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

Chapter 200 Troubled Times
Zhang Kaiwu looked at the noisy street, smiled, patted his shoulder, and said:

"Maybe you're not making as much as you're losing. You're not wrong to say that!"

but!

Shopkeeper Niu, you look so excited, do you want to take the money and go to the brothel to have fun?

I see you are quite happy! ?
Businesses were closed everywhere. Some grain shops were surrounded by people and the doors could not be closed.

The shopkeeper immediately raised the price by one half, but he couldn't resist the customers' enthusiastic desire to buy.

I just received this banknote and it has shrunk by half! ?

The Patrol Department was busy everywhere, on guard against people looting food and supplies.

Huang Shijun's sidecar was running so fast that smoke was almost coming out of it. When he saw Zhang Kaiwu's jeep, he didn't even have time to get off to chat. He just waved, said hello, and drove away.

I chatted with the shopkeeper Niu for a while, smoked a cigarette, and declined his invitation to visit the brothel.

Seeing that he also went back to close the door, Zhang Kaiwu returned to the car.

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

Chen Xueru sat in the jeep and looked at the chaotic city of Peking.

Everywhere there were people holding banknotes and trying to buy things, and everywhere there were soldiers collecting gold and silver.

She looked at all this with concern and asked:

"Brother Kaiwu! When will things calm down? Are we going to continue this business?"

Zhang Kaiwu rubbed her with one hand and said with a smile:

"Don't worry! Let them make trouble. One day, things will calm down. Then you can open a shop."

Xu Huizhen secretly looked into the tavern and saw Mr. He being pushed down by a soldier and changing banknotes for them at the counter.

Looking at He Yongqiang hiding aside, watching the excitement with fear, and then looking at their jeep with fear.

The look of being afraid of this and that.

The drunkard suddenly woke up and suddenly realized how she had ever thought of marrying such a man! ?
I wanted to live my life just fine, but ended up being ruthlessly abandoned!
Zhang Kaiwu hailed the jeep, left Qianmen Street and returned to the medical school.

Chen Xueru took Lin Xiaoniang and Xiaojiuniang to go fishing. Lin Xiaoniang was not afraid of being beaten, and Xiaojiuniang was not afraid of being beaten either.

Hehehehe! They are really asking for a beating.

Zhang Kaiwu, holding a cigarette in his mouth, walked towards the construction site.

On the construction site inside the medical school, the men had already built the walls, occupied the land, and were busy building the houses.

This is a huge project, with a two-story factory building in the middle, a four-story staff dormitory next to it, as well as a warehouse and a generator room, all of which are of high standards.

As long as the medical school pays their wages in corn, they will work there until the end of time.

From time to time, there were delivery cars, camel and horse teams, and large convoys delivering goods to the medical school.

The cars were delivered by a company from the United States, the large convoy was delivering corn from the Taiping Granary, and the camel caravan was from the coal company.

Qin Huairu and Su Xiaoyao held up a large parasol and directed the unloading and signing.

After being busy for a while, the two of them looked like they were eating the emperor's food.

Qin Huairu also realized her dream. Wearing a white coat and a nurse's hat, she loudly directed the unloading and asked them to move the goods to the designated location.

After finishing, we hid under the parasol to drink tea, crack melon seeds and chat.

Zhang Kaiwu walked over and sat down. Su Xiaoyao quickly poured him a cup of tea and stood beside him massaging his shoulders.

Maybe she developed feelings for her work, she said with a smile:

"Brother Kaiwu! The goods will be arriving soon. What kind of work will we do in the future?"

Zhang Kaiwu rubbed her, flipped through the delivery note, and said with a smile:

"Don't worry! You will be very busy in the future, and we will need your help in many important tasks!"

Qin Huairu said with a smile:
"Brother Kaiwu! What's the important work?"

Zhang Kaiwu rubbed her and said with a smile:
"If we want to use these things in the future, don't we have to go through a claiming procedure? We need someone to supervise and manage them."

