Chapter 434: Hanks' plea for help
When Inuyama Shiba said the news, he guessed that Kunisoichiro would definitely ask him, but he didn't lie about it at all, so he replied directly: "You must know the person who won the lottery, Kokuzuo-kun, and the other party is the upper toyukou who lives at the corner of our street." {We don't write novels, we're just online text porters-casual-dream-novels wwwlā"
"Ueto-kun, doesn't he usually sell newspapers wholesale, and I happened to buy a newspaper from him that day, and he knew that I had participated in the literary fiction contest held by the Sakura Group, and then said that he would vote for me, but when I went to buy the newspaper the next day, this guy actually told me that he had won the lottery."
Speaking of this, Inuyama Shiao said with a hint of envy in his tone: "When I went out this morning, I happened to see the Sakura Group's vehicle for the prizes parked outside their door, and it is estimated that this guy is already tasting those delicious prizes." "After saying that, Inuyama Shiba smashes it, smashes it, and smashes it.
After listening to Inuyama Shitao's words, Ichiro Kunizoro on the side immediately shook his head and said, "No, Inuyama-kun, you don't know that guy from Ueto, according to my understanding, that guy will never be willing to eat those valuable foods." ”
"Don't look at this guy in the house is usually quite cheerful and generous, his own guy is very economical for himself, I haven't seen that guy go out to eat once in so many years, this time this guy will definitely take those foods to the black market and sell them, at most he will leave one or two things for their daughter to taste."
Speaking of this, Guozuo Ichiro said with envy: "Eighty-eight yuan and eighty yuan of in-demand food, if these things are resold on the black market, they can at least be exchanged for more than double the value when they change hands." ”
"I don't know the value of other things, but I know the value of the new instant noodles and ham sausages in the Sakura Group's factory."
"Recently, we have packed a lot of these two kinds of food at the dock, and many people have purchased these two kinds of food and sold them, and I heard that the instant noodles and ham sausages seem to be particularly delicious, and now they are in short supply in the market."
"The shortage of supply has caused the black market prices of these two foods to be particularly high, at least twice the price sold by Sakura Group, almost reaching the height of two yen, and many people are hoarding these two foods."
"If I could, I would really like to buy a pack. Let's try what kind of instant noodles this instant noodle is, and see if it tastes better than the ramen made by the Yoshikawa family outside the pier. After finishing speaking, Kokuzuoichiro subconsciously stretched out his tongue and licked his lips.
Kokuzoichiro's voice fell, and the front garden on the side opened his mouth and continued: "I know a thing or two about the value of canned beef produced by Sakura Group. ”
After saying this, Maezonokura's fat face had an aftertaste expression. Turning to the people who looked around, "Didn't I tell you that a neighbor near our house works in the Sakura Group?" When he informed me that my application was successful, he invited me to lunch at Sakura's cafeteria. ”
Speaking of this, Maezonokura seemed to fall into memory, and said in a dreamlike voice: "You don't know how good the food of the employees in the Sakura Group is, the braised pork is red and oily. Served with the best Akita white rice, you will swallow the whole tongue after eating it. ”
"Plus a bowl of fresh seafood soup, that seafood soup doesn't want to put kelp in our own house at all, this seafood soup is full of finger-length shrimp, and some shellfish crab meat or something, the ingredients in it are very rich."
"In addition to these, there are two fresh special dishes, and the last is a can of canned beef, the taste of the canned beef is even more amazing, more fragrant than the braised pork, and the taste is nothing to say."
"And the outer box of the canned beef makes people feel high-grade at a glance. It is made with a pull ring, I haven't seen it, and you can open the can with a gentle pull, which is particularly convenient and trouble-free. At that time, I asked my neighbor how much this canned beef was, how much do you guess? As he spoke, Qianyuan Cang turned his fat head and asked the workers who were surrounding him and listening.
