Two things.

1. Use the apprentices and give them dousing rods. You'll want either 2 or 3 in a province. 3 will require a bit more micro, turning the tax down to 0 if they all get a big hunt find. 2 should be fine with auto-taxes on.

2. Don't build a lab. Hire a commander to walk back and forth. Generally you shouldn't be blood hunting too far from a fortress + lab to make this round trip take more than 2 turns. Even if it does, you can just hire a second commander. The upfront gold cost + minor upkeep won't come close to building multiple labs in your blood hunt provinces.
