Chapter 135 The lightning rush
Wen Xi's eyes widened in surprise. This strawberry was bigger than an egg. Was it really wild? Wild strawberries should be only as big as a fingernail, right?
So this big strawberry must be produced by Lin Yiwan’s space.
Lin Yiwan patted the basket and said, "Xiaoxi, keep these strawberries for yourself and eat them slowly."
Everyone has a sense of closeness and distance. Lin Yiwan treats her as a friend, but may not treat Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue as friends as well. Wen Xi can give her own things to Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue, but if she gives them Lin Yiwan's things, that would be like borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha.
"I see. Thank you Yi Wan. I will definitely enjoy the wild strawberries Yi Wan gave me." Wen Xi smiled brightly, then carried the strawberries back to the room. She put the strawberries into the system warehouse, and then came out with an empty basket. "Yi Wan, I don't have anything to thank you for. I have a few tickets here. See if you need any!"
Lin Yiwan looked down and said, "Then I'll take a meat ticket!"
Wen Xi nodded, "Take whatever you want!"
In this era, no one has yet to vigorously grow fruits, so the fruit yield is extremely low and the price has remained high. If you really calculate the price of the basket of strawberries that Lin Yiwan gave her today, it is not cheap at all, and its value is much higher than that of meat.
Lin Yiwan finally picked a one-pound meat ticket and said with a smile, "Thank you!"
After Lin Yiwan left, Wenxi washed two strawberries and tasted them. They were juicy, sour and sweet, and had a strong fruity aroma. He wanted to eat more, but there was only a basket of them, and Wenxi couldn't bear to finish them all at once, so he left some for later.
Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue brought back a basket of bamboo shoots and poured them on the kitchen floor. Then the three of them went to the cafeteria together. There was a basket at the door of the cafeteria. Wen Xi took a curious look and unexpectedly found ten eggs in it.
Thinking that Captain Qian should bring it to make soup for everyone, Wen Xi took the eggs in. He couldn't afford the meat, but he could afford a few eggs, right?
Just when Wenxi had packed up and was about to make dinner, someone called Wenxi outside. The voice sounded like the postman's. Wenxi hurried out, took the letter from the postman, and then handed the two letters he needed to send to the postman, "Comrade, I have two letters here. Please help me take them back and deliver them."
One was written to He Chenan, and the other was a complaint letter sent to home.
When the postman saw the addresses on the envelopes, he was speechless. One was in the county town, and the other was in Fengshou Brigade. They were places within walking distance, yet they wanted to send letters to them.
Doesn’t it cost money to send a letter?
The postman nodded and put the letter into the cloth bag. It wasn't his money being wasted anyway, so he just had to do his job well.
The postman rode away on his bicycle. Wen Xi looked down at the envelope. It was He Chenan again. What was he planning to do? Did he want to send a letter a day?
Do doctors have so much free time?
Wen Xi put the letter in the system warehouse, then turned back to the cafeteria and started preparing dinner.
When it was getting dark, the day's work was finally over. Everyone cleaned up the cafeteria, locked the door, and went home.
After the beginning of spring, the days rise early. Wen Xi can no longer go out at five or six in the morning like he did in the previous winter. Wen Xi set the alarm in the system and got up at three o'clock. After washing up, he went to the kitchen to cook breakfast. Then he weighed the bamboo shoots that Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue had picked. He didn't expect that the two of them had picked several hundred kilograms of bamboo shoots.
A backpack can hold dozens of kilograms. If you carry two backpacks a day, that’s almost a hundred kilograms, so it’s normal to have so many bamboo shoots.
Wen Xi wasn’t sure whether the bamboo shoots could be sold now, so she didn’t plan to start selling them now. Even if she really wanted to sell them, she had to let people know how delicious they were. But she didn’t have that much time now, so she decided to sell fish!
Wen Xi packed all the bamboo shoots into the large hemp sacks he had signed out, piled them up in the corner of the system warehouse, and then set off.
It is still quite early now, the sky is pale and the moon is very dim. As daybreak approaches, the moon will naturally disappear.
Wen Xi walked towards the town under the dim moonlight. He set out early because he was afraid that he would not be able to find a place to put the things he wanted to trade when daybreak came.
When Wenxi arrived at the town, it was just after four o'clock. It was still dark, but it was not pitch dark either. He could see shadowy figures.
Wen Xi found a place to hide the things she was going to sell, and then went to find the black market boss. This time she did not use the "Rejuvenating Pill" because there was only so much in a glass bottle, and she had to keep some for dealing with her elder sister and brother-in-law when she returned to the city. She also signed for a wig and cosmetics, and dressed herself up as a fifty-year-old woman, using the excuse that she was delivering goods for the boss, so that the boss would think that she was a subordinate of the "man" before.
Because it was a rare opportunity to come to the town, and He Chenan wrote a letter to her every day, so she planned to finish her transaction with the black market and squeeze out some time to find He Chenan.
Although the two of them were friends, they didn't know much about each other. Wen Xi only knew He Chenan's name, job and dormitory, but didn't know where he was from.
She would never marry far away, so if He Chenan's hometown was very far away from her home, she would cut off all ties with him without hesitation and without any dragging her feet.
No matter how outstanding He Chenan is, she will not marry far away. Life away from home is hard already, and she has to endure the hardships in these few years. When she no longer needs to suffer in the future, she will not suffer the hardships of leaving home again.
Of course, if He Chenan was willing to go back to Beijing with her and settle down in Beijing, she might consider it.
What Wenxi traded this time were fish and pearl cream for face wash. Wenxi asked for two thousand yuan in cash and half of the gold, silver and jade articles. The prices were cheap at this time, so naturally he wanted to exchange more.
When you are out of money in the future, just sell one of them.
After the transaction, Wenxi went straight to the county town. The county town was quite far away and there was no car at that time, so Wenxi could only run and walk.
Thinking that he had accumulated many opportunities to sign in, Wen Xi signed in while walking. He saw a strange-shaped vehicle being signed out. It had two wheels like a bicycle, but was not as slender as a bicycle.
Wen Xi clicked on the instructions out of curiosity, and unexpectedly it turned out to be an electric bicycle. She didn't know what kind of vehicle it was, but she still tried it according to the instructions. Unexpectedly, she didn't need to pedal it, and it ran faster than a bicycle, which could be said to be lightning fast.
She didn't understand how she got the hang of it so quickly. Anyway, she rode the electric bicycle and reached the county hospital in less than twenty minutes.
