In Ang Lee's memory, there was also such a scene. He would be pushed into the garbage pit by a naughty classmate. After climbing up, he would push his classmate down again, and so on and so forth.
Fortunately, when Ang Lee was playing in the garbage pit, he was already eight or nine years old. The three feet high garbage pit was not difficult for him at all. It did not have the conditions to trap him at all. However, every time he played, his clothes would be dirty all over. When he went back, he would inevitably be beaten and scolded.
Looking at the little brat in front of him who was trapped in the dirty garbage pit and crying anxiously, Ang Lee stepped over and reached out to pull the little brat out.
The little brat did not know who Ang Lee was, but after playing around the school for so many days, he had seen Ang Lee many times. Naturally, he was not too wary in his heart. He was stunned for a moment, and then he held Ang Lee's big hand.
With a gentle tug, Li An pulled the little brat out of the pit. However, his palms were dirty from the effort, and there was also the smell of mud and rotten food.
Many of the little brats in the school would bring snacks, and the most common snacks should be various kinds of tropical fruits. In the local area where natural resources were abundant, fruits were always the cheapest and the most common.
Many little brats would bring fruits to school. Sometimes, they would not want to eat half of them. After throwing them away, they would be transported to the garbage pit. After a long period of fermentation, the garbage pit would inevitably have the smell of rotten fruit. When the little brat rummaged through the garbage, it was inevitable that his hand would touch the rotten fruit. Then, it would be stained by Ang Lee's hand.
This familiar smell once again evoked the childhood memories of Ang Lee's previous life. Ang Lee clearly remembered that when he was a child, he appeared in the garbage more than once to rummage through things that were useful to him. Moreover, every time, he would have a big harvest.
However, what Ang Lee rummaged through was not a broken pen and paper, but a long flat piece of wood. It was the cheapest kind of popsicle. In the hot summer, many children would spend money to buy popsicles to eat. After eating the popsicles, they would throw away the popsicles in their hands. These popsicles would eventually flow to the garbage pit, and Ang Lee only needed to stay in the garbage pit to be able to find the most popsicles in the shortest time, thus achieving his goal of making small toys.
However, rummaging through the garbage for popsicles also had a certain risk. Ang Lee remembered that there were several times when his fingers were cut by broken glass because his movements were too impatient. Sometimes, they would be cut by branches.
The purpose of Ang Lee collecting a large number of popsicles was to make small fans or small cages. A small fan could be directly woven, and to make a small cage, glue or nails were also needed.
These were the childhood memories of Ang Lee's previous life. Recalling them, he still missed them very much, and it also gave him a very sweet feeling.
Ang Lee remembered that when he was young, because his family's conditions were not bad, he would always spend money to buy popsicles to eat every summer. Once, he saw a little loli from a poor family looking at him with envy, so he gave her one. As a result, it actually caused a scandal in the small campus, causing a little disturbance. Although he felt embarrassed at the time, it was very exciting when he thought about it now.
The unpleasant smell on his fingers was not something that Ang Lee could bear. He quickly went to the school to wash it clean, and by the way, he walked around the school to see the learning situation of the students.
Learning should start with children. This was the life conclusion of a wise person. It was not wrong at all. The ability of these children to learn the language was indeed very good. Ang Lee heard a lot of words of the Tang dynasty.
After class, most of the more than three hundred children ran to the toilet. After all, children at this age could not hold their urine. One class was the limit, and they could not hold it at all.
Some children went to the water pipe to drink water. After drinking water, they did not forget to wash their faces. After all, the temperature in this area was still relatively high, and it would maintain a relatively high temperature all year round.
Looking at these naughty children washing their faces with cold water, Ang Lee suddenly remembered the popsicles that he recalled when he saved the naughty children.
After coming to the Tang dynasty, Ang Lee had already invented the summer ice-making method. However, it might not have been popularized overseas, so he did not see anyone eating popsicles in the local area.
