Rebirth in 1958: Getting rich starts from Nanluoguxiang

Dabao received dozens of sets of men's and women's spring and autumn police uniforms from the warehouse of the Security Department. These were the uniforms that were revised in November 58. The tops were white and the pants were navy blue. The difference between the men's and women's uniforms was the red lines sewn on the hats and sides of the pants. The men's uniforms were wider and the women's uniforms were narrower.

A dozen washbasins, two boxes of soap, a pile of men's and women's Liberation rubber shoes, and a few pairs of women's black cloth shoes were found in the warehouse. Wu Fan and Lao Shen packed the spare parts into two large bags, which were definitely too big to fit on the sidecar motorcycle.

Dabao went to the fleet, found an experienced driver, and gave him two packs of ordinary Zhonghua cigarettes. The experienced driver happily loaded the cigarettes for him and took them to the commune.

After Dabao finished filling out the list, he asked Wu Fan to send it to the logistics department for filing, and he went to the firearms department next door to pick up the gun. He was very familiar with the chief of the firearms department, Lao Cao. They had worked together for more than ten years in their previous life and had a good relationship, but there was a big age gap between them and they had no common topics.

But he has never formally come into contact with Lao Cao in this life.

The firearms department was like a detention center's visiting room, with a large iron fence separating the inner and outer rooms.

Lao Cao was reading a newspaper. When he saw Dabao pushing the door open, he quickly took off his reading glasses and stood up.

"Xiao Qin? Why are you here? How is Mingyue doing at your place?"

Dabao didn't pass the cigarette to Lao Cao. Firstly, he didn't know how to smoke, and secondly, there were ammunition everywhere and fireworks were strictly prohibited. He took out a box of tea, which was certainly not top-notch, but it was also Wang Guohua's fine product, and handed it to Lao Cao.

"Uncle Cao, don't worry, I will take good care of Mingyue. This is the tea I got from Director Wang. Please try it."

Old Cao happily took the tea leaves and said, "Little Mingyue was so happy when she came back that day. She kept talking about you. I knew she was moved. Xiao Qin, you must treat Mingyue well. This child has had a hard time."

"Uncle Cao, please don't worry, I will treat Mingyue well."

"Okay, Xiao Qin, do you want a gun or bullets?"

Dabao handed over the form he had filled out, and Lao Cao took his reading glasses and looked at the form carefully.

"Ten Type 54 pistols, 500 rounds of ammunition, three Type 56 semi-automatic rifles, 500 rounds of ammunition, three Type 56 submachine guns, 1,000 rounds of ammunition..."

"Kid, what are you going to do with so little ammunition? Double the bullets. I have two Brownings here. You can fill them up. They're perfect for girls."

"Thank you, Uncle Cao. Can you find me some shoulder holsters? This crappy gun is dragging my belt down."

"Hey, why didn't you tell me earlier? I have an American M7 holster here, made of pure cowhide. Wait, I'll get it for you."

Two big bags, one for the gun and one for the bullets, and seven shoulder holsters. This is Dabao. No one else can carry it.

Dabao put the bag into the sidecar. He had to go to Xie Hui's place and buy Zuo Mingyue and Daya's leather shoes. He also bought Nei Liansheng's cloth shoes at Dashilan, not far from the Municipal Bureau.

He calculated that the dozen or so shoe tickets in the space were just enough, and at this moment he started thinking about the black market again.

When we got to Xie Hui's place, we gave him a sheep, which almost made the boy go crazy with joy. Xie Hui took out all the snacks delivered today, which weighed seven or eight kilograms, and gave Dabao three kilograms of White Rabbit milk candy. He didn't want any money except the money for four pairs of leather shoes.

Dabao was not a errand boy either. He took out a box of canned peaches from the trunk and gave them to Xie Hui. These were good things. As the director of the supply and marketing cooperative, Xie Hui only saw a few times a year. People used these cans as gifts, one or two bottles at most. Dabao gave gifts by the box, and the aura of a prodigal son was overwhelming, making it impossible to refuse.

