Chapter 131: Broken Ice

After chatting, Cai Xiaoxiao got to the point, and she asked Zheng Yi: "What about the ice cubes you brought?" ”

"It's in the warehouse." Zheng Yi said.

"Didn't melt away, did you?" Cai Xiaoxiao squinted and asked him.

"Of course not, I'm keeping it well." Zheng Yi said, "How is it, do you want to see it?" ”

"Go, of course." Cai nodded slightly.

So Zheng Yi took Cai Xiaoxiao and Zhao Kangcheng to the warehouse, and on the way, Zheng Yi said to Cai Xiaoxiao: "The cow you want will be here in three days." ”

Cai Xiaoxiao said: "It's okay, I'm not in a hurry." ”

When the three of them arrived at the door of the warehouse, they found that the warehouse that Zheng Yi said was sealed and unventilated, apparently to prevent wind or sunlight from entering and melting the ice.

Zheng Yi opened the warehouse door, the three of them walked in, Zheng Yi lit the fuel lamp, so Cai Xiaoxiao and Zhao Kangcheng saw the three large boxes stored inside, and the boxes were covered with a thick quilt.

"The ice is right in here." Zheng Yi walked over, opened the box, and said.

Cai Xiaoxiao and Zhao Kangcheng also walked over, and the two of them looked into the box, and then instantly felt the cold air rushing to their faces-

"So much?" Cai Xiaoxiao said in surprise. The box was filled with ice, much more than she had estimated.

"Too much? I thought you needed a lot. Zheng Yi looked confused.

"No, I'm worried so much, I can't use so much for a while, will it melt away after a long time?" It would be a pity if it melted away.

"Don't worry, these ice cubes will last for two months." Zheng Yi said with a smile.

"Two months?" Cai Xiaoxiao thought about it and felt that two months would be enough, "That's fine." ”

After looking at the ice cubes, the three of them left the warehouse, and before leaving the warehouse, Cai Xiaoxiao and Zhao Kangcheng were holding a piece of ice packed in a box.

Cai Xiaoxiao asked Zheng Yi: "So many ice cubes cost a lot of money, right?" How much is the total amount, and I will have the silver sent over later. ”

"No, you don't." Zheng Yi waved his hand and rejected Cai Xiaoxiao, "Didn't we sign a cooperation agreement before?" These are the investments I made in cooperation with you, and after making money, sister-in-law, you can give me my share. ”

"That's right." Cai Xiaoxiao smiled, "Then these ice cubes will be put here for you first, we don't have a place to store them there, and I will send Xiao Wu and them to pick them up when I need them." ”

"Yes."

After talking to Zheng Yi about the ice cubes, Cai Xiaoxiao and Zhao Kangcheng said goodbye and returned to the small town house.

Back at the house in Xiaocheng, Cai Xiaoxiao and Zhao Kangcheng came to the kitchen with ice cubes, and Zhao Kangcheng asked her, "Do you want to make iced juice?" ”

"It's not." Cai Xiaoxiao smiled and shook her head, "I'm going to make smoothies." ”

"Smoothies?" Zhao Kangcheng looked puzzled.

"Yes. Xianggong, you just look at it. Cai Xiaoxiao first rinsed the ice cubes with water to make sure they were clean - after all, they were meant to be eaten.

Then she found an iron basin and put the ice cubes in it, then brought a hammer - before using it, she also rinsed it with clean water, and then began to use the hammer to hammer the ice into broken ice.

It's not as broken as modern machines, but it's pretty much the same

After making the crushed ice, Cai Xiaoxiao asked Zhao Kangcheng to find some apples, and then she first wrapped the crushed ice in a thick cloth and put it in a cool place, and then took the red beans and put them in the pot to cook.

In the process of boiling red beans, Cai Xiaoxiao turned all the apples brought by Zhao Kangcheng into apple juice and put them aside for later use.

After the red beans were cooked, she took them out, added some white sugar and stirred, and then mixed them with the juice, then took out the crushed ice, put the crushed ice into a bowl, poured the red bean and apple juice on it, stirred it, and then brought it to Zhao Kangcheng, and said with a smile: "Okay, red bean and apple smoothie, Xianggong, please taste it." ”

Zhao Kangcheng looked at the crushed ice in the bowl, and looked at Cai Xiaoxiao with some hesitation, but upholding the principle of believing in Cai Xiaoxiao, although he was still a little skeptical in his heart, he still scooped up a spoonful of crushed ice with a spoon and put it in his mouth-

Good ice! It's so sweet! It's icy and sweet, but it makes him feel delicious instantly, probably because the ice of the ice cubes hides the sweetness and only retains the sweetness, so it makes him feel delicious. And after eating it, the whole person feels very cool!

"How?" Cai Xiaoxiao held her cheek with one hand and asked him with a smile.

Zhao Kangcheng nodded and said, "It will be very popular." "It's really good to sell in the summer.

"That's for sure." Cai Xiaoxiao smiled confidently, then divided the remaining crushed ice into four parts, brought it to the front yard, and gave one to each of Zhao Wu, and kept one for himself.

When she took the first bite, Cai Xiaoxiao felt that the whole person was satisfied, she squinted her eyes, and enjoyed it very much - sure enough, eating ice in summer was the fastest!

Zhao Wu and the three of them also liked it, almost spoonful after spoonful into their mouths, Cai Xiaoxiao saw that they were eating so fast, and hurriedly reminded: "Don't eat too fast, beware of cold stomachs!" ”

After her reminder, Zhao Wusan slowed down his movements.

The customer who came in the store saw that each of the five of them was holding a bowl of unknown things in his hand, and asked curiously, "Boss, what are you eating?" It feels delicious. ”

When Cai Xiaoxiao heard this, he smiled at them mysteriously: "New product." ”

"Huh? New? Where is it? When the guests heard this, they hurriedly looked around, trying to see where the so-called new product was.

Cai Xiaoxiao said with a smile: "I haven't sold it in the store for the time being, today this is just a trial product, and it will take a while to wait for the real sale, please don't worry." ”

"Eh......" Seeing that it will take a while, the guests are a little disappointed, but Cai Xiaoxiao has already said so, and they can't say anything.

After eating the smoothie, Cai Xiaoxiao asked Zhao Wu to break up the remaining ice cubes, then put them in the box, and then put the juice in to chill, and then said to them: "This juice can be sold on ice for an hour, and the price is two more copper plates than the original." "Although smoothies can't be sold for the time being, iced juices can still be sold.

"Yes, ma'am." Zhao Wu and the others nodded to indicate that they understood.

After waiting for an hour, Zhao Jie changed the juice on the menu outside to the words "chilled juice", and at the same time changed the price later.

The guests who came in saw the changed menu on it, walked in and asked Cai Yan, who was standing behind the counter, in confusion: "Girl, what does the cold juice written on the outside mean?" ”

"This is it." Cai Yan smiled and took out the iced juice and explained to the guests, "This juice is specially iced by us with ice cubes, and drinking it in summer will make you feel very cool, as if you are in ice and snow." ”

"Huh? Ice cube? It's amazing that you can still get ice cubes. The guests lamented that after all, ice cubes were not so easy to get in ancient times, and even if they could get them, they might not have the money to buy them.
