His skin was also tanned dark.

At a glance, he was clearly a man of action.

Zhou Feitian shook hands with Qin Feng, then nodded at Reba.

He smiled simply, "You must be tired from the journey; rest well tonight."

Qin Feng shook his head and said, "Not tired. Have all the Masters arrived?"

Zhou Feitian nodded, "Accommodation and meals are all arranged; rest assured."

Qin Feng said, "Director Zhou has gone to great trouble; a tent and sleeping bag for tonight will suffice."

Zhou Feitian scratched his head and laughed, "Director, Director. Dunhuang has a camping area, and recently the scenic spot is closed for maintenance to prepare for the May 1st tourism rush; you've arrived at just the right time." Reba murmured softly, "Don't tell me we're sleeping in the desert??"

Qin Feng countered, "Wasn't that your request?"

Reba imagined it, and it seemed quite interesting!

Moreover!

The scenic spot is closed now!

Round it up, and it's equivalent to having the whole place to ourselves with Qin Feng!

Thinking that way, it seems a little romantic~

She nodded repeatedly, "Good!"

As for what Qin Feng and Director Zhou were actually discussing just now,

Reba didn't care at all.

Right now, she only cared whether there were stars in the Dunhuang desert at night~

Ever since she got together with Qin Feng,

her thinking had become much, much simpler.

Perhaps it was the influence of Qin Feng's optimistic and carefree personality.

Life passes like a white colt dashing past a crevice.

If you can be happy for one day, you've earned one day! What's the use of worrying about so many trivial matters~

But the million sand-dog viewers had already begun their 'daily decryption'.....?

--【So what were Qin Feng and Deputy Director Zhou discussing? What Masters? Masters of what?】

--【Could they be Masters who restore Dunhuang murals?】

--【What I can confirm is that almost all possibilities you can think of are not what Brother Feng is going to do.】

--【How many times have I said it? Don't predict Brother Feng's actions; it's impossible to predict accurately~】

--【Camping in the closed Dunhuang desert? Sounds awesome!】

Vroom vroom vroom~

Zhou Feitian drove his personal JAC pickup truck, carrying Qin Feng and Reba to the Dunhuang scenic area.

Upon arrival, to thank Uncle Zhou for the welcome, dinner was paid for by Qin Feng.

After dinner, the young couple bought a camping tent and sleeping bags before nightfall.

Uncle Zhou gave Qin Feng a portable hard drive.

And a laptop computer.

He even gave Qin Feng the keys to his JAC pickup truck!

This move completely stunned Reba!

They had just met for the first time, yet Uncle Zhou was treating them too well!

Zhou Feitian said, "Qin Feng, inside here are some digital files on Dunhuang murals; quite a lot of material has accumulated over decades."

He added, "There are also a few interesting small programs on the hard drive."

Reba asked curiously, "Are they fun little games?"

Uncle Zhou nodded, then shook his head.

He said, "There are also apps simulating ancient Dunhuang musical instruments. I heard Qin Feng is very knowledgeable about instruments; if you have free time, tuning them would be perfect!" Perhaps the desire to get Qin Feng, this 'technical consultant' on ancient instruments, for free was too obvious.

Zhou Feitian, not good with words, burst into loud laughter after speaking.

The words were stiff.

The laughter meant to cover the awkwardness was also abrupt.

But ultimately, he was an honest man with a straightforward heart!

Qin Feng nodded and said, "Thank you, Uncle Zhou. I will mark the materials that need copying; I won't touch anything that shouldn't be copied."

Zhou Feitian shook his head repeatedly, "Anything goes! Just tell me what materials you need!"

After giving instructions, Uncle Zhou got into a colleague's car and left.

It seemed he didn't want to disturb the young couple for even a moment longer.

In short,

the cooperation between the Dunhuang Tourism Bureau and Qin Feng

was built on the foundation of many successful cases before.

Qin Feng wanted to carry out some 'cultural exchange'.

Thereby giving Dunhuang mural culture more opportunities to be showcased.

After clarifying the reason, Reba blinked her eyes and pondered, "So~ what is the price?"

Although promoting the inheritance of Chinese culture usually brings little profit.

But tourism does bring profit!

Even if it can't be said that all under heaven rush for profit.

But cultural research and development needs economic blood transfusion, doesn't it?

Qin Feng replied, "The price is just to generate more revenue for the local tourism industry."

He said it lightly, and Qin Feng indeed acted lightly.

After all, there have been too many successful cases in the past.

The Hainan Wenlu Bureau's "Deep Blue Journey" promotional song, "Watch the Sea," back then.

Not only did the "Deep Blue" diving project's reservation slots sell out in minutes, but it also boosted tourist throughput across coastal cities nationwide.

Dunhuang has no sea; it has the ancient Silk Road beneath the sand and gravel.

If we talk about things related to water.

Then there is only the Crescent Spring.

And just now, when turning off the live stream audio.

Uncle Zhou also explained some small details about "closing the tourist area for maintenance" without any hesitation.

If following natural climate and geological changes.

At the lowest water level, only a depth of 0.4 meters remains.

Without artificial intervention.

By today, the Crescent Spring might have dried up long ago.

To maintain the tourist spot, diverting groundwater to give the Crescent Spring a "blood transfusion" is public knowledge.

In the interval while Qin Feng and Reba chatted about these matters.

The two chose a spot to pitch their tents for tonight's camping.

Not far away.

Is the Crescent Spring under the moonlight reflection after nightfall.

The Crescent Spring under the moonlight reflection after nightfall.

Reba said in surprise, "So a lot of money was spent to maintain the water of the Crescent Spring."

Qin Feng shrugged his small hands and said, "We can't just watch it dry up helplessly, can we?"

If the tourist area can make money.

Then naturally there are economic conditions to maintain the landforms and the spring water.

Tourists see something fresh, and the status of the "First Spring of the Desert" can be preserved.

From any angle, it is not a bad thing.

Even if, behind this, there is money and sweat maintained by artificial means.

Reba agreed, "Whether we let it dry up and disappear, or use the power of technology to keep it, there will always be people who agree and disagree; rather than that, let's choose the most beautiful way!" Qin Feng nodded, "Your awareness is getting higher and higher now."

While speaking, Qin Feng glanced at the unfolded sleeping bag.