There was only one box of canned peaches left in the space, but Dabao went to the cannery to find Li Dongliang and got a big deer leg. It weighed at least 70 or 80 kilograms. Li Dongliang was so happy that he not only got 20 boxes of canned apples for Dabao, but also 5 boxes of canned peaches. Now the space was full again.

It was already past six when Dabao returned to the police station on his motorcycle. As soon as he entered the yard, Zuo Mingyue rushed out and shouted, "Quick! There's a call from home. Wenwen was pushed into a ditch and has passed out. She's been sent to the General Hospital..."

Dabao turned the accelerator and the motorcycle spun on the spot and rushed out of the police station.

Dabao put all the things in the sidecar into the space. His hands were shaking and his mind was blank. He just stepped on the accelerator and the motorcycle almost flew up. Fortunately, the road from the commune to the city was very smooth. If it was a road in the countryside, it would have been a big accident.

In just twenty minutes, the motorcycle rushed into the courtyard of the Army General Hospital and stopped at the steps at the gate with an emergency brake.

The harsh sound frightened the soldiers on guard so much that they raised their guns. But when they saw the uniform on Dabao, they put down their guns.

Dabao pulled out the car keys, only to feel his legs go weak and he could hardly stand up. He climbed up the stairs using his hands and feet, leaning against the door frame and breathing heavily.

He just felt a pounding sound in his head and his heart was about to jump out of his chest.

The soldier on guard came over to help him, but Dabao bit his lip and subconsciously blocked his way: "No, no thanks, thank you..."

He lifted the door curtain and slowly walked into the hospital lobby. He looked left and right, and felt that the people passing by in front of him were distorted, like ghosts.

Qin Qingyou was pacing in the hall with an anxious look on his face. As soon as he saw Dabao, he ran over. He was shocked to see that Dabao's face was pale.

"Dabao, Dabao, what's wrong with you?"

Dabao stared at him for a while before he recovered. He grabbed Qin Qingyou and shouted, "Dad, where's Wenwen? Where is she?"

"On the third floor..."

Dabao let go of his hand and rushed out directly. He took three steps at a time, and scared the people going up and down the stairs to hide aside.

As soon as Dabao went up to the third floor, he saw his mother, aunt, and nanny Aunt Xu standing in the corridor.

Dabao rushed over, and Lu Xiu'e and Bai Xiuying quickly grabbed him.

"Where's Wenwen? How's she?"

Lu Xiu'e wiped away her tears and said, "They're trying to save her. Your aunt is also inside. The doctor said they want to drain the sewage out of her chest."

Dabao looked at the red light and door of the emergency room. He took two steps back, leaned against the wall, and slowly sat down.

"What happened? Why did Wenwen fall into the ditch? Who pushed her in?" His voice was muffled, as if it came from his chest.

Aunt Xu shed tears and said painfully: "It's all my fault, it's all my fault..."

Dabao raised his bloodshot eyes, stared at Aunt Xu, and said word by word, "Tell me what's going on?"

Lu Xiu'e and Bai Xiuying pulled Dabao up one by one and made him sit on a long chair.

Aunt Xu sobbed as she recounted what had happened.

This afternoon around 4 o'clock, Aunt Xu went to pick up Wenwen from school. When she came back, she passed by the service center and saw many people buying vegetables. It turned out that the military service center had some vegetables shipped from the south, so everyone came to buy them.

Aunt Xu saw that there were too many people and was afraid that Wenwen would get hurt, so she let Wenwen play outside while she went in to buy some food.

When she came out from buying groceries, she saw a lot of people gathered around a roadside ditch. She also heard that someone pushed a little girl of five or six years old into the ditch.

Aunt Xu didn't see Wenwen, and she felt a pang of regret. She squeezed into the crowd with her basket, and saw Wenwen lying on the ground covered in mud. It turned out that she had been rescued.

Aunt Xu was so scared that she quickly threw away the basket and rushed to give Wenwen first aid. This is a necessary skill for a nanny in a leader's family. You need to know a lot of first aid knowledge.

Aunt Xu sucked out the mud from Wenwen's mouth until Wenwen started breathing again. At this time, the ambulance arrived. Aunt Xu asked someone to report to the Lu family and then followed the ambulance to the general hospital...
