Rong Xinzi accompanied Tong Jia to see Rong Xinzhi.

Seeing Rong Xinzhi's miserable condition, she was very glad that Tong Jia (Rong Xintong) was by her side, otherwise, Diao Yongting might have taken her life directly, and she would not even have the chance to be sent to the hospital by her neighbors.

But Tong Jia's next words made her jealous to the point of madness.

Tong Jia said, "Xiaozhi, after learning what happened to you, your brother-in-law and I went to find Qiao Hua.

At the beginning, his attitude was very firm. He insisted on getting a divorce and wanted you to leave the house.

After negotiation, he agreed to pay for your hospitalization and rehabilitation expenses after discharge, and he would pay you ten to twenty silver dollars a month for living expenses until you remarry.

Of course, the prerequisite is that the person you remarry doesn't mind your inability to have children.

This was the divorce agreement I signed with him on your behalf at the time. But just after the agreement was signed, an accident happened at the consulate and Qiao Huaren passed away.

So everything in this agreement is null and void.”

After signing the agreement, Tong Jia actually had a plan in mind. The living expenses had to be given to Rong Xinzhi, but the medical expenses and rehabilitation expenses had to be paid first.

After the dinner, he went to ask Qiao Hua for the money. In front of the consul, Qiao Hua gave the money very readily.

The money he gave was enough for Rong Xinzhi to stay in the hospital until the end of the year.

However, Tong Jia did not say this matter. She wanted to wait until Rong Xinzhi made her choice.

Sure enough, Rong Xinzhi's eyes, which had been dull, suddenly burst into an indescribable light after hearing the news of Qiao Hua's death.

She even wanted to sit up from the bed immediately, but her body was too weak to do so. She only raised her upper body and asked in a weak but smug tone, "If I don't acknowledge this divorce agreement, will all his property be mine?"

Tong Jia was stunned. She put the divorce papers on the table and looked at Rong Xinzhi deeply before saying, "It should be like this, but..."

"But what?" Rong Xinzhi asked anxiously.

Seeing that she was about to fall off the bed, Tong Jia stopped teasing her and said directly, "After you were sent to the hospital, Qiao Hua must have taken all your family's property and some important information to the Fuso Consulate because I was afraid that your brother-in-law and I would go to settle the score with him.

Last night, an accident occurred at the Fuso Consulate, resulting in many casualties.

Your eldest brother-in-law was also injured because of your divorce certificate, and his throat is still not clear enough for him to speak.

Don't have too much hope for the money that Qiao Hua took away. It's likely that you won't be able to get it back.

It will either be burned or taken away by the people cleaning up the scene. We will have nowhere to look for it, and it will offend a lot of people.

Fortunately, you still have a house, and as a widow, you can still inherit that house."

"Is that the only house left? There is no money left at home? Is he really so cruel as to leave me nothing?" As he spoke, he lay back on the bed in despair, tears streaming down his eyes.

Tong Jia and Rong Xinzi didn't say anything.

One doesn't want to tell lies and deceive others, and the other doesn't want to speak out because of jealousy.

Rong Xinzi, who had always been bullied by Diao Yongting, was jealous and his mind started to work.

Since her husband is dead, the wife can inherit his estate. There is no need for her to serve Diao Yongting in fear every day. She can find a suitable opportunity to kill Diao Yongting. Then she can live a good life.

Just as she was thinking about how to proceed, Rong Xinzhi spoke again, saying, "Sister, sister, please complete the discharge procedures for me. I want to be discharged and go home.

Since that house is the only one that belongs to me now, I must protect it well.”

Guarding the house is probably secondary. The real thing is probably the casino dividends hidden by Rong Xinzhi in the house.

Tong Jia didn't expose it, but still stopped him, saying, "Xiaozhi, you just had the operation, you need to stay in the hospital for at least three days.

Since you have decided to inherit the property as a widow, just tear up this divorce certificate.

Also, since you are still husband and wife, Qiao Hua's body must be taken back by his family for burial.

What exactly did Qiao Hua do when he went to the Fuso Consulate? No one knows except me and your brother-in-law.

Therefore, when his funeral is held, his colleagues should come to pay their respects to him.

