Their palace specializes in cooling Xin Qiji’s car frame with summer ice cubes. Xin Qiji got into the car and there was a crystal clear ice cube in the car, braving the slightest chill and emitting fragrance.
So the car is not only very cool, but also very fragrant and comfortable in hot summer.
Not only that, these ice cubes can also be directly knocked to make cold drinks with milk, honey and fruit for Xin Qiji. Only senior officials in the Southern Song Dynasty can enjoy high-grade sweetness comparable to modern ice cube fruit fishing.
So Xin Qiji happily enjoyed cold drinks and ice cubes all the way to Lin’ an.
To tell the truth, Xin Qiji still felt a different level of treatment from the big countries in the second Southern and Southern Song Dynasties.
After returning to Zhongdu once, Xin Qiji told Su Yonglin about the great post unification because he felt that the post was not satisfactory, and Su Yonglin paid attention to it.
So Su Yonglin ordered those suspected chefs who were unqualified and a little insulting to the ingredients to be taken to the nearest army rotor army for further study, so that they could follow the cooks of the rotor army to hone their skills.
Until you make a meal that will satisfy all the soldiers in the army and then return to your original post.
After three months of study, the chefs returned to their original jobs one after another.
After that, according to the feedback from the frequent travel officials, the overall food level of Dayitong has been greatly improved, and the frequent travel officials have said that it is really delicious.
As a result, the phenomenon of self-carrying cakes and going out for a toothache has become much less.
Xin Qiji also felt the appearance of the changed post this time, and he remembered deeply that the food in the three fried lei posts made him eat the same pot of rice in the army.
Although the dishes are not so fine, they look rough, but they are very fragrant, which makes people want to gulp down rice and flour cakes, and even want to clean the steamed bread with soup.
This kind of feeling just meets the needs of officials who are tired and hungry.
Xin Qiji is still satisfied with three dishes and one soup.
However, this improved food standard for big business trips is still many times worse than the treatment of high-ranking officials in the Southern Song Dynasty.
It is not something that Chaochao will give to officials just to specialize in ice and ice fruit fishing.
However, it is not so rare to have a cold drink in the dynasty. It can be said that the officials of the dynasty are a more conventional means of cooling off the heat during the hot season of the people.
Xin Qiji inquired about the price of cold drinks in Lin ‘an in the Southern Song Dynasty and made a comparison. It was found that the price of cold drinks in Dachao was lower than that in Lin ‘an in the Southern Song Dynasty.
The general decrease in the price of cold drinks is due to the influx of people, and the coming of gunpowder era is the reason.
Since the end of the Tang Dynasty, the demand for gunpowder in the army has soared, and the development of gunpowder manufacturing technology has gradually discovered that saltpeter will absorb a lot of heat energy when it is dissolved in water, which is very surprising.
After a long time, some skilled craftsmen began to make ice with saltpeter. They put water into a jar, took a bigger jar to drain water, and then put the jar in the jar and kept adding saltpeter into the jar, and the jar water became ice.
After saltpetre dissolved in water, craftsmen gradually developed a matching cooling crystallization method or evaporation crystallization method to make saltpetre come out again and repeat it.
With this technology, the expensive nature of cold drinks is greatly reduced, which makes it possible for cold drinks to further enter the people.
Su Yonglin’s army has a great demand for gunpowder, and skilled gunpowder craftsmen will also produce a large number of ice cube by-products when making granular gunpowder.
This by-product has two advantages. First, it was put into the official summer welfare by Su Yonglin, and it was warmly welcomed by the officials who needed hard work in the hot summer.
The second place where officials consume so much ice production is to invest in the people.
Su Yonglin’s Ministry of Finance has set up the Water Ice Department, which is specially responsible for undertaking the by-products of gunpowder manufacturing, except the welfare ice needed by the government, and other ice parts are included in the Water Ice Department.
The Water and Ice Department is responsible for the development of cold drinks, investing in the establishment of workshops to produce cold drinks in batches, and then investing in private sales to earn extra profits, which are directly incorporated into the public accounts of the Ministry of Finance and returned to the country.
Chapter 72 Minister Xie Daguo emperor positions conferring
Lin Jingchun was poor and crazy after the decision of special expenditure for the renovation of the Yellow River.
Mosquito meat is also meat. Although the Water and Ice Department can’t be the main financial target, some Chinese people have developed the habit of eating cold drinks in winter because of the constant cold drinks all year round, so the Water and Ice Department can give the Ministry of Finance a lot of income all year round.
Lin Jingchun, who was staring at the accounts of Shuibing Company, also asked Shuibing Company to develop more and more competitive cold drinks and put them on the market as soon as possible, so that the general public can be familiar with cold drinks and know them.
Generally speaking, you can earn as much as you can. You are poor and crazy!
In addition, Lin Jingchun, who is not satisfied with the fact that the current scope of making money by Shuibing Company can be limited to Zhongdu and Yanyun, also asked to open up markets in other regions besides the central government.
He plans to open the Shuibingsi cold drink factory to other areas in big countries, such as Zhonghe, Shandong and Henan, and double investment to expand production and expand the factory to recruit more people to make ice.
Look at this posture, this guy is quite prepared to monopolize the big cold drink market.
Of course, the price of cold drinks for the people is lower, even if the official welfare is well controlled, there are not so many twists and turns. Compared with the Southern Song Dynasty, this kind of milk, honey and fruit is expensive, high-end cold drinks, and the national cold drinks are of course far worse.
Xin Qiji can say that he has never eaten this grade of cold drink, and he is not willing to eat it, because fruit and honey are still high-grade products in the Republic of China, so he can’t eat them casually.
Earlier in the army, there were straight ice cubes in the army
In order to prevent soldiers from training too hard in hot season and suffering from heatstroke, Su Yonglin specially approved a batch of ice cubes for the barracks. At that time, Xin Qiji liked to drink ice water with soldiers and bite the ice cubes without melting them, which made him crunching in his mouth.
Even now, he is obsessed with this feeling. Sometimes when the weather is hot, he puts a cup of ice on the front table and crunches a few pieces of ice while dealing with public writing. It feels very cool.
