The first wife of the strongest peasant daughter

Chapter 36
Gu Chuhan actually wanted to exchange these for some clothes and quilts for his family members, but they have just managed to get enough food and clothing, and they still have huge debts to pay off. Money is a necessity, and other non-essentials can only be placed in the back row!

She looked at Gu Ranniang, "I can trust the proprietress as a person, and I am amazed and admired by the proprietress' craftsmanship. I wonder if you need an apprentice?"

Hearing what she said, Hong Yu's smile deepened, "What kind of request is this! If you come, I can't wait to ask for it!"

"It's not me, it's my second sister!" Gu Chuhan couldn't do embroidery and needle work.

Hong Yu was a little disappointed, this Gu Jiulang had a quick mind, even if he didn't go to the needlework girl, if he followed her for a few years, he would definitely be able to make great achievements in it!I want to ask her again, seeing Gu Chuhan's expression of no interest, and looking at Gu Raniang, although her embroidery work is a bit poor, but she can still do well with her belt, and she can also take Gu Jiulang with her.Thinking of this, she nodded directly with a smile, "Okay! Niang Ran's female celebrity is not bad either! I don't dare to say that I can learn more tricks in the embroidery workshop, and it will definitely be better!"

Gu Raniang couldn't tell that she wanted to take Gu Chuhan in.Although Jiulang is a girl who disguises herself as a man, but if she is a female red needleworker, more people will call her a sissy and a bad face!Let's talk about it later!He hurriedly thanked Hongyu, saying that he would definitely learn from it.

Gu Chuhan didn't ask for the money, "Just treat it as the tuition fee for my second sister's apprenticeship!"

Hongyu saw that she really didn't want it, and then thought of the two or three taels she asked them to get the coal briquettes stove just now, she didn't care about it, "This is not the case! My Jinxiu Workshop has also accepted others! It's all If you haven’t paid any tuition fees, how can I want you! Besides, your second sister is very good, and you don’t need to teach, you can get started soon! Then it’s time to earn money for me!”

Gu Chuhan looked at the two younger apprentices in Jinxiufang, and saw that they responded with a smile, so he didn't refuse anymore, and accepted the three taels of silver handed over by Hong Yu.

Then he went to Boss Zhou, who sold coal, and he kept his promise, so he took three liang of silver and gave it to Gu Chuhan.

This time they have six taels, plus the previous two taels, they have eight taels of silver, "It's finally a little bit of capital, and I can do other things!"

Gu Raniang couldn't be happier. Although she didn't want to leave home, she didn't feel worried about her home, but she could learn how to be a female celebrity and do some work in the embroidery workshop. In the future, she can also make ready-made clothes by herself. They can open a tailor shop and start a small business to earn money. money.Now her craftsmanship is okay for making ordinary clothes, but not for delicate clothes.And when she went to the embroidery workshop, she could also save a ration for the family!
This was discussed by the whole family.With Hong Yu's consent, Gu Raniang packed up her things when she got home, and rushed to Jinxiufang after the fifteenth day.

Because Gu Chuhan found an urgent job for the whole family, "The Lantern Festival is coming soon, let's make some lanterns and sell them!"

Mrs. Gu blinked, "No one in our family knows how to make lanterns?"

Gu Raniang, Gu Shilang, and Gu Ruoniang looked at Gu Chuhan at the same time.

With a smile in his eyes, Gu Chuhan said, "Of course it's me! We have some capital in hand now, enough materials to buy, make some marquee lanterns, and then make some lanterns, how much money can be made for this Lantern Festival." It's done, and you should be able to earn a little money doing this.

"I originally thought that on the Lantern Festival, I would make some Lantern Festival, set up a small stall outside with wontons, and earn some money to subsidize the family." Mrs. Gu said her thoughts.

As soon as she said wonton, Gu Chuhan thought of the amazing tiger skin wonton she had eaten in a small town where she went on a business trip.

She has eaten all kinds of wonton dumplings, tiger skin eggs, tiger skin green peppers, tiger skin beans, etc., but she has never combined these two kinds to make tiger skin wontons!She fell in love with it after one meal. When she was not busy with research, she went there almost every day and ordered two bowls.

It's also because she ordered two bowls every time, and she ate them clean every time. The old couple who opened the small shop laughed when they saw her. She had heard of the practice of tiger skin wontons, and she still remembered it.

After time travelling, she was eating chaff, and all she wanted was to let the whole family eat bran to their fullest. How could she replace the chaff with coarse grains, and then replace the coarse grains with fine grains.So far, they still eat noodles, so they don't have much energy to think about those delicacies.

"Then let's make tiger skin wontons! We also need to get a stove, pots, spoons, carts, tables and chairs!" She listed the problems first, and then solved them one by one.

Mrs. Gu sighed when she heard the opening of her mouth behind her, "These things cost a lot of money, and if you just sell them for a day or two, you won't be able to get back the money!"

"Then...how about we still make lanterns for sale? It doesn't cost much, and we don't need to buy stoves, pots, tables and chairs!" Gu Raniang looked at the two of them, "We only have eight liang of silver, and we can't invest all of it! "

Mrs. Gu nodded in agreement, "You can't vote for all of them! A small booklet of two or three is almost enough!"

Gu Chuhan thought for a while, "Two-pronged approach!"

"Ah!? What are you doing with both?" Gu Shilang opened his eyes wide.

"Then even if we can do it, the capital is not enough!" Gu Raniang also said.

Mrs. Gu also disagreed, "It's only [-] taels in total, if you do both, we won't have any left!"

Gu Chuhan thought differently, "Since you have an idea, let's do it! The money earned is used as capital, and it won't produce money if you just keep it at home! Although there are many things to do, you must be very busy, but you will definitely be rewarded when you are done!"

"Don't be afraid to be busy! I'm afraid that all these taels of money will be put into it!" Mrs. Gu frowned, thinking about how much money she would need to buy a pair of things, and how she could sell them to get back the cost.

Gu Chuhan took the paper and made a list on it, "First figure out how many things we need, how much we spend, and the time we need to do both."

"Okay!" The whole family gathered together and counted for a long time. The cost of making lanterns is less, and there are still several days until the Lantern Festival, so we can make less and put them next to the wonton stall for Gu Chuhan to watch .

The wonton stall is a big one, you can borrow the cart first, and buy the necessary things first.

After discussing, Mrs. Gu and Gu Chuhan went to the fifth room to borrow a scooter.

When Mrs. Wang heard that they were going to set up a wonton stall, she guessed that Gu Dalang might be filial to the silver, so she asked them, "Is the capital enough? The wonton stall not only needs rice, noodles and meat stuffing, but also pots, bowls, stoves, tables, chairs and benches. money!"

"Enough! Enough! We are going to rent tables, chairs, benches, and stoves in the county. If we don't have to buy them back, we will save a lot of money!" Mrs. Gu knew what she wanted, but if she really wanted to take money from their family, the fifth child would definitely not want it.

Mrs. Wang nodded, "That's fine! If there's something wrong, mother, tell me!"

Gu Chuhan thanked her and took the cart away.

As soon as they left, Lian ran over, "Fifth brother and sister! What are you doing borrowing the scooter?" Mysterious, there must be something wrong!
