Early the next morning, Xiao Jungkook carried some saltpeter to the county yamen.
When Mo Yoongi heard that Elementary Scholar Xiao wanted to see him, he was a little confused.
He had heard of Xiao Jungkook’s reputation. He was the first xiao san yuan in Nanxi county, with a slightly better than average portfolio.
However, Xiao Jungkook’s little wife left the biggest impression on him, who had tied up Doctor Shi and complained to him the previous time.
He actually had some errands to run, but he postponed it and asked someone to call Xiao Jungkook in.
Xiao Jungkook was an elementary scholar, so he didn’t need to kneel down when he visited an official.
He gave a scholar’s salute to Mo Yoongi. “I met you before, Sir!”
Mo Yoongi looked at the gentle and elegant young man who walked in and couldn’t help but leave a good impression of him.
Xiao Jungkook didn’t look like a scholar from a poor family in the countryside at all.
Mo Yoongi was only a few years older than Xiao Jungkook.
However, he still admired his talented peers.
A smile appeared on his cold face. “Do away with the formalities. Please take a seat!”
He went straight to the point and asked, “You came to see me today. What’s the matter?”
He was really busy with official business and did not have any extra time to waste.
Xiao Jungkook knew what kind of person Mo Yoongi was.
He also bluntly stated his purpose of coming here. “I did have something to discuss with you today.
“My wife’s master once taught them how to make ice. She was grateful for her master’s kindness, so she wanted to share this with the public.
“Anyone who wants to learn how to make ice can do so.
“It’s just that the Wu family wanted to forcefully buy this formula previously, but my wife did not want to waste her master’s hard work, so she rejected it.
“We are afraid that if we teach others how to make ice in the village, the Wu family wouldn’t agree and would find ways to make a fuss.
“So we wanted to ask Sir, if we could borrow the vacant space in the county yamen for me to teach everyone how to make ice.
“Firstly, the people living in the county could put them in ice basins at home to relieve the heat. Secondly, we can also make some icy cold drinks to earn some pocket money.”
He paused again. “Of course, if Sir finds this formula is useful, you can also offer it to the capital to let more people learn how to make ice to relieve the heat.”
Although Mo Yoongi was very busy at the county yamen, he knew everything that happened in the county.
Therefore, he had already heard about making ice during summer and was still a little skeptical.
But he really did not expect that Xiao Jungkook and his wife would be so generous.
Not only did they decide to reveal the formula for free, but they also wanted to teach everyone how to make ice.
This was doing a good deed to other commoners, so he naturally would not object.
However, he still asked, “Have you thought about it?”
