Chapter 42: Intimidation

Glauber's salt, also known as horse tooth salt.

It is precisely because its shape is like a horse's tooth that it got its name.

Although compared to the horse tooth salt produced in later generations.

The ones that Zhou Peirong refined himself are much inferior in quality.

But Zhou Peirong felt that using this thing to make ice was enough.

Glauber's salt is ready.

Then, it’s time to try making ice.

The process of making ice is even simpler.

There is water, there is Glauber's salt, and there is a person who can stir it.

This matter is basically done.

But this process can be said to be very boring and somewhat unsatisfactory.

However, the final result still did not disappoint Zhou Peirong.

Looking at the crystal clear ice in the basin in front of me.

The corners of Zhou Peirong's mouth were grinning almost to the base of his ears.

Maybe in later generations.

This ice-making technology is just a chemistry experiment for junior high school students.

For most people in later generations, ice-making technology is not even a topic of conversation after dinner.

But in this world, if the ice-making technology is leaked.

The sensation caused by it will definitely not be lower than that of papermaking.

Because to some extent.

Making ice artificially is almost equivalent to changing the weather.

And changing the weather is a real fairy trick!

Quite literally.

As long as Zhou Peirong is willing, he may gain the status of a land god by using this ice-making technology and just promote it casually.

However, Zhou Peirong had no intention of doing this at all.

Can a land fairy or something like that become a rich man?

What's more, Zhou Peirong didn't want to be so high-profile.

Zhou Peirong is very clear about the principle that if a tree is as beautiful as a tree, the wind will destroy it.

However, Zhou Peirong wants to keep a low profile, but some people just don't want him to do so.

The news that he had successfully created ice somehow spread throughout West Wind Town.

It has to be said that the world is lagging behind in other aspects.

But the speed at which this news spread was quite astonishing.

It only takes half a day.

The news that Zhou Peirong successfully created ice spread throughout Liming County.

After getting the news, many people immediately approached Zhou Peirong directly.

The goals of these people are surprisingly consistent.

"Boss Zhou, our goal is the ice-making technology in your hands. As long as you are willing to give up, then the conditions are up to you!"

"What? You don't want to sell ice-making technology, that's okay, we can just buy ice! It's just the price of this ice, you can't set it too high!"

"I heard from people in the town that the thing you use to make ice is something called Glauber's salt. Can I buy some of this?"

These people just sang and I came on stage, which made Zhou Peirong's head grow bigger.

But Zhou Peirong couldn't help but drive these people away.

no way!

He could only bite the bullet and keep making concessions with these people.

But whether these people want ice-making technology or they want ice and Glauber's salt.

Zhou Peirong never let go of these people from beginning to end.

Seeing that Zhou Peirong had no intention of trading.

These people feel uninterested and ultimately have no choice but to leave.

But he could send other people away, but there were some people that Zhou Peirong was hard to fool.

And this person who is not easy to fool is none other than Liming County Magistrate Wei An.

That’s right!

Our magistrate is here again!

"Boss Zhou, you deceived me so hard!"

As soon as Wei An came up, he pretended to be unhappy and began to question Zhou Peirong.

"Let me tell you this, the reason why you chose to contract this mountain is not just for picking fruits."

"Sure enough! This county's guess is correct. You two do have another purpose!"

"Boss Zhou, you and Miss Jin are not being kind!"

"My Lord County Magistrate, you are wronging me and Miss Jin when you say this!"

Faced with Wei An's "calling out troops to investigate", Zhou Peirong still smiled and asked in a low voice, neither humble nor overbearing.

"Our purpose has actually been written in the contract document. Mr. County Magistrate, didn't you see it?"

"Ah, haha, of course I saw this."

Wei An laughed and covered up the paperwork.

After a pause, Wei An put on a serious look and lowered his voice at the same time.

"This ice-making technique is no small matter! If you keep this technique in your hands, let alone Jin Yueru, even the head of the Jin family will not be able to protect you!"

"So, I don't think you need to be reminded by this county as to how you should choose next, you should know it yourself!"

Zhou Peirong nodded in agreement.

What Wei An said was not scaremongering, nor was he trying to scare Zhou Peirong. He didn't even have too many selfish motives.

He just didn't want Zhou Peirong to make a wrong move and cling to this ice-making method, and eventually be targeted by a real big shot, and end up dying without knowing how.

True.

The relationship between Wei An and Zhou Peirong is far from being a good relationship.

But Wei An didn't want Zhou Peirong to die easily.

In this case, he will lose a good way to make money.

Zhou Peirong's ability, potential and creativity are all there.

Look at people the way Guardforce sees people.

He was naturally certain that as long as Zhou Peirong did not die, he would become a wealthy businessman sooner or later.

In this way, he, Wei An, can naturally follow suit.

So now.

He gave Zhou Peirong a reminder to gain some favorability with Zhou Peirong.

For him, this is a sure-fire investment.

Zhou Peirong naturally understood Wei An's thoughts immediately.

In fact.

Even without Guard Security's reminder, Zhou Peirong had no intention of clinging to the ice-making technology and was determined not to let go.

In fact.

This ice-making technology was actually brought out by Zhou Peirong specifically to make it easier for Jin Yueru to exchange favors.

With Jin Yueru's energy and status, he can indeed keep the papermaking technology and make a lot of money with it.

But during this process, there will definitely be people who will be jealous and jump out to interfere.

Encountered this situation.

Jin Yueru can use this ice-making technique to get some people to come forward for him and solve the problem.

As for who Jin Yueru will make friends with and who will come forward, that is not Zhou Peirong's concern.

And now.

Zhou Peirong was about to use the art of making ice as a stepping stone to attack the county magistrate.

"Thank you, Lord Magistrate, for reminding me! I have no intention of keeping this ice-making skill to myself!"

"If the county magistrate is interested, I can tell you the secret of this ice-making technique."

"I just hope that when adults use this technology to make ice, they can think of me and Miss Jin!"

Zhou Peirong said sincerely with a smile on his face.
