"What did you say? What about ice?"
Gu Jin was confused.
Liu Zheng laughed heartily.
Thinking about it, I haven't eaten ice cream for a long time. Not to mention ice cream, I can't even eat popsicles.
I miss you so much...
"What are you going to do?"
Gu Jin was so angry when she saw Liu Zheng's smile!
How long has this been, and you can still laugh!
hateful!
The Christmas party is tomorrow! Do you really think that if you win the war, no one will care about this ceremony?
Too……
This guy looks quite handsome, but he is a war madman! War maniac! Gu Jin grew up well-fed and pampered, but she was an anti-war element! I thought Liu Zheng would not deal with him, but now I hate him even more.
Liu Zheng chuckled: "I told you, I want to make ice. Congratulations, Miss Gu, you will be the first person in the Dragon Flame Dynasty to eat ice cream."
"close the door!"
Liu Zheng suddenly shouted.
Bang, bang, bang.
The men of the Liangzhou Army once again locked the door of the quarry tightly! Gu Jin was shocked when he saw it, and his face turned pale: "You, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, get, you, you, you,,,,,,,,, you,,"—"??
"He's going to run away and kill people and silence them!"
Liu Zheng didn't bother to pay attention to her at all.
He waved his hand.
Soon, several Liangzhou soldiers brought over a portion of large and small pots. First they put the big basin on the ground, and then they put the small basin inside the big basin. Then put a large amount of raw saltpeter in a large basin.
Gu Jin watched eagerly.
Deng Wenhui's eyes widened as well.
The government officials also watched one by one.
Making ice?
How to make it?
These days, they have been collecting saltpeter here and buying pots and barrels, but they just don't know how to make ice. At this time, Liu Zhizhou was finally going to put it into practice. How could they not be curious?
Liu Zheng looked at the proportion of saltpeter in the big basin, nodded, and then ordered a few Liangzhou soldiers to pour the water upside down in the basin.
This is the famous saltpeter ice making.
What is saltpeter? The chemical name is sodium nitrate. When it dissolves in water, it absorbs heat, lowering the temperature of the water, causing the water in the small basin to cool down quickly and form frost.
And saltpeter was not difficult to find in ancient times.
Whenever the air is crisp in autumn, saltpeter usually takes the form of crusts or salt flowers and covers the corners of the ground, which is the so-called ground frost. Sweep up the nitrate-containing soil, place it in a bucket, add water to soak it, filter it, and then boil or dry the filtrate to obtain saltpeter crystals. Of course, there is another most convenient way, which is raw saltpeter. In ancient times, it was originally a medicinal material and could be bought in pharmacies.
This is why Liu Zheng has been staying in the quarry these days. On the one hand, he asked Deng Wenhui to purchase raw saltpeter in the drugstore. On the other hand, he asked people to collect a large amount of saltpeter in the quarry.
"Hahahaha, is that it?"
Gu Jin couldn't help laughing when she saw what Liu Zheng did.
The government officials who were forcibly brought to help couldn't help but cover their mouths and suppress their laughter.
That's it?
Busy here and there, treating them like donkeys, and this is the result?
Liu Zheng patted his forehead: "I almost forgot!"
He quickly poured the watermelon juice he had prepared into the small basin.
Everyone in the audience laughed loudly when they saw his mysterious operation.
However.
soon.
They stopped laughing.
The first person whose laughter stopped abruptly was Gu Jin.
It has been unbearably hot in Beijing these days. Therefore, any slight drop in temperature around you at this time will be felt very obviously. What surprised Gu Jin was that there was a hint of coolness coming from the direction of the basin Liu Zhizhou had made.
Her laughter stopped.
Deng Wenhui also started to be stunned.
The government officials who were waiting to see the joke were also dumbfounded.
It’s cold!
It's getting colder!
The scene suddenly fell silent.
Everyone was staring closely at the basin.
A chill came over me.
I don’t know how long it will take.
"ah!"
Suddenly Gu Jin screamed and couldn't help but cover her mouth.
What did she see?
She saw that the water in the small basin turned from water to frost floating on it almost at a speed visible to the naked eye. However, from frost, it slowly began to turn into ice cubes...
"This, this, this..."
"Oh My God!"
"This? This is an ice cube! This is an ice cube!"
These people looked stupid and crazy.
Gu Jin ran over in disbelief and touched the ice cubes in the small basin with her hand. As soon as her delicate hand touched it, she retracted it.
ice!
Incredible ice!
boom!
Gu Jin, who had never been optimistic about Liu Zheng, suddenly felt like a thunderbolt.
Deng Wenhui was also so shocked that he couldn't even breathe.
this……
Was it really made? He couldn't help but lick his tongue. You know, in the Longyan Dynasty, those who can use and eat ice in summer are the royal family and the aristocratic class. Because it’s too expensive and too luxurious!
Not only that.
They have probably never seen this kind of ice in front of them in their lives! Because the ice cubes were mixed with watermelon juice, the white inside was red and the red inside was white, which greatly increased people's appetite.
"Miss Gu, how are you?"
Liu Zheng laughed.
Gu Jin swallowed a mouthful of saliva and couldn't say a word.
"Eat it!"
Liu Zheng held back his laughter and waved his hand.
Gu Jin screamed, ran over as fast as he could, smashed the ice cube open, and put it in his mouth without saying a word. A sweet and cold taste entered her mouth, and she was immediately made to have one Buddha born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven.
tasty!
too delicious!
Ahhhhh!
Is this the ice cream?
How can it be so delicious!
"Hey, leave some for me!"
Seeing Gu Jin feasting over there, Liu Zheng became anxious, let alone the others.
"Don't touch me, don't touch me! I'm in a hurry with anyone who touches it!"
Gu Jin hugged the watermelon-colored ice cube and ran away quickly.
Only a group of people were left, messy under the bright sun.
…
"Liu Zhizhou, Liu Zhizhou..."
The eldest princess of Li Dynasty, Li Hyuna, sat quietly by the window and kept mumbling this name.
Because in the past few days when she came to Jinghua, this person's name was the one she heard the most.
She is a senior researcher of Longyan culture, so she naturally knows that this official position is not very high in Longyan. In this capital city, even a brick can knock out a governor.
but……
Is he actually that strong?
What shocked her even more was the news of war breaking out yesterday.
Liangzhou Army...
Liangzhou Army!
The invincible Liangzhou Army!
This made her hand holding the teacup tremble a little.
If there was such a powerful army to help the Li Dynasty, would they still be afraid of the hateful Japanese pirates?
no!
No matter what the cost, she must get to know Liu Zhizhou!
In what way?
The program of the ceremony!
right!
"Gather the dancers and let's rehearse again!"
"Yes, princess!"
