)Happy Lantern Festival

In a short time, the number of visitors reached more than 14,800.

When Cheng Xiaolin saw this data, she calculated silently in her mind for a while, and then said: "Husband, why do I feel that the number of people coming to the park today is higher than yesterday's number? Maybe it can exceed 50,000?"

"I think it's about the same." Cao Shujie also nodded.

Thinking about what his wife said yesterday, there were a lot of people on the pirate ship, and his wife specifically asked him to buy another pirate ship. He came over today and had to go take a look.

There were too many people, so Cao Shujie held his second child and asked his wife to hold Mengmeng's hand and walk forward together.

I saw many children lining up to climb the conch slide and elephant trunk slide on the east side.

The corridor and ripple benches next to the two slides were also filled with parents watching their children.

Finally, there is something that can attract children to play, and parents like them can also take some time to rest.

There were also parents who were busy posing for photos in front of beautiful flower trees or fruit trees, with relaxed smiles on their faces. From a distance, Cao Shujie could feel that they were very happy in their hearts.

"Dad, I'm going to go boating." Mengmeng grabbed her mother's hand and turned to her father.

Before Cao Shujie spoke, Mengmeng couldn't hold her mother with one hand, so she simply grabbed her mother's hand with both hands and dragged her backwards towards the artificial lake in the center of the park.

Cheng Xiaolin looked at her daughter, then looked back at her husband helplessly: "She won't give up if I don't let her go over and have a look."

Cao Shujie thought it would be okay to follow him and have a look.

Carrying his son and following his wife and daughter, Cao Shujie came to the artificial lake in the center of the park. Cao Shujie saw that there were at least sixty or seventy people lining up next to the guardrail.

There were also many children dragging their parents to the back of the queue, rushing to get in line.

"It's really a lot," Cao Shujie said.

Cheng Xiaolin said to him: "Didn't I tell you yesterday that there were a lot of people rowing."

She said: "Not only here, but also in front of the other paid projects, there are quite a lot of people."

Children's theme parks are basically focused on children.

Most parents and the elderly come with their children to play. Charged items such as boating, pirate ships, carousels, sightseeing trains, etc. are also open to children.

However, in some projects, parents must accompany their children when they play, which results in a certain project being particularly popular.

For example, for activities such as rowing, where parents must accompany their children, there are particularly many people queuing up.

In comparison, the three carousels are just for children, and there are much fewer people queuing.

"Mengmeng, let's go somewhere else to play. When the park closes in the afternoon, dad will take you here to play, okay?" Cao Shujie promised his daughter.

When Mengmeng heard this, she looked at the people queuing up, and she didn't want to go in line.

"Well, dad, you said it yourself, you must come when the time comes." Mengmeng wanted to hook up with her dad.

She really wants to play.

Cao Shujie nodded heavily and said to his daughter: "Don't worry, dad will definitely come with you to play tonight, absolutely."

"And dad also promised you that he will buy you a very beautiful boat. Only you can sit on it and no one else can sit on it. In the future, even if there are more people, you can still row the boat after you come here, okay?"

When she heard that her father wanted to buy her a boat alone, Mengmeng narrowed her eyes with joy and nodded vigorously: "Dad, please hurry up, sister Xinyi will be here next week."

"Oh, you didn't mention it and I forgot about it." Cao Shujie slapped his forehead with his backhand and said, "Dad, I promise, I will buy it for you in the next few days."

Cheng Xiaolin couldn't help but laugh when she saw her husband promising two things at once and playing with Mengmeng.

She also asked her husband when he would consider buying another batch of boats.

"The last time I came here I saw that there were not enough ships, so I made a plan to buy 100 ships. It should be delivered within the next two days." Cao Shujie said this.

He said: "I'll call and ask later. If it hasn't been delivered yet, I'll buy another one for Mengmeng." Cao Shujie said.

On the first day of the park's opening, Cao Shujie came over for inspection and saw many people queuing up to row at the artificial lake. The person in charge here, Cao Guijuan, also told him that there were so many people queuing up for rowing every day.

Cao Shujie finally called the merchant selling sightseeing boats and ordered 100 more boats, including 60 electric-driven boats and 40 pedal boats.

Mengmeng heard her father say that he had bought 100 boats. She was very curious and quickly asked her father what boats he had bought.

Cao Shujie told her that there was a little yellow duck, a Donald Duck, a white swan, and a little white rabbit.

"Dad, do you have Princess Elsa?" Mengmeng asked.

She likes Princess Elsa's dolls and naturally thinks that this kind of cruise ship also has Princess Elsa's dolls.

But Cao Shujie shook his head: "It's not among the 100, but it doesn't matter. Dad will call and ask in a moment. Even if they don't have it, I will order one for you. How about it?"

