An internally divided city will eventually affect Qin Yao's layout and interests, so precautions must be taken to avoid serious problems in the future!

"Yes, Mr. Qin, I will start preparations today." Ren Tingting said decisively.

She didn't want to ask about the inside story and reasons, she just wanted to implement Qin Yao's instructions.

Qin Yao nodded, stood up and said, "I estimate that I will not be in Fucheng for a long time, and I will leave all the group's affairs to you."

Ren Tingting sent him out of the office with a serious look on her face: "Don't worry, I will help you take care of your family business."

"Thank you..." Qin Yao said sincerely.

It's not easy to conquer a country, but it's even harder to defend it!

The group is now able to maintain a certain amount of expansion every year, and Ren Tingting is indispensable.

"You're welcome."

Ren Tingting smiled silently, paused slightly, and then said: "This is what I should do."

Two days later.

At dusk.

Treasure Island Sun Moon Lake.

A boatman wearing a bamboo hat and linen clothes, with his skin tanned by the sun, lowered his head to lock his boat and walked up the slope with his sculls.

"Uncle, can you take us into the lake?" At this moment, two young men, a man and a woman, suddenly walked towards each other, and the tall and burly man among them said with his fists clasped.

"No, no, the sun has set and we can't enter the lake anymore." The boatman shook his head repeatedly.

"Why can't we enter the lake when the sun sets?" The girl with a graceful figure and a heroic face asked doubtfully.

"Are you from the mainland?" the boatman looked at them and asked suddenly.

"Ah? Yes." The girl was slightly startled and said in surprise: "Did you recognize our accent?"

The boatman shook his head: "No, because everyone in Baodao knows the legend of Sun Moon Lake, and no one would choose to come here at night."

"What legend can you tell me?" the girl said.

The boatman glanced at the sky and nodded slightly: "It's still early, so I'll tell you a few words...

Sun Moon Lake can be visited during the day. The scenery is extremely beautiful and it is a good place to travel.

But you must not enter the lake at night.

Because it is said that many boat accidents occurred in the lake and many people drowned.

Every night, these resentful spirits will come out for air, so people who come here at night can easily see numerous ghost figures when they look at the calm lake surface.

If you leave the lake later, you can even see densely packed eyes in the lake when night falls."

"Have you seen these things?" the girl asked.

The boatman nodded and said with lingering fear: "I once saw those dense eyes when I was locking the boat, and I was almost scared out of my mind. From then on, I never dared to come back late when I left the boat. I always rushed before the sun set. Come ashore.”

"Can we borrow your boat?" Hearing this, Qin Yao suddenly said.

Regarding the hidden stakes on the treasure island, he only knew about the nine-story gray pagoda of the Yellow Emperor Temple and the sharp-edged Ghost Head Sword in the Yulong Mountains.

Therefore, after logging into the treasure island, he first took Zhang Ling to the Yulong Mountains, but he did not find the Ghost Head Sword. Then he went to the Huangdi Temple, but he also did not see the nine-story gray pagoda.

It seems that the time has not come yet. After all, in history, the time when this Feng Shui war occurred was in the 1990s.

But after coming, it was not his style to leave without doing anything, so he took Zhang Ling to Sun Moon Lake, intending to explore the truth behind the strange stories about Sun Moon Lake...

"This boat is where I eat. The family's livelihood depends on ferrying." Faced with Qin Yao's request, the boatman waved his hands and shook his head.

"Ten pieces of ocean." Qin Yao said.

Boatman: "..."

A little while, in the sparkling lake water, Qin Yao sat on the bow of the boat and gently paddled his oars.

Zhang Ling sat in the cabin and watched the setting sun turn the turquoise lake water into golden color.

In the distance, bounded by the island, the northern half of the lake is shaped like a round sun, and the southern half of the lake is shaped like a crescent moon. This creates a beautiful scene of green mountains surrounded by clear water, and bright pools surrounded by green beads.

Such beautiful scenery and natural romance.

"I'm traveling thousands of miles with you, watching the sea and lakes, right?" Zhang Ling said with a smile as he reached out and tucked a strand of hair from his forehead behind his ears.

Qin Yao rowed the boat slowly and said with a smile: "Of course...after leaving the treasure island, we have to go to four cities, covering almost half of China."

Zhang Ling pursed his lips and asked, "Have you traveled such a long distance with others?"

Qin Yao shook his head: "No. I have never traveled such a long distance myself, let alone with others."

Zhang Ling stared at his face without blinking and asked softly: "Can I ask a personal question?"

"sure."

"Why have you never gotten married?" Zhang Ling looked playful: "Isn't it because you haven't met someone you like?"

Qin Yao shook his head and gradually faded his smile: "It's not that I don't like the person, but based on my current status, I'm not qualified enough to marry them."

Zhang Ling was stunned.

"They" were within her expectations, but this "inadequacy" was far beyond her expectations.

What kind of noble woman is she that can make Department Store Qin say such words?!

"So my intermediate goal at this stage is to grow up as soon as possible and try not to let them wait for me for too long." Thinking of the three girls, Qin Yao couldn't help but have a smile on his face.

This was also the main reason why he "didn't want to go empty" and changed his route to Sun Moon Lake.

He needs a lot of yin and virtue to improve his strength and status. The so-called fun is just incidental to doing business.

"Who...are they?" Zhang Ling hesitated for a moment, but he couldn't help but be curious.

"There's a situation!"

At this time, the last light in the distant sky dispersed, and the night shrouded the pond. Countless dense light spots appeared in the water. If you look closely, you can see that these light spots are clearly pairs of eyes.

Qin Yao warned in a low voice, quickly put away the oars, and took out a handful of talisman papers from his suit pocket. Three talismans were affixed to the bow and stern of the boat, and three to the left and right sides of the boat.

"Chi."

Suddenly, a hand as black as ink grasped the side of the boat, just holding a talisman. The talisman immediately ignited spontaneously, and a beam of flame jumped into the water along the palm, instantly piercing the chest of a ghost.

Seeing this, the countless ghost hands stretched out from the water suddenly froze in place, and the pairs of eyes in the lake subconsciously moved farther away from the boat...

No matter how scary the ghosts are, as long as they still retain their emotions and desires, they will be afraid and hesitant.

People are afraid of ghosts.

Why aren't ghosts afraid of people?

It's just the law of the jungle.
