Gao Hu returned to the guard in the front yard in the morning and learned about what had happened while he was away. After Battalion Commander Zhao discovered that Su Bai had quietly left the Confucius Mansion, he called several people from the guard to the battalion headquarters to inquire about Gao Hu's whereabouts.

No one knew where Gao Hu had gone with Su Bai, not even the little guard living in the backyard. This made Captain Zhao very angry. He threatened that when Gao Hu came back, he would withdraw the entire Kong Mansion guard team, including Gao Hu's captain. If the division commander needed it, he would replace them with new personnel to take over the Kong Mansion.

Everyone had been talking to Gao Hu about this matter for the whole morning. It was obvious that no one wanted to leave the Confucius Mansion.

It was not until lunch was served at noon that the people sent by Military Doctor Chen found Gao Hu and realized that Military Doctor Chen had sent people twice before.

After Gao Hu scolded the guards, he went to the backyard.

"What did the person say?" After Su Bai asked, he felt that what he was saying was pure nonsense. What could he do? He must want to get medicine.

Not really. The person who came just came to inquire whether the eldest young lady has returned. If she has, please tell the eldest young lady that Commander Zhou left some things with him before going to the front line, and ask her to send someone to get them when she is free.

Doctor Chen was very good and did a perfect job. Even the person who delivered the message didn't know that he was looking for Su Bai to get medicine.

As long as Su Bai heard these messages that had nothing to do with medicine, he would know what they meant.

"Can I go there?" Gao Hu offered without waiting for Su Bai to speak.

We have more than 80 boxes of medicine at home. Let's give 60 boxes to Doctor Chen first.

This way of taking it is easier to account for, as it is exactly 20 gold bars, and secondly, you can keep some for yourself.

Zi Yan took Gao Hu to get medicine, and Yuan Yuze suddenly asked: "Does the eldest young lady like to eat stinky tofu?"

If Yuan Yuze hadn't mentioned it, Su Bai would have almost forgotten about this matter. Before going to Shanghai, Zi Yan had already asked Yuan Yuze to take care of the stinky tofu business.

He has already bought two large jars of stinky tofu, weighing more than 100 kilograms.

"Can you eat more than 100 kilograms of stinky tofu at once?"

This question stumped Yuan Yuze: "Didn't Zi Yan say we wanted to sell it?"

That's right. If you consume more than 100 kilograms of stinky tofu at home, the whole family will not be able to finish it even if they become smelly. But if you want to sell it, it's not that much at all.

"Get a few pieces for me to try?" Su Bai also liked to eat stinky tofu, but he couldn't eat it in his own living room, so he had to go to the side room.

Yuan Yuze prepared two small plates, each with four or five pieces for everyone to try.

Although they are both stinky tofu, the stinky tofu in the south and the north are different.

In Hunan and Hubei areas, it is fried in oil and eaten with soup or other condiments.

The stinky tofu in the north should be more accurately called stinky fermented bean curd. In fact, there is also stinky fermented bean curd in the south that is not fried, but it is somewhat different from that in the north.

Su Bai suddenly had an idea: would it be more delicious if he poured some chili oil on the fermented bean curd?

Kong Dai immediately brought the chili oil and everyone said it was good.

Su Bai thought this method was feasible. Since he wanted to sell it, he didn't think it was right to buy other people's big jars and then package them into small jars to sell. He had to process them before they could be considered his own products.

The smaller the jar is, the better. Fill the stinky tofu more fully and squeeze it tighter. This way, you won’t need a lot of chili oil in each jar.

"The young lady knows so much!" Everyone praised Su Bai unanimously.

"Okay, Yuze will be fully responsible for this matter. I don't have time to take care of it!"

No matter how much stinky tofu can be sold, even if some money can be made, it is only a small profit compared to the medicine.

After dinner, Su Bai rushed into Li’s house and started to get busy with Niu Yanzi and others.

At dinner time, Gao Hu returned from Linhua and brought back 20 gold bars.

Military Doctor Chen asked Gao Hu to tell Su Bai that he had to contact the source of the goods as soon as possible. It didn't matter if the war broke out, even the large amount of drugs such as Prolancoxib that were previously available in the hospital had to be used sparingly, not to mention penicillin.

Not only these two drugs, but even morphine is completely out of stock.

The provincial government continuously allocates medicine, but the quantity is very small and is used up quickly, which is not enough for daily needs.

Gao Hu said that the Linhua Military Hospital was full of wounded soldiers and the corridors were crowded.

This time, Kong Li's troops suffered heavy casualties. Military Doctor Chen said that the number of casualties was as high as five to six hundred, and the number of casualties due to injuries was in the thousands.

Linhua Military Hospital admitted only the seriously injured, while those with minor injuries were all in the temporary field hospitals built on the front line, which were also overcrowded.

As he spoke, Gao Hu cursed the provincial government, saying that the officials there were good-for-nothings and that they were clearly sending the security guards to their deaths.

"It's all Kong Chen and Kong Li's fault. They are the ones who killed these soldiers!" Su Bai corrected Gao Hu.

The officers behaved improperly and committed many evil deeds, and in the end it was the large number of ordinary soldiers who suffered.

Most of these soldiers came from poor backgrounds.

Thinking of this, Su Bai suddenly had an urge to lower the price of the medicine, so as to prevent more soldiers who have no medicine to use from becoming disabled or even losing their lives due to infection.

However, this impulse subsided immediately.

This is something beyond my ability. I simply cannot produce so much medicine. Even if I can, how can I use it on those ordinary soldiers?

It’s better to put away your saintly heart for the time being.

Gao Hu brought back a lot of news from his trip to Linhua. Captain Zhao of the Longxing Garrison Battalion had sent four companies to the front line. Just today he was injured and was carried back to Linhua Hospital.

According to military doctor Chen, he was only slightly injured and he was admitted to Linhua Military Hospital as arranged by his superiors. According to the wounded in the same ward as Battalion Commander Zhao, after Battalion Commander Zhao had his wounds treated in the hospital, he did not return to the front line but went straight back to Longxing City.

Without asking, one knows that this was Kong Li's arrangement. Rather than saying it was special care for Captain Zhao, his confidant, it was more like he was worried about Long Xingcheng.

Zhou Beiwang also had some news for Doctor Chen to convey. Zhou Beiwang currently did not know that Su Bai had returned to Longxing. He asked Qian Rufei to go back to Linhua to tell Doctor Chen two days ago.

Please tell Doctor Chen immediately if he finds Su Bai has returned.

Captain Zhao has already reported to Kong Li that Su Bai had secretly escaped from the Kong Mansion for many days, and asked Kong Li to replace the Kong Mansion guards. He will personally lead the troops to the Kong Mansion to monitor Su Bai.

Kong Li did not agree to this matter. The main reason might be that Kong Li felt that it was inappropriate to arrange a trusted battalion commander to be the head of the Kong Mansion.

But once the fighting stops, it is almost certain that the current guard will be replaced.

Zhou Beiwang asked Su Bai to be mentally prepared and make arrangements in advance.

"This Zhao guy is extremely bad." Gao Hu told Su Bai about the time when Captain Zhao was the captain of the combat supervision team. Many innocent people died under his gun.

As soon as Gao Hu left the house, Kong Dai slipped in.

He looked outside the door first, then whispered to Su Bai: "Madam, Longxing is empty now, do you want to..."

Su Bai understood. He wanted to go up the mountain to contact Yang Huasen and take advantage of the lack of troops in Longxing City to do something.

This time, Su Bai did not object.
