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

The second young master's words, whether you acknowledge him or not, they are all descendants of the Kong family, immediately made the situation awkward.

"Ah..." Kong Li hummed and nodded to break the awkwardness. This time, Captain Zhao and Gao Hu defended the Kong Mansion and fought bloody battles with the rebels and made great contributions. Gao Hu has been promoted to deputy company commander of the first company and concurrently served as platoon leader of the first platoon.

At the same time, the county government has reported to the provincial government for commendation for Captain Bai Ying's coverage of the county government's safe retreat. The province has given a commendation order and money, and the security division has decided to reinstate Bai Ying's position as captain of the first company.

The Security Division, which had suffered heavy losses in this battle, had been reorganized into three regiments. The original teaching regiment was changed to a regiment, with Zhou Beiwang as its commander.

Su Bai smiled in his heart. There were only more than a thousand defeated soldiers, and they were organized into three regiments, with three or four hundred people in each regiment?

It's just like children playing house.

"Niece-in-law, you must have heard something about the security officer's current situation. To be honest, I came here to ask for a favor."

What tricks are you going to play?

"Please speak, Master Kong." Su Bai responded expressionlessly.

Kong Li said that he had heard that after Su Bai took over the Kong Mansion again, the family lived a good life, had meat to eat every day, and the wives' monthly allowances were also increased. It seemed that Su Bai's business was doing well.

After this battle, nearly 10,000 security guards were killed or disabled, and the pension was an unaffordable amount of money.

At present, although the provincial government has allocated some funds, the amount is insufficient and most of the funds have to be raised by the security guards themselves.

In the following days, the security guard had to tighten his belt and live a hard life.

"Commander Kong, you don't want me to donate money, do you? Then let me ask you, if I can afford to donate money to the army, do I need to shamelessly sell stinky tofu?" Su Bai pointed at the two wing rooms and said, "I just invited you to come in and take a look, but you all complained that the smell was not good. Do you know that we have to go in and out here countless times every day? Do you know that if there is a westerly wind, my yard will be filled with this smell?"

"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious." Kong Li's attitude was surprisingly good: "How can I ask you to donate money? The wives of the various rooms are my sisters-in-law after all. You just let them eat good meals for a few days. Of course I can't do this!"

"That……"

"Can you help me pay for some of my food expenses?" Kong Li asked with a smile.

“Food expenses… aren’t they money?”

"No, no, no, just food."

Kong Li told Su Bai that Gao Hu's team was still stationed at the Kong Mansion as before. Although they were no longer the Kong Mansion's guards in name, they still had the responsibility to defend the Kong Mansion.

In addition to the first row, he wanted to send the second row to the Confucius Mansion as well.

At the same time, the garrison battalion’s headquarters will also be located in the Confucius Mansion, and it is said that this was arranged by Battalion Commander Zhao during his lifetime.

Su Bai only needs to be responsible for the meals of those living in Confucius Mansion. He doesn't ask for good food, just for fullness.

Shameless!

Su Bai cursed Kong Li in his heart and asked, "How many people are in the first row, and how many people are in the second row?"

There are a total of 20 people in a row, including Gao Hu.

Gao Hu’s previous judgment was correct, and he didn’t provide him with any reinforcements.

There are more than 20 people in the second platoon, plus people from the battalion headquarters, about 30 people in total.

"Food for 50 people?" Su Bai refused directly: "You might as well strangle all the orphans and widows in this courtyard with ropes."

What Su Bai didn't expect was that Kong Li quickly made concessions. He proposed that Su Bai be responsible for the meals of the 20 people in Gao Hu's row.

"Gao Hu led his men back to the Kong Mansion. 36 of the 17 men were killed. You don't have to pay for their pensions, but it's not too much for you to provide them with food for a few months, right?"

"Well, then I and the wives in each room will have to tighten our belts." Su Bai agreed.

Su Bai no longer had to take care of the meals for the second platoon and the battalion headquarters, but he still had to arrange their accommodation. There were so many empty houses in the Confucius Mansion now, and having more people living there would bring more popularity, and more popularity would bring better fortune.

