Cannon's little husband

Shopkeeper Qi acted very quickly. It was originally agreed that the store would be emptied within half a month, but Shopkeeper Qi only took ten days to deal with it.

Therefore, Lian Qi and Ming Jun were just pushing a small cart and selling crushed ice outside for four days.

By the fifth day, they had already moved into the new shop.

The original plaque of Xingqing Pastry has been removed, and Lian Qi thought about it but couldn’t think of any good name for the store. He simply called it Copper Pot Broken Ice, because there are too many people who come to buy crushed ice every day, and Lian Qi really Because he couldn't spare time to redecorate this shop, he could only make do with the original furnishings first.

Speaking of which, the shop he rented was originally intended to open a hot pot restaurant.

However, this hot pot restaurant is not so easy to open.

First of all, a large number of copper pots need to be made first, which is not a problem. Tang Wuyu has already helped to make about [-] of them when he is free.

Secondly, what needs to be paid attention to and solved is the purchase channel, meat, eggs, vegetables... Who should I buy from?Which one is fresher?And how much goods can be purchased every day to meet the needs without causing too much waste?

Then there are various labor costs such as vegetable cutters, side dish workers, waiters, soup base cookers, pot washers, etc.And the person invited must be trustworthy, otherwise one day they research a new dipping material, and it will be leaked by others, how can they mess around?

Oh, by the way, we have to constantly innovate and research new soup bases, dipping sauces and the like.

It is not too easy to imitate this hot pot.

In addition, how to deal with the leftovers every day?

How to keep meat, which is perishable and perishable, fresh?

All of these are problems, and they are all problems that cannot be solved in a short time.

Originally, Lian Qi thought that before he actually opened a hot pot restaurant, he must have been investing money in it.

However, even he didn't expect that ice making would be so profitable, it can be said to be huge profits!

After moving into a new shop, he also expanded the scale of ice production accordingly, but the supply was still in short supply.

Therefore, in order to maintain their livelihood, they had to extract saltpeter overnight, and then divide the saltpeter into several parts to make ice in turn.

Originally, he set the price of [-] Wen because he thought that this price is considered medium in Qiaoyang Street, and there will always be a few prodigals who will come to try something new, but unexpectedly, many of them are not People from rich households actually come to buy every day.

There were too many people, and the original design of his shop was not very reasonable, so many people couldn't find a place to sit.

In order to meet the growing demand, Lian Qi had to invent disposable utensils.

For example, he wrapped crushed ice in lotus leaves and asked the guests to take it away. For example, he specially asked someone to make a small spoon for scooping ice cream that he used in his previous life, so that the guests could eat while walking.

In addition, Ming Jun pondered for a long time, and also researched different flavors of crushed ice.

For example, some people like to eat peanuts, so he specially sprinkled peanut chips; some people like preserved fruits, so he sprinkled a small handful of preserved fruits on the outside of the milk, which looks cool and pleasing.

For another example, he also made a crushed ice filled with mixed fruit juice, which is similar to the iced fruit juice that Lian Qi drank in the beverage store in his previous life, except that he drank it from a bowl. After drinking the juice, here People who live in it will definitely eat the ice cubes.

What's more, they launched the people-friendly version, which is the old popsicle called by later generations. Add brown sugar or white sugar to clear water, and eat it directly after freezing into ice cubes. They price it at ten cents.Of course, this kind of ice cubes are just slightly sweet, after all, sugar is not cheap.

And after this kind of ice cubes were launched, they were directly sold out of stock.

After all, it is cheap, and it tastes sweet!For those who are not rich, this kind of sweet ice is much more cost-effective!

That night

After a busy day, Lian Qi leaned directly on Tang Wuyu's body and kept rubbing his arms, "Ah! I'm really exhausted!"

Tang Wuyu hugged Lian Qi into his arms, and began to massage his whole body, "It's better to have a limited supply."

"Yes, I've also been thinking about this issue recently." Lian Qi reached out and rubbed the space between her brows, "Let's continue with the limit. It really won't work if it goes on like this. We have too few people, and Ari is studying, so he can't be distracted." , I am not at ease if Aying and Ayu go to help."

The flow of people in the store is really too big, and he and Mingjun definitely won't be able to take care of the two children when they are busy. What if someone takes advantage of this opportunity to abduct the children?

After what happened last time, Lian Qi's vigilance can be said to have been greatly improved.

"It's okay to have them do it at home."

