Chapter 43 Saltpeter Ice Making
"Why not?"
"Wu Gongzi, I'm afraid you don't know what Boss Xiao does, right?"
Wu Di nodded, thinking that if he knew, he wouldn't ask you!
Seeing this, Lu San asked tentatively: "Wu Gongzi, did you want to go to Boss Xiao to ask for an account, or did Mr. Yu let you go?" ā
"How can I say it, although it is Yu Mouli's proposal, I want to go myself!"
Hearing this, Lu San suddenly realized, "I know, I know!" It must be that he knew that Wu Gongzi didn't know Boss Xiao's identity, and deliberately let Wu Gongzi go! ā
When Lu San said this, Wu Di became even more curious.
Who is this Xiao Lishan?
Why does everyone talk about Xiao color change?
"Lu San, tell me quickly, who is this Xiao Lishan? Why is everyone afraid of him? ā
Afraid that Wu Di would be deceived by Yu Mouli again, Lu San immediately talked about it.
"This Boss Xiao has a saltpeter mine under his name, and he has brought a lot of people to mine saltpeter for him on weekdays........."
Lu San spoke for a while, and Wu Di knew the identity of the other party.
It turned out that there was already saltpeter ice-making technology in this era.
However, saltpeter ice making is also very simple, which is nothing more than the principle that saltpeter can quickly absorb heat when it reacts with water, and quickly reduces the temperature of the water to below zero and freezes it.
In this era, there were no refrigerators and air conditioners, and in the summer, ice could only be made in this way to cool down.
However, because of the limited saltpeter mines, there are still a few people who can use ice in the hot summer, and they are nothing more than relatives of the emperor and princes and ministers.
And to provide saltpeter raw materials to these magnates is undoubtedly a very important link, those saltpeter mining owners because they can access some high-level magnates, although they have no officials and no titles, but everyone sees them but respectfully can't.
And Xiao Lishan is such a person.
The saltpeter mine in Qinan City is not small, and it is the closest to the capital, and more than half of the saltpeter mined by Xiao Lishan every year is sent to the palace, and the rest is supplied to those princes and ministers.
A person who has been dealing with the emperor's relatives all the year round naturally eats in Qi Nan City, whether it is the prefect or Qi Nanhou, they all value him very much.
This is also the reason why Sun Xingdao dared to let Zhao Jimao and Liu Hongjin settle the bill, but he didn't have the courage to settle the bill with Xiao Lishan.
It's not a grade at all!
At this time, Wu Di found that this matter was even more tricky.
A mine owner like Xiao Lishan, there is no shortage of money, and he also wants face, if he goes to him to ask for an account, isn't it a slap in the face?
It's no wonder he agrees!
But thinking of Yu Mouli's disgusting face, Wu Di gritted his teeth and was ruthless: No matter, even if you are the mine owner?
This silver, it must be!
ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦
"This Boss Xiao has a big industry!"
Wu Di said to himself: "It's just a meal, it must not be difficult!" ā
Lu San pursed his lips, thinking that it would definitely not be difficult for him to pay, but it would be very difficult for him to pay!
"Lu San, do you know where the saltpeter mine is?"
"Yes, it'sā"
Halfway through his words, Lu San's eyes widened, and he stared at Wu Di incredulously, "Wu Gongzi, you won't go to the saltpeter mine to settle the bill with Boss Xiao, right?" ā
"Knot, of course it's going to end! It is only natural to repay debts. If I don't care about the accounts, then I have the right not to know about it, but now that I am in charge of the accounts, I will naturally have to get back the debts!
Can't be like some people, occupy the pit and not, so what's the point of doing this accounting room? ā
Suddenly, Wu Di raised a lot of pitch when he spoke, and glanced up with disdain, Lu San felt that something was not right, and hurriedly looked back, and saw that Yu Mouli had already walked out of the box on the second floor, and was standing in the middle of the stairs at the moment, looking at them with a wicked smile.
"Well said! Well said! ā
Yu Mouli clapped his hands and laughed, looking like he was begging for a beating.
"Since Wu Gongzi is so impartial and responsible, without further ado, let's hurry up and ask for the account now! Oh, by the way, the old man has already asked the shopkeeper Sun for instructions, when Wu Gongzi went to ask for the account, the old man will temporarily manage the account of the restaurant for Wu Gongzi, Wu Gongzi doesn't need to thank him, just rest assured! ā
Yu Mouli is waiting to see Wu Di's good show now, and he can't wait for him to go now.
"Wu Gongzi, don't ........."
Lu San was afraid that Wu Di would be provoked by Yu Mouli, and his head would be hot, so he directly agreed to come down and it was over, so he secretly pulled him and reminded him in a low voice.
It's just that Yu Mouli was too close to them, and Lu San's reminders were all heard by him, and his face immediately became gloomy!
Eat dog stuff inside and out!
Yu Mouli glared at Lu San hatefully, thinking that as long as Wu Di couldn't collect the account at the specified time, he would quickly force him to get out, and when the time came, he would clean up these wall grasses one by one!
However, Lu San, an anti-bone boy who still helped Wu Di speak in front of him, Yu Mouli couldn't bear it for a moment!
"Presumably, Wu Gongzi has not been in Qi Nancheng for a long time, and he still doesn't know where Boss Xiao lives, so let's do it, Lu San has been following Wu Gongzi for the past few days, and he can also help you lead the way, what does Wu Gongzi think?"
"Okay, that's it!"
Wu Di naturally knew what Yu Mouli meant, and thought that he couldn't get angry when he heard Lu San help him, so he deliberately let Lu San follow him, and if Xiao Lishan refused to repay the debt and anger himself, Lu San couldn't run!
This old dog is very harmful!
But this is better, first, with Lu San following, it is much more convenient to find Xiao Lishan by himself, and if Lu San is left in the restaurant, I am afraid that Yu Mouli will inevitably wear small shoes, and taking him with him can be regarded as protecting him!
"Then I wish Wu Gongzi a victory!"
Hearing Wu Di's promise, Yu Mou Lile couldn't close his mouth.
"Mr. Yu, please do it! If you can stay in Drunken Fragrance for a few more days, you will stay for a few more days, and even if you want to in the future, I am afraid that you will not have a chance! ā
"Hehe, this doesn't bother Wu Gongzi! Wu Gongzi has this kung fu, it is better to worry more about himself! ā
The two of them hid knives in their smiles, seemingly calm and abnormal, but in fact they were secretly sharp.
After finishing speaking, they snorted coldly at each other, Yu Mouli entered the counter, and Wu Di pulled Lu San, took the account book, and walked out of the drunken fragrance house.
(Keep begging shamelessly - you won't give it anyway, wah, wow, wow, wow, ......)
