Start with a blacksmith shop.

The next morning, when Li Zhenhua woke up, he not only felt a headache, but also aches and pains all over his body.

Last night, the three of us each drank about half a kilogram of liquor, and then we drank some beer to cool off. We didn't drink too much, but when you mix different kinds of alcohol together, things can get really bad. It might not be a violent ordeal, but it'll definitely make you feel unwell.

The headache was caused by drinking too much last night, but Yang Yu was puzzled as to why his body ached. When he tried to sit up, he immediately realized that he couldn't even straighten up.

In his haste to find the reason, he realized he had used too much force and immediately understood why he was in this situation. It turned out that his upper body was being pressed down by two thighs, and the owner of those two thighs was none other than the fat man, Liu Xiaodong.

It would be strange if he didn't feel uncomfortable after being pressed down all night. Feeling somewhat embarrassed and annoyed, he moved the leg that was pressing down on him to the side, and only then did he realize that his leg seemed to be numb as well.

Looking down at his legs, Li Zhenhua saw that they had become Guo Shugui's pillow. He was both amused and exasperated. He patted his still-aching head and then woke the two of them up.

He was filled with regret at that moment, wishing he hadn't drunk so much. Not only had he drunk too much, but the wind had also been blowing on him all night on the rooftop, making it hard for him to breathe.

After lying on the wooden floor all night, he could feel how sore his back was.

After waking Liu Xiaodong and the other man, he got up and stretched his body. Once he recovered, he kicked the two men, who were still not fully awake, and then threw them off the roof.

After leaving the company, Li Zhenhua gave a bitter smile. He had originally planned to pack up and set off with his wife and children today, but now that he was in this state, what was the point of setting off?

Let's just go home and rest for a day until we're fully recovered before thinking about going out to play!

When he arrived home, Li Yun and her daughter Xiao Lizi were already up and eating breakfast in the dining room. As soon as Xiao Lizi saw him enter, she immediately got off her high chair and ran towards him, but as soon as she jumped into his arms, she immediately broke free.

"Daddy stinks, Mommy, Daddy stinks, I don't like Daddy anymore!" It was clearly the smell of alcohol on Li Zhenhua that bothered Xiao Lizi.

Little Chestnut ran back to Li Yun's side, looking at Li Zhenhua with a look of disgust on her face.

Li Zhenhua gave a wry smile at his daughter's reaction. Li Yun simply rolled her eyes at him and continued feeding Xiao Lizi.

Seeing the mother and daughter's attitude, he left dejectedly and went straight to the bathroom to take a shower.

After taking a shower, I came out of the bathroom, sat down at the dining table, picked up a sesame seed cake, took a bite, ate it with a bowl of tofu in front of me, and then swallowed the sesame seed cake. I then gave an awkward laugh.

"Hehehe, Xiaoyun, I did drink a bit too much last night. I spent the whole night on the rooftop with Fatty Guo, and now my nose is a little stuffy."

Let's not set off today. I'll rest for a day or two to recover before we leave. This will also be a good opportunity to pack our things properly.

While eating breakfast, Li Yun said to him in an annoyed tone, "Let's see if you'll still drink heavily in the future. Do you remember that Wang Mei and I went to the rooftop last night?"

"Forget it, I can tell you don't remember from the look on your face. Just rest for a couple of days. I'll pack my own luggage; you don't know what to bring anyway!"

Li Zhenhua was completely dumbfounded when he heard Li Yun's words. She had come to see him last night? But he had no recollection of it at all; he didn't remember her coming at all.

He didn't dwell on anything, smiled apologetically at Li Yun, then went back to his room, lay down on the bed, and unknowingly fell into a deep sleep.

His travel plans were delayed by two days because he had a drink with two close friends. After he recovered, he and Li Yun packed all the things they needed to bring and set off.

After leaving home, he and Li Yun activated the holographic disguise projection, and carrying the disguises and a complete set of identity documents obtained through special channels, they headed straight for Jinan Yaoqiang Airport.

Their destination was Dihua, the capital of Xinjiang, which was also the starting point of their trip around Kyushu. Their strategy was to start from the border regions of Kyushu and travel through the provinces in the outer rings.

