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

Su Bai thought there was no need to break up with Wan Qili easily. If she really stole the streptomycin, just let her take it. Chang Shunbao only needed to count them to know how many she took.

However, it would be different if she took penicillin and erythromycin from Niu Yanzi. Liu Yizhong must secretly take them back.

Once he became wary of the Wan family, Su Bai began to be careful in everything. Chang Shunbao had only been in Shanghai for more than a day and had not met Manager Wan. When Su Bai sent Chang Shunbao to the dock in the afternoon, he made a special call to Han Charlie and borrowed his Model T.

Han Charlie drove to No. 41 Bishop Yao Road. After the driver sent Chang Shunbao away, Han Charlie told Su Bai that he had helped Su Bai preliminarily select two courtyards and let Su Bai choose from them.

His efficiency is amazing. It's only been half a day and I got news on the thing I asked him to do in the morning before dark.

No. 55 Haige Road. The main reason why Su Bai chose this yard was that it was big enough for a car to drive in, and more importantly, it had a telephone.

Since the homeowner has been away for a long time, the phone service has been suspended. This is easy to do and you can just go to the telephone office to get connected.

This courtyard was originally the property of a director of the Municipal Council. He wanted to sell the house before he left Shanghai for France more than half a year ago, but he was unable to sell it until he left.

Currently, another director of the Municipal Council is managing the property for him, which is only sold and not rented out.

Han Charlie boasted to Su Bai that he had done a great job and with his eloquent persuasion, the director finally agreed to sell the house and rent it out at the same time. He would collect as much rent as he could before selling the house.

"What if a buyer comes in after I just rent the house? Wouldn't I have to move out?" Su Bai had no choice but to decide to rent another yard.

"Since Miss Lan likes this one, let's rent it!" Han Charlie patted his chest and promised to let Su Bai rest assured that this house would definitely not be sold.

Su Bai understood, so he took the police to patrol the area all day long. If a buyer came, he would definitely use some despicable means to make the house unsaleable.

A bit unethical.

Su Bai believed that Charlie Han could do this, but she still felt uneasy and asked, “How much does this yard cost?”

"2000 dollars." Han Charlie said that these foreigners did not understand the market and asked for a random price. Haige Road was relatively remote and could not compare to other places. If this small western-style house with a large courtyard was placed on Xiafei Road, no one would think it was expensive if it was sold for 3000 or even 4000 dollars. But in this place, some people would think it was not worth it.

Especially now, the smell of war is so strong. Although China and Japan have not yet gone to war, no one is buying houses.

"The war hasn't started yet?" Su Bai asked casually. Didn't the war officially start after the July 7 Incident?

"No!" Han Charlie touched his body: "I just bought a copy of the latest extra edition and got on the car. Let me tell Miss Lan the general idea!"

On the way to No. 41, Han Charlie bought the latest special edition of Shen Bao. A ceasefire had been declared in Wanping City. The National Government had lodged a verbal protest to the Japanese ambassador, and the Japanese cabinet meeting had also proposed a policy of not escalating the incident and resolving it on the spot.

Han Charlie said, and gave a thumbs up: "Well done to the brothers of the 29th Army, you have repelled the three attacks launched by the Japanese army!"

Su Bai was a little confused. Why did they want to negotiate peace while fighting was going on?

Could it be that the curve of history turns here?

"What are you thinking, Miss Lan? Are you still worried that someone else will buy the yard? Don't you believe that I can ruin the purchase of the house, or don't you want me to do it?"

Su Bai pulled his thoughts back from Lugou Bridge and smiled: "Let's buy this courtyard."

Su Bai didn't want to cause trouble, so he spent money to avoid disaster.

Han Charlie was stunned for a moment and said, "Then... I'll go to the Municipal Council and negotiate the price with him again. It will definitely not cost 2000 yuan!"

"Buy the house in your name!" Su Bai grabbed Han Charlie who was about to leave.

"Why, why?" Han Charlie didn't understand.

"I will definitely leave Shanghai one day in the future. When I leave Shanghai safely, this courtyard will belong to Inspector Han."

You can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a lamb. Su Bai decided to completely make Han Charlie his own by treating his sister's tuberculosis and buying him a yard.

In the concession, the bribed director is useful, but the inspector who is directly responsible for public security is even more useful.

"This... isn't good?" After failing to refuse, Charlie Han said that he understood Miss Lan didn't want people to know that it was she who bought the house, so he could buy it in his name, but the house still belonged to Miss Lan, and he would not accept the reward without any merit.

"Okay, let's talk about this later. Thank you for troubling Inspector Han."

"No, this is my duty!" Han Charlie asked in a low voice after being polite. He just sent the gentleman away in a T-type car...

Su Bai nodded: "I went to buy raw materials for your sister."

"This, this, this, what can I say?" Han Charlie was deeply moved and said that he must pay for the round-trip ticket. When Mr. Chang comes back, he will notify him and he will drive to pick him up from the dock personally.

"Don't worry, Inspector Han, as long as Mr. Chang's trip goes smoothly, there is hope for your sister's illness." Although Su Bai said it 100% of the time in a hurry in the police station that morning, now that he has calmed down, he feels that it is better to leave some wiggle room for himself.

Her words caused Han Charlie to keep asking questions, and he even asked how sure Miss Lan was and whether she could tell him the truth.

It can be seen that although Su Bai spoke confidently in the police station, he still didn't dare to believe it. After all, doctors couldn't do anything about tuberculosis.

There are examples of cures, but that depends on fate, not medical skills.

In order to cure his sister's illness, Han Charlie spent all his salary and shameful income, but his sister's condition became worse day by day.

Su Bai had no way to answer his question. Fortunately, Zi Yan said to him, "If Miss Lan can't cure this disease, no one else can. My parents had tuberculosis, and it was Miss Lan who cured them!"

Charlie Han stopped talking, bowed to Su Bai several times and left, and turned back before leaving and said, “I will finalize the house matter with Miss Lan tonight!”

"Wait, take the money first!" Su Bai took out 6 gold bars and handed them to Han Charlie.

Only then did I feel a little sad. Gold bars were like flowing water, and I saw my gold bars decreasing day by day.

At present, one gold bar in Shanghai can be exchanged for 360 yuan, and 6 gold bars are more than 2000 yuan. Even if Charlie Han and the director cannot agree on the price, it is enough.

"You're taking so many gold bars before the deal is done?" Zi Yan tried to stop Su Bai. The master and servant had been together for such a long time and had already developed a tacit understanding. Zi Yan knew that Su Bai wanted to win over Han Charlie, so she cooperated with Su Bai in acting without any ambiguity.

"Inspector Han is not an outsider. If you can't trust Inspector Han in Shanghai, who else can you trust?" Su Bai continued.

After Han Charlie left, Zi Yan said to him that Su Bai should give him half first. If he stole the six gold bars, we are unfamiliar with Shanghai and there is nothing we can do to him.

"Will it?" Su Bai asked her.

"I have a hunch," Zi Yan said. She felt that this house could not be bought for the time being, and even if we bought it, we could not live in it. Han Charlie would definitely wait until Su Bai cured his sister's illness before handing the house over to Su Bai.

If the condition cannot be cured, the gold bar will be wasted by him.

"Believe me, I think my premonition will come true this time!" Zi Yan said again.
