Chapter 36: A Lot of Colorful Money
"I know. It's about 5,000. I can earn enough for tuition, as well as living expenses for Xiao An and I to go to school in the city. I don't need to use money from home."
After saying this, Gu Jin turned around, picked up the big spoon beside him, scooped the braised pig's head from the big basin and put it into a small aluminum basin beside him. This was for eating at home.
It is undeniable that Chen Hong breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Gu Jin say that she would not use the family's money, but she still did not support her setting up a stall.
Gu Jiajie narrowed his eyes, staring at his cousin's figure, and said nonchalantly: "Some time ago, I went to the county with Yuanzi and found that there were many people setting up stalls on the street. No one was in charge, and they could buy whatever they wanted."
"Really?" Mr. Gu asked.
"Well, if you don't believe me, you can ask Yuanzi. We were shocked at the time, but later we found out that street vendors are allowed now, and the inspections are very loose, and they won't kill you for no reason."
Gu Jin could tell that her cousin was talking to her. She put the meat in the aluminum basin on the table and looked at Gu Jiajie deeply.
"Grandpa, uncle, aunt, come and try this braised pig's head to see if it's delicious."
She took out another bowl and served one to each of them.
Chen Hong's face still looked unhappy, but the old man didn't say anything after asking his son a question, and she didn't know what to say.
Mr. Gu sat down at the table, and then everyone else sat down.
"Try it quickly, it won't taste good if it gets cold."
“It’s delicious!”
Gu Minmin, who had been as quiet as a chicken, exclaimed at the first bite of the braised pig's head.
The others were the same. They felt the braised pig head was so delicious that they wanted to swallow their tongues. They had never eaten such delicious meat in their lives.
Gu Jiajie ate several pieces in a row, then looked up and stared at Gu Jin eagerly: "Xiao Jin, your braised pork will definitely sell! It's so delicious!"
Gu Jin smiled and nodded, looking at the other members of the Gu family.
Uncle Gu was concentrating on eating. Chen Hong's face still didn't look very good, but it was much better than before.
Old Master Gu swallowed the fragrant but not greasy pig head that almost melted in his mouth, then looked up at Gu Jin.
"You can go sell things, Jin girl, but don't let anyone find out that you are the child of the old Gu family. If anything happens, your family won't be able to take responsibility for you. You can handle the rest."
The old man had no choice but to say this. The eldest son was here and the eldest wife was also here. They knew everything, and he couldn't help this girl in any way.
However, the fact that he spoke indicated that he agreed with Gu Jin's idea of setting up a stall.
Gu Jin smiled: "I see, thank you grandpa."
She knew that since the old man had spoken, it was settled that she would set up a stall to sell things.
Gu Jiajie, who was sitting nearby, heard his grandfather's words and looked at Gu Jin with...admiration.
What Gu Jin did today was something he had been preparing for a long time.
He stopped going to school after graduating from junior high school. It's not right for him to be idle all day long. His family also controls his spending, which is too uncomfortable.
Some time ago, he discussed with his two brothers whether they should start buying and selling things, that is, become profiteers.
Before he could do anything, his cousin took action. He was actually a little envious at this moment.
After the family had finished eating the braised pork head, Gu Dechang took out the purse and put it on the table.
"Here's the money from selling meat this afternoon."
Gu Jin took the money bag and poured the money inside onto the empty space on the dining table.
"Wow! That's a lot of money!"
It was the first time that Gu Minmin saw so much money. The colorful things looked very beautiful.
