Republic of China: My great warlord, many children, many blessings.

To be honest, although it felt a bit wasteful, it gave Shen Hao a lot of novelty.

Crucially, Bai Xiuzhu persisted for several months.

Seeing Bai Xiuzhu standing behind Shen Hao with no intention of leaving, Jin Ruizhi pleaded, "Xiuzhu, your master only gave me ten minutes, please don't waste my time!"

Bai Xiuzhu rolled her eyes at Jin Ruizhi, raised an eyebrow and smiled, "I'll use you and then discard you. Humph, you two chat, I'll go out."

As she spoke, Bai Xiuzhu walked to Shen Hao's side, gave him a happy kiss, and then quietly closed the door.

Watching Bai Xiuzhu showing off her affection, Jin Ruizhi was speechless, feeling inexplicably envious and sour.

"Xiuzhu is really favored. With so many concubines, is she the only one who can enter your study at any time?"

Shen Hao shrugged and said, "They're all fine with me. I don't have high requirements."

She's my woman; she can come in and see me anytime.

They just have different hobbies.

One more thing, let me remind you, three minutes have already passed. If you keep dawdling, there won't be any time left, and don't blame me for kicking you out then.”

Jin Ruizhi said, "Governor Shen, let's begin. May I ask what your original intention was in establishing the Tobacco Bureau?"

"It is my duty to regulate the cigarette market, resolutely crack down on counterfeit, substandard, and unsafe products, and ensure that citizens can smoke good, affordable, and safe cigarettes."

"What about the power company?"

"Serving the people, I want every household to be able to afford electric lights, so that they are no longer the exclusive domain of the rich, and everyone has the right to enjoy electricity. I want to light up every family with my heart," Shen Hao said.

Serving the people and bringing joy to every family – that's so well said!

Jin Ruizhi was filled with admiration, her beautiful eyes sparkling as she looked at Shen Hao with adoration...

For a moment, I was somewhat lost in thought.

Shen Hao truly lived up to his words: "I will stand firm against the criticism of thousands and serve the people like an ox."

Since Shen Hao became the Governor of Guangdong, the security situation in the entire province has been completely restored.

Gangsters and thugs were all arrested, and many of the more ruthless ones were executed.

All the local gentry who bullied people in Guangdong were arrested.

There are patrols on the streets every day now, and anyone who is seen bullying others is arrested on the spot.

The public security is very good, and many people are willing to come to Guangdong to do business.

Moreover, Shen Hao does not disturb the public or arbitrarily collect taxes, so he has an excellent reputation. He follows the rules and does not violate any laws or regulations, so he can walk with his head held high.

Shen Hao's prestige in Guangdong had long surpassed that of the Tongmenghui, the revolutionary party; in their hearts, Shen Hao was the best official.

The city is well-governed, clean, hygienic, and tidy; everything is developing in a positive direction.

Nowadays, if every household could afford electric lights, that would be a great thing, and Shen Hao's reputation would surely spread throughout the country.

For some reason, Jin Ruizhi felt a little envious of Bai Xiuzhu, who could pursue whomever she wanted.

Unlike her, I don't dare to take the initiative when I like someone.

Indeed, Jin Ruizhi's feelings for Shen Hao were growing stronger.

Moreover, as Shen Hao's status rose, his reputation improved, and he became more and more outstanding, her heart was filled with his image.

This is her ideal type, the perfect man.

However, her heart was bound, preventing her from expressing herself.

Later, she also felt the urge to love him, but she couldn't see Shen Hao at all; even meeting him was too difficult.

Looking at Jin Ruizhi, who was staring blankly at him without blinking, Shen Hao glanced at his watch and said, "Nine minutes have passed. You should leave this morning; I'm busy."

After saying that, Shen Hao ignored him and continued signing the documents.

Jin Ruizhi came to her senses and suddenly felt a little anxious.

After this separation, who knows when we'll see Shen Hao again?

His eyes flashed with madness as he walked step by step toward Shen Hao.

She walked straight into Shen Hao's arms.

