Yipin County Magistrate: Start with invincibility

Chapter 99 Meeting the Beauty in the Chunxiang Building
Qin Feng has no impression of the Su family.

Wan Kunming spoke eloquently, introducing what he knew about the Su family.

"Although the Su family belongs to a wealthy businessman, they have never been involved with other gentry in Ninghai County, and they have a very good reputation among the people. For many years, they have not had any conflicts or disputes with the people in Ninghai County."

"Over the years, Su's restaurants have opened all over the counties of Dengzhou, earning a lot of money. Don't say whether he is willing to borrow, at least he has money in his hand."

"I heard a few days ago that Su Jin, the current person in charge of the Su family, just happened to return to Ninghai County. These days, he is either in the Su Mansion or in the Chunxiang Building. You can ask her to try..."

Wan Kunming suggested.

Qin Feng nodded after listening to Wan Kunming's description.

He doesn't have a deep impression of the Su family in his mind, but only remembers the memory of the original owner. The Su family seemed to have come to the Yamen to apply for a piece of land to expand the Chunxiang Building. The Su family not only refused to give it, but even the expansion. Pulled down.

Qin Feng remembers that in the Jiawu period, the asking price was not too much, 2000 taels of silver, for a wealthy businessman like the Su family, it should be a little money peeping through the cracks.

But for such a small amount of money, the Su family directly gave up the expansion plan.

Are they short of money?Definitely not missing.

There is only one explanation for such a result. The Su family has a temper and does not want to bribe officials.

From this point of view, this Su family is really a clean stream.

In addition, the news of the locust plague was also released by the Su family. Qin Feng pondered for a while, and he really could go to the Su family to see if he could borrow money.

It was almost noon, and Qin Feng was also hungry.

Qin Feng simply went to Wan Kunming and went straight to Chunxiang Building.

"Hey! Isn't this Mr. Qin? Come on, please come inside! Mr. Qin's visit to our shop really makes the shop flourish!"

"Come here! Take Lord Qin upstairs and serve him in the private room."

The shopkeeper was very enthusiastic. When he saw Qin Feng, he came out to greet him and took Qin Feng inside.

Qin Feng nodded politely, and went upstairs without saying anything.

The weather is bad today with no wind.

Although there is no scorching sun in the room, the hot air from outside pours in, making the small private room in Chunxiang Building look like a steamer.

It made Qin Feng feel uncomfortable, and the clothes inside were already soaked with sweat.

"It's so hot... Who the hell can stand this day?"

Wan Kunming laughed, and said to Qin Feng: "Master Qin, don't worry, the fan you conceived is probably very good. When we go back today, let's think about the details and build one early. It will be a joy to travel." People carry it."

Qin Feng smiled faintly and nodded reluctantly.

He drew pictures today because he wanted to create a fan.

There was no electricity in ancient times. He thought that the whole manpower is just some details, which have not been designed yet.

But even if the fan is really made, he has nothing to be happy about.

On such a hot day, the air blown by the human fan is also hot air, which is not as comfortable as the air conditioner in the future world.

While complaining in his heart, two guys from Chunxiang Building brought two large basins of ice cubes into the room, and Qin Feng's eyes were straightened.

"Where did this ice... come from?"

The man looked at the ice cubes, looked at the magistrate, and said with a smile: "My lord is joking, this ice is naturally taken from the ice cellar."

Qin Feng suddenly remembered that he had seen ice cellars in books.

The ancients were not stupid, they would find ways to cool off when it was hot in summer.

In his world, such things as ice cellars existed as early as the Tang and Song Dynasties, divided into government-run and private-run.

Usually in winter, huge ice cubes are dug out of the lake, picked up by special iron tools, carried to the car, and transported to the dug ice cellar for storage.

When it's summer, open the ice cellar and collect some silver for people to use.

Some ice cellars are also used to store perishable things, which are equivalent to refrigerators.

Qin Feng knows this.

