BXBX NOVEL Chapter 90: Persuasiveness
Chapter 90
However, Xiao Wang\'s tone was not too worried. After all, Y City had also had bans before, coming suddenly and leaving just as suddenly.
"Why don\'t we go to the bed and breakfast over there now?" Shen Feixian asked.
In addition to the large flat in the city, they had also booked another bed and breakfast. One was for work, the other was also for work.
That bed and breakfast was more than ten miles away from the reservoir, and apart from the convenience of distance, it also had unique features of the venue.
It was an ordinary farmhouse courtyard built on the back mountain. The development was very incomplete, with only one street lamp at the village entrance. Once you close the yard, no one knows what they are doing, and you can\'t see anything when it gets dark.
The reason why such an ordinary farmhouse courtyard was developed was that most places in Z City could not see snow in winter, while the nearby mountains and forests would have some accumulated snow.
Some citizens who could not see the snow in the city would occasionally drive over to take a look.
It was not yet the season for snowfall, so the bed and breakfast was very quiet, which was good for booking.
Song Jixing nodded, simply packed some food, and drove everyone into the mountains.
Reminded by Shen Feixian, they chose a more distant road into the village, because the closer roads had police stationed to check passing vehicles and personnel relationships on the vehicles.
All this information was collected by Shen Feixian on the public social platform in Z City.
Before getting in the car, Song Jixing called the person in charge of the bed and breakfast in advance and informed him of the time of their impending arrival.
At 1 a.m., a white sedan appeared at the village entrance on time and slowly drove towards the direction of the street lamp.
The dogs at the village gate barked, and lights came on in the nearest yard.
The one who came to receive the few people was an old village cadre. The village entrance was the office building of the village committee, simply two flat houses, which were still built by everyone raising money after the development of tourism in the village.
The simple two flat houses made the surrounding villages very envious, but unfortunately their location was not good, and tourism did not develop.
The old cadre\'s surname was Zhu. He was in his fifties this year. His skin was slightly dark from years of working on the land, making him look even older.
Although old in age, he did things without the slightest perfunctoriness.
He carefully confirmed the identities of Song Jixing and the others with his smartphone and ledger before taking them to the bed and breakfast on a small electric scooter.
It was a very spacious courtyard at the foot of the mountain.
Old Zhu came carrying a quart-sized old-fashioned flashlight, groping the wall to turn on the yellow spotlights in the yard, enthusiastically introducing the facilities in the small courtyard.
"...The yard was swept yesterday, the sheets and covers inside were changed, so you can rest assured. This room is the stove, you can cook for yourself. If you don\'t know how to cook, just knock on the door of the family on the left side of the yard. There are many fresh vegetables in the village that you can try. The chickens and ducks we raise at home are all very good..."
Old Zhu was still talking and stepped out of the small courtyard to point out the direction. He even enthusiastically helped them move their luggage.
"It\'s almost half past one now. Go to rest early! If there is anything, just call me. I won\'t disturb you!" Old Zhu said enthusiastically, still unable to hold back a yawn.
Shen Feixian: "Thank you for your trouble, for taking us here so late. You should go back and rest early too."
Shen Feixian enthusiastically saw Old Zhu out and slipped two hundred yuan into his hand.
It was only right to give some overtime pay for serving them so late at night.
Old Zhu realized the money suddenly stuffed into his hand and instinctively wanted to decline, but he heard Shen Feixian say,
"Tomorrow we want to go up the mountain and walk around. We\'ll have to trouble you to come and guide us then. We won\'t let you work for nothing either, we\'ll pay guide fees."
Holding the money in his hand, Old Zhu patted his chest and promised, "You can rest assured. I grew up around this mountain since I was young. I know the mountain well and will take you there to see tomorrow."
Labor and harvest, extremely reasonable.
After sending off Old Zhu, Shen Feixian briefly arranged the living room of the small courtyard and reconnected the dedicated TV line.
At this moment, there were several more helicopters hovering above the reservoir, shining strong lights down from above.
Judging from the scattered lights around, there were even more people gathered around the reservoir.
Shen Feixian, who had been busy all day, stretched lazily: "Junior sister, have a good rest! It\'s up to you and Elder Bai later!"
Song Jixing didn\'t quite agree with this. It should all depend on Elder Bai.
-
Perhaps considering that city folks got up later, Old Zhu didn\'t come to open the yard until the afternoon the next day.
When he came, he brought them an expected disappointment.
The town called and held a meeting in the morning, saying that there was some troublesome activity from above again, asking villagers not to go into the mountains but to stay at home. At the same time, the surrounding highways were also tightened, only letting vehicles out, not in.
After saying that, Old Zhu comforted them, "Why don\'t you guys walk around the village first. I\'ll take you to see. This activity will be over in two days. I\'ll take you up the mountain then."
Shen Feixian was extremely open-minded about this: "It\'s fine. We just wanted to breathe the fresh air in the mountains. A few days later is a few days later. It\'s good to have just worked for a month and be tired."
"I see your clothes are quite nice, you look spirited in them..."
"My daughter bought them!"
"Your daughter has great taste!"
Shen Feixian chatted with Old Zhu casually, getting acquainted.
The main personnel for this operation were Song Jixing and Bai Ling. Shen Feixian, as the logistics staff, would stay in the yard all the time, paying attention to the situation around.
The powerful internet intelligence capabilities in the city did not work well in the mountains. Many families didn\'t even have internet access, let alone smartphones.
Shen Feixian could only find the most central figure in the village, Old Zhu, to exchange information with.
Even if he couldn\'t collect any useful information, it was better than nothing...
The network in the mountains was not very good, so all the network speeds were used to connect TVs, which slowed down others\' network speeds a bit.
After two days of waiting, Bai Ling\'s impatience had piled up to its peak. Finally Shen Feixian called everyone in front of the TV to do the final rehearsal.
The plan this time was simple. When the fish was about to break through the formation, Song Jixing would send Bai Ling to everyone\'s faces and subdue this fish, in exchange for everyone\'s trust.
As for why it was Bai Ling, it had to do with Bai Ling\'s true form.
Bai Ling was a white dragon, a rather rare race in the Cultivation World.
There were many legends about dragons in this mundane world. They liked dragon totems and liked to call themselves descendants of dragons.
With seniority, persuasiveness could sometimes be great.
