Chapter 417 I Believe in Brother Gu



None of them were short of money, so they asked the other party to take several photos, which made the other party's eyes narrowed with joy.

After getting the developed photos, Gu Guizhi kept them carefully.

Zhang Meiling watched the man trying to attract more business and said, "Now that the policy has been relaxed, people are allowed to take photos here."

Two years ago, no one dared to take pictures here.

Qi Mengmeng knows that when the policies are relaxed in the future, there will be more self-employed individuals. The more people look down on self-employed individuals now, the more they will envy the earliest batch of self-employed individuals in the future.

As the first batch of self-employed individuals to "take the plunge", most of them have made a lot of money. Qi Mengmeng is definitely going to catch this wave of opportunities.

After coming out of the square, they went to a nearby park. Someone was selling soda and melon seeds at the entrance of the park. Gu Guizhi bought a lot and shared them with everyone.

Kang Kang's eyes were fixed on the soda in Gu Guizhi's hand.

Gu Guizhi asked Qi Mengmeng: "Can Kang Kang drink the soda?"

"No." Qi Huilan was afraid that Qi Mengmeng would agree, so she objected first, "An An and Kang Kang are still young, they can't drink soda."

After hearing this, Gu Guizhi immediately turned sideways to drink soda.

Kang Kang's gaze shifted to Qi Mengmeng again.

Qi Mengmeng smiled at Kang Kang and said, "You are still young, you can't drink this soda. Mom will buy you an egg cake later."

Kang Kang didn't understand what Qi Mengmeng said, but he understood that he couldn't drink, so he immediately turned up his nose in displeasure.

"Okay, Mengmeng, stop teasing him. Kang Kang will cry again soon." Qi Huilan couldn't bear to see Qi Mengmeng teasing Kang Kang, so she reminded her.

Just now, while Kang Kang's attention was on Qi Mengmeng, she had already finished drinking all the soda.

"I'll push Kang Kang, you drink the soda quickly." Qi Huilan reminded Qi Mengmeng.

Qi Mengmeng felt helpless. She just let Kang Kang look at the soda, but it seemed like she had done something wrong.

Gu Guizhi looked at Qi Mengmeng tenderly.

Since coming to the capital, Qi Mengmeng's eyes have become much more lively and her personality has become much more lively.

Qi Huilan and Zhang Meiling pushed the two children in front, while Gu Guizhi and Qi Mengmeng were talking behind.

"Guizhi, what do you think? Can I make some cakes and bread and sell them?" Qi Mengmeng said out loud the thought that had just come to her mind.

She is trying to seize the market now while there is no official notice.

Gu Guizhi didn't ask Qi Mengmeng what she was selling. Instead, he asked worriedly, "You have classes on weekdays, do you have time to sell?"

This is indeed a problem, but Qi Mengmeng doesn't think it can be overcome.

"I can find someone to help me sell it. Many of my classmates come from ordinary families. If I sell it after school or on weekends, there will definitely be someone willing to do so."

Qi Mengmeng just wants to test the waters first and won't do too much at the beginning.

The most important thing now is to buy an oven.

When she lived in the provincial capital, she built an oven in the yard, but now she plans to make bread to sell, so it would definitely be more convenient to use an oven.

The oven in her space is too advanced and definitely cannot be taken out and used. I guess the department store doesn’t sell it, so she has to go to the Friendship Store to look for it.

Gu Guizhi also thought of this problem.

"Mengmeng, are you planning to build an oven at home?"

He can help now while he is at home.

Qi Mengmeng shook her head: "I'm going to buy an oven. If there's a large one, that would be the best. If not, I'll buy a small one first. But I don't think the department store sells ovens, so I'll have to go to the Friendship Store to buy one."

Purchases at the Friendship Store cannot be made with tickets, but with foreign currency, and now neither of them has foreign exchange coupons.

"I'll find a way, or ask someone, what are your requirements for the oven?"

"The bigger the better." Qi Mengmeng only made this request.

As for functions, I guess today’s ovens don’t have that many functions, as long as they can be used it’s fine.

No matter what kind of oven you use, you need to adapt to it for a while before you know its characteristics.

"Mengmeng, what are you two talking about?" Qi Huilan shouted from the front when she saw Qi Mengmeng and Gu Guizhi stop temporarily.

Gu Guizhi and Qi Mengmeng followed.

After visiting the park, the group went to eat roast duck, and even the two children drank half a bowl of duck soup.

Seeing that both children were tired, they walked back.

When they got home, the two children had already fallen asleep. Qi Mengmeng and the others had also gone to rest. Only Gu Guizhi said goodbye to Qi Mengmeng and left.

When it was time for dinner, Gu Guizhi brought back a large machine.

"Oven?" Qi Mengmeng's eyes were full of surprise. She just mentioned the oven today and Gu Guizhi brought one back.

"Where did you buy this?"

This speed is too fast. Qi Mengmeng touched the oven, somewhat incredulous.

But she soon realized that the oven was not new, it seemed to be second-hand?

"Sister-in-law, this oven was given to my wife by foreigners when she worked as a maid in their home." said the person who carried the oven back with Qi Mengmeng.

Qi Mengmeng recalled that the man was called Du Heng, the younger brother of Gu Guizhi's comrade-in-arms, and he came on the day they moved to Wen Guo.

"Du Heng said that this oven has no use in their house, so I bought it." Qi Mengmeng asked Qi Mengmeng and put the oven in the west room.

"This thing is useless in my house. I told you I don't want money, but Brother Gu still insisted on giving me money." Du Heng hurriedly explained that he really didn't want the money.

This thing is just a decoration in their home and can at most be sold as scrap metal.

"You should pay." Qi Mengmeng nodded, her attention now focused on the oven.

With this oven, Qi Mengmeng can start her own baking business.

"Sister-in-law, I just heard Brother Gu say that you want to use this oven to make cakes. Do you think it would be possible for my wife to help?" Du Heng asked carefully.

In fact, what he wanted to ask was whether he could help Qi Mengmeng sell cakes, but he was worried that Qi Mengmeng would not agree, so he changed his way of saying it.

"I made the cake and want to sell it. Does your wife agree?"

Qi Mengmeng looked at Du Heng.

Nowadays, people’s tolerance for small vendors is not high.

"Yes." Du Heng nodded hurriedly, "Of course I do."

Qi Mengmeng was a little surprised, "You haven't even seen the cake I made, but you agreed on behalf of your wife?"

"My wife said the cake was delicious. I believe Brother Gu." Du Heng nodded confidently and added, "I believe my sister-in-law, too."

Qi Mengmeng smiled. She didn't expect Du Heng to be so good at talking.

"Since you believe me, I will use this oven to make a simple cake for you to try."

Qi Mengmeng first turned on the power to test it, and then started to knead the dough and beat the eggs.

With limited materials, Qi Mengmeng made the simplest chiffon cake.

When she turned on the oven, a rich aroma of cake filled the whole room. Gu Guizhi and Du Heng, who were talking in the room, looked at each other and went to the west room together.