If you don't take good care of your body, how will you be able to handle all the things that will happen in the future?"

"Miss..."

"If your brother-in-law's voice was fine, he would naturally be the one to handle these matters. But now he has trouble even speaking, let alone building relationships.

Your second brother-in-law...ah...

None of the sons-in-law in our family can be relied upon at critical moments.

Xiaozhi, listen to your elder sister and take good care of yourself in the hospital. I will come to pick you up the day after tomorrow morning.

Give your elder sister two days to find a good Feng Shui location for Qiao Hua. It will be worthwhile for you two to be together, right?

Once my elder sister finds a place and you are discharged from the hospital, everything else can be done smoothly, right?" When Rong Xinzhi was about to ask her for help, Tong Jia interrupted her by saying that she wanted to help find a good feng shui site.

Then, he turned to Rong Xinzi and said, "Since you've gone home to get your clothes, you should stay in the hospital and take good care of Xiaozhi for the next few days.

We are sisters after all. No matter what happens in normal times, when something really happens, the three of us will rely on each other.

I left Tian Ma here to take care of you two today, but she won't be able to do that tomorrow.

I'm going to find a Feng Shui good location for Qiao Hua. The house can't be left unattended, so Tian's mother has to go back.

I'll have to rely on you to take care of the hospital.

Also, if you don't like the two servants at Xiaozhi's house, talk to Xiaozhi about firing them and finding new ones."

The words were said cryptically, but both Rong Xinzi and Rong Xinzhi understood what she meant.

That is, these two people know too much, and there will be hidden dangers if they continue to stay around.

But we can't let them go now. After all, if these two go back home to get their luggage and there's no one at home, who knows if they will take away the things in the house?

Therefore, although Rong Xinzhi understood this logic, she did not agree to let the two people leave now.

After all, this was her family's servant, so Tong Jia and Rong Xinzi didn't say much.

After returning home that night, Tong Jia received her task.

As she expected, she searched for the warehouses hidden by Fuso around Shanghai according to the addresses in the information.

Although they are called warehouses, not all of them are actually warehouses. Some are warehouses, some are cellars, and some even have addresses that show they are in the river.

Tong Jia is only responsible for the urban area of Shanghai and the two surrounding suburban counties. There are naturally other people to look for in other places.

Yang Jixia was still responsible for dealing with people from the Shanghai Municipal Government, while Guo Xin racked his brains to contact the organization.

Everyone did their job and started to take action early the next morning.

Tong Jia took action on the night he received the task.

She was in charge of three warehouses, and she planned to check the two in the suburbs during the day, so that she could openly use the excuse of replacing Rong Xinzhi to find a Feng Shui site for Qiao Hua to check them out.

But the one in downtown Shanghai is not available. You can’t go there during the day and can only go there at night.

In fact, there is only one warehouse in the urban area of Shanghai. The location of this warehouse is very easy to find. It is the granary of a grain store, and it is easy to see what is inside.

But this is the most difficult warehouse for everyone.

The first difficulty is due to its geographical location, which is in the city. Even if you move at night, you will encounter patrolling police and will almost certainly be discovered.

The second difficulty is that there is more than one warehouse here.

The aboveground, or what was visible, was a granary, but in reality, there were two more floors underground of the same size.

The entrances to the two floors were separate, not from the same place. To find out, one had to get acquainted with the owner of the grain store.

There were only two days left, so let alone getting to know each other, I couldn't even go shopping.

After the incident at the Fuso Consulate, a sign was hung here saying "Family incident, closed for three days."

Without having to think about it, you know why this place is closed.

Late at night, Tong Jia packed lightly and went to the granary alone under Tao Junle's worried gaze.

After arriving at the granary, Tong Jia continued walking, spreading sleeping pills along the way, fearing that there might be people lying in ambush along the way and he would not notice them.

Finally, she confirmed that there was no one else awake on this floor except herself, and then she began to carefully look for the doors to the basement and second floors.

I felt along the walls around the granary and didn't find anything unusual.

Tong Jia turned her attention to the reed mats used to store grain.

Because I was so focused on touching, I didn't pay attention to the bump under my feet and almost tripped.

