C391 Wasteland

From nine in the morning to three in the afternoon, the entire Cuiping Mountain was in intense bidding, all the way until Ye Qian was the one who made the final sound and only then did everyone's tensed mood begin to loosen.

Although there were people who were happy about the six Marker Stone s' bidding, there was also worry about them.

Moreover, Yunnan was not the only way for them to stock up. For this competition, everyone was more concerned with weighing the pros and cons, testing each other out.

Just like that, the clear standard for the first day had ended. When the competition reached the target, they happily went to the Stone Gambling Assembly's authorities to settle their accounts, and then took away their goods. As for those that didn't get the bid, their faces were filled with dejection. They flung the door open and left, one of them being Feng Tianqi.

After Feng Tianqi left the room, he glared fiercely at the jubilant Liu Mingmei and her group, then flicked his sleeves and left.

Liu Mingmei's small team could be said to have achieved complete victory in this bidding war. They had monopolized four of the six Marker Stone s, and this kind of situation had never happened even once in all of their Stone Gambling Assembly.

Of course, there would always be rewards. These four Marker Stone heads had nearly cost Liu Mingmei a billion in liquid funds. Luckily she had Ye Qian's strong support, otherwise Liu Mingmei really wouldn't know how to deal with tomorrow's hidden bets.

After all the paperwork had been completed, it was almost four o'clock in the morning.

Liu Mingmei turned around and looked at Alice: "Alice, you guys go back first. Deal with these four Marker Stone.

Alice nodded. "Don't worry, CEO. We've already arranged all the follow-up work. We guarantee that you'll be safe!"

Actually, the Yunnan s that came to bid was a difficulty, and transporting back the ore that succeeded in bidding was similarly a difficulty.

However, it was also Liu Mingmei's first time coming here, so she would naturally make arrangements. Ye Qian was not worried about this at all.

Ye Qian only smiled and interrupted: "There's no need to rush to transport that number six ore back, just stay in the hotel!"

Alice was surprised for a moment. Although the sixth ore wasn't a big one, it was quite heavy. Leaving such a thing in the hotel wasn't as easy to operate as she had imagined. Even if it was Alice who won the bid, it would be impossible for them to take away the whole piece of the ore. They would still have to cut out the jade-like flesh from the ore and take it back with them.

Regarding Ye Qian's request, Alice and Zhang Huan only looked at each other, not knowing what to do. In the end, Alice still turned her gaze towards Liu Mingmei, waiting for her attention.

Liu Mingmei also hesitated for a moment, "Ye Qian, is such a big thing suitable to be placed in a hotel? Let Alice and the others take him away and open the stone first! "

Ye Qian squinted his eyes and laughed: "That thing will not be able to get me the jade. At that time, they will throw it away for me as trash. Pausing for a moment, Ye Qian continued: "Let's leave him in the hotel first, when we return tonight, I will let you all see my magic, to let you all see what exactly is inside!"

Ye Qian spoke with a mysterious look on his face.

Seeing Ye Qian being so stubborn, Liu Mingmei could only agree. "Fine, then we'll do as you say!"

Ye Qian said this sentence. Alice and the others had suffered a lot as they busied themselves with everything else. After leaving Ye Qian and Liu Mingmei, the few of them started to mutter to themselves.

"Sigh, I don't know what the CEO is up to, but he actually listened to that pretty boy's words. Hmph, he doesn't look too good just from looking at him!"

"Zhang Huan, I think you might not be able to eat grapes and say that they are sour!"

"F * ck you, the CEO is an icy goddess, how can mortals be blasphemous?" While looking for someone to protect this number six ore, Zhang Huan once again attacked the small and ugly ore: "Humph, damn you, if there's nothing inside tonight, look at how I'll laugh at that pretty boy!"

As he spoke, Zhang Huan was holding back his resentment in his heart.

At the moment, Liu Mingmei's underlings were directly split into two, escorting Number 1, Number 3 and Number 5 to open the stone, and escorting the Number 6 ore back to the hotel. If this scene was placed in any other place, it would definitely attract the attention of tens of thousands of people. However, if it was placed in the Yunnan, it couldn't be any more common.

As for Ye Qian and Liu Mingmei, they took Xiao Ya down the mountain alone.

They had finally gotten the chance to be alone together. Although he was just a burden to her, Ye Qian was still in a good mood. It had been such a difficult trip to the Yunnan, that Ye Qian naturally wanted to take a look around and see the local customs and customs.

Naturally, he grabbed onto Liu Mingmei's little hand, causing Ye Qian to smile charmingly: "Mingyue, it's still early, what's so interesting about this Yunnan, why don't we go take a look?"

Liu Mingmei also cherished the rare time they had spent together, but after hearing Ye Qian's question, Liu Mingmei had a face full of confusion: "I'm not too sure what's so interesting about this Yunnan either, right?"

