Wu Feng pushed open the door and went in. He pulled a chair and sat by the bed.
"Hmm? Who are you?"
An Liman turned around and saw that the person who came was an unfamiliar face. He could not help but be a little puzzled.
"You must be An Liman." Wu Feng glanced at him and went straight to the point,"I'm the leader of the Capital City archaeological team. I want to hire you to be our guide and bring us into the desert. As long as you agree, we can discuss the amount of remuneration.”
"Enter the desert? Friends, it's windy season now. Do you want to die?”An Liman looked at Wu Feng as if he was looking at a fool. He shook his head repeatedly and refused to agree no matter what."No, no, you should find someone else!”
As someone who was familiar with the geographical environment of the desert, he naturally knew the dangers of entering the desert during the windy season.
Although he was greedy, he was not a fool!
"Are you really not going?" Wu Feng asked again.
An Liman originally wanted to refuse, but when he saw that Wu Feng seemed to be really anxious to find a guide, his eyes rolled and he suddenly changed his words."Ah... It's not impossible to go, but I have conditions!”
She saw him suddenly change his mind.
Wu Feng raised his eyebrows and immediately guessed what he was thinking.
However, he still nodded. Then tell me."
"Well... First, you have to bail me out, and then... You still have to let me take back my camel. Do you still have it…" An Liman paused for a moment.
"Also, the reward this time."
"Twenty thousand dollars." Wu Feng interrupted.
An Liman's eyes widened in joy.
Twenty thousand dollars?
His previous customers had never been so generous before!
But he thought so in his heart.
"Twenty thousand?" he asked. It was too little, at least…Double it again?"
Obviously, seeing Wu Feng's generosity, An Liman's thoughts became active.
"Also, I have to decide the exact time of departure!”
An Liman crossed his legs and looked relaxed. He felt that he had Wu Feng in his grasp, so he began to act without restraint.
In any case, if Wu Feng did not agree in the end, he would not suffer any losses.
However, if he agreed, he could earn a good sum of money. Why not?
"An Liman, I heard that you have been relying on those camels and donkeys for a living all these years, right?”
Wu Feng suddenly said.
An Liman was stunned for a moment." That's right.”
"That's right. When I entered the detention center just now, I happened to see a few camels tied to the door.”Wu Feng shook his head with a regretful expression.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk. From the looks of it, I'm afraid it's been a few days since I've been fed. I'm so skinny that I'm almost skin and bones.”
"I also heard from the director that in two days, when these camels die, they will be sent to the slaughterhouse and made into bacon.”
Hearing this, An Liman immediately became anxious.
"Impossible! He promised me that he would feed my camels on time!”
"Besides, this is a society ruled by law. How can we kill camels?!”
He waved his hands repeatedly, his face filled with disbelief.
Wu Feng laughed coldly and said disdainfully," Tsk, a society ruled by law is to manage people. It has nothing to do with camels. Do you think your camels are protected animals?”
"This, this…No, I want to go out, I want to go out!”An Liman stood up abruptly and was about to rush out of the door.
However, he was pulled back by Wu Feng.
"What are you going out for? Don't forget, you're still locked up.”
"Uh…" Didn't you say you were going to bail me out?”
"That was just now. Now, I suddenly don't want to think about it anymore. After all, you're not the only guide. Besides, your camel is about to die. How are you going to take us to the desert?”Wu Feng shook his head and got up to leave.
"Wait!" An Liman quickly pulled Wu Feng's clothes and said anxiously,"I... I'm willing to go to the desert with you as long as you promise to let my camel go!”
"Are you really willing?" Wu Feng lowered his head and looked at him suspiciously.
"Really, really!" An Liman nodded frantically.
"Tsk, but I'm not willing. What should I do?”Wu Feng said playfully.
At this moment, An Liman finally saw the teasing in Wu Feng's eyes.
But when he thought of his camel, he gritted his teeth and said,""I beg you, take me out…As long as my camels are safe and sound, I will listen to whatever you want to do!”
After hearing this answer, Wu Feng's lips curled up slightly.
"That's right. Come with me.”
.....
A few minutes later.
Wu Feng walked out of the detention center.
An Liman followed closely behind him.
"Hiss…How is that possible?" When the director saw An Liman come out, he was shocked."An Liman is as stubborn as a donkey. He was convinced so quickly this time?”
Especially when he noticed An Liman's honest appearance, he almost thought his eyes were playing tricks on him.
This young man called Wu Feng seemed to be really powerful!
"Haha." Seeing this, Professor Chen also smiled and said,"I knew it. With Mr. Wu taking action, things would definitely go smoothly.”
After that, Professor Chen personally appeared and temporarily bailed out An Liman. After discussing the location and time of departure on the spot, they returned to their respective residences to rest.
At night, in the guest house.
"Senior Wu, I'm curious how you managed to convince An Liman.”Xue Li Yang sat beside Wu Feng and asked with interest.
Wu Feng smiled and briefly explained what had happened.
After hearing this, everyone came to a realization.
"Haha, Senior, I didn't expect you to be so black-bellied!”
Fatty was amused.
Originally, he had always thought that Wu Feng was an expert who did not have any feelings. He did not expect him to have such a black-bellied side!
"Fatty, I advise you not to spout nonsense. Be careful that Senior will bury your two taels of meat!”Old Hu smiled and joined in the teasing. For a moment, the tense atmosphere was gone.
Xue Li Yang didn't say anything. She just looked at Wu Feng quietly, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.
She realized that along the way, Wu Feng had too many shining points!
Not only were his methods extraordinary, but even those seemingly difficult problems would be easily resolved by him.
As long as he was by her side, she would feel an invisible sense of security…
No wonder Grandpa's notes always said that this was a man full of miracles!
Wasn't that the case?
........
Two days later.
An Liman personally selected twenty camels and loaded all the equipment and resources that everyone had brought onto the camels. He also brought a large amount of bean cakes and salt.
Just like that, the archeological team headed to the vast desert under his lead.
According to the plan, the first part of the journey would start from Bosten Lake and head southwest.
He walked west along the Peacock River until he found the ancient river channel that led south.
Along the way, the vast and deep blue lake water dazzled people. Inadvertently, they had the illusion that they had reached the end of the world.
After walking for about half a day.
Ye Yixin suddenly walked to Wu Feng's side and whispered,""Brother Wu, I think the professor can't hold on much longer. Can we take a break first?”
Actually, it wasn't just Professor Chen.
After entering the desert, everyone began to rush forward.
Due to the various equipment used by the archeological team, each camel carried a heavy load. When they moved forward, they could only rely on their two legs to walk half the way and ride the camel half the way.
In such a harsh environment, it was undoubtedly very exhausting.
Wu Feng glanced at everyone and shook his head helplessly.
The physical fitness of the archeological team was really terrible!
He glanced at An Liman and stopped."You can rest, but you can only rest for fifteen minutes at most.”
An Liman understood and nodded. He called the other camels to stop.
"I disagree!" At this moment, Chu Jian shouted in dissatisfaction,""Everyone has been rushing for such a long time. Why is there only a 15-minute break?”
