Yi Mu and the Lone Wolf descended the mountain.
He first went to the port with Lone Wolf and pre-booked several boats.
They told the captain that they were a group of young people from several large towns in the surrounding area who wanted to go south to find some work.
The boatman was overjoyed to receive several bundles of silver dollars. He didn't care who the man was, as long as he got the money.
Upon returning from the port, Yi Mu made several phone calls, inviting all three of his older sisters to his home.
He disappeared for half a year, and when he came back, he was no longer as fair and delicate as before.
The second sister was the first to feel sorry for him, and she hugged Yi Mu and cried for a long time, as if he hadn't gone to join the army, but had gone to Siberia to shovel snow, and had become completely rough.
Actually, Yimu has just lost some weight, but his physical condition is better than before.
Yi Mu had to go back in the afternoon and didn't have time to catch up with his older sisters.
He came back because he had something important to say.
It is now 1930, one year before the Japanese invasion of China.
The Northeast will soon be plunged into turmoil.
Yi Mu hopes that the entire Yi family, including his sisters and their husbands, will move to Chongqing.
Chongqing is a mountainous city surrounded by water, making it difficult to attack.
In fact, the Japanese invaders attacked and bombed Chongqing several times, but failed to capture this mountain city.
Chongqing will also serve as the wartime capital and command center of the Republic of China.
It's safe because there's a military presence there.
Yi Qin disagreed. The entire economic network of the Yi family was in the north, and suddenly saying that they wanted to move to Chongqing meant that everything would have to start from scratch.
"I'm not leaving, you guys go ahead if you want to leave!"
Yi Mu didn't even intend to ask for his opinion; he was just giving him a notification.
My second sister's husband was originally a division commander under Gu Cheng. After joining the Central Army, he became a regimental commander.
Because of his meritorious service in winning battles, he has now been promoted to division commander under the army group, a position on par with Gu Cheng.
He didn't come today, but as long as I can convince my second sister, everything will be fine.
My third and fourth sisters married a bank manager and a newspaper director, respectively.
Both of my brothers-in-law are weak and have no decisiveness whatsoever.
Therefore, Yi Mu was only responsible for persuading his second sister.
Although my second sister is married, all the sisters rely on her, including my eldest sister-in-law, who also thinks that my second aunt is the most capable.
After getting past the second sister's hurdle, they still couldn't bear to leave their home and refused to go. So, the second sister's husband found someone to tie them all up and put them on a plane, sending them directly to Chongqing.
When Yimu returned this time, he was clearly different from before.
While feeling sorry for her younger brother, the second sister also realized that he had grown up.
Yi Mu confided in his second sister, saying that he had received inside information that the war would never end.
This will intensify in the coming decades.
We absolutely cannot stay in the North anymore; we must head to Chongqing to ensure the safety of our entire family.
My second sister is a traditional woman who spends her days either getting her nails done at a salon or having a tailor come to our house to make her a cheongsam.
Next, I played mahjong with a group of wealthy ladies and chatted about high society gossip.
She actually had only a superficial understanding of war, and she would agree to whatever Yi Mu said.
Although they were cooperative, they were also perfunctory.
Yi Mu also realized this, and because of the urgency, he left home immediately and went to find his second brother-in-law.
My second brother-in-law is tall and strong, with a booming voice; he's a very masculine man.
He always thought his wife's younger brother was funny.
Although he was a playboy, he didn't smoke opium, didn't seduce women, and didn't engage in romantic relationships. He lived like a movie star, which was quite interesting.
The second brother-in-law patted Yi Mu on the shoulder, his eyes widening in surprise: "Wow, you've gotten quite muscular. What brings you here, brother-in-law?"
Yi Mu closed the door tightly, and to make a long story short, he found a concise and stimulating point to talk to his second brother-in-law for more than an hour.
When he left, his brother-in-law's smile vanished, a cigarette dangling from his mouth, a furrowed brow.
"I can't completely trust what you say, but rest assured, I'm responsible for the safety of everyone in the Yi family."
That's exactly what Yi Mu wanted to hear.
