The waiter, who was lying on the table doing nothing and sleeping, felt someone coming in. He raised his head, rubbed his face, and his voice was hoarse as if he had just woken up.
"Want to buy something?"
Xia Li came here to buy some things to replenish his body, so he asked directly: "Do you have milk powder?"
The waiter shook his head: "No."
Xia Li: "Do you have malted milk?"
The waiter continued to shake his head: "No."
I asked several questions in a row, and the answers I got were all negative.
Not only food, but also supplies are very scarce.
Probably seeing that the expression on Xia Li's face was not very good, the waiter asked, "A new educated youth, or a military wife?"
Xia Li: "Educated youth."
The waitress looked as if she was like this, "Don't think about it, where is our South Island? The supply and marketing cooperatives in the backwoods and remote areas are definitely not as complete as those in the big cities.
The Corps has its own supply and demand channels. People are reluctant to come to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy things. It is useless for us to keep them here, so naturally the things will not be complete.
Not only us, the supplies in grocery stores and grain and oil stores are not that comprehensive. The grocery stores sell meat only once every ten to eight days, and fish, shrimps and crabs are available every now and then. We are afraid of spoiling it!
If you really want something, just exchange it with the team members in the villages below.
But this also depends on luck. After all, no one has much at home, and he may not have enough to eat, so how can he have time to give to others? "
Xia Li didn't expect that he just came to the supply and marketing cooperative first, planning to buy meat later, and before he had time to go to the grocery store, he got such shocking news.
I thought I would just bring enough money and tickets, but I didn’t expect that there is no place to sell anything on this island! Even if you have money, you can’t buy it!
If she had known this, she should have spent all those tickets before leaving, bought the things, and brought them to the space.
What's the use of getting more gold, silver and jewelry from Li Shengli? She's not very hungry!
You can't smoke and eat sugar every day.
Xia Li asked doubtfully how to get to the grocery store. After going there, Xia Li gave up completely.
Just those little dry shrimps, she wouldn’t even eat them if they were given to her for free!
She couldn't buy anything. With the current conditions, she wanted to feed the brigade commander's father until he was chubby and live a long life. After he was rehabilitated, her wish to raise Mi Chong's daughter with peace of mind was somewhat difficult.
It’s not scary to have no money. What’s scary is that you can’t buy it even if you have money.
With things in his mind, Xia Li walked to the vicinity of the White Tower without knowing it.
A place like the shipyard involves technical leakage, so naturally not just anyone can enter.
Xia Li walked around the door of the shipyard and found the old man guarding the door holding a teapot, drinking water one mouthful at a time, and rolling a cigarette from time to time.
After finishing the roll, I didn't want to smoke it. I put it under my nose and smelled it, and put it behind my ears. After a while, I took it out and smelled it, and then put it behind my ears.
Obviously he treasures that smoke very much.
If you're a smoker, that's easy to say.
Xia Li took out another pack of large front doors from the space, opened the package and took one out, and strode towards the mail room without showing any timidity.
The old man is in a good mood today. He is rolling a cigarette and humming a tune.
As soon as I looked up, I saw a very beautiful girl. She smiled cheerfully and said, "The little girl is here to see someone?"
Xia Li also had a smile on his face, and he did not directly state his purpose, but also said cheerfully: "Yes, I'm here to find someone.
No one has come out yet, so I want to find someone to chat with first. "
As he said that, he handed the unpacked cigarette to the old man, "Master, do you want to try the cigarettes that my uncle brought back from the city?"
The old man glanced at Xia Li and knew that she had something to ask him.
He reached out and took the cigarette, but did not smoke it, but said with a smile: "If you are looking for someone to chat with, I can naturally chat with you.
But the uncle never went to school and was just a janitor, so he didn’t know much about the factory. "
That's what he said, but his heart had already begun to turn upside down. He has even begun to think about how to call the guards in the shipyard.
The last time the person who came to talk to me like this had been captured by the soldiers, it was said that he was a spy.
Is it possible that such a young girl has become a spy?
What on earth are those islanders thinking? What can a good little girl do? You have to do this and get shot!
