Mina squatted in front of the salt mine and looked at the black ore. She found it hard to associate the white salt with the black ore.
"Young Master, the salt we eat is from here?”Mi Na asked gently. She was now relaxed and did not feel as nervous as she did in the morning.
"Isn't it incredible?" Liu Feng sighed," In fact, this world is more complicated than you think. In my hometown, people can fly up to the sky and enter the earth. They can appear hundreds of miles away in a day.”
"What is it? How is this possible?" Nicole widened her eyes and mouth.
If it was something else, it would be fine. But flying into the sky and appearing hundreds of miles away in a day was a little scary.
"Hahaha…Nothing is impossible. Maybe we can do it in the future? Hmm, probably…"
Liu Feng smiled. He had zero industrial base here. It was a little whimsical for him to build small planes, excavators, and so on. However, he could try other methods.
"If it's a flying beast, could it be a bird beastman? But I haven't heard of bird beastmen in a long time.”An Li frowned in confusion.
Liu Feng blinked his eyes and said embarrassedly," The bird clan? A winged beastman?"
"Eh? Young Master, have you seen it?" Mi Na said in surprise," I haven't seen them for five or six years.”
"No, I haven't. The first orc I saw was you, Mina.”Liu Feng shook his head. He suddenly realized that his understanding of this world was too little. There were even bird clans and beastmen with long wings.
"They were the freest Beastmen, but unfortunately, when the frigid storm blew over five years ago, they all disappeared.”
Mina said sadly. Beastmen were very envious of the Bird Beastmen because they could freely fly in the sky.
"Alright, don't think about sad things. Now, let's start making salt.”Liu Feng quickly changed the topic.
If he continued to talk like this, who knew how many sad memories he would bring up. This was not a happy day. The beast-eared lady was still cuter when she smiled.
"Then what should we do?" An Li said excitedly. She was interested in some strange research. Recently, she had started pestering Nicole to teach her how to make sweets.
"Bring the tools in first!" Liu Feng shouted.
Immediately, someone ran to move things in. Soon, a large pile of things was moved in. Salt making sieve, hammer, linen, charcoal, wooden barrels, iron pots, and a stone mill for grinding wheat.
Then, the door was guarded by soldiers. The people who stayed in the house were all trustworthy. Every time Liu Feng had something to do or had a plan to set up, the door would be guarded. Even the roof would be guarded.
"Let's begin now!"
Liu Feng used a small hammer to smash the large salt mine into small pieces, about ten catties, and then poured them into the stone mill. As he added water, he made the stone mill spin with all his might.
After Mina saw this, she took the initiative to push the stone mill. She easily turned the stone mill until it squeaked. Even the cat orcs, who were not known for their strength, were stronger than humans.
After the salt ore was ground into powder and washed by water, it became a gray-black turbid water that flowed into the wooden bucket under the stone mill. After grinding more than ten kilograms of salt ore, it was a whole bucket of turbid water.
" This..." The people present could not understand this operation at all. They could not see the shadow of the salt at all.
Liu Feng took another wooden barrel and covered it with two or three layers of linen. Then, he poured the turbid water into it. Soon, the linen filtered out a lot of slag.
The muddy water in the bucket also changed color. It was no longer grayish black, but brown.
"Eh? The color has lightened." An Li quickly took out her notebook and started writing.
"The salt is in the water. The only reason why everyone can see that the salt isn't white is because there are too many impurities in the water.”Liu Feng paused for a moment before explaining to everyone.
Then, he picked up a wooden bucket and covered it with six or seven layers of linen. He poured the water in again, and the color changed again. It became a light brown and a little red.
"The current water is relatively clean. Most of the impurities have been filtered. The next step is to remove some of the toxic impurities from the water.”
Liu Feng held a custom-made wooden barrel, but it was funnel-shaped, and the lower part was pointed. Then, he took a few pieces of linen, wrapped the charcoal in it, and smashed it hard.
"Charcoal is a good thing. Not only can it be used for burning, but it can also absorb many poisonous substances.”
Liu Feng stuffed the wrapped charcoal into the funnel bucket, then put another bag on top, and then placed the funnel bucket on another bucket with a smaller diameter.
Then, he poured the water into the wooden bucket with a funnel. The water slowly flowed through the charcoal. This time, the water turned a faint green color and entered the wooden bucket below.
"The color has changed again." Nicole was also very surprised.
"The solution obtained this way is non-toxic and safe. Next, you just have to boil the water dry.”Liu Feng set up the iron pot and poured the light green water into it. Nicole started a fire.
"Is this enough?" Mi Na stretched her head out and looked at the boiling water in the pot.
"You'll see the salt later." Liu Feng chuckled. This was the salt-making method that he had seen when he was on Earth.
As time passed, the water in the iron pot was boiled dry, revealing a layer of light green crystals below.
"Is this salt?" Niu Ben's eyes widened. Why was it completely different from the salt he had seen before?
"This is called green salt.”Liu Feng shrugged his shoulders and picked up a piece of green salt. He touched it with his tongue. It was pure and salty, without the bitter taste.
Niu Ben directly picked up a pinky sized green salt and stuffed it into his mouth. Even if his face was wrinkled by the saltiness, he was reluctant to spit it out.
This was the salt he made himself. He didn't need to buy expensive sea salt anymore.
"Let me try."
"Salt actually appeared so miraculously? If he didn't give it a try, he would regret it.”
"I want to get some back to cook."
The salt merchants were afraid. No one would care about your high-priced salt.
