<h4>Chapter 633: City Construction (4)</h4>


    Shen Yanxiao was speechless. She had always been surrounded by men who were neglectful of minor points of conduct. However, Yin Jiuchen, an affectionately sweet girl, was apanying her. Shen Yanxiao was not used to that.


    Girls were thoughtful and considerate, especially when they were with people that they cared about. However, Shen Yanxiao had be ustomed to her ways. She was not a delicate flower in a greenhouse, but a pine that could survive harsh winters.


    Yin Jiuchen exercised great care as she tidied Shen Yanxiao’s clothes and lowered her head. “Lady Shen, you have saved us. We should repay your kindness. Those are our jobs. If you go on like this, what does that make us?”


    Yin Jiuchen, Su He, and the three thousand ves were all from the Scar of Oblivion. They were familiar with each other. Yin Jiuchen knew that the ves appreciated what Shen Yanxiao had done for them. They had no other way to repay her kindness other than to work hard to aplish the tasks that Shen Yanxiao had assigned to them. It was only then they would feel as if they deserved the gold coins, clothes, and food they received.


    Yin Jiuchen was determined. Shen Yanxiao looked at her and then turned to Du Lang who stood at the side.


    Du Lang chuckled. “Just let Xiao Jiu have some peace of mind. You are quite mysterious regarding your whereabouts. You don’t know this, but that scared the girl. She would sleep by your side in case you disappear into the night again.”


    Shen Yanxiao sighed. They were about the same age, and yet, somehow,pared to the gentle and mind Yin Jiuchen, Shen Yanxiao felt as if she was as casual and mighty as a man.


    Was she secretly an irondy?


    “I will try.” Shen Yanxiao had no other choice. She could yell and scold men like Du Lang, but she did not have the heart to throw vicious remarks at the girl.


    Another team of miners was back. Su He, who carried a hoe on his shoulder, saw how Shen Yanxiao stood speechlessly and Yin Jiuchen, who rushed to and fro around Shen Yanxiao just as he stepped into the city. Heughed at the scene that had been repeating itself during thest couple of days.


    “City master, is Xiao Jiu bugging you again?” Su He was a direct man.


    Shen Yanxiao forced a smile. With Yin Jiuchen there, she could no longer fumble through the mineral products with her hands. She could only stand there and look at the dark stones with her eyes.


    She had nned to use obsidians to build the city wall. She could stay calm even if someone were to st the city wall with bombs.


    It was a remarkable decision. If someone wanted to use obsidians to build a city wall in any other ce in the world, others would call that person a madman.


    However, Shen Yanxiao was standing onnd that had the most abundant reserves of obsidians. She could do what others would not even dare to consider.


    “Su He, how is it going today?” Shen Yanxiao asked. It had been more than half a month since she assigned people for mining. Half of the city walls had been constructed during that time. That rapid speed was attributable to the ves. To show their thanks for Shen Yanxiao’s kindness, the ves worked their tails off night and day. On many asions, Shen Yanxiao had to go around the city in the middle of the night to tell the men to rest.


    Su He replied, “The mine that we are in charge of is quite small. So, the output of the mineral products is rather meager too. I n to bring some people with me and go check out the other mines.”
