Because Cao Guixiu promised a good show, he didn't go back to the town for dinner, so he shared a table in the camp to eat an open-air banquet. The aroma of taro and donkey meat stewed in a large pot wafted ten miles away. Cheng Fengtai has always eaten less but carefully, although he is not picky when he goes out, his appetite has become more refined, and now he smells the smell of meat, and he feels his appetite is very high. Since Cheng Fengtai and Cao Guixiu conspired together for a major event, they could be regarded as having a heart-to-heart relationship, so he didn't need to be polite, and brought Lao Ge and two fellows to the table.
In the distance, Cao Guixiu was grimacing, scolding and walking all the way, and next to him was a middle-aged man with glasses, like a teacher, who was also grimacing, talking back all the way. As we approached and gradually heard what they were saying, Cao Guixiu said: "Don't talk about those big things! Did the Japanese talk about the treaty when they were in Nanjing? Did they talk about the treaty when they dropped the poison gas bombs? There are only a few Japanese soldiers, big ass Just kill it and throw it away, and you won’t let it go! The rules are set by Cao Guixiu alone?"
The middle-aged man said: "War is not revenge! What we are talking about is discipline! The division commander takes the lead in not observing discipline! How can I manage the soldiers!"
Cao Guixiu waved his hand: "It's your business to manage! I have a guest today! Don't embarrass yourself!"
The middle-aged man had nothing to say to this unreasonable warlord, so he turned his head angrily and left. Cao Guixiu yelled at his back angrily: "Come back! It's time to eat!" The middle-aged man said: "Teacher, treat the guests! I'm going to rehearse the play!" Cao Guixiu muttered something, sat down in anger, and drank a glass of wine with his neck up. Cheng Fengtai asked: "Who is that one?" Cao Guixiu said angrily: "That's my real father!"
On this day, Cao Guixiu lost both parents. After eating, drinking, and chatting at the dinner table, Cao Guixiu calmed down a bit, and called the soldiers: "Put a pot of donkey meat and bring it to Lao Xia. Don't let him give it away to others!" It seems that the father's surname is Xia , and the father is kind and the son is filial, Cao Guixiu thinks highly of him. Then the conversation during the meeting talked about the Battle of Songhu, Cao Guixiu asked Cheng Fengtai about the situation in Shanghai after the war. Cheng Fengtai lived with his father in many foreign places since he was a child, and when he came to Beiping, except for the colder weather, the scenery was also very pleasant, and he always felt that he had no special nostalgia for Shanghai. When something really happened in Shanghai, I realized that my heart ached and I told Cao Guixiu: "The bomb blew up the power plant and killed many people. One of my spinning mills was also blown up, and the other one was confiscated by the Japanese. I don't think so." Giving away such a big bargain for nothing, and entrusting the relationship with Japanese to buy shares, who knows, this became a Japanese businessman again." Cheng Fengtai shook his head and smiled wryly: "I don't even know how to behave!"
Cao Guixiu said: "The way of the world is to force people to be either black or white. It won't work if you take the middle way. The public opinion is not flattering, and in the end you will be slapped on both sides."
These words seemed to be beating Cheng Fengtai and strengthening his determination. Cheng Fengtai didn't speak, Lao Ge said: "My lord, the conscience of heaven and earth, my servants will inevitably call for grievances for the second master! Once there is a war in Shanghai, our second master and Uncle Fan's family will help more! It used to be in the cotton mill Don’t talk about posting the money you earn, even open the door of your own mansion to the victims of the disaster. Not to mention a businessman, even a local parent official, this is enough to get on the road!”
After hearing this, Cao Guixiu poured wine for Cheng Fengtai and raised his glass: "Little uncle is benevolent, I toast my little uncle."
Cheng Fengtai then told him the tricks of the national army's bullets in the Songhu War, and said: "When I was young, I used to go hunting with my neighbor's uncle in Sheshan. Rub it on the scalp to evenly wear off the copper plating on the outside, and the warhead fired out is like a bazooka, it will explode when it is stained with blood, there is no way out, it is specially worn close to the body, and it is used to fight fierce beasts and enemies." Cheng Fengtai laughed: "I always thought This is a unique trick in the Jianghu, I didn't expect our soldiers to be used so easily in the war in Shanghai this time."
