Chapter 74: Seventy-four, what a guy, Gu Chen is going to plant gold!_1 Chapter 74: Seventy-four, what a guy, Gu Chen is going to plant gold!_1 Gu Chen laughed, “Brother Tian, there’s no need for you to worry about these things. To tell you the truth, I’m selling vegetables in the city every day, and these are off-season vegetables. City folks really crave this kind of freshness, it’s just a pity the quantity isn’t large.”

“What I really lack right now is a large greenhouse of my own. So things, you’ve got to handle yourself.”

Tian Laosì nodded, understanding everything Gu Chen was saying.

City people are wealthy and care about nutrition when they eat; eating waterlons in winter is a common occurrence.

The vegetables in the city, naturally, aren’t as fresh as those in the village.

If you’ve been farming your whole life and don’t understand even this much, then it’s all been for naught.

What temperature and how deep the soil needs to be to let crops grow most vigorously.

In the village, if Tian Laosì claid to be second-best in this regard, no one would dare to claim they were number one.

But hearing Gu Chen ntion it, Tian Laosì grew more curious.

Wasn’t Gu Chen just selling vegetables?

He was familiar with vegetable greenhouses; wouldn’t it work just to plant them outside in the field?

What was he planning to grow that was so precious and required such personal attention indoors?

Seeing Tian Laosì looking confused, Gu Chen couldn’t help but chuckle, “Brother Tian, to be honest, I want to try cultivating Cordyceps, the precious Chinese herbal dicine. I have to treat them like a treasured possession.”

What?

Tian Laosì’s eyelids twitched and his eyes widened in surprise as he stared at Gu Chen.

“That stuff isn’t cheap!!!”

Just a while ago, he had seen an advertisent on television for Ji Cao, which was made from Cordyceps in pill form.

It was priced the sa as gold!

A box could sell for tens of thousands!

Tian Laosì hadn’t expected Gu Chen to have such ambition to dare to cultivate Cordyceps.

No wonder the young man was making money; he was incredibly bold.

At that mont, Tian Laosì felt an unexpected admiration for Gu Chen.

He had to admit, Gu Chen had the guts and the connections, daring to think and act. It was no wonder he was making a fortune!

But with sothing as precious as this, it mustn’t be easy to cultivate, right?

He looked at Gu Chen skeptically, “I’ve heard that with this thing, it’s a worm in winter and turns into a plant in sumr. It can’t be easy to grow, right?”

Since it was winter, if they were planting Cordyceps, wouldn’t Gu Chen need to catch worms?

Tian Laosì had never seen real Cordyceps because they were simply too expensive. Besides, he had nowhere to see them; they weren’t native to this area but found on the Tibetan Plateau!

Hearing this, Gu Chen chuckled.

“Isn’t that a coincidence? A few days ago when I went to the city to buy goji berries, I happened to et a herbal rchant. The rchant sold a pack of small insects, to throw in the ground, and by sumr, they should turn into plants, I guess.”

To tell the truth, Gu Chen had opened the seeds provided by the system. They were just a packet of things that looked like silkworm chrysalises.

Moreover, they didn’t move; he didn’t know if they were dead or just hibernating.

Anyway, the system definitely couldn’t be cheating him.

After they toasted, the matter was settled.

Concerning the cultivation of Cordyceps, Gu Chen was still very confident. As long as he planted them, he was sure to make money!

Tian Laosì naturally didn’t know anything about Gu Chen having such a system.

He had only heard about it when he was younger and hadn’t paid much attention to it. Now that Gu Chen ntioned it, he was reminded of it.

“The greenhouse is easy to arrange, but Chenzi, you have to think it through clearly. This is, after all, our own house, and we can’t afford to take any risks,” Tian Laosì advised him at last.

Gu Chen nodded with a smile.

“Don’t worry, big brother, I’ve thought it over, there shouldn’t be any big problem with this venture,” he reassured.

