An imaginative business name is a surefire way of ensuring success. Ask farmer Xiao Long.
Xiao's inn, Cangpofu (or literally, "support from a granary on the hillside"), at the foot of Huanghua Lakeside Great Wall in Huairou district is well known among the local peasants and tourists, as well as domestic and overseas travel agencies.
Xiao gave his inn this name 10 years, basing it on a local legend. It is said an old woman once dug a hole from which millet gushed out. This place is located right in the hills behind Xiao's backyard.
