It was indeed the Second Wife who told Kong Li that the master's last message was just the word "Dong" instead of "Dongyuan", but she did not tell Kong Li about her analysis of Dongtian Temple. It should have been Kong Li's own analysis.

In fact, it is not difficult for people who know Master Kong to analyze this point. Most people in the Confucius Mansion know the relationship between the master and Abbot Huijing of Dongtian Temple.

It is easy to think of Dongtian Temple.

"You should have a good rest. If you need anything, just ask Yunyun to find Miss Wan."

Su Bai and Wan Qili came out, and Kong Yun, who was standing outside, went into the house.

Back in the main hall, Wan Qili gave Su Bai an idea. It was not difficult to find out about the situation in Dongtian Temple. Just catch a tongue and ask.

There are at least 50 to 60 real and fake monks in Dongtian Temple. The daily food and drink for so many people is not a small number. If the food can be stored in advance for several months or even longer, they cannot live without vegetables, so someone has to come out to buy them.

Even if you don’t buy it every day, you should buy it once every three to five days, right?

Dongtian Temple is located in a valley, surrounded by mountains. By sending someone to climb a small mountain, they can monitor the monks' comings and goings at any time.

When they come out of the mountain, catch one.

"We have the people and guns we need. Isn't this a simple matter?"

Su Bai looked at Wan Qili and said, "Lili, I just think you are extraordinary. You can even come up with an idea like kidnapping."

"Hahaha, sis, useful ideas are good ideas!"

Su Bai had never thought about this, but after Wan Qili mentioned it, he felt that it was indeed a good idea.

Of course, this matter should be left to Xu Tianyi.

Su Bai called Xu Tianyi and Xiao Wei over, and they quickly came up with a plan. They didn't need many people, just send one person to ambush on the small hill east of Dongtian Temple every day. They didn't take action yet, but waited a few days to observe.

……

As if Zhou Beiwang had calculated the time accurately, he arrived early in the morning on the day when Su Bai's seventh batch of penicillin was to be filled.

Su Bai directly let him into the backyard and told him that he was early.

"The medicine won't arrive until tonight." She didn't tell him that the medicine was still being bottled and labeled on the mountain.

In recent days, Su Bai has thought more than once whether to pull back the equipment from Cave No. 1. It would be very troublesome to go up and down the mountain. However, Wan Qili made the decision for her. Since they had moved the equipment up, they should not come back for the time being unless they killed Kong Li.

"Well, since Commander Kong and I have agreed to go to Qingdao tomorrow, I'll let Bai Ying come get the medicine. She will definitely get it tomorrow, right?"

"you do not believe me?"

"How could that be possible? I trust you more than I trust myself." Zhou Beiwang said in a low voice.

It's getting more and more explicit.

"Stop being cheesy. Four packs of penicillin. Do you want them all?"

"If you don't keep any for yourself, take them all."

The small amount of each batch produced by Su Bai is enough for his own use. He currently has several large boxes, each box containing fifty sticks.

Zhou Beiwang lifted the two small suitcases in his hands with both hands and placed them on the table. They looked very heavy.

When I opened it, it was a gold bar!

"There are so many. Where did they come from?" Su Bai couldn't wait to count them.

"Look at how greedy you are, 150 sticks!"

According to the price we agreed on before, one piece of penicillin costs 30 pieces, and four pieces costs 120 pieces.

One erythromycin stick contains two bottles, 30 sticks require 60 bottles.

"How's it going? Did Doctor Chen try erythromycin?"

Zhou Beiwang nodded repeatedly. Bi Yuming cured his injury by taking erythromycin. Doctor Chen said that the effect was very good.

Zhou Beiwang told Su Bai that Kong Li asked him to buy penicillin, and that Doctor Chen bought erythromycin with money he raised from somewhere.

One thing Su Bai couldn't understand was that she didn't believe Kong Li would spend so much money to treat his men's injuries. She asked Zhou Beiwang to be careful. She always felt that Kong Li would definitely send someone to follow him, and maybe he had already done so, but Zhou Beiwang just didn't notice.

Zhou Beiwang laughed again and said that this was not the first time Su Bai had instructed him like this. He was very careful every time. It was no exaggeration to say that he was extremely careful. Even if Kong Li sent someone to monitor him, there would be no result.

Zhou Beiwang pointed at the gold bars and said, "Have you finished counting? If there is no problem, where do you want to put it? I will help you carry it over. You can't carry it."

"I can't lift it?" Su Bai closed the suitcase unconvinced and tried to lift it. It was indeed very heavy. She could lift it, but it was difficult for her to walk a few more steps.

Zhou Beiwang told Su Bai that a large yellow croaker weighs ten taels, and 150 yellow croakers are packed into two boxes, with 75 in each box.

"75 kilograms?" Su Bai exclaimed. No wonder he couldn't lift it.

Oh, it's embarrassing right away.

Nowadays, one pound of gold is sixteen taels, not ten taels.

Wan Qili told Su Bai that a large yellow croaker weighs more than 310 grams, or more than six taels, and each box weighs less than 50 kilograms.

Su Bai gave the erythromycin to Zhou Beiwang first. Erythromycin was made and pressed into tablets in the backyard of Li's mansion.

Zhou Beiwang answered Su Bai's question about why Kong Li was willing to spend so much money to buy penicillin.

After penicillin entered the Linhua Military Hospital, it was not something that could be used by anyone by doctors like Military Doctor Chen. According to Kong Li's instructions, the hospital director used penicillin as a life-saving drug, and ordinary soldiers had no chance of using it.

"Is it only for wealthy officers?" Wan Qili asked from the side.

"Only officers above the mid-level can afford it. Rich families can also use it if they have a headache, fever, or sore throat as long as they are willing to spend money."

"Beast!" Su Bai cursed. He used such good medicine to treat a sore throat?

This explains why Kong Li took the medicine back and then peeled off another layer of skin!

His own medicine became another channel for him to make money.

As for how much the dean helped Kong Li sell it for, Zhou Beiwang didn't know. Even Doctor Chen wasn't quite sure, he just knew it was very expensive.

"My medicine is still too cheap!" Su Bai said angrily.

"Is this still cheap?" Zhou Beiwang asked in surprise.

Of course it was cheap. According to the market conditions Su Bai knew, in the mid-to-late 40s, the black market price of a box of 40 penicillin units, , was the same as a large yellow croaker, and it was not easy to buy.

If calculated based on this price, the price of one piece of penicillin should be 100 gold bars.

Only 30 pieces are sold now, which is less than one-third of the price.

It would be fine if it was really used to treat the wounded, and Su Bai would be willing to sell it even at a lower price. But it was awkward to let Kong Li use his medicine to squeeze money from others.

"No!" Su Bai thought again of Kong Li's plan to monitor Zhou Beiwang. Kong Li would definitely do this.

Since he made money from penicillin, he must want to make more money.

With such a high purchase price, he would even suspect that Zhou Beiwang had made huge profits from it, and he would definitely find a way to find the purchase channel.

Zhou Beiwang told Su Bai not to worry and also told him a good news. Kong Li was not going to keep all four bottles of penicillin in Linhua Military Hospital. He heard from a friend in the division headquarters that Kong Li was planning to give one bottle of medicine to please the provincial government.

"If the provincial government uses it, won't it make your medicine famous? Is that a good thing?"

"It's a good thing," Su Bai nodded. "However, after this, I will only give my medicine to Doctor Chen, and I won't give Kong Li half a bottle."
