Chapter 406 Borrowing Money

The value of    is that Zhang Caotou, who was relatively idle during this time, came to Gu Ziyi's side to brush up on his presence when he had something to do.

   Soon the patriarch and his wife understood what Zhang Caotou meant.

   But as long as he doesn't stay overnight and doesn't need to be strong, no one interferes in their affairs.

   Gu Chengye and his wife finally built two huts at the foot of the mountain because of the rebuilding of the mother goddess. They sold tea and incense candles. The business was not big, but it was quite prosperous.

   On this day, Zhou Ying and Gu Chengrui were mowing the sweet potato vines in the field, the village chief came over and said, "Yo, you guys are starting now?"

   "Not much, it's early harvest." Gu Chengrui got up and said, and then asked: "I heard that Grandpa Qian's family has not planted less sweet potatoes this year?"

"No, the one year's rations are enough for this sweet potato." The village chief smiled, and then said, "I came here today to buy some beef from you. Harvesting sweet potatoes is also a work of strength, so I have to make up for it. no."

   "There's no problem. I'll have someone pull half a cow to sell it tomorrow morning. If anyone wants it, they can go directly to the village to buy it."

   "Okay, then it's settled, you guys are busy first." After the village chief finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave.

   Zhou Ying hurriedly stopped him and said, "Grandpa Qian, we also accept sweet potatoes, if you don't want them, remember to keep them with us."

   "No problem, I'll give you more than half of it then."

   After collecting the sweet potatoes in the evening, Zhou Ying went to cook.

  Gu Chengrui went around the village and talked about coming to beef tomorrow, and also about collecting sweet potatoes.

   The situation this time is different from last year, but many people have promised to sell sweet potatoes.

   As soon as the meat arrived the next day, people began to put away the sweet potatoes thoroughly.

   And Zhou Ying and Gu Chengrui, after drying the sweet potatoes, directly pulled the sweet potatoes at home to Zhuangzi, and then began to collect the sweet potatoes from Zhuangzi together.

  Because the time of planting is different, the harvest is one month.

After all the    was collected, Magistrate Kong collected the excess and distributed it to the place with few sweet potato seeds.

  After the thorough work, the river transportation officially started, and the first people who came over were to collect sweet potatoes from various villages.

   However, except for the households in Shanghe Village who sold a few points, other people who have been devastated by the famine years would rather sell their sons and daughters than sweet potatoes.

   Zhou Ying took the opportunity to sell a batch of cattle and sheep.

   As soon as the money was received, and before it was heated, Father Gu went to the door to borrow money.

  Gu Chengrui looked up at him and said, "Dad, are you trying to buy a boat?"

   "Yes, now that everything is waiting, it's time to attract customers, so I want to take the opportunity to attack and grab some customers back." Father Gu nodded.

   then hesitated and said, "Of course, you can join the team if you want."

   After the husband and wife looked at each other, Gu Chengrui shook his head and said, "We don't know anything about shipping, so we won't be involved.

   But although we are father and son, since you are borrowing money for business, you have to leave me an IOU. "

   Father Gu was stunned for a moment and said, "There's no problem, I'll give you a third of the profit when you pay back the money."

   "Forget it, just give it back to us when you have enough money."

   "That's no problem, do you have a pen and paper here?"

   "Yes, wait a moment." After Gu Chengrui finished speaking, he took a pen and paper and asked him to write an IOU. After pressing his fingerprint, he borrowed them twenty taels of silver.

   After sending him back, Gu Chengrui said: "I hope they can have a good time this time, otherwise the twenty taels of silver will be wasted."
