Zhu Tian: The Fiery Years Begin with Taking Qin Huairu as a Concubine

Chapter 196 The Money is Gone
It will only take a moment!

Chief Huang Shijun of the Patrol Department came running over on a sidecar with more than a dozen of his men.

Dispatch police immediately!
As soon as the sidecar stopped, Huang Shijun jumped off and shouted with a smile:

"Brother Kaiwu! What's wrong with you?"

The neighbors started to make a scene, and the two hooligans tried to attack Shopkeeper Zhang, but got beaten up instead.

Zhang Kaiwu handed over a Camel cigarette. After they both lit it up, he smiled and said:
"Brother Shijun! Yesterday I took Baofeng in as my maid and gave her 500 taels of silver as a settlement allowance. Who knew that she would go back and find out that her father died inexplicably. She also ran to me for help."

Zhang Kaiwu rubbed Baofeng's head next to him:

"Baofeng! Tell Chief Huang what happened yesterday!?"

"Just say whatever you want to say! Commander Huang will listen to your explanation, don't be afraid!"

Baofeng looked at the two people who had been tied up, one of whom was her uncle.

Baofeng hugged him and cried, gritting her teeth and said:

"I came back with the resettlement allowance given by the master yesterday, and they robbed me of my money, killed my father, and wanted to sell me to a brothel."

"Today I found a way to escape and asked the master to help me!"

Ok!

There are too many loopholes in this statement, but it doesn’t matter!

Just make the meaning clear!

Brother Huang Shijun is a smart man and should understand.

Fight until death!

Zhang Kaiwu patted her and said with a smile:

"Baofeng! Stop crying, it will be fine once the matter is made clear!"

"Little Flower Girl! You hold her up well."

Baofeng's uncle and the man had been tied up and gagged.

They were so anxious that they jumped up and down. It was so unfair!

They just ate the whole family, they didn't kill anyone!

what a shame!

There were so many neighbors watching the fun, but no one came out to say a word of justice for them.

I just sold my cousin's daughter, what's the big deal?!

How did it get involved in murder and robbery?

One or two hundred men and women, young and old, were all there laughing and enjoying the fun!

Zhang Kaiwu said to Huang Shijun with a smile:
"Money is actually a small matter! Their behavior is too bad. One of them is even her uncle, and he wants to sell her to a brothel!"

"Brother Shijun! I don't want the money. It's not worth it to make a trip for such a small amount of money. Just handle the matter impartially."

Huang Shijun said with a smile:
"Brother! Don't worry! We will definitely investigate this heinous case thoroughly."

"You are too busy now! The newspapers are talking about your contributions every day. You can't be busy with work every day. You should go back to Zhima Hutong to play when you have time!"

Zhang Kaiwu rubbed Xiao Baofeng's head and said with a smile:

"Of course! I'll definitely have time. I'm too busy today, otherwise I'd treat you to a drink today!"

Huang Shijun said goodbye with a smile and led his men to withdraw.

Zhang Kaiwu ran over to take a look and saw Baofeng's father still leaning on the floor beside the bed.

The cause of death was malnutrition, irregular lifestyle, and sudden death after catching a cold and having a high fever without treatment.

It was estimated that Baofeng did not have the strength to help the person up, and she failed to pull the person up halfway, and her uncles and others were not interested in helping her.

Zhang Kaiwu put him on the bed, then came out to smoke and wait for someone.

Someone from the coffin shop also came and helped Baofeng's father calm down and change his clothes.

Baofeng asked for the cheapest coffin made of thin willow wood, and asked the funeral attendant to help her put the body into the coffin. Then they took the coffin out of the city in a horse-drawn carriage to bury the body.

Zhang Kaiwu paid for the burial and stood outside smoking and chatting with neighbors.

Xiaohua helped settle the rent with the landlord and gave all the junk in the house to the neighbors.

Baofeng packed a small bag and got a set of clothes to change into.

After everything was settled at home, Zhang Kaiwu took them into the car and went to the mass grave to identify the graves.

Xiaohua sat in the jeep and watched Baofeng's father being buried. She silently watched what happened to Baofeng today, as if she saw another herself.