"If the institute lacks anything in the future, won't you still have to call us?"

"Don't worry! You are the most important warehouse keepers in the penicillin laboratory. You will definitely be paid by the emperor in the future. Sister Huairu! If you do a good job, you may even be able to become a section chief for a while!"

Qin Huairu said doubtfully:

"Brother Kaiwu! Can such a simple thing be called an important job? How can you become a section chief?"

Su Xiaoyao said with a smile:
"Sister Huairu! There is a key to this, and the key is to do it well! Kaiwu brother! Right!?"

Zhang Kaiwu rubbed the little demon and said with a smile:

"Sister Huairu! Whether the work is important or not is not up to you, it's up to the leader!"

"If I say you are important, then you are important. Even if you are not important, you are still important!"

"Besides! After the penicillin product comes out, there will be many people asking you for favors. But you better not get too cocky in the future."

Su Xiaoyao massaged his shoulders and said with a smile:

"Sister Huairu! Whether it's important or not, it all depends on the shopkeeper's words. Of course, this is what Brother Kaiwu said! A department requires everyone's hard work and cooperation, just like when we perform an opera!"

"There must be people beating drums, beating gongs, and performing operas on the stage, and there must be people cheering and creating atmosphere below the stage!"

Zhang Kaiwu said with a smile:
"You need a clown to bring out the beauty of the protagonist!"

Qin Huairu rushed over and shouted:

"Brother Kaiwu! You guys definitely didn't say anything nice. I'm going to fight you!"

Zhang Kaiwu held her with one hand and looked at the time. The cargo had been unloaded.

Pulling them back, he said with a smile:
"Let's go back and fight. I want to see if wearing white coats can enhance your fighting ability."

"Don't blame me for not reminding you. I'm really mad today! Don't regret it if I kill you."

Su Xiaoyao said with a smile:
"Come on, sister Huairu and I will teach you a lesson today!"

Qin Huairu said with a smile:
"Yes! We will fight you!"

Before going upstairs, Qin Huairu pulled Chen Xueru and others who were fishing together, and the few of them were ready to rebel.

The result is that everyone is miserable.

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

August 20th.

Early in the morning, after breakfast, the young ladies all hurried to school.

The four old men, along with Director Duan, came running over to find him again.

Zhang Kaiwu was practicing farming tricks with great vigor.

Dean Zhu smiled and said:

"Kaiwu! The city called us early this morning, saying that in this time of crisis, our medical school took the lead in destroying unity!"

"They said they were going to send a telegram to Nanjing to complain!"

Zhang Kaiwu was still fighting vigorously. If no one paid attention to him, President Zhu would be pulled back by others with moral principles.

Dean Wang said with a smile:
"Kaiwu! Or just forget it! It's always like this, it's embarrassing!"

Dean Zhou smiled and said:

"They have already apologized. It's for work."

Dean Gong did not try to persuade him, but sat next to him and smoked. He was in a better mood.

When Zhang Kaiwu finished washing up and came out to have breakfast.

He then said slowly:
"Does it matter who the city says is right or wrong? Has the food been allocated? Have those things been allocated?"

Dean Zhu smiled and said:

"They said they would send food tomorrow and asked us to admit the patients first."

"The grain in Beiping City is all Mayor Chen's business. It has nothing to do with the financial department or the bank."

Zhang Kaiwu was chewing on a bun and drinking cornmeal porridge, and asked:
"You want us to admit the patient first? Haha! Doesn't that mean we made a mistake? Let us let others take advantage of us!"

"We are not doing grain business to hinder his fortune, so who cares whose business it is? Have you gone outside to take a look?"

"The price of food has increased fivefold from yesterday to today. If this continues, will the doctors, nurses, students, professors and their families in the medical school still have food to eat?"

Dean Zhou smiled and said:

"Kaiwu! They usually deliver food on time and at a fair price, and each time they deliver half a month's supply."