"Is this kind of boat expensive?" Cheng Xiaolin was quite curious about the price.

Cao Shujie shook his head: "This thing is not expensive. A pedal boat costs 3,770 yuan, and a larger one costs 5,100 yuan. They are all self-draining."

"There are also electric-driven ones, which are 1,000 yuan more expensive."

"This time I bought a small boat, not a big one."

"Why is it so cheap?"

Cheng Xiaolin found it incredible after hearing this. She thought this kind of boat was quite expensive, but she didn't know that the price was very different from what she imagined.

After all, many parks in the city charge an average of more than 80 yuan for half an hour. When they were in the capital before, the fee for half an hour was more than 100 yuan. She didn't think much about it at that time, only thinking that this kind of boat itself was very expensive.

Unexpectedly, Cao Shujie told her: "Honey, don't believe it, I still look for good quality ones. The price is high, but there are actually ones with lower quality, and the price can be 1,000 yuan cheaper."

"You can buy it for just over 2,000 yuan, but we have to think about it for tourists. Safety comes first," he said.

"And other people's prices are expensive, and a large part of the cost is venue rental fees, but we don't have that."

Cao Shujie stamped his feet: "Honey, this place belongs to us, what do you think?"

After hearing this, Cheng Xiaolin suddenly realized that this is the same as renting a house to open a store. No matter what is sold, a large part of the price includes the rent.

But from a certain perspective, what they are doing is equivalent to a business without capital.

"So, we are making a profit?" Cheng Xiaolin said.

Cao Shujie rolled his eyes at her: "What are you thinking about?"

"We built this park with our own money. It has cost almost 30 million now, and we will spend another 10 to 20 million later."

"There are also maintenance in the park and employee salaries. Which of these things should we not spend money on?"

Seeing her husband calculating the accounts one by one on his fingers, Cheng Xiaolin wanted to kick him.

Before I put my idea into action, I suddenly heard someone shouting: "Boss."

But it was Cao Guijuan, the person in charge of the cruise ship. She just saw Cao Shujie's family standing here in the cabin and found that they had not left, so she hurried over to say hello.

"Sister-in-law." Cao Guijuan shouted to Cheng Xiaolin again.

"Guijuan, how are you? Are you used to being here?" Cheng Xiaolin asked with a smile.

Cao Guijuan nodded: "I'm used to it. It's good to see so many children coming to play every day."

"Boss, I just called Boss Chen and said that if nothing happens, the ship will be delivered by tomorrow night at the latest." Cao Guijuan said.

Cao Shujie nodded: "It's pretty much what I thought. Just find a few more people after the goods arrive and unload them directly."

"Yeah." Cao Guijuan responded, these are all trivial matters, and Cao Shujie doesn't need to worry about them.

When Mengmeng heard that the boat her father bought was coming soon, wouldn't it mean that the boat her father promised to buy her would be gone?

She was very unhappy and quickly reminded her father.

Cao Shujie laughed and told her not to worry.

"Mengmeng, I'll call him right now." Cao Shujie said.

In front of Mengmeng, he took out his mobile phone and called Chen Chao, the owner of Yangcheng Hailanghua Boat. After a while, the other party answered the phone.

"Boss Cao, hello." Chen Chao was particularly enthusiastic towards Cao Shujie.

It's okay if you don't have enthusiasm, this is the big boss.

I bought 100 boats from him two years ago, and this is not over yet. I bought more than 100 boats from him a few days ago.

Chen Chao was thinking about how big Cao Shujie's place was. He estimated that it would have more than ten acres of land. Otherwise, how could there be space for so many boats?

"Hello, Boss Chen." Cao Shujie also greeted warmly.

The two chatted for a while, and Chen Chao told Cao Shujie that the 100 expedited ships had been shipped and would be delivered to Caojiazhuang tomorrow at the latest.

"Okay, Boss Chen, I want to order two ships from you this time. Is that okay?" Cao Shujie asked him.

Chen Chao told Cao Shujie that he had to do it, and he also assured Cao Shujie that he could make whatever Cao Shujie wanted.

"It's not complicated, just get two Princess Elsa ones, one for 6 people and one for 10 people. My daughter must have it, otherwise I won't be able to trouble you." Cao Shujie said.

When Chen Chao heard what Cao Shujie said, he understood instantly and promised Cao Shujie that it would be delivered within three days.

Cao Shujie also told him that he would transfer the money to him later.

Mr. Chen also shouted that he would give it to his niece, but Cao Shujie did not agree.

Everyone is in business and knows how much money they can earn. There is no need to rely on personal relationships for this small amount of money.

After hanging up the phone, Cao Shujie said to his daughter: "Mengmeng, dad has made an order for you. When your sister Xinyi comes over next Saturday, it will definitely be there."
