So you can make a new tourist product - a tour of the Silk Road. Ideally, it would be good to cooperate with the Chinese, Persians, Afghans. But for now, the Afghans have many problems, but I hope our neighbors will get better and third countries will not interfere in internal affairs and they will finally have a long-awaited peace. When everything will be fine with us and it will be fine with us, it will be possible to trade through them, to go to the sea, and this opens up unlimited prospects in trade relations.
However, while we also have the wrong level and scope. We are a small private company, even more simply a private entrepreneur. For such a scale it is necessary to at least become a company at the level of a medium-sized business with a turnover of a couple of tens of millions of dollars. So far this is an impossible dream for us, but the main thing is to set ourselves guidelines and striving for them!
Yes you are right!
In the meantime, we can do just a tour for 5-7 days. With a coverage of 55,000 sq. M. km That is, the Silk Road roads will be included in the tourist project - plain, desert, foothill and mountainous parts. With a visit to the caravanserai, fortresses, castles, mines, smelting workshops, handicraft workshops - on copper, making wool carpets, wooden saddles, pottery workshops, oriental sweets. Including vegetable gardens in different regions with the acquaintance of regional agrotechnical methods, peculiarities of regional cuisine, products, methods and technologies of their processing and cooking. With master cla.s.ses on cooking and cooking sweets, drying fruits, cooking irchalov and bekmesov, halva and casinaki. Learning the basics of healing cooking.
We will also make a small store where our products will be sold for dry fruit, freeze-dried berries, sweets, nuts, jam, marshmallows. Here is an additional advertis.e.m.e.nt.
Tours will include car routes, cycling, horse riding, hiking. Including a visit to groups of rock paintings, with a slide show on paleoecological changes of vegetation and wildlife comparable to the time of creation of rock paintings. That is, the Late Holocene period, about 3,500 - 5,000 years ago. Or you can visit the foothill plain where, some 300,000 years ago, the "Tethys" lay the seocean, where large and powerful sharks were 30-40 meters long, now only stone black teeth 30 centimeters long remained... sometimes they can still be found. Of course, they have become less compared to 1950-1970, but if you look good, you can find it!
Also include a special tour for gold prospectors or search engines for precious and semi-precious stones. Now it's just to arrange, you need to contact the regional environmental department and geological service, register with the tax inspectorate and go ahead. You can just make an appointment to the regional governor, discuss with him a project to launch the tourism cl.u.s.ter, just under the state program, the development of rural areas and the creation of new jobs.
Is it something like farming?
Well, what do you want, farming is not only agriculture, it is also establis.h.i.+ng contacts with local residents, the administration, creating conditions for advertising and attracting foreign investment, creating new reserves. Now 21st century, everything is new, including doing business.
Will the governor accept us?
Where will go? Will take!
You can write to the virtual portal, to offer your idea.
Now it is such a trend!
Well?
Let's try!
As they say, money is not taken for demand!
I hope the governor will be able to organize a reception center for the collection of gold and precious stones. Maybe other villages will be interested in this project?
For a special tour, you can immediately take $ 1,000 from the nose, that is, a person, a tourist.
1 gram we worth 41 dollar 13 cents. Sometimes locals in the river and small mountain rivers find nuggets weighing in grams 12 or even 34. This is almost 500 dollars and 1,400 dollars at once, respectively and a carat of ruby will depend on the origin in the world, they are estimated from $ 75 to $ 3,500. Ours are not Burmese, and not Afghan and not Vakhan, but not the lowest, the price for them is about $ 350. It's not bad too.
True, since 1965 no one has ever found rubies, but who knows, maybe digging in old dumps, on the mountain slopes, and in fortified mines (they are not very deep, tunnels are only 45-76 meters, horizontal) something and find? But turquoise meets the price per carat around $ 25, our turquoise is not the best, grenades at $ 10 per carat, amethysts at $ 16 per carat. Rhinestone on the color, form, form from 1.5 dollars to 40. But diamonds have not been found since 1958, but they say they are?!
You can send tourists to uproot the stumps, because there are a lot of them left in the old ruins of the villages, which were abandoned due to the fact that the water was gone. There are many such villages on the slopes of the mountains, from 1780 to 1978. As the old men say, before the treasure was hidden under roots, especially during the First World War and
Well, how's my idea?
What is good!
Let's go to the governor and get permission for this project!
Well, I leave it all to you, but I want my 15 percent and 15 percent Bro.
As agreed?
Well, while it is difficult to say something definitely... but if it goes, then we will discuss it again. But so preliminary, we still agree with this.
That's good.
Now let's slowly prepare the products for transportation to the warehouse in the city.
By the way, when were our guys supposed to drive up?
At 10 o'clock. This is the usual time, with 10 banks, offices begin to work, rarely anyone who starts work at 9 o'clock.
But they had to understand that the village people get up as soon as the sun rises and go to bed as sunset sets in. Light still in the village often does not happen.
The guys are young, they didn't turn on their brains, they didn't understand what had to come to the village in the morning, they would have had time to do more work before the start of sales, it would be nice to fill the warehouse in the city with the necessary a.s.sortment.
Well, this is a common problem of modern online stores. They begin to sell goods, there is demand, but there is no longer any supply. the administration forgets to update the page on the Internet, there is a product on it and there is no stock in the warehouse. Warehouses are not replenished in time. When they are empty, they can not quickly update the range.
Therefore, for 5-8 days the desired product is missing, some customers are looking for new online stores and leaving old ones. Over time, such problems often recur, and after that the number of regular customers decreases.
After some time, the online store becomes unprofitable and it goes bankrupt. Since he can not compete with the supermarket. Since the online store has to raise prices, taking into account the delivery, they are not compet.i.tively capable. Yes, and sometimes the call center of the store does not work, its employees are too lazy to answer calls. Since the system of remuneration for their work does not depend on their activity, they have fixed pay and rations. What in the capitalist world looks like nonsense... but it is. Rations include a food set - cheap pasta, tea, cookies, canned food, usually 2-3 months before the end of the term. Is it capitalism?
I recalled here a case, such as a large farm owning 3,000 hectares of land, purchased 10 American super tractors for processing the field and harvesting. Each tractor would have $ 75,000. The first year they worked with a bang, the second, the third... and then the purchased in the first year ended - fuel, refined engine oil, factory spare parts. Farmers began to save.

Distributed the buzz of the motor...
Hey, Dara, Baraz h.e.l.lo! Are you already here?
Aha!
Something you came late!
Well this is normal! In the city only offices open!
But this is a village!
Okay, anyway, the online store will only be launched after lunch.
How about advertising?
Well, we have two main ones: online advertising in online newspapers and banner advertising near the roads. The rest is generally not so popular.
Clearly!
Well, enough to cool down, let's load the main samples into the machine.
Good!

Why?
No, I was just surprised by other data! Some prices are lower, others are higher...
Simply, they now correspond to market conjuncture, and not taken from the ceiling.
Good!
This is cousin Behman with Heider and Shapur, they studied the market, watched it, walked around the markets, shopping centers, wholesale markets, found out prices from farmers, and found out data on world prices in China. So the data is more or less relevant to the world.
Interesting! Much work was done by them!
Well done!
But do you know, Mr., that you shouldn't say that? Say the word well done, it's like a blow to the back with a stick!
Why?
Well, this is pride, pride!
Better to say how good they are, bringing happiness!
Wow?! Where is it from?
This is from life!
Well, well, you're probably right, what they are good, bringing us happiness!
