Chapter 325 Oasis in the Desert

in agreement, "Yu Jing, this name sounds nice, I think it's good too. Wu shi, please don't disappoint the King's good intentions. This is something many people have begged for but couldn't get. The Ki...Ni Wan pursed her lips, a look of displeasure on her face. "Your master has put so much thought into you, how come you don't even want to write him back"

"Um..." Qin Luoyan twitched the corner of her mouth, giving an unnatural smile, then tilted her head and thought hard, trying to use a modern woman's thinking to figure out what a man who thinks with his lower body was thinking.

Just when Ni Wan was getting a little impatient, Qin Luoyan's eyes lit up. Then she walked to the bedside, took out a silk handkerchief from her bosom, wrapped something in it, and then put the wrapped object into a lacquered box. After doing all this, she seemed still a little uneasy, and used the nearby candle to drip wax on the edge of the lacquered box, sealing it with wax so that no one would dare to open it in advance.

Nian Wan saw her actions and couldn't help but facepalm, "You don't trust us at all Do you think we dare to touch the master's things casually"

"I'm afraid the box might break and everything inside will fall out." Well, that excuse was a bit flimsy, but she really couldn't think of anything better.

Niwan took the lacquered box, said nothing, and turned away coldly.

Qin Luoyan only then let out a sigh of relief. After a day of turmoil, she was indeed quite tired, so she quickly washed up and went to sleep.

After resting and recuperating at Li's courtyard, the team had shaken off the fatigue of their days of travel. Logically, they should have set out for Gengjin's origin to purchase Gengjin now. However, Li Yanshan didn't seem eager to leave immediately.

On the contrary, Li Zhongzao claimed that they were too lazy to make a trip to Bian Guan, so he wanted to take them around to experience the local customs and scenery. They weren't here on vacation! Li Zhongzao's actions are truly suspicious.

And he wasn't inviting everyone to go sightseeing, only Qin Luoyan and Xiao Fan and others. This made his motives even more questionable. However, as the highest leader of this group, Li Yunfan just had to nod his head, and it seemed like the others didn't have the right to voice their opinions, so the itinerary was decided like that.

Li Zhongzao prepared three carriages. He rode in one with Li Yunfan and Qin Luoyan, Xiao Fan, Xiao Lao, and the woman who claimed to be Xiao Fan's wife rode in another, and the other craftsmen traveling together rode in the third.

The carriage swayed as it drove out of the city, from the North City Gate, all the way along the post road.

The wind and sand at the border were quite strong. Qin Luoyan lifted the curtain several times, but she could only see the vague outlines of some distant mountain ranges in the swirling sandstorm. In this kind of weather, to go out for a mountain trip, does Li Zhongzao really think that everyone's intelligence is offline

However, seeing Li Yunfan's calm expression, she guessed that the real procurement of Gengjin might be about to begin. Traveling and sightseeing was probably just a way for them to avoid others.

As expected, an hour later, the carriage stopped on a path between sand dunes. Li Zhongzhao got out of the carriage, but after a while he got back in, this time with several black blindfolds in his hand. He handed one to Qin Luoyan: "Master Qin, there are rules in this mountain. You have to wear this black blindfold before entering."

Qin Luo'yan glanced at Li Yunfan. Seeing that Li Yunfan nodded to her, she then removed the blindfold.

Li Zhongzao rode his carriage to the other two carriages and delivered blindfolds. Qin Luoyan held the blindfold and couldn't help but ask Li Yunshan, "Why didn't he give you a blindfold"

Li Yunfan sighed helplessly, "Do you think I need to I'm also surnamed Li."

Qin Luoyan had nothing to say. Thinking about it this way, the source of Gengjin was in the hands of the Li family. It's no wonder that if it were an ordinary force, it would have been dug out long ago, only these mysterious families could possess treasures and protect themselves.

After everyone was blindfolded, the carriage began to sway again. This time, it didn't take long. Although there wasn't a timer, Qin Luoyan felt that they had been traveling for about half an hour. The carriage was very bumpy, and it seemed like they weren't on a normal road.

"We're here." After the coachman shouted outside the carriage, everyone waited for Li Zhongzao's signal before taking off the black cloth.

Upon dismounting their carriages, everyone discovered they had arrived at a secluded valley nestled between hills. The surrounding area was dominated by sandy dunes, but this valley offered a lush oasis: babbling streams, shady trees, verdant grass, grazing cattle and sheep, and an elegant bamboo pavilion right in the center. The pavilion was enormous, seeming to consist of dozens of rooms at first glance. Directly in front of it stood a grand gate adorned with the inscription "Bi Luo Ge" in bold characters.

Next to the archway hung a bell, one foot long and wide. Li Zhongzao stepped forward and shook the rope of the bell. Soon someone came out from the other end of the archway.

A woman in her thirties, dressed as a villager, came out. She had a smile on her face when she saw Li Zhongzao, “Li Ge, you’re finally back. The village head has been waiting for a long time.”

“Didn’t I rush back this morning The master said he wanted to make some practical things, so I specially asked people to bring the best craftsmen from Nanyue. If it's convenient now, can we go see the master” Li Zhongzao said.

The woman nodded quickly, "Of course it's convenient, the master has been waiting impatiently, Li Ge, you bring your people and follow me."

After she finished speaking, the woman led the way ahead, while Li Zhongzao and his entourage walked towards the bamboo house.

Qin Luoyan walked beside Li Yunshen, unconsciously looking at this oasis in the desert. What shocked her was that there was no water source around the oasis. The desert wouldn't want to dig deep wells inland, so where did the water here come from Moreover, geographically speaking, this place didn't seem like a place where an oasis could be formed. There was only one possibility, this oasis was man-made.

Human hands had created this oasis, the thought struck Qin Luoyan with a jolt. This Li family was truly wealthy and extravagant, even undertaking something as audacious as moving mountains like Yu Gong did.

"What are you thinking about Watch your step," Li Yanshan saw Qin Luoyan lost in thought and almost stepped on the stairs, so he couldn't help but remind her.

Qin Luoyan came back to her senses and swallowed: "This is an artificial oasis, isn't it"

“Did you figure it out” Li Yun’s eyes flashed with surprise, then he let out a relieved sigh. He had long been aware of this woman’s intelligence. “You’re right, the master of this estate is also surnamed Li. He’s an elder from our Li family. It’s a good place to avoid, but he prefers it here. He says the feng shui is excellent, so he used a lot of manpower and resources to create this oasis. Don’t you think he’s crazy”

It's definitely sick, a rich person's disease!

Qin Luo yan gasped, she could only sigh in admiration, you guys' local big shots in this city really know how to play!
