Crossing Wu Dalang starts from selling cakes

Chapter 383 Is there ice in summer?
Ice cubes are a great thing!

Can make people feel cool.

If you are adding something hot, it will be two heavens!

Wu Zhi's eyes lit up, and he turned to look at Pan Jinlian next to him...

Wu Zhi's method refreshed her three views.

Wu Zhi is also very happy these days.

But this day, Wu Zhi thought about it, since he made the ice cubes, it's easy to say.

You can make another fortune.

Isn't it hot in summer?

Wu Zhi first asked the people in the Commerce Department to provide materials to make a large amount of ice according to his method, and then put forward his own ideas in the court.

And brought out a box of ice cubes.

Song Huizong: "King Yan, what's in your box?"

When everyone saw Wu Zhi coming up with things, they didn't quite understand.

Wu Zhi smiled and said: "Your Majesty, this is the ice made by Wei Chen!"

"In this scorching summer, the weather must be very hot. Apart from watermelon, the only thing to relieve the heat is ice cubes. Everyone can take a look!"

Wu Zhi laughed.

Cai Jing: "Aren't ice cubes only available in winter? How can there be ice cubes in this hot weather? King Yan, what are really ice cubes in this box?"

Cai Jing came up to look curiously. After opening the box, he really saw a pile of ice cubes inside. He took a piece in his hand, and his hand became very cold immediately, and his face changed drastically: "This...how can there be ice cubes in summer?"

"Is there really ice?" Wang Fu and others also came to see.

At this moment, Emperor Huizong of Song Dynasty also came over to take a look, with incredible eyes in his eyes: "King Yan, how did you make it? Isn't ice only available in winter? What's going on?"

"Your Majesty, ice cubes are indeed only available in winter, but they can also be made! This is the ice cube made by Wei Chen!"

As Wu Zhi's words spread to the audience, all the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty felt very miraculous.

And Song Huizong seemed to have guessed what Wu Zhi meant.

Song Huizong said with a smile: "The king of Yan brought these ice cubes, could it be..."

"Your Majesty!" Wu Zhi said with a smile, "Didn't we sell watermelons last time? This time, I'm going to send a batch of ice cubes to the ministers present to cool them down!"

Everyone thought that Wu Zhi was going to blackmail them for money, but when they heard this, everyone in the audience was excited.

"King Yan, are you serious?"

"nature!"

"That's great, hahaha!"

Many ministers laughed.

Song Huizong held the ice cubes in his hands: "If you have this thing in summer, you can cool down. King Yan will benefit all ministers! But are there so many ice cubes?"

Wu Zhi: "Your Majesty, ice cubes can be mass-produced. The minister is already producing the first batch. When the time comes, send a box to all the courtiers present!"

Many courtiers were very happy.

"The king of Yan has a heart!"

"That's right, it's very hot right now, it's really better to have ice cubes to cool down!"

While everyone was talking, Cai Jing frowned, secretly thinking that King Yan is not a kind person, is he really so kind?

And next.

Of course Wu Zhi was not joking.

The ice factory he established in the Commerce Department is already relatively small and large-scale. After all, as long as there are materials for this thing, it is not complicated.

So soon, boxes of ice cubes were produced and delivered to the residences of the courtiers.

Proper home delivery.

Many courtiers were shocked.

Really such a good thing?

What did King Yan think?
They were so miserable before, could it be that conscience finds out now?
Even Cai Jing couldn't figure it out!
But let alone, this ice cube is really fragrant!
Some courtiers were very hot in the courtyard, but after having ice cubes, it was chilly next to them, especially if they were placed in the room, it was even less hot and dry when they slept at night.

It's just that the ice cubes don't last very long.

Only for one day.

"I finally had a good night's sleep!" Some courtiers woke up in the morning and saw that there was only a little bit of ice left, and secretly shook their heads, feeling that it is a good thing to have ice in summer!
This King Yan is indeed powerful, can this be done?That's amazing, how did his brain grow?