If there was no such artifact as the popsicle, how much suffering would the children be in in this hot weather?
Therefore, Ang Lee immediately made a decision. That was to immediately make ice cubes and produce a small amount of ice products as a benefit for the school in the afternoon. Not only could the teachers eat some cold products, but the students could also eat some if they performed well. In addition, if they produced more, they could also sell it inside and outside the school. Whoever liked to eat it could buy it with money.
Making ice cubes was very easy. Ang Lee had already done it. However, the colorless and tasteless ice cubes were not attractive to these naughty children. The ice cubes must be made delicious to satisfy the naughty children.
The simplest way was to dissolve white sugar in water. After making ice cubes, the ice cubes would have a sweet taste, which was the children's favorite.
Of course, only adding white sugar was the lowest level of cold products. Fruit juice could also be added. In this way, the ice cubes would have the taste of fruit. Moreover, it would be cool. If some dairy products were added, the taste would be even better.
Ang Lee suddenly remembered that his subordinates were making a large number of iced red tea drinks according to his idea. If there were ice cubes, they could make more tempting iced red tea.
Li An had a deep impression of the taste of iced red tea. In his previous life, he often drank iced red tea like this. He remembered that during a few blind dates, he drank iced red tea that tasted extremely good. He even drank so much that he forgot about his blind date. In the end, the date naturally fell through.
As for the invention of iced black tea, it was said that it came from an accident. On a hot summer day, a tea merchant was promoting his iced black tea, but because the weather was too hot, the tea merchant himself could not drink his own tea, so the sales naturally did not go up.
In frustration, a piece of ice accidentally fell into the brewed black tea. It was a pity to throw it away. Moreover, this was a clean piece of ice. The tea merchant was really thirsty, so he picked it up and drank it directly.
After drinking it, the tea merchant felt that his whole body was comfortable. There was a unique cool and refreshing feeling in his heart. Therefore, he had a bright idea. He changed the black tea to iced red tea with ice cubes. Soon, all the products were sold out.
This story might be nonsense, but it was enough to show the popularity of iced red tea. As long as it was invented, it would soon be sought after. Of course, the number of rich people in the local area was not many. If they focused on the local area, they would not make much money. However, iced red tea could be transported to all over the world, and the ice cubes could be made by the local area. In this way, iced red tea would inevitably sell well.
Especially in the Tang dynasty, the population of Chang 'an and Luoyang was so large. As long as the iced red tea was introduced to Chang' an City, the perfect iced red tea would be produced with the ice cubes produced in Chang 'an City.
Of course, according to the different tastes of customers, various auxiliary materials could be added to the iced red tea to make the iced red tea more delicious.
After going back, Ang Lee asked people to start making ice cubes. In order to prepare for a possible war, there were a lot of saltpeter on the Tang dynasty's transport ships. Therefore, the materials for making ice cubes were enough. It was completely possible to make a large number of ice cubes in a short time.
The price of local fruits was very low. White sugar transported from the Tang dynasty could also be easily bought. Dairy products were not difficult to get. With these materials, it was easy to make delicious cold products. The iced red tea would also be made in a short time. At that time, Ang Lee could drink a mouthful of iced red tea comfortably.
Activities such as making ice cubes and buying fruits and white sugar naturally had to be completed by his subordinates. Ang Lee did not need to personally intervene. He just needed to wait.
"Alang, the ice cream is ready. Would you like to taste it?"
Yun 'er still remembered the ice cream she had eaten when she was in Chang' an City. Moreover, she had already remembered how the ice cream was made. After thinking about it for a while, she made the ice cream.
"Oh, there are so many fruits and milk? It must be very delicious. "
Ang Lee took the ice cream from Yun 'er's hand and sniffed it gently. It tasted very sweet. He scooped a little with a spoon and put it in his mouth. His mouth was full of enjoyment.
"It's so delicious. Yun 'er, take some people to make more. Later, send it to the school and let the teachers taste it. Of course, some children who perform well can also taste this delicious food."
