Destiny Koi, I'm cheating after rebirth

Gu Lin looked at the materials in front of him and said in surprise,

“I didn’t expect these materials could make as many as fifty pieces! I thought I could only make twenty or thirty pieces at most!

Fifty dollars is a lot.”

"That's it, let's get started later. Brother, come and give me a hand." Gu Qingzhi looked at Gu Lin.

At this time, Gu Hao and Gu Xiaoshui also ran over after hearing the news and said that they would come back to help immediately after school in the afternoon.

During this period, Gu Hao would go to the mountains to collect firewood and herbs after school.

With the help of Gu Qingzhi, he has learned a lot about herbs and would bring some back every time he came back.

Gu Xiaoshui would come back after school to make silk flowers, after all, each silk flower was so expensive.

Both little guys are very well-behaved and do everything they can.

"Okay, then sister will be waiting for your help!" Gu Qingzhi smiled and gave each of them a candy, and the matter was settled.

In the afternoon, Gu Lin and Gu Qingzhi began to get busy and continued to work until the evening.

By lighting the kerosene lamp, I finally completed the production of all the soapberry balls.

Gu Qingzhi silently calculated that after it solidified, he should be able to get more than sixty pieces.

This is somewhat unexpected.

It may also be because practice makes perfect.

Unfortunately, the most critical material has been used up. If you want to do it again next time, you have to wait until you find new materials.

"Zhizhi, is this all right?" Gu Lin looked at the semi-finished product in his hand with some disbelief.

Gu Qingzhi shook his head and said, "Not yet, brother. These will not be completed until they are all solidified in three days."

For this batch of soapberry balls, Gu Qingzhi made three scents: chrysanthemum, plum blossom and jasmine.

Among the medicinal herbs that his brother brought back from Jiangzhou this time were several kinds of dried flowers, including jasmine. Gu Qingzhi picked them out and took some out to use.

Gu Lin thought for a moment and said, "Zhizhi, if I want it again next time..."

Hearing this, Gu Qingzhi replied with a smile:

"If my brother still wants to make soapberry balls, it's not difficult. If you can find all the materials, you can make it.

How about this, I'll make a list for you later, and you can look for it when you have time."

She didn't ask Gu Lin what he wanted so many soapberry balls for. Her brother was an adult now and he must have his own arrangements.

The next day, Gu Qingzhi started making Chinese herbal creams and ointments.

I think there's some results from Ren'aitang, so we need to prepare some. Also, since my brother is going to take them to Jiangzhou, we should at least make some more for him to take with him.

Now that she has several kinds of dried flowers, she is thinking of making more scented creams and ointments so that she will have more choices later.

I have made two kinds of scents before, plum blossom and osmanthus. Now I have jasmine, peony and chrysanthemum in the cabinet. I might as well add three more scents.

However, there are not many dried flowers, so Gu Qingzhi decided to use them in the ointment.

She has stored a lot of plum blossoms and osmanthus flowers, so she should continue to add these two to the face cream.

However, there should be some seasonal flowers on the mountain now.

It seems that I have to go up the mountain when my brother comes back.

The next day, Gu Lin went to help build the house early in the morning.

My mother and sister are really courageous. They built such a big house on the spur of the moment.

In the afternoon, he followed Gu Tai up the mountain to help plant trees. After all, these were the fruit tree seedlings he had brought back from Jiangzhou, so he should take care of them.

When Gu Lin went out, he met Gu Ren, who took him for a walk around the village. He didn't expect that such big changes had taken place in Sheng Tang after he had been away for more than a month.

The school has been built and the roads in the village have also been repaired. In the past, they were all yellow dirt roads, and there would be big puddles when it rained. Now the roads are all paved with bluestone bricks, so there is no need to worry about water accumulation when it rains.

The village also built a large fish pond at the foot of the mountain. I heard that fish fry have been put into it, so everyone will have fish to eat before the New Year.

Walking on the country road, I actually saw many families expanding their houses.

This is really new. I haven't seen villagers renovating their houses in the past few years.

Gu Lin looked around curiously, chatting with Gu Ren: "Huh? Why are so many families expanding their houses?"

Gu Ren smiled and explained, "Brother Lin, my father said that after my aunt's house is repaired in a while, my family will also build a few new houses."

Gu Lin looked at him puzzledly and asked, "Why do you suddenly want to build a new house?"

Gu Ren scratched his head and said a little embarrassedly: "We made a lot of money with your family last year. My father said that my brother and I are grown up and it's time to get married. Now that we have the conditions, we have to build this house."

Gu Lin touched his nose and thought that although he was almost seventeen years old, he had never thought of getting married.

All he wants now is to make money and become stronger so that he can become a support for his younger brothers and sisters.

Since visiting Jiangzhou, his horizons have broadened a lot.

"Ahem, actually there's no need to be too anxious about getting married."

Gu Ren smiled bitterly, "I don't think there's any rush either."

But his parents don't think so.

"Besides, Sister Shu is old enough, her marriage is..."

Gu Lin understood as soon as he heard it. Shu Jie'er is sixteen years old this year and it is time for her to start looking for a boyfriend.

He patted Gu Ren's shoulder like a little adult: "We can't rush this matter. We need to take our time to choose."

Gu Ren smiled bitterly. Yes, he looked at the people who were building their houses and said with emotion,

"As for the other families who built houses, they probably also made money last year."

Whether it is a mountain goods store, basket weaving or silk flower business, there are always some families who have caught up.

Gu Lin suddenly realized and said with a smile: "So that's how it is, that's great!"

As they continued walking, Gu Lin said with emotion: "Sheng Tang Li is really getting better and better, and everyone's life is getting more prosperous."

Gu Ren nodded and agreed: "Yes, all this is thanks to you and Yan Ge'er and the others."

Gu Lin smiled modestly: "This is not our credit, it is the result of everyone's joint efforts."

They walked and talked, feeling the new changes in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, their hearts full of expectations for the future.

However, he had just finished discussing Shu Jie'er's marriage with Gu Ren today.

In the evening, someone came to the door.

At the time, he was growing herbs in the backyard with his father, sister, and Mr. Tang.

Gu Xiaoshui suddenly ran over to tell him that Uncle Zhang came to see him.

Gu Lin felt very strange. Why did Uncle Zhang look for him?

"Did Uncle Zhang say what it was?"

Gu Xiaoshui shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.

So Gu Lin had no choice but to wash his hands and go out.

However, judging from Gu Xiaoshui's gossipy expression, Gu Qingzhi knew that she might know something.

But she didn't pay attention to her immediately and continued with her work - shoveling soil and digging holes.
