The next day, Qi Yun received a call early in the morning from the guide Mamati, who said that the personnel registration procedures had been completed and he was calling to confirm the departure time.
Qi Yun thought for a moment, then asked, "Are we setting out from Shanshan County again this time?"
"That's right, entering the desert from there is the closest route and can save a lot of time," Mamati replied.
"Then let's meet up at Shanshan County tomorrow."
"Tomorrow? Okay, Boss Qi," Mamati responded and continued, "This time I've found three experienced helpers; we'll have four modified off-road vehicles in total, so you don't need to prepare any vehicles on your side."
"As for the supplies, I plan to buy most of them in Shanshan County, but some special items can't be bought in small places. You might need to get those from your side and bring them over."