Cao Guixiu said: "It's a war, how can there be so much time to grind your scalp slowly."
Cheng Fengtai said: "It's the same after wiping the soles of the shoes a few times, but the aim is a bit off, and it's okay for close combat."
Cao Guixiu immediately put down his chopsticks and ordered someone to test it on the spot, and the results were really extraordinary. Lao Xia heard gunshots in the distance, thinking that Cao Guixiu was engaging in lynching and execution again in disregard of discipline, so he wiped his mouth and rushed to see, but it turned out to be all right, Cao Guixiu glared at him: "Have you eaten enough donkey meat?" Lao Xia adjusted his glasses and said, "The show is over, please move the master and the guests."
The stage is an oilcloth shed built flat with earth, with a few light bulbs hanging from it. The costumes and makeup are not worth mentioning. Cheng Fengtai and Cao Guixiu sat in the front row, behind them were black recruits covering an area of two acres. They grew up in the countryside, and it was once in a lifetime to watch a play. Today was a holiday, but since the officer was present, no matter how happy they were No one dared to make any noise, the commotion was stuffy in the jar, the low buzzing sound reminded Cheng Fengtai of those scenes after Shang Xirui's deafness, the audience also subtly suppressed it.
Lao Xia stepped onto the stage, cleared his throat, leaned in front of the microphone and said, "Do you know what everyone is doing here tonight?"
The following answered together: "Watching a play!"
Lao Xia suppressed the rising and falling human voices with both hands, with an almost loving expression on his face: "You guys, you are only half right. We want to watch this play, but what we want to watch is not only a play! We also want to watch this show." The truth in the play, you have to learn! I know, everyone left their hometowns and came to the army. Their eyes were darkened. Will be a big hindrance to troop life! However, it can be learned slowly…”
Cheng Fengtai asked Cao Guixiu: "This old Xia, his original occupation was a teacher, right?"
Cao Guixiu glanced at Cheng Fengtai: "Can you tell?"
Cheng Fengtai thought it was very obvious, and asked again: "Where did you find it? Why put such a person in the army?"
Cao Guixiu laughed and said: "Commander Cao exchanged a battalion of equipment for his wife's jewels, and I took his life out of the big prison, and the cost is enough for eight big diamond rings!" Cheng Fengtai looked a little surprised, and Cao Guixiu continued: "Don't underestimate this scholar! If you use it well, it can be a cavalry regiment for me."
Cheng Fengtai also asked: "Why?"
When Cao Guixiu pointed at the stage, all the reasons were on it.
The show has already started on the stage, and the little soldier who announced the curtain came up and held his stomach and said loudly: "Please enjoy the new drama "Xia Lao San" next! This is a story that happened in the countryside in the south of the Yangtze River..."
There is not much to say about the content of the play. It is probably about the three sons of a peasant family. The eldest was conscripted by the warlord Commander Li and died in the civil war. In the famine years that followed, Xia Lao Er went to the city to make a living for a pair of younger siblings and his mother, but he was tricked into the claws of capitalist Boss Zhang. He worked day and night, and finally died of lung disease and coughing up blood. The boss was so greedy that the younger sister in the family was so hungry that she dug up wild vegetables and ate poisonous weeds and died. The costumes, props, and acting lines of the two episodes are not worth mentioning, but they are all down-to-earth vernacular, rough and lively, so that even soldiers can understand. After they understood it, they talked a lot, and wiped away their tears on the stage with shallow eye sockets. The experiences of the Xia family brothers were all things that happened around them, or they had heard or seen it, or they were themselves. On this point, Cheng Fengtai and Cao Guixiu cannot enter the play anyway.
During the break between the scenes, Lao Xia came to the stage: "Hey, to tell you the truth, the eldest Xia and the second Xia are my two elder brothers." When Lao Xia said this, he couldn't help but burst into tears. The soldier below yelled: "Then did you ask Commander Li and Boss Zhang to avenge your brother?!" Lao Xia said: "How could I not! I was young and energetic back then! I went to the city to find Boss Zhang and beat me up in the street! But Boss Zhang is rich and powerful, so he sent me to prison..."
