Chapter 229: The Way to Fortune
Fang Yiai took out the money bag with a dejected face, poured it down for a long time, and only poured out a few copper plates, he lost a lot just now, and these copper plates were already his full belongings. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Cheng Boxian's situation is not good, her luck is more hobby than Fang Yi, she won a few at the beginning, but she didn't expect Li Jingye to suddenly kill all sides, and after becoming a landlord, she won seven in a row, and won all the money he and Fang Yiai.
"I'll just order it, do you like it!" Cheng Boxian angrily pushed a few copper plates, and said as a scoundrel, according to the regulations, each person should make ten copper plates per game to make lottery heads, and of course his copper plates are not enough.
"Hey, Brother Cheng, how can you be such a scoundrel?"
Of course Li Jingye refused, and angrily pointed at Cheng Boxian and reprimanded.
Cheng Boxian is really a little afraid of this bold guy, An He knows that Li Jingye later dared to entangle a group of people to raise troops against Wu Zetian and want to be the emperor himself, which shows how bold this guy is.
An He looked at Li Jingye and Fang Yiai who were playing in Xingtou with a strange mood, he knew that the two of them were in a different place because of the rebellion, and now they are all good friends of their own, since they already know their future fate, they have to think of a way no matter what, to see if they can change their life trajectory, so as to change their fate.
As soon as Li Jingye was angry, he immediately lost the rogue momentum that Cheng Boxian was frightened, and shrank his head to look at Fang Yiai for help, Fang Yiai covered his money bag, and said with a helpless expression:
"I don't have much left, and if Brother Li continues to win like this, this little money won't be able to support a few games."
"Brother Li, why don't I write an IOU?"
Cheng Boxian couldn't help himself when he saw his bereavement, so he had no choice but to choose the last way.
"It's not impossible to write an IOU, but it's ......"
Li Jingye's eyes rolled when he said this, and he looked at Cheng Boxian with a wicked smile on his face, and suddenly stretched out his hand and snatched the jade pendant from Cheng Boxian's waist and said with a smile:
"But this jade pendant will be placed here with me first, and it will be counted as a mortgage!"
Cheng Boxian didn't notice it for a while, but he let Li Jingye succeed, and he was in a hurry at the moment, and shouted loudly while grabbing it: "Give it back to me!" It's a family heirloom passed down to me by my father, and I can't give it to you! ”
"No, this is a mortgage for the money you owe, and I will give it to you when you pay it back." Li Jingye held the jade pendant with a grin, and jumped his feet to prevent Cheng Boxian from reaching it.
When the two were fighting, suddenly a hand reached over and took the jade pendant in Li Jingye's hand, who else could there be in the pavilion besides An He.
He took the jade pendant in his hand and looked at it, and smiled at Li Jingye:
"Brother Li, you are really greedy enough, you want to exchange a jade pendant for a few pennies?"
"Cut~, I didn't say I wanted it, but I just used it as collateral."
Li Jingye tried to snatch it back from An He's hands, but he tried several times without success, so he replied with a disdainful face.
"Okay, isn't it just a few pennies, I'll pay it back for Brother Cheng."
An He threw the jade pendant to Cheng Boxian and said to Li Jingye with a smile.
"Hmph, Brother An, you have a lot of money, it's not easy to save a little money like us who are poor."
didn't get the jade pendant he wanted, Li Jingye was still unwilling, but since An He had promised to repay the debt for Cheng Boxian, he couldn't mess around, so he could only say sourly.
"Thank you, Brother An, you are my great benefactor!" Li Zhi took the jade pendant, and very exaggeratedly pounced on An He to hug him and give him a hug, with a grateful expression. But An He will not be confused by this kid, Cheng Boxian is a wall grass without discipline, maybe he will sell himself at some point.
"Brother Li, listen to what you mean, you seem to be quite short of money, what's going on?"
An He turned to Li Jingye, who was still angry, and asked, It is said that the children and grandchildren of these ministers should not worry about money.
Hearing An He ask about this, Cheng Boxian said:
"Brother An, you are a full man and I don't know that a hungry man is hungry, there are still some silver taels, but most of the money is invested in the cement factory, although the scale of the cement plant is not small, but because the cement plant has just been built, it will take some time to make a profit."
Fang Yiai echoed:
"Yes, Andy, what good do you have, come to the way to get money quickly, just help us!"
Although Fang Yiai's family does not save money, most of the money is controlled by Princess Gaoyang, and he is usually very tight. ”
"Qingyun, let someone bring another ice cream." An He thought of a way to help them earn money, but instead of saying it directly, he commanded Qingyun.
"Brother An, we all begged you so, are you still in the mood to eat ice cream?" Li Jingye's face was very dissatisfied, but this kid immediately shouted to Qingyun, who had not gone far,
"I want a double portion!"
"I~ Me too!"
When the two Fang Yiai and Cheng Boxian, who were pretending to be pitiful, heard that they were going to eat ice cream, they immediately couldn't help it, and shouted loudly.
"Alright, don't pretend!"
An He shook his shoulders and said helplessly:
"You're such a big person, and you're still playing scoundrels with me? Isn't it just to earn some pocket money, I've figured out a way! ”
"Really~!"
Cheng Boxian and Fang Yiai immediately jumped up happily when they heard this, they were convinced of their talent as an Zhonglang general, otherwise how could they make things like Wuliangye and cement?
"Brother An, tell me quickly, what method do you use to make money?"
Li Jingye also stood up excitedly and asked expectantly.
"Remember that little trick I taught you before lunch today?"
An He sat down and picked up the fruit, took a bite and asked.
"Remember, isn't it the ...... who made ice out of saltpeter?"
Fang Yiai first replied with a puzzled face, but halfway through speaking, his face suddenly became happy, and he exclaimed excitedly:
"Ahh I see, Andy you want us to sell ice? ”
Hearing Fang Yiai's words, Li Jingye and Cheng Boxian also understood.
In such hot weather, ice has always been a very precious thing to cool off, and even the emperor used ice to reward ministers. Although they are all children of official eunuchs, there is a limit to the amount of ice they can use on weekdays, and the amount is not much, and generally they are only used for food and cooling down when the weather is particularly hot, and there is no more when they run out.
If you use saltpeter to make ice for sale at this time, it will definitely attract countless people to grab it, after all, except for a few wealthy nobles, few people can dig a huge ice cellar to hide ice.
However, Li Jingye was happy for a while, and immediately thought of a question, so he asked:
"Brother An, your method is good, but this saltpeter ice is inedible, otherwise like me, you will definitely have diarrhea?"
"Stupid, you don't want people to design a container with saltpeter and water in the mezzanine to cool it, put some clean water in it, and then just use the ice inside."
An He patted Li Jingye's head and reprimanded.
"That's right, why didn't I think of it, it's still Brother An's smart!"
Although he was hit on the head, Li Jingye still had a smile on his face.
"In addition, this saltpeter ice has another advantage, that is, after the saltpeter is used, it can be used repeatedly after drying, so the cost is extremely low.
An He had already thought of the cold drink shop in the future, and if one could appear in Datang, it was estimated that the business would be absolutely hot. (To be continued.) )