"Okay, then let's arrange them in the west front yard. Platoon Leader Gao's platoon will still live in their original west wing of the front yard." Su Bai had no choice but to agree. Kong Li must have his reasons for arranging dozens of people to live here. If he insisted on refusing, the two sides would definitely fall out.

In that case, Kong Li would no longer be reasonable.

"Okay, then we won't bother you anymore!" It was rare for Kong Li to act like a human being today, and he didn't act tough from beginning to end.

He is polite, so we cannot be impolite. Su Bai escorted them to the front yard.

The second young master, Kong Nanwei, kept nodding and bowing as he escorted them out of the Kong Mansion.

There was nothing that Gao Hu needed to arrange here. He still lived in the original house and used the original kitchen.

But the house in the west front yard had to be cleaned up, after all, the person who was going to live there was his immediate superior, so Gao Hu immediately ordered his men to help clean up first.

"Who is the new battalion commander? Do you know him before?" Su Bai asked Gao Hu.

"I don't know him." Gao Hu only knew that the new battalion commander's surname was Tian, ​​and he didn't even know which regiment he was in before.

Gao Hu laughed as he spoke. The current garrison battalion actually only had one company, the First Company. The three platoons in the company had only 80-plus people in total, which was less than the number of people in the police station.

After the reorganization, Zhou Beiwang's regiment was the strongest in the security division, accounting for nearly half of the division's troops.

Gao Hu also told Su Bai that the Longxing garrison battalion also belonged to Zhou Beiwang's regiment, but the regiment's headquarters was in Linhua.

Su Bai and Gao Hu chatted for a while and just returned to the backyard, before they even sat down, Gao Hu came running to report that the new captain Tian had arrived and he wanted to meet the eldest young lady.

But he said it very politely. If the eldest young lady was not convenient, they could meet again another day. Anyway, they would live in the same yard and there would be plenty of opportunities.

"Okay, I'll go meet Captain Tian." Since the other party proposed to visit him, Su Bai felt that there was no need for him to put on airs. He was right, they would have to live in the same courtyard and get along with each other in the future.

Su Bai brought Xu Tianyi to the front yard lobby, where Captain Tian was already waiting at the steps in front of the hall.

Captain Tian was thin and wore a brand new major's uniform. Unlike the gray-blue uniforms worn by Gao Hu and the others, his uniform was khaki.

When Captain Tian saw Gao Hu bringing Su Bai out, he immediately gave Su Bai a standard military salute: "Gangster Battalion Tian Mancang greets the eldest young lady!"

"No need to be so polite, please come in, Captain Tian." Su Bai invited Tian Mancang into the lobby, and the task of making tea and pouring water had to be left to Xu Tianyi.

However, this time, when Guo Deyi saw Xu Tianyi going to the kitchen to fetch water, he sent a cook over to temporarily serve as a maid.

"This time, Tian has been ordered to set up the camp headquarters in the Confucius Mansion. This will definitely cause a lot of trouble for the eldest young lady in the future. If there is anything that my men and I have done wrong, please feel free to correct us at any time. We will definitely obey the rules of the Confucius Mansion."

What followed was a bunch of insincere pleasantries, but Su Bai had a good impression of Captain Tian. He was polite and knew the rules, unlike the damn Captain Zhao before.

But damn, he's really dead.

Captain Tian said goodbye, and the people from the second platoon and the battalion headquarters also moved the luggage and sundries from outside the Confucius Mansion into the inside with the help of the first row of soldiers. Su Bai discovered that a small number of people in the second platoon were wearing casual clothes and did not even have military uniforms.

Gao Hu explained that they had to change their uniforms to khaki uniforms. The one Captain Tian was wearing was the new uniform, and they would have to change into new ones in a few days.

"Oh, you scared me. I thought this Captain Tian was sent by the Central Army."

"They are not the central army, they are sent by Kong Li." Xu Tianyi whispered aside.

"Do I need you to tell me that?" Su Bai didn't even turn his head.

Xu Tianyi remained silent.

After returning to the backyard, Xu Tianyi told Su Bai that this Captain Tian... was the little leader who was responsible for monitoring us in the small courtyard next to Li's Mansion!