"If no one is watching, do you think Ah Yu and Ah Yao will steal it?"

Tang Wuyu fell silent, he didn't even need to think about this question, he would definitely steal it!Maybe you will eat it directly and get diarrhea.

"They are still young and have a weak stomach. It is definitely not good to eat too much ice. I don't want to take them to the doctor one day because they eat too much ice."

"why?"

"Shame!" Lian Qi covered her face, "That's what I thought. I will bring Wan Xia to help tomorrow, and let Aying stay at home and watch Ayu and Ayao. Aying, I still trust Qian. Wait until the day after tomorrow. Let Wanxia look after the child at home. For Ayu's own good, Wanxia will definitely not let him eat more."

When it comes to Lian Yu's physical problems, Wan Xia has always been steadfast.

"Yes." Tang Wuyu nodded, and had no objection to this decision.

However, what they didn't expect was that the next day, they ran into someone who came to make trouble.

※※※

Those who came were a few tough-looking men with fierce looks on their faces. They didn't say anything after they came, they just kicked the table and drove them away.

Since the take-away function was developed, most people who come to buy crushed ice will choose to take it home to eat, so there are not many people still sitting in the shop at this time.

It is also fortunate that this is the case, otherwise, it is very likely to cause casualties... death is unlikely.

And when those men threw the table over, a man ran out of a shop not far away, rushed into Lian Qi's shop, and knocked down those burly men in a few strokes.

Cough, don't get excited, the person who came was not Tang Wuyu, but...

"Qiulu?" The moment that person rushed over, Mingjun recognized him with a complex look in his eyes.

"Brother Qiu?" Lian Qi's face was also full of surprise, but his acting skills were obviously not up to par, it was too exaggerated and too fake!

But it doesn't matter, right now his back is facing Mingjun, and Mingjun can't see his expression at this time, so it's not revealing.

Ming Jun stared at Qiulu for a while, then opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she just sighed, then bent down to clean up the overturned tables and chairs.

The table was overturned, and all the crushed ice that was originally on the table fell on the ground. A lot of ice cubes that had melted were mixed with milk and jam, and it was sticky on the ground. It was even disgusting to look at. .

When Qiulu saw that Mingjun was silent, he didn't know what to say. After being at a loss for a while, he began to remove the tables, chairs and benches that blocked Mingjun's way.

"Be careful!" When Ming Jun almost stepped on the pieces of the porcelain bowl, Qiulu finally spoke out, breaking the heavy atmosphere between the two of them.

And when Ming Jun picked up the mop, Lian Qi had already pulled Wan Xia away, giving the two of them a space to get along alone and explain clearly.

Behind the shop is a small courtyard, not big, but it is still possible for a family of three to live, but it will be a little cramped.

After Lian Qi gave Wan Xia some instructions, she sent people to rest.

Although I have lived in Lian's house for several days, I also know that Lian Qi is not so difficult to serve her master, she is even quite gentle, and has never regarded herself as a slave, but Wan Xia still feels a little nervous when facing Lian Qi .

Even Wan Xia herself didn't quite understand why that tension came about.

So after Lian Qi ordered, Wan Xia immediately went to tidy up the two-story building, leaving Lian Qi alone in the yard.

※※※

"Brother, come out, I know you must be here." Lian Qi said very firmly with his hands behind his back.

After finishing speaking, Lian Qi silently counted three times in her heart, then turned around.

Sure enough, Tang Wuyu was already standing behind him.

Lian Qi laughed, "I always felt like someone was spying on something from the dark. Now the person who caused trouble appeared, Brother Qiulu also appeared, but the feeling of being watched still exists, I think it must be you !"

Tang Wuyu: ...

Lian Qi stepped forward and hugged her senior brother, "Hey, senior brother, I think you are really nice now."

"Huh?" Tang Wuyu was a little puzzled.

"It's nothing." Lian Qi hugged Tang Wuyu a little tighter, "Just looking at the relationship between Ah Jun and Brother Qiu, I feel a little emotional."

Tang Wuyu seemed to understand something, he pushed Lian Qi away a little, and solemnly promised, "I will not restrict you."

"I know, thank you senior brother, I'll cook something delicious for you!" Lian Qi smiled.

But Tang Wuyu's body froze slightly, "What did you do?"

"Don't worry, it's definitely not half-baked!" Lian Qi assured.

Tang Wuyu rubbed Lian Qi's head, "As long as it is given by you, even poison | medicine, I will take it."

