In this golden October, on the 27th day of 2024, we embarked on a joyful and sunlit team outing to a farmhouse retreat. During this event, we immersed ourselves in nature—picking fresh fruits with our own hands, savoring quiet moments, appreciating the beauty of the great outdoors, and experiencing the thrill of catching fish. The endless fun left us utterly enchanted, filling us with a profound sense of harvest joy.

At 2:00 PM, everyone gradually arrived at the activity site. Some showcased their singing talents, others patiently cast fishing lines, some gathered around the stove for tea and chatter, a few engaged in the "hand exercise" of mahjong, while others delighted in vegetable picking. In short, everyone relished this fulfilling and joyous time.

Coming to the farmhouse was not just about escaping urban hustle and bustle for a moment of peace and relaxation—more importantly, it was about savoring authentic, hearty farmhouse cuisine. After an afternoon of activities, as dusk fell, we sat down together to reward our appetites. Each specialty dish at the farmhouse exuded rich rustic charm, making mouths water: Farmhouse Papaya Braised Duck Pot: The sweetness of papaya melded perfectly with the richness of duck, leaving a lasting aftertaste with every bite. Bamboo Tube Rice: Fresh bamboo tubes stuffed with rice and assorted ingredients, roasted over fire—the bamboo’s fragrance intertwined with the rice’s tenderness, creating a unique flavor. Homegrown Vegetables and Freshly Raised Fish: Every bite radiated freshness and health. Steamed Mountain Stream Fish in Bamboo: Petite fish steamed to perfection in bamboo tubes, their flesh delicate and flavorsome. Earthen Kiln Chicken: Traditionally roasted in a clay kiln, with golden crispy skin and juicy, tender meat—simply divine. These dishes not only satisfied our palates but also deepened our appreciation for the rustic ingredients and nature’s bounty.

Through this Dakang Jincaiyuan retreat, we gained not only happiness but, more importantly, stronger bonds and mutual support among colleagues. Moving forward, Youplus will continue exploring innovative event formats to strengthen corporate culture, striving to foster a more harmonious and cohesive work environment as we march toward shared success.
