Bai Er's life seems to be suddenly sad, but it seems to be no different from before. He still goes to high-end places, talks and laughs happily with people, and there will never be a lack of fawning dogs around him. One less pharmaceutical factory will inevitably make a lot less money. But Bai Er has too many assets, a pharmaceutical factory can't hurt him.

What's more, the pharmaceutical factory was destroyed by fire.

Shao Zuo Yamamoto originally wanted to get angry with Bai Er—after all, Bai Er is the local snake here, he can kill chickens for monkeys to see, they can even kill the most powerful one, how can others not be afraid of them and not listen to them?

However, this time it is not as easy as wanting a pharmaceutical factory.

Yamamoto never thought about it. Before he started, the French and the British came to him first, saying that Mr. Bai was their good friend. If Mr. Yamamoto just wanted a pharmaceutical factory, Mr. Bai had already given it to him. Yamamoto wants more, so they will never support it.

In fact, Yamamoto doesn't think highly of these white guys, he thinks these white guys can only hold on now!Is it not clear enough who has the right to speak in SIPG now?

But after all, he was only a major, not a major, and after reporting to the officer, he was instructed to "don't make things difficult for Bai Er".

So Yamamoto could only come to the door to apologize, saying that the fire in the pharmaceutical factory should be caused by the cigarette butts igniting the cardboard, and the fire escalated. Although it was a man-made disaster, it was more of a natural disaster. Who knows who threw the cigarette butts?But it's definitely not intentional, but no matter who it is, they are already dead, so they shouldn't embarrass and get angry with each other.

It is easy to offend people, but it is not easy to please them. Yamamoto finally understood this on the day he came to apologize.

Because no matter how sincere what he said, Bai Er, who was sitting opposite him, always had a cold face that was neither salty nor cold.

"Anyway, that pharmaceutical factory has nothing to do with me." Bai Er said impatiently, "It doesn't matter whether it was burned or exploded, it's the same to me. You come to apologize to me? That's unnecessary."

Yamamoto wanted to say a few more words, but Bai Er unceremoniously frightened the order to chase away the guest.

When leaving the White Mansion, Yamamoto glanced back.

He thought, now that the French and the British are still there, when they leave, Bai Er will be fish and he will be Dao Zu.

Just look at when the French and the British go.

According to the officer, it is estimated that it will not be long, two months at the fastest, half a year at the slowest.

Yamamoto's mouth curled into a smile, and he got into the car in a good mood.

"Yamamoto is a villain." Bai Er leaned on the sofa and watched Bai Yi peel an apple for him. Bai Yi's fingers were slender, white and well-defined. They were a pair of hands that were naturally suitable for playing the piano. Watch him peel an apple It's all a treat.

Bai Yi didn't understand what he meant, and asked, "And then?"

Bai Er sighed: "If he is a gentleman, then he will be easy to deal with, but if he is a villain, he will be in big trouble."

But Bai Er is a person who is never willing to bow to troubles. He quickly found a new way. He opened a new factory to produce nylon stockings. This factory was given to a Chinese official by him. Secondly, the officer only needs to sit at home and count the money.

This amount of money is really quite a lot, and Bai Er gave the other party a lot of money every month even before the income was paid.

He didn't intend to receive the benefits immediately, but to maintain this relationship for a long time. When the appetite of the other party was raised, and the earning could not keep up with spending, then Bai Er's goal would be achieved.

Windfall, when you first come, people will think that it is very good to have it, but it is just a pity not to have it.

But after a long time, the unexpected wealth will be regarded as their own property, and whoever wants to take it away will just bite off a piece of meat from them.

Bai Er can rest assured only when interests are bound together.

SIPG is still singing and dancing, but anyone can see that the current singing and dancing, or even louder noises, are all trying to cover up the undercurrents below. The capital has sent people here many times, wanting to invite Yamamoto and others After leaving SIPG, it’s a pity that they also ate food and drank wine, but Yamamoto never let go. They came with the supreme mission. Now that they have achieved their goals, their will will not change.

During the period of Baiyi, he also went back to visit Bai's house a few times. Father Bai was very glad that Bai Er was sent out. This second son is a good troublemaker. He is not at home at this time, but he is relieved. After all, he is a father. It seems that he has face, but this face is very limited. He has lived to this age, and he knows his weight very well.

"Fortunately, there is another you in the family." Speaking of this, Bai's father was very proud. Several of his old friends often corresponded with him, and the one who complained the most was the son in the family. Strange hobby.

For example, a son fell in love with a skeleton-the mannequin of the school, and must take the model home, otherwise he will not eat or drink.

There is also a helper who fell in love with the school cafeteria because he made the best bread.

All of these are different.