Lian Qi: "...Brother, I know that you are invulnerable to all poisons."

Tang Wuyu: ...

Lian Qi: "So you mean that the things I make are worse than poison | medicine?"

Tang Wuyu hurriedly remedied: "No, the poison | medicine is more difficult to eat."

"Pfft—" Looking at Tang Wuyu's paralyzed face, Lian Qi suddenly laughed, "Come with me, brother."

Lian Qi led him into a room specially made for ice making.

"Open it and have a look." Lian Qi pointed to one of the tin cans.

Tang Wuyu opened it as he said, and saw countless wooden sticks...

"This is?"

"This is a popsicle, pick it up and try it." Lian Qi encouraged Tang Wuyu.

Tang Wuyu stretched out his hand, grabbed the wooden stick in the middle, and pulled it out——

Only the stick was pulled out...

Lian Qi: ...

Tang Wuyu: ...

"Well, wait a minute, when I shovel it, the ice and the iron must be stuck together..." Lian Qi quickly explained.

Tang Wuyu reached out his hand to stop Lian Qi's movements, and pointed like a knife, slowly separating the ice cube from the iron wall.

Seeing Tang Wuyu holding the world's first old popsicle, Lian Qi smiled and said, "This is the world's first old popsicle, do you like it?"

Tang Wuyu looked at the somewhat irregular popsicle and nodded slowly, "I like it."

"Try it! See if it tastes good?" Seeing that Tang Wuyu had been holding it and refusing to eat it, Lian Qi couldn't help urging.

"Don't eat this one." After finishing speaking, Tang Wuyu put the popsicle into his backpack, and took out the second one from the tin can that was cut into a nine-square grid, and ate it up.

In less than a minute, an old popsicle was wiped out in his mouth.

"Not sweet enough." Smacking his lips, Tang Wuyu commented like this.

Lian Qi rolled her eyes, "Candy is so expensive now, if you add more, you will lose money! But—" At the end, Lian Qi changed his mind, "If you like to eat, I think Let's see if we can research ice cream."

"what is that?"

"Another sweeter and more delicious than the old popsicles."

Tang Wuyu's eyes lit up immediately, "I can help!"

"Oh? How is the senior brother going to help?"

Tang Wuyu knocked on the iron mold, "I can help you make this."

After finishing speaking, Tang Wuyu looked at the iron nine-square grid with disgust, "It's better than this."

Lian Qi couldn't help laughing, "Well, my brother is the best."

Because it was a gift for Tang Wuyu, the mold that was similar to the Jiugong grid except that the grid was smaller and deeper was made by Lian Qi and Ming Jun to find a blacksmith.

While talking, Lian Qi also picked up an old popsicle and took a bite, "If I can make bigger and smoother ice cubes in the future, I can make an ice bed, and it will be very cool to sleep on it at night. .”

"Knowledge." Tang Wuyu ruthlessly broke Lian Qi's fantasy.

Lian Qi: "... Then you can build an ice room, put a lot of ice cubes in it, and place an ice bed, so it won't melt quickly."

"It will be cold."

"Then I won't wear thick clothes?"

"The clothes will get wet."

Lian Qi: "Don! Nothing! Desire!"

"However, I like it."

"?"

Lian Qi didn't understand what it meant, she just shivered.

He only felt a cold and wet feeling on the back of his left neck.

It turned out that it was Tang Wuyu who stuck an ice cube to the light red mark on the back of his neck.

Although there is not much difference between the brother and the man in appearance, except for the fact that the brother can have children, the things that the brother shoots when he is emotional are different from the man. There are no countless small tadpoles, just a faint clear liquid.

In addition, the most obvious difference between brother and man is the red mark on the back of brother's neck.

For a brother who has not had sex with anyone, the imprint is bright red, but once he intersects with a man, the red color will fade away, and when the brother is pregnant with a child, the imprint will turn light pink.

At the same time, for most brothers, this position is their sensitive point.

Sensitive points were suddenly covered with ice cubes, the sour feeling was simply amazing!

Also because of the blockage of ice, Tang Wuyu didn't notice at this time that the color of Lian Qi's imprint was a little lighter than last time.

"Aqi, I have something to ask you to agree to."

"what?"

Tang Wuyu held a chunk of ice between his fingers, and slowly moved it down, until it stopped at his tailbone.

Tang Wuyu's intentions were almost obvious.Even
