed one more night, she might

will be more shaken.

"It's so sad. Why don't we just go to Maigaiti and spend the night? I'm afraid I'll stay again after just one night." Hua Wen seemed to have tears in her eyes.

So in the warm night breeze, we walked through the straight road in the desert and returned to Maigaiti County. This time I did not stay in the county hotel, but in the quasi-four-star Daolang Hotel.

Hua Wen is a body of contradictions. Sometimes she can endure hardships and doesn't care if her living, food, clothing, housing and transportation conditions are poor. But sometimes she is overly particular. She wants the best housing, the best food, and the cleanest hygiene. Daolang Da

The hotel seems to be the best hotel in Makati.

Back to our respective rooms, I looked at the time and saw that it was already late, but I still sent a message to Ainur and asked her if she would be in the county tomorrow. I have never thanked her in person. Last time she drove and delivered the goods to Mire.

My visit to Chi Creek and Postantilek was a great help to me, and every drop of kindness must be repaid by a spring of water.

When I pass by here, I have to say hello to her. If she is in the county, I will definitely treat her to a meal at noon tomorrow.

I still woke up early in the morning, guessing that Hua Wen would sleep in, so I went to the restaurant to have a buffet breakfast alone. Hua Wen was too excited yesterday, so she must be very tired and needs a good rest.

After breakfast, I was walking alone on the road in Maigaiti. At this time, I saw Ainur’s reply on my phone: “Brother Li, I fell asleep last night. I am in the county. Come to Maigaiti.”

Did Gai mention it? Is Mire here?"

I chatted with Ainur while walking, and finally agreed to meet her for a meal at noon. Ainur said that there is no particularly good place to eat in Maigaiti, either a small restaurant or a restaurant.

We ate in a big hotel and she took us to a nice place.

When I returned to the hotel, I happened to meet Hua Wen in the elevator who had already finished breakfast. She asked me what my plans were for today, whether I would go back to Kashgar soon or have some fun here. I told her that I had an appointment with Ainur at noon.

In the morning, I went to play around. I haven't played in Maigaiti yet. I came back for lunch at noon and checked the situation in the afternoon. If the morning was good, I would go back and stay one night. If I think there is nothing interesting, I would go back to Kashgar.

Anyway, the journey took more than two hours and ran very quickly.

Not daring to go far, we drove to Kumu Kusar Township. A few kilometers south of the county, there is Daolang Painting Township. Daolang Painting Township is a 4A scenic spot. Because it focuses on humanities, it is considered a man-made attraction.

Daolang Painting Village is built according to the overall planning layout of "one street, two districts, and one new village". It mainly includes a Daolang characteristic cultural tourism street, Daolang peasant painting exhibition and creation, tourist painting experience area, Daolang song and dance performance, special catering, etc.

In the folk culture section, most of the content is about visiting experiences and feelings.

Because it was my first time to visit such a cultural attraction, I was very interested in the Taklimakan Desert Adventure Memorial Hall, Peasant Painting Exhibition Hall Daolang Painting Village Style Garden, Peasant Painter Village, Taklimakan Desert Adventure Base Camp, Pedestrian Street, "Papuz" activities, and "Sahadi" activities.

I focused on the content with good reviews to see if I could learn from the ancient city’s business model.

Generally speaking, peasant paintings are good. The advantage is that they are original, colorful and positive. The disadvantage is that they cannot be used as collectibles and lack attractiveness and artistic value. This makes me think about a question that I have thought about repeatedly before, which is what

This is the public demand for tourists to visit the ancient city.

In my previous survey, tourists actually didn’t have too many ideas. The original purpose of their trip was to see something they had never seen or thought of. Therefore, when it comes to business in the ancient city, younger people think that the ancient city

There should be bars, cafes, fashionable clothing and other fashionable elements; middle-aged people think that the ancient city should be the old style with numerous shops and numerous bazaars in the past. The old style has rich humanistic elements and is worth seeing.

But I understand that tourists will not buy a horseshoe as a souvenir to take home, nor will they take home a unique wooden bed. Most of the traditional handicraft products in the ancient city are daily necessities, and most of those who need them are from other counties.

