Chapter 288 Brothers and Sisters Settle Accounts

A customer who was waiting for the food shouted, "Boss, what's that smell? Have you got some new food? It smells so good."

Gu Fei pouted, "They're selling grilled lamb skewers outside."

"Grilled lamb skewers?" The customer looked out the window and waved to Xing'er, "Go, buy a few for me to try."

Xing'er took the money and went out.

Gu Erlang had just grilled a few and brought them in for Xing'er.

The customer picked them up and ate them. He finished a few skewers in a short while. He wanted to buy more, but he couldn't stop because he had ordered more food.

Someone next to him asked him curiously, "How does this taste?"

The man smacked his lips, "One word, delicious!"

Then several customers in the store bought lamb skewers.

They all thought it was delicious.

Gu Fei sat behind the counter and watched.

She thought that this was her brother. The customers in the store would naturally eat less food after eating lamb skewers. He was stealing her business!

However, there was no other way. Gu Erlang had to be allowed to sell here for a few days. When he gradually gained ground, he could be driven to sell elsewhere.

Gu Erlang sold a lot at noon, and a few more in the afternoon. At dinner time, the customers in the store bought up the rest for him.

After Gu Erlang had sold everything, he happily closed the stall and hid under the counter to count the coins.

Gu Fei glanced at him, and when he finished counting, he was full of joy and asked, "How much did you sell it for?"

Gu Erlang smiled and said, "More than 500 coins!"

"Sister, am I going to get rich?"

"Five hundred coins a day, five taels of silver in ten days, and fifty taels in a hundred days!"

Gu Fei glanced at him and stretched out her hand to him, "Second brother, then give me the money for the chili powder."

Gu Erlang opened his mouth and said a little dejectedly, "Give it if you want, how much?"

Gu Fei stretched out a finger, "One hundred coins."

Gu Erlang's eyes widened, "You just gave me a bag of chili powder, why is it so expensive?"

Gu Fei snorted, "Second brother, there are spices in it, you can ask how expensive the spices are, and besides, this bag of yours can last for two days."

Gu Erlang counted out a hundred coins and handed them to Gu Fei with a painful heart. Gu Fei pursed her lips and laughed, the second brother is really funny.

She reminded him, "How much did you spend on buying vegetables today, as well as the money for charcoal and chili powder? All of these must be deducted to get your earnings."

Gu Erlang was stunned for a moment, nodded, muttered something, and began to calculate the bill.

After a long while, Er said, "I spent 200 coins on vegetables. The mutton is too expensive."

"I don't know how much the charcoal costs, let's say 50 coins, it shouldn't be that much, and the chili powder can be used for a day, so it's also 50 coins."

"Then I still made more than 200 coins!"

Gu Fei smiled with her lips pursed: "Is it better than driving a cart?"

Gu Erlang nodded vigorously, "Of course, it's not as hard as driving a cart!"

"Okay, second brother, pack up and go home quickly."

Gu Erlang's face showed hesitation, "I'm going back, Lanzhi--"

Gu Fei rolled his eyes at him, "Don't worry, I won't let anyone take her away with me here, and besides, Mr. Xu said he would come tomorrow."

Gu Erlang stood up and looked back, "Then, sister, I'm leaving."

Gu Erlang didn't drive the mule cart today. When he walked to the city gate, he happened to meet Gu Sanlang, and the two went home together.

After dinner, Chen and Li Chunhua went to the kitchen to clean up. Gu Erlang walked to his father hesitantly, "Dad, thank you and mother."
