Chapter 38 The plan to make a fortune
In the room.
"This brat, I haven't learned any other skills well, but he has learned most of the time, but he has no idea what he has done."
Shen Gongbao sat on a cushion with a depressed look on his face and muttered softly.
But immediately he didn't know what he remembered, and then he laughed and nodded, "No, not bad, talented, I like..."
In fact, at the beginning, what he wanted to give Lu Chuan was a magic weapon to protect himself, not the Zixiao Divine Sword.
He originally thought it was too early to hand over Zixiao Sword to Lu Chuan, but then he thought about it and decided to change his mind.
First of all, Lu Chuan has a bit of talent in swordsmanship, and now he has also mastered some skills.
Secondly, Lu Chuan will go to the mountain to fight the ferocious beast for the first time in three days. The ferocious beast's strength is unknown, so Lu Chuan's weapons naturally cannot be too bad.
Moreover, he has been practicing Taoism in Kunlun Mountain Qing, and has never fought with anyone. The Zixiao Sword was only out of the sheath after entering his hand today. If it falls too much into his hand, it is considered that the divine sword is covered with dust.
Besides, if he needs weapons, then find materials to refine one.
"Just give it to me. Anyway, I still have to give it to you if I don't give it to you now, it's the same sooner or later!"
...
In the yard.
Lu Chuan was in a good mood since he bought the Zixiao Sword. He looked around for a long time and couldn't let go of it.
But he remembered that he had to see the shop, so he went back to the room and put the sword on the bed and went to the shop outside.
It is now midsummer and the climate is getting hotter.
Lu Chuan stood behind the counter and was like standing in a steamer, and soon he felt sweaty.
Looking at the street at the entrance of the store, the heat could be seen by the naked eye, and he really sympathized with the people who were still on the street in such a hot day.
"This ghost weather is almost forty degrees."
Lu Chuan closed his eyes and lay bored on the counter, muttering: "I really want to eat ice cream and ice cream..."
This is the limitation of this era.
In the hot summer, there are neither air conditioning nor fans, nor cold ice cream drinks that can reduce heat, nor are there any dazzling array of long legs.
If you want to cool down, there is only one way, which is to lie by the well and draw buckets of water, and use a gourd ladle to pour well water into your stomach.
Lu Chuan tried the effect, and it can be said that it was an immediate effect. This is also a local method used by many people today.
However, this earthly recipe is also a treatment for symptoms but not the root cause.
Even if you drink your stomach so swells like a pregnant woman, after a short period of coolness, the unbearable high temperature is like a maggot on the tarsal bone, which follows.
"By the way!"
Suddenly Lu Chuan was stunned. He thought that he was a Qi Refiner at least now, and he possessed the Taoist secret technique. He did not have a wonderful recipe for reducing heat?
"Five Elements Escape Technique, Samadhi True Fire..."
But when he thought of the Taoist skills he had learned, Lu Chuan suddenly became like a deflated ball and wilted.
The Five Elements Escape Technique is not useful, and the Samadhi True Fire is adding fuel to the fire. If you use it, you can probably directly roast yourself.
He wanted to doze off and prepare for his practice at night, but the weather was too hot and he couldn't even sleep.
Because his skills are still too shallow to resist the severe heat and cold environment.
In desperation, he had to get up and go to the backyard to drill a bucket of well water, poured himself a few sips, then took the water into the shop, and sprinkled some cooling on the ground.
Then place the bucket next to it and prepare for later use.
“Ice cream, ice cream, popsicles…”
Lu Chuan whispered in a low voice. He missed the refreshing taste of these things very much, but he was destined to be unable to eat them in this world.
He can't do it, and no one can do it, let alone sell it.
"Wait, wait wait wait wait wait..."
Suddenly, Lu Chuan's eyes opened and a light appeared in his eyes: "It's fine if I can't make ice cream, I can't make popsicles?"
When he was eating ice cream, he had read the ingredients list on the packaging bag. The ingredients were so complicated and numerous. He had no impression of the rest except white sugar and milk.
