Chapter 1424: Was This a Show of Courtesy Before Resorting to Force?

“Everyone, relax. I’m here to learn. You’re all my teachers.” Ye Feng tried his best to lower his posture, but these people still stood straight and did not relax at all.
Zhuang Xiaoqiao, who was standing beside him, had a special feeling in her heart.
Men were only more attractive when they were respected by others.
It had to be said that Ye Feng now had the aura of a big leader.
At this moment, a woman walked out. “Hello, Mr. Ye. I’m the captain of this exploration team. My name is Lan Xingyue.”
Although this woman was wearing a bulky outdoor outfit with only her face exposed, she was very stunning.
Especially her beautiful hair, which fluttered in the wind, just like those shampoo commercials.
It was hard to imagine that a woman who often carried out exploration missions outdoors would have such smooth hair.
Even Zhuang Xiaoqiao was envious.
“Hello, Captain Lan.” Ye Feng reached out and shook her hand, her hand was very soft, and it did not seem like she did rough work often.
However, thinking about it, it made sense. She was the captain. How could she do things herself? As long as she had a mouth to order others.
“Mr. Ye, although you’re the boss, there are some rules that I have to make clear first.” After Lan Xingyue shook hands with Ye Feng, her tone became much more serious.
Ye Feng was instantly amused, was this using courtesy before resorting to force?
“Alright, go ahead. I’ll listen.” He did not put on the airs of a boss and listened humbly.
“From now on, until the end of the exploration mission, I am the highest leader of this team. If anyone dares to disobey my orders, no matter who it is, they must leave the team immediately.”
Lan Xingyue exuded a fortitude that was rarely seen in men. No wonder she could be the captain.
“Alright, we’ll follow Captain Lan’s orders.” Ye Feng was the first to express his stance, he did not want to blindly command others during this mission.
“That’s good. Let’s go.” Lan Xingyue was very satisfied with his attitude. She was worried that this big boss would criticize the exploration team.
What she hated the most was a layman commanding an expert. If that was the case, she would just quit.
From the looks of it, she was satisfied with Ye Feng’s attitude.
With her order, the exploration team immediately took action.
They even specially equipped Ye Feng with a walkie-talkie to facilitate communication between cars.
According to Lan Xingyue’s introduction, they had already locked onto a few areas based on intelligence.
Among them were silver, copper, and coal mines.
After hearing her introduction, Ye Feng was filled with anticipation.
If he could really find these mineral veins this time, then he could be considered someone with a mine in his family.
The resources from mineral veins were different from other industries.
Other industries require constant investment and could be eliminated in the future.
However, mineral veins were not so worrying. They would never have to worry about the market and could continuously create value.
Of course, all of this was based on the premise that they could really find the mineral veins.
They were only making a preliminary judgment. They still needed to carefully investigate before they could determine the authenticity of the information.
The convoy moved forward and soon left the urban area. The more they traveled, the more remote it became.
After driving for more than an hour, the convoy entered the mountainous area and finally stopped outside a dense forest.
“We can’t drive anymore. Get out of the car and bring your equipment.”
Lan Xingyue got out of the car first and greeted everyone.
Ye Feng and Zhuang Xiaoqiao got out of the car as well.
“What can we do to help?” Ye Feng came before Lan Xingyue, looking into the depths of the forest.
“Help me carry the equipment.” Lan Xingyue did not stand on ceremony with him. She pointed at the exploration equipment in the pickup truck.
Ye Feng did not say anything, he walked over and picked up a piece of equipment that he could not name, it was about a hundred pounds, and it was quite heavy.
Zhuang Xiaoqiao did her best to help carry some things.
Then, the group of people walked towards the dense forest in a grandiose manner.
“Everyone, be careful. There are many traps set by hunters in this forest. Don’t step into them.” Lan Xingyue instructed everyone while looking for directions on the map.
“Sister Lan, are there still prey in this forest?” Zhuang Xiaoqiao came to her side and asked as she wiped her sweat.
She was the most enthusiastic person on the team.
It was her first time coming to such a primitive forest, and her curiosity was far greater than her fear.
“Don’t be afraid. Just follow me.”
Lan Xingyue thought that she was afraid, so she said casually.
According to her guess, this ridiculously beautiful girl was very likely the mistress of that big boss.
However, she didn’t have any intention of despising her.
As long as she didn’t cause trouble for her, she couldn’t be bothered to care about other people’s business.
The exploration team went deep into the forest, and the temperature began to rise.
By noon, the temperature in the forest had already reached more than 30 degrees Celsius. Those with weaker physiques were already feeling dizzy.
“Let’s rest for a while and eat something.”
Lan Xingyue found an empty space and asked everyone to stop and rest.
The members of the exploration team put down their equipment and gathered together to eat compressed biscuits with mineral water.
Ye Feng and Zhuang Xiaoqiao also received a portion.
However, Zhuang Xiaoqiao only took a small bite and felt that it was too disgusting, so she gave the rest of the biscuits to Ye Feng and ran to Lan Xingyue.
“Sister Lan, your stamina is really good. After walking so many mountain roads, I feel like my legs are about to break, but you’re actually fine.” Zhuang Xiaoqiao looked at Lan Xingyue with admiration.
“I often go on missions. I’m used to it.” Lan Xingyue didn’t like to talk, so she just replied casually.
“I really envy you guys for being able to go to so many fun places.” Zhuang Xiaoqiao looked forward to it.
“Fun?” Lan Xingyue glanced at her with a sneer on her face.
Obviously, she felt that Zhuang Xiaoqiao’s words were a little like “why not eat cake.”
How difficult was it for them to come out to do exploration missions? If it wasn’t for the sake of making a living, who wouldn’t want to stay comfortably at home?
This young miss actually thought it was fun.
Zhuang Xiaoqiao was very sensitive, she realized that she had said something wrong, so she stuck out her tongue and sat back down beside Ye Feng.
“You’ve been refuted, haven’t you?” Ye Feng looked at her gloatingly.
Zhuang Xiaoqiao glared at him and ignored him.
After eating, the members of the exploration team began to rest. Only Lan Xingyue did not rest. She took the binoculars to check the surroundings.
“Why don’t you sleep for a while?”
Ye Feng walked over from behind her and passed her a bottle of mineral water.
“Thank you.” Lan Xingyue took the mineral water and took a sip. Then, she pointed at the dense forest around them. “There are wild beasts in this forest. Someone has to stand guard. Otherwise, it will be very dangerous.”
“Then I’ll stand guard. You go and sleep.” Ye Feng said kindly.
After all, he was a martial arts practitioner and was very energetic. He only needed to sleep for two hours a day to ensure that he was full of energy for the day.
