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

520 Just Ask

Even Jiang Yue and Xue Yan had to make lunch every day to reduce the burden on the rest of the family. They were kids for goodness sake! He could not make his family work harder for just a hundred pieces of silver.

There was no end to earning money. He could always earn more in the future.

“Two hundred!” Butler Zhao quoted again.

Xue Sifu didn’t even think about it and wanted to refuse, but before he could open his mouth, Xue Dagui came up from behind him and said with a drooling face, “Alright, alright, alright. Two hundred it is. Hehe, two hundred would do.”

“Xue Dagui!” Xue Sifu glared.

Xue Dagui wasn’t angry at all. He even chuckled and smiled at Butler Zhao. He pulled him to the side and whispered to him in a corner, “How many years would it take to make two hundred? I’m a lazy person and even my heart is moved just by looking at it. I want to be lazy forever and if it means making ice for others once for a lifetime of rest, I would say yes. Hehe, it’s not like you’re that busy every night, why don’t you agree?”

Xue Sifu saw that Xue Dagui was thinking for his parents, so he naturally calmed down, “Xue Dagui, you know how hard it is for Gather and the others every day. Money can be slowly earned. We have more than enough to live a comfortable life now.”

“That’s true, but hehe…” Xue Dagui’s face turned into one with smiles. “Why don’t you send someone back to ask your parents and see if they’re willing to do so before rejecting Butler Zhao?”

Hearing this, Xue Sifu immediately laughed.

It was so much money. Not to mention his parents, even Erfu and the rest would definitely send it over without even eating dinner.

Xue Dagui was really lazy, but his brain…

He had already promised to send ice to the Yan family’s residence before nine tonight, so Xue Sifu naturally had to let the person driving the ox cart back to inform his family.

Was 60 kilograms of ice worth 200 pieces of silver?

Xue Dafu and the others naturally had no objections.

They had to make ice until it was dark. Usually, they would not make ice this late. At most, they would end work after the sun had set. Then, Wufu could still ride for a while before the sky turned dark. Jiang Yue took over the work of making dinner that day and began to prepare dinner with Xue Yan.

At the same time, Jiang Yue also thought that she could secretly follow the ox cart to town at night to exchange the seeds.

It had to be delivered before 9 in the evening. The ox cart would be too slow, so they had to use a horse carriage.

When dinner was ready, the ice wasn’t ready yet. Xue Sifu had already returned to help, so Jiang Yue, Xue Yan, Shuting, and Shiye ate first.

During the day, there was a lot of exposure to the sun. When the saltpeter was boiled, the water would evaporate due to the exposure to the sun, and the temperature would also be higher. In any case, the speed of making ice after boiling the saltpeter was very fast. Once the sun was gone, the temperature at night would be much lower than the temperature during the day, so the ice-making process became much slower.

While the saltpeter was being boiled, Xue Dafu and the others took turns to watch the fire under the large pots. The others took that time to have their dinner.

After Jiang Yue and Xue Yan finished their meal, they came to help look after the fire, but Li Hehua and the others didn’t let them. They said that the two children were tired after a long day and wanted them to wash up and go to bed early.

Since Jiang Yue had to go to town to change the seeds, she had to sneak out of her room under the excuse of sleeping and then sneak into town. Therefore, she obediently went to wash up, turned off the lights, and pretended to go to bed.

When the family was convinced that she was asleep, she opened the window at the back of her room and sneaked out. Then, she waited for her family’s carriage to pass by in the dark side of the road and moved out. She planned to secretly hang behind the carriage when the carriage passed by.
