Couldn't focus on the chapter cuz I kept thinking on how they made ice in the past lmao

They cut ice from frozen lakes

Ty also had to search that up. I guess you learn smth new everyday

They cut ice during winter when lakes are frozen, they keep it in a repository made of copper or wood and they store it there. It also acts like a freezer where they store fruits and veggies. I’ve known this while reading too many chinese historical novels.