After seeing everyone shaking their heads, Maeenkura continued: "Just such a small can of canned beef, the ex-factory price is five yen, and I was so frightened by this price that I didn't dare to stretch out my chopsticks." That's five yen, and my neighbor told me that this kind of canned food was the lowest quality in their factory. ”
"On top of this low-grade can, there is a medium-grade canned food worth 50 yen, and a high-grade canned food worth 2 dollars. Five dollars for fine cans, and ten dollars for the best cans. ”
"In addition to the medium-grade canned food worth 50 yen, which can be bought in China, the latter three kinds of canned food priced in US dollars cannot be bought in China at all, and these high-grade canned foods are all export products, all of which are exported to the United States, the United Kingdom, and some European and American countries that have developed greatly."
After listening to the introduction of the Sakura Group's food value by Kunisoichiro and Maezoenkura, Shiba Inuyama on the side couldn't help but say, "If it is according to what Kuniso-kun and Maezono-kun say." If the price of these foods is so expensive, then these things are sold on the black market, and the guy in the upper household can at least make more than 100 yuan, and this guy really makes a lot of money, and he can get the salary of ordinary workers for several years at once. ”
As soon as Inuyama Shibao's voice fell, Maeenkura on the side continued: "To be precise, your lucky neighbor, if you get this batch of prizes on the black market, you can exchange them for at least one hundred and eighty yen or more, or more." ”
Seeing that the crowd seemed a little incredulous, Qianyuan Cang continued to explain to everyone: "I often go to places like the black market, and I still know the price of the things inside. ”
"In the black market, all the goods that are in demand on the market will be doubled, but now because of hunger ~ famine, food is still the most popular, of course, there are many types of physical hermits."
"Of course, the food produced by the Sakura Group is the most sought-after and popular, and these foods are usually purchased by some political and business officials with more assets, and generally speaking, they are not marketable at all, as long as they are sold on the black market."
Maezonokura's words made everyone even more envious of Inuyama Shibao's neighbor, and everyone's eyes showed a look of eagerness, and they longed for how good it would be if they could win the lottery.
"I thought it was just a prize of eighty-eight yuan and eighty yuan, but I didn't expect to be able to exchange so much money on the black market, if I had this money, then the life of the family would be better." Kokuzoichiro spoke his heart to everyone, and his words also aroused the thoughts of the workers.
"I don't expect to win the first, second, and third prizes now, I just hope that I can win a physical reward, and if I win the physical reward, I will take all these foods to the black market and sell them......"
"If I win a physical prize, I will eat some for my wife and children at home. The rest will be sold, and I will use the money from the sale to build a new house for my family, and now you have a new house of 100 yuan, and then the family will be seriously injured in the bright new house......"
“……”
Everyone is talking about what to do if they win. Now people are not interested in the big prizes at all, but they are attracted by the physical rewards of ten places a day, because these rewards are not only objectively valuable, but also make them feel within reach.
Inuyama Shiao looked at everyone's appearance and understood that everyone was really moved. At that moment, he continued: "In addition to asking you to help cast a vote for support, I also want to ask you to help talk to the people who set up stalls on the dock. ”
"Inuyama wants you to convince the vendors to vote for me with the daily newspaper in their hands, and if I come to sit down, it will definitely be worse for you, so Inuyama can only ask the workers for help, please."
After listening to Inuyama Shitao's words, everyone responded that there was no problem, for these people, it would not be a problem to want the vendors on the dock to help with this, anyway, whichever novel this vote is cast for is the same to participate in the lottery. Those peddlers would never turn them away for that.
Although they don't have any rights, if they have a hard time with the hawkers, it's still very simple, as long as they squat on the edge of each other's stalls if they have nothing to do, so that ordinary customers will not want to come and sell food when they see so many people.
