Chapter 157: Pure Ice Gate

I saw that in the col, there were nearly 100 ice blocks about two feet in diameter and one foot high.

Like translucent white thick cakes, stacked into a wall of ice doors one foot high.

In the middle of the ice gate, three or four people can enter together, and in addition to the thick cakes piled up, there are several irregular stones covered with oilcloth on the left and right sides of the ice gate, and the top of the door is covered by bamboo.

It can be seen three-dimensionally that the top of the bamboo door is half a zhang thick.

The col itself is low, so this door frame is more visible, and from the carriage, you can see the whole ice gate.

And the cool air just now was because the wind was coming from top to bottom, through the col towards the carriage.

"Cousin, how much silver is so much ice worth?"

Boss Zhao swallowed nervously.

He knew that Ning Wuxian put out such a big ice gate, and he definitely didn't put it out to play.

It was specially placed for him and his cousin!

But he didn't know much about the market situation of ice cubes, so he was afraid that he would be timid after a while, so he inquired in advance.

"If I'm not mistaken, these round cake-shaped ice cubes can weigh 200 catties each."

Yu Glacier is in the business of storing and selling ice.

His eyes are rulers.

After a little measurement, I already calculated the weight of these ice cubes in my mind.

"Two hundred pounds of ice cakes?"

Boss Zhao was startled when he heard Yu Bingxue's words.

After thinking about it, just take a few pieces of ice in the ice basin in your room and you can have about ten catties, and these are thick ice cakes.

In the winter, the two-foot-wide basin was frozen into an ice lump, and he really couldn't move it if he wanted to.

"Cousin, he used a hundred pieces of ice for this door, right?"

"I counted, exactly a hundred."

Yu Bing didn't know whether he was frozen or frightened, and his voice was trembling.

"Cousin, it's the first time I've seen an ice gate like this."

It's spectacular!

It's unimaginable.

Boss Zhao felt that his cousin's words were a bit exaggerated, and he was completely increasing the morale of others and destroying his own prestige.

"Cousin, you have so many ice cellars, just smash a few pieces of ice out, it's not worth more than this ice gate, don't make a fuss, Ning Wuxian just wants to use this ice door to show his arrogance, so as to show that his ice price is cheap, if we fall for his ......"

"You know what?!"

Yu Bingbing interrupted Boss Zhao's words excitedly, and pointed to the big ice gate that shocked him.

"Ordinary ice cubes, it is indeed not something that ordinary people can afford, the price of ten catties of ice, according to the quality of softness, hardness and turbidity, the price ranges from half a tael of silver to two taels of silver, but these ice, it is transparent!"

What's wrong with the transparent one?

Boss Zhao was puzzled.

He remembered that in the middle of summer last year, when a Jinguang specially ordered a pot of untimely summer autumn chrysanthemums, he had taken 100 catties of ice flowers from his cousin.

The cheapest ice he took at that time cost thirty taels after the discount, and he sold the pot of flowers for nine hundred taels, and after removing all the costs, he made a net profit of three hundred taels.

He didn't care about transparency at the time, but wasn't this ice used by Ning Wuxiao to raise flowers?

It is impossible for Ning Wuxian to use the most expensive ice on the market to raise flowers, and he doesn't know how much he will lose if he makes a bottle of perfume from a pot of flowers raised like that.

"Do you understand transparency?"

Yu Bingbing saw that Boss Zhao hadn't recovered yet, so he was so anxious that he yelled.

"These doors that make ice doors, I know they can eat at a glance!"

"Edible ice is sold by the pound...... Some even sell it by two, the ice that the rich eat, the most expensive kind of ice, is like the ice that has just been formed with fresh water in winter, the texture is transparent and there are no unnecessary impurities, this kind of ice, one or two ice is worth one or two silver! ”

So expensive?!

Boss Zhao had indeed heard of such ice.

But a person with a net worth like him naturally hasn't tried it.

