Just as Luo Cheng was thinking about Li Xiaoran’s words, Zi Cheng, who had been in charge of the farmstead, ran over anxiously.

“Mr. Luo, Consort, something happened! Many of the girls who came out of Shatai Village are either dead or have gone missing again! After I received the news, I quickly went to the farmstead to take a look, but I bumped into someone who drugged Wang Jiameng and wanted to take her away. After a fight, that person abandoned Wang Jiameng and ran away!” Zi Cheng quickly told them what had happened.

When Li Xiaoran heard this, her expression changed and she said, “Oh no, we forgot to check if those women had been drugged!”

When Luo Cheng heard this, his expression turned solemn.

They had really forgotten about this at that time.

Luo Cheng quickly made a decision. “Hurry up and cover the incense with our changed tracking incense. Then, go find those women. As long as they’re still around, let them change the incense. This way, we can avoid being discovered again! This is all we can do now! As for the two people in our farmstead, bring the incense pills over first and send people to strengthen the patrol in the farmstead. Leave a few people to protect the two women in the farmstead!”

“Why don’t we catch them with a trap? Perhaps those people will come back. Why don’t we wait there together?!” Li Xiaoran thought for a moment and said, “I actually don’t understand why those people planted tracking incense on those women. Could it be that the people of Shatai Village expected that these women would be saved?”

Zi Cheng thought of something and suggested, “Mr. Luo, Consort, why don’t we let Wu Qinghe divine it?! Otherwise, we’ll be like headless chickens!”

Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran felt that Zi Cheng’s suggestion was very good, so they quickly called Wu Qinghe back.

Wu Qinghe didn’t open for business today. When he heard that Luo Cheng was looking for him, he simply closed the stall and came back.

After knowing what had happened, Wu Qinghe began to get busy.

After washing her hands, he washed her face and burned incense. Then, he started writing and drawing.

Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng knew that Wu Qinghe would become engrossed, so they didn’t disturb him. Instead, they went to the coffee table at the side to make a pot of tea.

After about an hour, Wu Qinghe heaved a long sigh of relief. Then, he sat up and moved his body.

When he felt comfortable, Wu Qinghe came to the coffee table and poured himself some tea.

After his thirst was relieved, Wu Qinghe looked at Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran.

“Brother Luo Cheng, Madam, the weather has changed. The turbid forces from before have already begun to separate. All kinds of forces are swarming out. I’m afraid the world will be in chaos next. What happened in the past few days is already a sign, and Sichuan will be the center of the vortex. Everything is centered around the mine! It’s only in the brewing stage now. In three months, things will change. At that time, conflict will arise! There’s not much time left for us to prepare!”

Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng were immediately dumbfounded when they heard Wu Qinghe’s words.

They never expected Wu Qinghe to say such a thing.

“What has the change got to do with us?” Li Xiaoran couldn’t help but ask.

Wu Qinghe said, “I can tell you guys about the change, but with Brother Luo

Cheng and Madam’s fortuitous encounters, you guys won’t be able to escape!

It’s hard to predict what will happen. Everything is unknown!”

“Wu Qinghe, what’s wrong with you today? You’re usually quite reliable! Mr. Luo and the consort want to ask you what these past few days’ incidents signify. Why are you talking about these things? Is it related to what we’re talking about?” Zi Cheng asked in confusion.

When Wu Qinghe heard Zi Cheng’s words, he thought for a moment and said,

“Not all women have tracking incense on them! Some have it, and some don’t! Why don’t you investigate carefully? The women who are fine probably don’t have soul-tracking incense. After all, it’s not cheap to make soul-tracking incense. Things naturally have to be used on the most important people! If I’m not mistaken, those women who are in trouble are probably the most troublesome people in Shatai Village. They kept trying to escape, so they were drugged with soul-tracking incense!”

When Zi Cheng heard this, he immediately came to the door and asked someone to investigate.

“As for the people in the portraits, they’re all from the same faction. The other party’s goal is the mine in Mr. Luo’s hand!” Wu Qinghe said.

Luo Cheng wasn’t surprised to hear Wu Qinghe’s words. Wealth was very tempting!

Otherwise, his Third Brother wouldn’t have been chased all the way from the capital.

It seemed that many people wanted to get this mine!

No wonder. No wonder his businesses were targeted!

Li Xiaoran felt a headache just thinking about it. She wondered if she had done the wrong thing by telling the emperor about this mine back then.

However, Li Xiaoran also knew that this mine was a hot potato to begin with. No matter if they kept it or told the emperor, it would cause big trouble.

If they passed the news to the emperor, they could at least resolve the danger on the surface. They just had to be vigilant against the hidden danger!

“Sigh, sometimes, being too lucky isn’t a good thing! But then again, this matter might not be a bad thing! As the saying goes, fortune and misfortune come together. We have to think of a way to attract blessings!” Luo Cheng thought of something and said with a smile, “I’ll ask Luo Han what else can be built after the food street is built. Our food street’s construction has to be brought up! If I don’t take the opportunity to make some money, it’ll be a waste!”

Li Xiaoran was amused when she heard her husband’s words.

It was indeed a good thing to think of this matter in another direction!

Thinking of this, Li Xiaoran also began to feel eager to give it a try!

She also liked earning money!

Especially money from naive and gullible people!

Zi Cheng and Wu Qinghe couldn’t help but shiver when they saw the couple’s reaction.

Of all people, they had to bump into Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran!

The two of them were already very powerful on their own, so now that they were working together, they were even more powerful!

Sigh, he only hoped that those people wouldn’t foolishly come here and suffer big losses!

On second thought, with that mine around, it would be difficult for them not to come!

It was destined!
