She walked down the stairs, her perfectly made-up face showing an even more perfect smile.
It is neither strong nor weak, just like the magnolia blooming on the branches in spring, with wisps of light and elegant fragrance.
It was clearly the same face they were familiar with, and the same person they knew, but at this moment, they felt that she had changed.
Her temperament is more refreshing, which is quite different from the usual spoiled and willful young lady.
"Father, it's getting late. You should go and get some rest."
"Feng Yilin has left Taohua Province. We cannot predict the war situation outside. You are still needed to watch over Taohua Province."
Xunmi walked to Qi Kun, the original owner's father, took his hand, and spoke in a neither light nor heavy voice.
The subtle arrogance and toughness made everyone present hear it clearly.
It was like a huge rock hitting their hearts. Indeed, the war outside was fierce, and what was the point of them just moving here?
"Miss Qi, oh no, Madam Feng, I won't disturb you and Governor Qi. You guys go ahead and do your work."
"Madam, Governor Qi, I'm leaving now. If you have anything to say, please send someone to tell me."
Soon, most of the guests had left, and even Wan Jiabao reluctantly rolled up his sleeves and left.
There was a cold glint in Xunmi's eyes. This Wan Jiabao had been doing a lot of tricks behind her back.
Qi Kun was a little dazed. His daughter today made him feel like he was seeing his wife.
The tough wife back then was like this too, so resolute that nothing could defeat her, but war is cruel.
"Father, don't think too much. As long as we are still here, it's fine. You should be careful during this period. Once Feng Yilin leaves, Taohua Province will not be at peace."
Realizing that something was not right with his father, Xunmi quickly changed the subject.
"Daughter, tell me, did the marshal say something to you? We..."
"Father, you misunderstood. I just thought of something. I chose to marry Feng Yilin so that our family would have enough reason to donate military funds to the Feng Family Army without being suspected."
"Father, do you really think I'm that stupid? It's just that the world is in chaos, and I want to find a safe haven for our Qi family."
Looking for the righteousness he was talking about, his face was heavy and his brows were full of deep thought.
Since those people think that the original owner's love is superficial, she wants to turn the original owner into a delicate and exquisite woman.
Qi Kun opened his eyes wide in shock, his hands trembling, and he could barely speak, "Daughter...you...you..."
"Okay, okay, I finally have the dignity to see your mother."
His eyes were moist, as if this man in his forties would burst into tears in the next moment.
Xunmi hugged him gently and lowered her voice, "Father, please tone down your edge now and have everyone in the family disguise themselves and dress more simply."
"It's best to tell everyone we meet that we emptied the Qi family's wealth to raise funds for the Feng family army."
"Show weakness to the enemy. Let the people behind you relax first. Only then can I find an opportunity to strike."
Xunmi had no intention of hiding, so she decided to play the role of a pig and eat the tiger. She first made her father think that she had been pretending before, and now that the time had come, she would show her true colors.
Qi Kun really followed his search thoughts and felt very fond of his intelligent daughter.
He nodded repeatedly, indicating that he would do as she said.
He is upright, not pedantic.
Xunmi discussed with Qi Kun again her plan to set up a laboratory and recruit people who understand medicine to research drugs, as well as talents who understand technology and various industries.
Qi Kun is the governor of Taohua Province. He may not know other things, but he happens to be very clear about talent.
The two of them discussed it and started working on it secretly the next day.
At the same time, whenever the Qi family went out, they would dress roughly and complain to acquaintances they met.
In less than five or six days, the entire Taohua Province knew that the Qi family's huge fortune had been squandered by the eldest daughter of the Qi family.
"President Wan, do you think this news is true? Should we still implement our subsequent plans?"
A middle-aged man with a pointed face, glasses and a pipe spoke hesitantly.
Wan Jiabao sat on the old chair, filling up the entire chair. He moved his fat body and looked very unhappy.
"I'll make a decision after I consult that master. However, even if the Qi family hasn't been wiped out, they've definitely suffered a huge loss this time."
"Heh... Qi Xunmi that prodigal girl. Sooner or later, I will have a taste of her too."
Thinking of the person I met today, he was dressed in fiery clothes and looked noble and reserved, much more attractive than before.
The man who spoke earlier did not speak again. He smoked quietly, and no one knew what he was thinking.
"Bang!" "Ah!" A small explosion suddenly occurred in an underground laboratory.
A mushroom cloud emerged from the innermost room, accompanied by a slight scream.
Xunmi, who had just walked to the door, was delighted because the explosives had been developed.
Ignoring the gray smoke drifting out, he hurried in and looked at the stunned researchers standing around him. He calmed his excitement and asked, "Are there any results?"
Because of Xunmi's words, the stunned people came back to their senses in an instant.
"Ahhh, we've done it, we've done it, there's hope of driving those invaders out."
Chen Nanqing shouted excitedly to Xunmi, hugged the equally excited person next to him, and tears flowed down his face.
“Although the product has been experimentally developed, it requires a large amount of materials and has a high probability of failure.”
Luo Shang analyzed calmly and took off the simple iron mask on his face, revealing a handsome and elegant face with a hint of worry.
Just for this small success, they spent countless amounts of materials.
Nowadays, if we want to mass-produce, materials are a problem, and manpower is also a problem.
The joy in everyone's hearts died down in an instant. As the saying goes, "A good cook cannot cook without rice", this is exactly what they are in at the moment.
Xunmi leaned against the wall, looking at the messy test bench in the middle of the room, his eyes full of thought.
Qian Qi's family still has some, but it is definitely not enough to support the purchase of large quantities of gunpowder materials because she also has to take care of the medical side.
Gunpowder is necessary on the battlefield, but in this era when only simple gunpowder balls can be made, people using them can easily be injured by mistake, so medicine becomes particularly important.
"I'll buy some materials first and try to make twenty, then I'll figure out a solution."
Luo Shang and the others nodded solemnly, and the burden on their shoulders felt heavier.
But they do not regret participating in this secret mission. They are all patriots, and being able to do something for their country makes them extremely proud.
Xunmi turned to the medical team to check their progress and found that they had already researched and produced some finished products.
Although the number is small, Xunmi has to admire their strength. It has only been more than a month.
She suddenly remembered that the heroine should be at the front line by now, and she should send a telegram to the hero.
At that time, I don’t know whether what will be left behind are supplies and a divorce letter, or supplies and herself.
