Chapter 256 Ice Making

Jiang Luo actually planned to go alone with Luo Yu, so that it would be convenient for him to find an opportunity to hint to her that he was interested in her.

But at this moment, seeing that Luo Yu was already shaking his hands to figure out who he could call over together, he had no choice but to suppress the urge to refute, and nodded in response.

Seeing that he agreed, after Luo Yu explained to him the affairs that she would hand over to him when she returned to Qingzhou Academy, she opened the cub raising system on the way to meet Qin Chunyue and Li Shao, intending to tell Qin Yan about it explain.

Let's see if he can go there when he's free.

Qin Yan was still thinking whether to write a letter or wait until he went to Qingzhou to meet her before asking her if she wanted to go to Luozhou together, but now she took the initiative to find her and brought it up.

After the accident, I immediately felt something was wrong.

After all, Luo Yu is still busy now, so why would he suddenly think of going to Luozhou for fun?

Then I asked a bit, and learned from her that it was a cashier in her inn who made the invitation.

He also met this person once when he went to Qingzhou to look for Luo Yu privately before, and knew that he was about the same age as Luo Yu.

Thinking of the respect and tenderness in his eyes when he mentioned Luo Yu at that time, the man's first instinct made him feel that things were not simple.

After Luo Yu left, he sent someone to investigate Jiang Luo's life experience, and wanted to find out where he came from, so he was confident that he could covet Luo Yu.

Luo Yu didn't know Qin Yan's thoughts at all.

Just arrived at Huayuexuan at this moment, and met Li Shao and Qin Chunyue who were listening to the music played by the guards in the private room on the third floor.

It's just because Li Shao found her when the stage started last time at the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, and told her the reason why he got his relative Chunyue's birthday wrong.

Knowing that Qin Chunyue really celebrated her birthday, and it should be the later one, Luo Yu immediately said that the surprise she had planned before could also be postponed, after all, the most important thing about celebrating a birthday is to be happy.

Of course it is not okay to live a bad day.

Qin Chunyue originally wanted to decline again, but Luo Yu couldn't resist, so she could only nod her head helplessly.

That's how today's three people got together alone.

When she got to the private room on the third floor, the sun outside was already stronger than when she came from Youpeng Restaurant.

But fortunately, Huayuexuan is located in a quiet and cool forest. Once inside the house, without the sun, you can feel a lot better.

"Xiao Yuzi, you are here! Master and I just came back from the waterfall where the aqueduct was built not far away. Why did you suddenly order people to move this waterfall?" Li Shao still had a lot of wet sweat on his face, He is holding the collar in his right hand to dissipate the heat in his body.

Qin Chunyue's condition was not very good either, her whole face was hot and red.

Seeing this, Luo Yu frowned and asked them after sitting beside Qin Chunyue: "The waterfall is going to be used as a water hotel in the future, but don't you know that there are ice cubes in Huayue Pavilion? Why don't you put some ice in the inner room?" To cool off the heat?"

While speaking, Luo Yu explained a few words to Lu Wei who was following her, and sent her out.

"Does Huayuexuan still have ice cubes? Xiao Yuzi, you are too extravagant. It's fine if you have Pengshifang, and you even bought it from Qingguanlou?"

It's no wonder that Li Shao was so surprised. After all, every year after summer, the whole Great Week is full of dignitaries in some places except for the royal family who can use ice.

Not to mention the high cost of manpower and material resources to build an ice cellar, the number of ice cubes cut in winter was also strictly regulated by the royal family.

After all, there are many people in the palace, so naturally more ice is needed.

In this way, the ice that the local dignitaries can keep, and those who can have an ice cellar, are already top-of-the-line.

That's why Li Shao felt that Luo Yu's wanton use of ice was a waste.

Luo Yu knew that the Luo family had its own ice cellar, but the preservation effect of the ice cellar was obviously not very good. She went to see it with Luo Feng before, and found that the ice cubes in the ice cellar had melted a lot. It has changed a lot.

The time that can really be used is much shorter.

After asking around, the ancient people didn't know that saltpeter could be used to make ice, so she bought the more expensive saltpeter by herself, and tried to make a jar of ice cubes first.

After seeing that it could be successfully produced, he bought 1000 taels of silver saltpeter wantonly, and almost bought all the saltpeter in Qingzhou.

What I thought was that in the future, I might be able to use saltpeter to make ice to do business.

Now that the day is getting hotter and hotter, it is estimated that the plan can be put on the agenda.

After putting away these thoughts, Luo Yu nodded, saying that she put dozens of ice cubes in the ice cellar of Huayuexuan, and there are many extra ice cubes stored in the Luo family ice cellar. If Li Shao and Qin Chunyue want to If she wanted, she could send someone to give them some at that time.

Qin Chunyue stayed in the palace before, and knew that ice cubes were very precious in summer, and it was already rare for a concubine's palace to get a whole chunk of ice in a whole summer.

She was also quite surprised to hear that there were dozens of pieces of ice in Qingguanlou, which had just opened like Huayuexuan.

The first reaction was that Luo Yu spent a lot of money to buy these ice cubes, and immediately waved his hands and refused with a serious expression: "No, no, no, where can we take the ice cubes you spent so much money on?"

Li Shao thinks the same. He only has 56 yuan in the ice cellar at most, which is a little bit reluctant for his own use. How can he give it away?

So he waved his hand and rejected Luo Yu's kind gift.

Lu Wei who went down at this time also came up with a few maidservants carrying ice mirrors and ice drinks.

Generally speaking, when summer arrives, it is already a luxury to place a square of ice mirrors in the house to dispel the heat. Seeing the sight of people rushing in, let alone the maids who brought Sifang ice mirrors into the house, Li Shao and Qin Chunyue All are startled.

"Miss, are these enough? If not, the servant will let them go down and get some."

The size of Sifang Bingjian was deliberately enlarged by Luo Yuxun's craftsman, which is equivalent to a mini version of a modern refrigerator.

Outside the window of the private room, the forest wind kept blowing in, bringing the cool air from the inside of the ice mirror to overflow to the low couch where Qin Chunyue and the others were staying, which was unusual for cooling off the heat.

Luo Yu felt the intensity of the air-conditioning, and shook his head: "No need, these are enough."

As she spoke, she picked up the silver pot of honey citron water chilled with ice cubes, and poured drinks for Qin Chunyue and Li Shao, who had been dumbfounded all along.

"How about it, look at the amount of ice I use now, but you still think that ice is very scarce for me? I said I would give it to you, including I am giving it to Youpeng Shifang and Huayue The ice cubes used by Xuan are not taken from my ice cellar, but made by myself."

A trace of cold air came out of the cup, filling Luo Yu's confident and calm face: "In other words, as long as I want to, I can basically make as many ice cubes as I want."

 Ready to make a lot of money with ice cubes~
