Chapter 184 He is poor, but she is so rich
When Shen Ru heard Xiao Wujin talking about his money seriously, she couldn't help but burst into laughter.

It's not like she didn't know that Xiao Wujin was very poor!

"Why are you laughing?"

Xiao Wujin looked at Shen Ru and asked, "What did you gain from this trip to the Western Regions?"

"Yes, there are too many."

Shen Ruxiao calmed down a little, and then told Xiao Wujin something.

"Someone wants to promote the integration of the grassland tribes and then start a war with Daduan."

"Who?" Xiao Wujin's heart sank. Zhao Gongming had noticed someone sneaking around outside the customs before.But after a month of practice, nothing happened.

"I don't know who it is, but what we met and heard is that the tribes on the grassland are compatibility. One tribe has become stronger. I heard that someone is providing something behind the scenes."

Shen Ru couldn't tell Pei Wenjing's identity, so she could only pretend that she didn't know.

"If you want to invade Liangzhou from the grassland, then... are you from the Western Regions?"

"There are several small countries in the Western Region. There is civil strife in Gaochang. Others, the Yan family is doing business and they don't know about political affairs."

Shen Ru also talked about things in Innocence City. Well, there is no need to talk about exploring the castle.

"Master Xiao, what can you say here?"

Shen Ru also asked casually. She was the one who said all the time that she was a little thirsty!
"Pei Chongguang is a smart boy. He has read poetry and books since he was a child. There is not much I can teach him."

Xiao Wujin and Shen Ru were walking and talking.

"It seems that the direction of the wind has changed again. No more killers are coming to kill Pei Chongguang!"

"Then he is still your apprentice?" Shen Ru couldn't help but ask.

Didn't you accept Pei Chongguang as your disciple just to protect him from killers?

"If he wasn't a jade, would I accept it?"

Xiao Wujin asked back, after a pause, he continued: "It is because he is both a raw jade and a man in danger that I accepted him as my disciple. But now that his crisis is over, he can study hard with me. Got it!"

"It's good to have your approval."

Shen Ru nodded and said: "This Western Region doesn't really need my oil lamps and stone candles. The sunshine there is very long, and it's already midnight when the sun sets, so they all get a lot of rest."

"So, Yan Shaoqing suggested that we should look at the southwest march!"

Xiao Wujin looked slightly solemn after hearing this.

"The rebels in the southwest are unstoppable. The country of Daduan is in turmoil. I don't know what will happen to Liangzhou by then!"

Xiao Wujin had never mentioned the worries in his heart to anyone, but while chatting with Shen Ru like this, he couldn't help but express his feelings.

"Liangzhou, it shouldn't be affected, right? Relevant foreign forces are restraining it, and it's impossible for the border troops to leave. The palace will never issue an order to let the border troops return to the court!"

Shen Ru recalled the plot of the original work and found that there had never been a war in Liangzhou.

"That's not it."

Xiao Wujin also had connections in the court, and they had always exchanged letters.

"No matter what, I will exempt these refugees from hard labor once the work of digging the river is completed."

Shen Ru was thinking, if the country changes hands, will Xiao Wujin, the governor of Liangzhou, not count?
Their status as exiles also belongs to the former dynasty. As long as the new emperor grants amnesty, they can all return to their status as civilians!
However, this war is impossible within two or three years.

In the original work, Cui Ti should be with Pei Wenjing at this moment!

I don't know where Pei Wenjing's money came from in the early stage, but in the later stage, Cui Ti's mother clan played a very big role. The most expensive thing in war is money!

Shen Ru's silence made Xiao Wujin look at her a few more times.

"This time you go to the Western Region, what are your plans?"

"Oh, I want to grow cotton. The cotton from Sand Dune City and Gaochang Country is of very good quality."

Shen Ru immediately said: "Besides, our clothes are only comfortable if they are made of cotton!"

"Only those who are rich or noble can afford it." Xiao Wujin said, "Look at the people in Liangzhou, most of them wear coarse linen clothes."

Shen Ru looked at Xiao Wujin. The clothes he was wearing were not made of cotton, but... they were indeed a bit old!
"I won't bother Mr. Xiao with this. I think there must be someone who knows how to sell land!"

Shen Ru planned the future and spoke in high spirits.

"Buy the land first, and then hire people to grow cotton. Mr. Xiao, this is also an opportunity for me to make money by doing things for others."

"There will be cotton picking in the future, but it will cost people."

Xiao Wujin looked at Shen Ru, "Your Shen family is very rich?"

"Master Xiao, the look in your eyes makes me feel like you are plotting against my family!"

Shen Ru bluntly said that the Shen family is rich, but they don’t want to be ripped off!
"However, if it is beneficial to people's livelihood, I can sponsor some."

She has too much gold, silver and jewelry. If it can be used on the people, she will feel relieved!
"How many?"

Xiao Wujin couldn't help but wonder, a few hundred taels, a few thousand taels, or tens of thousands of taels?

"Master Xiao, we can discuss this matter slowly."

Shen Ru smiled and said, "For example, if the river causes people to migrate, wouldn't it be a problem if Liangzhou has nowhere to resettle?"

"If necessary, I would also like to build tens of millions of mansions, so that all the poor people in the world will be happy!"

Xiao Wujin was shocked, looking at Shen Ru's eyes with inexplicable enthusiasm.

"Teaching people how to fish is worse than teaching them how to fish. First of all, I have something to do in Liangzhou, right?"

Xiao Wujin kept looking at Shen Ru, feeling filled with emotion in his heart. How broad-minded does she have to have such great ambitions?

"Shen Ru, if what you want, what you want to do, can benefit the people, just go ahead and do it!"

Finally, Xiao Wujin said seriously.

After hearing Xiao Wujin's words, Shen Rule became happy. She was rich, very rich; and with the golden words of the Liangzhou governor, why couldn't she just let go and do something big?

After returning, she bought land, built a pasture, and grew cotton.

"Master Xiao, should I take you back to the city, or do you want to go to the river again?"

After everything was said, Shen Ru spoke up and suggested.

"Go to the other side of the river. I don't know if Lu Yi can hold on alone."

Xiao Wujin answered directly, "Shen Ru, I will consider relocating the village you mentioned."

Doesn't she have to build a house first?

Shen Ru made a mental calculation. Naturally, resources must be replaced. Money can be spent, but it cannot be spent uncontrollably!

"Master Xiao, you are sincere for the people, they will know it."

Shen Ru encouraged Xiao Wujin.

The two of them returned to the river embankment before, and those people were no longer there.

Lu Yi had a lot of mud on his body, but he kept waiting for Xiao Wujin to come back.

"Miss Shen, thank you very much. Fortunately you are here, otherwise we adults would be like me!"

Lu Yi sighed with emotion: "I only have a few decent clothes. If I can't wash them clean, I won't have anything to wear in the future!"

"Lu Yi, be careful what you say!"

Xiao Wujin was a little embarrassed. In the past, he didn't care about these things. He was poor and he recognized it!
But in front of Shen Ru, he actually felt a little embarrassed.

"Master Xiao, if the harvest in my cotton field is good in the future, I will definitely have someone send you some cotton clothes!"

Shen Ru didn't notice Xiao Wujin's uneasiness and only said teasingly.