The little soldiers were so angry that they shook their fists and rolled their sleeves, and wanted to beat the villain to death for Lao Xia. Cheng Fengtai felt that it might not be true that Lao Xia beat up Boss Zhang in the street, it's not wrong that the fight between the poor and the rich suffered a lot. Lao Xia said: "Everyone be quiet, be quiet! I understand everyone's sense of justice, we, the poor love the poor! However, we killed Boss Zhang and Boss Chen and Boss Wang; we killed Boss Li. Commander, and Commander Wu and Commander Zheng. There are tens of thousands of warlords and capitalists in the world, and only by crushing the class can the common people be completely saved from suffering!"
Cheng Fengtai had heard this class-crushing argument from Chachaer, and it heralded the first disagreement between their brothers and sisters. He immediately became unhappy and said to Cao Guixiu: "If you want to talk about capitalists, I am also a capitalist. Look at this Meaning to crush me?"
Cao Guixiu's complexion was not good. The Cao family started their career as a warlord, and they have done a lot of things to kill people on credit. They called the adjutant and said: "Tell Lao Xia to talk about business! Don't get it on your own head!"
The adjutant went to convey the order, Lao Xia listened to it with his head tilted, turned around and changed his tone: "Of course, the priority is on the top priority, now our primary enemy is Japan, we must form an anti-Japanese national united front and unite all the forces that can be united , even if they are warlords and capitalists.”
Cheng Fengtai understands, the co-author intends to unite him first, and then eliminate him, no matter how you think about it, it's not a good feeling, but fortunately the next scene starts, and he won't be allowed to mutter. The following plot is much more exciting than the previous two. The protagonist Xia Laosan failed to avenge his brother and fell into an unjust prison. After half a year in prison, Xia Laosan met a wise man full of new ideas, and was fortunate to hear a lot of true knowledge, just like a stubborn stone pointed at by a fairy, he was enlightened. Under the guidance of the wise man, Xia Laosan worked hard to study and improve after he was released from prison, teaching and educating people, until the Japanese invaded China, the wise man died in the flames of war, Xia Laosan took the risk of gathering corpses to pay homage to his benefactor, and then left his family and business to join the army. Dedicated to the war. The characters are vivid, the plot is tortuous, and it has a taste of Monte Cristo. It can be called a first-class drama that Cheng Fengtai has seen, so he also forgets the hidden danger that he may be eliminated, and discusses the story enthusiastically with Cao Guixiu.
Cao Guixiu proudly said that the whole play was written by Lao Xia alone, Cheng Fengtai said with a smile: "It's enough to be a screenwriter in a big city." He has great prospects!" It can be seen that Lao Xia has a high prestige in the team and is in charge of the ideological system, but Cheng Fengtai feels that this talent is not only talented, but his words are very strange. He has dealt with "over there" and has experienced it. "Over there" style, he hesitated for a while before whispering: "There is a word, I said something wrong, don't scold me, young master." Cao Guixiu nodded: "Please tell me, little uncle." Cheng Fengtai said: "This old Xia, look It's a bit..." Cheng Fengtai smacked his mouth, and laughed in an indescribable way: "It's a bit red!"
Cao Guixiu seemed to be honored that Lao Xia's identity was found out, his face became more and more complacent, and Cheng Fengtai's hair was creeping with a smile. Cao Guixiu disobeyed his father's order to fight against Japan, which was already a major event. If he voted for the Communist Party, it would add another major event. Cheng Fengtai couldn't sit still at that time, Cao Guixiu hurriedly pressed his hand: "Don't worry, little uncle! I just want to lend him some energy, and he is never allowed to make moves in the team." He laughed again: "A while ago I saw that they were not happy. Less books, we are far behind when it comes to rectification, and we have to learn from others! If you don’t endure hardships, you don’t have determination, and you can’t fight. People can really endure hardships!”
