The fishing ground I opened has become a national leisure destination

Chapter 300: Winter Needs Surprises

"There are three ponds in Chen Yuan Fishing Ground. It's not realistic to build a shed to turn it into an indoor fishing ground. Small ponds are barely feasible, but old ponds and large ponds are difficult to handle." Chen Yuan took a deep puff of the cigarette, then extinguished the cigarette butt in the ashtray.

It’s not realistic to set up a shed, but there are parasols at the fishing ground.

It has the properties of being warm in winter and cool in summer.

However, there is still a difference between winter and summer. Cooling is always easier than heating. It is very cool to stay under a parasol in the summer. Even at noon in the dog days of summer, you will not feel hot or anxious.

But it’s different in winter.

Even though the parasol can keep you warm in winter and cool in summer, you can still shiver when the cold wind blows all around.

Fortunately, Chen Yuan was prepared. I still remember the thunderstorm in August. Chen Yuan put a curtain on the parasol to block the wind and rain.

Putting down the curtain and using it as a parasol will make you feel like you are in a small cabin, instantly isolating yourself from the cold outside.

"I should say that the parasols you bought are really nice, but they're fine during the day, but it's hard to change for night fishing. After all, it's too cold outside."

Speaking of fishing spots, Chen Jun's expression became serious again.

The installation of parasols and curtains had already been implemented at the end of last month. At the beginning, some space was left facing the fish pond, but later it was completely covered.

But the effect is still far less than in summer.

The cold wind in winter can penetrate through the cracks. As long as there is a small gap, the cold wind will blow in. Especially after six o'clock, the temperature drops very quickly and the cold wind can cut your face and bones.

Of course, there is an effect, otherwise the daytime business would have been cut in half. Even if it is not as bad as night fishing, it would not be much better.

"Night fishing is indeed difficult to save." Chen Guo also thinks so.

It’s not that the parasol curtains are ineffective, it’s just that the temperature at night is too low. Even if the fishermen are crazy and drill the gaps with wind, it doesn’t matter, but the fish will always come out.

Especially Laotang.

It was a huge pond, and even if a fish weighed dozens of kilograms, it would take dozens of minutes to bring it ashore. Although I was very excited when I caught the fish and didn't feel anything, the cold wind really hit me.

And there will always be a time to leave. Who can stand the damp and cold wind?
“Night fishing is difficult to save, so let’s give up on it.” Chen Yuan said with a smile.

"Are you going to give up night fishing?" Chen Jun and the others were surprised.

Chen Yuan nodded calmly.

With the coming of cold winter, it is normal for fishing grounds to be affected. He never thought that night fishing would be so popular in the cold winter, let alone anglers, they couldn't stand it either.

From the beginning, he had not expected to fish on a cold winter night.

"The cold winter is not suitable for night fishing, so we will concentrate on doing a good job during the day. As long as we can do a good job during the day, I believe the results will not be too bad." Chen Yuan said.

"The situation during the day is indeed better than night fishing, but it is still far inferior to the previous few months. It is difficult to do well and reach the previous level." Chen Jun pondered for a while and started to take the cigarettes on the table again.

"According to the current situation, if we want to focus on the daytime market, the business hours will have to be greatly adjusted." Chen Guo took the glasses handed to him by Chen Jun and said to Chen Yuan.

In the winter mornings, the bed is extremely magical, a world that is hard to leave. Moreover, the dawns come late in winter, so there are no anglers coming to the pond early in the morning.

Since December, anglers have only shown up around 8:00 a.m., and generally around 9:00 a.m., the number of anglers is relatively dense, and around 6:00 a.m., the peak time for anglers to leave the area is around 12:00 p.m.

Not many people stay to continue fishing until eight or nine at night.

This means that the effective business hours during the day are basically from 9 am to 6 pm, which is half the previous hours.

“The timing will definitely have to be adjusted.”

Chen Yuan smiled and said, "Fishing grounds have off-seasons and peak seasons. We have already passed the peak season. The off-season in winter is a rest time given to us by the industry. There is no need to waste it."

Tang Ying agreed with this view.

I've been busy for several months, but now that I'm not so busy, it's nice to take more rest.

"How do you plan to adjust?" Chen Ming asked.

He is in charge of the fish pond, and the adjustment of business hours means that the work of the fish pond team has to be rearranged.

"I'll think about it."

Chen Yuan thought for a moment, then continued, "Daqing Juwutang is about to change. The points competition for the last quarter of this year has not yet begun, and it is the end of the year, and our association has not organized any activities. In the cold winter season, the fishing ground should also have some activities. These are the key points that may improve or maintain the business of the fishing ground."

These are Chen Yuan’s preparations.

The parasol that keeps you warm in winter and cool in summer is only one of the external factors. An internal core factor is also needed, that is, the model of the fishing ground. Only by taking these two approaches can we better ensure that the fishing ground can have a certain amount of business during the cold winter season.

