It was very simple to make ice, as long as there was saltpeter.
"Liu Bao, go get some saltpeter."
Zhao Yiyang ordered.
"Saltpeter?"
Liu Bao was a complete idiot. He said with a dumbfounded expression,"Sir, what is saltpeter?"
"The logistics camp has…"
Li Chengqian couldn't stand it anymore and kicked him." How did you become a captain? Didn't they know that one of the materials used to make the Wolf Smoke was saltpeter?”
Saltpeter was widely used in ancient armies because it could be used to make smoke.
What was smoke?
In ancient times, it was used as a warning when marching and fighting.
Therefore, as long as they were soldiers, they would not be unfamiliar with the smoke.
In the time it took to make a cup of tea, Bao Liu came back with a big bag of saltpeter.
Zhao Yiyang found a vat and poured all the saltpeter into it. When he poured half of the water into the vat, the water and saltpeter reacted violently. The water splashed and exploded.
After the water surface stabilized, Zhao Yiyang poured the cold water into the copper basin and let it float on the water surface.
Soon, under the gazes of Li Chengqian, Hou Jie, Li Jingren, Liu Bao, and the others, white ice patterns began to appear on the water surface.
In just a few minutes, the surface of the water tank was covered with white ice.
The water in the copper basin also began to freeze.
The temperature of the originally hot and dry central tent had also become cold and moist.
Li Chengqian carefully touched the ice surface with his hand and gasped.""Brother, how did you do it? Who would believe that it would freeze in the scorching weather of August?”
Bao Liu almost fell to the ground. Sir, this must be a celestial technique, right? You actually know immortal techniques, and you still say that you're not an immortal?”
Hou Jie and Li Jingren were also shocked.
These country bumpkins had never seen such a method before.
Just like Liu Bao said, this must be the work of an immortal. Otherwise, how could the ice come out on such a hot day?
"What immortal tricks? It's just a small trick. I was planning to wait until the war was over and hope to get rich with this small trick. You don't know how poor I am!”
Zhao Yiyang said disdainfully.
He poured a bowl of grape wine and put a piece of ice into it.
After taking a sip, the heat in his body disappeared without a trace.
F * ck!
This was life!
Li Chengqian also quickly picked up a piece of ice for himself and threw it into his mouth, chewing it until it cracked.
"Can I join?"
Li Chengqian asked.
"Join us? You're so poor that you only have the Eastern Palace left.”
"Get lost. I have some savings. Although it's not much, I have at least a hundred strings.”(During the Zhenguan period, Yiguan money had the purchasing power of 3,000 yuan.)
A hundred strings?
This was a lot of money, equivalent to 300,000 RMB.
Very beautiful, very beautiful. I'll count you in.
Hou Jie also quickly interrupted," I'll invest too, I'll invest too. Brother Yang, you're such a good cook. How about we partner up and open a restaurant in Chang 'an?"”
Zhao Yiyang glanced at him.
"Little brother, you're a little too arrogant. Now we don't even have a single coin of capital, and you still want to open a restaurant?”
"I'm fine... I also have a private stash of money. Although it's not much, I can ask my sister and my mother for some more. I'll have at least two or three hundred strings.”
Err...
You're awesome. You're actually richer than the Crown Prince.
At this moment, Li Jingren, who had been silent all this while, suddenly spoke up," Count me in. I don't have many wives, only about 500 strings. It should be enough to open a restaurant."”
Clang.
Zhao Yiyang almost fell to the ground.
It turned out that the usually quiet and honest Big Brother Li Jingren was the sugar daddy!
Boss, please keep me!
Li Chengqian's expression was very interesting.
He was the crown prince, but he was not as rich as his officials.
Damn, what kind of world was this?

Zhao Yiyang had clearly underestimated Chai Shao and Qin Qiong's anger.
The attack on the saltworks made the two old generals furious.
Zhangsun Chong almost died in the attack, and Cheng Chumo was also seriously injured.
These two people were both Chai Shao and Qin Qiong's sons and nephews.
He was almost killed by the Qiang people in his own territory. If there was no reaction, how would he explain to Zhangsun Wuji and Cheng Yaojin when he returned to Chang 'an?
Especially Cheng Yaojin, who was famous for being difficult to deal with.
On the second day after the saltworks were attacked, the Right Military Guards began to sweep the area with Lan Zhou City as the center.
Zhao Yiyang was also transferred to Lan Zhou City.
After that, he followed the army to Longyou and watched the Qiang people, a once glorious race, disappear from the national forest.
Except for a small number of Qiang people who fled into the mountains and the Wilderness, the rest of the Qiang people were killed and their women and children became slaves.
It could be said that the entire Qiang tribe had paid a heavy price because of a small group of clansmen.
It was not an exaggeration to say that they were exterminated.
At the beginning of September, the month-long sweep ended.
However, the tribe that attacked the salt pans was still nowhere to be found. It was as if they had disappeared into thin air.
