"Drive!"

A gray horse, running on the official road of the Qi State through the Zhao State. After the horses galloped, all the way to the dust. Autumn leaves, fluttering in mid-air, whistling from time to time, seem to be an accompaniment to the journey. The pedestrians in front heard the sound of horses' hooves behind them, thinking it was a messenger, and they all avoided it.

After the unicorn Baijiao broke up with everyone, he rode his horse and left Linzi, the capital of Qi State, and took a shortcut to Zhao State. He didn't chase his brother-in-law Linyi, nor did he plan to go with his brother-in-law Linyi.

Lin Yi is that bird, when facing the cheetah team, when facing Qi Jun, when facing power and violence, he is cowardly. But in front of these people, they flaunted their might.

So! Bai Jiao didn't bother to pay attention to him.

If he weren't for the brother-in-law of Bai Gui and Bai Guanren, he wouldn't have been beaten to death.

Who do I care you are? What about the giant businessmen of Qi country? What is a giant merchant in Qi State? In front of your buddies, you are a giant businessman, and you show off your might. You're in front of my white horn, you're in front of outsiders, you're not a fart!

A few days later, the unicorn Bai Jiao came to the stronghold of Zhao and learned that Bai Guanren was no longer in Zhongshan and had come to Zhao and was living in a secret wife's room to reunite with his wife and children. I plan to show up again in two days and contact people from the high-level side of Zhao State.

Bai Jiao decided: go to the capital of Zhao to wait for Bai Guan.

After the affairs on the Zhongshan side were arranged, Bai Gui left the Zhongshan Kingdom and secretly came to the Zhao Kingdom to resume his "normal" life as before. In the past, the whereabouts of Bai Gui and Bai Guanren were like this, secret, and outsiders didn't know about it at all. If your own people look for him, they must go to the stronghold to find him.

Stronghold! It is also found in various places such as inns, inns, liquor stores, restaurants, jewelry stores, factories, etc. In most places, the base is located in the warehouse. Bai Gui's business empire is mainly spread by the warehouse.

Other than that! There is also a secret stronghold, that is, factories in various places.

Baekyu set up factories in various places to produce a variety of goods.

Of course! Most of the factories were not opened in his name, and most of them were opened in partnership with hereditary nobles in various places. Perhaps he was a sole proprietor, with the hereditary aristocracy taking out the territory and engaging in diplomacy, and then sharing the profits equally. Maybe? It was opened by a hereditary aristocracy, and he was only in charge of sales, and each had his own place.

There are only a few factories in the local area that he owns and runs alone. But! He doesn't care about anything, he's a hands-off shopkeeper. Of course! The person in charge who came forward to open it is all his diehards, in fact, it is his. Normally, this place is a secret stronghold.

Baekyu's third secret stronghold is: the secret wives of various places.

Needless to say, home is not a secret base, it is a public place. But! You can't find him and his family.

It is equivalent to people in today's society, who have bought a house in their hometown or somewhere, but they can't see them all year round. The place where they live, maybe somewhere else, is just the place of domicile.

Before leaving, Xue Lian, Qi Rong, Zhou Yan, Yang Siqing, and Mo Xiaoyu were all crying and reluctant to let him go. The five of them have big bellies and can't ride horses. In a few months, they will give birth. So! They all hope in their hearts that their husbands and white officials will not leave.

They know! When the white officials leave, they don't know when they will come back?

Looking at these five young beautiful wives, Bai Gui was also reluctant to leave.

To know! This is the woman he married after being reborn. And! It's all everywhere. And yes, moreover! They were very fond of him. Snow Lotus Them! It is a standard grassland woman, very tough, much stronger than the women of the Zhou Dynasty, much stronger than modern women. At home, they are very feminine and gentle.

This kind of woman who has both rigidity and softness, he likes.

And most of the women in modern society are stupid! The pretension cultivated by scarcity is expensive, and it is unreasonable. And when they fall out of favor, they can't stand on their own feet and are completely dependent on men to survive. There are good cabbages, but unfortunately they are all arched by pigs.

"I'll definitely be back!" After saying this, Bai Gui suddenly remembered this classic line in the cartoon "Big Big Wolf".

I'm not a wolf! I will definitely be back! Here are my women, here are my children and grandchildren! Here are my relatives, my love, and the people I care about the most! There are people here who love me and care about me.

I will definitely be back!

And here are my dreams!

With the sentimentality of parting, Bai returned to Zhao State.

In his fused memory, in the border city of Zhao State, there is a secret wife room and a secret home.

That year! Bai Gui's predecessor was chased and killed, and he ran away with the guards, and a person came to this family in the countryside by mistake. As a result, the family died of their parents, and the grief was small, and life could not go on. He gave all the money he had to a little girl who was not yet an adult to handle the funeral, and the rest of the money was used to take care of her younger brother.

More than ten years later, the little girl grew up and came over, and she wanted to make a promise, but he didn't agree. Therefore! The little girl promised that she was completely here to repay her kindness, not to blackmail, and that she only wanted to leave offspring for her benefactor.

Because! The benefactor let their Zhao family leave a younger brother and leave descendants.

Right now! The younger brother has already married and has also given birth to a pair of children, and will have many children and offspring.

If there were no white officials, she and her younger brother might have "sold themselves to bury their father" back then, and their Zhao family lineage may have disappeared from now on.

Bai Gui saw that the little girl had been waiting for him and finding him for almost thirty years, so he had to agree to live with her for a few months before they separated after becoming pregnant.

From now on! In the Zhao Kingdom, Bai Gui's predecessors had a secret wife's room.

Women in the Warring States Period, who have not yet married at the age of thirty, basically no one wants them. To know! How many men died on the battlefield before they lived to be thirty years old. For the king or the king's country, there is a high-sounding reason to die anyway.

So! An old woman who hasn't married at the age of thirty, an old woman at the grandmother level, no one wants it.

Out of sympathy and emotion, Bai Gui naturally agreed.

Furthermore! This Zhao woman is also virtuous, she is not married, she specializes in earning money to subsidize her younger brother, take care of her younger brother's family, and make great contributions and sacrifices for their Zhao family.

Such a virtuous woman, if you don't accept her, you will be a fool.

When Baekyu left, he gave her a lot of possessions. Outcome! Zhao Nu didn't use much. She didn't use the money to build a luxurious house, nor did she buy much land. But! Continue to live the same life as before, living with my brother's family.

Although I didn't live a luxurious life, but! With the help of this money, she and her brother's family have maintained a normal life and can live well.

There is the Taoist way of life: do not show your wealth, and live like the people around you. In the era of famine, it was clear that there was food at home, and it could be exchanged for food, and they lived a life of being full and hungry. Anyway! Maintain the same life as the people around you. In fact, her family is very rich and she doesn't dare to show it.

Bai Gui, who came to Zhao again, saw that his son was very sensible, and his brother-in-law's family was also good, so he was very satisfied and moved. So! I've been here a lot since then.

For outsiders, they thought that Bai Gui and Zhao Nu's family were friends and came to visit their friends. Only a few people know the inside story: this is his secret family. The children born to Zhao Nu are all the blood of the white officials.