"I...I can be your woman too."

Shen Hao was somewhat surprised to see Jin Ruizhi's face turn red.

This is getting interesting.

The proud and intellectual Jin Ruizhi actually threw herself into his arms; that's quite interesting.

212. Jin Ruizhi's Five-Times Critical Hit

As the third young lady of the Jin family, Jin Ruizhi was born with a silver spoon in her mouth.

Furthermore, Jin Ruizhi had been exposed to modern learning and was particularly disgusted by feudalism, considering it to be dross.

Deep down, she wants to find a man who likes her, with whom she can spend the rest of her life and who shares her ideals.

However, ever since she got to know Shen Hao, she has lost interest in other men.

A woman who has experienced the power of a lion would never fall in love with an ordinary man.

But she couldn't let go of her pride, which resulted in Shen Hao having more and more women around him, but none of them were hers.

Shen Hao's sudden desire to get rid of her has thrown her into a panic.

In desperation, he took the initiative to throw himself into her arms.

Shen Hao laughed and said, "Have you thought it through? Once you become my woman, there's no going back."

"Now that I've made my decision, I naturally won't go back on my word." With things as they are, Jin Ruizhi has abandoned her previous thoughts, and her eyes have become resolute.

"Hmm, did your father agree?"

Jin Ruizhi said proudly, "My father has always respected my opinions."

"You know what, your father is actually quite open-minded."

"Yes, that is."

Looking at Jin Ruizhi's thin lips, Shen Hao didn't waste any more words and kissed her directly.

After getting to know her, Shen Hao was certain that Jin Ruizhi had absolutely no experience in dating.

Jin Ruizhi is the kind of person who, if she doesn't like someone, she's fine, but once she likes someone, she's completely devoted to them.

Sure enough, the documents, desk lamp, and pens on the desk were scattered all over the floor.

As the sun gradually sank in the west, the evening glow burned red like fire, just like Jin Ruizhi's cheeks at that moment.

After getting dressed, Jin Ruizhi kissed Shen Hao.

"My lord, I shall take my leave now."

“Okay, go ahead. I’ll send a few guards to protect you later. From now on, your newspaper will cooperate with the government, and our announcements will be published in your newspaper,” Shen Hao said.

"Yes, thank you, husband," Jin Ruizhi said.

After saying that, he limped away, looking quite pleased with himself.

After the injection, he felt refreshed and his face was rosy and radiant.

Looking at the bloodstains on his clothes, Shen Hao felt very smug.

On the desk, it seems to be the first case indeed.

[Ding dong!

Congratulations, host, on taking Jin Ruizhi as your concubine! You have made a great contribution to the continuation of your family line!

Jin Ruizhi's luck is boosted fivefold.

Rewards: 20 silver dollars, 10 US dollars, one 150mm cannon, ten artillerymen (suicide squads), ten boxes of artillery shells (100 rounds), and one bronze treasure chest.

Critical hits multiply fivefold.

Rewards: 1 million silver dollars, 500,000 US dollars, five Type 96 150mm cannons (with 50 artillerymen as suicide soldiers), 50 boxes of shells, and five bronze treasure chests.

After seeing the reward, Shen Hao was indeed surprised by the 150mm cannon.

Caliber: 149.3mm; Overall length: 6.41m; Barrel length: 6.362m (42.7m)

Combat weight: 10140 kg; Maximum rate of fire: 2 rounds/min

Shell weight: 52.5 kg; Maximum range: 22800 m

This thing is powerful and good for defending a city, but it's too heavy to be suitable for a real attack. Without a truck to transport it, it's inconvenient.

The Type 96 150mm cannon was a rare gem of army artillery during World War II. It was technologically advanced, powerful, and highly accurate. It can be said that its technology was ahead of its time.

This is also the first time Shen Hao has had a 150mm cannon.

There are also five bronze treasure chests.

Last time, Shen Hao hadn't opened the six bronze treasure chests belonging to the three women, Wang Keqin, Yao Yulan, and Yao Yuying.

With these five added, that's enough.