Ang Lee asked.
Ang Lee had seen the role of these delicacies. After the children were punished, almost no one dared to violate the discipline again. The number of children punished every day was less than ten. It could be said that the effect was obvious.
But the problem of discipline was solved. There was a more important problem that needed to be solved. That was learning. If all the children were just putting on a show in school, it would really be a waste of money to train them. Since the money was spent to train the children, the children must learn the cultural knowledge they should learn.
This time, Ang Lee was going to use ice cream to reward the students with better academic performance, while the students with worse academic performance did not have a share. Later, he could sell it to them if their families were rich.
"Alang, are you giving it to the teachers and students? Is there no one for me?"
Yun 'er pursed her lips.
Ang Lee said snappily, "Are you stupid? You made it yourself. You can't eat as much as you want. How could Alang not be willing to part with it?"
"Hee hee, thank you, Alang."
Yun 'er happily replied and turned to make ice cream.
Ang Lee asked and found out that the black tea would take two more days to complete. It seemed that the iced black tea would take two more days to be drunk. However, it felt good to be able to eat ice cream immediately.
Fifty servings of delicious fruit and sugar ice cream were quickly made. Yun 'er happily ran over to tell Ang Lee.
"Where are the wooden boxes and quilts? Hurry up and bring them over. "
After Ang Lee asked Yun 'er to make ice cream, he asked his subordinates to bring over the boxes and clean quilts. There was still a distance from where he lived to the school, and now that the weather was so hot, if the ice cream was exposed to the air, it would probably melt into water before reaching the school. That way, it would lose the cold and delicious taste that ice cream should have.
"Alang, why did you put the ice cream in the quilt? It's already hot enough, aren't you afraid of melting the ice cream?"
Yun 'er asked doubtfully.
Ang Lee looked at her with disdain and said, "If you put it in a wooden box filled with quilts, the ice cream won't melt. If you put it in your hands, it will melt quickly. You will know later. Men, carry the box away and go to the school. "
Because it wasn't too far away, Ang Lee led everyone to the school on foot and quickly entered the school.
The teachers had just finished class. When they saw Ang Lee coming in person, they hurriedly came out to welcome him. In fact, Ang Lee had been around recently, so they wouldn't deliberately put down their work to welcome him. But when they saw Ang Lee after class, they naturally had to welcome him.
"Teachers, you have worked hard. I am here to reward you. There are delicious things in this box. Let's go to the office."
Ang Lee walked to the office at the back.
"Assistant Minister Li values the school so much. It is really our blessing!"
The teacher sighed.
Ang Lee smiled and said, "Education is the foundation of the country. It is a century-long plan. It is natural for me to value education. Come, try the freshly baked ice cream."
His subordinates opened the wooden box and revealed fifty ice cream inside. Because the protection was done well, the ice cream basically didn't melt and looked very appetizing.
"Teachers, take one each. The rest will be given to the best students."
Ang Lee said.
More than a dozen teachers thanked him repeatedly and took one ice cream one by one. At first, they were a little hesitant, but after a while, they began to eat.
"Alang, these ice cream really didn't melt at all! The quilt is really useful! "
Yun 'er said in surprise.
"That's natural. The quilt has the function of keeping warm. If something hot is placed inside, it will still be hot after a long time. If something cold is placed inside, it will still be cold after a long time. Do you understand, little fool?"
Ang Lee joked with a smile and completely ignored the teachers in the office.
Yun 'er nodded as if she understood and took one to taste. Anyway, Ang Lee wouldn't blame her.
The teachers ate a few mouthfuls and immediately felt very comfortable. They said it was delicious and repeatedly thanked Ang Lee for his gift.
"After so many days of teaching, there should be the best students in each class! Find the best students in each class and reward them with ice cream. "
Ang Lee ordered the teachers.
"Yes, Assistant Minister Li."
Halfway through their meal, the teachers hurriedly went to their respective classrooms and found the best and most hardworking students.
