Chapter 10: Smuggling Contraband (1/2)



The final dish, ice jelly mixed with milk jelly and various small ingredients, immediately conquered the entire Zhao family.

Zhao Sizhu was stunned. "I've never tasted such a delicious and refreshing drink. Is there any more? I want more..."

Old Mrs. Zhao grinned. "What are you eating? They're all expensive. I'll sell them tomorrow. I still have some left at the bottom of the bowl. Just lick it..."

Zhao Sizhu took the bowl from Old Lady Zhao and licked it.

Zhao Sanzhu looked at Old Man Zhao's bowl and said, "Dad, if you don't have an appetite, let me lick the bottom of the bowl."

“Take it, take it…”

Zhao Taohua was both amused and confused, and was about to serve them some, but unfortunately the four pillars of the Zhao family didn't want them anymore, saying that they would sell them tomorrow. It was such an expensive thing, so they just wanted to try it.

However, everyone was completely impressed by Zhao Taohua after eating this bowl of ice jelly, and felt that this business was not impossible to do.

Even the most pessimistic elder of the Zhao family began to have hope.

After that, they worked all night long chopping bamboo and making bamboo bowls. The four brothers were so energetic that Zhao Sanzhu was puzzled. "When I was a laborer in the past, I thought I would work as little as possible, but now I'm working for my family and I don't even want to sleep."

“It’s true.”

"I don't want to sleep tonight. I want to stay awake until dawn, and then we can go to town and sell them all..."

"It seems I am too..."

"Why don't you sleep?" Zhao Taohua came over with her hands on her hips and urged, "How can I smuggle the goods in if you are not sleeping? You have to put the goods in the refrigerator first!"

After everything was ready, the Zhao family finally went to bed.

However, in the second half of the night, everyone was so excited that they kept asking each other questions.

"Brother, what time is it?"

"I don't know."

"Is it almost dawn?"

"It's not light yet, go to sleep quickly, look at my brother, he's sleeping so well..."

"Brother is really asleep?"

"Asleep," Zhao Dazhu said.

"Can you talk while you're asleep?"

Zhao Dazhu: “…” Accidentally exposed.

After tossing and turning all night, everyone fell asleep in the early morning. Zhao Taohua quietly took out the things from the space, and then prepared breakfast with numb hands and feet.

Although it was just brown rice porridge, everyone ate it with great relish, as if they were about to become rich.

Before leaving, Zhao Taohua of course did not forget to smuggle some private goods and secretly put a bag of ice cubes in it to better preserve the taste.

When we got to the place, it just melted and we took it out.

So Zhao Taohua warned all the brothers of the Zhao family not to open the food before selling it, as it would affect the taste.

Everyone nodded resolutely.

Soon, they were five people in a car, guarding a large wooden barrel, and they went to the town's busiest street.

Watching people coming and going, the sun gradually rose above my head.

Zhao Taohua quietly took away the bag of ice cubes and said, "You can sell it now."

However, the four pillars of the Zhao family, who were used to doing hard labor, had glue on their mouths and could not open their mouths at all.

The key lies in Zhao Taohua, who opens her voice and shouts, "Ice-cold, refreshing, a holy delicacy to beat the summer heat... One bowl for a sweaty body, one bowl for a dry mouth, one bowl for a sore throat..."

In such hot weather, every symptom hits the point directly, attracting the attention of countless people.

"Big sister, what is this?"

"Ice jelly."

Mixed with brown sugar and milk jelly, it is amber in color. Once it is served, it immediately stimulates everyone's taste buds.

The key is that it really feels cool.

"How much?"
