She pursed her lips and said, "What I'm holding in my hand is an experimental drug that has gone through clinical trials and is basically harmless to animals and humans. It's just that we haven't carried out large-scale experiments and approved the drug for packaging, so it can't be sold on the market yet. No matter how rich you are, you may not be able to buy it. What I can get is my family’s social connections in the West.”
Ke Li didn't expect that this little pill actually had a hundred years of history behind it: "Such a miracle medicine should be able to cure angina, right?"
Mentioning this, Song Siyuan lowered her head for a moment and shook her head: "Angina pectoris cannot be completely cured, but with the intervention of Western medicine, the pain can be resolved to the greatest extent possible. Even with proper medical measures, angina pectoris can be eliminated for decades. Even if the attack cannot be cured, the angina pectoris can disappear physically, and the impact of the pain can hardly be felt, and one can live and do things like a normal person."
Keli was a little disappointed when he learned that angina pectoris could not be cured. However, fortunately, there were special drugs that could make angina pectoris completely disappear physically. Even if it could not be cured, it would be no different from normal people.
"This needs a lot of money!"
It is difficult for a rich man to be a man without money. According to Na Yi's angina pectoris condition, she would have to buy a lot of decoctions and decoctions every month, which would cost a lot of money over the years. The brother and sister do not even have a decent house now, which shows that the economy He was stretched thin, and Keli was obviously short of breath.
After all, it is about disease and life. Song Siyuan assessed the current situation and decided to have a thorough discussion with Keli: "According to her situation, she needs an operation in the West. The price is three hundred US dollars. Converted to today's silver dollars, it is at least one dollar." Fifteen hundred oceans, in addition to that, at least ten oceans are needed every month to buy this kind of special medicine. As long as you take the medicine for life, you will probably not have another attack.
"Fifteen hundred oceans...if Abba is here, it is still possible."
This figure is beyond what Keli could have imagined. In this place in the northwest, the strongest man, who works hard day and night, can only earn seven or eight yuan. This amount of money is not even enough for monthly medicine. Not enough. He dared to expect to be able to afford the operation fee of 1,500 oceans. Keli silently calculated the money on his hand in his heart, and suddenly felt that all his strength was drained.
Nayi did not expect that it would take so much money to completely suppress her heart disease: "What will happen if it is not cured?"
Song Siyuan told the truth: "When angina pectoris develops, it will become more and more frequent, and one day I will eventually die of myocardial infarction."
Neither Keli nor them wanted to see this result. Song Siyuan thought about Keli's words just now, and then thought about the operation fee of nearly 1,500 oceans. Something suddenly occurred to her mind, and she asked curiously: "Little Keli Brother, just now you said that your father would have a solution. Back then, your father decided to take Stan Hein and the others to the desert to prepare for the surgery expenses for Nayi."
Keli's throat rolled up and down, and he nodded heavily to them. Although he didn't speak to confirm, he already tacitly acknowledged her guess.
Seeing him like this, Yue Guanchao could guess why Guniz took Steinhein to the desert. Then he thought that Steinhein not only abandoned Gunizi in the desert, but also asked for compensation after returning, and there was something in his eyes. It's unbearable that this brother and sister had a chance to live a good life, but it was ruined by Stein Hein, an old man.
He chewed his teeth and asked: "If Steinhein, an old beast, wants to get ahead, he can only make a fuss about the ancient Shanshan civilization. I still don't understand why he left Guniz in the desert. mean?"
Song Siyuan thought for a moment and guessed: "Either it was a conflict of interests, killing people and silencing them, or a conflict of ideas and parting ways. Other than that, I really can't think of any way that Gunizi offended Steinhein."
"Are you willing to believe that Abba is not treacherous?" Keli asked tentatively, with surprised eyes.
Yue Guanchao nodded: "When did we think that Uncle Gunizi was treacherous? How could he be a mercenary person if he could teach brothers and sisters like you? Such people cannot be like Stein Hein said, because they They abandoned people without paying them.”
"What we are curious about is that Uncle Guniz probably discovered something in Sal City. Steinhe was afraid that he would leak the secret, so he gave him directly..."
Yue Guanchao did not continue, and Keli also understood what he meant. He had not seen his father back for so many years, so it was probably something bad was going on.
At this time, everyone had entered Keli's grotto. Seeing that Keli's mood had eased, Yue Guanchao suggested: "Brother Keli, how about we help your sister go to the West for surgery, and then pay for her annual medicine?" Now, if you are willing, just take us to Sal City."
Judging from how Keli felt sorry for Nayi just now, he was very concerned about his only sister in the world. This kind of care was to the point where he could give up his own life and dignity. Keli was obviously moved by Yue Guanchao's words. Song Siyuan saw There is a chance, and he continued: "If you don't want to, we won't force you. We will just find someone else. However, whether you agree or not, I hope you will let me take Nayi to the West for surgery. Nayi Yi's illness cannot be delayed any longer, and you know the consequences if it continues."
Keli was silent for a moment and sighed: "Come with me!"
Afterwards, Keli settled Nayi and took everyone back to the main grotto. He illuminated the desert map with a kerosene lamp, and the dim candlelight illuminated his face, which was firm and mysterious: "Like you, I never believed that my father would really He would abandon the expedition team. Something big must have happened when this happened, which also means that Steinhein must have lied."
"Haven't you always wanted to go to Sal City? Before you go, I think you have no idea about the horror of Sal City. Let me introduce Sal City to you first. If you still want to persist after understanding Sal City Go, I am willing to sacrifice my life to accompany you."
He paused and his tone became serious: "This has nothing to do with you trying to treat my sister. Even without you, I will definitely go to Sal City to find the truth in my lifetime."
"You haven't been to Sal City?"
Song Siyuan became curious.
Ke Li nodded: "It is true that I have never been to Sal City, but I once followed my grandfather to the vicinity of Sal City, and I also heard him talk about the legend of Sal City..."
Sha'er City is just a folk nickname for this city. According to official records, Sha'er City is officially called Milan City and was one of the five major commercial towns of the ancient Shanshan Dynasty.
