Chapter 243: The Making of Ice Powder

A trace of doubt flashed in Gu Jinfeng's eyes, and just as he was about to put down the paper in his hand, Qi Ling, who had just finished bathing, lifted the curtain with wet hair and walked out of the back hall.

"Huh? Why haven't you gone to sleep yet? His gaze fell on his hand holding the paper again, and Qi Ling raised his eyebrows, "You don't sleep at night just to monitor the progress?" ”

"Progress?" Gu Jinfeng looked dazed: "What progress?" ”

Qi Ling smiled and walked to the table and picked up the one pressed at the bottom, on which he simply drew a shop faΓ§ade with a black charcoal pen, Gu Jinfeng knew it.

"Now that the business of the medical center has just stabilized, you are in such a hurry to open another shop, are you not afraid of losing money?"

"Don't worry, I, Qi Ling, have always been stable in doing things, since you are the bookkeeper, Mr. must know the profitability of the medical hall today, and if you want to roll money, it will definitely not work by relying on this medical hall alone."

"So you're planning to open another recipe?"

Qi Ling cleaned up the paper on the table and sat down, looking at him with burning eyes, "What do you think?" Now it's just in the planning for the time being, and it will take some time to wait until the direction is determined to find the source of the shop and then recruit the workers, and I just have an idea now. ”

"Whatever you want." Gu Jinfeng put down the paper and turned to leave, Qi Ling hurriedly stopped him, "Hey, have you encountered anything recently?" If there is anything to say, let's solve it together, it's easy to have a heart disease if you keep it in your heart! ”

"You don't have to."

Looking at the figure that disappeared behind the curtain, Qi Ling was puzzled, what happened to this guy recently, eat*?

But now the most important thing is the plan for his own shop, and everything else has been left behind.

"Young Master Zhou?" Steward Hu never thought that this Fushou Lou would have such a background, Lin Shoufu's people... Now it's a hot existence in the capital!

"Get out of here!!" There was a sound of smashed utensils in the room, since he was humiliated for making trouble a few days ago, Zhou Cheng's mood has been bad, and he has to beat and scold anyone, and the shopkeeper Hu has really suffered these days.

Now An Rentang's reputation has plummeted, even if it is opened again, no one dares to come to buy medicine, and there are so many items in the inventory that are worth at least a thousand taels of silver.

was so shocked by such an angry shout that he took a few steps back, and the manager was full of disdain, if he didn't have to rely on the reputation of the Zhou family to eat, how could he nod his head here?

This shop can be said to be a good place to make money by yourself, how can you just let it close?

Steward Hu thought about it for several days, and when he accidentally passed by Fushou Building, he heard the young man at the door say that the man surnamed Ning seemed to be gone...... He suddenly figured it out.

Tidy up his clothes, the housekeeper came to the door and said, "Young Master Zhou, don't be too angry, the little one who heard that the surname Ning seems to have left Suming County......"

"Squeak"

Zhou Cheng, whose face was uncertain, opened the door and looked at Steward Hu condescendingly, "You said that guy is gone?" When did you leave? ”

"I heard that I left yesterday, and I should have been gone for almost two or three days, young master, look ......"

"Heh, it's obvious that you caused the mess yourself, and you let Young Master Ben give you a head, don't you care about things, do you really think that Young Master Ben is a fool?"

"No, no, no! How could it be! "Steward Hu looked panicked, "The small one is also for the Zhou family, although this shop is not big, but the annual income is also hundreds of thousands of taels, and now there is one more Fushou Building, the income must be greatly discounted......"

"That's it!" Zhou Cheng waved his hand impatiently, "Young Master Ben is not interested in your business, what are you doing here today, get out of here!" ”

Steward Hu sighed and felt a little regretful, "The young master doesn't know that now this Fushou Building is in full swing, and it completely compares Anrentang to the bottom, even if Anrentang is opened again, I'm afraid it can only lose money, the small one has been in charge here for seven or eight years, and he is really a little reluctant, and now there are pills worth thousands of taels in the warehouse, and the small one is thinking about finding a time to sell them at a low price, so he specially came to ask the young master ......"

"You're going to close Anrentang?"

Steward Hu wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and the bitterness on his face, "It's not that I am willing to close, but this Fushou Building is really difficult to deal with, and I really can't open it!" ”

Zhou Cheng frowned, "You can stay with those pills, this Young Master Anrentang will find a way." ”

Steward Hu looked surprised: "Could it be that the young master has a way to bring An Rentang back to life?" ”

"It's not enough to bring the dead back to life, but it's enough to catch the other party off guard......" Zhou Chengyin chuckled and beckoned to Steward Hu, "You come and help me do something." ”

Qi Ling has been busy planning the new shop for the past few days, and the business of the medical hall has completely entered the formal, basically without her interfering, so that she can concentrate on thinking about the snack shop.

Now it's almost the end of April, and the weather is gradually getting hotter, and if it's hot, you must want to eat something cold, so Qi Ling's attention is to open a cold drink shop!

It's just that in ancient times, there were neither refrigerators nor air conditioners, and the source of this ice became the biggest problem.

In ancient times, the ice was stored in the cellar in winter, and then taken out to cool off in the summer, which was generally limited to the benefits of officials in the capital, and a small place like Suming County basically didn't have to think about it, so after thinking about it again, Qi Ling decided to start with ice powder.

In the original world, eating ice powder in summer is definitely the most wonderful thing!

On a hot summer day, no amount of ice-cold drinks can match this bowl of sweet and refreshing ice powder!

Moreover, ice powder has the effect of clearing heat and removing fire, so it is perfect in summer.

And this jelly is not complicated to make, what is needed is a seed called ice powder seeds, which she easily found in the pharmacy, and then found some lime as a fixative and began to make food from her hometown for the first time in this dynasty!

First take a wooden basin and put it in a cool white boil and a little lime to mix evenly and leave it for half an hour, then take a wooden basin and pour half a basin of cold water, then take a cloth bag and put the ice powder seeds into it, and then enter the water and rub it for ten minutes.

At this time, you can see that the originally clear cold water in the basin has become very turbid and viscous, full of small bubbles, and then take the lime water and pour it into it while stirring clockwise, and you can stop after feeling a slight resistance and feeling that most of the ice powder liquid has begun to solidify.

Take a thin sieve and strain it, leaving behind a clear gelatinous body, and call Liuzi to put this full pot of finished products into a cool well to cool, and wait until an hour later you can take it out and eat.

Liuzi was a little puzzled: "Big boss, what are you doing here?" Can this thing be eaten? ”

Qi Ling fetched water and washed his hands, and snorted, "Then don't make any noise for another bowl later!" ”
