Female supporting roles rely on food to save themselves

Chapter 218
Gu Xiang knew that the girls in her family felt that she had suffered a disadvantage.

These days, there is never a shortage of ingredients in Fuyunlou. Whether it is vegetables that are rare in winter or fruits that are not available locally, Fuyunlou has them all.

There are a few well-informed diners who squat outside every day because they can occasionally even eat very expensive things at a cheap price.

Qiu Li didn't think that since she didn't have any shortages, she didn't have to worry about the supply of goods anymore, but she didn't think it was urgent. If 'Gu Ji' wanted to have her own food supply place, she could take her time. Their little lady has With such ability, there is still land, what can't be done?
Wouldn't it be a pity to cooperate with these villagers now and hand over the benefits to others in vain?

When they were by Miss Xixi's side before, Miss Xixi always told them that the most important thing to live in this world is to hold on to their money, and they must guard their money bags at all times, even if their parents come to ask for it, they can't Empty the family to give.

Qiuli saw her little lady leaning against the dressing table, smiling at her, her eyes seemed to have stars in her eyes.

Her heart was beating wildly, and she covered her forehead and moaned.

Although the little lady smiles beautifully, it's useless to just smile, and it doesn't come with money.

In the past, Qiu Li must have exploded, and she had to talk about the little lady directly, but recently she was explicitly hinted at by her younger sister, and after seeing her 'Snow Eagle''s various behaviors, she finally knew that she was really irritable a while ago With a straight head, she doesn't look like a girl at all.

Not to mention others, even Zhou Dong would not point fingers at their prison boss like this.

"Hey!"

She knew she had to change.

Qiu Li was racking her brains to babble, when Cherry's voice came from outside: "Is it true, is Li Zijun sick? Is he not afraid of dying?"

Wang Tiezhu was also full of anger: "He raised the purchase price three times, and asked the villagers not to sell the ingredients to us 'Gu Ji'. What a lunatic, let me see how long he can keep it?"

Qiu Li: "..."

Gu Xiang was also a little surprised: "So it is!"

No wonder several households in Dali Village stopped supplying their own restaurants a few days ago.

"puff!"

Qiu Li was originally full of irritability, but now she couldn't help smiling.

The master and the servant looked at each other, and hurriedly dressed up to do things. As for Li Zijun's dirty tricks, not to mention Gu Xiang, even Qiu Li didn't take Cherry seriously.

Cherry was even more sneering: "If you have the ability, let them collect our Guzhuang's chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep together. He will pay three times as much, and we will also sell our own ones to him!"

Wang Tiezhu poked his head outside: "I heard that some people came to Gu Zhuang secretly to collect ingredients, and they paid four times the price. It's just that we Gu Zhuang people are not so short-sighted and refuse to sell."

Gu Xiang also smiled: "I really can't sell it for four times. Next time, if he is willing to pay ten times, let's sell it. Our Guzhuang has good water and soil, and the chickens and ducks we raise also have aura, so we should sell it at a high price."

"If they ask not to supply me, don't refuse. Be ambiguous. For example, you can agree that if they don't supply me, 'Yijianxian' will take away ten times as much of everyone's ingredients."

In the past few years, there have been years of famines, and the villagers have had a hard time. This year, banditry has occurred even more, and the harvest has failed. Every household has no food left, not even food, and people can’t eat enough. It’s easy to feed chickens, ducks, and geese. less.

So, are there any ingredients near Shouling County?Indeed missing!

That is to say, after Gu Xiang came back, he found Shimen as an excuse to buy a lot of food, a lot of good seeds, and what kind of fish fry, chickens and ducks, and sold them to the villagers in Guzhuang at a fair price plus points. After the past, the days have a rush.

Gu Xiang wanted to build a chicken farm and said that there was artificial egg hatching technology. The villagers responded so enthusiastically that they had no doubt whether it was true or not. They believed in Gu Xiang and "Gu Ji" because they had taken advantage of it earlier. The village canteen set up by Gu Xiang saved the lives of the whole village.

Even so, in such a world, the folks will always be short of food, and will never feel that there is too little food.

But "Gu Ji" is not only self-sufficient now, in fact, Gu Xiang is still constantly subsidizing the canteen, that is, subsidizing the people in Guzhuang.

Regardless of the fact that when the restaurant first opened, the elders of the Guzhuang clan repeatedly asked the clan members, emphasizing that the butchers and hunters who operate the meat business must ensure freshness when delivering meat to Guzhuang. , It seems that "Gu Ji" relies on Gu Zhuang to provide ingredients.

But in fact, if the villagers of Guzhuang want to truly repay Gu Ji, it may take at least... a year.

The only thing that is used for fried chicken is more chicken. If the source of the chicken was stuck a while ago, the business may have to be delayed for a few days, but there are already a lot of live chickens purchased recently, enough to last for three or four months.

Now a chicken farm has been built in the village, and the chicks will eat the feed specially formulated by her, and they will definitely be able to be slaughtered in four months at most.

Qiuli and Yingying settled their accounts for a while, but they didn't take Li Zijun's actions to heart.

Gu Xiang doesn't care about him even more. Not only is she busy with 'Gu Ji', she also cares about the farm.

Now the recruitment work on the farm has extended from the villagers to the refugees.

After adding so many people in one breath, these people depended on her for food, and Gu Xiang felt a little pressure after a long absence.

In fact, Gu Xiang himself didn't expect that when the news of her farm's acceptance spread, many refugees who wandered around Shouling came to Gu Zhuang.

Although there is an old dog here, this guy has developed a pair of sharp eyes in the military camp in the early years, and he is quite accurate in seeing people. With him in charge, there is no need to worry about recruiting people with bad character, but there will be more problems if there are more refugees.

On this day, the sky was still sunny in the morning, and the snow began to fall after a gust of north wind.

Gu Xiang looked at the sky, and didn't go to Gu Ji after noon, but went to the farm to recruit new shacks. After all, she has a pair of insightful eyes.

……

The clouds were thick and the snow was heavy on the shoulders.

"Mother, I, I'm so hungry."

Liu Aman tugged on Auntie's sleeves, and walked along the path paved with bluestone step by step.

Her feet hurt badly, and her stomach was cramping with hunger.

Zhao Susu withdrew her gaze from staring at the stone road, took out a small piece of black pancake the size of two fingers, handed it to Ah Man, and said with a smile: "Good Ah Man, let's read poems when we are hungry. Not hungry anymore."

Liu Aman: "..."

Sure enough, Zhao Susu began to recite poems. Some of them had been learned by her, and some of them were written by her when she heard them. A cluster of flowers by the roadside can make a poem, a tree can make a poem, and so can the snow in the sky.

Just for this newly built road, A Niang wrote seven or eight poems, praising the road builders that there are heaven and earth.

Under the wind and snow, Ah Man gnawed on the mustache while listening to A Niang's poems and lyrics, unavoidably lost his mind.

Her mother is not in good shape now, her face is very rough, and in terms of appearance, she is far inferior to the woman that man brought home.

Liu Aman thought wildly for a while, feeling even hungrier, and heard Aniang chanting in her ears: "...the disk of the water essence..."

She suddenly smelled a strong fragrance.

"Is it a fish?"

Liu Aman's nose twitched, and his mind went blank for a moment, "Aniang, I'm hungry!"

Zhao Susu swallowed her saliva, and sighed inwardly—now, no poems will work, she wants to eat.

Looking up, I saw a shed built at the entrance of the village in front of me. There seemed to be many people standing or sitting under the shed.

"Aniang, that's Brother Dongzi. Didn't he get kicked out by his stepmother? Why is he here? This is Gu Zhuang, right?"
