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

Now that things have come to this, it's better for everyone to speak frankly. Su Bai has nothing to say. In the past few days since the Second Madam came back, she has already had a general understanding of Su Bai's network of relationships, which is the strength of the garrison battalion, plus the Kong Mansion Guards who she had won over with food subsidies.

Su Bai continued to anger the Second Wife in order to make her reveal her cards first.

The second wife was very confident and she was not afraid that Su Bai would know her cards.

Since Su Bai had already guessed that she was rescued by Xu Laohei, she readily admitted it.

There are more than 300 people on Xu Laohei's Shili Peak, and he is the strongest among the three bandit gangs in Siling Mountain. In addition to Xu Laohei, he also has the Kong Family Army.

The Kong Family Army she was referring to was Yang Huasen's Kong Family Anti-Rebellion Army. A few days after Yang Huasen's mutiny, he changed the name of his army twice. When he first went up the mountain, it was the Kong Family Anti-Rebellion Army, and a few days later it was changed to the New Kong Family Army, and now it is simply called the Kong Family Army.

What’s important is that when Yang Huasen first went up the mountain, it was Xu Laohei who gave him an excellent place to garrison within his sphere of influence.

Not to mention that the Second Wife and Yang Huasen had known each other for many years. As early as when he was a bodyguard for the master, he would personally protect the Second Wife every time she went out.

Before going up the mountain, Yang Huasen robbed the supply warehouse in Linhua and brought a large amount of supplies including weapons, bags and food up the mountain. He also gave Xu Laohei a batch of guns and cannons, which greatly increased Xu Laohei's strength. Not only was he the largest bandit in the history of the Siling bandits, he was also the only bandit with artillery.

"If I let Deputy Commander Yang take down Long Xing, with his more than 1000 men and Lao Hei's more than 300 men, do you think the garrison battalion with only more than 400 soldiers without heavy weapons can hold on?" The second wife was so excited that there was actually a smile on her face.

"Deputy Commander Yang? Who is the commander?"

The second wife glanced at Su Bai proudly: "What do you think?"

"Are you the commander-in-chief?"

"It should be called the Commander-in-Chief!"

Su Bai didn't believe it and thought the second wife was bragging.

But what she said was not completely unreasonable. The reason why Yang Huasen called himself deputy commander was out of loyalty to Mr. Kong, so he did not dare to sit in the commander's position.

The commander-in-chief is a dead ghost and a spiritual leader, and the second wife is the spokesperson for this dead ghost.

But there is one thing Su Bai believes, that Yang Huasen is willing to listen to what the Second Wife says.

"Do you think this is the end?" Seeing that Su Bai was not as tough as before, the second wife continued to show off that she had another trick that could allow her to remain safe and sound even if she had a complete falling out with Su Bai.

Once she and Su Bai are ready to fight to the death, Su Bai will definitely be the one to die.

At that time, Kong Chen and Kong Li will definitely be the ones to judge the case. Before they return to the Kong Mansion, Kong Dai will have to step forward to control the Kong Mansion at this critical moment.

The second wife’s trick is very simple. She will tell everyone that she has also been deceived by Su Bai.

She has redesigned a story about how she went to Tianjin and then to Dongying, and she herself was also a victim.

Many details were also designed. For example, on the second day after Su Bai entered the mansion, Doctor Jiang came to take her pulse. She saw with her own eyes that Su Bai secretly stuffed something into Doctor Jiang's pocket. She didn't take it seriously at the time, but later she realized that she wanted Doctor Jiang to take a false pulse for her fake pregnancy.

In this case, it would be natural to kill Dr. Jiang and silence him later.

Not only that, she had done something before. After taking Su Bai away, she asked Su Bai's uncle to leave Dongying. Even if someone went to investigate, they would not be able to find her uncle.

Su Bai truly felt that it was possible to confuse right and wrong in this way.

"Do you think anyone will believe what you say?" Su Bai asked the second wife.

But the Second Madam didn't expect anyone to believe her immediately. What she wanted was to arouse suspicion. As long as Kong Chen and Kong Li were half-believing and half-doubting, they would not kill anyone. Before they figured it out, the Second Madam would have no problem escaping from the Kong Mansion or letting Xu Laohei and Yang Huasen attack or sneak attack Long Xing.

Moreover, with Xu Laohei and Yang Huasen, the second wife no longer needs Su Bai to seize the Kong family's property.

It was because of the existence of this plan of taking the blame for the eldest young lady that she was afraid.

She was bragging. Even if Xu Laohei and Yang Huasen captured Longxing City, Kong Li's army would arrive within half a day.

This is just a trick to scare children.

The Second Wife's proud showdown did make Su Bai feel that he was at a disadvantage from the very beginning of the fight with her, but her superfluous boasting made Su Bai feel that she was not as confident as she said, and she did not want to break up with him, or rather, she did not dare to break up with him easily.

Although she said it easily, in fact, it was very risky for her to fall out.

"As long as you don't cause me any trouble, I will hand over the Kong Mansion to you within half a year." Su Bai took the lead in offering the conditions.

The second wife did not accept it. She thought Su Bai had no right to negotiate with her because she bought Su Bai with her own money.

"You gave all the assets of the Kong Mansion to Kong Chen, and I haven't settled the accounts with you yet!"

"The military expenditure is nearly 3 a month. Are you going to take it?" Su Bai told her that this was the case before the war started. Once the war started, even 4 would not be enough.

The combined income of all the properties in the Confucius Mansion was only more than 2 yuan. According to the master's will, it was not enough to cover three years of military expenses even if all the concubines and daughters were sold.

“You can’t give it to Kong Chen either!” The second wife once again showed her arrogant attitude.

"It's already like this, I can't give it to you. Go and get it back, and I'll give you the entire Kong Mansion!" At this point, Su Bai suddenly gave her a warning: "I'll hand over the Kong Mansion tomorrow. How much do you think you can get?"

The second wife remained silent. Indeed, if Su Bai gathered everyone together and asked them to hand over the property of the Kong Mansion, the fourth concubine, who had the support of Kong Li, would be the biggest beneficiary.

In fact, Su Bai had thought about this problem a few days ago. Once his pharmaceutical business has taken off and he no longer needs to rely on the Kong Mansion's place and wealth, after he leaves, the Kong Mansion will eventually fall into the hands of the Fourth Concubine.

While the Second Wife was still not able to react, Su Bai told her another truth: the Fourth Wife had already planned to abort the baby in her belly.

Therefore, the second wife's idea of ​​taking over all the Kong family's property by herself was just a dream. Before Kong Li helped the fourth wife to take over the Kong family's property, she could only try her best to make more money, and forget about the Kong family's real estate.

The second wife rolled her eyes for a long time, but she seemed to have no good idea. "Let me think about it. From this month on, you have to give me two thousand dollars a month."

"Are you crazy? The combined income of the Kong Mansion's several branches is only over 2,000. If you take it away, will the people in the Kong Mansion be left with nothing?"

"I don't care what they say, it's just two thousand!"

Only then did Su Bai realize that this second wife was also a good material for being a bandit.

"Okay, you can take 5,000. See if Xu Laohei or Yang Huasen is willing to give it to you. Go ask them. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first!"

Su Bai got up and left.

"Come back here!" The Second Madam chased out and just as she grabbed Su Bai's arm, Zi Yan ran in from the Third Courtyard in a panic: "Madam, it's bad, the Second Master is back!"
