However, because of its high price, only the nobles and a few rich people could enjoy it, just like today's Haagen-Dazs.
Only the rich could afford it.
The beautiful ice cream undoubtedly created a legend in the history of ice cream, food culture, and even the history of human civilization.
From this point of view, its significance was far beyond today's Haagen-Dazs. It was a classic fashion and a powerful performance of the splendid and long-standing Han culture.
"Fortunately, I was prepared. Donghai, is there any news from my father?”
Li Wufeng asked Li Donghai.
"Aiya, if Young Master didn't ask, this lowly one would have forgotten.”
Li Donghai slapped his head and quickly took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Li Wufeng.
After reading the letter, he saw Li Jing's reply. Let him go all out and take care of the mining of saltpeter.
"Success!"
"It's done? What is done?"
Liu Siying asked curiously.
"You will know in a while. Donghai, call a few people and leave with me.”
Li Wufeng said. Then, he led a few people directly to a mountain in the Li family's territory.
The original purpose of mining saltpeter was to refine elixirs, but these were all tricks used by ancient warlocks to deceive people. It was a waste of saltpeter's great use.
The biggest use of saltpeter was to make gunpowder. Ice-making could only be considered as its sideline.
However, making gunpowder was a dangerous thing. Li Wufeng had no plans to do so for the time being. He had to eat his food one bite at a time and take his steps one step at a time.
He would produce these things at a suitable time, and then the Great Tang would truly dominate the world.
There would be explosives and cannons!
Li Family Village!
This was the territory of Li Jing, the Duke of Wei. It was also for this reason that this place was renamed Li Family Village.
This place was more than ten miles away from Chang 'an. It was also a place that Li Wufeng had unintentionally come to this month in search of something.
However, he accidentally discovered a hill here. He heard from the locals that there was a hill nearby that could not grow food.
It immediately attracted Li Wufeng's attention, and then he discovered a huge secret.
This was actually a mountain full of saltpeter!
He was f * cking rich!
At that time, the weather was not too hot. The first thought that came to Li Wufeng's mind was that he could use this mountain to make gunpowder in the future.
However, before he could make gunpowder, he had to use the saltpeter to make ice.
For this reason, Li Wufeng had even asked Li Jing to send out dozens of prefecture soldiers to guard this place and not let anyone else enter.
He was prepared to develop this place and ask the imperial court to send more troops to guard this saltpeter mine.
But before that, he had to reap the benefits first.
He had even sent people to look for places like the Li Family Village.
China was rich in saltpeter resources.
If he didn't exploit it, he would be letting himself down.
Seeing the Third Young Master of the main family come, the Li Family Village Chief was very happy.
This mountain originally belonged to Duke Wei, Li Jing. Now that his son wanted to develop this place, it was very normal and reasonable.
Moreover, Li Wufeng had agreed to arrange mining jobs for the villagers here, and the salary was three times higher than normal.
This time, the villagers were even more in favor of it. Originally, there was so much less land to grow food, but now it seemed that this was a good thing.
Li Wufeng asked Li Donghai and his men to use an ox cart to haul a few hundred catties of saltpeter back to the manor. This would be enough for a while.
Upon returning to the residence, Li Wufeng did not have time to drink water. He had people grind the saltpeter into powder and then let the others leave the small courtyard, leaving only Shopkeeper Liu and Li Donghai behind.
"Husband, you said that you used these to make ice?”
Liu Siying asked in confusion. She saw Li Wufeng grab the white powder, which looked a little transparent.
Li Wufeng nodded. Little Cui, bring the water!"
Xiao Cui had long been attracted by Li Wufeng's words. She immediately brought over a basin of water and stared at Li Wufeng.
However, just as Li Wufeng was about to grab the saltpeter powder and sprinkle it into the water, a burst of laughter came from the courtyard.
It was his father's voice.
"Feng 'er, I heard that you're going to get some good stuff again. Mother was also back!”
Before he arrived, he heard Li Jing's voice.
He saw Li Jing walking in front of him with a bright smile, followed by two young men who looked similar to Li Jing.
There was also an extremely beautiful woman beside him. She looked to be in her twenties, but Li Wufeng felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
In addition, there were also some guards accompanying him. They were all Li Jing's personal guards and were definitely trustworthy.
"Daughter-in-law greets father-in-law and mother-in-law. Greetings, brothers!”
Liu Siying quickly bowed.
This time was different from the past. She was already a real Li family member.
