Chapter 765 [764] Famine Age 5 (1 more)
In any case, Ye Huan has led the Ye family to successfully avoid the famine, and also avoided the fate of the heroine being resold and reduced.

This was a huge turning point. Then in 1949, she decided to farm the land honestly, and didn’t want to do anything else, because the outside was still not peaceful.

Ye Huan is 1.6 meters tall, and looks more majestic, but he is not good-looking. It can only be said that he is buried in the crowd and cannot see the public face. His eyes are small, with single eyelids. It is the worst long face. To put it bluntly, it is a rural face. It is not foreign, but to put it bluntly, it is safer.

The younger sister, Ye Yu, looks better than her. She has big eyes and looks taller. She also inherited her father's double eyelids, so she looks more like her mother.

The appearance of the Ye family is good, especially her father, who is tall and handsome, with double eyelids, big eyes, and a high nose bridge, so her two older brothers are very handsome, but unfortunately, there is no news about them yet.

Even the fact that such a serious famine occurred in their hometown did not come back, it is enough to show that it is not easy for them.

Ye Huan felt that she couldn't just sit and wait like this. Farming was not what she wanted, and she had to find a way to find a job for herself.

Of course, no matter what age, education and contacts play a vital role.

But she didn't have any of these two things. Not only did she have no education and connections, she didn't even have money.

When she was penniless, she thought of going to the county seat.

The currency in circulation this year is the most chaotic, including legal currency, liberated area currency, and banknotes issued by local governments, but the real hard currency is silver dollars.

There are many types of silver dollars, including Chinese Longyang, Yuan Datou, founding commemorative coins, Chuanyang, etc., as well as foreign-made Yingyang, Zhanyang, and Zuoyang.

Due to the current political turmoil, especially after the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, the government of G was unable to make ends meet. In order to temporarily relieve the pressure, it issued banknotes indiscriminately, causing the rapid depreciation of legal currency.

In addition, Chinese people's silver standard thinking is deeply rooted, and they have always only recognized silver dollars.

Therefore, silver dollars have continued to circulate, but the reputation of legal currency is not high.

After the civil war broke out, the government of the G people spent a lot of financial resources, and the finances became even worse, so they printed money even more frantically, and finally made the legal currency useless.

Based on such an analysis, if she wants to make money, she must only recognize silver dollars, or other jade or antiques. These are good things that can appreciate in value in the later stage. When there is nothing to sell, the space Fruits became the only consumer goods.

After much deliberation, Ye Huan decided to go to the county town to try it out. After all, only if he had money would he be able to settle down the jobs of his younger siblings in the future.

But if she wants to bring this family out, she has to be the first, so after the spring plowing in 44, she found her grandfather and father, and told her original intention of going to the county to find a job. To solve the problem of accommodation, her more ideal place is Luoyang City, which must develop faster than this small county.

But running is impossible until you learn to walk.

Ye Huan is only 14 years old this year, and she can't read a single word. In the past, the Ye family would never trust her to go out to find a job.

After experiencing the famine, they realized that Ye Huan was no longer the same Ye Huan as before. Although the little girl in front of them still looked like Ye Huan from their family, her conversation and knowledge had already surpassed that little girl who was illiterate, and she was thoughtful. However, it was her idea to escape and how to escape during the famine, so it must be her decision to go to the county to work after careful consideration.

But out of concern for her, the old man of the Ye family still said: "Let your father accompany you?"

Ye Huan shook his head and refused: "Master, I have grown up, I don't need my father to follow me, I will walk in the morning and come back in the evening, don't worry, I will leave after dawn and return before dark, I will just go around Go shopping, do what suits you, and come back if you don’t find what suits you.”

"You go alone, how can I rest assured?" Ye Qiang frowned, obviously disagreeing.

"Father, don't worry, I can do it." Ye Huan gave Ye Qiang a firm and persistent look, even though he was worried, he still said.

"Then at least let me take you back, pick you up, I won't follow you, no matter what you do, but I will take you there."

Ye Huan thought for a while, "Father, I'm going to the hospital. There are many patients in the hospital and there is a lot of work to do. If I don't go to other places, I will go to the hospital."

Ye Qiang was moved when he heard that, "Hospital? A place like a hospital is so unclean. You are a little girl."

"Okay, let her go if she wants to. You send her there in the morning and pick her up in the evening. You both agree on a time."

Ye Huan told Ye Qiang that it was already the biggest concession. The old man has lived for more than half a century, how can he not see what the little girl is thinking?
Whether she is serving people or selling things, since she wants to do it, let her do it, this family can't help her, but it must not restrict her or drag her down.

