“Should I deliver it tomorrow?”
“Yes, do send it over tomorrow morning. It’s just in time for me to cook the meat sauce in advance.”
“Do you want to choose a cow yourself, or do you want us to help you choose?”
“Do as you see fit. I trust you. Oh right, remember to come over for dinner tonight.”
Afterward, they exchanged a few more polite words before Gu Chengrui went straight to the manor.
“Boss, you guys are finally back.” Qian Zhuang and Gu Erjiang, who were about to pull the cattle and sheep out, immediately surrounded him enthusiastically when they saw him.
“Yeah, I’m finally back. Are you guys alright?” Gu Chengrui asked.
“Thanks to you, we’re living well.” Qian Zhuang said.
“Yeah! Not only do we get to eat our fill, but we also get to wear warm clothes.
“We also have a wife and children now. I didn’t even dare to think about these before.” Gu Erjiang agreed with a silly smile.
“So, you’re both married and have children?” Gu Chengrui said.
“Yes, but Erjiang’s child is only six months old and hasn’t been born yet.” Qian Zhuang said.
“Very good. Live well in the future.” Gu Chengrui glanced at the meat in the carriage. “You guys go and deliver the meat first. We’ll talk later.”
“Alrighty, we’ll get busy first.” After Qian Zhuang finished speaking, the two of them each drove the ox cart to town.
After Gu Chengrui went in, he went straight to the field and found over 100 acres of land planted with chili peppers.
That’s right. Rice is relatively cheaper to buy. It’s not as practical as growing chili peppers.
“Boss, you’re here?” Chang Shun saw him and immediately ran over.
“Yeah, I came to see how everyone was doing.”
“They’re all doing pretty well. Manager Sun was afraid that the chilies in the capital were not enough, so he asked us to plant all our lands with them.”
“Good. If you can plant more, then plant them all. By the way, did the manor get any corn seeds?” Gu Chengrui asked.
“Yes, but only ten acres worth.”
“It’s pretty good. By the middle of May, you can directly plant them in the chili field.
“I heard that the yield is relatively high. Remember to pick some big and plump ones to save for next year’s seeds.”
“I’ll remember it.”
“Mhm, go ahead. I’ll go to Uncle Yan’s place to take a look. We’ll meet up again later.”
“Alright, then I’ll go plant the chili seedlings first.” After Chang Shun finished speaking, he turned around and went to the fields.
Gu Chengrui went to the breeding area inside.
Seeing that Uncle Yan was mixing the feed, he stepped forward to help and greet him. “Hello, Uncle Yan.”
“Where’s Zhou girl? Why are you back alone?” Uncle Yan raised his head.
“She’s pregnant. I’m afraid that she won’t be able to handle the trip, so I didn’t let her come back.”
Uncle Yan smiled and nodded. “Children are more important. Congratulations on becoming a father.”
“Thank you. Is everything okay here?”
“It’s still the same. The space is limited, and the animals we can raise are also limited. However, it’s just enough for the restaurant.”
“Thank you for your hard work. Can I get you to slaughter another cow tomorrow for the patriarch? My cousin Gu Chengsi just passed the imperial examination, so we need beef the day after tomorrow.”
“That’s great news. Will we send it to the village tomorrow?”
“It’s not far. Let’s send it there.”
“Alright, this old man will remember this.”
After that, the two of them chatted for a while. After mixing the feed, Gu Chengrui visited the cattle pen and sheep pen before heading to Xin’an Village.
He soon found Feng Chun’s house.
“Brother Chengrui, when did you come back?” Gu Zishan, who was helping her child learn to walk, was stunned when she saw him.
“Yesterday afternoon? How’re you doing?” Gu Chengrui replied, took out a small silver lock, and handed it to the little fellow.
“Thanks to you, our village has turned over a new leaf.” Gu Zishan thanked him, handed him a stool, and said, “Brother Chengrui, have a seat..”