If she had not met Brother Kaiwu and had not had her father cured by Brother Kaiwu, her situation would probably not have been much better.

They are all at the mercy of others!

Even Xiaohua is not as good as Baofeng, because Baofeng's father died quickly, which is also a very big advantage!
happy!

After Baofeng buried her father, Wuyou Wuxi lit three incense sticks and kowtowed three times without shedding even a tear.

Maybe! She had thought of this day a long time ago.

Perhaps Baofeng had thought about this countless times when her father was ill.

Maybe she is just a little girl, not a filial son or grandson, so it is not her turn to cry at the grave!

It was a great opportunity for Baofeng to be able to bury her father decently and give him a thin coffin!
Meet a noble person.

.....................

Zhang Kaiwu, holding a Camel cigarette in his mouth, sat in the jeep, watching Baofeng climb up and take them back.

Even if nothing happened between Zhang Kaiwu and her, this girl has already accepted her fate?
Baofeng's energy value increased by 500 at once. This is probably the real way to survive from a desperate situation! ?
A strange thing happened. Whose energy value was that 200 points last time?
Could it be that Madam Yan?

After returning to Qianmen Street, Zhang Kaiwu took Chen Xueru and the others with him and took them back together.

As soon as Chen Xueru got in the car, she comforted Baofeng, telling her to live a peaceful life and that her family would not treat her unfairly in the future.

Baofeng immediately started laughing and kept calling her "Madam~Madam", and it was hard to tell at all that her father had just died.

It is estimated that Chen Xueru and the others have heard about Zhang Kaiwu beating someone up. Chen Xueru and Xu Huizhen comforted Baofeng.

It's okay! Life will get better in the future!

Lin Xiaoniang looked at him with seductive eyes, probably admiring his style of beating people, and slapped him so hard that he flew three meters away.

Zhang Kaiwu wanted so much that he wanted to stop the car and beat her up first!
But! This woman is not afraid of being beaten!

………………

Back inside.

Xiaohua took Baofeng to wash up thoroughly. Her figure was similar to that of her sister-in-law before.

Her sister-in-law gave her all her old clothes. She changed into a set of her sister-in-law's beautiful clothes and put on a maid outfit.

Baofeng was very happy to dress her up beautifully.

As soon as she had some free time, Baofeng ran to the kitchen to help prepare meals and was busy with washing and cleaning.

It’s still early to cook.

Qin Huairu and Su Xiaoyao quickly ran to the kitchen, each holding a vegetable in their hands, looking at each other, wondering if they would lose their jobs this time! ?
………………

Zhang Kaiwu was checking accounts with Wang Tiantian in the office and found that the research institute was now heavily in debt.

The research institute owed the Agricultural Bank of China a huge sum of 1.4 million oceans.

There is nothing to worry about, as the city government will pay for it.

There were other expenses, too. In order to buy the things for the factory and pay the deposit, Zhang Kaiwu had already paid more than 300,000 yuan.

Such a large research institute can't even pay its employees' salaries! ?

What if the salary is not paid and the buyer Qin Huairu goes on strike?! ?
Even I don’t have any salary?

Zhang Kaiwu said worriedly:

"Tian Tian! We are at the end of our rope. Call Principal Wang and ask for help."

"Let them come over for dinner tonight, and we'll all think of a solution together, if that doesn't work!?"

"I took the staff from the institute, holding bowls, and my classmates, holding medical boxes, and went to the city hall to collect donations!"

Wang Tiantian quickly gave him a kiss and said with a smile to comfort him:

"Brother Kaiwu! Don't worry! I'll call Principal Wang right away and cry poor to Principal Zhou and the others!"

Zhang Kaiwu rubbed her, and Tian Tian's buttocks had grown some flesh.

Nai also curled up.

It feels much better!

Wang Tiantian is a sensible and good girl. She knows that food and fodder must be sent before troops move out!
...............

To entertain guests and leaders.

Zhang Kaiwu ran to the lake, spread a pile of fermented fish food, picked up the fishing rod and started fishing. Less than 20 minutes later, four old men came running over.

