Farming in the Mountains: Max Level Jiaojiao Is Three Years Old - Chapter 408

408 Contract

He was stunned at first. Then, he wrapped the money and documents in cloth and handed them to Xue Erfu, “Erfu, take this and give it to Mother, especially the document. You can’t lose it. In the end, we still have to settle the payment for the quilt and wooden box from that restaurant.”

“Oh, I see. Alright. Alright.” Xue Erfu was a little dizzy from the amount he had with him.

“Erfu, you don’t have to be like this. We’ll have to send two hundred and forty kilograms of ice to them every day for the next two months.” Xue Sifu laughed. The money was in his hands and he was dazed.

“True, true.” Xue Erfu felt much better and smiled.

“Did Shopkeeper Qiao tell you when he wants the ice to be delivered every day?” Xue Sifu asked Xue Yan and Jiang Yue.

Xue Yan told her family he wanted to send the ice to the Lakshmi Restaurant at this time every day. The other half would be transported by a carriage to the county. However, it was no longer their family’s business. By then, they only needed to help load the ice onto the carriage.

“That’ll save us a lot of trouble.” Xue Erfu laughed.

Xue Sifu smiled and said, “I guess Shopkeeper Qiao also wants it in the county so that the county’s restaurant can rely on ice to maintain its business in this hot weather. I heard that the county doesn’t have ice either. If it wasn’t for the limited amount of saltpeter and the fact that we have a limited amount of ice made in a day, we could have started the ice business in the county as well.”

Xue Erfu laughed.

“Let’s focus on what’s in front of us first. We’ll talk about it after we’ve built up the town. This is just the beginning.”

“People always have to dream, otherwise how can you know the beauty of achieving it?”

“I can’t win an argument against you.” Xue Erfu laughed. He didn’t want to talk to him about this anymore. “When will you be leaving?”

“Wait a little longer. It’s almost noon, I might not be able to make it.” Xue Sifu laughed. “The ice from Lakshmi Restaurant would only be delivered tomorrow. It’ll be useless to send it now, so we have to make it tomorrow. By the way, this bucket of sour plum juice is cold. Do you and Sanfu want to drink some?”

If it wasn’t for the fact that they’ve covered their cose, Xue Erfu would definitely be reluctant to drink it. Now that he had the deal and the money was in his hands, he loosened up and was more willing to drink it. He immediately laughed, “That’s good. We haven’t had iced sour plum juice yet. Xue Yan, Jiang Yue, do you guys want some too?”

“I just had a popsicle,” Jiang Yue said. “I’m not thirsty. Let Xue Yan drink it.”

Xue Yan was really thirsty, so he drank a small bowl. Sugar was added, so it wasn’t sour at all. It was cold and especially cooling, so it could relieve the summer heat.

After drinking the sour plum juice, Xue Yan wanted to go to sell more popsicles with Jiang Yue, but before he could carry the small wooden box, he saw Wufu jumping like a monkey, leading two people to the shop.

They only heard Wufu excitedly pointing at their stall and saying to the two people, “There it is. That’s the place.”

Xue Sifu also saw it and immediately asked loudly, “Wufu, are they here to eat ice?”

“Yes, yes, yes.” Xue Wufu immediately nodded. “They don’t know the place, so I brought them here.”

“Are you guys really selling ice here?” One of the two men asked before he walked over. “I wanted to buy popsicles from this young man just now, but he had sold all of them and told us that there was ice to eat here.”

“There are.” Xue Sifu immediately called out. “Not only do we have ice to eat, but we also have popsicles, iced sour plum juice, cold rice noodles, and liangpi. What do you want to eat?”
