Global Desertification: I am accumulating merit in another world

Shen Lishu waved his hand, "Everyone will be rewarded!"

A large basket of red envelopes that had been prepared long ago was placed on the table.

When everyone heard that there was a reward, they all smiled happily and said nice things as if they were free.

Shen Lishu was so happy as he gave out red envelopes to everyone one by one.

She caught a glimpse of Xiao Mu coming in from the corner of her eye, and hurriedly gave her seat to Cui Wei.

"Xiao Mu, Happy New Year!" Shen Lishu held a big red purse in his palm, which was bulging.

It's obvious that it was prepared individually.

Xiao Mu took it and put it in his arms, then took out a red envelope, "Shen Lishu, Happy New Year."

The voice was gentle and serious, with a gleam in his eyes.

An ambiguous atmosphere spread, and pink bubbles flowed between the two people.

Suddenly, Shen Feng's dark face came into view.

He stood between the two of them, blocking Shen Lishu's view.

He looked at Xiao Mu with disdain, looking for trouble, "How dare you give out such a small red envelope?"

Xiao Mu smiled slightly and bowed as a junior, "Uncle is as gentle as the breeze and bright moon, I am not as good as you.

But... this gift is indeed a bit too light.

So I prepared some gifts and placed them outside the courtyard."

Shen Feng glanced at the piles of boxes in the yard and snorted coldly, "Who cares!"

After saying that, he took Shen Lishu and left, "Come with me to eat."

An Yi covered his forehead and sighed. That's it? That's it?

If this goes on, the master will probably never be able to deal with his father-in-law in his entire life.

Shen Lishu shook his father's arm.

"Dad, Happy New Year, may you make a fortune, give me the red envelope!"

Shen Feng stuffed a red envelope into her mouth unhappily, "I don't have much private money to begin with, so I have to give it to you."

Shen Lishu took it with a smile, "It's okay, everything in the yard belongs to you, why should we go against money?"

"Am I the one who sold the girl?" Shen Feng blew his beard and glared.

Shen Lishu hurriedly smoothed over, "No, no, my dad is the person who loves me the most in the world."

"The main reason is that our family is big and our expenses are high."

"Humph!" Shen Feng turned his head, "Anyway, I don't agree with what you two are doing."

"That young man is old and has lost both his parents. It's obvious that he is unlucky with his relatives. I hope he won't bring bad luck to you anymore."

Shen Feng was extremely regretful at this moment. If he had known that she would bring back such a pretty boy, he would have agreed to match her up with Lin Chen.

The young man is young and energetic, sensible and filial.

It's a pity that it's a second-hand item that has been cancelled.

Shen Lishu was frowning. Are you picking cabbages here?

I'm not that popular, okay?

In a blink of an eye, it is the Lantern Festival.

Unfortunately, the weather is too cold this year and the lantern festival cannot be held.

Hearing that the Turks were ready to make another move, Shen Lishu was summoned by the Lord of Phoenix City to discuss the matter.

"I received news that His Majesty intends to move south. What do you think of this?"

"Humph! What can we do? He just walked away. What are we, the people living near the border, going to do?"

The man who was speaking had a thin face, sharp eyes, and a righteous demeanor.

Secretary Shen Li remembered that he seemed to be some kind of Gongcao, with the surname Li and a righteous man.

"Hey, be careful with your words,"

"Your Majesty had no choice." Another person quickly stepped forward to smooth things over.

Having said that, the young man in gorgeous clothes did not look nervous at all.

"You can't just abandon us!" Li Gongcao slammed the table and stood up.

"These Turkic barbarians are extremely vicious. If they come all the way here to kill us, we will all be killed by their swords!"

For a time, people were talking about it. Some advocated following the emperor south, while others believed that the court was unreliable.

Fengwu should break away from the court and establish himself as king.

Shen Lishu remained silent the entire time; she really didn't want to get involved in these matters.

Feng Wu has had the intention of rebelling for a long time, and now he is just taking precautions.

Once the emperor moved south, she would have a reason.

"Everyone, please be patient." The Lord of Phoenix City said, "The matter of His Majesty's migration to the south has not yet been finalized, so we cannot make any rash judgments.

The most urgent task now is how to deal with the Turks. Phoenix City is adjacent to Fengcheng, so there is no guarantee that it will not become the next target of attack."

The nobleman in gorgeous clothes leaned back in his chair like a boneless person, pointed at Shen Lishu and said lazily:

"The people under Miss Shen are all brave and good at fighting. We can just stop them like we did last year."

Shen Lishu sneered. These people looked down on her, but at the same time wanted her to work for them unconditionally.

It's true, ugly but with beautiful dreams.

“It’s easy for Patriarch Zhang to say this, but no matter how capable my subordinates are, they are still flesh and blood!

Why should I be the one doing all the dirty work? I am not from Phoenix."

"you……!"

"Okay!" Feng Wu interrupted quickly.

idiot!

She didn't even dare to offend Shen Lishu.

"What Patriarch Shen said makes sense. Last year was a special case. After all, this is our own business in Phoenix City."

Feng Wu glanced at everyone and said in a deep voice: "The situation is tense now, we should work together to resist the foreign enemies instead of arguing here.

The Turks are coming with great force, and we must come up with a response plan as soon as possible."

Everyone looked at each other in silence. After a moment, Li Gongcao spoke first:

"What the city lord said is absolutely right, our primary task should be to defend the city.

But now we are short of manpower and weapons and equipment, what should we do?"

Feng Wu frowned slightly, thought for a moment and said, "You can ask for help from Huacheng and Fengcheng."

Tanzhou and Huizhou have just recovered a little, and can no longer be relied upon.

"Also, organize the people in the city to conduct defense training in case of emergency."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Feng Wu glanced at Shen Lishu, and hesitated to speak, "The others go down, Master Shen stays."

The two moved to the study, and Shen Lishu slumped down on the chair.

"What does the City Lord want to say?"

Feng Wu personally poured her a cup of tea and said, "You and I are both women, and I understand how difficult it is for women to be in the officialdom.

Master Shen, I apologize to you for their words and actions.

However, every citizen has a share of responsibility for the rise and fall of a country. I know that the master of the family is very capable and a very kind person. Can you bear to watch the people being displaced?

If Phoenix City is destroyed, what will happen to the girls in your house and the children in the nursery?"

Shen Lishu tightened his grip on the cup and gave a meaningful smile.

“In fact, when I knew that the city lord was a woman, I also admired you.

But what the city lord said is a bit uncomfortable. "

“Last year, when I came to the City Lord’s Mansion to discuss matters, everyone bullied me because I was young and a woman.

In order to save face, I took on the task of stopping the Turks.

Now that everyone knows my abilities, it’s not that easy to ask me for help again.”

Feng Wu narrowed his eyes, "Then why don't you just tell me, what are your conditions?"

Shen Lishu slowly leaned close to her ear and whispered, "What if I say... I want Phoenix City?"

Feng Wu's expression suddenly changed, his face became gloomy and his eyes were full of vigilance.

"Master Shen is a bit too arrogant."

Shen Lishu smiled and said, "I was just kidding you, City Lord, you should think carefully about what conditions you can offer.

I guarantee that you won't be able to get any help from Flower City or Wind City."
