Chapter 60

After breakfast, Qin Yi invited Ryan over. This was Ryan's second visit to the main house since Qin Yi returned to the ranch, but it was the first time he met Liu Qimeng. The last time, Liu Qimeng was in her room packing.

First, he introduced Liu Qimeng to Ryan. After everyone had greeted each other, Qin Yi asked Angel to go play with Lai Pi. The adults then sat down to discuss the farm tourism project.

Ryan took the coffee that Susa served and thanked her, then began to share what he knew. It was mostly about horseback riding, milking cows, corn mazes, barbecues, and camping. The farm was close to a large waterfall, which could be considered a tourist attraction, but it was mainly for visitors from far away.

To have a steady stream of visitors, they would need a few tour guides to lead the tours and ensure the safety of the visitors, especially during camping.

"Are the visitors here not stable?" Qin Yi recalled that Ryan had emphasized this issue earlier and was a bit worried. If there weren't enough visitors, wouldn't all their efforts be in vain?

"They are mostly from nearby towns, and no one organizes them. They come spontaneously, so the small farm tourism here is more like a countryside retreat." Ryan tried to be as precise as possible to avoid misleading Qin Yi.

Susa nodded beside him. Although the small farm didn't do tourism, she was familiar with the general situation. If they could ensure a steady flow of visitors, the nearby farms would definitely see a significant increase in tourism income!

Qin Yi frowned, thinking about how to promote and attract visitors.

At this moment, Liu Qimeng spoke up, "Can we attract visitors from China? In recent years, more and more people are traveling abroad. White-collar workers and retired middle-aged and elderly people would definitely want a place to relax. Coming to this small farm to experience American rural life would not only be relaxing but also seem sophisticated."

Qin Yi's eyes lit up. He knew how popular domestic tourism was. If the tourism project here was well-developed, it would definitely attract visitors from China.

Moreover, he had been thinking about how to help Wang Xixi and Fang Yue find a way to make a living. If the small farm tourism project was successful and could attract visitors, he could have them set up a travel agency in China to organize tours. This way, his friends would have a business, and he would have a steady flow of visitors, a win-win situation!

"Good idea, Qimeng. This will definitely attract interest. We can also build a vegetable garden on the farm. Visitors can pick their own organic vegetables and cook their own meals, which could be another attraction!"

Liu Qimeng rolled her eyes when he called her "Qimeng." This was a new nickname Qin Yi had given her, as calling her "Liu Qimeng" all the time seemed too distant!

Actually, Liu Qimeng preferred a bit of distance and didn't like being called by this childish name!

Susa and Ryan didn't know the situation in China, but seeing their confidence, they assumed there wouldn't be a problem.

With that, the small farm could start its transformation. The accommodation could be simple at first, and the number of tourist activities could be limited. If there were a steady flow of visitors in the future, they could plan for a hotel and new attractions.

After the discussion, Ryan had to go and check on the irrigation system's construction, so he left. Liu Qimeng also returned to her room to start writing the small farm tourism transformation plan.

Qin Yi was about to suggest a picnic when he received a call from Ye Fang. He shook his head, wondering if Ye Fang had already finished the fruit wine. But it had only been a few days, and he drank it so quickly!

"Old Three, what's up?" Qin Yi lounged on the sofa, feeling lazy.

Susa saw him on the phone and stayed with Angel to play with Lai Pi.

"The restaurant is all set up in the capital. I plan to open a club, focusing on high-end clientele. How about it, do you want to invest some money?" Ye Fang's voice was as loud as ever, especially when he was happy.

"You have money and connections, so you don't need to worry about anything. I won't get involved." The capital was too complex, and Qin Yi preferred to live a peaceful life. Dealing with intrigue was too troublesome!

"I knew you'd say that. You're still the same. But it's good to be free." The club would definitely make money, and he wanted to share the profits, but it turned out as expected.

Ye Fang also admired Qin Yi's ability to let things go. "I was just asking casually. The main thing is, one bottle of wine isn't enough. How many more do you have? Get me a dozen or so!"

Always thinking about the next meal, Qin Yi pursed his lips but didn't want to tease him. "Find someone to bring them over. I don't want to make another trip."

"Of course, I'll find someone. I can't trouble Master Qin to make a trip!" Ye Fang continued to laugh, and Qin Yi could imagine his smug expression. He was happy to play around with his friends.

"By the way, Master Qin, what about the ** incident? The trendy guy got into trouble, hahaha!"

"How did he get into trouble? I forgot about it after returning to America. And you, you tricked me! This time, I'll deduct one bottle of wine!"

"Come on, Master Qin, I just clicked it without noticing who it was." Ye Fang feigned innocence, though he had done it on purpose, but he couldn't admit it.

"Alright, alright, deduct one bottle. Consider it a lesson!" Qin Yi waved his hand. Such a weak defense, who would believe it!

"Quick, tell me, what happened to the trendy guy? And did it involve me?"

"Alright, you're the boss, one bottle, no more!" Deducting one bottle was fine; he could always get more later, hehehe!

"The incident in the hotel corridor was captured on surveillance and posted online. The video shows the trendy guy hitting Liu Qimeng, and then you and Liu Qimeng fighting him, without any cuts!" Ye Fang laughed as if he was watching a comedy.

Qin Yi didn't care about that; he only wanted to know if he had been exposed. "Stop joking around. What about me? Was I exposed? And Liu Qimeng?"

"Wait, wait, let me explain. The surveillance also had a microphone, so his insults were translated. This made it a sensitive issue, and the authorities are considering putting him on a blacklist, banning him from all entertainment activities in China. Even his new movie was almost banned, but Liu Yifei's company intervened, and it wasn't cut."

"Who cares? Tell me about me..." Qin Yi sounded listless. It didn't matter if he was exposed; no one in the village cared, and he hadn't done anything wrong. He was just helping the weak!

It was just the first time he might be exposed, which made him a bit emotional.

"Alright, alright, you were exposed, but only your name, age, and school were revealed. Grandfather found out and had it stopped. I also reminded my classmates, and they didn't spread it. As for Liu Qimeng, there's no information. Her face isn't clearly visible in the video, so there's no harm. That's the situation."

Ye Fang spoke quickly, but Qin Yi was satisfied. As long as it didn't affect his normal life, the rest didn't matter.

After hanging up, Qin Yi went upstairs and told Liu Qimeng, putting her at ease. Then they discussed the picnic. Liu Qimeng, being a lively girl, lost her interest in writing the plan when she heard about the picnic.

After packing everything, Qin Yi took Liu Qimeng, Susa, and Angel on a picnic. Angel was the happiest, as it was her first time going on a picnic with so many people. She giggled all the way, like a happy little bird!

This time, they didn't ride horses but drove four-wheeled motorcycles. Liu Qimeng couldn't ride a horse, but she could drive, and the four-wheeled motorcycle was easy to learn. She got the hang of it after a few minutes.

Qin Yi drove one, with Angel, while Susa and Liu Qimeng each drove one. They brought chairs, food, water, a small cooking pot, and most importantly, hunting rifles. Qin Yi and Susa each carried one, and they also brought handguns, ensuring safety above all.