Anyway, that's the plan. No matter where they go on this trip, the timeframe is set at two and a half years.

As for their main means of transportation, the vehicles he had prepared had already set off before they even left, arranged by Ning Wei. When the family of three arrived in Dihua, the vehicles should be just in time to be used.

The family of three acted just like any other family traveling together: buying tickets, getting boarding passes, boarding the plane, and waiting for takeoff.

Sitting on a commercial airliner, Li Zhenhua found it quite novel, as he hadn't flown on commercial airliners many times before; he had almost always traveled by military aircraft.

The plane began its takeoff run, and when it reached takeoff speed, it soared into the sky.

Sitting inside the plane, Li Zhenhua felt nothing at all about the takeoff of a civilian aircraft. Having gotten used to military aircraft, he found the takeoff of a civilian aircraft quite comfortable.

The seats were comfortable, there was no noise, and the service was excellent. Li Zhenhua flew to his destination in such a comfortable way, which was one of the few times he had such a comfortable flying experience.

After several hours of flight, the plane landed at Dihua Airport. The family of three, along with other passengers, disembarked and headed straight for the airport's underground parking lot. His main vehicle, an Iveco van, had already been parked there, waiting for him.

After finding his Iveco van at the airport, Li Zhenhua got in and their journey officially began.

Following their pre-determined travel plan, they began to wander around Xinjiang Province. What exactly was their customized itinerary? It was quite simple: they would drive to wherever there was good food.

Some places are famous for roasted whole lamb, so he goes there to eat roasted whole lamb. Other places are famous for local delicacies like braised pork in a clay pot, so he will drive there as well. In short, he just follows his taste buds.

Along the way, they enjoyed the local scenery and experienced customs and culture that were completely different from those in the inland areas.

Having witnessed the beauty of the desert, the lone smoke rising from the setting sun, and other stunning landscapes, Li Zhenhua and Li Yun were finally able to relax completely, appreciating the beauty of Kyushu's rivers and mountains in their surroundings.

Don't be fooled by the fact that they're driving around and it seems like there's only one car. Ning Wei and his men are following them from the shadows, protecting their safety.

If they encounter any situation here, Ning Wei and other security personnel, who are not far away but are lurking in the shadows, will definitely be able to arrive at their side in the shortest possible time and then protect them.

The security personnel alone numbered twenty. Li Zhenhua didn't really want it to be like this. Even though he explained all the security measures he had taken to Ning Wei and the others, Ning Wei still didn't agree to let them travel on their own.

Li Zhenhua understood that this was simply their duty, and since that was the case, he had no choice but to agree.

Don't think this is a waste. His safety involves a lot of things, and he is fully capable of handling such security arrangements.

Li Zhenhua, along with Li Yun and Xiao Lizi, were happily traveling around Xinjiang Province. On this particular day, they were driving towards the Tengger Desert, and Xiao Lizi and her mother Li Yun were eating and watching TV in the car.

When the yellow sand began to fill the sky outside the window, the cartoon playing on TV could no longer attract Xiao Lizi's attention.

Little Chestnut looked uncomfortably out the window at the environment so different from their usual life. Her eyes were full of questions. She couldn't understand why there was no greenery on the land outside.

Why did he see almost no plants, only desert as far as the eye could see?

"Mom, are we in the desert now?" Little Chestnut asked Chestnut Cloud, her mind filled with questions.

"Yes, this is the desert. We are currently on the edge of the Tengger Desert in Xinjiang Province. Dad is driving us to see the desert!"

"Honey, did Mommy describe the desert to you before? Look here, is it the same as Mommy described?"

While answering her daughter's questions, Li Yun also guided her daughter to share some knowledge with her, hoping to broaden her horizons while she explored the beautiful landscapes of their motherland.

The knowledge that Little Chestnut has gained along the way is something that other children may never encounter in real life, and this is not an exaggeration; it is precisely the reality.

Some people have never even left their hometown in their entire lives; the furthest they've ever gone is probably just outside their county, let alone traveling to other provinces to broaden their horizons.

