Chapter 420: New Goods in the Shop

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“Alright, let’s wait for Yunshu’s birthday. We’ll invite his classmates to our house.”

Gu Yundong was actually looking forward to it. In fact, Yunshu had not really celebrated his birthday.

In the past, when she was in Old Gu’s family, Madam Zhao always said that their family was poor. If so many people celebrated their birthdays, how much money would it cost? However, she had actually been secretly celebrating birthdays for the children of the second and third branches.

Every time it was Gu Dahe’s or Gu Dahu’s children’s birthday, they would be able to eat an egg.

Their branch didn’t have it, but Gu Dajiang remembered it. He would come back from the county city and buy two sweets for the children to eat. Even so, he would always be scolded by Madam Zhao.

Therefore, a proper birthday celebration was a luxury for their branch.

Now that they were in Yongfu Village and had more money, Gu Yundong naturally wanted to make up for what they did not have in the past.

Therefore, the next day, she brought the newly made loquat cans to the county city.

She went to the shop first. The business in the shop had stabilized, but it was still booming. The rich people in the county city had not given up on buying white sugar here before going to the prefectural city to sell it, even though they could only buy five catties a day.

However, white sugar would not be the main product very soon. There would be all kinds of dried fruits and preserved jams.

When Zhuangzi saw her coming over, he immediately greeted her with a smile.

Gu Yundong nodded slightly. Very good. Now, his smile no longer looked wretched.

“Shopkeeper Zheng, this is canned loquat. The workshop has just started making it, so there’s not many. There might be other canned fruits or dried fruits or fruit jam next. We have to find an opportunity to promote the new products. Think about it in the next two days and see how to make it effective.”

Gu Yundong took out a can, opened it and poured out the pulp for Zheng Gang and Zhuangzi to try.

The two of them took a bite and their eyes lit up.

“This is delicious.”

“Delicious.” Zhuangzi couldn’t wait to take a second bite.

Gu Yundong patted his hand. He laughed dryly and put the spoon back in embarrassment.

He even took a look at Zheng Gang. Although Zheng Gang’s eyes were shining and he looked like he still wanted to eat, he tried his best to restrain himself. Instantly, Zhuangzi felt a little sad. Indeed, there was still a long way to go to become a shopkeeper.

“The loquat has the effect of moistening the lungs and stopping coughing. The loquat ointment in the pharmacy is quite expensive, and it is not delicious. Boss, there’s white sugar in this can of loquat, right?”

Gu Yundong nodded. “Indeed, so the price of this canned loquat cannot be cheap.”

“Boss, don’t worry. Even if it’s not cheap, there will definitely be many people who will buy it.” Zheng Gang was very confident. Not only could the loquat be eaten, but the sugar water was also delicious. The wealthy families in the county might even fight for it.

Gu Yundong handed the matter of the new products to Zheng Gang before bringing the canned food to Qin Wenzheng’s school.

Madam Ge was very happy to see her. “My husband is in class. He’ll be resting in 15 minutes. Take a seat and wait for him.”

She poured some tea for Gu Yundong and called Qin Anning over to meet her.

Qin Anning liked Gu Yundong a lot, especially since she had so much fun at Yongfu Village the last time. She yearned to go there again.

Gu Yundong smiled. “You want to go? Sure. As long as your parents have no objections, you’re welcome anytime.”

Qin Anning turned to look at Mrs. Ge, who sighed and thought to herself that her daughter was definitely born of the wrong gender. She should be a boy.

As she was thinking, she saw Qin Wenzheng striding over.

“It’s good that you’re here. I was thinking of going to Yongfu Village to meet you later..”
