My Entire Family’s Gone Haywire! Chapter 1009

....
1009 She likes money
Gu Ren held Gu Xin’s hand and walked in together.
He actually had a rough idea of what Lu Zheng was up to. This was part of the plot in his book, but Lu Zheng came to kun city ahead of time, so the plot was brought forward.
He remembered that he wrote that Lu Zheng was injured and everyone in the capital thought that he was dead. He rushed back without caring about his injuries because he was afraid that Gu Xin would be worried and that people would bully her.
It was only when he saw Gu Xin that he collapsed and fainted for three days and three nights.
He shouldn’t be so miserable in this life. After all, he had already done such a thing. If he was still injured, wouldn’t it be because he wasn’t capable enough?
Therefore, Gu Ren was not worried at all.
The whole family sat around a table. Without fourth uncle Gu, Yang family had Princess Jinghe and he sanniang.
There was a large table of delicious food on the table. Not to mention he sanniang, even Jing and the princess had never eaten it before.
Cumin mutton, braised beef, a large plate of braised meat, stewed pork with chili, potato slices with chili, stewed pork ribs with vermicelli, and steamed pork ribs.
Cai Xiaolian had exchanged the cumin with the sand divine Kingdom. It was not available in the great Zhou Dynasty, but it was unique to the sand divine Kingdom. Cai Xiaolian had also exchanged the seeds with someone. In a few nights, she had harvested a large number of seeds, and she planned to plant them in spring.
Peng Yizhu came over to help make the rice noodles, but they didn’t make much. After all, the sweet potatoes were used as seeds.
Uncle Gu took a mouthful of the rice noodle. this is good, this is good. Fortunately, we have left a lot of seeds. We can plant more in spring. From next year onwards, we will have this to eat!
Gu Xin replied,’uncle, we can still sell it. We’re the only ones who know how to make these noodles, no one else knows. We can open a sweet potato and vermicelli workshop and sell it to the great Zhou Dynasty and the surrounding countries. We can make a lot of money!”
Gu Nian laughed and said,’now I know what little Xinxin likes! Silver, look at those money-grubbing eyes.”
Everyone laughed. That seemed to be the case. This girl really liked to earn money. She could think of money for everything.
Gu Xin also laughed foolishly. After laughing, she said, ” “Speaking of this, I’ve also thought of a way to earn money. I’m here to help father fill up the county government’s Silver Vault.”
Gu Xin laughed,”I’ve asked around. Kun city didn’t have a Lantern Festival in the past.” We can hold a Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first month. The merchants of our great Zhou don’t need to pay, but the neighboring countries have to pay. The Yamen provided the venue and maintained order. They collected a certain amount of money from each stall. The money was based on the income of the stall at the Lantern Festival that night. The Yamen collected ten percent. Father, make some riddles and hang them around so that the people of the neighboring countries can guess. The lanterns were made exquisitely. If they guessed it, they would give the lanterns. If they couldn’t guess it, they could buy the answer with silver and set the price according to the difficulty of the riddle. His father could also mobilize the people living in kun city, including the families of the soldiers, to participate in this trade fair and sell what they thought was useless. You’ll charge ten wens per household. You sent people to inform the neighboring countries, but didn’t they all not participate in the great Zhou’s Lantern Festival? To put it more jokingly, the people who came were definitely not ordinary people.
Gu shouxin,”Oh? Why don’t you tell me?”
Gu Xin laughed,”I’ve asked around. Kun city didn’t have a Lantern Festival in the past.” We can hold a Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first month.

To put it more jokingly, the people who came were definitely not ordinary people. Oh, right, the Yamen can also buy some things, such as ring toss, throwing darts, and other small games.”
Gu shouxin thought about it and agreed with her, but he was worried about Gu Xin, ” “Why do you think of the Lantern Festival? Do you think that kun city is too cold and cheerless?”
Gu Xin nodded, ” It was too deserted. Just now, I saw that there were no street lights in front of the gate. It’s not even as lively as our Zhou clan town! Since it’s not lively, let’s do it ourselves.”