After hearing the workers patting their chests and promising to help, Inuyama Shiao couldn't help but secretly say in his heart: "It's one step closer to winning the award." ’
Just when a group of authors outside were talking about the literary novel contest held by the Sakura Group, Ikeshang Makoto appeared in Kanda Jimbochon, Chiyoda District, which had just been merged, with his four guard wives. (March 15, 1947 (Showa 22) - Kojimachi Ward and Kanda Ward were merged to form Chiyoda Ward.) )
Walking through the crowded streets, Chi Shang Zhenyi took his four wives and stood outside a small courtyard, and looked up at the plaque on the courtyard gate, which was the house he had bought at the bank. However, before the opportunity to live, it was taken by Private Hanks.
Now Chi Shang Zhenyi doesn't care about this matter anymore, because the other party has helped him a lot in the past two years, and the relationship between the two sides is already very good.
The reason why Ji Shang Zhenyi came here today was because he received a call for help from the adjutant next to Hanks. The adjutant on the phone said that his superior, Hanks, had been delirious since he returned yesterday, his body was shaking from time to time, and his body temperature was even higher and lower.
During this time, there were only a few minutes of soberness, and it was during these few minutes of waking time that Hanks anxiously ordered his lieutenant to call Chi Shang Zhenyi in the castle immediately. Let the other party come over, he needs the other party's help, and after saying these words, he fell back into a state of delirium.
The adjutant on the side saw his own major general's appearance, although he didn't know why the other party didn't let him find a doctor, but asked the mage to come, but he still didn't hesitate to directly carry out his general's order, and immediately called Chi Shang Zhenyi on the other side of the castle, asking the other party to come over as soon as possible, and even accompanied someone to drive to pick it up, but it was postponed by Chi Shang Zhenyi.
With Chi Shang Zhenyi's four wives stepped forward and entered through the door, during which the two black and white soldiers guarding the door did not have the slightest obstruction, obviously under the orders of the people inside.
As soon as he walked into the courtyard, Chi Shang Zhenyi saw a captain and company commander in a U.S. military uniform greet him, and said directly: "Mr. Chi Shang, our General Hanks has fallen into a delirium since he came back last night, and he just woke up for a short time and asked me to call Mr. and ask him to come and rescue him." ”
"Although I don't know why General Hanks is sick and doesn't look for a doctor and looks for you, Mr. Chi Shang, but as an adjutant, I still have to ensure the general's personal health, if you can't treat General Hanks after a while, then I can only disobey his orders, I will drive General Hanks to the military region, I hope Mr. Chi Shang doesn't mind."
For the Americans' style, Chi Shang Zhenyi has already understood it in the past two years, these Yankees speak completely straightforwardly, and few people will say some obscure things around the bush, generally if there is one, say one bait and say two, even if this will offend you, the other party doesn't care at all, which is completely different from the Orientals.
Therefore, Chi Shang Zhenyi did not have a trace of disgust towards this adjutant who had just entered the door and bluntly said that if he couldn't save their general, he would take his own general to find someone else to treat him, because he was used to these Westerners coming and going.
"Don't worry, if I can't save your general, then I won't stop you from finding someone else for treatment, take me in quickly."
Hearing Chi Shang's sincere words, Captain Shuke nodded, and then he glanced at the four delicate girls in samurai uniforms, although he didn't know why this Mr. Chi Shang would take the four girls out to run errands, but these had nothing to do with him, as long as the other party could heal their general.
Without saying any nonsense, Captain Shuke directly walked forward and led the way, leading Chi Shang Zhenyi to their general's residence.
Under the leadership of Captain Shuke, Ji Shang Zhenyi and his four wives quickly followed each other through the garden in front to the rear, and as soon as he entered the house, he saw Hanks, who was pale and tied to the bed.
Although Hanks's hands and feet were tied to the head and foot of the bed with thick ropes, his body was still shaking and fighting, and with each trembling struggle, the huge wooden bed under him would make a 'crunch, crunch' sound, obviously the force of the struggle was very large, and the wooden bed was a little unbearable.
