After get off work at noon, Gu Lin quickly ran to the cafeteria and rushed back with two lunch boxes and two side dishes in her hands.
Then he grabbed Chen Xia, pulled him into the doctor's office, and locked the door from the inside.
Chen Xia quickly leaned against the wall, covering her chest with her hands.
"What do you want to do? Don't do this in broad daylight. I'm calling for help."
Now it was Gu Lin's turn to be upset.
"Stop talking nonsense and hand over the braised meat. I'll see who can snatch it from me today, not even that old dean."
"Old rules."
"Brother, you are my real brother."
Chen Xia took out a snack box from the locker. Gu Lin snatched it away and opened it. It was indeed filled with delicious braised meat. She was happy now.
I quickly picked up a piece and put it in my mouth, chewing it and saying, "It's delicious. This is the best braised meat I have ever eaten in my life."
Chen Xia wanted to laugh when he saw her, and like a magic trick, he took out a bottle of soda from the cabinet and gave it to her.
"Since you've been so obedient, I'll treat you to a drink."
Now Gu Lin looked at him with stars in her eyes, "Don't even mention brother, I'll even call you uncle."
In fact, Chen Xia really wanted to be flirtatious, so she joked, "Then you can call me husband."
If he had dared to joke with the nurses like this in the operating room in his previous life, he would not dare to do so in this era.
The two of them hid in the department office, secretly eating meat and drinking soda, and they were so happy.
During the chat, Chen Xia learned that Gu Lin indeed grew up in the Northeast when she was a child. Later, she came to Yuezhou with her father and went to elementary and middle school here. No wonder there was always a Northeastern accent when she spoke.
"Gu Lin, where in the Northeast are you from?"
"FS County, Jilin, a small place at the foot of Changbai Mountain. Have you heard of it?"
“I haven’t heard of it, but I know Tianchi Lake in Changbai Mountain.”
"Tianchi is right where we are, not far from the border of Caoxian Country. It's very cold in the winter, and it's most famous for its ginseng."
"Ginseng..."
Chen Xia thought of the wild ginseng that was sold at a sky-high price in his previous life, and secretly took note of this place in his mind, determined to buy some if he had the chance.
Ginseng has been a good thing since ancient times.
A ginseng that is over fifty years old and of good quality can be sold for more than one million after a few decades, and there is still a shortage of market.
At that time, all the wild ginseng that could be dug had been dug up. I heard that the annual output was only a few kilograms, and it was all bought up by some mysterious buyers. It was no longer seen on the market.
Therefore, what is sold on the market is not authentic wild ginseng at all. In fact, it is all counterfeit forest ginseng and garden ginseng, many of which are imported from Russia. Not only is the medicinal effect very different, but in the eyes of those who know the industry, the value is also very different.
It is only 1980 now, and there should still be a lot of wild ginseng. However, the price has not been driven up due to reasons such as inconvenient transportation and the lack of wealthy people.
If you buy some now and put them in the space hospital, you can not only nourish yourself but also sell them at a high price later.
It is definitely an excellent "financial product" for increasing value and preserving value, and can completely offset the terrible inflation in the 1980s.
"Gu Lin, how about you take me to your hometown if you have the chance? I will reimburse all the expenses."
As soon as she said this, the little girl's face turned red at a visible speed. Chen Xia blinked, wondering what the little girl was talking about.
This is still due to different ideas and concepts.
For people of this era, if a boy says he wants to go to a girl's home, or her hometown, it means he wants to date the girl, which is like visiting her home to recognize her relatives.
Chen Xia didn't know and just blurted it out. But Gu Lin knew that although she looked carefree and heartless on the surface, she was actually a young girl who hadn't experienced anything in life.
I am naturally sensitive and shy about love and boyfriends.
So the atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward.
Fortunately, the other young doctors had returned from lunch. Hearing the noise in the corridor outside, the two of them quickly hid their lunch boxes, cleaned the table, and turned on the ceiling fan to the maximum to blow away the smell of braised meat in the room.
After doing all this, the two looked at each other and burst into laughter.
After lunch, with two hours left before the afternoon work, Chen Xia walked out of the hospital alone to look for a house to sell.
The houses in Ke Town still retain the original style of the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, because it has been the economic center of the Yuexi region since ancient times. There are many wealthy families and large mansions here.
But now these big houses are either full of people or used as offices by some units. In short, Chen Xia did not see any vacant houses.
These days there are no real estate agents wearing seductive uniforms, calling you "big brother" and selling you a lot of properties, which made him a little confused.
In this way, he walked and searched all the way, and unknowingly arrived at the Kezhen Guesthouse. Yu Deshui was just seeing off a group of guests, and when he saw Chen Xia strolling around, he immediately hurried to meet him.
"Isn't this Brother Chen? Oh, I haven't seen you for a long time. Come on, come on, sit in the store for a while."
Yu Deshui was particularly friendly when he saw Chen Xia. Regardless of whether Chen Xia was okay or not, he pulled him into the guesthouse.
"Brother Chen, have you been working at the Fourth Hospital recently? The last time I asked, you said you hadn't started working yet."
"Brother Yu, I'm already working, interning in the infectious disease department. Are you feeling well?"
"Okay, okay, thanks to you, I was able to save my life. Later, when I went to the provincial hospital to do some work, I told the doctors there about this incident. They also said that I had met a benefactor. Otherwise, given the situation at the time, I'm afraid I would have become a disabled person if not dead. Thank you so much."
"It's okay, it's okay. This is what they call good fortune, haha."
Yu Deshui thanked him for a long time and took out two bottles of Wuliangye from his desk.
"Brother Chen, these are two bottles of wine that I finally managed to get. Take them and drink them. Don't refuse. I paid for them personally. I didn't spend a single penny from the public. Tell me what you want to eat in the future."
Chen Xia tried to decline for a long time, but seeing Yu Deshui's firm attitude, he accepted it. After all, it was only two bottles of wine, not expensive, but hard to buy, so he drank it with heart.
"By the way, Brother Yu, there's something I want to inquire about. Is there anyone's house for sale in Ke Town? I want to buy a house and live there myself."
"I need to find out about this matter. Leave it to me. I'll give you a reply tomorrow."
Yu Deshui's job involves dealing with all kinds of people, and he's considered a local tyrant in Ke Town. Letting him do this kind of nosy work is really the best use of his talents.