Before and after the Qingming Festival, it was still cool in the morning. Ye Huan was wearing a patched local shirt. The clothes in all seasons were mainly made of cotton. This was changed from the old clothes of his brothers, so it was very gray and ugly, but Ye Huan Huan is not picky, she looks very ordinary in the first place, it's useless to dress up so pretty, it's good to be a tomboy to support her.

But the younger sister is not as good as her. She often envies the younger sisters of other people. The younger sister can wear colorful clothes. Who told them that there are no girls in their family? When they have nothing left, they can only wear brothers. Childhood clothes.

There were no bicycles in this era, at least they hadn't seen them here. Her father wanted to borrow a unicycle or a trolley to push her, but she refused.

"Father, I can walk without you pushing."

So the father and daughter used their two legs to walk more than ten miles to the county town, which took two or three hours.

The hospital at this time was far less grand than the ones I saw in my previous life. It was located in a large compound, with several two-story buildings at the front and back.

The buildings are all made of blue bricks. It is said that it is a county seat, but it is better than the houses in the country, and there are more people gathered. It is really better than the bustling, and there is no way to compare with the big cities. It can be seen that a small county is actually not much better than their countryside.

At best, the clothes she wears are cleaner, with few patches.

Her father sent her to the gate of the hospital and left. Thinking that he would have to toss for two or three hours to walk home from here, and then walk around with her again in the afternoon, she felt distressed and flustered.

But this is a way for him to express his love for her, she has no way to refuse, she can only think about earning more money to subsidize the family.

No one wants to come to a place like a hospital, no matter what time of day it is.

She found a place to carry people, and took out the small broken basket she had prepared a long time ago, which contained the fruits she had stored for a few days.

There are three kinds of strawberries, apples and tomatoes. It stands to reason that there are no out-of-season fruits in this season, but the really rich can also buy them. It is nothing more than that this kind of thing should not appear in such a small county, unless Shanghai Only a big city like Beijing can have it.

But in order to earn some money, she also worked hard. After all, it is produced by Space, and it is also an excellent nutritional product for patients.

Considering that it is good for pregnant women to eat, she went to the obstetrics department with her things. She went in from ward to ward and took them out secretly. She only asked well-dressed people, because only such people could afford them. .

Her fruits are attractive in color, very beautiful, and very big in size. One ocean can buy her two apples, two tomatoes, and four strawberries.

Because they sell fresh goods, a piece of ocean is indeed not cheap, but considering the things that come out of space, she loses money by selling them cheaply, so even if she doesn't buy it after asking seven or eight companies, she is not discouraged, and the whole ward is turned down. Only sold for two oceans.

Later, when a female doctor saw the fruit in her basket, she was very surprised and very interested: "Little sister, how do you sell these fruits and apples?"

The rest of her basket can be sold for three oceans, thinking that the doctor has money, so she said directly: "You take it all here, three oceans."

When the female doctor heard the price, she only frowned slightly, but after she flipped through the fruits in the basket and checked the appearance, she nodded in satisfaction.

"Okay, you come with me, I want it all."

Ye Huan followed the female doctor to her office, took out all the fruits and placed them on her desk.

"Sorry Auntie, I only have this one basket, so,"

"Ah, it's all right, I have a cloth pocket, just pack it up."

At this time, everyone uses the cloth pockets brought back from Shanghai. There are two rings in the carrying area, which is very convenient.

When the female doctor was looking for her bag, she turned to her and asked, "I still have legal currency and coins issued by the Henan government, do you want it?"

Ye Huan shook his head: "Auntie, I only want silver dollars. If you really don't have any, do you have anything in your hand that you can exchange with me? Let me see."

The female doctor considered it again and again, and finally gave her three silver dollars. After Ye Huan took the silver dollars, she asked sweetly.

"Auntie, does the hospital recruit temporary workers, or do you think there is any job suitable for me? If so, can you introduce it to me? If yes, I can only charge you a piece of ocean for these fruits."

When the female doctor heard this, her eyes lit up: "Are you literate?"

"Yes, I went to high school (fifth grade)."

The female doctor pursed her lips and pondered, "There are really two jobs, one is to help the kitchen in the canteen, and the other is to transfer garbage in the nursing area. To put it bluntly, it is a cleaner. The salary is the same. It is 30 yuan a month. You can also use other currencies, such as French currency, or distributed by the national government." (The value of the currency is all fabricated, don't worry about it)

Thirty oceans a month, not much, but in the hospital, it will be more convenient for her to sell fruit.

 Note: In this period, there are too many types of currency values ​​and too messy, and the information in hand is also limited, so I can only make it up. If you know it, you can leave a message to tell me. If you don’t know it, just take it as an example, thank you.