When they met, Dean Wang asked:

"Kaiwu! Didn't you just get the money yesterday? Did you spend almost four million in one go? "

Dean Zhu was embarrassed to ask, so Dean Zhou quickly asked:

"Are you guys going to buy planes? You can buy a few of them!"

Wang Tiantian took the shopping list and her notebook and showed them to them beside the lake.

Dean Zhou and a few old men looked at it for a while and realized that this was not just some flowers and plants, but a serious order. They asked in confusion:

"Kaiwu! Why did you buy all this stuff!? Most of them are just materials and stuff, there's no need for them!"

Zhang Kaiwu smiled and blew a circle of smoke, then lit a Camel cigarette.

Then he said calmly:

"Look at this lake. There's a large open space to the east. Maybe about 20 acres?"

Dean Gong said hurriedly:

"That's not the land of the medical school. Are you going to build a house there?"

Zhang Kaiwu said with a smile:
"No hurry! No hurry! Just listen to what I have to say before you ask questions or give opinions."

Several old men, smoking cigarettes, looked at him silently.

Zhang Kaiwu said with a smile:
"What do you think about setting up an experimental penicillin processing plant in our school? It can be used to meet the needs of the hospital."

"Students can not only conduct experiments and study medicinal properties in it, but also learn other skills and accumulate experience."

"Think about it, even if other pharmaceutical factories produce penicillin, how much can they produce? The whole world is short of penicillin. Do we have to beg others to get it?"

Dean Zhou and his colleagues were immediately moved by Zhang Kaiwu's words. Just like ordinary sulfonamides, the production in Shanghai has been calculated in dozens of tons, and it is sometimes available in the hospital.

Two dollars a pill!
The cost is only ten pills for one copper coin.

What's more, it's a better penicillin! ?
Is there a shortage of it all over the world now?

The cost of penicillin production in the United States has dropped from more than 300 US dollars per bottle to one US dollar per bottle today.

It doesn’t mean that you can buy the product for one dollar at the beginning. Now the price of two small yellow croakers is sixty dollars!
The problem is that you can't buy it.

Those merchants have produced products, so don’t they just sell to whoever offers the highest price?!
All the products that are not well produced are exported to make money.

Will I have to ask for help then?!
Our medical school invented penicillin extraction, but in the end we had to go out and buy it at a high price. How could we save our reputation?!

Even if we don’t do business, we can still build a bigger laboratory and produce some for our own use! ?
His idea is very good!
Let students learn and experiment with medicinal properties by doing.

Zhang Kaiwu said with a smile:
"Anyway, we are doing research in the laboratory. We are not setting up a factory to compete with others for profits. My laboratory is just a little bigger. I can't just take the laboratory by-products and not use them, right?"

"I just accepted a little slave girl named Baofeng today because her father died of a high fever last night!"

"A simple cold, coupled with her physical weakness, took her father's life. Her uncle came and wanted to sell her to a brothel."

"If penicillin was cheaper, this situation could be cured with just one injection. But now her father is dead!"

"Sister Xiaohua, you all know what she went through. Her father had simple pneumonia and there was no penicillin. Before he met me, he dragged her family down and pushed them to a dead end!"

Dean Gong was more emotional and said excitedly:

"Let's do it! Building a better laboratory in our school is also a good thing for the country and the people."

Dean Zhou smiled and said:

"It is only natural for us to build a bigger laboratory. This is also an inspiration for our hospital system. If you don't approve it, we will ask all hospitals in the country to go on strike."

Dean Zhu smiled and said:

"Of course we can build a bigger laboratory! Kaiwu is a kind-hearted young man with a pure heart!"

Dean Wang stroked his beard, which was missing a piece due to Wang Tiantian's tugging, and said with a smile:

"That's right! Our Tian Tian is also a good child, gentle and virtuous. You should stop thinking about work all day long and have a child soon!"

"Once you guys have completed the order tomorrow, we will apply for funding right away. At the very least, we will reimburse the money you have advanced. We can't let you lose money!"

Zhang Kaiwu was fishing with a few old men with a smile on his face, and casually talked to Wang Tiantian about applying for the land.

We will find a construction team tomorrow and start preparing to enclose that piece of land to build a laboratory.

Build the wall first, then level the land.