Why is the ethos of the national army far worse than that of the Redists? Cao Guixiu didn't think about it carefully, but just copied that set of enlightenment model roughly. Cheng Fengtai is neither an educator nor a military strategist, so he said a few words to be cautious, so he didn't say anything more. After the play, Cheng Fengtai and his men went back to the town to rest without mentioning it, and left early the next morning. Cao Guixiu came to accompany him for breakfast, and Lao Xia also came with him. With red shoulders, he pushed him to Cao Guixiu, and praised: "Master! This is a good seed! I said that it is not easy to recognize ten characters in one night, but he can recognize more than thirty! Do you want to see it?" If he is an adjutant, just assign him to me, I am in need of helpers, such a smart kid, he is so quick-witted, he can work after a month of teaching!"
Cao Guixiu raised his chopsticks and waved his hands: "Don't think about me! Those soldiers are all pig brains? Is my people so fragrant?"
When Cheng Fengtai heard this sentence, he knew that La Yuehong had a solid future. Sure enough, Cao Guixiu turned his head and said, "La Yuehong's name is so dusty, what's your natal name?" La Yuehong shook his head. "Then take my surname." Cao Guixiu broke off a piece of steamed bun and said while eating, "You came out of Boss Shang's yard. It's April again, so you're called Cao Simei." .
As early as possible after the meal, Cao Guixiu sent Cheng Fengtai out of the town all the way, and the two repeatedly confirmed the details of the big event in the future. Cheng Fengtai said with a smile: "If you say you don't want to go abroad, you have to leave in the end." Cao Guixiu said: "Not necessarily, Commander Cao will really treason one day, the Japanese will probably give you an imperial merchant." Cheng Fengtai said: "Forgive me, one day, I will have to go!" Cao Guixiu was silent for a moment, and put his arm on Cheng Fengtai's shoulder in a friendly way: "Whether things succeed or fail, I will not hurt my little uncle." Cheng Fengtai listened to these words I had counted, but I didn't really believe it. Sitting in the car and getting ready to go on the road, Cao Simei said goodbye to Cheng Fengtai without saying a word, and stood behind Cao Guixiu as if she didn't know her, and immediately entered the scene of the adjutant, so it can be seen that she is a ruthless person crossing rivers and tearing down bridges. Cheng Fengtai didn't have much to say to Cao Simei at first, but when he saw his manner, he wanted to call him over and say a few words, "Little opera singer, you really didn't learn Chinese in Shuiyun Tower? Who usually reads the newspaper in the background?" Did Boss Shang listen?" Cao Simi looked embarrassed, and looked back in a panic, afraid that Cao Guixiu might overhear. Cheng Fengtai didn't have anything extra to say, he sneered and let Lao Ge drive away.
The car drove out of the county, and the journey went smoothly, but the two big men whispered, they turned their heads repeatedly, and took a peek at Cheng Fengtai, as if there was something unspeakable. Cheng Fengtai closed his eyes, rested his mind and stood still: "Speak up if you have something to say, why are you sneaking around."
"Second Lord, maybe we got it wrong, don't take it seriously." One of the big guys hesitated and said, "We saw a few soldiers in Mr. Cao's barracks, they looked like the military bandits who robbed us back then."
Cheng Fengtai suddenly opened his eyes: "Look carefully?"
The big man said: "When those soldiers saw us, they lowered their heads and avoided them, and they never appeared again."
Cheng Fengtai yelled to stop, and thought back and forth, it would not take much effort for Cao Guixiu to know Cheng Fengtai's delivery route and time, so it was easy to hook outsiders to attack him. No wonder Cao Guixiu used to be honest with him, but after Miss Cao San got married, he changed his attitude. At the wedding, he stood at attention and saluted him! Is this a salute to him? This is a salute to money! When Cheng Fengtai thought of this, his teeth itch with anger, not because he felt sorry for the lost money, but because he was angry that Cao Guixiu shouldn't have made money and then murdered his capable man. But the past few years, now that the two are in an alliance, it's so boring to turn around to find bad luck, call Lao Ge to go back on the road, and say to the two guys lightly: "I know about this, the team that robbed the goods Last year, the eldest son was recruited." The guys believed it and didn't ask. Cheng Fengtai nestled in the car and thought angrily, at first he saw that Cao Simei was not a peaceful person, and he was afraid that he would cause trouble for Cao Guixiu and keep him by his side, but now it seems that these two people are a good match for each other because one is cruel and the other is cruel! Whoever bites anyone in the future will do harm to the people!
