Chapter 670: Zhao Xibao
Qiao Lian chatted with Director Chu and a group of young nurses in the hospital for almost an hour.
About the same time, Zhao Xibao should have found the mark on his door, so he said goodbye to everyone, left the hospital, and returned to Zhao Xibao's house.
Sure enough, Zhao Xibao's kid was looking around at the door with his neck stretched.
As soon as he saw Qiaolian, Zhao Xibao was so happy that he couldn't wait to run over and hug Qiaolian.
"Sister, oh my sister, you haven't been here for a long time, I think you're about to go crazy."
This kid has a mouth that can speak, the kind that coaxes people to die without paying for their lives.
Qiao Lian already knew what Zhao Xibao's virtues were, so she only smiled.
"What? Look at you like that, there is no shortage of food now, why do you still think of me so much? ”
Last year, there were bumper harvests everywhere, and there should be no shortage of food here in Linjiang, so why are you so happy to see her?
"Sister, who did you hear say that there is no shortage of food?
Coarse grains are not lacking, but what about fine grains? What about meat? What about the scarce supplies? I'm telling you, good things are just as lacking.
And the more you want these things, the more money is not bad. Zhao Xibao looked at Qiao Lian helplessly.
"I said why didn't my sister come for so long, I thought that there was no shortage of food now, and the black market was useless?
Oh, my sister, you don't want to think about it, there is a shortage of everything now, and I don't know how many people are exchanging things in the black market. ”
When Qiao Lian heard this, she was stunned, she thought it was a lack of food, but she didn't know that something else could be replaced.
However, Qiaolian doesn't want to get involved in these things anymore, and she has saved a lot of treasures in the past few years.
The warehouse is full of two shelves and a large box, and it is almost gone, and it is not good to be greedy.
"It's a pity, I'm afraid I don't have the scarce supplies you mentioned."
Qiao Lian smiled, "I'm here to do business this time, and I'm just stopping by to see you." How? Have you found a job? ”
Zhao Xibao scratched his head embarrassedly, "Sister, if you find a job, it's not a decent errand."
I'm working at the scrap yard right now, and I specialize in collecting scrap metal and stuff.
Of course, the boys under my command are still hanging out on the black market.
Sister, if you have some in-demand goods in your hand, if nothing else, it is rice, white flour, oil, meat, and eggs, which can be sold at a high price. ”
Zhao Xibao still hopes that he can get some materials from Qiao Lian, and he earns less money when he goes to work, that is, to find a regular businessman, so that no one will say that he is just him.
As soon as Qiao Lian heard that Zhao Xibao was at the scrap yard, her eyes lit up.
"You kid is really looking for an errand, there isn't a lot of work in the scrap yard, but there is a lot of oil and water.
You kid has such a flexible head, have you been digging for something lately? ”
Zhao Xibao tried his best to persuade Qiaolian to take out the materials if he had, and Qiaolian guessed that this kid must have something to do again, and he wanted to make a fortune from Qiaolian.
Zhao Xibao scratched his head with a smile, "Well, I've been shopping for a few things recently, I think my sister can see it."
How's it going? Sister, are you interested? If you're interested, I'll show you. ”
When Qiao Lian heard Zhao Xibao's words, she knew that this kid probably had something good in his hand, so she smiled.
"Since you're here, let's take a look, I can still trust you kid to do things.
You say that there are good things, and I guess you can't be wrong. Let's go, show me. ”
Qiaolian had already returned the key to the Zhao family's gate to Zhao Xibao, she didn't come often, so there was no need to take someone's key.
Zhao Xibao opened the gate with a smile and led Qiaolian to the courtyard, and then Qiaolian stood and waited in the courtyard.
Zhao Xibao went into the house, took out a box, put it in front of Qiaolian, and then took out something from it.
"Sister, look at this thing, I think you can like it."
It is a round tripod with a whole body of vermilion, with a slight watery color, with a simple shape and a sense of vicissitudes of time.
At first glance, you know that this is definitely an old object.
Qiao Lian was very interested in this thing in Zhao Xibao's hand, so she took it and looked at it carefully.
After several years of contact, Qiao Lian also has some new understanding of these old objects, and as soon as she took this thing in her hand, she knew that this material was not simple, it should be jade.
Jades are generally white or green, with a few pink, purple, and yellow, but this vermilion color is too strange.
Qiao Lian took this tripod in her hand and observed it herself, and then found that the foot at the bottom had signs of wear, revealing the white jade inside.
In other words, this thing was originally a tripod made of white jade, but why is it now a layer of vermilion on the outside?
Qiaolian had no choice but to quietly turn on the identification function.
Then the mechanical voice of the system told Qiao Lian that the object in her hand had been around for a long time, and it was a ritual vessel carved from fine white jade.
As for the vermilion outside, it was a special method that coated a layer of cinnabar on the white jade tripod.
It is precisely because of this layer of cinnabar that the value of this tripod will be turned out several times or even more than ten times.
This is definitely a rare good thing, and the price given by the system is very high.
It was rare to meet such a good thing, and Qiao Lian was immediately moved, "That, how much food do you need for this thing?" ”
Qiao Lian was really optimistic, and immediately negotiated the price with Zhao Xibao.
"Sister, this thing isn't worth too much money, this is an old man who came to me to sell rags, saying that he wanted to sell this thing to me.
When I saw that it was not copper or iron, it was not worth a lot of money, so I gave him five dollars and accepted it.
Sister, just look at it and give it to me, just don't let me lose. ”
Zhao Xibao, this kid is a thief, and he knows that Qiaolian will definitely not let him suffer, so he deliberately said so.
Qiao Lian glared at Zhao Xibao, this bear child is used to playing these routines.
"Come on, I don't know about your little fancy intestines? Give you thirty catties of rice and thirty catties of white noodles, okay? ”
Now there is no shortage of grain as before, and the price has also been lowered, and the price of fine grain has dropped by almost half compared with the previous price.
Even so, it's not cheap, especially nowadays, even if you have money, you can't necessarily buy it. These fine grains are still very sought-after in the black market.
The same thirty catties, Zhao Xibao must be able to earn a lot, Qiaolian has always been generous, and has never treated Zhao Xibao badly.
Sure enough, as soon as Zhao Xibao heard this, he almost jumped up with joy.
"Sister, you are definitely my own sister, you are so generous, give me so much. It's done, that's all, I thank you, sister. ”
Zhao Xibaole was broken, and hurriedly thanked Qiaolian.
"Sister, there are some other things in here, they are all strange things.
You see, it's a box of ink, and it's also a guy who went to sell some scrap, and a box of ink fell out of a stack of things.
I looked good, so I got it back. ”
Qiao Lian's eyes were immediately attracted by the box of ink, "Don't you change gold?" Is this gold not exchanged? ”
