Chapter 4: Made the first money!

As soon as she shouted, the sluggish market suddenly became lively, and many people looked over.

A farmer covered his nose and asked hesitantly: "What is this? Can it really prevent cold syndrome?"

"Of course, it's not just cold syndrome, but other infectious diseases can also be prevented. It's much thicker than the handkerchief you use to cover your nose. You don't have to cover it all the time. It's very convenient to hang it on your ears. Take a look." Gu Xiaoyou pointed at herself.

of masks for everyone to see.

Her mask was specially made by Mr. Zhou, with a plum blossom tattooed on the corner. It looked very nice, much better than the handkerchiefs and face coverings they used to cover their noses.

"It's easy to carry, not afraid of feng shui, and won't fall off. You can go back and wash it and wear it the next day." Gu Xiaoyou boasted about herself, and many people began to be tempted.

"It only costs five cents. If you really get cold, it will cost you at least dozens of cents to take the medicine." Gu Xiaoyou continued.

Everyone hesitated, and suddenly someone in the crowd seemed to recognize Gu Xiaoyou: "Are you... are you Dr. Gu from Widow Zhou's family?"

After he shouted this, everyone realized that the person standing next to Gu Xiaoyou was Widow Zhou!

"Is she Dr. Gu?"

"Yes, the third son of the Li family got better after he and Widow Zhou went to see a miracle doctor that day."

After several discussions, the crowd became a little excited and started to spend money to buy masks.

"Sister Zhou, what are you doing standing there, come here and collect the money!" Gu Xiaoyou glanced at Mrs. Zhou, who then came back to her senses.

"I want three!"

"I want two!"

There were more and more people. Seeing so many people scrambling for masks, Zhou became more agile in taking money and put a smile on her face: "Slow down, don't be anxious, there are more!"

But it didn't take long for the masks to be sold out. People who didn't buy them were dumbfounded when they saw this scene: "No more?"

Gu Xiaoyou wiped his sweat and said: "Also, we will come in the afternoon, you can come in an hour."

The harvest in the morning was so good, so of course she wanted to pursue the victory.

"You have to leave a few for us!"

Gu Xiaoyou said: "It's not okay to keep it. If others want to buy it, they will definitely sell it, but you can pay a deposit and I can keep it for you."

"The deposit is two cents. You tell me your name and I will write it down. When you come in the afternoon, you can pay three cents and you can get the masks. Otherwise, if you arrive late and the masks are sold out, I will not be responsible."

"This..." Everyone, look at me, and I'll look at you.

I don’t know who said: “Oh, I know where Widow Zhou’s home is. If you dare to default on your debt, I will go to her home to find her!”

With that said, one of them took out two cents and handed it to Gu Xiaoyou.

Gu Xiaoyou immediately asked Zhou to take out a pen and ink and write down the name.

Zhou's money bag was so heavy at the moment that her eyes turned cold after weighing it: "Miss Xiaoyou, this is the first time I have grown so big and made so much money so quickly!"

They sold out the two hundred masks in less than half an hour. In addition to the 1,000 cash they received for selling the masks, they also had a few hundred cash deposits. This was her income for almost ten days!

"With these one thousand cash, excluding the five hundred cash given to Aunt Zhang and the others yesterday, we still made five hundred cash. Isn't it a good deal?" Gu Xiaoyou chuckled, and Mrs. Zhou also laughed brightly.

"What a bargain, you are so smart!" Mrs. Zhou put the money bag away and the two of them went home.

As soon as the two entered the door, Liang'er greeted them: "Mom! Have you sold all the masks?"

"Sold it, I made a lot of money!" Mrs. Zhou said with a smile.

Gu Xiaoyou quickly made a shushing gesture: "Sister Zhou, put the money away quickly and don't let anyone see it."

"You're right, I'll put it away right away." Mrs. Zhou went to put the things away.

Gu Xiaoyou went into the side room to see Aunt Zhang and the others making masks.

As soon as I walked in, I was shocked: "Oh my God, you did so much in the morning?"

There are at least 300 masks on the kang.

"Yes, my hands were not very skilled yesterday, but today we are much more skilled, so we can do it faster." Aunt Zhang smiled and handed the finished one to Gu Xiaoyou: "Miss Xiaoyou, see what happens.

Sample?"

When Gu Xiaoyou saw that it was smoother than yesterday, he immediately nodded and said: "Of course, thank you for your hard work. Sister Zhou and I will buy something to reward everyone tonight."

"Thank you so much, Miss Gu!" Aunt Zhang and others immediately worked harder.

"You're welcome. It's my turn to thank you. It's really hard work. You do it first. I'll ask Sister Zhou to help you make some food. Let's have a simple meal here for lunch."

"That couldn't be better!"

When Gu Xiaoyou left the house, Zhou had already put the money away. Gu Xiaoyou also helped to make lunch with her, and the meal was ready in less than half an hour.

After the meal, Gu Xiaoyou and Mrs. Zhou put their morning masks back on their backs and went to the market again. Aunt Zhang and the others continued to work hard.

With the preparation in the morning, there were already many people waiting when they went to the market in the afternoon. Although there were more masks this time, they ran out faster because of reservations!

Zhou's money bag was almost full, and she kept clamoring to sew a bigger one.

Gu Xiaoyou smiled and packed her things, accepted another batch of reservations for tomorrow, and planned to leave.

At this time, an old man dressed in poor clothes suddenly stopped the two of them, "Doctor Gu! Please, please save my daughter!"

Seeing this, Gu Xiaoyou quickly supported the old man and said, "Oh, uncle, you get up first, this gift is too big!"

The old man said with tears in his eyes: "Dr. Gu, I came to beg you because I have no other choice... My daughter is too seriously ill. I have spent all my family's savings in the past half month, and I can't afford it now."

Medicine, I can only watch my daughter waiting to die..."

Gu Xiaoyou could only say: "Actually, I am not a miracle doctor, but I can go and have a look with you."

If it was just a bad cold, it would be easy for her to handle, but it would cause other complications...

"Okay, okay! If you are willing to come with me to have a look, I am already grateful!" The old man's voice trembled with excitement.

Gu Xiaoyou glanced at Mrs. Zhou: "Sister Zhou, please clean up first. I will follow you as soon as possible."

"Okay, then I'll wait for you." Mrs. Zhou nodded and let Gu Xiaoyou pass with peace of mind.

Gu Xiaoyou followed the old man for two blocks and arrived at his house.

Although his home is in the town, it is just a shabby house, and it can be seen that his family is poor.

Gu Xiaoyou sighed: "The environment you live in is too bad..."

The old man couldn't help but sigh: "My wife passed away early, and I was suffering from tuberculosis. Before, I relied on my daughter to sell gadgets at the door to support the family. It would be nice to have food..."

This father and daughter were also pitiful people. Gu Xiaoyou sighed deeply and came to the small bed in the back room. The old man's daughter still had a fever, her forehead was covered with sweat, and her face was extremely pale.
