After Transmigration, She Sold Herself to a Man as a Wife

Chapter 89

"Call me if you need anything."

After everyone finished their work, Gu Jinchen helped tidy up the things and carried them back to the courtyard, not forgetting to remind her.

"Okay, got it."

Luo Ge responded, then turned her head and saw the few jars of salted duck eggs and preserved eggs placed against the wall. Her steps paused for a moment.

"Husband, shall we spread the news that we are collecting chicken and duck eggs?"

She almost forgot about this matter. Currently, they had only taken out a small portion to be sold through Li Shopkeeper's shop.

But if they were to continue selling in the future, these eggs would definitely need to have a source.

"Sure." Hearing her words, Gu Jinchen followed her gaze and immediately understood her intention.

"I'll go out and let them know in a bit. You stay at home and take it easy, no need to overwork yourself." He said, reaching out to ruffle her head.

He knew she had a nature of being active and industrious, always keeping busy from morning till night.

Now that they had some free time, he had to ensure she rested properly.

The helpers they hired were all villagers from their hometown, so by informing them, it would serve as a form of promotion.

Moreover, every household would raise a chicken or two for eggs to sell for some extra income.

"Okay." Hearing his words, Luo Ge had no objections and obediently nodded her head.

...The news spread quite quickly. In the evening, shortly after the workers returned, villagers were already bringing their chicken eggs over.

Luo Ge and the others collected them at the usual price of two copper coins per egg.

Everyone didn't bring much, just seven or eight eggs per household, around ten or so. It was the little amount they could barely save up.

In this era where nutrients were extremely scarce and precious,

eggs, for ordinary people, were basically as valuable as gold. They rarely had the chance to consume them throughout the year.

(In fact, even until now, there are still people who could not afford to eat eggs for a long time.)

So, this price was not considered expensive.

When people saw that the Gu family was collecting eggs again, there were still many curious villagers.

But with the previous lesson from Li Zi, no one dared to ask too many questions.

Even if they asked, the family wouldn't tell them, and they would probably be scolded by those fiercely protective guards with words like "It's none of your business!" or something similar.

If they couldn't get any information, why go and get scolded for no reason?

"This time, the gossipers have quieted down?"

Seeing this situation, Ma Feng Auntie was surprised when she came to deliver the eggs.

"Perhaps they were scared by you?" Luo Ge couldn't help but joke.

Hearing her words, Ma Feng Auntie raised her head proudly, "That's right, it's normal for them to be afraid."

Ma Feng's reputation in the village was no small matter.

"Pfft." Hearing this, Sister Ya and the few young wives of the Gu family couldn't help but laugh.

...The collaboration was established, the two little fellows were sent to the study hall, the courtyard was gradually being built, Jiang Feng had taken over the production of pear jam and pear candy.

The mold designs had also been completed for Li Shopkeeper during this period.

The craftsmen there had already grasped the techniques, so there was no need for Gu Jinchen and Luo Ge to worry too much.

Everything had stabilized.

Apart from collecting some chicken and duck eggs daily, Luo Ge basically had nothing much to keep herself busy with.

The small workshop hadn't been set up yet, so the amount they collected each day wasn't much.

The pickling process could be handled in the evenings and spare time, with only a small portion done outside.

Most of the work was done in the space, which could save a lot of time.

As a woman, she couldn't be of much help at the construction site. Aside from delivering tea and water, Gu Jinchen generally didn't allow her to handle anything else related to that area.
