As a Magnate, I Started Checking in at a Convenience Store

Chapter 734: My Grasslands, My Horses
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The weather on the second day was surprisingly good, with the sun hanging high in the azure sky early in the morning.

Zhou Chao had just stepped out of his room when he bumped into Si Cong, who had come to find him.

“Si Cong, is everything packed and ready? Don’t let any issues arise halfway there!”

“Don’t worry, I’ve already made arrangements. Hey, where’s Lin Wu?”

“Lin Wu is downstairs checking the vehicles. Let’s go down as well.”

With that, Zhou Chao headed towards the elevator.

The two of them took the elevator directly to the hotel’s underground parking garage, where they saw Lin Wu standing by Karlmann King’s trunk, checking the items.

Upon hearing the sound from behind, Lin Wu quickly turned around to look.

“Boss, everything has been checked and we can depart anytime.”

“Good!” Zhou Chao nodded, then turned to Si Cong. “Where’s your car?”

Si Cong nodded towards a white Mercedes-Benz G-Class not far away.

“Why did you change cars? What happened to the previous one?”

Si Cong looked a bit embarrassed at the question. “Uh, you know, I’ve been having a blast these past few days, so the car got a bit dirty. I just wanted a clean one!”

Everyone present was well-versed in the ways of the world, so they understood the hidden meaning behind Si Cong’s words. Zhou Chao and the others looked at him teasingly.

Unable to withstand their gazes, Si Cong hurriedly walked towards his car.

“Si Cong, this isn’t like you!” Zhou Chao couldn’t help but remark.

Si Cong didn’t respond, just waved his hand as if to say, “I don’t want to talk to you.”

With a smile, Zhou Chao opened the rear door and got in, while Lin Wu took the driver’s seat.

The roar of engines filled the parking garage.

From Hohhot to Ulanqab wasn’t very far, only about 150 kilometers. Driving would only take a little over two hours. Zhou Chao calculated that they would arrive in Ulanqab just in time for lunch.

Soon, the two cars were on the highway out of Hohhot. As they left the city, endless plains stretched before them, with distant Yin Mountains faintly visible, covered in patches of white snow.

Unfortunately, the vast plains were short-lived. After about half an hour of driving, the highway entered into towering mountains, surrounded on both sides by towering peaks.

By this time, Zhou Chao had already reclined in the back seat and fallen asleep.

As the city closest to Kyoto in Inner Mongolia, Ulanqab was also known as a holy land for tourism. During the peak tourist season, it would be crowded with people, earning it the nickname “Jingdu’s Back Garden.”

“Wow, this is so beautiful!” Lin Wu, who was driving, couldn’t help but exclaim.

The sound of Lin Wu’s excitement woke Zhou Chao from his slumber. “What’s going on?”

“Boss, take a look outside!” Lin Wu said excitedly.

Zhou Chao opened his eyes and looked out the window. “Wow, this is breathtaking!”

Beneath the azure sky, lush green grasslands stretched as far as the eye could see. Wind turbines stood tall on the grasslands, and one could even see many spirited horses galloping among them. This beautiful scene left Zhou Chao at a loss for words.

If one were to describe it in words, Zhou Chao could only silently recall a poem, “The scenery is as beautiful as a painting, intending to compose poetry for the world, alas, lacking in education, can only exclaim at the wind’s greatness!”

Unable to resist, Zhou Chao took out his phone and snapped several pictures.

“I didn’t expect the grassland scenery to be so beautiful!” Zhou Chao couldn’t help but sigh.

Seeing such a landscape for the first time, there was inevitably a hint of excitement in his heart, just like when he first saw snow. After all, he was a southerner.

Glancing at the rearview mirror and noticing the boss being captivated by the scenery outside, Lin Wu tentatively asked, “Boss, what do you think about staying in Ulanqab for a day? We could go horseback riding on the grassland in the afternoon!”

“Sure, why not? I’ve never ridden freely on the grassland before, and I’ve longed to experience that feeling!”

Without hesitation, Zhou Chao agreed. After all, Lin Wu’s suggestion touched his heart. How could he refuse?

When Zhou Chao and his companions arrived in Ulanqab, it was exactly noon. After a harmonious discussion (initiated by Zhou Chao), they chose a restaurant that was characteristic of Ulanqab for lunch.

Mongolian meat porridge! Just by the name, one could tell it was full of Mongolian characteristics. It was quite different from the lean meat congee we often drink. The meat here was in large chunks, making the porridge more flavorful and delicious.

As soon as the meat porridge was served, each of them filled their bowls.

“Hmm, this porridge tastes pretty good!” Si Cong took a sip, pleasantly surprised.

Initially reluctant, Si Cong now boasted about it as he ate. Coupled with Ulanqab’s specialty braised lamb, it was absolutely fantastic!

“Si Cong, we’re not leaving today. The plan for the afternoon is to find a place where we can go horseback riding and experience the feeling of galloping on the grassland!”

“Sounds good to me. It’s just a pity we can only ride individually. If I had known, I would’ve brought one from Hohhot to play with!”

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chao was momentarily stunned, not realizing the meaning behind Si Cong’s words.

Perhaps sensing his boss’s confusion, Lin Wu whispered softly, “Boss, there was a historical drama before, it seemed like an emperor and a noble concubine rode horses together, and then… hehehe.”