After barely maintaining her balance, she noticed that there were two unnatural bulges in front of the two-person-high reed mat. However, if she didn't walk up to it, she wouldn't be able to see them from a distance. They were only half the height of a fingernail.

Tong Jia pressed hard on one of the bumps, and a hole opened up in the reed mat in front, revealing a staircase leading down.

She held the sleeping pills in one hand and a flashlight in the other, and after turning three corners, she saw an iron gate.

I opened the door with the master key that I had prepared long ago. It was dark and gloomy inside, and there was a smell of dampness and mold.

Tong Jia shone a flashlight inside and found that there was nothing inside, and it didn't look like anything had been stored there.

Just as she was about to go up, she changed her mind and thought, if she dug the cellar herself, and dug such a large area, and didn't use it usually, and wasn't sure when she would use it, she should dehumidify and remove mold regularly.

Especially since there is so much grain on top, it is absolutely impossible to leave the cellar like this.

So, Tong Jia bravely walked in, and walked all the way to the end, but didn't find anything wrong. He thought he was wrong and was about to leave.

The moment she turned around, the flashlight cast her shadow on the wall. She thought someone had appeared and was startled by her own shadow. She stepped back and retreated directly against the wall.

After seeing clearly that it was his own shadow that had frightened him, Tong Jia patted his frightened heart and whispered, "It's so vague, it won't scare anyone. It might scare others, but it won't scare me."

Tong Jia really didn't want to stay here any longer, so he quickly ran back to the granary and pressed down another bulge.

There was another staircase leading down, but this time it was not as long as before and it only took a turn to reach the destination.

There was still an iron door at the entrance. When Tong Jia unlocked the door, she was stunned by what she saw.

This gave these Japanese people courage. There were only a few guns and bullets in the armory for show. The real armory was actually set up in the most prosperous downtown area of Shanghai, and even in the basement of the granary.

If something unexpected happens, the destruction of the food above is a small matter, but what about the many civilians around here?

The warehouse of nearly a thousand square meters was filled with guns and ammunition. Tong Jia couldn't imagine how much damage would be done once all of these were put to use.

Moreover, these weapons all have a certain smell of gunpowder. Even if Tong Jia uses an awl to poke out a few invisible covers, it cannot cover up the smell of gunpowder.

Tong Jia, who was seriously thinking about how to transport these guns and ammunition and deliver them to the organization, leaned back unconsciously and happened to lean against the wall next to the door. The moment he heard the sound, Tong Jia shuddered.

Thinking back to the sound of herself leaning against the wall in another cellar, Tong Jia felt something was wrong, so she immediately went back to the cellar.

She knocked on the wall and soon discovered from the echo that the wall she had accidentally leaned against was not solid at the back.

Even the method of opening the wall was extremely simple and unpretentious, relying entirely on force to push it open.

Pushing the stone wall aside, there is a tunnel behind it that can accommodate two people.

Tong Jia continued to walk forward with the flashlight, and unexpectedly walked all the way to the dock in the suburban county. This was a pleasant surprise for Tong Jia.

So, when she returned home that night, she told Guo Xin and Yang Jixia about her discovery.

The two men immediately adjusted the plan. Everything remained the same during the day. On the night of the official operation, Lao Wu led the team and went to the granary with Tong Jia. No matter whether it was food or guns and ammunition, nothing should be left to the Fuso Kingdom.

All of them were transported along the tunnel to the suburban county dock, and Yang Jixia and Guo Xin were waiting at the dock with their men and boats.

In this way, all the manpower was mobilized. Although it was a bit tight, it was not impossible to accomplish.

But there are quite a few ships, and they are used in such a large quantity that they must be reported to the higher authorities. Then the people in the grain store behind will certainly become suspicious of them when they find that the granary and guns and ammunition are missing.

Therefore, it is unrealistic to transport them all away at once, and they can only be transferred to other places first.

Not far from the suburban pier is the home of Rong Xinzhi and Qiao Hua.

While Rong Xinzhi was still in the hospital, they temporarily used the place as a temporary storage place for food.

As for guns and ammunition, they were naturally transported away overnight.
