Chapter 551: Wandering around the black market
Qiaolian prescribed medicine to the patient, gave a few more instructions, and handed the list to the couple and asked them to pay for the medicine.
But the two of them stood there still, Qiao Lian was stunned, "What's wrong?" Anything else? ”
The man was very embarrassed, "Doctor, we have the money for the child's treatment, and we can pay it."
But where are you going to find honey and sesame oil? Where are they sold now?
I have to trouble the doctor to give me some advice, let's go buy some. "It turns out that I am worried about this matter.
Also, at this time, there is not even enough food to eat, let alone rare things like honey and sesame oil.
Honey may be able to be cleaned with a little effort, and some people will dig out honeycombs to get some honey in winter.
But this sesame oil is really hard to find, and it is estimated that it may not be available in non-staple food stores.
Qiao Lian sighed, "Wait a minute, I'll go get you some sesame oil." ”
So saying, Qiao Lian went out, and came back after a while with a very small bottle in her hand with some sesame oil in it.
"It's not much, take it back and give it to the child.
Be careful in the future, don't let your child eat so many coarse cakes, I'd rather eat more vegetables, you know? ”
The woman took the vial, and was very happy, and thanked her again.
Then Qiaolian asked the nurse to lead them, went to pay the money and received the medicine, and went home.
"Sister Chen, why do you still have sesame oil? You just went out for a while and brought it, where did you get it? ”
The little nurse was very curious, and gathered around Qiaolian and asked.
"What I found when I was packing my luggage that day was probably stuffed in my backpack by my daughter while I wasn't looking.
This child may have given me the little sesame oil at home as soybean oil, she thought I could cook some food by myself here, and brought me some oil, salt, sauce and vinegar. ”
Qiao Lian made a look of crying and laughing, but in fact, she exchanged a bottle of sesame oil from the system and poured it into a very small glass bottle and gave it to others.
"Sister Chen, your daughter is really considerate, so enviable.
Your family must be having a good life, and there is sesame oil. The little nurse said enviously.
"It's not too good, it's just that the child's father always runs out and can buy something that we don't have in the local area.
In these days, I can't actually buy anything. Qiao Lian smiled and casually agreed.
The little nurse was still trying to say something, when another patient came, so everyone went about their work.
Waiting for everyone to finish busy, Director Chu, who was in charge of taking Qiaolian, came over and praised Qiaolian.
Let Qiaolian try to take over some not serious patients in the future and accumulate experience.
Qiaolian is naturally willing, she came to learn, and the more practice, the better.
After a busy day until she got off work, Qiaolian, who was tired, was in no mood to cook by herself, so she simply ordered a dish from the cafeteria.
When I came back, I ate a meal of pancakes, read a book when I was full, and then rested and went to sleep.
The next day, Qiaolian happened to take a turn off, and it felt quite boring to stay in the dormitory, so after thinking about it, I decided to go out for a walk.
It's been ten days since she came to Linjiang, and she hasn't been able to go out for a walk.
At the end of October, when the weather was already a little cool, Qiaolian wore a high-necked sweater and a thin tweed coat over it, and just walked out of the hospital to walk outside.
In fact, there is nothing to see in these years, especially this season, the leaves on the trees have long since fallen, and the mountains in the distance are all gray and abrupt.
Qiao Lian wandered around aimlessly, and she didn't know what was going on, so she walked and came to an alley near Linjiang Station.
Qiaolian noticed a strange phenomenon, it seems that there are a lot of people here.
It's just that these people are all mysterious, one by one wearing hats and covering their faces, walking and looking around.
Occasionally stopped, said a few words to the person next to them, and then the two of them left immediately. What's going on?
Qiao Lian suddenly remembered that the little nurse told her yesterday that there were several black markets in Linjiang, and many people were exchanging food and other daily necessities in the black market.
It seems that the little nurse mentioned that there is one near the station.
Could it be that these hurried people are all here to resell things on the black market?
Qiao Lian carefully recalled the little nurse's words, and suddenly became interested, can you come and wander around?
Thinking of this, Qiao Lian turned around and exited the alley and found another secluded place.
He took out a basket from the warehouse, put some food, eggs, oil and other necessities in it, and then found a cloth and covered it.
Then she also found a hat to put on, and made a scarf to cover her face, and just like that, she carried the basket on her back and returned to the alley.
As soon as I entered the alley and walked a short distance, an old lady came over.
"Girl, do you have millet eggs for sale? The daughter-in-law of the family is going to be confined, and there is a shortage of eggs and millet, if you have it, I will give you a high price. ”
Qiaolian's dress is different, and the clear-eyed person is not here to find things at first glance, so someone quickly leans over.
"Auntie, do you really want to change things? Don't fool me.
Millet eggs are available, and the price is not cheap, can you afford it? ”
Qiao Lian came to this place for the first time, and she didn't know much about the rules here, so she asked in a low voice.
"As long as I have it, I have money and something of value in my hand, buy some millet eggs for my daughter-in-law for confinement."
When the old lady heard that there were millet eggs, she was overjoyed and hurriedly nodded.
"Cheng, then come with me, let's find another place to talk."
Qiao Lian was very cautious, and did not talk to the other party in detail here, but turned around and left.
When the old lady saw it, she immediately followed, and just like that, the two of them walked out of this alley one after the other and turned to other places.
Qiao Lian looked around as she walked, making sure that no one was following her, knowing that this old lady should not be the nursery of the picket, so she was relieved.
The two of them walked a long way and came to a very secluded place.
Then the old lady took money out of her pocket, and a handkerchief.
"Girl, the money I brought may not be enough, you see if this will work, I will give you this thing."
When the old lady opened the handkerchief, she saw that inside the handkerchief was a pocket watch chain.
What is special is that the bracelet is golden yellow, which is obviously made of gold.
Qiao Lian really didn't expect that as soon as she came here, she would meet people who exchanged gold for food.
Is the famine out there now to such a degree?
"Auntie, your thing is not cheap, it is used for food, isn't it a loss?"
Qiao Lian was a little hesitant, she had never done this kind of thing before, and she didn't know much about it.
"Alas, what years have passed, who can take care of these?
This thing is not suitable for food or food, and I don't dare to take it out, for fear that people will know about it and cause trouble again.
It's better to change some food, and the family can fill their stomachs.
The most important thing is my daughter-in-law and children, how can this confinement have any delicious food?
Girl, if you have eggs and millet, give me five catties of eggs and ten catties of millet.
I'll trade this bracelet with you, okay? ”
