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

Shen Hao took a deep breath and sighed, "Give him a quick death, execute him. Dying in a daze is a relief for him."

"It is the Governor-General."

boom!

A gunshot ended a life lived in a daze...

In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed, with the completion of the power plant and munitions factory.

A massive power grid transformation began throughout Guangzhou.

Electricity was slowly restored to every household.

Foshan, Qingshi, and other places are also eagerly anticipating the moment when the power will be connected.

It can be said that Shen Hao's arrival gave them new hope.

Its soaps and toilet paper, due to their low prices, quickly gained a nationwide market share.

They squeezed out all the foreign goods.

It is in short supply every day and is known as a source of pride for Chinese products.

Making a fortune every day is no problem.

This is something that countless people envy.

**, Jurentang.

Yuan Datou couldn't stop smiling as he looked at the shares Shen Hao had given him.

"This kid is quite sensible. I heard that his soap factory and paper mill are very profitable, with each factory making hundreds of thousands of silver dollars in profit every month."

Sixth Concubine Ye Zhen smiled and said, "Yes, Ah Hao's Gu Ben soap is not only solid in appearance, but also pure in color, fragrant, with few impurities, and durable. It is very popular because of its strong cleaning power."

I heard that the manager of Lever Brothers in the UK is extremely anxious.

Lever Brothers was one of the few super-large companies in Britain and even the world at the time, and its soap production was unmatched.

They seized the opportunity presented by Shanghai's forced opening to foreign trade, established themselves in China, and quickly became the largest soap factory in the Far East, capturing a significant market share.

The fifth concubine said somewhat greedily, "However, these two factories are so profitable. As the steward of the Yuan household, they should both be under my name. That would only amount to 2.3."

Sixth concubine Ye Zhen stood aside, not daring to speak.

This time, Shen Hao gave Yuan Shikai 30 percent of the shares in both the soap factory and the paper mill.

However, these shares were not given directly to Yuan Shikai, but rather to Ye Zhen, the sixth concubine, who received 10% to 30% of the paper mill's shares.

He gave the fifth concubine 30 percent of the shares in the soap factory.

Yuan Datou didn't care; no matter which concubine he gave it to, the money was still his.

Her attitude towards Shen Hao improved again.

Obedient comrades are good comrades.

"Alright, stop arguing. Aren't you two satisfied with one serving each?"

"The other concubines have nothing, should we call them over too?" Yuan Datou said.

The fifth concubine immediately shut her mouth and had no choice but to remain silent.

Meanwhile, Shen Hao finally completed his commander's task and began to collect his rewards.

217. Open the golden treasure chest!

Gong Baosen brought his daughter from Fengtian to Guangdong.

Upon meeting, Gong Er's usually aloof and refined face was filled with stubbornness and resentment.

She is a woman with an innate talent and passion for martial arts, and a fiercely independent woman who only accepts defeat from herself.

She still harbors resentment about losing to Shen Hao last time.

Now a master of internal strength, she is bursting with confidence.

Moreover, he had a deeper understanding of the Gong family's sixty-fourth generation, so he wanted to challenge Shen Hao again and avenge his previous defeat.

"May I ask Governor Shen for some guidance?"

Shen Hao looked at the stubborn Gong Er and immediately laughed. The little girl didn't know her place.

Shen Hao laughed and said, "Since you want to be beaten, then I'll grant your wish, but I can't just fight you for no reason."

He's a governor, after all; it's shameful for anyone to come and challenge him.

Gong Er snorted and said, "If you can beat me, I'll willingly become your concubine; if you can't, then forget about it."

Shen Hao said, "Fine, since you deserve a beating, I'll grant your wish."

"Hmph, we don't know who hit whom yet, but don't cry later," Gong Er said arrogantly.

Gong Baosen, standing to the side, asked with some concern, "Will this be alright?"

"Don't worry, junior brother. Even if Ruomei trains for decades, she still can't beat Governor Shen."

"Don't even mention Ruomei, even you wouldn't be able to withstand a few hits," Ding Lianshan said casually, flicking the ash from his cigarette.

Gong Baosen exclaimed in astonishment, "You mean this Governor Shen has reached the Transformation Realm?"

Ding Lianshan nodded and said, "Not only that, their strength and speed are several times mine, and they can learn my moves after seeing them only once."

Gong Baosen was shocked, never expecting Shen Hao to be so powerful.

"Could this be a genius, one in a million?"

Huang Qiying said admiringly, "I don't know, but Governor Shen is the most talented person I have ever seen, without exception."

I only practiced my Shadowless Kick once, but I memorized it. In less than a month, Commander Shen's Shadowless Kick was already on par with mine. He's simply a monster!"

Upon hearing this, Gong Baosen gasped, his gaze fixed on Shen Hao with utter disbelief.

Gong Er adopted the starting stance of the Gong family, and Shen Hao did the same.

Gong Er snorted and said, "Governor Shen, you should use your own methods. Otherwise, you might end up with a dog instead of a tiger, and you'll be embarrassed."

Shen Hao beckoned with his hand and said, "I could kill you with one hand."

Feeling looked down upon like this, Gong Er's eyes gradually hardened as she stepped forward.

He turned his right hand to grab, trying to subdue Shen Hao.

The Gong family's Sixty-Four Hands are a set of routines that are based on practical techniques of combat and grappling.

However, Shen Hao interrupted her with a light wave of his hand, and instead grabbed Gong Er's wrist with a reverse grip, rendering her unable to move. He used her waving hand to do so.

Gong Er turned around to try and choke him, but all her moves were full of flaws in Shen Hao's eyes, and he grabbed her other hand even faster.

Shen Hao had already grabbed her and held her tightly in his arms, making it impossible for her to move.

"Do you accept it or not?"

Gong Er wanted to protest, but she knew she was no match for Shen Hao.

If you can't even defeat them in one move, how can you fight back?

Shocked by Shen Hao's strength, she asked with some confusion, "Why do you know our Gong family's secret technique?"

"Is it difficult? I'll understand it after watching it once," Shen Hao said.

Gong Er was stunned, looking at Shen Hao in disbelief. Is there really such a talented person?

Gong Baosen said, "Since Ruomei has already lost, she should admit it openly and honestly, and not give the impression that she can't accept defeat."

"Yes, Father."

"I lost. I will keep my promise and willingly become your concubine." After Gong Er finished speaking, a faint blush appeared on her beautiful cheeks.

Her beautiful eyes also showed a hint of shyness.

Her ears were all red.

They looked so cute.

Shen Hao said, "Then let's get married tomorrow."

“Yes, it’s your decision,” Gong Er said, her head bowed.

Gong Baosen had no objection; as Zhang Zuolin's bodyguard, he couldn't leave for too long.

Seeing Gong Er get married sooner would make it easier to leave.

So, the next day, at the urging of the women, Shen Hao took another concubine.

The servants in the mansion had already gotten used to it.

If their husbands stopped taking concubines, they would all start to suspect that something was wrong with them.

Gong Baosen and Ding Lianshan, the two fellow disciples, also had a good time drinking.

"I should have been the one to kill that Japanese ronin back then. Developing the sect is too difficult. It's better for my senior brother to enjoy life with Governor Shen," Gong Baosen sighed.

“Your calm and steady temperament makes you the right candidate for sect leader. I’m not suitable,” Ding Lianshan said.

Then, he added, "I've discovered that taking on apprentices and teaching martial arts in the military is also a good option; there are quite a few promising talents here."
