Maybe you should put your package.json into your root directory(mysite/package.json),
then try to install node_modules on the root.
In addition, you write gulpfile on the same dir.

eg.

mysite  
|- package.json  
|- node_modules  
|- gulpfile.js  
└─builder  
└─work  
└─work2

However, I recommend that you write one single gulpfile for each project.
