"Well..." Chen Yidao looked at Cheng Zifeng and said, "Could County Mayor Cheng please step aside?"

Su Bai didn't expect Chen Yidao to be so blunt and ask Cheng Zifeng to avoid him. Cheng Zifeng didn't care at all and laughed twice: "I haven't finished talking to the Sixth Madam yet. You guys can chat here. The Sixth Madam and I will chat in the yard."

Su Bai was completely confused. What could Cheng Zifeng and the Sixth Concubine have to talk about?

Also, no matter how skilled Chen Yidao was, he was just a doctor. How could he drive out the head of a county with just one sentence?

As soon as Cheng Zifeng left, Chen Yidao told him the truth that he came for Su Bai's No. 1 medicine.

But Zhou Beiwang had told him not to tell anyone about the No. 1 medicine, so he asked County Magistrate Cheng to stay away.

Don't worry about County Magistrate Cheng, they are old friends who can talk about anything.

Su Bai then remembered that Cheng Zifeng was the county magistrate of Linhua County before coming to Longxing. The difference was that that county magistrate was appointed by the Kong family, while the current county magistrate was appointed by the provincial government.

"Even if we tell each other everything, he can't know about this." Chen Yidao said in a low voice.

"really?"

"I swear I didn't even tell my wife."

Zhou Beiwang told Chen Yidao that once the secret was leaked, Chen Yidao would never be able to get a dose of medicine again.

Chen Yidao also brought Su Bai good news. Through his experiments, he found that if the infection is not serious, two intramuscular injections are enough, especially on the day after the operation. First, five injections should be given intravenously, and then two injections should be given intramuscularly. This should be done twice a day and it is foolproof.

Chen Yidao said to Su Bai with great regret that now he thought about it, Su Bai used ten cigarettes at a time for Yuan Yuze, twenty cigarettes a day, which was such a waste and he felt so sorry for it.

"It's no use looking for me. There is no medicine now. It will take at least half a month or twenty days to get it. It may not be available yet. You know this medicine is not obtained through normal channels."

Chen Yidao believed Su Bai's lies without a doubt. Knowing the situation, he was not in a hurry to take the medicine away. He wanted Su Bai to consider giving him a portion after he had a source of supply.

"40 units per stick, sticks per box, one yellow croaker for three boxes, can you afford it?"

"Didn't you tell Captain Zhou that three small yellow croakers cost ten pieces? The price has gone up?"

One big yellow croaker was exchanged for ten small yellow croakers. According to the price told to Zhou Beiwang before, three boxes would require nine small yellow croakers. This time the price had indeed increased to ten.

Su Bai thought so. In the few months since he came here, these warlord troops have not done a single good thing, and it can even be said that they have not done anything good at all.

As a doctor in the warlord hospital, Chen Yidao bought medicine for these bad guys, so it would be a waste if he didn't make money from them.

Su Bai just smiled in response to Chen Yidao's counteroffer.

He agreed immediately and asked for 1000 pieces at this price first.

Wow, that’s more than 30 gold bars, which can be exchanged for more than US dollars. This money comes too easily, right?

But Su Bai knew that with his current production capacity, he couldn't produce so much at once.

I could only reply to him that it was impossible to have so much goods and we could only take what we could get.

If you want so much, you have to save it in batches.

"Okay," Chen Yidao agreed, "Madam, please take the trouble to urge us to do so."

Only then did he tell Su Bai that the fifty cigarettes that Su Bai had taken last time had been basically used up.

This time, Kong Li sent troops into the mountains to attack Yang Huasen. The wounded were continuously sent to Linhua Military Hospital. If they were all given No. 1 medicine, it would be far from enough.

Only seriously injured people and officials can use medicine No. 1.

He told Su Bai that the reason why he dared to agree to the expensive price of thirty large yellow croakers was because the officers in the army were rich. As long as they were injured, he could squeeze one large yellow croaker out of them in each box.

Wow, this price is the same as the black market price in the late World War II.

"Chen Yidao," Su Bai said bluntly after hearing this: "You used my medicine to make dirty money, where is your medical ethics?"

"Madam, let me explain."

After Chen Yidao's explanation, Su Bai had a better impression of him. This man was full of compassion and sense of justice.

