Chapter 203 The weather is hot, do you want to eat popsicles?(1/2)
"Sir, let's see how saltpeter ice is made?"
Ying Zheng said curiously, he was already a little impatient.
After all, the weather is still a little hot nowadays. It would be great if there were a lot of ice cubes at this time!
However, in his opinion, this possibility seems not high.
After all, it’s okay to forget about anything else. This off-season thing is an extremely strange thing!
If it can be made into ice when it is hot, it will be almost as shocking as eating fresh fruits and vegetables in winter.
And Li Si and others have long been looking forward to it.
Ice making?
Can ice be made this month?
This really made them very curious and expectant.
"OK!"
Zhao Long nodded with a smile, "Then I will start doing it! The fourth brother, Lao Meng, come and fight!"
"good!"
"OK!"
Several people prepared some containers, a few pottery basins, and a pile of small glass bowls.
Of course, in addition to this, there are several crude sheepskin gloves sewn with sheepskin.
After all, touching the ice with bare hands is still OK in a moment, but over time, your hands will be ruined.
"Hold these bowls first and secure them to them."
Commander Zhao Long said, "By the way, wait for the water, don't pour it directly. It's useful to turn around!"
"good!"
Everyone nodded and watched Zhao Long fix the glass bowls first, and poured some water into each of them.
Then, I picked up a few pieces of saltpeter with higher purity, mashed them, and threw them into the basin below.
"Old Meng, let's mess up!"
"good!"
"Come on, keep putting it off!"
"good!"
After hearing this, Li Si hurriedly continued to throw the broken saltpeter in, while Meng Tian continued to stir up the shattering force.
Hula hula hula...
"Yeah? It's done, it's done? The water has turned white. Is it ice?"
After stirring for a while, Meng Tian couldn't help but feel surprised and shouted quickly.
What?
After hearing Meng Tian's words, everyone surrounded him. When they saw that the water in the bowls turned into colder white and a little ice appeared, they were all surprised!
"Fourth brother, keep investing!"
Zhao Long said, "Old Meng, keep stirring up! Don't stop. If you stop now, you will lose all your efforts!"
"Oh, okay!"
"good!"
After hearing this, the two continued to operate. Then, the water and ice in the bowls gradually solidified into lumps of ice!
"Come on, take a look!"
Zhao Long untied a bowl and took it out, "Wow, it's quite cold!"
"Let me see?"
Seeing this, Ying Zheng reached out and touched him, "Wow? It's cold!"
"cold?"
"Yeah, you guys come and see, too?"
"good!"
After hearing this, everyone stepped forward and touched it carefully a few times, and they were all surprised! 81zw.??m
Damn! Ice!
"Magic, it's so magical!"
Everyone couldn't help but exclaim.
"Come on, put these ice cubes into these quilts first!"
Zhao Long smiled and said, "Then put the cellar behind!"
"Okay, put it in quickly and don't let him melt!"
"promise!"
After listening to Ying Zheng's instructions, a group of soldiers took action immediately.
Of course, every soldier is also full of curiosity about this.
Ice, can you actually see ice in this hot weather?
It's simply amazing!
"Come on, let's continue!"
Zhao Long said, "When the saltpeter in this basin is saturated, we will start making ice in another basin. However, get some water first to cool down in this basin, which can save costs."
"good!"
Immediately, everyone continued to be busy under Zhao Long's command.
And piece of ice was made and finally placed in the cellar.
"It's okay, the village next door gives me so much saltpeter. I didn't expect to make so much ice!"
Finally, Zhao Long couldn't help but smile and said, "These ice cubes are enough for us to use for a long time! Moreover, this saltpeter can be used again after it is dried!"
"Is that so? It's magical!"
When Ying Zheng heard this, he smiled immediately, "After sir, you can actually see these magical things one by one!"
"Hey, what's there? There's nothing you can do about it..."
Zhao Long smiled and said, "After a while, when the electricity is turned on in our village, everyone can buy a refrigerator! At that time, if you want to store anything, you are not afraid of being too cold or overheating! Now, let's do it first.
!”
"Haha, this is no longer a good deal for us..."
Ying Zheng smiled and said to himself, since he knew that saltpeter can make ice, then, can I turn back in Xianyang Palace, and I can also make it?
"By the way, now that there are these ices, we can make a few more things..."
Zhao Long smiled and said, "Let's go back and make some popsicles, which can relieve the heat. Moreover, you can make several more dishes!"
"Oh? Is that?"
After hearing this, Ying Zheng immediately asked with a smile, "Popsicles? Are you eating ice?"
"yes……"
Zhao Long smiled and said, "Put some sugar in the water and make popsicles one by one, which is sweet and cool, convenient and efficient!"
sugar?
Ying Zheng was stunned when he heard this, "Sir, are you talking about malt sugar or tangerine water?"
"Ah...ah?"
Zhao Long was stunned, "Matt sugar is not good. Matt sugar is a fermented substance. We have to use sucrose or white sugar..."
"Sucrose? White sugar?"
"Yes... white sugar is the best, but if you don't have it, use sucrose!"
Zhao Long said, "It's sugarcane, have we eaten it?"
"Sugarcane...but that kind..."
After hearing this, Ying Zheng gestured in confusion, "One section after section, brown and black, the one with Zhishui?"
"Yes, hey, have you eaten this? Why don't you know what your name is?"
When Zhao Long heard this, he immediately smiled.
After hearing this, Ying Zheng smiled in his heart.
