Shopkeeper Liu secretly let out a breath. He originally thought that the chili pepper was bought out by Yipin Pavilion, but it turned out that it was not. That would be easy to explain.
But in the past few months, I could only watch helplessly as Yipinge made a lot of money.
Shopkeeper Liu stood up and bowed his hands, "Second Master Gu, I'm busy in the store, so I won't leave any more. If these peppers fall to the ground, you have to be the first to notify me."
Gu Zhang laughed, "I'll definitely do it. , let my boy deliver the letter to you then."
After seeing Shopkeeper Liu off, Gu Zhang hummed a tune and returned to the backyard.
Chen asked with a smile: "Why, seeing you like this, what good thing can't happen?"
Gu Zhang said with a smile: "It's a good thing. The shopkeeper of Zuixianlou came to us to buy chili peppers. I guess it will be better if this goes on "The more people know about this pepper, the more people will buy it."
"We don't have to worry about selling our peppers."
Chen said angrily, "You're still worried about this? I already knew that I wouldn't have to worry about growing peppers. " Sell it, then Young Master Zhu is not a fool. How can he pay so much money to buy it if it is not good?"
Gu Zhang bowed and said, "My wife is wise."
Mrs. Chen pursed her lips and smiled, "You are doing this every day. , I don't know where I learned to speak glibly."
During dinner, Gu Zhang discussed with Chen, "It's the New Year, it's time to give this year's money and food to my mother."
Chen said, "Okay." He asked, "Should we get coarse grains or fine grains?"
Gu Zhang paused. In previous years, he always got coarse grains, but now that his family only eats rice and white flour, it seems unreasonable to give coarse grains to my mother.
He thought for a while, "How about giving her a total of twenty taels of silver and buying her whatever she likes."
Mrs. Chen nodded, that's fine, so as not to be criticized.
After dinner, Gu Zhang waved to Gu Fei, "Let's go with dad to the village over there."
Gu Fei was having nothing to do at the moment, so she followed her dad happily.
When they arrived at Zhuangzi, Gu Zhang went to the house to give the old lady some money, while Gu Fei sneaked into his aunt's house.
My aunt's house is making ginger candies.
The family has no income, so they have to find ways to make money.
When Gu Fei walked in, she saw a long iron nail nailed to a pillar in the room, and her eldest cousin was pulling out candy.
Throw the syrup onto the nail, catch it, stretch it, throw it up again and catch it, stretch it again, and repeat this action over and over again.
Gu Fei saw that the candy had turned white, and a sweet fragrance filled the room.
The aunt was sprinkling flour on a chopping board. She turned around and smiled at Gu Fei, "Xiao Fei came just in time. The candy is almost ready. I'll cut some for you to try."
"This hot candy is very soft. The ones sold outside are delicious."
So Gu Fei waited obediently to eat the sweets.
After the candy was pulled out, my cousin put it on the chopping board and rolled it into thin strips. My aunt took a pair of scissors, greased it with oil, and cut it diagonally, and pieces of ginger candy came out.
Juhua took one to Gu Fei, and Gu Fei put it in his mouth. The soft candy was still warm and a bit sticky to the teeth when chewed.
While chewing ginger candy, Juhua said proudly, "I have been going to the city with my brother to sell candy every morning recently, and we can sell it for dozens of pennies a day."
"Juhua is really capable." Gu Fei praised with a smile.
Juhua's face turned red, "No way, my cousin is really capable."
As he was talking, a sharp woman's voice suddenly sounded outside, "Shameless thing, what are you doing?"
Gu Fei sounded like Qian's voice, what happened?
