After Gu Yanzhang finished a butter cake in a few bites, he couldn't help but savor it again and again.

This thing is quite delicious.

What he is most worried about now is that this thing is sold cheaply.

If it is sold cheaply, his family will not make money and will lose money, but if it is sold expensively, no one outside will be willing to buy it.

He had heard from his wife before that the good things she had on hand could actually be sold to those rich families in the county. After all, rich people are more generous.

However, he went to the county town in person, and according to his wife's advice, he hawked in the area where rich people lived. However, he didn't stay around those houses for long before he was driven out by the servants in those big houses...

Thinking of those particularly vicious servants in the big houses, Gu Yanzhang couldn't help but shudder.

Fortunately, he was smart, his brain worked quickly, and his legs were not weak when he ran. Otherwise, he would definitely be caught like other street vendors.

After being caught, he would definitely be beaten.

When Gu Yanzhang thought of this, he opened his mouth and wanted to tell his wife about it. But at this moment, he felt that if he told his wife about this, she would definitely think he was incompetent.

After all, as a man, he couldn't even do a small business... and he didn't make much money in this family.

Thinking of this, Gu Yanzhang couldn't help but feel inferior.

It was all his fault that he had no skills and that his family was too poor.

Otherwise, his wife wouldn't be thinking about how to make money every day.

Gu Yanzhang smiled on the surface, but he felt pain in his heart.

After taking two deep breaths, he suppressed the heavy depression in his heart.

You can't be in a hurry to make money, you can only do it step by step.

No matter what, he can at least help his wife a lot now.

At least he can make money now.

Although it is a bit hard, he can at least pay the head tax and household tax next month. There are

also various grains for the family.

Although his family only has two acres of dry land, this year they have reclaimed nearly 10 acres of wasteland on the ownerless hill next door.

That's 10 acres of wasteland!

As early as mid-March of the lunar calendar, Gu Yanzhang took the men in the family, including his old father, to plant sorghum in the ten acres of wasteland that their family had worked so hard to reclaim.

Sorghum is drought-resistant, flood-resistant, salt-tolerant, and can yield a relatively large harvest. The yield per mu is about 200 kilograms.

With the two mu of wheat and ten mu of sorghum, their whole family will definitely be able to survive this winter.

Thinking that it is already the end of May, and the ten mu of sorghum will be harvested in just over a month, Gu Yanzhang couldn't help but share this good news with his wife.

Chen Xuanxuan used to live in the city. She had never farmed.

She didn't even know what crops there were on the mountain!

She had eaten a lot of things, but she really hadn't paid attention to what they looked like at first.

When Gu Yanzhang told her about the crops, Chen Xuanxuan was confused.

However, she was still a good person. Knowing that Gu Yanzhang has become an agricultural expert, Chen Xuanxuan nodded in support and said, "That's great!"

"Dad, you just said that planting one mu of sorghum can yield about 200 kilograms. Ten mu of sorghum fields can yield about 2,000 kilograms of sorghum!"

"Our family already has this small stone mill. In the future, when the sorghum is brought home, our whole family will grind it into flour every day, and then I will make it into noodles, or pancakes. In this way, our family may be able to make some money again."

Gu Yanzhang was also very motivated when talking about making money.

"Wife, you are right. By then, our family will definitely not lack food!"

"When we earn money, I will build two new houses next to this one. Moreover, the houses must be solid and spacious. By then, we will move into the new houses. As for this stove room, I plan to spend some money to hire a few craftsmen to help my parents build a kang here. My parents are old, and with a kang in winter, they won't have to suffer from the cold when the north wind blows..."

Hearing Gu Yanzhang whispering about the plan he had been thinking about for a long time, Chen Xuanxuan couldn't help but nodded. "Boss, your idea is really very good."

"Actually, I've always felt that we have too many children in our family. Especially our boys Dazhu and Erzhu, who are already grown up. They shouldn't sleep in the same room with us. Although our sleeping area and that of the children are separated by that wall, those people outside never come into our room. They just think that we are a big family and don't care about things..."

Hearing Chen Xuanxuan say this, Gu Yanzhang was even more annoyed. The decision to build two new houses was made as soon as possible. "Wife, how much money have we saved now?"

Chen Xuanxuan's eyes flashed after hearing this. After thinking for a while, she held up three fingers and said, "Boss, after our family has been thrifty for the past six months and various efforts, I have saved nearly three taels of silver!"

Gu Yanzhang was very happy when he heard his wife say that she had nearly three taels of silver.

"Wife, are you telling the truth?"

Chen Xuanxuan glared at him lightly after hearing this. "I am your wife, why would I lie to you?"

"..."

When Gu Yanzhang was laughing foolishly, Gu Yu'an, who was sitting next to him, could no longer suppress his emotions.

He said hello several times, and then said happily, "Brother Yan, if we continue like this, by the end of next year, our family will be able to build a new house!"

Gu Yu'an has always been concerned about his grown-up grandchildren.

Although he is usually taciturn and doesn't like to talk much, he is actually worried about his grandchildren's life events every day. What

he is most worried about is that his grandchildren will become bachelors who can't find wives.

Now that his son and daughter-in-law have put the renovation of a new house on the agenda, they will definitely be able to find wives in one or two years.

Gu Yu'an's face turned red with excitement when he thought about the four generations of the Gu family living together.

"Brother Yan, it seems that selling kimchi is still quite profitable. In the future, we will go out and sell it every day..."

Gu Yu'an has always felt that selling kimchi is actually a business with no capital.