Zhang Kaiwu smiled and said:

"Dean Zhou! What if their grain sells so well that they don't send it to us?"

Dean Wang said in surprise: "Impossible! How dare they do this?"

They may not dare to do so, but the food warehouse will be gone soon. What about the waste paper money? What will happen to the families of the nurses and doctors?

Zhang Kaiwu smiled and said:

"Let them deliver the food today, and we will take the patients in. If the food is not delivered today, we will continue to embarrass ourselves."

Dean Zhu said awkwardly:

"Kaiwu! Why do you have to make things so awkward? No matter what, we won't be starved!"

"Dean Zhu! That just means you won't starve. What about the nurses, students, and their families?"

"Take me, Zhang! I can eat and drink enough, but what about my more than ten concubines?"

Zhang Kaiwu continued to ask with a smile:
"Director Duan! How much food did you ask them for yesterday? As of this time today, the food has not been delivered to them even though it's only a dozen kilometers away and it's been almost a whole day?"

Director Duan said quickly:
"One thousand tons of wheat, one thousand tons of rice! I really don't want much. If they wanted to deliver the goods, they could have delivered it yesterday afternoon!"

After thinking about it, Zhang Kaiwu asked:
"President Zhu! Are you so sure they won't starve us because of the doctors from the Beautiful Country?"

"What if the doctor from the United States runs away? What should we do then?"

"Emile has already said that they might go to Nanjing soon, and then return to the United States. We will be starved by then, what can you do? "

Dean Zhu smiled awkwardly and said:

"We are all Doctors Without Borders, and the medical school is full of students. How dare they do this? We are not afraid of them."

Haha! Zhang Kaiwu said with a smile:

"You said they don't dare? Then Dean Zhu, explain to me, how dare others come to our medical school to confiscate the gold and silver? How dare others not send food to the medical school?"

"Call them. If the food is not delivered at noon today, throw all the patients out. Our hospital can't continue to operate."

"Since they are saying that we are destroying unity, then we will destroy it and see who will admit their mistakes first."

Dean Zhu and the others were still hesitating, Zhang Kaiwu smiled and said:

"You are not afraid of them causing trouble! But others don't take you seriously, so who do you think you are?"

"Notify the doctors and nurses, and inform all the patients in the hospital about this. Let them find a way to go to the foreign hospital for treatment."

Dean Wang said in surprise:

"Kaiwu! This has really gotten out of hand. If that happens, everyone will be at loggerheads and it will be hard to do our job in the future!"

Zhang Kaiwu smiled and asked:

"Dean Wang! Are you still fantasizing that there is no conflict? They should be able to control us!"

"How about we just go and beg others!? Beg others for food? Just hold a bowl and go begging?"

"The current situation is that whoever gives in first will be the one without reason. Why should we give in?"

"If you don't believe it, go ask the nurses down there and see if they would rather take paper money or food!?"

"Damn it! Everyone in the medical school is starving to death, and you old guys are still thinking about your dignity! Are you still thinking about the rules? "

"Complaining is a rare thing! You won't complain!?"

Seeing that Zhang Kaiwu was swearing, the four old men remained silent.

Zhang Kaiwu looked at Qin Huairu next to him and said:
"Sister Huairu! Go get a group of nurses and ask Dean Zhu and the others to ask them if they want money or food!?"

Qin Huairu glanced at the old men and muttered softly:

"Brother Kaiwu! Do you even need to ask? Only a fool would want that waste paper!"

The four old men looked at her awkwardly. “Aren’t you muttering too loudly?!”

Is it polite?
After a short while, Qin Huairu pulled a group of nurse sisters who were carrying boxes and running from the playground.

These nurses have a monthly salary of about ten yuan, but the hospital provides them with meals and clothes. Most of them are children of nearby residents.

How should I put it? When I was earning a lot of money, I was considered a very respectable white-collar worker in Beijing!

