However, Kong Dai believed that Liu Yiyan's arrangement this time was much better than letting Tietou be the contact person.

Tietou was a thug in Zuihuayuan and always asked Zi Yan to find him, which was too conspicuous and easily attracted other people's attention.

Now that a girl has been arranged as an insider and a man has been sent to favor Xiao Chunhong, it is the most natural thing and will not easily arouse suspicion.

Besides, Kong Li had just caught Tietou, a suspect, from Zuihuayuan. Normally, he would not have thought that there were other people with suspicious identities in Zuihuayuan.

"I think the purpose of Kong Li's arrest of Zi Yan and Tietou last time was to find out whether you have any relationship with the people on the mountain." Kong Dai said.

This is certain. Su Bai believes that even if Kong Li knows that Tietou is a subordinate of the escaped bandit leader Liu Yiyan, Kong Li does not take Liu Yiyan's remnant bandits seriously at all. He still wants to find something to hold against him.

Kong Dai thought that in the future, he should designate one person to go find Xiao Chunhong. If it was discovered that more than one of Su Bai's men went to find Xiao Chunhong, it would cause trouble.

As he said this, he looked at Xu Tianyi who was squatting nearby.

Xu Tianyi stood up immediately: "Why are you looking at me? Do I look like someone who hangs out in brothels all day? I haven't even got married yet!"

Kong Dai said he looked like one, and it was obvious at first glance that this man was a playboy.

Xu Tianyi said Kong Dai was more suitable. Everyone knew that he was an old bachelor, so it was most reasonable for him to visit a brothel.

Moreover, he had been the chief steward of the Confucius Mansion for so many years, and his salary was several times higher than that of ordinary servants. He was not a rich man but he was not short of money, and he could afford to visit brothels every day.

"You guys say this in front of me, okay?" Su Bai laughed so hard that his stomach hurt.

In fact, after Xu Tianyi said this, Su Bai also felt that Kong Dai was more suitable. After all, Xu Tianyi was a grown man and a servant in the backyard of the Kong Mansion. It was a bit inappropriate for him to go to the brothel for no reason.

"Don't argue about this. Anyway, we haven't been in contact with Liu Yiyan recently. Let's talk about it later."

Unconsciously, Yang Huasen, Liu Yiyan, Zhou Beiwang... these people who have direct or indirect relationships with Su Bai no longer have many secrets among the people in the backyard.

Su Bai's original plan to go to Dongyuan to lure out and determine the residence of the two followers was suspended. The widening of the cave could not be delayed either, so Adjutant Feng and Gao Erzhu were mobilized, so there was no one to do this job.

At first, I only thought of crawling through the hole in the ground, but after measuring the size of the equipment, I found that it had to be slightly widened to be sufficient.

The second lady, Kong Yun, would come to the backyard almost every day and pester Su Bai to chat for a long time, making it impossible for Su Bai to get away.

It was not until the third day that Su Bai found a good idea. He gave her a few dollars and asked her and Kong Man to go to the street to buy delicious food and clothes they liked, and he would soon be able to trick her away.

Fortunately, I have a high income from medicine, otherwise it would cost a lot to fool her.

The second batch of drugs produced was not ideal, with an output even lower than the first batch, less than 60 boxes.

Su Bai asked Gao Hu to go to Linhua and deliver the medicine to Zhou Beiwang.

She felt that it would be better not to contact Doctor Chen directly, and it would be more appropriate to have Zhou Beiwang transfer the matter.

Su Bai told Gao Hu to go to Tianlong after Linhua, and to report the situation here to Kong Li.

Gao Hu could ride to Linhua on horseback quickly, and more importantly, no one would follow him.

Su Bai found that his current situation was a bit like that of an underground worker.

I have to say that Kong Dai is a very careful person. The original Li Mansion had no back door, so he asked someone to build a small door. He suspected that the people who were monitoring Su Bai would keep a close eye on the back door of the Kong Mansion. The entire alley behind the Kong Mansion was unsafe, so the people in the Li Mansion would go through the back door in the future. There should be no one monitoring that alley.

After hearing what Kong Dai said, Su Bai suddenly woke up. Yes, he should sneak into Li's Mansion first and then go out through the back door. Does he need to go to so much trouble to find out who the two people who are monitoring him are?

Gao Hu came back a day later. As soon as he came back, he excitedly went into Su Bai's main hall and told Su Bai that what the young lady said was right. Mrs. Jiang really went to Xi'an with Mr. Song Mouwen.

This is today's news.

Also, Chairman Han sent a telegram to Generals Zhang and Yang yesterday. Although it was sent in coded form, the message still leaked.

He praised the actions of Generals Zhang and Yang as "a wise and heroic act" and said that his army would be ordered to march westward, and that if the two armies met, there should be no misunderstanding.

"Madam, this is... too amazing, isn't it?" Gao Hu exclaimed in amazement.

"What day is today?" Su Bai asked.

Gao Hu replied: "December 12."

"It should be soon." Su Bai murmured.

"What's so fast?"

Su Bai couldn't remember the exact time, but probably within two or three days, the negotiations in Xi'an would have a result.

"You really don't want to fight anymore?" Gao Hu still didn't quite believe it.

"Tell me about Military Doctor Chen. Did he say how much medicine he would need next time?" For Su Bai, this was serious business, a big deal. The situation in Xi'an was too big, and it was useless for a common man like him to worry about it.

Gao Hu told Su Bai a disappointing news. Military Doctor Chen said that the more medicines there were in the next batch, the better, but they had to wait until the war started and the existing medicines were used up before they could get the new ones. He did not have that many gold bars and could not afford to hold back the goods.

It’s over. Sales just started to slow down a bit and then they stopped.

The war is definitely not going to start, so you can’t sell your own medicine?

Su Bai found himself being a little unkind. He was actually looking forward to a war just to sell medicine?

However, we have to fight even if we don't want to. It's only more than half a year before the real big war begins.

No matter how poorly Su Bai studied history, he still remembered that the Marco Polo Bridge Incident took place on July 1937, 7, a day that every Chinese person will never forget.

Six and a half months from now, to be exact.

How could he escape from Kong Li's clutches within these six and a half months?

If he wanted to escape alone, it would not be difficult to follow Kong Dai's method and go out through the back door of Li's mansion.

At this moment, Su Bai felt that he was no longer alone, and he suddenly had many more concerns.

Zi Yan, Xu Tianyi, Kong Dai, the second lady Kong Yun, and of course Zhou Beiwang, and perhaps, that annoying Liu Yiyan, and Yang Huasen, whom he had never met but always claimed to obey his orders.

There may also be Gao Hu and Miss Kong Man...

I don't have the ability to take them all away. Besides, they may not follow me. But one thing is certain: most of them don't want me to leave them.

Even if he had dozens of gold bars, there would be no problem with the funds to set up a new pharmaceutical workshop, but starting over would take time and require help.

Nothing big can be accomplished easily.

Su Bai decided to go to Shanghai first and consider these issues after coming back. There was still time.

But she still believed that she had to find the people who were following her first. Only by determining their hiding place could she truly bring them into the light and keep herself in the dark.

After arriving at the Kong Mansion, there were too many accidents and coincidences. Su Bai couldn't guarantee that he would not be discovered if he went out from the back door of the Li Mansion.

When Gao Hu and Adjutant Feng were called in to discuss the matter again, Adjutant Feng told Su Bai that he had seriously discussed the matter with Kong Dai and Gao Erzhu while they were repairing the tunnel over the past few days.

As long as the young lady goes to East Garden again, and if these two people follow her again, he is 90% sure that he can find their residence.
