Chapter 206 What Happened

Shopkeeper Liu secretly sighed. He originally thought that the peppers had been bought out by Yipin Pavilion, but it turned out that they had not. This was easy to say.

But in the past few months, he could only watch Yipin Pavilion make a lot of money.

Shopkeeper Liu stood up and bowed, "Second Master Gu, I'm busy in the store, so I won't keep any more. If the peppers are harvested, you must notify me first."

Gu Zhang laughed, "Of course, I'll let my boy send you a letter when the time comes."

After sending Shopkeeper Liu away, Gu Zhang hummed a tune and returned to the backyard.

Chen asked with a smile: "What's wrong? Seeing you like this, is there any good news?"

Gu Zhang smiled and said: "It's really good news. The shopkeeper of Zuixianlou wants to buy peppers from our family. I guess, the more time passes, the more people will know about this pepper, and the more people will buy it."

"Our peppers will be sold without any worries."

Chen said angrily: "Are you still worried about this? I knew that peppers would be sold without any worries after they were grown. That Zhu Da Shao is not a fool. How could he spend so much money to buy them if the products are not good?"

Gu Zhang bowed: "My wife is wise."

Chen smiled with her lips pursed, "I don't know where you learned to be so slick every day."

During dinner, Gu Zhang discussed with Chen, "It's already the New Year, and it's time to send this year's silver and grain to mother."

Chen said "hmm", "Then should we take coarse grains or fine grains?"

Gu Zhang paused. In previous years, he took coarse grains, but now his family eats rice and flour every meal, so it seems unreasonable to give coarse grains to his mother.

He thought for a while, "How about giving her two taels of silver in total, and buying whatever she likes to eat."

Chen nodded, it was good to do so, so as to avoid being criticized.

After dinner, Gu Zhang waved his hand and called Gu Fei, "Let's go to the farm over there with Dad."

Gu Fei was free at the moment, so she happily followed her father.

When they arrived at the farm, Gu Zhang went to the upper room to give the old lady silver, and Gu Fei went to her aunt's house.

The aunt's family was making ginger candy.

The family had no income, so they had to find ways to make money.

When Gu Fei walked in, she saw a long iron nail nailed to a pillar in the house, and her cousin was pulling candy.

He threw the syrup on the nail, it got stuck, stretched it, threw it up again, got stuck, and stretched it again, repeating this action over and over again.

Gu Fei saw that the candy had been pulled white, and a sweet fragrance filled the room.

The eldest aunt was sprinkling flour on a chopping board, and turned back to smile at Gu Fei, "Xiao Fei, you came just in time, the candy is almost ready, and I'll cut a few for you to try later."

"This hot candy is soft and tastes better than the ones sold outside."

So Gu Fei waited obediently to eat the candy.

The candy was ready, and the eldest cousin put it on the chopping board and rolled it into thin strips. The eldest aunt took a pair of scissors, smeared it with oil, and cut it diagonally, and the ginger candies came out one by one.

Juhua took one and gave it to Gu Fei, and Gu Fei put it in her mouth. The soft candy was still warm and a little sticky when chewed.

Juhua chewed the ginger candy and said proudly, "I have been going to the city with my eldest brother to sell candy every morning recently, and I can sell dozens of coins a day."

"Juhua is really capable." Gu Fei praised with a smile.

Juhua blushed, "No way, my cousin is the one who is really capable."

As she was talking, a sharp woman's voice suddenly sounded outside, "Shameless thing, what are you doing?"

Gu Fei felt that it sounded like Qian's voice, what happened?
