After that, Xue Yan showed Xue Yifu the blueprint of the cart, and explained every detail to him.

At this moment, Xue Sifu also returned from town. There was also another ox cart from the town behind him.

There were two big boxes and several small boxes in his own cart. He had a feeling that the popsicles would sell very well, so he bought more small boxes just in case.

The wooden boxes he bought were not made of good wood, so they were not expensive.

He was doing this to control his capital. He had really invested too much into this business.

There were two wooden barrels with lids on his ox cart, and the wooden barrels were filled with the ingredients for making sour plum juice. Wumei, tangerine peel, licorice, and other ingredients were inside. These materials were all bought from Shen’s Medical Center.

The sweet red beans that were mixed with the ice were also placed in one of the wooden buckets.

He had too many things and one ox cart could not bring them back, so he gave the coachman 15 coins and brought them back home.

The coachman’s ox cart had the same kind of oil paper and brand-new quilts that were specially used to wrap food. There were big and small quilts, and some of the small quilts could even be used to cover a one-year-old child. They were stacked very high, like a mountain. Fortunately, the quilts were not heavy, so they only looked high.

The oil paper was placed at the bottom and was covered by the quilt, so it could not be seen.

The cotton will be picked next month. The new quilts were actually cotton from last year which had not been used before. They were made into quilts this year. Therefore, they were almost new.

The villagers wanted to ask why he bought two large wooden boxes, but they didn’t expect a cart of quilts to be behind them. It was obviously bought by Xue Sifu.

Why were they buying quilts on such a hot day?

Someone immediately nudged Xue Da, who was also sitting under the shade, “Xue Da, look, your son has gone crazy. He’s buying quilts this summer! Even if he was short of quilts, he could pick cotton to make them next month. Why did he buy so much? Besides, no one needs quilts on such a hot day! What if he gets dizzy from the heat?”

Xue Da sat there with his walking stick. Because of his old age, his hearing was a little bad. He only heard the ox cart when it was quite close to him and turned around.

Before he could see anything clearly, the person beside him said a long string of words. Then, he also saw it clearly. The old man immediately laughed and said, “He must have his own reasons for buying these.”

Naturally, no one believed his words.

The ox cart just so happened to reach Xue Da’s side. Xue Sifu immediately greeted his grandfather, “Grandpa!”

“Hurry home now! Haha!” Xue Da chuckled. He knew that his grandson was going to sell ice the next day, but he didn’t ask for the details and didn’t want to care.

Children and grandchildren have their own fortunes to create.

Xue Sifu only laughed and waved as he left, alongside the ox cart that was behind him.

It wasn’t until Xue Sifu’s ox cart reached out of earshot that someone said under the shade, “What use can it have other than to cover someone from the cold?”

Obviously, he still didn’t understand the science behind it.

However, another old man asked Xue Da, “Xue Da, I heard from Dagui that your family made ice. They’re been eating it, have you tried it yet?”
