Big Qian nodded. “When I went out to look for work previously, I went to many places, so I know something.”

“What kind of job did you find?” He had earned five taels in a short period of time.

Big Qian was even more embarrassed. “I’d do anything. I’ve been to many villages. Some families need someone to carry things when they get married. Some need help when they go up the mountain. Some need to withstand beatings when they fight. Anyway, I’ll go wherever there’s money.”

In fact, these jobs did not earn much money. There was once when a rich young master offended someone. His figure was similar to that of the rich young master, so he pretended to be that person and was beaten half to death. In the end, the rich young master saw that he seemed to have vomited blood and directly threw five taels of silver to him.

Actually, the blood was not Big Qian’s. It was just chicken blood. He had deliberately spat it out in front of the rich young master.

At that time, he thought that he could get ten taels of silver. He did not expect that the person was very stingy and only gave him five taels.

However, it was enough. He took the silver and hurried back.

However, he had indeed gone to many places. He had not only gone to the villages near his county, but he had also gone to the neighboring county.

Therefore, Big Qian knew very well where the fruit trees were.

Gu Yundong did not expect him to have such a harvest. “Then can you purchase fruits? This time, you won’t purchase fruit trees. You’ll purchase fruits of good quality. Can you do that?”

Big Qian seemed to have realized something and suddenly looked up. His eyes were slightly excited, but he immediately nodded. “Yes.”

“I need a lot of fruits, but I also need you to negotiate the price.” Nowadays, fruits were not cheap. Gu Yundong wanted a large quantity, so it had to be cheap.

Big Qian was more cautious this time and agreed without hesitation.

He pursed his lips and finally said firmly, “I can do it.”

“Alright, I’ll get two people to go with you another day. Think carefully about which fruit you want to collect and which village you want to go to. You also have to consider the time it will take to travel back and forth. Come to Yongfu Village to look for me when you’re done thinking about it. We’ll talk about the salary then.”

Big Qian nodded heavily. “Okay, I’ll definitely think about it carefully.”

Gu Yundong looked at the orchard again. After asking Zhao Zhu about the planting, she planned to leave.

However, just as she turned around, Big Qian chased after her.

When he reached the entrance of the orchard, he took a deep breath and said solemnly, “Boss, thank you.”

Gu Yundong was stunned for a moment before she understood that he should be referring to the time when Grandma Qian came to her house.

She smiled. “Do a good job.” Then, she left with Tong Shuitao.

“I will.” Big Qian was overjoyed. He stomped his feet and ran home.

Zhao Zhu and his son, who came out later, looked at his departing back with slightly complicated expressions.

Gousheng, in particular, sounded a little envious. “Big Qian is going to be successful too.”

“Why? Don’t you want him to be successful?”

Gousheng shook his head. “No, I just feel like I’m the only one who doesn’t have anything. Zhuangzi went to the county city to work as a clerk. I heard that he planned to do a good job and try to become a shopkeeper in two years. Now that Big Qian has been put in an important position by Miss Gu, he might be a manager in the future. I’m the only one here to carry water and turn the soil every day.”

Zhao Zhu reached out and patted his head. “Why? Do you dislike it? Let me ask you, who told you that you’re useless just because you carry water and turn the soil every day?”

Gousheng looked up in confusion.. “Dad, what do you mean?”
