Chapter 1940: Good Place Chapter 1940: Good Place Editor: Henyee Translations Zheng Sangge’s heart skipped a beat.
“Lord, Madam, rest assured.
We understand the significance of this place and your intentions for it.
We won’t breathe a word of it to anyone.” Initially, some members of the group hadn’t grasped the gravity of the situation.
However, upon Zheng Sangge’s reminder, they swiftly recognized the importance of secrecy and pledged their mitment to it.
Shao Yunduan nodded approvingly.
“As long as you keep that promise!” While initially unsure of their plans, Shao Yunduan couldn’t ignore the potential of such a remarkable locale.
It would be a waste not to capitalize on its possibilities.
Qiao Xuan’s vision was clear and concise—developing the area into a ranch.
Her proposal enpassed raising cattle, sheep, and horses, while also creating ponds for ducks and geese.
The prospect was tantalizingly promising.
With its natural beauty, ample space, and concealed location, the area seemed tailor-made for such endeavors.
Surrounded by mountains on three sides and with a narrow entrance, its defenses were formidable.
Their brief sojourn by the lake only heightened their curiosity, fueling their eagerness to explore every corner of the basin and unlock its full potential.
As the day waned, the sun’s rays softened, casting gentle hues across the basin.
Despite its vastness, the imposing shadows of distant mountains instilled a chill in the air.
Sensing the encroaching dusk, the group quickened their pace.
Before long, they noticed wisps of rising water vapor, acpanied by a noticeable rise in temperature.
Puzzled yet intrigued, they exchanged speculative glances.
Zheng Sangge’s sudden revelation broke the silence.
“Could that be a hot spring up ahead?
It would explain the warmth, especially in winter!” Wu Guan’s eyes widened in realization.
“It seems likely!
But the intensity of the steam… This must be an exceptionally large hot spring!
I’ve never seen anything like it!” “Indeed!” echoed the others in agreement.
Those unfamiliar with hot springs, like Liu Fu, Qiaoqiao, and the rest, bombarded Wu Guan with questions, eager to prehend this natural phenomenon.
As Wu Guan elucidated, their eyes widened in astonishment, their anticipation for what lay ahead heightened.
The idea of naturally heated spring water bubbling up from the earth without the need for firewood seemed almost magical.
With laughter and excitement, they hastened their steps toward the basin’s end.
True to their expectations, a vast hot spring awaited them, enveloped in swirling steam.
The warm vapor caressed their faces, inducing a sense of relaxation and tranquility.
Confronted with such a weling sight amid winter’s chill, none could resist the allure of warmth.
As they crouched beside the water, Qiaoqiao and the others eagerly dipped their hands in, exclaiming in delight, “Wow, it’s really hot!” “So forting and magical!” “What a marvelous discovery!
It’s incredibly convenient!” Their spirits lifted, they settled into fortable spots to wash their hands and faces.
Qiao Xuan issued a cautionary reminder, advising everyone to test the water’s temperature beforehand to avoid any burns.
Some sections were as scalding as boiling water, posing a risk of injury.
Even Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan indulged in the ritual of cleansing their hands.
Tempted by the natural hot spring, Qiao Xuan entertained the notion of taking a bath.
However, given the circumstances, it was clearly impractical.
It wouldn’t be appropriate for her, as the Prefect’s wife, to partake in such a leisurely activity in the wilderness, especially with so many subordinates present.
Such behavior would be deemed impolite and improper.
Regrettably, she had to resign herself to the reality of the situation.
