I'm going to become rich after being dressed as a five-year-old woman

Half a month later, the wind blew and the leaves made a rustling sound. Many leaves that had already withered fell to the ground.

The bright red peppers hanging on the branches sway in the breeze, looking gorgeous and tempting.

A pair of bare hands gently climbed up the branch, and with a slight pinch, the peppers were picked.

Zhao Qiqi threw a handful of picked peppers into the basket. After picking for a while, the bottom of the basket was all red.

The pepper yield is exceptionally good. Each pepper tree is a combination of red and green, with the red ones slightly bending the branches.

In addition to Zhao Qiqi's place, the lands of the second and third branches of the Gu family, including Li Yuzhu, all had such a good harvest, so everyone can survive the cold winter.

When the basket was full, they asked Gu Yansui and Gu Yantang to carry it back, pour the peppers on the ground, and bring the basket back to fill it with peppers. They picked peppers for the whole morning, and their speed was getting faster and faster. They planned to pick all the peppers from the two acres of land this morning, and they were almost done.

"It's time to eat, come back."

After Xiang signed out the people in the workshop, he cooked dinner and waited for everyone to come back to eat.

"Mom, you guys go back first. I think there are still some left and we will pick them all in a while." Gu Yansui thought that there was only a little left, so it would be better to pick them all and come back in the afternoon to pick the other acres of land.

Gu Yantang also thought it made sense, nodded, and urged Zhao Qiqi to go back and eat first.

"Then you pick them, Yunyun, let's go back and wash our hands and eat first." Zhao Qiqi patted Gu Zhaoyun's shoulder and told her to go back first. These people are all young people, and at his age, he can't afford to starve.

Gu Zhaoyun nodded obediently, carrying his small basket and followed behind Zhao Qiqi.

Gu Yanyi looked at their receding backs and was punched by Gu Yantang: "What are you looking at? Why don't you pick them quickly? If you finish picking them sooner, you can go back to eat."

Gu Yansui also came back from school. After putting down his things, he picked up the bamboo basket that Zhao Qiqi used and came over to pick with everyone.

It was almost done, so several people moved all the peppers back and poured them together with the original peppers.

After washing my hands, I went to eat.

Zhao Qiqi and the others had already finished eating and were sitting there digesting their food while taking their meals out of the pot.

The weather is getting colder, and I keep the food in the pot for fear that it will get cold.

When they come back to eat, the temperature is just right, neither cold nor hot.

Gu Shun and Gu Yao from the second and third rooms have also returned. Xiang and Old Madam Gu are busy in the workshop. Gu Xiaocao also has to mix the raw materials in a certain proportion in the workshop before she can go and pick peppers for a while.

There also went Mr. Gu, Gu Xiaohua, Gu Dazhu, Gu Erzhu and Gu Sanzhu. Gu Dazhu was a lazy person and couldn't change much in a short time. The others could only be considered half laborers, as they were either old or young, and their speed was much slower than that of Zhao Qiqi's family.

At this moment, they were in a hurry to finish their meal and continue picking peppers, because Zhao Qiqi planned to deliver a batch of peppers this afternoon and the rest tomorrow.

The yield per mu is about 1,200 kilograms. The two mu harvested yield 2,400 kilograms, and the second and third rooms harvested more than 1,600 kilograms, making a total of about 4,000 kilograms.

The carriage could not possibly hold so many peppers, so Zhao Qiqi put the peppers in baskets and asked the eldest and second oldest brothers to carry the baskets onto the carriage. The remaining space was filled with sacks.

Zhao Qiqi and Gu Yansui were both driving carts outside, preparing to go to the town to deliver goods. The deliveries were now to the two restaurants in the town, Zuixianju and Penglai Pavilion. The two restaurants could accept about 2,000 kilograms in total, of which Penglai Pavilion would receive 700 kilograms and Zuixianju would receive 1,300 kilograms.

