[She was abandoned by her family in the occupied area, but she single-handedly stirred up troubled times]
In 1938, on the night of the fall of Guangzhou, the Yan family fled south in panic.
The fifteen-year-old concubine Yan Weilan was deliberately abandoned by her aunt and aunt, and she overheard the cold truth: her father wanted to give her to a wealthy businessman in Hong Kong as a concubine in exchange for shares in the dock.
In desperate situation, she was reborn.
Carrying the "Compendium of Materia Medica" left behind by her biological mother, she blended into the refugee flow and was taken in by female doctor Zhou Qiluo with her medical knowledge. She took the opportunity to enroll in Hong Kong Sacred Heart Girls' High School.
With her extraordinary intelligence and language talent, she won the favor of the French consul's wife. She also keenly seized business opportunities during the war, exchanging quinine for the first pot of gold, and assumed the pseudonym "Su Lan".
The war rages on, and she rises in Shanghai.
Moving to Shanghai, she dealt with various forces:
On the surface, he is the pharmacy proprietress "Miss Su", secretly delivering medicines to the anti-Japanese forces;
He faked a marriage with the mysterious banker Cheng Yuan and really cooperated with each other to test and exploit each other;
He even formed an alliance with Paramount Intelligence Queen Hong Jie and used dance hall rumors to build a business intelligence network.
And when the family is in despair, they meet again——
The once aloof mother-in-law begged to buy grain, while the aunt-in-law was reduced to a textile worker.
Yan Weilan smiled gracefully: "What I want to see is not how you fall into the dust, but how I take back everything that belongs to me step by step."
This is an epic story of a concubine's counterattack in troubled times.
It is also an independent legend written by women with wisdom, courage and capital in the torrent of history.
