Chapter 32

r, and I knelt on the ground.Sun Lao San bowed to the incense burner with his hands clasped together. "This plan's future is uncertain, its path fraught with danger. If we die here in this tomb, we wi..."Big Brother Sun spoke first, 'Head, me and Third Brother Yunfeng have already discussed it, we're planning to go to Dongguan for a bit of fun, something around May Day. For the next job, let Head arrange it.'"

“Oh The three of you are going to Dongguan” He looked at the three of us with some surprise.

"Well, yeah, the three of us. Look at his head, Yunfeng is so big now, he still doesn't know anything. We should take him out to broaden his horizons."

Although the boss said this was to fool people, what he said wasn't wrong. Back then, the industry Miss worked in was booming.

In 1999, Beijing Changqing Tai Catering Group was established. Many people don't know that the headquarters of this group's female boss is in Dongguan, and Beijing Changqing is later known as Shangtian Renjian.

At that time, the highest service standards in the country were one in Dongguan and one in Beijing, so Sun Lao Da deliberately said he was going to Dongguan to play.

He took the bait, and he went back to Beijing the next day. Before leaving, he told us to have a good time and that we should wait for him to contact us when there was more work.

As for us, of course, we remained in Shun De working on our plans. We moved to a new place and didn't go anywhere else.

On Mount Fei'e, near the cemetery, there were over 20 acres of rice fields. The eldest brother, posing as an overseas investor, bought them all within less than twenty days. Money really makes things easier.

We bought the paddy fields nearby, and we had people build a fence around the area. Our home was also located at the foot of the mountain where fireflies were found. There used to be several bungalows there, which have since been demolished and turned into green spaces for Shunfeng Park.

That night, a man bought three young calves. This kind of cattle was what the man had specifically sought out, called Charolais cattle. These cows grow the fastest and when they are almost grown up, they are also very strong.

We calculated that with good feed, a Charolais calf can reach maturity in as little as five months. If we were to use them for pulling stones, it would probably take about four months.

One day, we received a delivery of a thermal shelter and some supplies. That night, we lowered the calf using ropes. Even though it was just a calf, it weighed over a hundred pounds, and the problem was that it wouldn't cooperate! It kept kicking its legs and headbutting us. We ended up sweating buckets getting it down there.

That opening is just the right size, not too big. If the bull were any bigger, it wouldn't fit.

In the world of tomb raiding, this is unprecedented. Raising cattle in a tomb I can't fathom how Third Brother's mind worked back then.

Set up the tent below, drive a stake into the ground, and tie the cow to it.

For those months, those three calves were our ancestors. We begged them to eat their feed, feeding them eight times a day at the very least. We made sure they ate until they were full. The ground outside the underground chamber was damp and wet, and every night, Lao San would crawl out of his tent to check on the calves, making sure they were alright.

I only go down sometimes, most of the time I secretly send down ropes with water, food, and cattle feed in the evenings.

After you've sent the others down, cover the entrance to the tunnel with sod.

During the day, I usually sleep in my hut. I have a small telescope and when I have free time, I'll take it out and look around, checking to see if our fence has collapsed. Sometimes, if I'm feeling restless, I'll go for a walk and look for Li Jing.

> Two months passed, and Li Jing entered her senior year of high school.

I bought three jin of chicken cakes that day, and as usual, I carried the chicken cakes to go play with her. As soon as I arrived at her house, I saw Li Jing sitting on the bed with her legs hugged, her face very unpleasant.

"Xia Jing... what's wrong I brought you some chicken cakes.

">

Li Jing's pretty face turned pale, she bit her lips tightly and stared at me intently.

She suddenly threw a pillow at me.

"Xiang Yunfeng! Why did you lie to me!"

"

Wang Qiang told me everything! You're not even a student from Yicheng Middle School! You're not even from Shun De!

"

“You liar! You’re a liar!” she shouted at me with bloodshot eyes.

I took two steps back, my hand trembled, and the cake fell to the ground.

Everything scattered on the floor.a chance to escape."> But it all depends on you."Huh""No way," these rammed earth walls are incredibly thick, there could even be people buried inside. If things really came to this..."Where on earth...