If it weren't for his cousin's family selling ice, a family like him, who earns only tens of thousands of taels a year, would not dare to buy ice for himself in the summer.

At most, the heat is unbearable, and it is suitable for pregnant women or patients at home who are afraid of heat, so they will spend money to buy winter ice that tastes like flowing water in summer.

"One tael of ice and one tael of silver, one piece of ice is two thousand taels for two hundred catties, and one hundred pieces of ice is ......"

Boss Zhao gasped, and then looked at the ice gate in the col, the whole person seemed to have been struck by lightning, from the inside to the outside, from the feet to the head.

200,000 taels of ice.

was placed in the col like this by Ning Wuxian, and let it melt under the scorching sun?!

It's a terrible thing.

"Cousin, you miscalculated, the kind of ice I just talked about, although it is called pure ice, but after half a year, it can't reach the level of translucency in front of you!"

He has an ice cellar at home, so naturally he tried to store pure ice.

But for various reasons, without exception they all failed.

For the first time in his life, Yu Bing saw this kind of pure ice, like pure ice that had just been frozen from winter to summer, and the ice cubes had just been stored without any loss.

I really didn't expect Ning Wuxian to have such a way to get such an ice cube!

If he can get these pure ice to eat, it will definitely be the first in Jinling.

What kind of ice cubes did he sell for cooling, he went directly to sell the ice he ate, and in less than two years, he replaced the dead Ye family and became one of the top three wealthy businessmen in Jinling.

"Cousin, you sit, I'll go down first!"

Yu Bingbing didn't care to explain to Boss Zhao.

He hurriedly stopped the carriage, jumped off, and stumbled towards the ice gate with the hem of his clothes.

Ten feet away from the ice gate, in the shade of the trees.

Ning Wuxian was sitting in a bamboo chair, holding a white porcelain bowl in his hand, eating the minced fruit pulp and the smoothie that Mei Xiang had shaved out with a knife.

"Cool!"

"Cool ......"

Yun Fei vaguely agreed, and after pulling out the flesh in the bowl, he stared at the strange master and servant who were getting closer and closer.

"Childe, someone is coming to grab the ice."

Don't blame Yunfei for misunderstanding.

It was really the crazy expression on Yu Bingbing's face, like a hungry wolf seeing a lamb, which was very terrifying.

Ning Wuxian glanced at the master and servant who was as thin as a hemp stick, and waved his hand indifferently.

"A piece of ice is two hundred catties, I moved a few pieces and it took a lot of effort, if he can grab it, he will grab it."

Yun Fei heard the words and said in his heart: That's Childe, you work hard, I can move a piece with one hand.

Based on this.

Yun Fei continued to stare at the people who seemed to be grabbing his ice, ready to take them down with an axe.

Ning Wuxian's words had just finished speaking.

Yu Bing and the little guy with him jumped straight in front of him, without any intention of stopping at all.

Seeing this, Ning Wuxian reminded helplessly: "Xiao Yunfei, don't show the murder weapon when you're idle, it's scary, pick up a stick." ”

He had already seen Boss Zhao following behind the two of them, and he also rushed over.

guessed that the person who came should be Boss Zhao's cousin, that is, the one who sold ice.

He deliberately burned the bun to set up such a pure ice gate, not only to deter Boss Zhao and the ice seller.

If the other party really endangers his big ice gate because of business competition, he doesn't mind Yun Fei knocking people out and stuffing them into the ice gate, and feel what it means to be ice and fire.

Just thinking about it.

Ran all the way to Yu Glacier in front of the ice gate and stretched out his hands.

Yun Fei squeezed the handle of the axe, and felt Childe's hot gaze, so he could only let go of the axe and bend down to pick up an arm-thick piece of waste wood.

Always ready to knock the master and servant duo unconscious.

Then.

Yu Bing's hands were about to touch the ice.

Suddenly.

He woke up and jerked his hand back.

"No, if you touch it, you'll be dirty."