Gu Chen understood internally that Tian Laosì’s way of thinking wasn’t necessarily conservative.

It was just that he had been farming for too long. People always fear unfamiliar territories; so like to take risks and are willing to gamble, but others will automatically keep a safe distance at the slightest hint of risk.

Tian Laosì was just such a person.

With a wife and children around a warm kang, and a harvest every year, his life was, well, pretty decent in the village.

So he never thought about changing anything.

“Alright, I’ll co over to help you with this in a few days.”

Tian Laosì agreed quite readily.

Planning wasn’t really a big deal; if everything went smoothly, it wouldn’t take more than a few days.

By then, Gu Chen would have to treat him to a al, no matter what.

It must be said, the al Gu Chen provided today made it a great New Year for him!

He had lived to such an age, yet it was the first ti he’d enjoyed such delicious food.

Today, ah, it wasn’t a wasted trip!

…

In the kitchen, Ji Pianran and Shen Cuilan had finished washing and putting away the dishes and were about to co out when Ji Pianran suddenly rembered the chocolates and dried fruit Gu Chen had bought.

She turned around and quickly squatted down, rummaging through the baskets at ho.

After all, they had guests, and hospitality was due.

In this regard, Ji Pianran was never stingy. Previously, it was due to a lack of money, and others knew that, so they didn’t visit often.

Now it was different, especially since Yan Yan was still a child.

Tangtang and Yan Yan were children; they would definitely enjoy these snacks and such.

She took two plates, filled them with chocolates and walnuts, almonds, and such, and prepared to take them into the room.

Shen Cuilan, seeing the basket brimming with New Year’s goods, couldn’t help but be astonished.

“Did you buy all of this?”

You know, Xufuji’s chocolates aren’t cheap, not to ntion these walnuts and almonds.

Most families would just buy a little for the children to enjoy, and they wouldn’t bring out much even when relatives and friends visited.

But at Gu Chen’s house, such a variety of New Year’s goods filled an entire basket!

My goodness, how much money would that be!

Ji Pianran smiled, “Yes, Gu Chen bought them all.”

When she said this, her eyes were filled with happiness.

Shen Cuilan noticed it too and couldn’t help feeling envious.

“It looks like your family has really struck it rich, Pian Ran. Tell your sister, what exactly is Chenzi doing? How does he earn so much money!”

“Can’t you bring my Laosì along too? Look at him, with that foolish expression, he’ll never get rich if he has to rely on himself.”

Shen Cuilan was now green with envy towards Ji Pianran.

Not only did she envy her beautiful appearance and great figure, but she now even thought Ji Pianran had made a great marriage.

In the past, people said that Ji Pianran marrying Gu Chen was like she had bad luck for eight lifetis, as Gu Chen hardly stayed at ho and was nothing but a rascally idler.

But looking at it now, pah, they were all blind.

Although Ji Pianran suffered for three years after her marriage, in just a few days, Gu Chen had brought her the kind of fortune she didn’t even dare to dream of for half her life.

Such a man, that was soone with real talent!

Ji Pianran smiled, “This is n’s business, I can’t decide for him. In my view, you shouldn’t worry too much either; let them figure it out by themselves.”

If Tian Laosì was interested in working with Gu Chen, he would surely talk to Gu Chen himself.

Whether to agree or not, that was Gu Chen’s decision.

It was not for her to interfere.

Shen Cuilan was even more envious of Ji Pianran at this point, “Look at you, so lucky. You don’t even have to worry, and Gu Chen is already doing so well. Unlike , even though I exhaust myself with worry, Laosì remains just as hopeless!”

Ji Pianran’s face was all smiles as she lifted the curtain, “Co on, let’s go inside and have so walnuts.”

As soon as they entered, Tangtang rushed toward Ji Pianran and took a piece of chocolate from her mother’s plate to give to Yan Yan.

“You eat this, it’s really good!”

Previously, Yan Yan had given her a White Rabbit Candy, and she had always rembered it.