Cheng Fengtai was on the way back with a big deal in mind, and Shang Xirui was in Beiping, also facing a big deal. Shang Longsheng called his younger brother to the house in Luogu Lane, the two brothers were talking over a pot of tea, the weather was lightly raining, there were strange men coughing and women whispering in the bedroom, Shang Xirui stared at the door pattering Yusi was silent for a long time, pretending to be deaf while not being deaf. Si Xier finally died of madness. When he was alive, Li Yuan Xing gave some help but nothing. He thought he was a bottomless hole. When he died, the Liyuan community would treat him solemnly, and wanted to make arrangements for him. As for who would preside over the funeral, probably because of the cost, everyone was quite modest. What Shang Longsheng meant was to ask Shuiyunlou to stand out. Shang Xirui didn't answer, he didn't want to. With what Si Xier did, Shang Xirui would hand him a steamed bun when he was in trouble, it would be considered as an act of kindness, any more friendship would be lost.
Shang Longsheng said: "I know, with Si Xi'er's human nature, you have suffered a lot from being in Peiping these few years." Shang Xirui sniffed and did not speak. Shang Longsheng said: "It's not for him, it's for me." Shang Xirui turned his head to look at Shang Longsheng suspiciously, Shang Longsheng was sitting upright with his legs wide and hands propped up. At this time, the bamboo curtain in the bedroom was lifted, and a fashionable woman with vermilion lips and pink face walked out. The woman held a copper basin for washing in her hand, nodded slightly to Shang Xirui, and poured the residual water in the basin under the roots of the plum tree in the rain. Shang Xirui noticed with sharp eyes that the residual water in the basin was actually blood red, and when the woman turned around, he couldn't help but give her an attentive look. Shang Longsheng came to Peiping this time, it was strange, as if he was carrying out some secret operation, he left the merchant class in Tianjin, claiming that he went to his younger brother to go to the acupuncture point, but he seldom went on stage, and rarely met Shang Xirui . Living alone in an empty house in Nanluoguxiang, spending a lot of money, at that time Shang Xirui heard a woman's voice in the house, it must be the one in front of him, but now, there should be something hidden in the house one wounded. Shang Xirui walked across the rivers and lakes, Shang Long's voice could not hide him.
Shang Longsheng didn't intend to hide it from him, and said directly: "A brother violated the taboo of the Japanese and hid with me. I want to take advantage of Si Xi'er's funeral and let him get out of the city among the crowd."
Shang Longsheng's chivalry is recognized by Liyuanxing, and this is not the first time he is willing to take risks for his brothers. The business style is like this, Shang Xirui did his part, thought for a while and said: "I have to meet people first." Hearing this, the people in the room asked the young woman to open the bamboo curtain to wait. Shang Xirui lifted up his long gown and went in. A sick man was half lying on the bed, first he folded his hands and smiled weakly at him: "Shang Lang, we haven't seen each other for a long time."
Hearing this voice was an old acquaintance, Shang Xirui was speechless to return the courtesy, there were too many people coming and going in front of him, and now he doesn't remember the name of this person at all. Due to injuries, this man's pale face was thin and out of shape, his voice was hoarse, and he didn't know what he should know, but he couldn't hide his bookish and official air, calm and stable, as if everything was well planned. Shang Xirui didn't remember this face, but he was familiar with it, he was always surrounded by literati and officials.
Shang Longsheng didn't explain the details of this person, but only said: "I taught him to pretend to be Si Xi'er's nephew, you don't have to worry about the funeral, we will take care of it all, but we just use the name of Shuiyun Tower to suppress it. When the time comes to carry the coffin back to the hometown, I will go with him."
Shang Xirui never paid much attention to mundane affairs, after he was deaf, he opened his eyes even more, knowing that there were many doubts, he didn't bother to pursue them, nodded and said: "Brother can arrange it, I can manage enough people and money." Before leaving, The man on the bed thanked Shang Lang sincerely, but Shang Xirui still couldn't remember who he was.