In fact, they were bought by local people in need. Only some earthenware, wooden and copper products were brought back to the mainland by tourists.

Most of what tourists take away are tourist souvenirs produced in Yiwu, fake handmade carpets and jade that is difficult to distinguish from fake. Therefore, smart and capable tourists choose purely handmade products such as earthenware pottery, copperware, and musical instruments as souvenirs.

take away.

Those ordinary tourists took away tourist souvenirs with the characteristics of the Western Regions produced in Yiwu. I have been wondering if there is anything that can combine tradition and innovation while also having artistic value. If such a product can be found, it will be helpful for the development of

The tourism market can play a key role.

"Idiot, you are in a daze again. What are you thinking about?" Hua Wen touched me at the edge and asked.

"I am communicating with this land." I replied.

"Does it say Balangzi, Maglai! Can you speak human language?" Hua Wen pretended to be angry.

"Let me tell you a cold joke. There was a man who wanted to open a supermarket, but he was surrounded by supermarkets, and they were all chain supermarkets. So he asked another friend, what name do you think he could give to the supermarket to defeat them instantly? His

My friend replied: The supermarket entrance." I told Hua Wen.

"It's not cold at all, and it's not funny at all. Don't interrupt. What are you thinking about? Are you thinking about me?" Hua Wen asked again.

"I'm thinking of you and the beauty you think of! This place seems very lively, but after visiting just now, I can summarize that there are two good things about Maigaiti: one is the delicious Daolang Yang mutton, and the other is the beautiful Daolang dance.

There is something to eat and something to see, but nothing that can be taken away. I have always wondered if there are any handmade products suitable for farmers who are engaged in e-commerce. If there are, I can help a group of people." I said.

I have always felt that e-commerce can shorten the distance between producers and consumers to the greatest extent and perfectly connect demand and supply directly. Therefore, the idea of ​​starting a business from e-commerce has never been out of my mind.

"Have you figured out anything?" Hua Wen asked.

"No." I answered.

"Your shortcoming is that you think too much and do too little. You should seize the time to try more. For example, wholesale some peasant paintings now or order some peasant paintings with them to sell in your store or online.

"Hua Wen said.

"Let me see again. Capital is all about profit. I think people here should be able to think of this idea, and they have even tried it. But if it were me, I might not buy peasant paintings. The collection has no value.

, the artistry is relatively poor, and the souvenirs are not exquisite enough." I replied.

I'm not good at thinking across fields. Creating a wasteland for sweetness already consumes all my brain power. It's hard to imagine that I can discover and innovate in other fields.

"Your shortcoming is hesitation, which is not a good thing. If you want to do something, just do it. Why do you think so much? The chance of being afraid of the wolf in front of you may be fleeting." Hua Wen said.

"Do I have any other shortcomings?" I asked.

"You can't see the good in others." Hua Wen said.

I was silent. I had been feeling a little restless for a while. I thought that opening a shop would be considered a success. Now that I think about it, I have not made it clear what I want to do or what I can do in the future. I have returned to the original question I asked myself.

What is my original intention?

When I got back to the car, I looked at the introductions of other scenic spots. The desert and Populus euphratica forest are the highlights, but the leaves of Populus euphratica are still lush and green now. I want to save it until autumn. As for the desert, I visited Chen Yan last time.

We have already gone deep into a large section without any danger, and there is no need to watch the small desert tour here.

"Let's go back to the county town. After dinner with Ainur, we will return to Kashgar. I want to clear my mind again," I said.

"Look at you, what are you thinking about? Is it necessary to go back to Kashgar to deal with it? You don't want to make excuses for everything. Not everything needs an excuse." Hua Wen was already a little dissatisfied at this time.

From the beginning when Hua Wen and I were respectful to each other, now that she has started to point out my shortcomings outspokenly, there is no longer the initial strangeness and estrangement. In my heart, I am very grateful to Hua Wen for always hitting me, instead of ignoring me or being like Mire.

Blind trust and admiration for me.
