“Hey, Lao Bai, do you think that foreign chick will come back?”
Wang Pangzi saw Bai Tian Yu still standing there acting cool, and said with a wry smile.
“She will definitely come back. Without Tianxing Fengshui, they won’t be able to find the Jingjue Ancient City!”
Before Bai Tian Yu could answer, Lao Hu spoke first.
“That’s right. Only Tianxing Fengshui can help them find the tomb clusters along the way, and only then can they be sure they’re not lost!”
Nodding, Bai Tian Yu patted Lao Hu’s shoulder, indicating that he was right.
“Of course, they could also find a reliable guide, but these days, guides are all afraid of death. Who would dare enter the desert during the wind season?”
“You’re joking, apart from the three of us, no one else would dare to enter the desert at this time!”
“Right, Lao Bai, what do you mean by wind season?”
Wang Pangzi was actually quite interested in the wind season, he asked, confused.
“Wind season, is the most dangerous season in the desert. During this season, strong winds can blow up anywhere in the desert at any time. Once a sandstorm forms, no matter how many people there are, unless they find shelter, they will be buried alive!”
As someone who has been to the desert, Lao Hu was the most qualified to explain, and he said it in a way that was easy to understand.
“Lao Bai, how can you be sure that the Jingjue Ancient City can only be found during the wind season?”
“Lao Hu, haven’t you thought about why the Jingjue Ancient City has never been found?”
“It’s because people in the desert know that the wind season is the most dangerous, so no guide would dare go deep into the desert during this season. Even if they do go in, they won’t go very far before giving up. That’s why nobody has found it.”
“The Jingjue Ancient City has always been in the deepest part of the desert, a place where even the saxaul trees can’t grow. No one dares to go there, so of course they haven’t found it!”
After being reminded by Bai Tian Yu, Lao Hu also understood why the Jingjue Ancient City had never been found.
It was so deep!
“So, isn’t it very dangerous for us to go?”
“No, you’re overthinking. If we bring that bunch of useless archaeologists, then we’d be in real danger!”
Shaking his head, Bai Tian Yu didn’t believe that with his own skills and Lao Hu’s guidance, they would be inferior to the group of useless archaeologists in the original story.
“That’s true. What are those people doing going there?”
“Isn’t it better for them to stay at home at the age of fifty or sixty? Why go to the desert to die? I really don’t know what they’re thinking!”
Wang Pangzi didn’t really understand what those people were thinking. Even though he, Wang Pangzi, had never been to the desert, he knew it was full of dangers. But these people thought they could just find a guide and everything would be fine.
It was simply a pipe dream!
“Who knows, maybe they think all you need is willpower to overcome the desert.”
“But they don’t know that in the desert, you could die if you don’t drink water for a day. Those armchair scholars don’t understand the terror of the desert!”
You know, even though Lao Hu had entered the desert several times, he could still die at any time. It was even more dangerous for those archaeologists who were physically and mentally weaker than the soldiers.
“Alright, it’s getting late. Let’s go out for dinner!”
Seeing that it was already late, Bai Tian Yu suggested.
“Okay, let’s go for a hotpot!”
When it came to eating, Wang Pangzi thought of hotpot.
Rolling his eyes, Bai Tian Yu knew Wang Pangzi would only think of hotpot. He waved his hand.
“Let’s go, hotpot!”
Since Wang Pangzi liked hotpot, Bai Tian Yu naturally obliged.
Of course, Wang Pangzi would be the only one eating the hotpot, they could also order some other dishes.
Anyway, ever since he came back with money, Wang Pangzi had been eating nothing but hotpot, to the point that the two of them were almost sick of it.
But Wang Pangzi still ate like there was no tomorrow. He never got tired of it. It was ridiculous.
As they went out, they saw Da Jin Ya walking towards them in a hurry.
“Jin Ye, what’s going on? You’re in such a rush!”
“Yo, the three of you are going out to eat, right? Come on, let’s go, I’ll treat you to Quanjude!”
Seeing that Bai Tian Yu and the others were locking the door and about to go out, Da Jin Ya knew what they were doing, and quickly said.
“Alright, alright, let Jin Ye treat you today!”
Seeing that Da Jin Ya was going to treat them, Bai Tian Yu quickly accepted, not giving Wang Pangzi a chance to refuse.
Otherwise, who knows if this guy would suggest going to eat hotpot. They were already full of it.
“Okay, the three of you can eat as much as you want, I’ll pay!”
Seeing that Bai Tian Yu gave him so much face, Da Jin Ya said generously.
“Well done!”
Seeing that Bai Tian Yu readily accepted Da Jin Ya’s invitation, Lao Hu gave Wang Pangzi a thumbs up behind his back.
Raising an eyebrow, Bai Tian Yu was slightly proud of himself.
“The three of you, the things you wanted, I’ve taken care of them all. Except for the candy factory and the clothing factory, which need to go through the process, I’ve negotiated for the courtyard there. I’ll give you the keys when we go out later.”
At the dinner table, Da Jin Ya raised his glass and said.
“Okay, we’ll go have a look after dinner, then each of us will choose one. Jin Ye, do you want one too?”
Nodding, Bai Tian Yu swallowed the roast duck in his mouth. It was truly genuine roast duck, completely different from the sweet roast duck in Jinling.
“Ah, the three of you are actually preparing one for me too!”
Da Jin Ya was surprised. He didn’t expect that he was included.
“That’s right, although you didn’t go into the tomb with us, you’ve helped us so much with selling antiques, and you’ve been running around for us. Jin Ye, we’ve already accepted you as one of us!”
Waving his hand, Bai Tian Yu raised his glass and clinked it with Da Jin Ya’s, happily saying.
Da Jin Ya was a really good person. He managed to get the courtyard for them in just a few days. Originally, they thought it would take much longer.
Who knew it would be done today, and he even managed to secure the surrounding ones as well.
“Yeah, Jin Ye, you’re our brother now!”
Lao Hu also raised his glass and clinked it with Da Jin Ya’s.
“And me!”
Seeing this, Wang Pangzi quickly picked up his glass and clinked it with Da Jin Ya’s too.
“From now on, we share our good fortune and face hardship together!”
“Come, cheers!”
The four of them happily raised their glasses and clinked them together.
“Hey, by the way, how did it go between you guys and Miss Yang?”
“Oh, don’t even get me started. That foreign chick never even looked at me!”
When it came to Shirley Yang, Wang Pangzi started to complain.
“Cut it out, Pang Ye, I know you. Your mouth is like it’s smeared with honey. You must have offended her!”
“That’s right, Fatty talks nonsense all the time. If I hadn’t covered his mouth, who knows what nonsense he would have said!”