"You are a smart guy. If you figure out these tricks, maybe they can really save the business. It would be good if you can do a good job in the daytime market."

Chen Jun was smoking and thinking, but he couldn't come up with a good solution, so he decided to let Chen Yuan worry about it.

Chen Yuan is the right person for this matter.

Anyway, as long as you are prepared and have ideas.

"If you don't have enough brains, then just watch your mouth. If I continue to hear you sighing and groaning, I will bear the consequences myself." Tang Ying glared at Chen Jun and snorted in annoyance.

But the smile on his face became even brighter.

She originally thought it was good to have some free time so that she could have more rest.

Now my son has thought of some ideas and he will definitely be able to figure out some tricks. He is also planning to cancel the night fishing, so we will have enough time to rest at night.

It would be perfect if you could secure some business and have more rest.

"Okay, it's almost time. It's quite cold in the main room late at night. Let's all go to bed and rest early." Clapping his hands, Tang Ying sorted out the melon seed shells on the table, ready to end this dragon gate formation.

"Sleep, sleep."

Chen Jun also put out his cigarette and stood up. He learned about the business situation of the amusement park. Knowing that Chen Yuan had preparations and ideas for the fishing ground, he was no longer so anxious.

Have a good sleep tonight.

"Then we'll go back too."

Chen Guo and his family of four stood up one after another. Lin Cuiju helped clean up the table, and then went back to the backyard.

"I'll go there first."

Yang Yangyang had to go back to the dining area to say hello to Chen Jun and the others, then he made a phone call gesture to Chen Li and walked out.

Chen Li wanted to see him off, but was rejected by Yang Yangyang.

It’s so cold outside, warm up your bed early.

Chen Yuan brushed off the cigarette ashes on his body, said hello to everyone, and went straight upstairs. He was not in a hurry to go to bed, but sat at the desk and turned on the computer.

I'm not in a hurry to go to bed. I'm preparing to improve my business model for the cold winter.

First of all, it’s a question of time.

"Let's open at 8:30 in the morning. If there's no night fishing, let's close at 8:30." Chen Yuan thought for a while and decided on the business hours.

There was no problem in the morning. Anglers came late during this period, and employees all went to work at eight o'clock, so there was no impact.

Mainly at night.

In fact, it’s not impossible to get off work at six o’clock, but occasionally there are still some people who want to fish until eight or nine o’clock. After all, we are open for business, and everyone who comes is a guest, and we can’t refuse them.

Moreover, those who can catch eight or nine fish on this day are not only experienced anglers, but also regular customers of the fishing ground. Just wait as long as you can.

Anyway, there aren't many people, and employees can take turns on duty. With so many employees at the fishing ground, they can only be on duty a few times a month.

"As for the activities." After the fishing ground's business hours are adjusted, the business model will definitely need some changes, not to mention organizing a large event like a carnival to mobilize the market.

At least there should be some discounts to motivate anglers and encourage them to bravely fight the cold winter.

"You definitely can't get the small schoolbag, but you can get some small benefits like the pit crown."

Chen Yuan was typing on the keyboard while thinking.

Pit crowns are a relatively common form of welfare in fishing grounds. The reason why Chen Yuan Fishing Ground has never offered pit crown welfare is because the intensity of other activities is too terrifying.

Compared with activities like Carnival and Fish Freedom, the reward for Pit Crown is simply not worth mentioning.

And Chen Yuan’s reward for the pit crown must not be stingy.

"A fishing champion should have the style of a fishing champion. Discounts on fishing fees are too low-brow. Free fishing fees and free fish are also petty. As for linking it to monthly ticket membership, it's not even good enough."

Chen Yuan took out a cigarette box, took out a cigarette, lit it, and continued editing the content of the article.

"First, the fish must be free, second, the fishing fee must be free, and third, the cash prize must be indispensable."

Triple Rewards.

Cash is the most important.

Nothing is more attractive than red money.

And this is only the reward for the pit crown. Experts may be interested in it, but average anglers certainly don’t dare to think about the pit crown, so it is not very attractive.

Then, it is necessary to cover the welfare of all anglers.

The most direct one is the discount on fishing fees.

"Crackling."

Since the end of last month, Chen Yuan has been thinking about the business model and benefits of the cold winter season. He already has a lot of ideas in his mind, and his fingers are flying on the keyboard at this moment.

The benefits were finalized quickly.

"The next step is the points race."

The points competition can be held once a year, and each fishing association is eligible to host it. The fourth quarter of this year is coming to an end, so we naturally cannot waste this opportunity to earn points.

"Just follow the tournament system. There are prize money as well."

Before the grand prize points competition, the Chongshi Association opened up to new members and attracted more than a thousand members, with the membership fee alone amounting to more than 100,000 yuan.

