"Village Chief Jian Heng said that Peach Blossom Village doesn't lack salt!!”
After dinner, the trio continued to plot something in the room.
Although it was called a conspiracy, it was actually just to share what he had seen and heard in Peach Blossom Village.
Hence, Li Si told them the news he had heard from Jian Heng.
"That's what Village Chief Jian Heng said. I didn't have the time to ask Village Chief Jian Heng in detail before I left, so I'm not sure if this Peach Blossom Village has rich salt pans or a unique method of making salt.”
Compared to the first option, Li Si was more inclined to the second option. After all, they had seen everything during this period of time, including magical potatoes and paper-making techniques.
It wouldn't be surprising if Jian Heng had a new salt-making method.
Just like Li Si, Ying Zheng and Meng Tian were also numb to Jian Heng's matter.
"Tomorrow, we'll go ask Village Chief Jian Heng. If he really has a new salt-making method, it'll be a great contribution to Great Qin.”
The next day, the three of them came to Jian Heng's room with anticipation.
"Yo, what's going on with the three of you today?”
Looking at the three people with serious expressions, Jian Heng could not understand for a moment. Did these three people take the wrong medicine today?
"Village Chief Jian Heng, I heard from Li Fa that you said yesterday: 'Peach Blossom Village doesn't lack salt'?”
Only then did Jian Heng remember that he did mention this matter yesterday.
"Of course not. Our village not only has abundant salt fields, but also has our own salt factory. Every household has stored salt for a year.”
"A year's worth of salt
Even though Ying Zheng thought that he was already familiar with everything in the village, he was still shocked by Jian Heng's words.
Salt was considered a luxury even in Xianyang Palace. Every time Ying Zheng ate, he would not be willing to let the chef add too much salt.
In the end, Jian Heng told him that the salt in Peach Blossom Village was simply too much to eat.
"Then I wonder if Village Chief Jian Heng can arrange for us to work in the salt factory today?”
Hearing Li Si's words, both Ying Zheng and Meng Tian looked at Jian Heng with hopeful eyes.
Yo! Jian Heng looked at Li Si in surprise. He didn't expect that these people's minds would improve after staying in Peach Blossom Village for a week.
In the past, when Jian Heng asked them to work, each and every one of them was very unwilling at the beginning, but now they actually took the initiative to ask for work?
It seemed that the transformation was fruitful.
"Sure, but I originally planned to give you a day off. Since you're so proactive, I can't refuse, right?”
Jian Heng used a very flat tone to say the most annoying words.
However, he did intend to let these people rest for a period of time. After all, Jian Heng saw that they worked diligently, especially Brother Zheng. During this period of time, he worked part-time and actually got third place in the weekly exam.
This was already very good for them who had just come into contact with knowledge for a few days.
After Jian Heng finished speaking, Ying Zheng and Meng Tian both looked at Li Si.
Even though they had the same thoughts, since Li Si was the one who suggested it, who else could take the blame?
After that, Jian Heng brought the three of them to the salt factory.
"This is the salt factory."
When they saw the sacks of white salt, the three of them could no longer suppress their excitement.
Meng Tian grabbed a handful of salt and put it into her mouth.
When he felt the salty taste in his mouth, the eight-foot-tall man actually shed tears.
"It's salt, it's really salt.。Wuwuwu!"
He still remembered clearly that during the war to destroy Chu, the army lacked salt. Many soldiers had all kinds of illnesses. Many of his brothers did not die on the battlefield, but on the way to the war.
Looking at this big man actually hugging a handful of salt and crying, Jian Heng also felt somewhat inexplicable. What kind of stimulation had this child received?
Ying Zheng also grabbed a handful of salt in his hand and carefully examined it.
"The grains are very fine and crystal clear like snow. Even the quality of the salt specially supplied to the imperial palace is not as good.”
Li Si's hands started to tremble. As the Prime Minister of Great Qin, he naturally knew the importance of salt.
"Village Chief Jian Heng, how was this made? Why is the salt you make so bad?。。Dazzling…"
Li Si was so excited that he couldn't even speak. What was he saying?
"Well, the method is very simple. I just used my unique salt-making method.。。。。。”
The salt was originally extracted from the natural underground bittern. The production process was relatively advanced during the Qin Dynasty, but it would have been available more than a thousand years later.
The reason why Peach Blossom Village could store so much salt was mainly because of Jian Heng's system. The system had enriched the resources around Peach Blossom Village, which allowed Jian Heng to continuously mine.
"In fact, these methods can only sustain my small village. There is no way to make salt on a large scale here without the sea. If it was by the sea, I could increase the output of salt by about ten times.。。。。”
Before Jian Heng could finish his words, Ying Zheng and the other two already knew what he was going to say.
"Give it to His Majesty!"