It's just that after Qin Feng traveled, he forgot about it, and the people around him didn't see anyone using it, so they ignored it.

"Ice cellar? Now...is there an ice cellar? Where is the ice cellar? What is the price for getting ice?"

As soon as these two big basins of ice were put into the house, Qin Feng immediately felt his surroundings became much cooler. This feeling was so wonderful, he had to find out clearly, and later ordered someone to buy some ice to cool off the heat.

The guy said with a smile: "We don't have an ice cellar in Ninghai County. This ice is shipped from Laiyang County. It is very precious. Only a noble person like you, Mr. Qin, is willing to use it."

"As for the price of picking up ice, people of our status don't know. If you want to know, you can ask the shopkeeper."

Qin Feng nodded, and said to the buddy: "Understood. Go and call your shopkeeper."

"Yes!"

After a while, the shopkeeper came, nodded and bowed to Qin Feng: "My lord, I heard from the guy, do you want to inquire about the ice price?"

"Ah."

"I'm really sorry, this villain doesn't know the price of ice. Over the years, our boss, Miss Su, ordered someone to bring the ice cubes. The villain just stores and uses them."

"Oh, that's just right, just call your Miss Su, I want her to answer in person."

Qin Feng said.

The county magistrate wanted to see the boss, but the shopkeeper had nothing to say, so he could only do so.

……

Su House, Su Jin frowned after listening to the shopkeeper's narration: "Then Qin Feng, asked me to go there just for the price of ice?"

"Reporting to Missy, yes."

Su Jin sighed in disappointment: "It's ridiculous. I really thought that Qin Feng had changed his temper. He was still as inactive as before. The locust plague was approaching, and he didn't think about how to control the locusts, but he was still in the mood to treat guests to Chunxianglou , and still want to ask about the price of ice! Sigh..."

"You go back and tell him. The price of ice is five taels of silver a piece, three feet square. The price of ice will rise in the heat of summer. When it is the most expensive, you may not be able to buy it for 10 taels. After the heat of summer, the price of ice will drop. There are two in Laiyang. Bingjiao, Boss Nanchengwang's business is more reasonable."

Su Jin was very detailed.

But it's not that she gave Qin Feng more face and valued him more.

It's just that I don't want to have too much to do with Qin Feng, so I should make it clear once to avoid trouble.

Hearing the words, the shopkeeper said with some embarrassment: "But miss, Master Qin originally said that you should go there in person... this..."

"Doesn't he just want to know the price of ice? Why do you want me to go there? You should go back to him. I have a lot of things to do, and I don't have time to pay attention to idle officials who only know how to eat and drink all day long."

Su Jin's face was slightly sullen, and the shopkeeper didn't dare to say anything when he saw it, so he quickly backed away with his head down.

"It seems that the county magistrate can't be counted on." Su Jin secretly sighed.

The shopkeeper returned to Chunxiang Building and introduced the price of ice to Qin Feng in detail.

But Qin Feng didn't just ask about the price of ice.He came here today to borrow money.

"Didn't I ask you to invite your boss here? Why didn't your eldest lady come? Could it be that I'm not qualified to invite her here as an official?"

"Lord Qin, calm down. Miss, she...she was a little busy, thinking that the lord just wanted to ask about the price of ice anyway, so she asked the villain to pass on the message. The entire Su family has absolutely no disrespect to you, my lord. Please, my lord, Don't blame it."

The shopkeeper was short and explained to Qin Feng.

Qin Feng sighed softly: "Forget it, I didn't make it clear. You go again and say that the officer is looking for her, Miss Su, not only to inquire about the price of ice, but also for something important, so you must invite her here .”

"This... well, please wait a moment, my lord, and I will invite you right now, my villain."

The shopkeeper ran again, and Su Jin felt a little worried after hearing what he said.

What can Qin Feng do to find her?
Could it be that he remembered that he was the one who kicked him back then?
