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

I was also a little scared.

She was afraid that Shen Hao would reject her.

Shen Hao's lips curled up slightly; this young woman seemed to be interested in him.

Shen Hao is very knowledgeable about this.

So, with a serious expression, he shook his head and said, "If I stay, I will suffer for the rest of my life. Do you want me to suffer for the rest of my life?"

Bai Xiuzhu opened her mouth, but swallowed the words back down, feeling a complex mix of emotions.

Just then, a patrolman outside said, "Chief, we've arrived at the Bai residence."

Bai Xiuzhu took a deep breath and got out of the car.

He had just stepped inside when he couldn't help but turn back and say, "Don't forget you still owe me three things."

Shen Hao waved his hand and said, "Of course I won't forget. Come anytime, and I'll return it anytime."

Bai Xiongqi happened to see this scene when he was off work.

I couldn't help but frown.

Ever since Bai Xiuzhu and Shen Hao met.

Bai Xiongqi had already conducted a brief investigation into Shen Hao. He was fluent in foreign languages, young, capable, resourceful, and good at handling things; he was a promising young talent.

He was addicted to gambling in his youth and lost his ancestral home, but now he has turned over a new leaf and has a bright future ahead of him.

Logically speaking, this is definitely the ideal husband.

However, Shen Hao has already married four women, clearly showing his womanizing ways.

As a man and a frequent visitor to the Eight Great Hutongs, Bai Xiongqi didn't think much of Shen Hao's multiple women.

However, if Shen Hao were her brother-in-law, that wouldn't work.

Back home, before Bai Xiongqi could speak, Bai Xiuzhu spoke up.

Brother, I need your help with something.

Bai Xiongqi's heart skipped a beat. This girl had never asked anyone for anything before. Could her attitude today be because of that Shen Hao?

Thinking of this, Bai Xiongqi remained expressionless, wanting to see what his sister was up to.

"Oh, the sun has risen in the west! My sister actually knows how to ask for favors now, haha, why don't you tell us about it?" Bai Xiongqi teased.

Bai Xiuzhu walked behind Bai Xiongqi and gently massaged his shoulders, saying with a smile, "A friend of mine, the director of a branch office, wants to go to another place to become a county magistrate."

However, nowadays, to become a county magistrate, one needs a recommendation from a provincial civil affairs official or higher.

So, I need your help.

Bai Xiongqi guessed that it was Shen Hao.

Why would someone become a minor county magistrate for no apparent reason?

Suddenly, an idea struck him: since this kid wants to be the county magistrate, why not just agree to his request?

In this way, he and Bai Xiuzhu will be very far apart, and they will never cross paths again.

This just put an end to Bai Xiuzhu's hopes.

really not bad.

Although I was more than willing, I couldn't just say it lightly.

So Bai Xiongqi pretended to be serious and said, "Nonsense, the magistrate of a county must go through layers of selection and examination."

How can you recommend things randomly? Isn't that ridiculous?

Bai Xiuzhu immediately sat down on the sofa angrily, her beautiful eyes reddening as she said, "Dad, Mom, look how my brother has treated me since you left."

I asked him to do even a small favor, and he wouldn't even listen! Waaah, I don't want to live anymore!

Bai Xiongqi was immediately in a real bind.

He feared nothing and no one, except his younger sister Bai Xiuzhu crying.

So he quickly said, "Okay, I promise you, don't cry anymore."

Bai Xiuzhu's eyes lit up, and she burst out laughing.

I knew you were the best to me, brother.

As she spoke, she obediently massaged Bai Xiongqi's shoulders.

Bai Xiongqi snorted coldly and slapped Bai Xiuzhu's hand away.

He complained, "I'm like your brother whenever I help you, but not when I don't. It's true what they say, daughters grow up and leave home; I've never seen you treat me this well before."

Bai Xiuzhu blushed and gently nudged Bai Xiongqi.

"Brother, you're so annoying!"

Meanwhile, this scene also occurred at the Kim family's home.

Jin Yanxi also sought Jin Quan's recommendation.

It has to be said that with the two bigwigs who were Yuan Shikai stepping in, Zhao Bingjun, the general manager, approved it without hesitation.

The next day, Bai Xiuzhu and Jin Yanxi each handed a letter of appointment to Shen Hao.

Bai Xiuzhu gave Shen Hao a letter of appointment as the magistrate of Echeng County, Guangdong Province.

Jin Yanxi gave Shen Hao a letter of appointment as the magistrate of Zishui County, Shaanxi Province.

Both letters of appointment were given to Shen Hao; it was up to him to choose.

Zishui County, Echeng?

It seems that we have never heard of it in history.

Is Zishui County the same Zishui County mentioned in the novel "White Deer Plain"?

Goose City, is this the Goose City from Let the Bullets Fly?

It should be, since both of those counties are fictional.

After a moment's thought, Shen Hao made his choice.

Lu Chengwu's father, Lu Jianzhang, will be promoted by Yuan Shikai to the position of military governor of Shaanxi Province in two years, giving him control over the province's military and political affairs.

A true local tyrant.

I have a grudge against Lu Chengwu, so I definitely can't go.

That kid, I'll kill him sooner or later.

Zishui County is in Shaanxi Province. Isn't this just handing it over to us? We definitely can't go to Shaanxi Province.

In the capital, Lu Chengwu might be more restrained, but in Shaanxi Province, far from the emperor's reach, and with his father being the military governor and local tyrant of Shaanxi, killing a county magistrate was as easy as child's play.

Thinking of this, Shen Hao said, "I'll go to Goose City."

Upon hearing this, Bai Xiuzhu was overjoyed, and her beautiful eyes looked at Shen Hao with satisfaction.

Jin Yanxi exclaimed in surprise, "There are many revolutionaries in Goose City; we can't help you with anything there!"

Shen Hao patted Jin Yanxi on the shoulder and said, "Thanks, brother. If you ever need my help, just let me know."

Shen Hao was sincere in saying that.

After meeting Jin Yanxi, this guy wholeheartedly helped her. Although he was a second-generation rich kid, he didn't have any bad intentions.

He's a good friend.

Shen Hao had made up his mind, and Jin Yanxi did not try to persuade him any further.

Then, Jin Yanxi said, "Brother Shen, I heard you own a courtyard house in the alley over there in Badaowan?"

Shen Hao nodded and said, "What's wrong with having a few sets?"

These houses were all seized from Liu Si.

“Leng Qingqiu’s family also lives in that area. I’m thinking of buying a house there,” Jin Yanxi said with a smile.

Bai Xiuzhu rolled her eyes and looked at Jin Yanxi with disdain.

They're practically begging for favors right at our doorstep.

Shen Hao said, "It's just a courtyard house, I'll give it to you."

"How could I possibly accept that?" Jin Yanxi said happily.
