Chapter 259: Ice Melted
"Borrow ice?"
"Chilled peach blossom brewing has become popular all over Huai'an, now, if anyone has tasted a pot of peach blossom brew, it is a thing worth talking about, Dong is thinking, I don't know if I can borrow some ice from the shopkeeper, and make Xinglin Medical Hall widely known by taking advantage of the momentum of entering the wine."
"I wonder how Steward Dong is going to act?"
"The summer is hot, easy to produce internal fire, in Guangzhou, the people will boil herbal tea to reduce the fire to escape the heat, in addition, Wuzhou, there is a local recipe, dedicated to clearing heat and detoxifying, nourishing yin and nourishing the kidneys to reduce the fire."
"Turtle jelly?"
Steward Dong was stunned and continued: "Poria soup." β
"You go on."
"Poria cocos, honeysuckle, dandelion, monk fruit, and a little sugar are boiled together to get Poria soup. I would like to take this opportunity to introduce Poria cocos soup, with a little ice, maybe I can sell a lot, but I don't need a lot of ice, just a little bit, it's a gimmick. β
After saying that, Steward Dong looked at her, and then lowered his eyes.
He didn't say anything else, just waited quietly for her reply.
That's it.
For a moment, she fell silent.
She felt ...... What did I miss.
Staring at the person in front of him, his head spun and turned quickly, about the Xinglin Medical Hall, according to Dong Xinglin's ability, something should happen in the medical hall, such as being deceived by the medicinal herb dealer, it should be more than once, but nothing happened, everything was going well, and now the reason should have been found.
The reason is that the person in front of him - he should have avoided a lot of traps for Dong Xinglin.
And this person dares to think and do.
How popular the chilled peach blossom brew has been recently, even if she doesn't go to the shop much, of course she knows it, but no one has come to "borrow ice" from her.
Dong Wu didn't speak again for a while.
She took a breath and said, "No problem, you can do it." β
Speak for it.
He first bowed, and then raised his head: "Thank you shopkeeper." β
"Thanks for what? That's not my shop. β
"Thank you for your trust."
"I still have something to do, so you can go and get busy."
"Shopkeeper, how do I get the ice?"
"When?"
"Tomorrow."
"Tomorrow morning, I'll ask Hong Zhenwu to bring you a basin, how about it?"
"That's for the best."
"But it's only that big." She stretched out her hand and gestured: "It's been hot recently, and the ice has melted a lot, and it won't be long before there is no ice." β
"Enough is enough, I will first put the Poria soup in the well water, it is cold enough, and then add some ice, that is, dip it into the light, and take a good color."
It's just three words of "good luck".
Tightly.
A swarthy figure came running.
Straight to the printing hall.
And then.
The swarthy shadow approached, and I saw a dark face.
"Shopkeeper, it's not good!"
Suddenly.
My heart tightened.
The back of the neck is cold.
"Where did it burn?"
"Just ......" Hong Zhenwu couldn't pick it up in one breath: "Just ...... Just ......"
A meal is in a hurry.
She stammered: "Here, here, where is it burning?" β
"Let's ......" Hong Zhenwu gasped, and hurriedly finished in one breath: "Just our house, the back house, I don't know what's going on, it's burning!" β
Hong Zhenwu looked left and right.
Hurry up and run over here.
Tightly together, he whispered, "The ice cellar is bad!" β
"Whew-"
Let out a long breath.
She thought it was about to go into the lees.
A place that has spent so many manpower, material and financial resources, and so much thought has been spent on a place that is equivalent to a small cave for her, if it is burned by a fire, she swears that she will definitely make the hometown of the person who made it bad to a fire and burn it all brightly!!
Just ice cellars.
It's a big deal that I won't be able to sell chilled peach blossom stuffed tomorrow.
Sun Xiaohou can't sell chilled sour plum juice.
Steward Dong can't borrow ice here.
Besides......
Wait, who burned her ice cellar?
"How did it burn?"
"No, I don't know!"

She didn't go to the shop anymore, and she didn't care about the printing hall, so she hurried back to Luqiao Lane.
Although it was a hot day.
The weather is dry.
Beware of candles.
Butβ
She thinks that it is not very likely that her house will burn or burn a fire.
There are few people in the house on weekdays, except for Hong Youwei's father, daughter-in-law and daughter, Hong Zhenwu's father, and Shishi's mother, as well as Sun Xiaoshan, everyone else is busy outside, and a few people in the house only make a fire when they are cooking.
When the fire started, it was just before the meal was prepared.
UnlessβSun Dashan played with fire.
Shi Niang said that Sun Dashan was under her nose at the time, and he definitely didn't play with fire, let alone run into the ice cellar behind him.
The ice cellar was covered with thick linen cloth around the perimeter.
Just light a fire, in fact, it can't burn yet.
The most suspicious place.
The door to the ice cellar opened wide.
I didn't study it, anyway, someone had bad intentions - specially came to destroy the ice cellar.
"Auntie, who was here at that time?"
"Been here? When, no one came! β
"And what are you doing?"
"I'm ......" Aunt Hong's eyes were red, and she was about to cry as she spoke.
"You old woman, you can't look at an ice cellar, do you know how much money you have to earn a day for the ice in the ice cellar? Can we afford to lose? You're in trouble! β
Another Aunt Hong hurriedly said: "Blame me, blame me, if I hadn't asked my eldest sister to help me look at the kitchen, I wouldn't have ...... Let people take advantage of the loopholes. β
"Looking at the kitchen?"
"I asked someone to send some rice and noodles, and we counted them...... Hey, the owner, will it ......?"
"The person who sent the thing, but the person who knows each other on a daily basis?"
Aunt Hong nodded: "Xiaozhou, the boat of Hongde Rice Fang, has always been the rice and noodles he sent." He was supposed to come yesterday, but he only sent some of them, saying that he would send some more today. β
Uncle Hong said: "No, it was on fire at the time, and he was in the thatched house." β
"That's right...... He had a stomach upset, so he borrowed our thatched house for use, so I asked Brother Hong to take him to the thatched house, and not long after, I heard someone shouting that there was a fire in the back. β
"Who shouted?"
The few people in the room didn't know.
If you don't know, you don't know.
Go to Hongde Rice Fang.
"The boat?"
"Xiaozhou went back to his hometown."
"Where is his hometown?"
"Far away, Fu'an, said that there was an urgent matter at home and he left in a hurry, and I paid him this month's money."
The boat in Hongde Rice Fang has lost contact.
She went to Ah Kun and asked him to help inquire.
It was about the fire on the side of Luqiao Lane, and soon after, Xiaozhou left Huai'an City.
Vendors on the edge of the city, he was seen leaving.
"Check out, where has he been lately?"
The speed at which Ah Kun did things.
Class.
Early the next morning.
Ah Kun came to the house and said two words: "Zhou Sheng." β
Look.
There are no impermeable walls.
The conversations between Zhou Sheng and Xiaozhou all fell on her ears, including, what happened in Moss Town a few days ago.