They traveled together, taking Xiao Lizi on a journey to broaden his horizons. He learned a lot while playing, which can be considered as nurturing the child.

Looking at her surroundings, Xiao Lizi recalled what Li Yun had told her and began to compare it with what she had learned. Through this comparison, she gained a more solid grasp of the knowledge.

When Xiao Lizi starts school, she will definitely be the most knowledgeable among her peers. Although she may not be the best in academics, she will certainly be the most knowledgeable.

Xiao Lizi looked out the window for a while, as if she had thought of something. She climbed down from her seat and ran over to Li Zhenhua, who was driving in front.

"Dad, can I ask you a question?"

Hearing his daughter's question while driving, Li Zhenhua replied, "Of course! What do you want to know?"

"I want to know if it's possible to grow crops in the desert?"

I often heard my grandmother say that she wished she had a large plot of land. She often complained that the vegetable garden in the yard was too small, and she would pick and choose the varieties of vegetables she wanted to grow.

I think if vegetables could be grown in the desert, I'd tell Grandma when I get home to grow vegetables there. There's so much land here; Grandma definitely won't nag about the vegetable patch being too small anymore.

Li Zhenhua listened quietly to what Xiao Lizi had to say, but he really didn't expect the little one to ask such a question. To his surprise, he couldn't help but sigh, realizing that the people of Kyushu had this farming gene deeply ingrained in their bones; even such a tiny little thing was already thinking about how to farm.

Although the reason was that the mother-in-law was complaining about not having a place to grow vegetables, this is already very much in line with the genes deeply buried in the bones of the people of Kyushu.

After thinking about all these random thoughts, he returned to the question Little Chestnut had asked him, and answered it without hesitation.

"Honey, if your grandma heard what you said, she would be both angry and amused. How can you grow vegetables in the desert!"

The desert is actually short of water. Do you remember what your mother told you about the desert?

"It's all sand here, and there's not much water. Any vegetables you try to grow here will definitely not survive."

After hearing Li Zhenhua's answer, Xiao Lizi's face went from confusion to disappointment. She muttered, "Grandma, it seems you can only grow the vegetables in the yard. If only we could grow crops in this desert, Grandma would have a big vegetable garden and could grow some of my favorite vegetables for me."

As Li Zhenhua drove, he couldn't help but chuckle at Xiao Lizi's disappointed words; he could almost picture his mother-in-law in his mind.

If his mother-in-law knew what Xiao Lizi was thinking, she'd probably sing a song right there and then: "Listen to me, thank you..."

Thinking this, Li Zhenhua's lips couldn't help but curl up slightly, while Li Yun, sitting in the back of the car, couldn't control herself at all. She curled up on the sofa like a shrimp, trying her best not to laugh out loud.

With a look of disappointment, Xiao Lizi left Li Zhenhua's side and went back to the back to climb back into her seat.

Li Yun noticed her daughter's unhappiness and tried to hide her smile. Just as she was about to offer some words of comfort, Xiao Lizi spoke up from the side.

"Mom, I want to video chat with Grandma. Can you help me? I want to tell Grandma that Little Chestnut did her best!"

Looking at Li Yun's aggrieved face, her expression was so adorable that it made Li Yun laugh and realize how simple the world of children really is.

Suppressing a laugh, she agreed to Xiao Lizi's request, then used her phone to screen mirror to the car's TV and made a video call to her mother.

Soon Ding Yan's image appeared on the TV, and then her voice came from the car's audio system.

"Oh my little darling, are you missing Grandma? How was your time playing in Xinjiang with Mommy and Daddy? Were you happy?"

What delicious food did you eat in Xinjiang today? Did you have barbecue? Listen to Grandma, it's not good for kids to eat barbecue all the time!

After Ding Yan finished speaking on TV, she noticed that Xiao Lizi looked unhappy. Not knowing what was wrong, she quickly asked her what was wrong.

"Little Chestnut, why are you unhappy? Did your parents make you angry? Grandma will help you get revenge when you come back!"

"Grandma, you can't come to the desert to grow vegetables anymore..."