Shuiyun Tower came forward to organize Si Xier's funeral, and sure enough, it attracted a lot of gossip, saying that Shang Xirui had a bad relationship with Si Xier, but in order to gain the glory of the dead, he pretended to be affectionate, too famous. In fact, it is very easy to subdue these little people who love to chew their tongues, but it is just to give them more benefits and treat them extra politely. Shang Xirui has lent out countless amounts of money and has no airs to others, but he becomes stubborn about this, he refuses to let them take advantage of it, refuses to show color. On the day of Si Xi'er's funeral, the sky was sunny and sunny, and Si Xi'er's false nephew was dressed in a filial piety hat, and he was crookedly supported by Shang Longsheng. natural. Shang Xirui hung his face, followed behind without humming, really like a dead relative, no one dared to confront him, except the Jiang family who were eager to try. The Jiang family had no intention of hosting the funeral, but the Jiaoshuiyun Tower took over over seniority, the old man Jiang felt very uncomfortable, he would find something to vent his anger on, poked his head out of the sedan chair to call Shang Xirui, and found fault with him for cigarettes or water. Niu Baiwen stepped forward to serve him: "Tell me what the old man wants." Mr. Jiang waved him away: "Just leave my place alone and ignore me, right?" . Uncle Jiang couldn't see it, he pushed Shang Xirui's shoulder angrily: "Boss Shang, what a big air! Do you still have elders in your eyes!"
Shang Xirui turned his head, pointed to his ear, and waved his hand: "Master! You're right, I'm deaf!" Like all deaf people, he spoke very loudly, which attracted the attention of colleagues around him, who thought it was Uncle Jiang's narrow-mindedness, It's hard for Shang Xirui to expose the shortcomings in person. Uncle Jiang was ashamed and stunned for a while, Shang Xirui took the lead and walked forward, Yang Baoli and other young actors passed by Uncle Jiang, and laughed softly: "Call the deaf and beat the dumb, pick off the old lady's underpants Son!" On this occasion, Uncle Jiang couldn't be serious with the juniors in public, so he could only stare with anger.
The funeral procession went to the city gate, guarding the Japanese soldiers as usual. Niu Baiwen stepped forward to negotiate, and the Japanese soldiers felt unlucky looking at the mournful faces. After a general inspection, they should be released. Unexpectedly, the wolfhounds in their hands sniffed around the coffin twice, and then pounced on the coffin. Jumping down and barking wildly, the Japanese soldiers became suspicious, and even smashed the lid of the coffin with the handle of the gun, and proposed to open the coffin for inspection. As soon as the translator said the words, the trip to Liyuan was blown up. This person bullied others to the end, he was nothing more than humiliating his wife and digging a grave, face to face today, within the walls of Beiping City, he actually wanted to pry open the coffin board of the Liyuan children!
Shang Longsheng slapped the lid of Sixi'er's coffin with a slap, and turned his murderous eyes to the Japanese soldiers: "Who dares to be presumptuous!" Following the words, several tall military students came forward and tucked the hem of their robes into their belts , It seems that it is ready to attack at any time. The people they performed on stage, not to mention their actual martial arts skills, but those who are good at it are imposing. Just this staring and putting on a pose is enough to make the Japanese soldiers nervous. The Japanese soldiers yelled, clattered and clacked their rifles, and those wolfhounds were also aggressive, jumping and barking, barking as they came to Chu Qionghua and wanted to pounce on him. Chu Qionghua exclaimed, and went straight behind Shang Xirui, Shang Xirui didn't dodge, slowly lowered his head and looked at the dog, wondering what kind of horrible smell was in his eyes, the dog groaned and fell down. It rang.