Zuixianju not only has restaurants in Qixian Town, but also in Wu Town and Xun Town, and its usage is more extensive than that of Penglai Pavilion.

The rest Zhao Qiqi would have to sell elsewhere himself and look for any channels.

"Manager Zhang, I brought you 1,300 kilograms of chili peppers today."

Shopkeeper Zhang was delighted. "That's great. We've already used up all the chili peppers we had. Even the managers of Zuixianju in Wu Town and Xun Town have come to me for more. I really don't know what to do."

Zhao Qiqi smiled politely: "Now that we have a larger output, we will sell more peppers, so our price has also dropped. It only costs thirty coins per pound."

Shopkeeper Zhang was shocked, feeling both happy and worried. He was happy because not only had the output increased, but the price had also dropped. However, this meant that more and more restaurants and small vendors would be able to buy the peppers, and they would no longer be able to be used as a specialty product in their stores.

Not to mention that Zhao Qiqi also wants to sell this pepper to Penglai Pavilion.

There are only two restaurants in this town, and they have always been competing with each other.

"Aunt Zhao, do you have any chili peppers at home?"

Zhao Qiqi didn't expect that 1,300 kilograms was already a lot, and Manager Zhang had such a big appetite that he wanted to eat all of it.

"There are still some at home that have not been picked, and the ones on the carriage now are all intended to be left for Penglai Pavilion."

Shopkeeper Zhang stood up excitedly and said, "Aunt Zhao, I will personally lead people to Gujia Village tomorrow. I will take whatever you have at home."

Only thirty cents per pound, half the price before.

"Although this thing can be kept for some time, it will rot if left for too long."

Shopkeeper Zhang waved his hand and said, "Don't worry. I only sent it to my other two branches before. Now the people at the Beijing headquarters know about it. They wrote to me a few days ago to inform me to collect it. I thought you couldn't grow so much, but now it's a pleasant surprise."

This was also a pleasant surprise for Zhao Qiqi. He had originally planned to sell the product elsewhere, but now he could just buy it directly.

"I still have about 8,000 kilograms. Do you need that much?"

Eight thousand kilograms! Shopkeeper Zhang stood up excitedly: "Aunt Zhao, is it really eight thousand kilograms?"

Now, it can be sent to many places. The headquarters may even reward him. Although there are peppers in Penglai Pavilion here, there is no Penglai Pavilion in other places. They are still the only one in the market, and this is their unique feature.

"In addition to these 8,000 kilograms, I also have some peppers that I plan to dry into dried peppers or make into pepper sauce for sale, so that they can be preserved for a long time. This year, not only am I growing them, but several other families are also growing them, so the yield is relatively high."

Shopkeeper Zhang nodded and said cautiously, "Well, can Aunt Zhao sell me all of these dried chili peppers or chili sauce?"

Zhao Qiqi nodded. The peppers that were to be dried were actually the ones she bought from the system after sneaking in, so she would not arouse suspicion.

As for selling them all to Shopkeeper Zhang, there was no problem at all. He probably didn't want to sell the things to Penglai Pavilion himself, so he took them all.

Zhao Qiqi took the forty taels and five hundred coins handed over by the shopkeeper Zhang, and put the money in his purse, which was bulging and looked very important.

Be more steady, be more steady. It's not like you haven't seen so much money before.

Although Zhao Qiqi thought this in her heart, she couldn't help but grin when she said goodbye to Shopkeeper Zhang.

Although it was said to be 1,300 kilograms, Zhao Qiqi did not weigh it, mainly because the scale at home was not convenient. After Zhang Zhangui weighed it, it was found to be more than 1,350 kilograms.

When Zhao Qiqi came out, Gu Yansui saw her and quickly put down the wooden stool for her to sit on.

Zhao Qiqi lifted the car curtain, the smile on her face froze. She looked at Gu Yansui, who didn't understand what was going on. He also looked inside and was stunned.

"how so."
