Traveling through the Republic of China, I married a dead person
Chapter 218 Zhou Beiwang is in trouble
This Wang Shuan is not only a spy, but also very likely a Japanese spy!
Su Bai made this judgment mainly based on two points: his slightly clumsy Mandarin and the northeastern accent that appeared from time to time.
Moreover, the two had been talking for half an hour, and he never mentioned the issue of money. His interest was always in the medicine itself.
In half an hour, he asked for samples three times.
When the country was in crisis, there were those who advocated war, peace and surrender in the government.
Although the Wang Puppet Government was only established in 1940, it had already been flirting with the Japanese before that.
The Executive Yuan official that Wan Qili found for herself by using her connections might be a potential traitor.
Su Bai was not sure about his own inference, but with this doubt, the deal could definitely not go on.
We cannot afford to take this risk.
If his penicillin fell into the hands of the Japanese army, he would not only deserve death, but would be guilty of a thousand deaths.
"Okay, the drugs are all in Qingdao. I'll have someone bring some over and then contact Mr. Wang, okay?" Su Bai said as he stood up and shook hands with Wang Shuan again: "When the time comes, I hope Mr. Wang will be able to help you, okay?"
"Of course, of course!" When Wang Shuan asked about Su Bai's contact number, Su Bai lied that he had just arrived in Shanghai and even rented a house temporarily, so he didn't have a phone number.
"I will call Mr. Wang when the samples arrive." Su Bai raised Wang Shuan's business card in his hand.
Su Bai's business card was given to Wang Shuan, but there was no phone number or address on it, just a name and the name of a non-existent business.
The previous caution now seems very necessary. From the moment Wan Qili contacted Wang Shuan, it was never made clear whether this special-effect drug was trafficked or produced.
The only thing Su Bai didn't lie to Wang Shuan was that he did rent a house.
After coming out of the Paramount, Su Bai did not talk to Wan Qili and Xu Tianyi who came out later, but went straight home.
As soon as Wan Qili and Xu Tianyi came back, Su Bai handed the business card to Wan Qili: "Can the telephone office find someone familiar to check where this phone is and whether it matches the address on the business card?"
"Don't worry, I'll take care of it." Wan Qili took the business card and asked, "Why, is this person unreliable?"
Xu Tianyi asked something else: "Did he ask for too much?"
"I felt this person was very suspicious. From the time I met him until I left, he never mentioned a word about money."
Xu Tianyi and Zi Yan agreed that it was not yet time to ask for money, and he would definitely ask for it the next time they met.
Su Bai had to look at Wan Qili differently again. Her opinion was basically the same as Su Bai's. She was just a middleman. It was extremely abnormal that she didn't mention money but only medicine.
Wan Qili's efficiency this time was so high that Su Bai had never expected it. Just one night later, on the morning of June 6, she brought the information verified by the telephone company. The address on Wang Shuan's business card was indeed the installation address of the telephone company.
The only thing that didn't match the name on the business card was the owner of the phone. The name printed on the business card was Baili Company, but the owner registered with the telephone company was an individual named Wang Deli.
Unexpectedly, Manager Wan actually knew Wang Deli and his Baili Company.
Baili Company is a company that mainly deals in daily necessities. Its business in Shanghai is neither big nor small, and Wang Deli is somewhat famous in the circle.
Wang Shuan's business card showed that he was the assistant manager of Baili Company. The term "assistant manager" was relatively old-fashioned to Su Bai, but she knew that in the Republic of China, this position was roughly equivalent to the role of deputy manager, the second or third in command.
Manager Wan said that Wang Deli and Wang Shuan have the same surname, Wang, and are very likely relatives. Although he has never dealt with Wang Deli, he can ask someone to help Su Bai find out about the relationship between Wang Shuan and Wang Deli.
Nowadays, it is very normal for small companies like Wang Deli's to have relatives hold key positions in the company.
"No!" Su Bai immediately rejected Manager Wan's direct approach.
"How many years has this Baili company been established?" Su Bai asked.
"Ah," Shopkeeper Wan thought for a moment, "I'm not sure about the exact time, but it's been at least seven or eight years."
If Wang Shuan was really a spy, or even a Japanese spy, it would be unlikely that he had been working at Baili Company seven or eight years ago, right?
Seven or eight years ago, the September 18th Incident in Northeast China had not yet happened.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of it." Wan Qili understood what Su Bai meant before he could fully express it, and took over the matter.
Shopkeeper Wan on the side nodded frequently, seeming to understand and trust his daughter's abilities very well.
That night, Kong Yun sent some bad news.
It was Qian Rufei who found Kong Man and asked her to tell Su Bai that Zhou Beiwang could not contact Su Bai for the time being because he was arrested by Kong Li.
Su Bai was very anxious when he heard the news, but Kong Yun calmly talked about the things Su Bai hated to hear the most.
She told Su Bai, and Kong Man learned that Zhou Beiwang had been in contact with Su Bai via telegram, and she became very angry.
She even didn't let Kong Yun report to Su Bai about the news reported by Qian Rufei.
It was not until after dinner that she calmed down a little and allowed Kong Yun to send a telegram to Su Bai.
The thing is, Su Bai asked the Second Wife to find a way to inform Xu Laohei's people to leave Shili Peak. After receiving the news, Xu Laohei did not take it seriously and did not leave Shili Peak at all.
Just a few days ago, Kong Li's army had an exchange of fire with Xu Laohei at Shili Peak, which ended up involving Yang Huasen, who led his troops to support. In the end, Xu Laohei had no choice but to flee Shili Peak under the cover of Yang Huasen's troops, with heavy casualties.
However, Kong Li did not gain much advantage either, and suffered heavy casualties.
Kong Li decided to go into the mountains again to suppress the bandits and has already asked the provincial government for reinforcements.
In this situation, Kong Li asked Zhou Beiwang to buy some penicillin in advance.
Just after Zhou Beiwang agreed and was preparing to go to Qingdao pretending to buy medicine and send Qian Rufei to Kong Mansion to get the medicine on the same day, Zhou Beiwang found that he was being followed at Linhua Bus Station.
At the Linhua Bus Station, he told Qian Rufei, who came to see him off, to give up going to the Confucius Mansion to get the medicine and wait until he returned from Qingdao.
The people who followed Zhou Beiwang followed him all the way to Qingdao. After Zhou Beiwang got rid of them and returned to Linhua, he told Kong Li that he did not find the smuggler who sold the medicine.
Kong Li directly arrested Zhou Beiwang, and the situation is still unclear.
This Kong Li is finally going to take action against penicillin.
"Will Captain Zhou give my sister away?" Wan Qili asked.
"No." Su Bai was very sure about this.
"Well, what good will it do if I confess? We are in Shanghai. I am not bragging at all. If this Kong Li comes to Shanghai, he won't survive a minute as long as I know about it!" Wan Qili boasted about Haikou.
"Really?" Su Bai asked.
"It's almost there. Let me try!" Wan Qili's tone immediately softened.
But Su Bai didn't think she was bragging, she might really have the ability.
