When Tang Laosan opened the gate to the yard, a large number of villagers, all strangers, were already standing at the door.

He saw the face of Village Chief Fu in the crowd and secretly exclaimed, "Come in, come in quickly."

They knew that their daughter was selling ice basins. When they saw the wooden basins and barrels in these people's hands, they immediately understood what was going on.

Each household in the two villages sent one person to buy ice. Some families needed to buy more, so more people came.

Tang Qiyue pondered for a moment. With so many demands, she wondered if there were enough materials to make ice. Because ice was made with saltpeter, saltpeter could absorb the heat in the water to form ice cubes.

But she doesn't have enough saltpeter now.

Each household needs some saltpeter for each pot.

Tang Qiyue thought that for the time being she could only use it for these people. It seemed that she had to get more saltpeter quickly, as summer would take a long time to pass.

There were too many people from the two villages. Tang Laosan and the others helped to make ice, but Tang Qiyue was still held aside and not allowed to do anything. Tang Qiyue could only watch from the side and wonder if there was anything else that could be developed in the village.

After the road is repaired, I believe there will be many people from other villages coming to Baile Village, which will then increase the village’s income and allow the villagers to set up stalls.

Even if you don't set up a stall in the village, you can go to the town to set up a stall, which can also bring in income, but it is a bit exposed to the wind and sun. But we all came from poverty, so we can do anything.

Tang Qiyue was thinking in a mess, and heard Xie Changjin's low voice asking, "What's wrong?"

"There is not enough saltpeter. I'm afraid I won't be able to sell ice anymore." Tang Qiuyue stated her first problem at this moment.

Xie Changjin held her hand and rubbed the back of her hand with his thumb. "I'll ask someone to look for it."

"You said, ice was originally used by the rich and powerful or officials, and now the villagers can use it, will I be hated?"

Although those people don't know how to sell ice, they probably have a feeling that ice is only for people of their class and others are not worthy of it.

Xie Changjin laughed, "No, they don't dare."

"People couldn't use ice before because they didn't have silver, and because no one knew that saltpeter could be used to make ice, including me."

Tang Qiyue was comforted and patted his chest, "Then the ice cream business will be handed over to Prince Jin from now on."

With Xie Changjin's reputation in the forefront, who would dare to act rashly?

Xie Changjin rubbed her hair helplessly and said, "Okay, I'll do it."

After preparing all the ice that the villagers brought by Village Chief Zhou and Village Chief Li needed, Tang Qiyue stood up and said, "My dear uncles and aunts, to be honest, we don't have much ice-making stuff left, so after the ice basins in your hands melt, you don't have to come back."

"Ah? I don't know whether this ice basin will melt quickly or slowly. What should we do if there is no more behind?" Someone screamed in fear. It was such a hot day, how could they get through without the ice basin?

Tang Qiyue smiled and said, "Originally, there aren't many things to make ice, only enough for everyone to use once. But if you need ice in the future, you can go to the town and see if there are people selling ice there."

These villagers had planned to rely on ice to survive the hottest part of the summer, but how could they accept the fact that there was no ice? They had finally spent money to sleep more comfortably at night, but who knew...

What needed to be made clear had been made clear. Tang Qiyue entered the main hall, while Village Chief Fu led the people from the two villages out. He said softly, "Qiyue girl, what you said is just to tell you that there is ice, but it is not sold in the village, but in the town. If you need it, you can go to the town to buy it."

Everyone suddenly realized what was going on and nodded with a smile, "I see, I see."

When walking from Tangjia to the village entrance, it is inevitable to see villagers who are repairing the road. Village Chief Zhou was so envious that he couldn't help but say, "Old Fu, you are so lucky!"

"The villagers in your village, who were weak before, are now very motivated and have even started to build roads. I'm afraid that before long, your Baile Village will become the richest of the nearby villages."

Village Chief Fu, whose beard almost stood up from the praise, quickly coughed and said, "I also benefited from July girl. She is a good person. When they first settled in the village, I almost got chased away. Fortunately, I was smart at that time."

Village Chief Li rolled his eyes at Village Chief Fu who was taking advantage of the situation and snorted, "You, I don't know what good things you did in your previous life, but you have gotten all the good things in this life. I'm so jealous."

Village chief Fu laughed heartily, his old face full of wrinkles. After sending the people from the two villages out of the village, he hurried to help repair the road. He could not do heavy work, but he could do other things.

After handing over all the tasks of finding saltpeter and selling ice to Xie Changjin, Tang Qiyue became idle again. The main reason was that she could only eat half a popsicle, a bowl of smoothie, and some fruits like grapes every day.

Occasionally, she accompanies Zhaobao to learn to read and practice calligraphy. This little kid couldn't even hold the brush steadily at the beginning, but now he can write simple characters. Although his handwriting looks like a dog crawling, Tang Qiyue thinks it is very good.

Xie Mingzhu refused to leave and procrastinated for ten days. Xie Changjin was in charge of the ice cream business in the town and had ignored her during this period. The arrogant princess also deliberately avoided him, and it actually took so long.

When Tang Qiyue found out, she laughed for a long time. She was also pinned down and severely bullied by the angry Xie Changjin, so that she had to take down her hair in the middle of summer to cover certain things.

"You bastard!" Tang Qiuyue looked at the mark behind her ear in the mirror and threw the wooden comb in her hand in embarrassment.

Suddenly, a warm embrace came from behind, "Scold me?"

Tang Qiyue was startled and subconsciously hid in front of the dressing mirror, but she didn't expect that a big hand was holding her waist, preventing her from dodging.

Xie Changjin's big hand touched her lower abdomen, which had a slight curve but not obvious. He gently stroked it again and again.

"What are you doing?" Tang Qiyue felt a little itchy from being touched, so she held down his big hand, turned her head and glared at him, "Don't touch me."

Xie Changjin chuckled, "Tell me, why did you scold me just now?"

Speaking of this, Tang Qiyue hurriedly pulled aside the hair on her neck and pointed at it for him to see, "I told you not to do this, but you insisted on doing it. How can I go out now?"

The marks were very obvious. Tang Qiyue's lips were slightly pouted, with a look of dissatisfaction on her face.

Xie Changjin lowered his head to look at the mark he couldn't help leaving, then leaned forward to kiss her again, admitting his mistake very quickly, "My fault, my fault."
