Now, the nights are getting hotter and soon it will be too hot to sleep at night, so it’s just right to use it when the time comes.

If someone comes to buy ice directly, they would have to wait in line. Ice production at home is limited, and there is no way to make so much ice.

The family also needs to rest at night, it will be impossible to make ice for 12 hours a day. In other words, they decided to only make ice during the day, not at night.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan collected all the documents that were made today, and all the money was taken away by Sifu. They won’t have enough people making ice at home, so they didn’t want to allow any more ice purchases. In the end, Xue Yan made a record of who ordered the ice, how much ice they ordered, how much money he received, and when they had to deliver the ice.

Fortunately, only the right amount of ink was ground, and it was used up.

Xue Yan put away the ink and paper that hadn’t been used and kept it somewhere safe. Then, he began to wash the brush and inkstone in a basin of clean water together with Jiang Yue.

“The ink-stained bristle on the brush needs to be washed clean. It must be cleaned every time after use to prevent the tip of the brush from splitting.

“If you don’t wash it, it will lose hair, which will affect the service life of the pen.

“If the inkstone is not washed, less ink will be left. If the residual ink is washed clean, it will be possible to grind the ink evenly next time. The written characters will naturally come out smoother.”

One basin of water was not clean, so another basin of water was used. It took three basins of water to wash the brush and inkstone clean.

After these two were done, they put them away and put them aside.

Before noon, Xue Dagui and the others came back again. The popsicles were all sold out, so they could only sit around and wait for lunch.

Xue Dagui was very tired. He thought he only sold popsicles as a popsicle seller and did not have to help with other things. However, the other two popsicle sellers were embarrassed to sit down for a long time like him. They felt that if they did not do much work, they would not deserve the 15 coins a day. Therefore, the two of them just sat and rested for a short while, and then helped chisel ice or deliver things to the table.

“Xue Yan, Jiang Yue, isn’t this the life?” Xue Dagui suddenly sighed happily, “Why didn’t I think to do this earlier? Fortunately, I took the time to beg your family to hire me, otherwise, I would’ve never known that I could find a job that suited me so well!”

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan looked at each other without speaking.

Their Grandpa had always been worried about Xue Dagui. Xue Dagui was usually very lazy, he can’t grow crops well, and he doesn’t have much energy to do physical work. Based on his abilities, it would have been not easy to find such a job suitable for him in a time like this. Their grandpa would be very happy to hear that he was earning more than others and was doing a very good job.

After noon, the number of people decreased, but there were still quite a few people waiting around.

There was still a queue but it had shortened, and the four tables were still full of people eating their lunch.

After noon passed, the people who came to the booth really only came to eat ice or drink iced sour plum juice to cool themselves down. Almost no one ordered rice noodles and liangpi.

“The rice noodles and Liangpi I brought with us today were sold out by the time noon came, so it doesn’t matter if no one orders them now.”

However, this meant that Jiang Yue and the others had nothing to eat.

Seeing this, Xue Sifu hurriedly bought some steamed buns for everyone to eat. Everyone happily munched on their buns and sat around.

Even those who were hired had a meal.
