Ye Gaosheng also said, "So I’m not the only one who feels this way. I also think it’s inappropriate to let two eagles receive someone’s thanks, but... it was my little sister who said this!"
Su Ning’s lips twitched uncontrollably, "..."
Even now, the Fourth Master still hadn’t understood. If the master could utter such words, didn’t it clearly indicate that he was in a bad mood and didn’t want to be disturbed?
"How about... Fourth Master goes to meet them?" Su Ning cautiously suggested.
The young lady wanted to thank the owner of this household. Although the courtyard was solely the master’s, the master was technically the rightful owner, but the Fourth Master was also a legitimate owner. It wouldn’t be excessive for him to meet the young lady.
Ye Gaosheng, who was often somewhat single-minded, didn’t see anything wrong with what Su Ning had said, but the thought of meeting a young lady still made him awkwardly ask, "Is that... appropriate?"
If that man wanted to offer thanks, he could go, but unfortunately, it was said that the man could already walk today, yet he hadn’t mentioned offering thanks at all. Instead, he took others’ services for granted.
In Ye Gaosheng’s view, such a person was really impolite.
Su Ning then spoke, "There’s nothing inappropriate about it. Fourth Master is the master’s elder brother, and they didn’t specifically request to thank the master by name. It’s fine if Fourth Master goes. Besides, that young lady and the man are together; it’s not a private meeting."
"That’s good." Hearing Su Ning say this, Ye Gaosheng felt a bit less tense.
In the room, Ye Jiu, who wanted to sleep a bit longer, ultimately couldn’t fall asleep.
Just as Ye Gaosheng and Su Ning had left, Ye Wenzheng began loudly knocking on the door.
Moreover, from the sound of it, his knocks were even more vigorous than Ye Gaosheng’s.
Just as Ye Jiu had lain back down and was drifting to sleep, he was awakened again by the noise outside. Irritated, he kicked off the blankets, got out of bed, and opened the door. "Didn’t I say not to disturb my sleep?"
"Little aunt..." Ye Wenzheng was also left bewildered by the shouting.
"What is it?" In front of Ye Wenzheng, Ye Jiu knew he still had to maintain some semblance of dignity.
"The... ice has already frozen. We..." Ye Wenzheng, still startled from being shouted at for no reason, spoke hesitantly.
Ye Jiu held his forehead, "Right, how could I have forgotten about that!"
Turning around, Ye Jiu closed the door to change clothes, but his voice continued to emanate from inside the room, "Hurry and tell Su Ning to find some people to haul the ice blocks to the shop, the slightly cheaper one. As for the pricing, let it be two taels of silver per block. But make sure to explain to customers that the ice cannot be consumed directly and is only for cooling and relieving heat.
If there’s extra space in the shop, we can make ice directly there. If not, we can make it at home and then transport it over.
Also, didn’t your fourth uncle make a barrel of shower gel yesterday? Hurry and have someone buy some porcelain bottles to package it. Anyone who buys more than 50 taels of silver worth of goods at once gets a bottle of shower gel free..."
The quantity is large enough that the ice won’t melt too quickly, enough to sustain the journey.
As for the shower gel, he definitely wouldn’t have time to open the shop while in the capital city these few days, so the only option was to start building the brand. Once people used it and liked its effects, they would naturally come to inquire about purchasing it.
As the saying goes, good wine needs no bush.
