The potatoes were not big to begin with, so the three of them took a bite each and finished them in no time.
Han Qing licked his lips with a satisfied look, squinting his eyes as he made plans. "We can't go to Laowan Township today. I wonder where the dog owner, Old Hu, is? Let's go see him! We have nothing to do anyway!"
Chu Beichen waved to the guide to come over: "How far is Lucheng from Hancheng? Is the road easy to walk on?" Hancheng County is where Hu Hongde works now.
The guide thought for a moment and gestured with his hand, "These two places are right next to each other. It depends on where you want to go in Hancheng. If it's between two county towns right next to each other, then it's close. If you're going to Hancheng County, it's a little further away!"
Su Nian smiled and said, "Let's go to Hancheng County!"
"It will take about an hour by our car!" The guide gave the answer immediately.
"Let's go to Hancheng to find Old Hu and Old Fan today. Let my people take Su Huaiyuan back first," Han Qing immediately started making plans. "Let's set off after dinner!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Jenny, who was following behind him, raised her hand and said, "I want to go too!"
Han Qing looked back at Jenny and smiled, "Okay, as long as you don't mind the harsh conditions of this place!"
Han Qing's status was high, and although he didn't want to show off, someone still recommended him to the Lucheng Guesthouse. At noon, they had a rare improvement in the food. Several baskets of big white buns stuffed with pork and green onions were steamed and kept warm on the stove.
Han Qing and his group no longer had to queue up for food, as someone had already placed a large plate of buns on their table.
Su Nian looked at the many women crowded in front of the window and was very surprised. "I don't think I saw them when I was having breakfast this morning!"
"These are the leaders' family members. They heard that the guesthouse made meat buns, so they came to eat them!" The guide introduced in a low voice. It was obvious that these people in front of him did not understand the special circumstances of the small place.
Oh, Su Nian suddenly realized that he was here to eat for free!
After eating meat buns and cabbage stewed with vermicelli, everyone packed their simple luggage. The people from Lucheng Prison and a guard of Han Qing took Su's father and left first, while the others got on a business car and headed to Hancheng where Hu Hongde was.
From Lucheng to Hancheng, the roads are all mountain roads. The roads are very narrow and can only accommodate passing cars. Cars pass by, leaving behind a cloud of dust.
Su Nian was already accustomed to the scenery outside the window, but Jenny was different. It was her first time to get to know such a remote place in depth. Not only did she keep looking out the window, she also took out her camera to take pictures.
Hu Hongde had received a call from Chu Beichen a long time ago, and he was waiting on the roadside in advance. After seeing Chu Beichen and Su Nian coming over, they exchanged a few simple greetings, and Hu Hongde got in his car and led the way.
"It looks like Lao Hu is a good place," Han Qing looked out through the glass window. "It's backed by the Qinling Mountains, so it's convenient for hunting and eating wild delicacies!"
"Oh, my God, you like hunting!" Jenny immediately showed a contemptuous expression. She was a die-hard animal protectionist.
Han Qing had never been looked at with such disdain before, and for a moment he felt a little uncomfortable. "What's wrong with hunting? There are plenty of animals in the mountains!"
Jenny snorted softly and ignored Han Qing.
After seeing this scene, Su Nian finally felt relieved. People with different ideas cannot work together. She no longer had to worry that Jenny would continue to pursue Han Qing.
As everyone was chatting and laughing, Hancheng County appeared in front of them.
Hancheng is an agricultural county. Because it is remote and has no pillar industries, the entire county still retains the appearance of the 1980s, with few decent high-rise buildings.
But at this moment, there were people coming and going and it was very lively. Han Qing became interested and opened the car window to ask. It turned out that today was the day of the temple fair.