The false cousin was not moved by the tense situation in front of him, instead he kept looking at Shang Xirui in deep thought, seeing that Shang Xirui scared the big dog to the ground, he also smiled, and then stepped forward to whisper a few words with Shang Longsheng talk. Shang Longsheng glanced at Shang Xirui, with an expression of unbearable expression on his face, couldn't help being driven by righteousness, and finally called Shang Xirui for a private talk. Shang Xirui's obedient demeanor in front of him really makes people feel distressed, how could he be so open as a brother, he is so righteous to others, he has two ribs, how could he become a brother when he comes to his brother A debt collector? After holding back his energy for a long time, he was still speechless. The fake nephew said decisively from behind Shang Longsheng: "Shang Lang must help, if I don't leave the city today, I'm afraid I won't have the chance to leave the city in the future."
Shang Xirui said: "I'll find a way for you."
The fake nephew looked at the coffin: "I'm thinking about a solution, I'm afraid the things inside are not easy."
Shang Xirui heard the meaning, suddenly turned to look at Shang Longsheng, and asked: "Isn't Si Xi'er in the coffin?"
Shang Longsheng said: "It's not just Si Xi'er."
Shang Xirui's eyes widened and he waited for the next sentence, at this moment, Shang Longsheng and his fake nephew looked at each other, only to confess: "There are also penicillin, morphine, and quinine in it."
Shang Xirui has been with Cheng Fengtai for a long time, the first thing he thought of was smuggling, he heard from Cheng Fengtai that now penicillin in the black market is more expensive than gold, and more profitable than selling opium. But Shang Xirui didn't believe that Shang Longsheng would do this business, the people in the business didn't care much about money, and would never spend all this time and take the risk to make money.
Shang Longsheng saw through Shang Xirui's doubts, his eyes were full of solemnity: "These medicines were shipped to the front line. Saner, this matter..."
Shang Xirui's heart tightened suddenly, a whistle blew in his ears, and Shang Long's words were lost. He turned around and walked quickly to the base of the city wall, supported the city wall with one hand, covered his ears with the other hand and tilted his head to pat, as if he wanted to pat the non-existent paste out of the ear hole, looking very anxious and painful. Shang Xirui was in a mess, feeling panic and fear, it would be great if it was smuggling! He mobilized all the high-ranking old friends in Beiping City, and going bankrupt would probably save Shang Longsheng's life. But if the Japanese follow through the vines and find out that the medicine is going to the front line, not to mention Shang Longsheng's head fell, the entire Liyuan Bank will also be implicated. Brother is confused! How could such a big event be done without telling him!
In the distance, Niu Baiwen came over anxiously, slapped his palms and said to the merchant brothers: "My lord, what time is it, I have an idea! The Japanese insist on opening the coffin, what is this? Let's sing again!" It's cheap, I never taught anyone to spoil it like this! It's too much to bully!" Niu Baiwen, such a good old man, couldn't help but feel resentful.
Shang Longsheng said: "Go back to the temple to stop the coffin, and we will discuss about the burial later." This sentence was said loudly, with a sense of determination, even Liyuanxing could hear it. The Jiang family and other actors who are not good with Shang Xirui sneered gloatingly, laughing at Shuiyunlou's incompetence. The false nephew was no longer calm at this time, and was about to object from a frown. Shang Long cut him off, cupped his hands and apologized: "Master nephew, the coffin of my cousin must be transported back to my hometown for you in the near future. It seems that it will not work today, and we will You have to take care of some living people, please be considerate!" He would rather the matter go to waste than let Shang Xirui make another sacrifice, Shang Xirui has suffered enough. Seeing Shang Longsheng's resolute attitude, the fake nephew had no choice but to admit it. Niu Baiwen nodded and sighed: "That's the only way to go. It's better to be useless than to offend the souls of the dead. I'll go and tell them, go back the same way!" They thought of talking to the Liyuan colleagues, talking to the Japanese translator, and talking to the Japanese translator. The idlers who watched the fun said that they alone forgot to tell Shang Xirui. Firstly, he didn't notice that Shang Xirui was deaf and couldn't hear the decision they just made. Secondly, Shang Xirui is not a man in charge, even when he has good ears and eyes, it is useless to discuss with him. So Shang Xirui, who was forgotten by them, drew his sword and stood up: "Don't open the coffin! No one is allowed to move!" Then he pushed through the crowd, came to the translator first, and said, "I want to see Jiu Tiao and Ma!"
As soon as this remark came out, Liyuan was in an uproar.
