Chapter 218: Scenery Inspection of Little Majia Island

"This…"

Chen Jianhai was a bit confused.

His instinct told him that something was off,

but after thinking it over,

it suddenly seemed to make sense.

"Besides these two, are there any new dishes?" Chen Jianhai asked.

Paipan said, "We've also developed one called Tongquetai. For now, we have about three types."

"Alright! This is something we can work with, it's quite interesting."

Chen Jianhai nodded affirmatively, "Since it's a themed concept menu, make sure to enrich the variety of dishes. Don't just focus on squeezing ideas from the Prime Minister."

"Make dishes like 'Burning of Chibi,' 'Sinking Fish and Falling Geese,' 'Bagua Formation,' and 'Seven Steps Luoshen.'"

"Don't just stick to the Three Kingdoms theme, try 'Along the River During the Qingming Festival' as well."

Hearing this, the octopus in Paipan's hand suddenly retracted,

Goodness!

'Along the River During the Qingming Festival'? An octopus's ink might not be enough!

If we were to draw such a picture, it would really be squeezed dry.

Chen Jianhai said, "Once the dishes are fully developed, let me review them first. After approval, I'll open a special restaurant for you in the island's restaurant."

"Thank you, boss! Thank you so much!" Paipan was so excited he couldn't contain himself.

There have been too many personnel changes in the hotel recently.

In just a few days, Langai Hotel has not only transformed into a five-star hotel but also opened an island branch.

As the hotel continues to grow and more talents are recruited,

if he doesn't seize the time to innovate and establish himself in the hotel, he'll eventually be eliminated.

Now he could finally catch his breath and sleep well at night.

...

Little Majia Island, pier.

"This is Little Majia Island."

Yang Ruying stepped off the passenger ship and took a general look at the island.

She had expected to see an old and backward island, but to her surprise, this island looked vibrant and full of life.

Although it lacked some of the modern and fashionable elements of Da Cai Gui Island,

the scenery, ocean, and sky seemed to have an enhanced filter applied,

so clean that it didn't seem like something that could exist in reality, more like an island scene from a cartoon.

Her first reaction was, it looks... quite nice?!

Along the beach, the first thing that came into view was Xingguang Binhai Road.

At first glance, the entire road winds through lush trees and grass, with beautiful small lamps set up at regular intervals on the railings. Pink and white flowers and bougainvillea bloom in turn, like a splendid flower path.

On the side of the road, there were long wooden benches for people to rest,

some tourists were leisurely sitting on the benches drinking soda and watching the sea, occasionally taking selfies with their cameras.

In addition to the pedestrian walkway, there was a flat road for bicycles and vehicles.

From time to time, tourists pedaled tandem bikes leisurely by.

Yang Ruying was a bit shocked.

The road is built so well???

She is the director of the Cultural Tourism Promotion Center in Nanjing City, having conducted research in numerous coastal cities and islands over the years,

but whether it's the newly invested Da Cai Gui Island or other islands in Chunyang Province, they usually just paved a basic walking path.

For coastal roads, at most, they just ensured frequent repairs to keep them solid.

But here on Little Majia Island, this coastal road not only met pedestrian needs but also added a lane for bicycles and vehicles, which was unexpected.

However, Yang Ruying quickly shook her head, realizing that developing a tourist island involves more than just a nice coastal road.

A comprehensive assessment is needed.

If Little Majia Island just focused on beautifying the coastal road, it wouldn't be suitable for large-scale development.

"This public restroom and garbage can are well designed, worth learning and promoting."

"Is the restroom this nice inside???"

Seeing the public restroom and garbage can, Yang Ruying was a bit impressed but not too surprised.

After all, it's a tourist spot, and designers might put extra thought into making a hidden public restroom.

But upon seeing the interior of the restroom, Yang Ruying was astonished.

Because whether in Nanjing City or other cities, no public restroom was built to the standards of a five-star hotel.

The interior here,

if you added a bed and a table, people might believe it was a finely decorated small apartment.

Even Chunyang Province doesn't have such luxurious and exquisite public restrooms, yet a small island does?

Yang Ruying's interest was piqued.

They say public restrooms are a city's conscience,

she decided to thoroughly inspect Little Majia Island.

...

Following the signs, after turning left about 1000 meters from Xingguang Binhai Road, you reach the island's central area,

which was more populated.

Under the towering coconut trees, various shops were built like blocks on both sides.

On the left, the Island Beauty Clothing Store had a three-tiered clothing display wall made of bamboo poles, with swimsuits, straw hats, and specialty T-shirts displayed at the front.

Next to it, a couple was selecting bracelets at a local specialty shop.

The girl was focused on choosing while the boy held an umbrella and sipped on an ice king drink.

At the corner of the street, a cow-patterned kitten ran to the front of a rice noodle shop, licking its paw,

soon after, a boy of about ten ran out of the rice noodle shop,

holding a cat treat, crouching down to feed the kitten.

Meanwhile, a small white dog at the café across the street was tied up at the door, lying on the cool ground, enviously watching the kitten.

This scene made Yang Ruying feel like she was on vacation, not on an inspection trip.

She continued walking on the island,

passing through the residential area, and then along the coastal road up the small hill on the north side of the island. Standing on the hill, watching the blue sea waves crash against the rocks, and looking up at the seabirds flying across the sky,

Yang Ruying became absorbed.

She initially went to Da Cai Gui Island because she believed its investment, construction, and facility upgrades were more valuable for investment.

But now, it seems Little Majia Island's scenery and culture are clearly more outstanding.

"What is that?"

Suddenly, Yang Ruying noticed a small area with blue dome-shaped roofs in the lush greenery.

It didn't look like an ordinary house but rather a beautiful building.

Curious, Yang Ruying walked towards the blue dome along Xingguang Binhai Road.

Leaving the coastal road, she stepped onto a white cobblestone path,

in disbelief, she looked at the white-walled, blue-roofed vacation hotel in front of her, her mouth slowly opening, unable to come back to her senses for a long time.

She had thought that the comments on Blue Sky Travel about a manor were just about a nice bed and breakfast,

but she never expected that there was a private vacation manor on Little Majia Island!

Compared to the island hotel on Da Cai Gui Island,

the vacation manor here is a complete downgrade in comparison, it directly surpasses it!