However, popsicles are much simpler to make, as if they can be frozen into ice by sugar water.
Thinking of this, Lu Chuan was overjoyed and said to himself: "There hasn't been popsicles in this world yet. Hehe, then I, Mr. Lu, will benefit the descendants of Yan and Huang this time, and will send you the saint of summer relief products - popsicles!"
As he said that, he looked around again for the wood carving shop that was deserted.
If he really wants to try to do it, he will probably get rich. Anyway, Shen Gongbao asked him to see the shop during the day, and it was too boring to be unable to practice. It would be better to make some money by himself.
In addition, the popsicle business has two biggest difficulties.
One is how to freeze sugar water into popsicles, and the other is how to store them after making them into popsicles.
It should be noted that in such a hot day, there are no cold storage, freezers and refrigerators in this world. Popsicles probably turned into water before they were sold.
But these problems are not problems for him at all.
Don’t forget that he is not an ordinary person now, but a qi refiner with Taoist skills.
"Master, Master..."
After thinking about it for a while, Lu Chuan felt that his "major plan to make money" was absolutely feasible, and immediately couldn't wait to run to Shen Gongbao's room.
"What are you doing? Did the wolf bit your butt or what if?"
Shen Gongbao was taking a nap on the couch in the room, but was woken up by Lu Chuan. When he was speechless when he looked at Lu Chuan's impatient appearance.
"Master, my apprentice's butt wasn't bitten by a wolf, but it was burning!"
Lu Chuan said miserably: "It's too hot this day...Huh..."
Speaking of this, Lu Chuan was suddenly stunned and saw the cool breeze in Shen Gongbao's room, and he could not feel the high temperature at all.
This midsummer that can kill people is no less than a paradise.
"Okay, Master, my apprentice was almost steamed when you were watching the shop outside, but you were taking a nap here, I..."
"Ahem!"
Shen Gongbao's face was a little unnatural, and he waved his hand with a guilty look: "Advisor, whisper, whisper, you see, the master is old, you really can't stand the high temperature!"
"Tsk... Master, don't fool me. Is the apprentice so easy to cheat?"
Lu Chuan looked disbelief and hugged his arms with his arms in contempt: "I have only heard of people who were killed by heat before, but I have never heard of gods who were killed by heat."
"Okay...Okay!"
Shen Gongbao knew that he was in the wrong, so he quickly waved his hand to change the topic and said, "Aren't you looking at a store? I suddenly came to find a teacher?"
"Learn Taoism, Master, don't you think... should you teach me something on such a hot day?"
Lu Chuan raised his eyebrows, revealing one you know what you mean.
This is to learn the Taoist art of ice making and prepare for his next "major plan to make money".
Shen Gongbao looked at Lu Chuan's expression and pondered slightly, and his heart suddenly became clear.
"This brat actually wants to learn how to cool down."
But this time he was also inappropriate. He had a cool and comfortable nap in the room, but Lu Chuan suddenly came to the door and hit him in a hurry.
"Ahem, don't you understand the purpose of letting you see the store on such a hot day?"
Shen Gongbao coughed dryly, pretending that his move was meaningful.
"Uh, what's your purpose?" Lu Chuan was also deceived by his expression.
"You must know that this practice not only practices Taoism, but also requires cultivating your mind. Doesn't such hot weather just sharpen your spirit and will?"
Shen Gongbao said earnestly, and when he saw Lu Chuan bowing his head and thinking when he heard this.
So before Lu Chuan could react, he changed his voice and continued, "But I see that you have worked very hard and I feel very reluctant. Well, I will teach you a Fengguan technique. After I finish learning, I can attract Fengguan Fengguan to do the Fengguan!"
"Thank you, Master!"
Lu Chuan was still thinking about Shen Gongbao's words just now, and he quickly thanked him, and suddenly said respectfully: "By the way, Master, do you have a way to make water turn into ice?"
"Yes, Ice Technique is fine, but what do you want to do?" Shen Gongbao said in surprise: "Ice Technique is not very effective in this hot summer season, right?"
"Then you can pass the two techniques to your disciples together."
