Don’t be too poisonous to the concubine of the Wu family who was born in Wu

Chapter 1928 86. Spiritual Beast Arena (Shan Lingyao reported on the military situation and revealed the difficulties in Western Xinjiang)
  Wu Xuanyue held up the peony cake and looked at it again and again, but did not put it in her mouth. Instead, she looked directly at the face of the woman opposite her through the edge of the peony cake.

"How do you know I deliberately said I didn't like the food?"

Shan Lingyao took off the veil, placed it on the edge of the table, broke it with both hands, and broke the peony cake into two halves. He kept the left half for himself and handed over the right half.

"Miss, I feel sorry for Lingyao. How can Lingyao not know what Miss is thinking? Such delicious sweets are expensive and can only be eaten together in three to two months or half a year. We are all girls, who can resist such delicious food?" What? The lady is sympathetic to Lingyao, how could Lingyao be ignorant? Just like this, Lingyao would break half of it and send it to the lady every time, and the lady would refuse. What did Lingyao do and say at that time? "

"If Miss doesn't eat, then Lingyao won't eat either -"

Wu Xuanyue responded without thinking. The relationship was so good at that time.

"So... don't worry, miss, it will never be good again. No matter how much time passes, it will never change."

Hearing this, Wu Xuanyue sighed. She took half a piece of peony cake from Lingyao's hand with a smile and put it into her mouth with mixed emotions.

The two of them quietly ate half of the peony cake in their hands. The taste was no longer the same as when they were children, but it felt like they were back when they were children.

After a long silence, Wu Xuanyue first broke the calm——

"This Di Jiuli's peony cake is exquisite and delicious. Why can't I taste it like Yuexia's?"

Shan Lingyao responded: "The soil and water support the people. I'm afraid the raw materials, formulas and production techniques are all different from what we ate when we were children."

Wu Xuanyue smiled, raised her cup to sip tea and said, "It doesn't matter, one day, sooner or later, we will return to Wumen, and then my sister will be satisfied with as many peony cakes as she wants."

Shan Lingyao nodded seriously and said, "Well, Lingyao firmly believes that there will be that day."

The two actually raised the tea cup in question in a tacit understanding, touched it in the air, smiled tacitly, and drank the tea in silence.

"Although there is no good wine, our current status is not suitable for drinking. My sister will drink tea instead of wine. The two of us will celebrate a little. We won the first battle and stirred up the porridge of the four martial arts countries. I, Wu Xuanyue, have finally taken a strategic step. The first step toward sex.”

Shan Lingyao was still expressionless, "Well, Lingyao knows that Miss is happy today, otherwise she wouldn't have prepared this table. Lingyao is also happy for Miss."

Wu Xuanyue handed the peony cake in his hand over again: "Yes, we fought beautifully in this battle, our calculations were precise, everything went according to our plan, but the next step is to be extremely careful, after all, this is a powerful sect. , Our previous actions were too big, and most likely it has attracted the attention of the Quan clan, so we must be more careful in the future."

Shan Lingyao nodded seriously and asked, "What are you going to do next, Miss?"

Wu Xuanyue leaned forward and lowered her voice: "After raising pigs for a hundred days, what should you do when the pigs get fat?"

Shan Lingyao nodded knowingly and said: "Of course I have to swing my knife down and kill the pig for food."

Wu Xuanyue continued to ask: "So, does my sister think now is the time to slaughter the pig?"

Shan Lingyao looked away thoughtfully and said slowly: "This pig is already fat and healthy, but this pig-killing knife..."

Wu Xuanyue chuckled and said, "Yes, butchering the pig may not go smoothly before the butcher's knife arrives."

Shan Lingyao's eyes dimmed and he asked, "Miss, are you going to sharpen your knife?"

Wu Xuanyue immediately sat up straight and became serious - "Let's not talk about this matter anymore. Let me ask you something else - how is Cao Yunfei doing recently?"

When Cao Yunfei was mentioned, Shan Lingyao immediately became happy: "Why did the young lady suddenly mention Mayor Cao? Isn't this what she was staring at right in front of her eyes? Then there was something wrong with the Mayor Cao, didn't the young lady see it clearly? Besides, didn't she see it clearly? ...Young lady has successfully swept away Miss Wu Da, what else is there for you to worry about?"

Wu Xuanyue's eyes flashed, and she stared straight at Shan Lingyao and said: "That's not what I'm talking about. I'm not interested in his emotional life at all now. What I want to know is his martial arts in the recent period." Is there any progress?”

Shan Lingyao was stunned, and then she realized that Wu Xuanyue's sudden seriousness was not the so-called love affair, but an ulterior motive.

Shan Lingyao asked tentatively: "The lady asked what the so-called improvement in martial arts means?"

Wu Xuanyue said seriously: "To be honest, how many cities has he revived recently? How much merit does it take to summon the white tiger beast?"

Only then did Shan Lingyao understand Wu Xuanyue's intention and quickly replied: "In the first two months, Town Master Cao worked really hard. It was probably because of the young lady's words that he was greatly stimulated. He was obsessed with practicing martial arts. In just two months, he At that time, Lord Cao of the town had awakened hundreds of cities, but he had saved less than fifty."

Wu Xuanyue was speechless while listening to the tea tasting.

Shan Lingyao paused for a moment, carefully observed Wu Xuanyue's face, and continued to report the situation——

"Some cities are very old. Even if Lord Cao is lucky enough to be able to wake up the city, it will still be an empty city with no human habitation for a long time. There are more than four cities in this rescue city. Ten of them are fully staffed, and more than twenty cities have their staff reduced by half. , the remaining cities are sparsely populated..."

Hearing this, Wu Xuanyue frowned slightly, curled her lips, and put the tea quilt in her hand on the table.

"Nakong City always needs people to farm and irrigate it to maintain the status quo of the oasis. If it is uninhabited all year round, it will be desertified sooner or later. Didn't Cao Yunfei try to mobilize many people in the city to move to the empty city to open up new territories?"

Shan Lingyao replied: "Zhenzhu Cao has mobilized many times, but people's hearts are stubborn and human nature is lazy and lazy. Who is willing to let go of his current comfort zone and go to a poor and remote place to suffer hardships?"

Wu Xuanyue frowned and asked: "This is Cao Yunfei's fault. The policy is tilted and supportive, and there must be brave men under the generous reward. There will be someone willing to be this pioneer."

Shan Lingyao answered again: "Zhenzhu Cao has also thought of many ways with Mr. Ji, but unfortunately Xijiang's finances are not rich to begin with. No matter how much policy support there is, without capital injection, how can any fool be willing to take this risk?" What about the risks?”

Upon saying this, Wu Xuanyue fell silent——

After all, she has been in Xijiang, and she knows best how Xijiang's finances are.

As the saying goes, it is difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without rice. Even though Cao Yunfei was doing great things, just having no money would make it difficult for him before liberation.

"That's it...it really makes things difficult for him, Cao Yunfei...the Western Frontier is vast but barren, but it's not as rich and wealthy as the Eastern Cang, which has everything..."

Shan Lingyao nodded knowingly and said: "It would be best if Miss Cao can understand Town Lord Cao. Town Lord Cao is young after all. He also works hard to run Xijiang well, but sometimes, many things cannot be done by him alone." The one who can turn things around...he also has his difficulties."

"I understand his difficulties..."

Wu Xuanyue lowered her head and sipped her tea, her thoughts already flying to the sky...
