Chapter 377 Summer Ice is as Precious as Oil
Hearing the mockery in his tone, Chu Jinzhou
He didn't get angry and quickly went to the kitchen to bring out a glass of lemonade.
"Uncle, this is our lemonade, remember to pay for it later."
The man nodded, and a look of surprise appeared on his face the moment his hand touched the cup. However, because the wooden cup conducts heat slowly, although it felt cool to the touch, it was not too exaggerated.
He picked up the cup and took a sip.
As soon as he drank the cold lemonade, his eyes trembled violently.
He seemed to have drunk a little bit of crushed ice!
This cool feeling wraps around the tongue, making the whole body feel cooled down.
He looked down at the glass of lemonade in disbelief; it actually contained ice!
The kid didn't lie to him at all!
His breath hitched and he took a second sip.
The iced lemonade tasted so good that he didn't know how to describe it. He just felt that it seemed better than all the drinks in the restaurant!
In a short while, he finished the glass of lemonade.
Finally, looking at the lemon at the bottom of the cup, he tasted it curiously, and instantly, a sour taste bloomed on the tip of his tongue.
Although the sour taste had melted into the water and had almost disappeared, it still made him feel very sour.
He stopped eating.
"Little Boss! Give me another drink quickly!"
Chu Jinzhou raised the corner of his mouth and immediately brought him a cup.
Before the food even arrived, the man gulped down two glasses of lemonade.
"Little Boss, another drink!"
This is lemonade with ice! When has he ever eaten ice in the summer?
And the price is so cheap! The man just feels that he has made a big profit!
Chu Jinzhou didn't serve him this time, "Uncle, your dish will be ready soon, don't drink any more, you'll be full soon."
The man clicked his tongue, thinking about it, "Little Master, your water is really ice cold. Where did you get the ice?"
Chu Jinzhou: "I saved it in the winter."
The man was stunned for a moment. He heard that ice was difficult to store, and even if it was stored, there probably wouldn't be much.
Maybe today is the only day I can drink such delicious lemonade.
After a while, all the food was served, and the man still ordered another cup.
Eating delicious meals and drinking cool lemonade, he had never felt so comfortable eating in summer.
Not long after, many customers came to the store again.
Chu Jinzhou and the other three kids walked around promoting their products.
The guests still have a lot of trust in their restaurant, after all, they are regular customers.
Most people would order one.
In fact, I didn't hold out much hope. I just thought these little guys must be exaggerating.
But when everyone drank the ice lemon water and took a walk outside, the heat on their bodies instantly cooled down.
Everyone was boiling with excitement!
"Little boss! I want another cup!"
"Little Master, is this the only lemonade you have at home? If you have ice, can I add it to the wine? I want to drink!"
"Little Boss, I want three cups!"
The little ones were confused after hearing this.
"Quiet, quiet!" Chu Jinzhou roared, and everyone gradually quieted down.
Chu Jinzhou: "In addition to lemonade, we also have cherry juice! If you want to drink, you can also add ice!"
"Then I want to..."
"I want cherry juice..."
Everyone was talking at once, and Chu Jinnian was quickly memorizing everyone's orders.
After a while, all the juices and drinks were served.
Cherry juice has a beautiful color, is sweet and refreshing, and many women like it.
After adding ice to the cherry wine and peach wine, the men drank it to their heart's content!
The whole restaurant was filled with enthusiasm.
Just because of the addition of a few iced drinks, the restaurant's profit today increased a lot.
In just one morning, I earned twice as much money as usual.
The guys were secretly shocked.
But until now, they are still stunned.
They never expected that they would actually see ice in the summer!
When they saw the amount of ice the host brought over, they could hardly believe their eyes.
After lunch, there were fewer customers in the shop.
Chu Xiao cooked a few dishes for everyone as lunch.
Shen Zhi: "What do you all want to drink? Juice or lemonade?"
The guys looked at each other and said, this is made with ice, can they drink it too?
"Hurry up and talk! Don't you want to drink?"
"Drink! I...I want lemonade!"
"I want cherry juice!"
Everyone held a glass of ice drink and ate the delicious food, feeling that such a happy day was like being in heaven.
Halfway through the meal, Qin Jiuan arrived.
"Jiuan, why are you here? Aren't we supposed to have a day off today?" Chu Changfeng asked.
Qin Jiuan: "I had nothing to do at home, and today I found that you were not at home, so I came to see you."
"Hurry up and sit down. Have you eaten yet?"
"Ate."
Shen Zhi looked suspicious, "What did you eat? Isn't it just rice soaked in water again?"
If Qin Jiuan eats at home alone, he can eat whatever he wants.
As if he had been guessed, Qin Jiuan looked a little embarrassed, "It's just to fill my stomach."
Shen Zhi: "Niannian, go get the bowls and chopsticks for your ninth brother."
"Uh-huh!"
I have already brought the little guy a bowl and chopsticks, and also brought him a glass of cherry juice.
Qin Jiuan: "Is this what we added today? Made from cherries?"
Chu Jinnian: "Brother Jiu, try drinking it."
Qin Jiuan took a sip out of curiosity, and after that, he was stunned.
He stared at everyone in disbelief, "Is this ice?!"
"uh-huh!"
"That's right!"
Qin Jiuan took another big sip, with a little bit of ice still in his mouth.
"Where did this come from?" He quickly calmed down.
Shen Zhi: "I saved it during the winter."
Qin Jiuan: "Then...how much do you sell a cup like this for?"
"Five cents!" Chu Jinnian stretched out his little hand, his expression proud and excited.
The corners of Qin Jiuan's mouth twitched fiercely, "Five... five coins?!"
He was so angry that he almost died!
"Do you know how expensive ice is? A cup like this costs at least ten cents!"
In fact, if it were in the Central Plains, a drink with ice would cost at least twenty cents.
Otherwise, why do we say ice is as expensive as oil in summer?
"Ten... ten cents?"
Chu Jinnian scratched his head. "But this is too expensive. It's as expensive as our wine..."
"Five cents is not cheap anymore." Shen Zhi said.
Qin Jiuan was so disappointed that he said, "But this is ice! Summer ice!"
Chu Changfeng chuckled, "Okay, it's just a little ice, don't get so excited."
Qin Jiuan couldn't catch his breath. What does just a little ice mean?
You have to know that when his family was still wealthy, it was not easy for him to drink a bowl of cold soup in the summer.
It’s not that I don’t have money, it’s just that I have too little!
Apart from their family, not many people in the entire county store ice.
Once, another wealthy man in the county came to their house and bought a wooden basin of ice, which cost him 50 taels of silver!
