What is the source of income for those who choose to settle in Dali, Lijiang and other places?

I don’t know when, suddenly there was a "literary trend", and everyone ran away from big cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou when traveling, and turned to small cities like Dali, Shangri-La, and Lijiang. In fact, I also have I want to settle down and live in these places. After all, prices in second- and third-tier cities are not as high as in big cities. More importantly, the environment is really good.

Then let me share my thoughts:

?1. Open an inn or folk custom.

Take Lijiang as an example. The house price is about 4,000 to 5,000 square meters. Rather than being a house slave in a big city for the rest of your life, it is better to buy a small inn in Lijiang. And since there is an endless stream of tourists in a tourist city, and Yunnan is like spring all year round, there will be no off-season or peak season due to weather reasons.

My parents’ friends came from Shanghai to Lijiang. The couple ran a small inn with six or seven rooms, and their monthly income reached about 20,000 yuan. By the way, they also made friends. I found a lot of like-minded people.

2. Open a postcard shop or handicraft shop

When traveling, especially to such a popular place, you must bring back special products as souvenirs or as gifts. Therefore, original handicraft stores will have a booming business. For example, when I go out to play, I will definitely go in and buy some souvenirs when I come across this kind of store with local characteristics. The prices in these stores are generally not low. Let’s talk about postcards again. Today’s young people really have a special liking for retro items like postcards. Things with such characteristics as “blessings and greetings from so many miles away” are very touching. The most important thing is that it doesn’t cost anything to help send postcards. There is no cost.

3. Sing in a bar

If you have the talent of singing, being a resident singer in a bar or inn is really a good choice, at least to support yourself. The question is, if you are lucky, you may be noticed by the producer and become an artist by releasing a record or something.