We are not afraid if they don’t give us the land. We will occupy it first and then talk about it later. If anyone dares to cause trouble, we will let the students take their jobs and surround the gate of the Nationalist Government.

Ha ha ha ha ha!
Zhang Kaiwu had an inspiration today. He wanted to show off his skills and prepare two tables of food for them in the evening.

Dean Zhou quickly made another phone call and asked his granddaughter and her family to come over for dinner.

The only good news for Qin Huairu and Su Xiaoyao today:

Sister Baofeng did a lot of work and she ate a lot too, she ate two big bowls of rice in a row.

Seeing that she was still able to eat, Zhang Kaiwu stopped her with a smile.

I was afraid that she had been hungry for too long and would die of overeating!
Before going to bed at night, Zhang Kaiwu held a cigarette in his mouth, played with four big walnuts, and watched Qin Huairu and Emile play games.

Baofeng ignored the electric fan next to her, blushed, and forced herself to fan him with the fan.

Zhang Kaiwu said with a smile:
"Baofeng! You go to bed first. I go to bed late."

Baofeng blushed and said in a stubborn voice:
"Master! How can a servant go to bed first? I'm not sleepy!"

Maybe she was still afraid in her heart, so Zhang Kaiwu was too lazy to persuade her.

Rubbing her little head, Baofeng fanned herself, hugged his feet, and fell asleep in a daze.

Zhang Kaiwu gently pulled her hand away and sneaked into the little demon girl's room again...

Watch the little gentlemen perform the splits.

.....................

the next morning.

Zhang Kaiwu was practicing farming tricks, with a professional little girl cheering him on next to him.

The little girl probably hasn't recovered from her fear yet, and she's following him like a little tail.

Baofeng was holding a fan and shouting:

"Master! Good!"

"it is good!"

When Zhang Kaiwu went to wash up, Baofeng quickly slipped in and washed and rubbed his back.

When Zhang Kaiwu finished his breakfast, he saw the Song sisters, who were visiting with their twin sisters.

Song Fuzhi, Song Fuhui, and even Xiaojiu and Wei Xiaohui came over. The group of people were chatting and laughing in the living room.

Talking about science!

Huairu and Xiaoyao brought a pot of coffee and ran away immediately. They felt a headache after hearing this.

Song Fuzhi asked with a smile:
"Senior! What are you doing at home these days? Are you doing research on erythromycin or further research on penicillin!?"

"Have you started the cultivation of erythromycin in your laboratory?"

Zhang Kaiwu said with a smile:
"Junior Fuzhi! Research work can't be done so quickly. I've been preparing materials and preparing the site these days."

Song Fuzhi said with emotion:

"That's what you're like, senior. You're busy working every day! Your behavior is something that other students should learn from."

Zhang Kaiwu said with a smile:
"No, no! I am a hard-working person and I set strict standards for myself, just like Principal Hu said."

"Have a plan! Be self-disciplined!"

Wei Xiaohui was confused as to what she heard and felt sleepy all of a sudden.

Zhang Kaiwu actually felt very tired as well. He was not good at this kind of meaningless conversation where people kept exchanging pleasantries.

After rubbing the sleepy Wei Xiaohui, he pulled her over and pressed her down, and then let her start practicing her drinking skills out of surprise.

Looking at the silly Wei Xiaohui, she looked at him with admiration and a smile.

If the feelings are deep, take a sip; if the feelings are shallow, just lick it!
Song Fuzhi looked at him and said with a smile:

"Why don't you just let others do those things? Senior, you need to focus on the main points of your work!"

Zhang Kaiwu leaned on the sofa, holding a Camel cigarette in his mouth, pinching Wei Xiaohui's little face, and said seriously:

"Junior! My lab is currently under construction, and part of it will be completed soon. Hmm! Hmm!"

"What a shame! The funding chain is broken now. The school is negotiating now. It will be ready in ten days or half a month, and we can continue the construction. Great!"

Song Fuzhi: "Ah!" She asked quickly:
"How come the funding chain is broken all of a sudden? Wasn't the funding just allocated?"

Ha ha ha ha ha!
The two sisters are daughters of wealthy families and have no idea how hard it is to get things done.