The fee is used as the funding for fishing association activities.

Chen Yuan would not keep this to himself, nor was there any need to.

And this is just the basics. Chen Yuan will also pay out of his own pocket for the operation and activities of the fishing association.

There is no other reason. The members of the Fishing Association are definitely the most loyal group of customers besides the members of the fishing ground. They are pure fishing enthusiasts and regular customers of the fishing ground.

Don't be stingy.

“After the association membership activities are completed, the next step will be the fishing ground membership activities.”

Chen Yuan's thoughts really did not pause. In the quiet room, there were only the sounds of typing on the keyboard and the sound of smoking.

There are not many members in the fishing ground, only fifty people, but the intensity of their activities is no less than that of the members of the Fishing Association. These are the true founding members and the most valuable members.

"The last one is Laotang."

After finalizing these benefits and activities, Chen Yuan leaned back and stretched.

According to the previous model, the basic plate of Laotang Juwutang will not change, but the fish species will change according to the choices of anglers. Just check the selection progress in the mini program.

The selection rate of silver carp and bighead carp is surprisingly the highest.

"You say silver carp and bighead carp are stupid fish, but you want to beat them at the same time. It's true that one person talks foolishly but his body is honest." Chen Yuan smiled and shook his head.

Many anglers call silver carp and bighead carp "stupid fish", thinking that they are not very smart and will eat any bait. Under normal circumstances, even novices can easily catch them.

I dislike the fact that catching silver carp and bighead carp has no technical skills at all.

But you can vote and choose, but you also want to draw silver carp and bighead carp.

This is because silver carp and bighead carp are easier to catch than black carp, and I want to have a great time catching silver carp and bighead carp.

"It's silver carp and bighead carp, so be it. Even if it's silver carp and bighead carp, Chen Yuan Fishing Ground can give you a big surprise." Chen Yuan raised the corners of his mouth slightly and raised a confident smile.

"correct."

As he was editing the plan, he suddenly thought of something. After quickly editing the outline, he called out the system and went to the lottery page.

"I haven't played for a long time, so just treat it as a lottery."

As for the lottery, it’s okay if it’s free, but if you have to pay something to participate, like using points to participate, it becomes a bit like gambling.

Chen Yuan is not a person who likes to gamble, so after the lottery page came out, he didn’t play it many times.

Moreover, the construction projects in the village have almost been carried out without interruption, and the points are not abundant, so I have not participated in the lottery in the past few months, but I am going to give it a try this time.

Let’s see if the system will give some benefits during the old pond fish replacement phase.

"Wow, it actually works."

Two minutes later, Chen Yuan became excited.

This lottery was indeed effective, and I quickly won the orange prize, which was worth 5,000 points, which is equivalent to 25,000 yuan in real terms.

Chen Yuan immediately went to the mall to exchange and searched for silver carp and bighead carp.

It can actually be exchanged for 110 kilograms of silver carp and bighead carp.

"Wow, this is a giant carp." Chen Yuan was surprised.

In fact, the size of most silver carp and bighead carp is not as exaggerated as that of black carp, although a giant silver carp weighing 186 kilograms was once caught abroad, which set a Guinness World Record and is known as the limit of silver carp and bighead carp.

However, there are limited domestic records. The giant bighead carp caught in a breeding farm in Zhangjiajie was 1.5 meters long and weighed more than 100 kilograms, which was the largest record found in China.

Although there have been giant bighead carps weighing over 100 kilograms caught later, with a value of around 20,000 yuan, the weight was not too exaggerated, only over 100 kilograms.

It can be said that the silver carp that Chen Yuan drew is definitely qualified to compete for the domestic silver carp and bighead carp weight record.

“That saves a lot of money.”

Chen Yuan was very satisfied with exchanging the giant bighead carp. In fact, even if he didn't draw the lottery, he would have bought a hundred-jin giant bighead carp from the mall. After all, the cold winter needs surprises.

Firstly, silver carp and bighead carp are not as valuable as black carp. Secondly, the old pond is a giant pond and this foundation cannot be changed. Except for special fish species, Chen Yuan will get giant fish.

Especially for this kind of silver carp and bighead carp, according to currently known records, their growth limit is not as high as that of black carp. It is absolutely shocking that we can even catch a giant bighead carp weighing hundreds of kilograms.

Chen Yuan continued to draw lots and his luck was indeed good, basically saving half of the points needed to exchange for fish.

After not playing for too long, Chen Yuan began to edit the connection plan for changing the fish species in the old pond, as well as the price of catching silver carp and bighead carp. He checked it one last time and saw that it was not yet eleven o'clock, so he decisively sent it to the group.

The opening statement is simple.

The cold winter calls for surprises.

This is indeed the case. As soon as the message was sent out and the group announcement was replaced, the calm fishing ground community became agitated.