Chen Yidao said that most of these officials' money came from illegal sources and was easy to come by, but ordinary soldiers could not afford such expensive medicine. He was prepared to cheat the officials of their money so that ordinary seriously injured soldiers could use medicine.

"Don't you get funding from above to buy medicine for your military hospital?"

Yes, the funds were allocated from above, but the label of Su Bai's No. 1 medicine was handwritten, so it was impossible to claim the money.

"I think the next batch of medicine won't be like this, right?" Su Bai set an ambush.

Chen Yidao said that would be the best, as this way they could apply for funding from above with good reason.

"Get me some medicine," Su Bai remembered that he had undergone three operations here without any anesthetic.

"Please tell me, Madam. I can do it." Chen Yidao agreed very readily.

"Procaine, morphine."

Chen Yidao agreed immediately. Procaine was no problem, but morphine was a little difficult to get, and even if he could get it, there wouldn't be much.

"What's the price? Tell me." Su Bai was afraid that he would ask for an exorbitant price, so he had to agree on the price first.

"I'm giving ten boxes of procaine to the eldest young lady. As for morphine, I can only do my best." Chen Yidao was quite generous.

Su Bai knew very well that now was a relatively calm period before the war. When war broke out everywhere next year, these medicines would immediately become in short supply.

With the production capacity of my small workshop, it is impossible for me to produce all the medicines I need by myself, especially procaine used for local anesthesia. Although it is not expensive, the raw materials for its production are produced in South America. Even if I want to produce it myself, it is difficult to get the raw materials.

She planned to sell the next batch of penicillin to Chen Yidao and then start hoarding procaine in large quantities.

As for morphine, Chen Yidao said it didn't matter if it was difficult to make, because this thing was extracted from opium. Originally, the Kong Mansion had opium dens in several counties. Although they were handed over to Kong Chen and Kong Li, it was not difficult for him to buy some back as raw materials.

"Then it's settled. I'll send someone to deliver procaine to the eldest young lady tomorrow."

After the two finished talking about their private matters, they invited Cheng Zifeng back. Su Bai apologized to him, but Cheng Zifeng said the same thing as Chen Yidao, saying that it was common for them to kick and punch each other before, so Su Bai didn't need to take it to heart at all.

"Su Bai has something he doesn't understand, and would like to ask County Magistrate Cheng for advice."

"Young Madam, please speak."

Kong Chen caused a big commotion in the county government a while ago and kidnapped the special commissioner and the county magistrate. The provincial government had just downgraded the Temporary Seventh Army to the Temporary Seventh Division, and Kong Chen had also been removed from his post. Why was Kong Li so bold this time and killing people at will?

Cheng Zifeng's explanation surprised Su Bai. This time the action was reported to the provincial government by Kong Li, which was to capture the spies left in Longxing City by Yang Huasen's rebels. A telegram approving the action was sent. To be precise, although this action was carried out by Kong Li's men, it was under the banner of a joint action of the Longxing County Government and the 7th Temporary Division.

Therefore, this is in compliance with the law.

"Killing more than seventy innocent people is legal?"

"Oh!" Cheng Zifeng sighed and advised Su Bai not to be angry about this matter. This kind of thing has happened many times before. No matter what, Kong Li reported the case and obtained approval before killing people.

"Everything has to be done slowly, there's no rush!"

It can be seen that Cheng Zifeng has no other choice.

This Kong Li is really insidious.

The three of them chatted until dinner time. Su Bai wanted to keep the two of them for dinner, but they declined.

After returning to the backyard and having dinner, Su Bai arranged the next batch of medicine for Zi Yan. The first batch of strains could already enter the cultivation stage.

She asked Zi Yan to call Niu Yanzi to help tomorrow, and for the others to remain silent for the time being. The Kong Mansion was in a special period of time, and they could not do anything big that would arouse other people's suspicion.

While the two were talking, Zi Yan, who had sharp ears, heard someone knocking on the back door.

Su Bai and Zi Yan came to the yard and sure enough, someone was knocking on the door.

"Who?" Zi Yan asked in a low voice.

"It's me, open the door!"

It’s the second lady!

Why did this little ancestor come back?
