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

"Cousin, don't be sad. The money is gone. Don't ruin your health by getting upset," Bai Xiuzhu said.

Wang Yufen sobbed silently.

Who wouldn't be heartbroken if they suddenly went bankrupt?

At that moment, with the arrest of Wanfa's manager, the last shred of hope in her heart vanished completely.

Seeing Wang Yufen's red and swollen eyes, Bai Xiuzhu was also heartbroken, but she didn't know what to do. She was powerless to help; she couldn't very well go to Henan to find Bai Lang's rebel army, much less spend her own money.

Bai Xiuzhu could afford a few thousand silver dollars, but she really couldn't afford fifty thousand.

Even her brother Bai Xiongqi wouldn't give her such a large sum of money. The whole thing started because Wang Yufen was foolish, so she can't blame anyone else.

Woo woo

As she cried, Wang Yufen's voice became hoarse.

Bai Xiuzhu couldn't bear it and looked to Shen Hao for help.

But she also knew that 50,000 silver dollars was not a small amount; such a large sum of money represented the monthly salary of 10,000 soldiers.

Bai Xiuzhu also felt helpless and didn't know what to do.

Shen Hao gave Bai Xiuzhu a hug and smiled slightly, saying, "Don't worry, I've got everything covered."

Bai Xiuzhu felt warm inside at Shen Hao's concern, but she didn't want Shen Hao to waste his money. It wasn't Shen Hao's fault, and she couldn't let him pay for it.

He glanced at Wang Yufen and whispered, "Brother Hao, there's so much money involved, don't be reckless."

Shen Hao smiled and gently pinched Bai Xiuzhu's nose.

"Not bad, at least you know to look to me."

"Of course, that's no small amount," Bai Xiuzhu said very sensibly.

What Bai Xiuzhu didn't know was that 50,000 silver dollars might have killed Wang Yufen, but for Shen Hao, it was just a matter of one shot.

He put his arm around Bai Xiuzhu and kissed her smooth forehead, saying, "Alright, you can go out now. I need to talk to your cousin."

Bai Xiuzhu nodded and said, "Okay, Brother Hao, I'll go out now."

He walked up to Wang Yufen and comforted her, "Cousin, Brother Hao will help you solve this, don't worry. I'm going out now."

Wang Yufen was still crying with her head in her hands, without moving.

Bai Xiuzhu sighed softly, feeling a pang of sadness in her heart.

After all, no one can recover from being scammed out of 50,000 yuan, and at this moment, Bai Xiuzhu could only place her hopes on Shen Hao.

I hope Shen Hao can persuade my cousin.

242. I was just helping Yufen pay off her debts.

After Bai Xiuzhu left, she closed the door, leaving only Wang Yufen and Shen Hao in the room.

Looking at Wang Yufen, who was kneeling on the ground and sobbing, her crying had subsided considerably.

The loss of 5 silver dollars was clearly a huge blow to Wang Yufen.

Seeing this, Shen Hao understood.

He walked up to Wang Yufen with a smile and gently patted her shoulder.

Wang Yufen looked at Shen Hao with red and swollen eyes and a choked voice.

Some people were confused and didn't understand what Shen Hao wanted to do.

Without any unnecessary pleasantries, Shen Hao got straight to the point: "Do you want 50,000 silver dollars?"

What?

Wang Yufen was stunned for a moment, wondering if there was something wrong with her ears.

Her crying stopped abruptly, and she looked at Shen Hao with a puzzled expression, her voice a little hoarse as she said, "I...of course I want it."

"If you want it, then stop crying."

Wang Yufen looked at Shen Hao in confusion. Why shouldn't I cry?

The manager of Wanfa has been executed, which means that the 50,000 silver dollars have been completely lost. How can they get them back?

Wang Yufen understood this very well, which was why she gave up.

Knowing that Wang Yufen didn't believe him, Shen Hao smiled slightly and said, "5 silver dollars may be an astronomical figure for you, your entire fortune."

But for me, it's just a drop in the ocean, a matter of an hour.

"Since you're Xiuzhu's cousin, I can make up the difference for you."

Wang Yufen's breath hitched, and she looked at Shen Hao in disbelief.

Could it be that crying for too long caused hallucinations?

Would you easily give someone 50,000 silver dollars?

Seeing that Wang Yufen remained unmoved, Shen Hao frowned slightly and said, "What? You're not willing? Or do you think it's too little?"

Wang Yufen then realized that Shen Hao really wanted to give her money.

Overjoyed, he hurriedly asked, "Governor Shen, you're really willing to give me money? But why? Is it just because I'm Bai Xiuzhu's cousin?"

Wang Yufen had some doubts.

That reason is too far-fetched; it's 50,000 silver dollars, not just a few hundred yuan.

There's no such thing as a free lunch, and Wang Yufen understands that principle.

However, the thought of fifty thousand silver dollars made her unable to calm down.

After hesitating for a moment, he whispered, "Governor Shen, I know you won't give me 50,000 silver dollars for no reason. There must be some conditions attached."

If you need anything, just tell me, and I'll do it if I can.

Shen Hao didn't waste any words, but instead used his index finger to lift Wang Yufen's chin.

It feels delicate and smooth to the touch, with a very good feel.

He then pinched Wang Yufen's cheek, which was very bouncy.

Wang Yufen blushed, held her breath, and stared intently, her beautiful eyes filled with shyness.

My heart started pounding so hard it felt like it was going to explode.

She wasn't stupid; Shen Hao's actions were so obvious that they made her somewhat apprehensive.

However, there were some unexpected surprises as well as some delightful moments.

Surprisingly, Shen Hao actually took a liking to her.

Surprisingly, Shen Hao has feelings for her?

Faced with Shen Hao's domineering approach, Wang Yufen was not disgusted; in fact, she secretly looked forward to what would happen next.

Deep down, she felt a kind of admiration and love for Shen Hao.

Now, after being swindled out of 50,000 silver dollars, Wang Yufen is completely disappointed in the third son of the Jin family.

He's a complete waste of space.

If you rely on him, you'll probably starve for the rest of your life.

Shen Hao's unexpected appearance completely filled the emptiness in Wang Yufen's heart.

However, what shocked and puzzled Wang Yufen even more was that Shen Hao was really willing to spend 50,000 yuan just to sleep with her.

Is 50,000 for one shot too expensive?

Although Wang Yufen was quite confident in her looks, she still felt that 50,000 yuan a night was a bit too expensive.

Looking at Shen Hao somewhat embarrassedly, she said shyly, "Governor Shen, are you really willing to give me 5 silver dollars, or are you lying to me?"

Shen Hao smiled and affirmed, "Of course it's true. If you perform well, I might add another ten thousand silver dollars, it's not impossible."

Upon hearing this, Wang Yufen's breath hitched, feeling a mixture of excitement and humiliation.

Fifty thousand silver dollars for sex? It sounds like I'm a prostitute from a brothel.

However, she has a very good impression of Shen Hao.

My heart was filled with mixed feelings, and my thoughts were racing.

She didn't dislike Shen Hao; she was willing to accept even if he didn't give her money.

Of course, Wang Yufen also felt that Shen Hao wanted to take advantage of her vulnerability and deceive her into having sex.

She still had some doubts that Shen Hao was lying, but then she thought again, no way.

At Shen Hao's level, how could he possibly deceive people?

····Requesting flowers·· ···

If he couldn't have any woman, why would he need to tell such a lie?

Besides, given Shen Hao's current status and identity, even if he were fooled, he wouldn't suffer any loss.

Everything is left unsaid; saying too much would spoil the mood.
