Meng Wenjing was mentally prepared to go out and have lunch with Bai Zhi after A Yu's repeated urging.

Bai Zhi was eating by herself, and it was funny to see him not daring to raise his head.

"What? You feel dirty when you sit at the same table with me and eat?" she teased.

Only then did Meng Wenjing pick up the bowl nervously, not daring to look at Bai Zhi's face the whole time.

As soon as I took two mouthfuls of corn paste, I started coughing violently and couldn't stop for a while.

Bai Zhi hurriedly put down the bowl and chopsticks and patted his back to cheer him up.

Meng Wenjing couldn't bear it anymore. Her hands kept stroking his back, making him shudder with every touch. He suppressed his cough and was so suffocated that he died.

He pushed Bai Zhi away and blocked his nose with his other hand, telling her to leave it alone.

Bai Zhi had no choice but to sit back and continue eating.

It took a long time for Meng Wenjing to calm down, but when he saw Bai Zhi, his hair suddenly exploded.

"Why are you wearing my clothes?!" Meng Wenjing's normal face turned red again.

"Didn't you give this to me?" Bai Zhi thought of his streaking appearance last night and felt like laughing.

Meng Wenjing was so shocked that he couldn't say a word for a long time.

Seeing that he had stopped moving, Bai Zhi asked him funnyly, "You...do you want me to take it off and give it back to you? But I didn't bring any clothes with me. If I take them off, I won't have anything to wear..."

To die!

Meng Wenjing went crazy, what were he saying!

What to take off, what to wear, every word hit his shameless fantasy, and the blood in his body was flowing crazily somewhere.

If she knew what dirty things he had done in her bed, he would be shameless.

She must not let her know about this!

Meng Wenjing pretended to be calm, "Then...it's not necessary."

The two finished their meal in silence, and when they were clearing away the dishes, Bai Zhi said, "Don't go to Yinghong Mansion anymore. You are already weak. Drinking and visiting prostitutes is too dangerous for you."

When Meng Wenjing heard this, he was unhappy, "Everyone else can go, why can't I go?"

"You're not in good health! Besides, you don't like it!"

"Others can do it! So can I. I'm already in my twenties, and the other men have already started families!" Meng Wenjing refused to accept it.

What is this called! Belated rebellion? Release from repression? Or is it simply inexperienced?

Bai Zhi thought he was amusingly stupid and narrowed her eyes slightly.

After feeling this way for a moment, an alarm bell sounded in Bai Zhi's mind.

She feels like she is inducing minors to commit crimes!

This feeling was too dangerous, so she stopped her thoughts and stopped arguing with him.

Meng Wenjing was still dissatisfied, but she stopped talking, feeling uneasy and longing in her heart.

He couldn't keep his face down and continued to tease her, so he secretly fled back to the room.

Bai Zhi had nothing to gain from this pharmacy, so she packed everything and told A Yu repeatedly that she was ready to leave.

After grabbing the last medicine, she said goodbye to Meng Wenjing, "Doctor Meng, I won't come here anymore. Since Ayu has become your teacher, I would like to ask you to take care of me more!"

Meng Wenjing was shocked, "What? Not coming?"

"Yeah." Bai Zhi smiled lightly.

"I have redeemed your life, so you don't have to go to Yinghong Mansion anymore!" He said with hidden anger.

Bai Zhi shook her head gently, "I will pay you back the ransom money some other time. I still have my own things to do, so let's just say goodbye."

Meng Wenjing panicked immediately. He didn't understand, "But... you... you..."

He couldn't say a word, couldn't say that he wanted to support her.

Bai Zhi left him a last smile and walked out of the door carrying the package.

Meng Wenjing was stunned on the spot, not knowing what to do. Do you want to catch up?

Yes!

He chased him out, but there was no one in the alley.

Bai Zhi ran away. She felt that she was in some danger. She was actually craving for a feeling, a sense of security in a simple-minded person.

To her, this was nothing, but to people like Meng Wenjing, it was a point of no return.

He is not a free and easy person, and for him, indulgence comes at a huge price.

She didn't want to hurt him.

After getting the raw materials and funds, Bai Zhi set up a workshop and scattered the parts for producing guns in several places, in order to prevent others from easily mastering the manufacturing methods of weapons.

She began to recruit talents secretly, and also wanted to form her own armed force.

She asked Foreman Zhu to start recruiting wanderers in the north of Danning City, and then targeted a small village. They won the first battle of annexation with cold weapons.

Guns were out of reach under current production conditions, and the scrap rate after production was extremely high. She couldn't wait until she actually had a weapon before starting to get started.

She could only make weapons the faith and hope of their small force.

The annexation in the north of the city was proceeding in full swing but quietly, and she was also working overtime to get the workshop to produce weapons.

Today's guns are still made of bamboo tubes. Because the manufacturing process of metal copper tubes is far from sophisticated, a batch of simple guns can only be made using the most rustic techniques.

When it came to the final assembly process, she really couldn't trust anyone else, so she decided to do it in Yinghonglou.

It's time too.

On this day, she summoned all the people in Yinghonglou, and she announced openly, "From now on, we can no longer do the flesh and blood business in Yinghonglou!"

"No? Then what do we do for a living?" a girl asked.

Bai Zhi demonstrated the assembly process to them, "We will make a living from this from now on."

The girl, the turtle slave, and the servants all tried it and found it difficult. They all shook their heads, "Do you do this all day long? Your hands will be calloused. Look, just for a while, your hands were injured by burrs."

Bai Zhi also feels that the raw materials and craftsmanship are not good enough. Even if they are assembled, the scrap rate is quite high, but at this stage she has no way to be strict with the craftsmanship. She was afraid that if she waited any longer, the bandits around Danning would become stronger, or the government would call in the army to suppress it, and then she would have no chance.

She assured everyone, "This is just one of the ways. There will be more jobs for you to choose from in the future, but now I need these weapons. You can do whatever you want. If you don't want to, you can continue to do this brothel business. , one day, I will let you all find a new way out!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Bai Zhi was still a little nervous, but Li Yue immediately said, "I'll do it, I'll do it with you!"

Bai Zhi felt a little more at ease and her face relaxed a lot.

"But we are all clumsy, can this thing really succeed? Wasn't your hand injured by this thing?" Hua Yun said.

"Yes, it will become more and more precise in the future."

"If you ask me, being a prostitute is actually not bad. It's just selling yourself. It's good to get used to it. At least you don't need to be exposed to wind and rain. Sometimes when you meet a good man, you can get some money and feel comfortable. It’s the handle!” Hua Yun said with a smile.

The girls covered their mouths and laughed, and started to joke, "No, look how loud you screamed last night! That man is pretty good!"

"That's not it! You even gave me a pair of pendants! They're so pretty!"

……

Bai Zhi felt sad. After lobbying all night, she only got support from Li Yue.

She can't force these people. Now the brothel business is good and the overall situation is comfortable.

It is cruel and difficult to pull people out of their comfortable lives.

At night, Li Yue did not receive any guests. She worked all day in the small courtyard she bought behind Yinghong Building.

With her lonely back and slightly arched back, she was doing her job seriously.

Bai Zhi was in awe of her.
