Chapter 352 Kidnapping Crackdown

Xinming Village.

Its hallmark lies at the border of two provinces, where its development themes are intertwined with the life at the interface of the two provinces, for better or for worse.

Li Huaqiang's grandmother's house was located in Xinming Village, so after his last release from prison, he rented a courtyard there, bought a few beds, and started a youth hostel catered specifically to backpackers arriving via the highway.

Having traveled himself, he knew some young people intentionally avoided big cities to explore the countryside. All it took was a trendy name and lowering the price to twenty or thirty per bed, and there would always be people willing to come.

In the beginning, Li Huaqiang thought of emulating an inn of ill repute from "Outlaws of the Marsh," hoping to sell off solitary lodgers for a good price someday.

After actually selling a few and making some money, Li Huaqiang started to treasure this hideout.
