Traveling through the Republic of China, I married a dead person

Xu Tianyi brought back good news that Zhou Beiwang's letter to that friend had been delivered, and he agreed to it immediately.

He would send a military vehicle to help us deliver the goods to Linhua or Longxing, and, in order to conceal it, he would also load a hundred sets of military cotton-padded clothes on the vehicle to cover our goods.

Once these 100 sets of military cotton-padded jackets leave the warehouse, they cannot be taken back and are given to Su Bai.

Oh my God, there is such a good thing in the world?

Su Bai couldn't believe it.

Yes, there is no free lunch in the world. After Xu Tianyi said this, he told Su Bai that this person wanted five gold bars.

Su Bai knew about the chaotic current situation and the corruption in the government and military, but he didn't expect that it would be related to him so soon.

Xu Tianyi also told Su Bai that Zhou Beiwang had told him before he left that this friend would do things for good reasons, but Su Bai also had to understand that this was not a trivial matter.

"What this means is that after giving him money, I still have to accept his favor, right?" Su Bai nodded after asking. It was indeed true. If it weren't for the relationship with Zhou Beiwang, he wouldn't be able to find the temple gate even with a pig's head in his hand.

Even if you find the temple door, you can't knock on it.

A new problem arose: he only had three gold bars left.

Xu Tianyi told Su Bai another piece of news, which was what Cheng Zifeng had told Su Bai a few days ago, that a war was really about to begin.

In addition to the two divisions sent by Chairman Han of the provincial government and a well-equipped reinforced regiment of the Central Army, Kong Li's security division is also the main force in this campaign to eliminate Marshal Yang.

Kong Li mobilized almost all of his troops and even drew two companies from the garrison battalion in Longxing to the Tianlong front.

Zhou Beiwang's teaching regiment stationed in Linhua, as Kong Li's general reserve force, was about to rush to the front line.

Su Bai felt that he had miscalculated. There were only more than 80 boxes of penicillin left at home, which was not enough when the war started.

It can be turned into gold bars immediately, but I am trapped in Shanghai and lack gold bars.

No matter how I think about it, it feels awkward, as if I have a bowel movement and can't find the toilet.

Just as Su Bai was pacing back and forth in the room like an ant on hot pan, Manager Wan and Zi Yan came back from shopping.

After seeing Xu Tianyi, Manager Wan hurriedly asked how the matter was going. After Xu Tianyi told him the whole process, Manager Wan nodded. He actually thought that it was not easy for someone to do this for us for five gold bars.

"Do you think five gold bars are not too many?" Xu Tianyi asked.

"Not much, really not much." Shopkeeper Wan did the math for Xu Tianyi. Hiring a truck from here to Longxing is about 1200 miles away. Not only is the cost not low, but it is not certain that a truck will be found immediately that is willing to take the business for such a long distance.

Although the cost of transporting it to Jinan by train would be much lower, one still has to hire a car from Jinan to Longxing, which is also 600 miles away.

This is not the main point. The main point is that without the help of this friend, the goods may not be shipped back to Longxing at all. Having the goods seized is a small matter. If the identity of the owner of the goods is traced, even the person will be involved.

He thinks it's worth it.

"The problem is... the young lady only has three gold bars left!" Xu Tianyi blurted out.

When Su Bai left Longxing this time, he took all the dozens of gold bars in his home and only left a few hundred for Kong Dai.

Even if Xu Tianyi was sent back to Longxing again, he would not be able to collect a single gold bar. In that case, he would have to ask Zhou Beiwang for help to borrow money. According to Xu Tianyi, Zhou Beiwang might have already gone to the front line.

At the moment, the only thing he could do was to ask Manager Wan to see if he could help him borrow two gold bars.

But Su Bai felt it was difficult for him to ask Manager Wan for this. Xu Tianyi solved Su Bai's dilemma with his quick words.

The dilemma was solved, but the embarrassment was not.

Fortunately, this embarrassment only lasted a few seconds before it was completely resolved by Shopkeeper Wan: "Madam, although I am incompetent, I can still collect these gold bars for you, tomorrow at the latest!"

Su Bai quickly stood up to express his gratitude, which was a timely help.

"Young Madam, if you say that, you are being distant with me. I am planning to do something big with you next. Wait for my good news. Goodbye!"

After saying this, Shopkeeper Wan turned around and left in a hurry.

Su Bai fell onto the bed and met another noble person.

Zi Yan, Xu Tianyi and others saw Su Bai sitting on the bed in a daze, and they came over to say that the young lady had done good deeds and that she deserved the help of noble people and that she could turn misfortune into fortune.

Su Bai smiled. He really had no ability to manage money. He brought enough money this time, but he didn't expect to spend it all in just a few days in Shanghai.

The next day, after lunch, there was still no news from Manager Wan. This time Zi Yan began to get anxious, and Xu Tianyi was even more anxious as they were still waiting for a reply from Nanjing.

It was Su Bai's turn to comfort them. Although Manager Wan was not a poor man, it was not easy for him to collect these two gold bars. Just wait, she believed in Manager Wan.

It was not until after dinner that Manager Wan came to the restaurant and brought five gold bars to Su Bai.

In addition to all the belongings of him and his son, he borrowed some money from friends to make up the difference.

In this way, Su Bai had eight gold bars.

Five of them were sent to Nanjing by Xu Tianyi to bring back the military vehicle loaded with 100 sets of cotton-padded clothes to load the goods. The other three were planned by Manager Wan for Su Bai. The young lady had her eyes on the cosmetics and stockings business, so she used these three gold bars to purchase some goods and brought them back with the vehicle.

In the past few days, he and Zi Yan have found all the channels. He believes that after returning to Sanlong area, these things will be easy to sell.

But the sales volume will not be very large. Besides the fact that the population in Sanlong area is not large, the main reason is the concept. Not all women can accept these things.

According to Manager Wan's opinion, since the money has already been spent to this extent, we might as well just let go and do it.

After Xu Tianyi took the five gold bars to Nanjing, Su Bai and Manager Wan went to Shanghai with Zi Yan, Adjutant Feng and Gao Hu to purchase goods.

However, before purchasing the goods, she left some money for herself for the return trip.

With the help of Shopkeeper Wan, the matter went very smoothly. Within one day, we bought in some long and short stockings of various colors, lipstick, perfume, nail polish, soap, tooth powder and toothpaste, floral water, hair growth cream, talcum powder and vanishing cream, high heels... but the quantities were not large.

Not long after returning to the hotel, Xu Tianyi came back with the military vehicle loaded with a hundred sets of cotton-padded clothes.
