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

Kong Dai immediately went to Zuihuayuan to find Xiao Chunhong again, and Xu Tianyi made fun of him again. Now, probably everyone in Longxing City knew that the frivolous old housekeeper of the Kong family could visit Zuihuayuan several times a day.

"What a wonderful story!" Xu Tianyi said proudly.

"Shut up!" Su Bai glared at him.

After lunch, Su Bai took a short nap. When he got up and was about to ask Wan Qili to go to Li Mansion to see how much food Xiao Wei and the others had bought and how much more they could buy in the afternoon, Xu Tianyi told Su Bai that Wan Qili had gone out of the front door of Confucius Mansion.

She didn't say what she was going to do, just that she would be back in a while.

The time she was talking about was quite long, and she didn't come back until dinner time.

It turned out that she went to Linhua Military Hospital and tricked Zhou Beiwang into telling the truth. The person who attacked Zhou Beiwang was none other than Kong Dai!

"How can you get the truth from him?" Su Bai asked.

To tell the truth with lies.

Wan Qili rushed to Linhua Military Hospital and told Zhou Beiwang a false news, saying that Su Bai had always suspected that Kong Dai had attacked him. Although Zhou Beiwang did not admit it, Su Bai did not believe him either.

After returning to the Kong Mansion, Su Bai directly called Kong Dai to ask, and Kong Dai admitted that he was the one who shot Zhou Beiwang.

Wan Qili told Zhou Beiwang that since he did not tell Su Bai the truth in the morning, Su Bai was very angry and it was very likely that he would not come back after going to Shanghai this time.

Zhou Beiwang was so anxious that he almost got off the bed.

Afterwards, I told him everything honestly.

He and Kong Dai did come back on the same bus. There were so many people on the bus, it was so crowded that it was hard to find a place to stand.

Zhou Beiwang and Kong Dai both had seats, but Zhou Beiwang sat at the front of the car, behind the driver, while Kong Dai sat in the back seat.

According to Zhou Beiwang, it should be Kong Dai who saw him first. He covered most of his face when getting on the car, but Zhou Beiwang still recognized him.

Seeing that he didn't want to come over to say hello, Zhou Bei pretended not to see him.

He closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep all the way back to Linhua. In order to avoid meeting Kong Dai, Zhou Beiwang got out of the car first. He didn't expect Kong Dai to shoot him from behind.

The moment he fell, he turned around and saw Kongdai, even though he still had most of his face covered with a scarf.

Zhou Beiwang also asked Wan Qili to come back and explain to Su Bai that the reason he lied to Su Bai was because he didn't want Su Bai to be entangled.

After all, Kong Dai is a capable helper to Su Bai.

He planned to pretend to be confused and be careful when he had the chance to meet Kong Dai again.

"You understand what Captain Zhou means. He knows how important Kong Dai is to you." Wan Qili emphasized.

Su Bai immediately fell into deep conflict.

Should we kill Kong Dai?

If Zhou Beiwang was beaten to death by him, there is no doubt that he deserved to be killed.

But now, Zhou Beiwang is not dead.

The fact that a person is not dead does not mean that he should not be killed. However, if he is really killed, many things will be involved. The eldest and second daughters treat him as an elder and a relative, and it is difficult to predict how they will react.

If you think from Kong Dai's perspective, he must be very sad and aggrieved.

Because in his opinion, he was loyal to Su Bai.

After thinking about it for several rounds, Su Bai came to a new conclusion about Kong Dai. He was hateful, but he did not deserve to die.

Zhou Beiwang's analysis was correct. Although Kong Dai was hiding some things from him, he had to admit that he was a very important helper to him.

He had done so much for himself.

"Don't let Xu Tianyi know about this." Su Bai instructed Wan Qili.

Xu Tianyi is Zhou Beiwang's confidant. Once he knows that it was Kong Dai who ambushed Zhou Beiwang, it is hard to say that he will not attack Kong Dai.

"Then what are you going to do? Play dumb and just let this go?" After Wan Qili asked Su Bai, she asked herself and answered: "I think Captain Zhou is right. Let's just let it go. As long as this doesn't happen again in the future, we need people right now, especially someone like Kong Dai who we can trust."

"Forget it? Of course not!"

"Then...sister, what are you going to do?" Wan Qili asked.

"Never mind, I've got an idea."

As they were talking, Kong Dai brought back news from Xiao Chunhong on the mountain. The handover at the North Mountain Pass would take place at 10 o'clock in the evening.

"Okay, go get ready. We only have two trucks, both with canopies. Let's haul a small amount of food for the first time. If everything goes well, we can continue tomorrow."

"No," Su Bai changed his mind again: "We will only transport one cart of food today."

"A cart?" Kong Dai asked in doubt. A cart weighed several hundred kilograms, which was not enough for the brothers on the mountain to have a full meal for a day.

"You're all counting on me to have enough to eat. Can I do that? Just prepare a whole car!" Su Bai had her own ideas. She wanted to explore the route today.

This is a risk that I shouldn't take, and I really don't have the obligation to do so.

Keeping a bandit group of five or six hundred people in the mountains was something Su Bai had never dreamed of doing, and she was not willing to do it.

She made Kong Dai understand that she was only helping them from the side to prevent them from starving to death.

"I understand, I understand!" Kong Dai nodded repeatedly.

At nine o'clock in the evening, Manager Wan sent a telegram back, saying that he had made an appointment with Mr. Xu, the agent of the Far East Fahua Pharmaceutical Company, and had agreed to complete the transaction within ten days.

After some bargaining, Mr. Xu proposed that if Ms. Lan could complete the purchase with gold bars, he would only need 130 gold bars.

At present, the exchange rate of Shanghai gold bars to ocean dollars is 1 to 360 yuan, but the market is slowly rising.

In this way, we can save more than 3,000 yuan compared to the previously agreed 50,000 yuan.

"More than 3000 yuan!" Wan Qili exclaimed, "The money saved is enough to buy a car!"

Wan Qili told Su Bai that before she came to Longxing, the father of one of her classmates had just bought a Buick sedan for 3000 yuan.

"I should buy a car in Longxing?" Su Bai found it a little ridiculous. The worst that could happen was that he could go to Linhua, which was more than ten miles away. If measured in kilometers, it was only more than 7 kilometers. Was it worth buying a car?

"Let's go to Shanghai to buy it. If you buy the pharmaceutical factory, won't you have to stay in Shanghai?"

Wan Qili believes that no matter what, the conditions in Shanghai are more than a hundred times better than here. Producing medicine here is shameful and one has to go up the mountain to bottle it.

Su Bai's ultimate destination is Chongqing, and Shanghai is just a transition, but he did not tell Wan Qili this.

Before, he only sent telegrams to Zi Yan's business to purchase some goods every few days, and he did not feel the importance of the radio station. This time, Su Bai truly realized how important it was to have a radio station in this era when communications were extremely underdeveloped.

This is also the most convenient and fastest way to communicate at present.

In the past few months, sending messages has not been subject to any control. The reason why I agreed with Manager Wan to contact each other at nine o'clock every day is because we are all busy during the day and it is impossible to arrange one person to guard the radio station at both ends.

After a while, Kong Dai came to tell Su Bai that a cart of food had been loaded and they were ready to set off.

Su Bai said to Kong Dai, "Uncle Kong, thank you for helping me for so long. This time you can go into the mountains with the food, and you don't have to come back to the Kong Mansion anymore."

Kong Dai asked in astonishment: "Madam, are you going to... drive me away?"

"Yes!" Su Bai answered firmly.