"What?" "Didn't you come here every year? Logically speaking, you should know this place like the back of your hand!"

Liu Mingmei laughed bitterly: "Even though I come here every year, it's always for work. Basically you are either at a hotel or at the Stone Gambling Venue, how would you have the time to wander around randomly in the Yunnan? It's not like I'm Zhang Xun! "

Ye Qian's face instantly filled with black lines, but he quickly thought of something and giggled: "Luckily we have a local small tour guide! Otherwise, it would really be like a headless fly! "

With that, Ye Qian carried Xiao Ya up and laughed: "Little tour guide, you are a local person with Yunnan that is born and bred here, tell me, big brother, where are your big sister Liu going to play next?"

Xiao Ya giggled as she bit her finger. After thinking for a long time, she finally thought of a suggestion and said: "Big brother, why don't I invite you to my house as guests? Don't look at my home in the cove, but it's filled with specialties, I can guarantee you that you'll have a good time. "

Ye Qian stared at Liu Mingmei who was at the side, asking for her opinion.

However, what Ye Qian did not expect was that not only did Liu Mingmei not object, he even agreed: "Okay, okay, I've always yearned for this kind of mountain life. The city of Yunnan isn't too interesting, it looks like it's about the same as the Linhai, and it's even more interesting compared to the taste of the mountain!"

Ye Qian was helpless, and thought: Maybe this is what the legends say about what is lacking, and what is lacking to make up for it? Liu Mingmei had grown up in the Yanjing, and then, she had always lived in the city, so she was used to seeing the prosperity.

Just like that, a man and woman, together with a little girl, bypassed the Cuiping Mountain, and walked towards the col not too far away. However, this scene seemed to have the feeling of a family of three.

The mountain road on the Yunnan wasn't too bumpy either. After all, although these aboriginals were said to be living in the col, they were still in contact with the urban areas of the Yunnan. They weren't cut off from the world as seen in the books or television.

After walking for less than an hour, Xiao Ya the little girl quickly shouted: "Big brother, Sister Liu, quickly look, quickly look, in front of us is my home's village!"

Borrowing the dim light, Ye Qian raised his head and saw that about a few thousand meters away, there was indeed a peaceful little village.

It was already evening. Logically speaking, lights should be coming from every household. However, that village was like an empty ghost village. There was not a single light, and it was so quiet that it was terrifying.

But Liu Mingmei did not feel that anything was amiss, she just asked Xiao Ya softly: "Xiao Ya, how many families are in your village?"

Xiao Ya's eyes immediately moved, she counted with her fingers: "It seems like there are about 10 households, in the past there were still many people living here. However, later on, some people went to Myanmar to mine ores. When they got rich, they moved to the Yunnan city. So the people who are living here now are all old grandpas and grandpas! "

"Oh, so that's the case!" Liu Mingmei replied with an 'oh', as though she was saying it all.

The three of them continued walking forward, and before long, they arrived at the village entrance.

Xiao Ya stood on the road at the entrance of the village and looked left and right, then said curiously: "That's not right, at this time of the day, everyone would usually chat at the entrance of the village after dinner. Why is there not a single person around today?"

Xiao Ya muttered in her heart, as an ominous premonition started to spread.

While talking, Xiao Ya's footsteps became even faster, all the way towards her own home.

As for Ye Qian, who had entered the village, he already felt that something was amiss, because at this moment, he could already smell the scent of blood. Ye Qian naturally placed Liu Mingmei behind him and softly warned him, "Mingyue, be careful. This place is a little strange!"

Liu Mingmei was shocked, and immediately pulled Ye Qian tightly.

Xiao Ya's home was at the eastern end of the village. It seemed to be the most dilapidated house in the entire village. The wind whistled past, and the wooden house was in ruins. Although there was a mud wall in front of the house, it was almost useless.

Xiao Ya quickly pushed open the wooden fence at the entrance of the courtyard. This place was not locked at all.

"Abba, Abba, I'm back!" Xiao Ya called out after entering the door.

However, no one responded.

Xiao Ya immediately became nervous and her voice started to tremble, "Ah Pa, Ah Di, I'm back!"

After shouting once again, Xiao Ya still did not hear a response.

A pair of young and tender hands gently pushed open the door frame, which had long been turned into two pieces of rotten wood, and Xiao Ya walked in.

Not long after, Xiao Ya's screams could be heard once again, "Ah …"

Ye Qian and Liu Mingmei promptly looked at each other, then Ye Qian grabbed onto Liu Mingmei's waist. With a flash, they entered the house. However, the scene in the pitch black cabin caused even Ye Qian's scalp to go cold, while he trembled in fear.

"Ye, Ye Qian, this, what happened here? "So, so terrifying …"
