Chapter 494: To the Desert
Liu Xuan frowned, "Miss Wen, the company has a rule that we can't reveal the whereabouts of the young master, if I find out about it, I won't be able to keep my job." ”
Wen Ruan pursed his lips, "I happen to have a bodyguard in Nidu, if you can't keep your job, you can be a bodyguard for me, and I will pay double the salary." ”
Liu Xuan looked at Wen Ruan in disbelief, and was about to say something, when the woman slapped Liu Xuan on the top of the head again, "Miss Wen cured your mother's cough, even if her job is not guaranteed, you have to repay her for this kindness." ”
Liu Xuan was silent for a moment, and then said to Wen Ruan, "The young master should go to the Siman Desert in the Middle East, where there are newly discovered natural gas and oil resources. ”
A large part of the reason why the Sborne family is so rich is that they had a large number of strategic materials during the war, such as oil and the like-
Wen Ruanruo nodded thoughtfully.
Liu Xuan stared at Wen Ruan for a few seconds, and asked suspiciously, "Miss Wen, are you our young master's suitor?" ”
Wen Ruan pursed her lips, "Sort of!" ”
"Then I advise you to dispel the idea of chasing him, the young master will be engaged to the princess at that time!"
Wen Ruan pursed her lower lip slightly, "Haven't you ordered it yet?" ”
Liu Xuan looked at Wen Ruan, who was beautiful and full of confidence, he sighed and didn't say anything more.
……
Knowing that Wen Ruan was going to the Siman Desert in the Middle East, the woman was not very relieved, so she asked Liu Xuan to quit her job and escort Wen Ruan over.
Wen Ruan did not object, Liu Xuan was honest and strong, and being her bodyguard could give her some sense of security.
After all, if you have to go to a distant desert, you are not familiar with the place, and if you encounter any danger, you can take care of it.
There is a small town on the west side of the Siman Desert, which has few residents and looks a little desolate.
Wen Ruan bought herself and Liu Xuan a set of local clothes, hers was a black robe, the wind and sand were too strong, and her face was wrapped in a veil.
It was getting dark, and to enter the desert, you needed locals to lead the way.
Wen Ruan and Liu Xuan found the only hotel in the area and stayed there.
After checking in, Liu Xuan went to talk to the locals about entering the desert, and Wen Ruan walked around the town.
When he returned to the inn, Liu Xuan had already returned, and he found the local people and took them into the desert tomorrow morning.
Maybe too many things have happened recently, and the nerves have been tense, but when they arrived at the small town of Sman, where the environment and conditions were not very good in all aspects, Wen Ruan relaxed a little.
After taking a shower, I quickly fell asleep in bed.
Wen Ruan was woken up in the morning by a knock on the door.
Liu Xuan stood at the door and said to Wen Ruan, "Miss Wen, we're leaving." ”
After a hurried breakfast, Wen Ruan and Liu Xuan, led by the locals, rode their camels into the desert.
The sky is not beautiful, the sky is full of sand and dancing, even if the veil is covered, there is still sand and gravel flying into the delicate neck from time to time, but Wen Ruan is silent, not the slightest squeamish and dissatisfied.
After walking for most of the day, I saw the base of the Sborne family mining in the desert from a distance.
They built two stone houses on the edge of the oasis, surrounded by tents and tool carts.
"Miss Wen, there it is."
Wen Ruan nodded, and instead of immediately approaching the camp of the Sborne family, she asked Liu Xuan to set up two tents a few meters away from them.
Liu Xuan didn't know what Wen Ruan was going to do, but now that he had become her bodyguard, he would naturally do whatever she said.
The locals sent the two over and left.
Liu Xuan set up two tents according to Wen Ruan's request.
After most of the day's journey, Wen Ruan was a little tired, so she went to the tent to rest for half an hour.
Liu Xuan stood outside the tent and looked around alertly.
Wen Ruan slept in a daze, and when she heard someone asking Liu Xuan, she opened the tent and walked out.
The veil obscured most of her face, leaving only a pair of deer eyes outside.
"We're here for an outdoor adventure, stay here for one night and leave."
Wen Ruan's voice is crisp and delicate, her eyes are clear and bright, and she doesn't look like a person with bad intentions.
The other party replied, "The desert environment is harsh and dangerous, so try not to stay long." ”
"Okay."
After the man left, Wen Ruan called Liu Xuan over.
"Take what I have brought, and let's go to the edge of the oasis."
Liu Xuan put a big black bag on his back and followed Wen Ruan to the oasis.
The oasis here is an oasis with crystal clear water and lush trees that resemble beautiful pearls embedded in the desert.
Wen Ruan asked Liu Xuan to help her build a simple stove, she put the herbs she brought into the pot, and boiled a large pot of medicinal soup.
Wen Ruan gave Liu Xuan a cup, "Drink a glass and your throat won't be so dry." ”
Liu Xuan took the cup handed by Wen Ruan and took a few sips in a row.
There were two aunts who came to fetch water, and when they saw Wen Ruan and Liu Xuan, they looked at them curiously.
"What are you drinking?"
Wen Ruan's face was covered by a veil, and the deer's eyes that were exposed were slightly bent, although she couldn't see her appearance clearly, but he could feel that she was smiling brightly, "We are here to venture into the desert, but it is too dry here, and my throat is sore, and there is a foreign body sensation, I have made some medicinal tea myself, and my throat will be much more comfortable after drinking it." ”
Liu Xuan, who drank a cup of medicinal tea, said humbly, "My throat is really a lot more comfortable." ”
The two aunts each touched their throats, and it is common for the weather here to be bad and have uncomfortable throats. Medicines were available in the camp, but the effect was not obvious.
"Girl, may we ask for a drink?"
"Yes!" Wen Ruan took out two disposable cups and handed one to each of the aunts.
After the two aunts finished drinking, they brought a few apples to Wen Ruan, fetched water and returned to the camp.
After the two finished cooking, they found that their throats were really not so dry.
"That girl's medicinal tea is really magical, my throat was still a little dry and sore before, but now it is much more comfortable!"
A male voice with a bit of evil spirit came over, "Two aunts, what kind of medicinal tea is so magical?" ”
It was Mo Zhan, who was in charge of the oil and gas extraction in the desert by the Sborne family.
The head of the Sborne family will have four assistants by his side.
They are equivalent to the four protectors, assisting from the side, passing down from generation to generation, except for the head of the Sborne family, they can not listen to anyone's orders.
And the new young master, if he wants the four assistants to obey him, he must show excellent skills.
Mo Zhan was one of the four assistants, and he was the first assistant to conquer Huo Hannian after returning to the Sborne family.
Mo Zhan was different from the indifference of the other three assistants, he was evil and looked a bit cynical.
From the head of the Sborne family to the aunt who cooks in the kitchen, he can talk.
The aunt usually likes to communicate with Mo Zhan, so she told them about drinking Wen Ruan's medicinal tea.
"Oh? So amazing? ”
