After receiving Luo Cheng’s instructions, Zi Cheng settled the matter of the house first.

This house was already for sale. At that time, they had only decided to stay for a few days, so they could only rent it.

Now that they wanted to buy it, the owner was naturally willing to sell it to them.

After a negotiation, the two sides finally agreed on a price.

After Zi Cheng asked Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran, he finally bought this house.

This was Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran’s decision after discussion.

After all, with their current identities, there was no need to put all the houses under their names.

It was better to keep some tricks up their sleeve.

Because Zi Cheng and Li Liming were going to stay here and the two people Luo Cheng was waiting for had arrived that night, Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng decided to set off tomorrow.

The settling down of the people who knew how to roast meat was also handed over to Zi Cheng.

With Zi Cheng around, Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng had peace of mind.

Early the next morning, Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng set off again with some dry food.

Because Zi Cheng wasn’t going, Ye Shengnan, Ma San, and Yin Qing also stayed behind.

These people would go to Golden Sun Town to settle down after meeting up with the others.

Then, the group set off.

Next, Li Xiaoran and the others planned to go to a village in the col not far away called Shatai Village.

The village was in the mountains, but in a cove halfway up the mountain.

At first, the group could only walk in a carriage. After that, the carriage could no longer move.

After finding a carriage shop to store the carriage in and paying the storage fee, the group carried their bags up the mountain.

Luo Cheng didn’t want Li Xiaoran to suffer, so he hired some horse teams and they climbed straight to Shatai Village with their luggage.

The leader of the horse team, Zhang Yi, persuaded earnestly, “Young Master, why are you going to Shatai Village?! If possible, don’t go to that village!” Luo Cheng smiled when he heard Zhang Yi’s words.

“I brought my wife out to take a look. We like to see mountains and rivers. I heard that the scenery in Shatai Village is nice, so we wanted to take a look!” Zhang Yi didn’t believe Luo Cheng’s words.

“What’s there to see in Shatai Village? You can see mountains and rivers anywhere! Go back quickly! Our team won’t charge you anymore!”

Luo Cheng was puzzled by Zhang Yi’s words.

“Tell me in detail. Why are you stopping us from going to Shatai Village? Is there something wrong with this village?”

As soon as Luo Cheng and the others appeared, Zhang Yi knew that they weren’t commoners.

Zhang Yi hesitated for a moment before saying, “Shatai Village isn’t suitable for you guys! Especially if you bring your wife and your sister!”

Previously, Zhang Yi had accepted this job because he only saw the men.

However, when he saw Li Xiaoran and Shu Ruyue appear, he became worried.

It wasn’t a problem to bring the men to Shatai Village, but it was impossible to bring two women.

When Luo Cheng heard this, he immediately understood something.

“Mr. Zhang, tell me in detail. If there’s really a problem, we’ll go back. But don’t worry, even if we go back, you won’t lose a single cent of the money for moving the things this time!”

Zhang Yi stopped everyone. Then, he pulled Luo Cheng under a big tree not far away.

“Young Master Luo, you’re also a young master of a rich family, so there are some things I’d better tell you! Shatai Village is built in a col halfway up the mountain. Because it’s not easy to enter and leave, the people inside are very poor. Many men can’t even get a wife. No one outside is willing to marry into Shatai Village! Therefore, the people inside began to think of ways.”

At this point, Zhang Yi sighed.

“If there’s a daughter in this village, they can exchange marriages with people outside the mountain. What does that mean? The people in Shatai Village will marry a daughter out, while the people outside will marry a daughter in. Some families don’t have daughters, so they have no choice but to spend money to buy a wife. Then, the girl would have to live with all the men in the family!” Luo Cheng’s expression darkened when he heard Zhang Yi’s words.

He had heard of similar things in the past, but now that this had happened right under his nose, he naturally couldn’t ignore it.

Zhang Yi told them what he knew, “Later on, the reputation of the men in Shatai Village became worse and worse, so no one was willing to let their daughter marry into the village and have her reputation ruined, so those people began to kidnap girls. The girls from several other villages went out to do farm work, but never returned home after that! Their families searched everywhere but couldn’t find them. Later, a year later, they realized that their girls had been kidnapped by the people of Shatai Village to become their wives!”

“How ridiculous. Didn’t those girls’ families come to ask for them?” Luo Cheng was so angry that his expression turned livid.

Zhang Yi sighed and said, “Of course they did, but the people from Shatai Village refused to hand them over! Shatai Village is in the col, so it’s easy to hide people. Besides, the people in this village are in it together. No matter who comes looking for them, all the men in the village will join forces! Now, the people in the village have no morals at all. As long as they can get a woman, they’ll do anything!”

“Look at your wife and your sister. They’re both beautiful. If the people of

Shatai Village see them, I’m afraid they won’t be able to walk out of Shatai Village!” In the end, Zhang Yi told them the worst case scenario, ‘Your sister and your sister will probably be kidnapped by those people too!”

When Luo Cheng heard this, veins popped on his hands and his expression turned ugly.

Didn’t the local authorities care about this?

Zhang Yi said, “The authorities can’t control them! The people in this village are extremely vicious now. They’re all desparados. Besides, they won’t fight the officials head -on! They live in the mountains. When they see the officials coming, they hide in the mountains and come back after the officials leave. In the end, the officials can’t do anything to them!”

“However, Shatai Village have good herbs. We can often buy some herbs with good medicinal properties from them. That’s why we took over this job when you came looking for us.. I thought you were here to buy herbs from the people of Shatai Village!”
