Chapter 375: The Unique Ornamental Peacock!
Chapter 375: The Unique Ornamental Peacock!
Wu Fei, looking at Zhang Lin and his group, could only awkwardly say, "Mr. Zhang, I still need to train a few animal trainers for you to avoid any potential issues."
Zhang Lin, understanding the attributes of Dogtooth Grass and the necessity of training animal trainers, smiled and nodded, "Mr. Wu, we will definitely need your help with that. So, please stay for a few more days and train our staff. Also, we'll have other animals arriving later, and we'll need your assistance with them as well."
Hearing this, Wu Fei breathed a sigh of relief, finally finding a way out.
Zhang Lin asked Lin Muxue to arrange for the necessary personnel.
Lin Muxue naturally understood and started making phone calls to give instructions.
Zhang Lin then headed to the core area. With the farm about to open, he needed to purchase more special sheep.
These sheep would also need to be bred in larger numbers.
After all, a grassland wouldn't be complete without some delicious grilled lamb.
The special sheep had the attribute of Enhanced Meat Quality +1, making them a perfect fit.
Upon returning to the core area, Zhang Lin began purchasing the special sheep, and then instructed Liu De to transport them in batches to the grassland. In total, he bought over 2,000 of them.
Just as he was about to continue purchasing, a game notification suddenly appeared:
【Livestock Market Refresh: Available Animals for Purchase Have Changed!】
Chen Jin Cheng was momentarily stunned, and in that moment, he noticed that the option to purchase special sheep had disappeared from the Livestock Market, only to be replaced by a new option for a unique type of ornamental peacock.
This special ornamental peacock was a result of specialized training, causing genetic changes that transformed its feathers into a pure white color, with no trace of impurities, and was priced at 1,000 yuan each.
Zhang Lin, upon seeing this refreshed peacock option, instinctively clicked to purchase some.
After all, he was curious to see what a white peacock looked like.
He had never seen such a peacock on TV either.
After purchasing a few, he immediately headed to the core area, picked up one of the peacocks, and read the accompanying note.
【Special Ornamental Peacock: Quality 1】
【This is a game-specific breed, specially cultivated, and due to its mutation, it is entirely white with no color variations in its feathers. Its eyes are a light red: Eye-Catching +1, Aesthetic +1, and Photogenic +1.】
Reading this note, Zhang Lin was surprised by the peacock's numerous attributes, especially the Photogenic +1 attribute.
With the farm's opening, he wondered if it would be a hit with tourists. He promptly conducted an online investigation into white peacocks to see if they were available elsewhere.
Surely, they must exist in reality.
Indeed, he found plenty of information. Legends spoke of the rarity of white peacocks, with only a few zoos possessing them, and even then, their numbers were limited.
The beauty of a white peacock was undeniable, its pure white feathers untainted by any impurities.
Crucially, they were scarce in the outside world, but here, he could buy them freely.
Of course, with the white peacocks acquired, he needed to purchase regular peacocks to complement them.
He called Liu Qian, instructing her to handle the procurement of ordinary peacocks.
Simultaneously, he clicked on the Livestock Market and began purchasing the ornamental peacocks, buying a total of 200.
The entire core area suddenly felt cramped with the arrival of these peacocks.
Once Zhang Lin finished his purchases, he immediately summoned Liu De, asking him to handle the transportation of the peacocks to the grassland.
He also called Lin Muxue.
Currently overseeing the project on the grassland, she would manage the area until a new leader passed the assessment.
Liu De arrived promptly and was amazed by the ornamental peacocks. He quickly summoned others to help transport the peacocks to the grassland.
Lin Muxue, having received the call, was already waiting with the grassland staff.
Knowing that a batch of special peacocks was arriving, she was prepared to receive them.
However, when she and the staff laid eyes on the 200 white peacocks, their eyes lit up, and their hearts were filled with excitement.
"Director Lin, these are white peacocks, they're so beautiful."
"Where did these peacocks come from? I can't believe there's a peacock with this color."
"These peacocks are stunning!"
"..."
Even Lin Muxue was captivated by these peacocks, their snowy white feathers and exceptional beauty.
With these peacocks, the animal-watching project in the grassland would undoubtedly flourish.
She couldn't resist admiring these peacocks for a long time.
After settling the peacocks, she returned to the office center and discussed the grassland project's management with Zhang Lin.
Managing the grassland was different from running a farm.
Firstly, while some domestic farms charge an entry fee, most offer free entry and charge for specific activities.
Liyuan Farm operates on this model.
However, the grassland project in the south has a unified entry fee.
The entire grassland is considered one big attraction.
Even if visitors don't spend on anything else, merely walking in the grassland and experiencing the ranch is equivalent to participating in this grand project.
Therefore, Liyuan Farm's grassland charges an entry fee.
The unaltered version is available on 69shu! 6=9+shu_bar, the first to publish this novel.
It's not expensive, with an entry fee of 50 yuan.
With the various attributes of the grassland created by dog-tooth grass, visitors can not only enjoy a refreshing mood but also find it exhilarating. In other words, the entry fee of 50 yuan is worth it just for the +1 In-Photo attribute.
Both of them had good reasons to believe that many people would gladly pay this fee.
Naturally, the primary purpose of the grassland project is to attract tourists.
Tourists who enter the grassland won't just pay the entry fee; they will undoubtedly spend on other activities.
After all, people rarely get the chance to travel for leisure, and when they do, they won't be stingy, especially if it ensures a delightful experience.
Therefore, in addition to the entry fee, Lin Muxue also planned to introduce some paid activities.
For instance, for 100 yuan, visitors could receive a portion of animal feed and forage, a free photo opportunity, and a tour of the grassland's full panorama on the ranch's specialized mini-bus.
This is a common activity offered by most grassland and ranch-themed scenic spots.
After all, it's impossible to cover 50,000 acres of grassland by walking alone.
In modern society, many people can't walk for long distances, especially delicate women.
Another activity is horseback riding and photo-taking, priced at 50 yuan per person for 10 minutes.
Visitors can freely pose with the horses, rent or purchase Hanfu (traditional Chinese clothing) from the farm, and then ride and take photos or videos, which is sure to be a popular activity.
Additionally, the grassland area has other functional facilities, such as a sales center.
This is where most tourist spending occurs.
However, the sales center in the grassland area requires special structures like yurts or large tents; otherwise, a regular building would look out of place.
Moreover, these are different from camping sites where visitors need to rent and set up their own equipment.
The tent rental fee is 88 yuan per tent.
The air mattress rental fee is 20 yuan per piece.
The sleeping bag rental fee is 30 yuan per piece.
The camping stove rental fee for winter is 30 yuan per piece.
This activity might become the most popular one, as such experiences are rare in the south, and many people would likely be eager to try it.
For those who prefer a more convenient option, there are pumpkin houses and pre-built yurts available for rent. These facilities are currently under construction.
The goal is to cater to various tourist preferences.
Zhang Lin was pleased with Lin Muxue's plans and asked her to proceed quickly to open the grassland.
Undoubtedly, when County Magistrate Liu learns that the grassland will open, he and his team will be overjoyed.
After all, in the past few days, Magistrate Liu has been visiting Butterfly Mountain daily, and the constant stream of tourists brings a permanent smile to his face.
