"Miss, ice is expensive," Lu Wan said. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"I know," Lin Qingyan said, "But we can afford it," ancient times are not as good as modern times, buying ice in summer, of course Lin Qingyan has also thought about it, it's not cheap, but the Zijin family and the Lin family have money, and there is still money to buy ice in the summer.
Seeing that Lin Qingyan didn't care about this at all, Lu Wan thought about how to phrase it and knew to Lin Qingyan that buying ice was not a simple matter.
Before Lu Wan could speak, Wuxian next to him said lightly: "Miss, if you can afford it, it doesn't mean that you can buy it everywhere." ”
Lu Wan wanted to say the same thing, seeing that Traceless had already said it, so he echoed and added: "Miss, what the slave wants to say is the same as Traceless, although we can afford to buy ice, but there are not many people who store ice in the summer, we want to buy it, others don't necessarily want to sell it, ice is a rare thing in summer, and money may not be able to buy it." ”
Lin Qingyan stopped, was silent for a few seconds, and then asked Lu Wan: "Ice is so difficult to buy, so where did our Lin family's summer ice go?" ”
Seeing that Lin Qingyan stopped, Lu Wan and Wuxian also stopped, Lu Wan thought about it, and then slowly replied to Lin Qingyan: "The ice in the mansion is all bought from the Li Mansion in the north of the city, and the Li Mansion has business dealings with the Lin family, and the relationship between the lord and the Li family is also very good when he is alive, and there is ice stored in the Li Mansion, so every summer, the weather is too hot, and the lord will ask people to go to the Li Mansion to buy some ice cubes and come back, the quantity is not much, and it is very expensive, so only the lord, the young master, and the young lady will put some ice in the house." ”
Lin Qingyan nodded, didn't speak, lowered his head and thought deeply, as Lu Wan said, ice cubes are expensive and hard to find, so the idea of putting ice cubes in the store to cool down has to be put on hold for a while, and she will have to discuss this matter with Qin Zijin.
After thinking clearly, Lin Qingkai raised his eyes, and saw that Lu Wan and Wuji were staring at him, and couldn't help laughing: "I know what you said, I know that ice is rare, this is not in a hurry in advance, anyway, it is not yet very hot, let me think of other ways, let's go, go to the gate and take a look, Zijin's carriage is here now." As he spoke, he walked in the direction of the gate.
Lu Wan, without a trace followed her closely.
When they were about to get to the gate, the little maid at home saw Lin Qingyan and them coming over here, knowing that they were going out to run errands, so they hurriedly ran to the gate and opened the door, not thinking about it, there was a person standing outside the door, and his hand that was about to slap the door was raised in the air.
Both of them were stunned, the person outside the door was Qin Zijin's servant, he was only stunned for a few seconds, and quickly reacted, and was about to ask the Lin family's servant to help spread the word to Lin Qingyan, but he didn't think about it, but he saw Lin Qingyan and Xiang coming here.
The little guy who opened the door saw Lin Qingyan and hurriedly saluted, Lin Qingyan hummed lightly at him, and he stepped aside and stood quietly.
Lin Qingyan saw that there was Qin Zijin's servant outside the door, and the servant saluted Lin Qingyan and said, "Miss Lin, my son-in-law is already waiting for Miss Lin in the carriage, Miss Lin, get in the carriage quickly." ”
"How long have you been here," Lin Qingyan asked Qin Zijin's little servant as he stepped out of the door.
"My son-in-law has just arrived," the little girl returned.
didn't let Zijin wait for a long time, Lin Qingyan was relieved and walked to Qin Zijin's carriage parked at the door.
Qin Zijin heard the sound of Lin Qingyan and the little guy talking, and he had already come out of the carriage, waiting for Lin Qingyan with a smile on his face.
Seeing Lin Qingyan approaching, he stretched out his hand and handed it to Lin Qingyan, and said with a smile: "Yan'er, why didn't you prepare the carriage today." ”
Lin Qingyan was not hypocritical, handed her over, and let Qin Zijin pull her into the carriage, before he smiled: "I know that Zijin will come to pick me up again today, so I didn't let people prepare the carriage, and I have to take the carriage back when I can save it, so troublesome." ”
The two talked, entered the carriage, Lu Wan also got into the carriage, and when the carriage came, the little guy without a trace and Qin Zijin got into the carriage, and the carriage started.
"Zijin," Lin Qingyan said, "I have something to discuss with you,"
"Say it," Qin Zijin said with a smile.
"It's what we talked about yesterday, Guan Tian made the store not so hot," Lin Qingyan said slowly: "Yesterday you said that you would widen the doors of the front hall and the back hall, but I said no, I thought of putting ice in the store today to cool down, but I heard Lu Wan say that ice is expensive and hard to find, our Lin family's ice is bought from other mansions, and there are not many purchases, I just want to ask you, do your Qin family have any ice storage, or can you contact the house where you buy ice." ”
I didn't expect Lin Qingyan to think of using ice cubes to cool down, Qin Zijin's face was a little solemn, and he pondered for a long time before he said slowly: "Our Qin family has ice storage, but it's just ......"
Hearing that there was ice in the Qin family, Lin Qingyan was overjoyed, and when he heard Qin Zijin say just that, and then he didn't say it later, his heart immediately hung up, and he hurriedly asked: "It's just what, Zijin, you say it quickly." ”
"It's just ice cubes, it's the management of the back house," I know that saying this will make Lin Qingyan unhappy, but some words are not clear, so that they have a misunderstanding, then the gain outweighs the loss, Qin Zijin continued: "The amount of ice cubes, each room is limited, if it is a small amount, I can still evenly out, but if there are too many, I can't take it, if you want to use ice to cool down in the store, the amount will be very large, although the method that Yan'er thought is good, but it is not realistic." ”
After Lin Qingyan heard this, he was silent and lowered his head to think.
Thinking about it, Lin Qingyan also only thought of using ice cubes to cool down, if ice is expensive and can't be bought, then you have to make homemade ice cubes, in modern work, she and her roommate shared a rental house without air conditioning, in the summer, roommates are afraid of flying in from the window too many moths, so they all close the windows, light mosquito coils to sleep, the house is stuffy and hot, she and her roommate's bed each put an electric fan, has been blowing, once a roommate whimsically wanted to make homemade ice cubes to put in the house to cool down, and also checked the Internet to check good information, roommate mentioned to her at the time, she just casually looked at the roommate's information, and the roommate only yelled for two or three days, said to use the online method to make ice, she didn't care, as she messed around, the roommate saw that she didn't take it to heart, she also gave up the matter later, the ice cubes they didn't make, just listened to the roommate read so many times, I also read the information checked by the roommate at the time, now I think about it seriously, imagine that saltpeter and water can be made into gunpowder ingredients can make ice.
Saltpeter can be used to make gunpowder, and it is also a medicine, which can be bought in the fossil factory or in the drugstore, and she can ask Wuji to go to the pharmacy to buy some first and come back and try it herself.
Seeing that Lin Qingyan listened to what he said before, he still had a sad face, but now this time, his sad face has dissipated.
Qin Zijin couldn't help but say, "Yan'er, have you thought of a solution," he said and looked at Lin Qingyan with his eyes attentive. (To be continued.) )
