"If you're going to take a boat, I know where to find a cheap boat. After waiting for the few people to leave, Zhang Yi said with a smile.

"Okay, let's go!" finally came to the Panlong River Grand Canyon, if you can't take a boat tour, it will really be in vain, so I quickly asked Zhang Yi to lead the way.

"Hee-hee, let's go, take a boat trip to the canyon!"

The little girl Zhang Yue was overjoyed, and the quiet Zhang Lin also smiled.

Obviously, everyone is looking forward to visiting the Grand Canyon, and such a majestic and beautiful one really makes everyone yearn for it.

Not far from Gudu is a small village, Xiahe Village, where there are about twenty or thirty families, all of whom used to live on the one or two hundred acres of fields on the edge of the village.

But with the development of the economy, the tourism industry of the thousand-year-old Gudu is becoming more and more developed, and now in addition to traditional agriculture, tourism has become the second largest industry in the village, which can generate an additional income of five or six thousand yuan for everyone every year.

Therefore, every household in the village has opened a farmhouse, and also rents out cruise ships.

Of course, the boat in the village is the same as the one in Moon Lake, it is a tin box, plus an engine, and a pergola is hung on it, such a boat is very simple.

The small mountain village is surrounded by mountains and rivers, surrounded by green bamboo, and curling smoke, it is really a beautiful paradise.

Walking into the village and stepping on the smooth bluestone pavement, there is really a feeling of going back in time, as if you have returned to ancient times.

The green bricks and black tiles in the village are brand new, and it is obvious that these traditional houses are well maintained, and it is really a quaint and beautiful small village.

Although the tourist season of the Spring Festival has ended, tourists can still be seen occasionally in the village, as well as children playing around in the village.

"This is the house!" Zhang Yi was obviously very familiar with this place, and took the three of them to a family in the east of the village.

The bamboo fence tightly surrounds the small courtyard, and in the center of the yard is a clearing, and around the clearing, next to the place, there are many wild flowers and weeds.

At the back of the courtyard is a two-story wooden building, and on the railing on the second floor stands an old man in Buyi costume, about 50 years old.

"Yo, Xiaoyi hasn't seen you for a long time, why haven't I seen you and Second Brother Zhang come to the market recently?" Seeing Zhang Yi coming, the owner hurriedly greeted him, and then ran downstairs to greet everyone.

"Hello Uncle Wang, my dad and I are both growing vegetables at home now, and we may not be in business in the future!" Zhang Yi explained with a smile.

"So that's the case, everyone come in and sit, by the way, who are these people??" After Uncle Wang walked downstairs, he hurriedly beckoned everyone into the house, and then asked Zhang Yi.

"This is my cousin, these two are my cousins, isn't this the New Year's holiday, let's come to the Grand Canyon to have fun. Zhang Yi introduced with a smile.

Several people introduced each other, exchanged a few more greetings, and got to the point.

"Uncle Wang, is your cruise ship idle now?"

"Hehe, how can you not have time? Even if there is no Uncle Wang, I can help you arrange it. "Almost every household in Xiahe Village has a cruise ship, and even if their boat is rented out, the villagers will swap it with each other to help the needs of tourists as much as possible.

"Okay, Uncle Wang, you can arrange one for us, by the way, how to calculate the rent??" Zhang Yi and Uncle Wang had only done business a few times, so they were not familiar enough to let people borrow boats for free, so they asked bluntly.

"Thirty yuan for one person, I can take you to the entire Grand Canyon, of course, if you eat here, then you can also get a discount, only twenty yuan for one person. Uncle Wang said with a smile.

"How do you count eating here?" Zhang Yi continued.

"Hehe, there are two ways to eat at my house, one is a set meal, no one is twenty yuan, and the other is that we provide ingredients and pots and stoves, you can eat what you want to eat by yourself, we only charge some service fees. Uncle Wang smiled and introduced to everyone.

"Uncle Wang, let's discuss. ”

Then the four brothers and sisters discussed for a while, and decided to have lunch here, after all, they didn't know how long they were going to play, and they wouldn't be home until at least one or two o'clock at noon.

Besides, everyone is not short of this money, so it should be regarded as experiencing a different life.

"Uncle Wang, what ingredients do you have here, and when we come back later, we will prepare to cook our own ......"

Hearing Zhang Yi's words, Uncle Wang suddenly showed a smile on his face: "We have our own local chickens, local ducks, sausages and bacon here, as well as the special two-beard fish in the river." ”

"What about vegetables??" You can't just eat meat in a meal, you also need vegetables, so Zhang Feng asked.

"Hehe, I have a lot of vegetables at home, you can come and see ...... in the backyard"

So under the leadership of Uncle Wang, everyone came to the backyard, and sure enough, greens, cabbage, lettuce, potatoes, coriander, shallots, garlic, and all kinds of seasonal vegetables were available.

At this time, everyone was finally relieved and decided to eat here at noon, but only after everyone finished swimming in the Grand Canyon.

"Okay, everyone hurry up and get on the boat, by the way, put on life jackets, if you run into water law enforcement, it will be very troublesome. ”

Now everyone attaches great importance to the safety of tourism, especially in the past two years, the cruise ship capsized on the Yangtze River, which made all water tourist attractions pay close attention to water traffic safety.

Although in the event of a large cruise ship capsizing, even wearing a life jacket may not work, because the underwater vortex alone can make people unable to escape.

But for such a small boat, wearing a life jacket is really useful, and there is a good chance of surviving in the event of a capsizing accident.

"Everyone sit down, let's go......" Seeing everyone sitting on the planks on both sides of the cabin, Uncle Wang smiled, started the engine, drove the village, and drove upstream unhurriedly.

Sitting on the boat, blowing the river breeze, everyone feels really refreshed, looking at the mountains in the distance, the torrent under the boat, and the Grand Canyon not far upstream, the two sides of the river towering into the clouds and mountain peaks and cliffs, covering the sky and the sun.

"This section of the Panlong River Grand Canyon is more than 5,000 meters long, from Xiahe Village to Shanghe Village upstream, there are towering cliffs in between, very dangerous, during the Qing Dynasty, there is also a water light card here, specifically to collect the commercial tax of passing merchant ships......

"At that time, the Panlong River was much more lively than it is now, and Gudu was still known as a small provincial city!" Speaking of the glorious history of Gudu Town, Uncle Wang also laughed happily.

"I see, the waterways here used to be very busy!"

"Of course, this is the only way to go to the sea in our Guizhou Province, and from here it goes straight downstream, that is the prosperous Guangdong Province, which leads directly to the sea......"

Speaking of this, Uncle Wang's mind is also full of longing, full of yearning for the vast sea.