Looking at the nurses standing in a row, Zhang Kaiwu asked with a smile:

"Schoolgirls! The hospital will start distributing cash in the future. Would you rather take the affordable food bought in the hospital home, or take the cash home?"

A nurse sister said in surprise:

"Senior! Can we exchange it for food to support our family? Of course we will take the food!"

Another nurse sister said in surprise:

"Senior! Is this a benefit for the Ghost Festival? Didn't the Ghost Festival pass yesterday? Is there such a good thing?"

A nurse sister said:
"What can we do with a ten-dollar bill? The food outside is so expensive that we can't even feed one person. Of course we should get affordable food, but is that possible?"

Zhang Kaiwu said with a smile:
"How is it impossible? Aren't the dean and the others trying to find a way for you to get food back?"

The nurses were very excited when they heard that their salaries could be exchanged for affordable food.

The several principals who surrounded them expressed their gratitude and praised them for doing great things for the medical school.

Now the family should be able to have enough to eat!

Now my younger brother can get married!
I guess no one will starve to death this time!

Now they are not afraid anymore!

The old men blushed and ran away sighing.

Why not eat minced meat! ?

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

Dean Zhu sighed and went back to his office with a gloomy face. He called the city directly and informed them calmly:
"Mayor Chen! If we don't deliver the food to the medical school at noon today, we won't be able to do our work in the hospital."

"We will ask all those patients to leave this afternoon. You should find a way to pick them all up and send them off this afternoon. Our hospital will be closed for a while for repairs."

Mayor Chen on the other end of the phone said quickly:

"Dean Zhu! What do you mean?"

What a pity! The call has been hung up.

After finishing the phone call, Dean Zhu felt very happy deep down in his heart!
(I told you to control us, I don’t want to play with you anymore!)

Let Zhang Kaiwu evaluate:

These deans are really old and lack the hot temper!
In the medical school, you are naturally invincible and have an unbeatable golden body, but you are strangled by others with morality and rules!

Just as Zhang Kaiwu said, the medical school didn't give the city any face and kicked out all those patients, so what could the city do? ?

Even if he had ten times the courage, would he still send troops to attack?
Why should I, Zhang, have to follow the rules while others can't?

If I follow the rules, I will be bullied by others! ?
Ha ha ha ha ha!
Before noon, Mayor Chen of Peking had surrendered, and cartloads of food were brought into the medical school.

Director Duan and his colleagues were directing the loading of grain into the warehouse. Our hospital had finally won, and I felt inexplicably proud.

The hospital has returned to normal and patients are being admitted again.

The nurses below were extremely excited, and the young doctors also breathed a sigh of relief.

No matter how chaotic the situation is, there is food to eat!
Zhang Kaiwu got rid of his anger, and the people in the medical school also benefited.

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

Work is about to begin in the institute.

Zhang Kaiwu returned home and started tinkering, writing and drawing, trying to produce a third-level barrel for penicillin fermentation.

This thing that looks like a big teapot is not an easy job.

It looks like a big teapot, but it is actually a 200-plus gallon teapot, almost a one-ton fermentation tank.

The reason why he was so interested was just to practice his craft.

For Zhang Kaiwu, who has an attribute panel, every additional skill counts.

In the future, this big teapot will be fixed to the ground inside the factory and no one will be able to lift it.

There is a discharge port at the bottom, a feed port at the top, an inlet for filtering pure air, and an inlet for adding other trace elements.

There are many spouts on the big teapot, and a manual stirrer on the top. The whole structure is very complicated.

Unlike experiments, industrial production of penicillin is like growing vegetables.

A multiple transplantation process will result in a higher yield.

The process of making this fermentation tank was too difficult for him.

After hammering for a while, Zhang Kaiwu dropped his tools and went fishing.

Fishing is simple and relieves worries.

After a while, Huizhen came over and wanted to try fishing.