Father Bai also talked about the recent current affairs. He felt that Bai Er was very capable, and he could still take it down if he offended the Japanese. Didn't that Yamamoto dare not touch him?But Father Bai also quickly brought up the most crucial point: "What will he do after the British and French evacuate? I think you still have to persuade him to leave SIPG as soon as possible."

Bai Yi suddenly said, "Dad, I want to build a factory."

Father Bai asked strangely: "What factory to build? Didn't I tell you not to do business?"

Bai Yi: "Is setting up a factory a business?"

Father Bai blew his beard and stared: "Why not? You always need raw materials and workers, and you need to sell them to make money!"

Bai Yi: "Dad, you used to tell us about saving the country. I didn't understand it at that time, but I also thought that reading alone could not save the country. I don't want to go into politics. It's too complicated and people's hearts are dangerous. I cherish my life very much. At least my life can't be lost in fighting with my own people."

"So the way I can think of to save the country is to set up factories."

Father Bai didn't understand what he meant, but he knew how to save the country by industry, but none of them succeeded.

Either it was annexed by Western companies, or it collapsed, or it was forcibly taken over by foreigners. In short, Bai Er's factory accounted for half of the huge country, and other factories added up, and the things they could produce were also very limited. .

The most important point is that none of them are good things that are difficult to produce.

Even Bai's Pharmaceutical Factory, the only pharmaceutical factory in China that can produce penicillin, is gone.

The West can sell things, but it will never sell machines, nor will it provide professional instructors.

They have no way to buy it, and they have to compete with foreign products. As time goes by, the factory will naturally disappear.

Of course, it is not so easy to set up a factory. He needs to find a place that is not within the scope of any large forces, and then build a factory in a circle. In addition to workers, he also has to raise many thugs, buy machines, find technical support, and invest in the initial stage. It was a sky-high price that the Bai family could not afford.

But Bai Yi wasn't worried, he didn't know that when Bai Er was Zhang Li, he wouldn't accept any small gifts from Bai Er.

But now that he knows that Bai Er is Zhang Li, he will never have any conscience when he accepts Bai Er's money or gifts. He can still afford the money and is willing to owe the favor.

Father Bai thought for a while, and the reason why he opposed going into business was actually very simple, and it was different from the guesses of outsiders.

He knew that both his children and his wife thought he was a fool in studying, and felt that businessmen had a strong smell of money, but only he himself knew the real reason.

——When he was still a young master before he got married, he also thought about starting a business.

After all, at that time, half of the shops in the city were named Bai, but what did he do to lose money, and because he was the only son, the family could not punish him, so he could only let him develop. In the end, most of the city was left with only Two streets are surnamed Bai.

Since then, Father Bai has abandoned business and devoted himself to literature.

After Mrs. Bai came in, the business revived in her hands, at least not as bad as when Father Bai was in charge.

So Father Bai became a literati with peace of mind, and sometimes he could earn a penny by writing articles.

And he firmly believes that his sons are all up to him and can't go into business, but he said that they must be losing money and it doesn't sound good, so he took out the previous saying that business is cheap, so he got away with it.

But now, the most sensible eldest son said that he wanted to set up a factory, and that he wanted to save the country through industry, and Father Bai was shaken.

He asked: "Where did you get the machine? Where did you get the technology?"

Bai Yi also told the truth: "I have a very good relationship with the second master, he will help, not to mention the current state of SIPG, the second master will definitely leave soon."

Father Bai felt relieved, and felt that Bai Er was a good hand in business, even if his son followed him, he shouldn't lose too much.

"That's fine." Father Bai waved his hand, "Don't discuss with me about your young people's affairs."

At this time, Bai Yi said: "I want to send my family to Chongqing. If there is no accident, I will also go to Chongqing in the future."

"It's best to buy a house on a mountain and dig an air-raid shelter."

Father Bai looked strange: "What are you doing digging an air-raid shelter?"

Bai Yi couldn't answer clearly, so he said, "Second Lord told me so."

Bai Er has a lot of connections and a lot of contacts. It's normal to know a lot of news. Bai's father doesn't ask anymore, but he is still a little reluctant to go to Hong Kong. He finally got acquainted with this place. An elderly person always rushes here and there Going to a new place to get to know new cities and new people is really tiring.

Bai Yi also discovered that no matter what happened, as long as it was thrown on Bai Er's head, no one would ask him to find out. It seemed that Bai Er was the certificate of exemption.

Lying on the bed at night, Bai Yi told Bai Er about this discovery.

However, Bai Yi didn't care about Bai Yi's words. He was sitting on Bai Yi's body, and he was going to have some appetizers before eating the big meal.

After all, he is not a monk, so it's really not good to keep holding back like this!

"Did you hear that?" Bai Yi pulled Bai Er's wrist.

Bai Er is very perfunctory: "I heard it!"

"Hey! Don't move!"

After a long time, there was a long "um—" sound.
