Chen Xueru looked at him and waved her hand in front of his eyes, "Qinghe, you...what's wrong with you?"
"Huh? Oh, nothing."
Coming back to his senses, Li Qinghe waved his hand regardless of his excitement and asked, "Do you know the origin of this jade pendant?"
He was really curious. He had never encountered many things that contained so many emotions.
Chen Xueru thought about it and shook her head, "I don't know either. This thing has been in my family since I was a child. I heard that it was passed down from my great-grandfather's generation. I haven't asked anything else. What's wrong with this jade pendant?"
"No, take the things back quickly."
What Li Qinghe cares about most is emotions. As long as he absorbs enough emotions, he will continue to become stronger.
Now that I have absorbed the emotional energy from other people's treasures, I naturally feel embarrassed to ask for their things again. After all, I have already gained a lot.
Chen Xueru's face darkened. "You take it. It's not worth much now. It's all old stuff. It's useless for me to take it. It may cause trouble.
"Besides, I don't have anything to give you in return. If you don't take it, I'll just eat and drink for free. I really don't have the face to do that."
Li Qinghe sighed. Chen Xueru was born at the wrong time. If she were in the future, she might be able to stir up some trouble, but in this era, whether you are a dragon or a worm, you have to crawl obediently.
Then, Li Qinghe's mind moved, and he asked, "Didn't you say last time that you had bought goods from Gangcheng? You should have some connections, right? Why didn't you think of going to Gangcheng?"
"It's not as simple as you think." Chen Xueru said bitterly.
"Over at the port, I only have some channels that allow me to get some goods in. It's fine at ordinary times, but since the wind direction has changed, all the channels are useless. Goods over there can't come in, and goods here can't go out.
"As for going to Hong Kong City, I do want to, but you can see my current situation. I am penniless. Before I met you, even eating was a problem, let alone going to Hong Kong City.
"And even if you have money, it's useless. Without a letter of introduction, you'll be arrested if you dare to enter the city, and you can't even take a bus. Even if you have a letter of introduction, how can you eat without national food coupons? You'll starve to death on the way."
"That's true." Li Qinghe nodded.
"Then do you want to go to Gangcheng?" Li Qinghe asked again.
"It doesn't matter if you want to or not, the result is the same." Chen Xueru said, pulling his hand and putting the jade pendant on it, "You take it, otherwise, I really don't have the face to accept your help."
"Okay, I'll keep it for now. Just tell me when you want it." Li Qinghe did not refuse this time and put the jade pendant into his pocket.
Asked: "What are your plans for the future?"
"What else can I do? I'll just take it one day at a time. What else can I do in my current state?"
Chen Xueru is now living in a daze and has no plans at all. Countless people with good backgrounds can't find jobs, let alone her.
Because of class background issues, it was difficult to make any progress in that era, and the underdeveloped industry could not absorb too much labor. Later, students were simply thrown all over the country, and the rural areas were asked to help absorb these populations.
There has been no real call to go to the countryside yet, but when the time comes, basically everyone like Chen Xueru will have to go.
But this is not necessarily a bad thing. At least you don’t have to worry about starving to death.
