Chapter 356： consumes a lot

Chapter 356 Exhausted

Xue Sihu didn't have any reason to have a sour nose, but smiled at Liu Guixia and the others: "Mother, eldest brother, eldest sister-in-law, second sister-in-law, no matter whether this ice can be made or not, I will make my family richer and richer."

"If that's the case, of course it's fine," Liu Guixia and the others said with a smile, "but if it's not, it's fine. Our family's life is already very good, isn't there a business of rice noodles and Liangpi? With these four hundred taels of cash, in fact, we still have more than one hundred taels in our family, so we can’t live any better.”

When Xue Dafu, Xue Erhu, Xue Sanhu, and Xue Wuhu finished work and came back from the mountain, when they heard about this, they all agreed with Liu Guixia and the others.

However, what surprised Jiang Yue was that Xue Sanhu, who basically did not speak much, was the first to express his opinion when the four returned together.

"Let Sihu and the others do it." After Xue Sanhu said this indifferently, he took down the axe hanging from the shed and started to help the family chop wood.

Because of making rice noodles recently, the firewood at home is consumed a lot.

The next day, Xue Sihu took four hundred taels of silver from Liu Guixia to Old Doctor Shen.

If this person hadn't been trusted, Xue Sihu would not have given the money so fast. After all, he hadn't seen the saltpeter yet.

And his Xiaoyan trusted the old doctor Shen, and told the old doctor that saltpeter might be able to make ice, and if he believed his Xiaoyan, then he naturally believed in the old doctor Shen.

Besides, the old doctor Shen usually helped their family a lot, and he didn't want to delay in paying the money back.

The money was given, and the old doctor Shen also promised to help get the saltpeter yesterday, so now the only thing left is to wait for the old Shen to help get 200 catties of saltpeter.

During the period of and so on, Xue Sihu went to town to sell cold rice noodles and rice noodles as usual, but the number of bowls sold became less and less, and he could sell fifty bowls a day.

That family made rice noodles a lot less than what they used to do every day.

Xue Yihu naturally had a lot of free time.

But Xue Yihu couldn't be idle either. I heard that a wooden basin will be used to make ice. If it is truly made, it will definitely require a lot of wooden basins. There are not enough wooden basins at home. It happened that Xue Yan painted it for him. The booklet shows how the tub is made, and the structure is drawn in great detail. He can just do it directly. He plans to make several large tubs and small tubs.

Because the booklet that Xue Yan drew for him has not been finished yet, and he will draw a lot of things for him. After he finished reading it, he sent the booklet back to Xue Yan's desk like a treasure, and then he began to prepare tub stuff.

On this day, because the weather was very hot in the morning, Xue Sihu did not take Xue Yan and Jiang Yue to town because they were afraid that Xue Yan and Jiang Yue would not be able to bear it.

Jiang Yue walked under the shed where Xue Yihu was making things. Xue Yihu was still making a wooden basin, but Xue Yihu had already made a wooden basin, but it was a small wooden basin.

Xue Yihu's craftsmanship is getting better and better, and the small wooden basin is also particularly strong and smooth.

Jiang Yue thought that it was all about making ice, how could she not make popsicles, and making popsicles requires molds. It’s really hard to make molds here, but it’s not impossible.

You can use the kind of bamboo tube that is neither thick nor thin, and ten bamboo tubes of about the same thickness can be tied together to form a bundle. When the ice is made, the small basin is not placed, but this bundle of bamboo tubes is put in each. Each bamboo tube must be filled with liquid that makes popsicles 80% full, and then a popsicle stick is inserted into each bamboo tube. Once it freezes, the liquid popsicle in the bamboo tube will become a solid popsicle.