Why does it feel like this guy is like a god, he can do everything?

Cai Jing also felt more comfortable.

The same is true of Song Huizong.

Next to Song Huizong's couch were three large boxes containing ice cubes, and even these boxes were produced by Wu Zhi.

It did lower the temperature in the room a lot.

Not to mention Wu Zhifu.

There are ice cubes in every room so that his wife and concubines can get a good night's sleep every night.

Not only that, Wu Zhi also made mosquito coils.

Ok.

You heard that right.

It is mosquito coils.

He has been tinkering with these things for the past few days, and he actually made the mosquito coil, lit it in the room, and the mosquitoes were much less.

This is another new project.

Why did Wu Zhi do this?It's because Wu Zhi wants to change the quality of life of the people of Song Dynasty besides making money.

It can also be regarded as benefiting the people.

In one, it's still relatively fulfilling.

Not to mention anything else, he is much more comfortable by himself.

Ice cubes can also cool him down.

You can also play new tricks.

Isn't it fragrant?
For example, Wu Zhi accidentally put a small ice cube into Li Shishi's body these days.

Good guy, Master Li just felt trembling all over, screaming like ghosts and wolves, because it was too cold.

Fortunately, it was a small piece, which slowly melted away under the intense high-speed contact, making Li Shishi cry.

Because it feels so amazing!

this day.

Wu Zhi also told Song Huizong this method.

The back garden of Yanfu Palace.

After Song Huizong heard it, his eyes couldn't help exuding a strange and excited look: "Brother Wu, can you really play like this?"

"Of course!"

Wu Zhi nodded.

Song Huizong seemed to be interested.According to Wu Zhi's method, let Empress Xiansu follow suit.

Song Huizong: "King Yan, wonderful!"

Wu Zhi smiled and communicated with Song Huizong for a while.

At this time Song Huizong asked again: "By the way, King Yan, you made so many ice cubes, and you really gave them to those ministers? What is the purpose of this?"

Wu Zhi: "Your Majesty, the last time we joined forces to sell watermelons, didn't we cheat them once?"

"It's okay this time, why not?" Song Huizong asked.

Wu Zhi: "Your Majesty, if we are still like this this time, then it would be a bit too greedy! There is still a limit to some things, after all, they have just cheated them twice!"

"The reason why Weichen did this is also to cheat them, but this time the method is different!"

Wu Zhi explained with a smile: "Think about it, Your Majesty, if we force them to buy this time, they will probably not be willing, and it may cause official anger, so I will send them a batch first, and wait for them to buy it." Knowing the benefits of ice cubes, you will naturally come to me to buy them!"

Song Huizong smiled: "Unexpectedly, this is a trick that King Yan used! How much are you going to sell this time?"

Wu Zhi: "One box of ice cubes, 70 taels!"

Song Huizong: "Will this be too cheap? Our watermelons cost twenty gold a piece before!"

Wu Zhi nodded: "Watermelon was a rare thing before, too few, and the follow-up watermelon has not been produced yet, but this ice cube can actually be mass-produced in a short period of time, and it is a fast-consuming item. It can be used up this summer. If one day With a box of 70 taels, it’s close to more than 5000 taels in two months, but it’s okay!”

"Your Majesty, the manpower and material resources used to produce ice cubes are all from the Department of Commerce, so this is all money returned to the treasury."

Hearing Wu Zhi's words, Song Huizong was a little moved: "King Yan, you have worked hard to make money for the Song Dynasty. I am really touched. You made these things, and you can take the money yourself."

Song Huizong wanted to give the money to Wu Zhi himself, and Wu Zhi said with a smile: "Your Majesty, I am not short of money, all of this is for the Song Dynasty, and the ice cubes are also going to be popularized and become the new sales of the Song Dynasty. Cargo!"

Song Huizong's eyes lit up: "You want to sell the whole Song Dynasty?"
