The Good-for-Nothing Seventh Miss - Chapter 632

Chapter 632: City Construction (3)

Du Lang witnessed how those slaves gradually transformed from hopeless and emotionless beings into characters with vigor and positive spirit. He looked at Shen Yanxiao in surprise, but there was only admiration and astonishment in his eyes.

He knew that Shen Yanxiao disagreed with the idea of slaves. However, she had no other choice.

Even though she bought back those slaves with her, she insisted on her ways to transform them from slaves without any rights to actual human beings.

She used her way to change any worldly views that she could not accept.

When a rabbit went to a wolf’s den, it would become the wolf or turn the wolf into a rabbit.

She gave the slaves the thing that they had wanted the most. Shen Yanxiao might not have realized it, but her actions had gained her loyal followers who would do anything for her.

They thought of her as a goddess, and they would guard her with their life. Shen Yanxiao had given them hope in their most desperate moment and a chance to be an average human again.

“You knew that this would happen, didn’t you?” Du Lang asked Shen Yanxiao. The girl had not reached adulthood yet, but she had surprised him too many times. He was curious about what kind of huge brain must be hidden in that little head of hers that she could manage situations that most adults could not handle.

Shen Yanxiao crouched on the ground as she checked a batch of mineral products that had just been delivered. She turned around and looked at him in confusion.

“Knew about what? I didn’t know where the mineral products are buried in the eastern region. I just told them to get me the mineral products that the other three forces have already mined.” She was not a geologist. No matter how powerful she was, she could not have solved a geological problem.

Du Lang burst into laughter. Shen Yanxiao had no idea what she had done.

Du Lang could not stop his laughter as he fixed his gaze on the girl who got her hands dirty as she crouched by a pile of mineral products. She was truly a hands-on leader. She was not arrogant, even though she was the city master.

“Argh!” Suddenly, they heard a shrill cry.

A delicate and pretty figure ran toward them like a breeze. That person hurried toward Shen Yanxiao, who paid no attention to her appearance, and dragged her up.

“Lady… Shen, why are you doing this filthy work again? We can take care of these for you. Please… don’t get your hands dirty!” The bright girl furrowed her eyebrows. Her light green dress added some life to the glum Sun Never Sets.

Shen Yanxiao looked at Yin Jiuchen, who had taken on a bright, new look, and let her carefully wipe the dirt from her hands with a handkerchief.

Maybe it was because of the similarity of their age. Shen Yanxiao did not ask Yin Jiuchen to handle the logistics, but instead, she kept the skinny girl by her side.

But…

If she had known that she had kept a little nanny by her side, she would have told that bossy little housekeeper to husk some corn with the logistics team!

Yin Jiuchen was grateful for Shen Yanxiao. So, she had followed the city master around like her little tail. Shen Yanxiao had stated that she did not need her attention like that, but Yin Jiuchen would not listen to her. She still followed Shen Yanxiao like a little shadow. Every time Yin Jiuchen saw Shen Yanxiao lifted a finger to do some work, she would rush toward her as if she was a hen protecting her chicks.

“Xiao Jiu, don’t be like this, okay? This is not a big deal. I was just taking a look.”
