After many rounds of training, these salt officials were finally familiar with the salt-making method.

Qiushou and Tian Feng looked at each other, then whispered to Zhao Yun.

Liu Chen could guess that they definitely wanted to monitor the salt officials 'every move to prevent the salt production method from being passed on privately.

Looking at the excess materials on the ground, Liu Chen decided to make the soap as well.

When they heard that Liu Chen wanted to make cleaning products, everyone was shocked!

They really couldn't understand what was in Liu Chen's mind. Why were there so many strange ideas?

Moreover, every single one of them could be realized and had great significance to reality!

The minor official at the side quickly followed Liu Chen's instructions and took out the ashes of the wood and weeds that had been burned. This was the plant ash.

Then, he added more than double the amount of water and stirred it. After filtering the residue, he obtained a mixed liquid, which was also the soda solution!

The higher the concentration of the soda solution, the better the subsequent fermentation reaction. Therefore, by heating the soda solution to remove the water, the concentration of the soda solution was increased.

There was a very simple way to judge, which was to use the Egg Floating Water Technique. The higher the concentration, the higher the fear of floating.

The next step was to use animal fat for the soap reaction. Naturally, he chose the cheapest and most convenient lard.

The two sides were heated and mixed until the final dehydration reaction was completed. As long as it became very sticky, it was complete.

Then, he made the mold and poured the boiled soap into the container. After it cooled down, he took it out and let it sit for a while. The soap was finished.

"You can also add sesame oil, honey, and other things to turn the soap into soap.”

Liu Chen said to the official in charge of the Blacksmith's Academy," Remember, the concentrated soda liquor from plant ash cannot be stored in ironware. It must be stored in porcelain or glass…"

Just as he said this, Liu Chen suddenly remembered that he had not fired the glass yet.

"Your Highness, what is glass?" As expected, the official in charge of the smithing academy asked with a puzzled expression.

Qiushou and Tian Feng, who were beside him, frowned deeply and were still puzzled!

"Could it be Azurite?"

Qiushou and Tian Feng came to their senses and looked at Liu Chen in confusion.

"It's similar to glass, but glass will crack and explode when it comes into contact with hot water. However, the glass that this king mentioned can be used as food utensils and can withstand high temperatures.”

Liu Chen's words widened everyone's horizons and shocked them!

His face was filled with anticipation!

The eyes that looked at Liu Chen became even more adoring and exciting!

However, from Liu Chen's point of view, using glass as a food container was only one of its functions. There were many other uses.

Door and window glass, glass mirrors, glass greenhouses, and so on.

The most terrifying thing was that binoculars and other weapons of war could be made of glass!

"Your Highness, how do you fire glass?”the official asked in surprise.

Liu Chen smiled and said,"

"After a while, this king will write down the method to make it.

"Let's talk about the soap first. Just now, when the lard and the soda solution were mixed, the soap reaction was very difficult and needed to be stirred vigorously.

" If you can add alcohol, it can increase the dissolving speed…"

As he spoke, Liu Chen suddenly remembered. Could rice wine in this era be considered wine?

It seemed that he had to find a time to distill the high-alcohol white wine.

Alcohol required a large amount of food, and distilled liquor required even more food. Originally, Liu Chen didn't have such a large sum of money, but now, he didn't have to worry.

With alcohol, it could be used for disinfection and sterilization. Low-level alcohol could even reduce fever, making it more widely used in medicine.

There were also other uses. The use of high alcohol was still very wide.

Moreover, it could be used to make "perfume". At that time, it would also be a huge source of business and money!

After everything was said, Liu Chen asked,""Do you understand?"

"I understand, I understand! Your Highness is so knowledgeable that I admire you so much. Your concise explanation is so clear that even illiterate people can understand it!”

The official from the Blacksmith's Academy flattered him once again.

Everyone agreed!

They weren't people who fawned over others, but Liu Chen had invented the " Salt Making Method ", which allowed the Chang Shan people to have salt in abundance.

Moreover, it could reduce the price, which was beneficial to the country and the people.

The invention of the soap had allowed the washing products of the common people to be perfectly strengthened. This was also a feat that benefited the people!

"After the salt and soap are made, we can sell them and increase the income of Chang Mountain's finances.”

The sweet potatoes, potatoes, horseshoes, stirrups, and other items were all military secrets. Liu Chen would not spread them in a short period of time.

It wasn't that Liu Chen was selfish, but that the flames of war were about to start in the future. If this news spread, wouldn't it increase the strength of the enemy?!

"Yes, this subordinate will obey!" He Shou and Tian Feng cupped their hands and bowed.

Liu Chen continued,

"Don't set the price of salt too high. Just make it cheaper than the previous coarse salt. This will allow us to quickly seize the market.

"Soap requires pig fat, which is a little expensive. It can be slightly more expensive, but there can be a discount for the people of Chang Mountain.”

"Yes, this subordinate understands!" The two of them cupped their hands again.

After all the instructions were given, the soap had also cooled down completely. Liu Chen picked up a piece of soap and wiped it off, easily washing away the cement and other dirt on his hands.

Looking at Liu Chen's ten fingers, Qiushou, Tian Feng, Zhao Yun, and the others were shocked once again!

He didn't expect the soap to be so effective at cleansing. This was going to be an extremely important living resource!

"After mass production, the officials of Chang Shan, the soldiers of the military camp, the doctors of the medical school, and the children and teachers of the school will all give a batch of them for free.”

"Yes."

"Right, remember to send a pound of refined salt to the Yuan family for me. Send someone to visit them personally. You must 'thank' them properly!”

"Yes, this subordinate will obey!"

The expressions on everyone's faces became a little mocking!

He wondered what the Yuan Family would think when they saw the snow-white high-grade refined salt.

They controlled the flow of resources in Chang Mountain and wanted to use this to threaten the King of Chang Mountain.

Unfortunately, this wishful thinking had failed!

Not only that, Liu Chen's high-grade refined salt would be sold at a lower price throughout the country to seize the market.

Those great clans would probably cry to death, right?

Even though salt and iron were government businesses, they were actually controlled by these great clans. Liu Chen had dealt them a heavy blow!
