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

Su Bai was not interested in Wan Qili's suggestion.

The most important thing was that what she was worried about did not happen. She was going to Shanghai soon, and this was the serious business. She must not lose the big picture for the small.

……

Early in the morning, Kong Dai was waiting in the yard.

Before Xiao Wei returned to Li's house yesterday, Su Bai asked him to inform Kong Dai not to rush up the mountain, and to come to the backyard first as there was something going on.

Su Bai decided to keep Kong Dai.

The first reason was what Wan Qili had analyzed with her yesterday. Kong Dai knew too much, and it was unsafe to force him up the mountain.

The second reason was that he didn't know when he would be able to come back from Shanghai this time. With Kong Dai around, he could help the eldest daughter Kong Man to control the Kong Mansion. Although he couldn't afford to offend Kong Li, he was enough to deal with the ladies in the Kong Mansion.

Kong Dai admitted his mistake to Su Bai and said that he would never act on his own without Su Bai's permission again, especially after he attacked Su Bai's friend. Su Bai took the opportunity to keep him.

She told her that she would be going out in a few days and might be gone for ten days or half a month. During this period, she hoped that the Kong family would be safe and sound and nothing would happen.

"What about delivering food?" Kong Dai was still thinking about delivering food to the mountain.

Yesterday alone, Xiao Wei and a dozen people bought grain from various grain stores in Linhua, and the grain filled up most of the south room in the Li Mansion. What if they didn't deliver it?

"Go ahead. Contact Xiao Chunhong and tell Yang Huasen that I want absolute safety. Most of the Kong family members are women. If something happens, no one can escape!"

Kong Dai agreed repeatedly and promised that this time everything would be foolproof.

Not long after Kong Dai left, Xu Tianyi came back. He went out early in the morning to block the little monk who went down the mountain to buy vegetables, and confirmed that the ones who robbed food last night were the fake monks under Tang Sanwa.

I also learned a piece of news from the young monk that these guys pulled the horse back yesterday, killed it this morning, and set up a big pot in the Dongtian Temple to stew the horse meat.

It's really immoral to go to someone else's temple to stew meat.

Xu Tianyi was very angry about this. He planned to borrow a sniper rifle from Zhou Beiwang and ambush on the mountains around Dongtian Temple to kill anyone who came out.

"Do we have time to do such boring things?" Su Bai scolded Xu Tianyi.

I used to think that I could go to Shanghai as soon as I saved enough money. Now that I have enough money, I find that there are many things I need to do before going to Shanghai.

Because Su Bai was prepared to never return to Longxing.

In this case, we have to try to be more thoughtful.

She planned to take Xu Tianyi, Zi Yan and Wan Qili there first, while Niu Yanzi and the others would continue to give birth here.

After arriving in Shanghai, he bought the factory and purchased the necessary equipment. Then he contacted the relevant departments of the Kuomintang government and convinced them that he could move the factory to Chongqing.

Su Bai has already made up his mind that he can't keep delaying like this. If he can't contact people from the Kuomintang government for the time being, he can transport the equipment from Shanghai to Chongqing to open a factory before the Battle of Shanghai on August 13th.

Once Shanghai is certain, Xu Tianyi will be sent back to inform Niu Yanzi and others, and they will rush to Chongqing with the produced medicines.

She had to arrange matters at the Kong Mansion in advance. Although she had hardly had a peaceful day in the past half year or so since she moved into the Kong Mansion, when she really had to leave, she found herself a little reluctant to leave.

In any case, if it weren’t for this experience at the Confucius Mansion, it would have been difficult to get my pharmaceutical business started, and I might not have been able to produce the first batch of penicillin until now, let alone erythromycin.

After much thought, Su Bai decided to leave the business to Kong Man and Kong Yun.

Since everything was still uncertain and she couldn't tell them the truth yet, she called the two young ladies over and asked them to quickly familiarize themselves with the company's business.

"I'm going to take Zi Yan with me this time. Lin Hua's business has just opened and the business is pretty good. We can't close it for half a month just because Zi Yan is away, right? You two should discuss who will take over?"

"Let's both go and learn!" They both said they wanted to go.

Su Bai told them that the Kong Mansion was taken care of by Kong Dai and Guo Deyi, and as long as Kong Chen and Kong Li stopped bullying us, nothing would happen.

In fact, Su Bai understood that as long as he was not in the Kong Mansion, Kong Chen and Kong Li would most likely not cause trouble for the orphans and widows in the Kong Mansion again.

The company's business is pretty good. According to the current momentum, it should not be a problem to earn four or five hundred dollars a month.

Su Bai left five gold bars for Kong Man to use as working capital.

Su Bai discovered that Kong Yun was crying.

Not only Kong Yun, but even the eldest daughter Kong Man had red eyes.

"What's wrong?" Su Bai touched Kong Yun's face.

"Sister-in-law, don't you want us anymore?" Kong Yun cried out.

"How could that be? How could you think like that?" Su Bai gritted his teeth, took out five more gold bars, and handed them to Kong Man in total of ten: "If you recognize me as your sister-in-law, I will not disown you two sisters!"

Kong Man asked, "Is it because Uncle Kong attacked Captain Zhou that the sister-in-law is angry?"

"No." Su Bai said seriously, "I am indeed very angry about this matter, but it has nothing to do with my going out this time. I planned to go out this time a long time ago. If everything goes well, I will be back within half a month. You guys take care of the business and wait for me."

"Then..." Kong Man thought for a moment and asked again, "What if the company needs to purchase goods? How can we contact Shopkeeper Wan?"

There is no wall that is impenetrable. Although Su Bai had never told anyone in the Kong Mansion, including Kong Dai, that Manager Wan was in charge of the company's purchases, they still knew about it.

It’s not difficult actually, you can guess it.

Suddenly, Su Bai felt that the secrets he had tried so hard to protect were in danger of leaking out.

Since Kong Man already knows, just tell her to make a plan and send a letter to Manager Wan a few days in advance.

Su Bai immediately added that it would only take half a month, and she and Zi Yan would bring back some more goods before leaving.

Su Bai said this because he was afraid that they would suspect that he would never come back, and this was a temporary measure to appease them.

Because I can't tell whether I will come back or not, even though I really don't want to come back.

"Sister-in-law, can I use your radio?" Kong Yun asked suddenly, scaring Su Bai.

Only then did I realize that Kong Yun had already known about the existence of this radio station.

Once, the fourth young lady wanted to eat toffee, so Kong Yun ran to Wan Qili's room and looked for it. He didn't find any candy, but he found the suitcase containing the radio.

There was a radio station in Mr. Kong’s army, she recognized it.

Su Bai and Wan Qili didn't know about this. They must have gone to Li's house to do something busy and forgot to lock the door, allowing Kong Yun to discover the radio.

"Do you know how to use it?" Su Bai asked.

What Su Bai didn't expect was that Kong Man and Kong Yun could both send telegrams!

This was when Master Kong was still alive. He asked the two of them to learn from the radio operators of the Kong Family Army. Although they were not very skilled, they were able to send messages.

"My father said that if there is a shortage of people during the war, we two can be used."

"Okay," Su Bai told them that under normal circumstances, she would come back without waiting for the message to be sent. If there was an emergency, the message could be sent at nine o'clock in the evening.

"Sister-in-law, don't lie to me. Are you not planning to come back?" Kong Yun started crying again.

"Don't worry," Su Bai wiped her tears, "I won't abandon you."
