Having no other choice, Madam Peng mustered her courage and went to ask Grandma Gu.
Grandma Gu usually has a blank expression on her face. At this moment, she was sitting by the fire talking to Grandma Xiao when she saw Madam Peng coming over. She looked at Madam Peng with a question in her eyes.
Like a primary school student facing a teacher, Madam Peng honestly expressed her thoughts.
Grandma Gu pondered for a moment and said, "Old Xiao and I made this out of boredom. We don't know how long it will take to grow. Let's forget about the collaboration. When we start, you can come and see for yourself, and then you can make one too."
Grandma Xiao explained that they set up the farm mainly to make it convenient for the restaurant, as it would be easier to raise their own livestock; otherwise, they would have to go all the way to Cizhou.
When Madam Peng received the letter, she said that when the time came to start, she would send someone to give her a message so she could go and see if the two of them would be willing to teach her.
"What's there to teach?" she thought to herself, but Grandma Gu still agreed to her words.
Grandma Gu wanted to start a breeding farm for a simple reason: to make things easier for Grandpa Gu.
There was nothing she could do. Ever since Cai Xiaolian became pregnant and gave birth, the restaurant had been managed by Grandpa Gu. Every time she saw Grandpa Gu giving instructions to the manager and the manager coming to report, she felt that her brother Chuan was exhausted.
Uncle Gu grows vegetables and fruits in Chunnan City, and seafood can now be transported directly from the Southern Frontier. Only meat needs to be frequently traded with Cizhou or Izumo Kingdom.
Grandma Gu thought about it and said, "Okay, we'll raise them ourselves."
Chickens, ducks, and fish can be raised; pigs can be raised; sheep can be raised; and even rabbits can be raised by ourselves!
After discussing it with Grandma Xiao, Grandma Xiao thought it was a good idea.
When Grandma Xiao was young, her family was also a villager. Her parents both knew medicine. They lived in the village, farmed, raised livestock, and had a medical skill that others didn't have.
Inspired by Gu Nian, Grandma Xiao and Gu Xin have also researched several medicines specifically for treating livestock diseases over the past year, mainly for pigs, such as when pigs get an upset stomach or lose their appetite.
The two old ladies selected a hilltop and paid money to register and buy it at the government office. Chicken coops, pig pens, and sheep pens were already built. During the day, the animals were allowed to roam freely, and at night they were put into their pens.
They specifically chose a family of four to be in charge of this hilltop.
Grandma Gu also bought cement and built a wall at the foot of the mountain to prevent large animals from entering.
Anyway, in a few months, this hilltop will be able to gradually supply meat to the restaurant.
As for how to divide the income, Grandma Gu had her own plans and intended to discuss it when the family sat down together on the 29th to talk about next year's plans.
Grandma Gu has three sons, all of whom are married and have children. Although they haven't separated the family property, and the children aren't the type to fight over money, Grandma Gu still intends to clarify the matter.
She had a plan for every piece of property in the family.
That night, both the Peng family and the Gu family were in high spirits. Peng Sanlang's failed marriage proposal to Gu Xin did not strain the relationship between the two families. Of course, Old Master Peng then set his sights on Gu Si, thinking that Gu Si was only twelve years old and he would wait for her to grow up for two more years. He believed that two years of getting to know each other would be enough. He refused to believe that Lu Zheng and Gu Xin could get together in two or three years, but his grandson and Gu Si could not.
He had this idea in mind, and that night he went home and reminded Peng Silang and Peng Wulang that they should spend more time in front of Sisi.
