When Ying Zheng and Meng Tian were halfway there,
They saw He Chao on the way.
He Chao stood in the middle of the road with a serious expression, as if he was waiting for someone.
"Chief He, what are you standing here for?”
Ying Zheng's face lit up with joy as he walked over quickly and asked curiously.
"Oh, nothing. I was just patrolling the village.”
"Did the two of you visit my mountain stronghold again?”
He Chao turned around and saw Old Qin and Old Meng.
He asked with a faint smile on his face.
Ying Zheng nodded and said,"
"Yes, Old Meng and I went to the backyard of the mountain stronghold just now.”
When Meng Tian saw He Chao, she could not help but ask,"
"Chief He, what exactly are you hiding in the valley?”
"We wanted to go in and take a look, but the soldiers guarding the door wouldn't let us in.”
When He Chao heard this, he could not help but be stunned.
He didn't expect the two of them to go to the valley behind the village to take a look.
This valley hid the treasure he valued the most.
It was He Chao who planned to give it to the Ancestral Dragon first in the future. He would not allow ordinary people to approach him at all.
Even if Old Qin and Old Meng came from Xianyang and had extraordinary backgrounds,
However, He Chao did not intend to let them know the secret hidden inside.
Thinking of this, he snorted and said with a cold expression,
"Hmph, everyone has their own secrets, so I can't tell you guys yet.”
Hearing this, Ying Zheng felt a little embarrassed. He coughed a few times, nodded and said,"
"Uh, I understand. Since Chief He doesn't want to say, then we won't ask!”
After he finished speaking, Ying Zheng was afraid that Meng Tian would be meddlesome, so he gave him a look.
Meng Tian had wanted to ask a few more questions.
But after seeing the look in Ying Zheng's eyes, he could only shut his mouth gloomily.
The reason why He Chao didn't say anything about the things in the valley was because he was afraid that he would die.
It was because the things inside were too important.
It was not an exaggeration to say,
If the things in the valley were exposed,
It would definitely cause a sensation that was no weaker than paper.
That's right, He Chao had planted a few hundred acres of sweet potatoes in the village.
He also built a modern steel factory.
These things were all prepared by He Chao to present to the Ancestral Dragon.
He Chao wouldn't even let ordinary people see it.
Therefore, even if Meng Tian took the initiative to ask,
He Chao also rejected them directly.
Creak! Creak!
"Push harder!"
"Be careful, don't spill it!"
At this moment, just as Ying Zheng and Meng Tian were feeling awkward,
A group of villagers pushed a dozen wooden carts over.
Each cart was filled with bulging sacks.
Behind the cart were several villagers pushing it excitedly.
Judging from the joyful smiles on the faces of every villager,
There was definitely something good in the sack.
"Hello, Fort Master!"
" Hello, Fort Master!!"
……
When the villagers pushed the cart past He Chao,
They all greeted him with respect and admiration.
Everyone was full of smiles and respect for He Chao.
He Chao nodded with a smile and returned the greeting.
"Chieftain He, what are these villagers carrying in their carts?”
After the villagers pushed the cart away,
Ying Zheng could no longer suppress his curiosity. Looking at He Chao, he could not help but ask,"
"Haha, there's one on the ground.”
After saying that, He Chao pointed at a white thread on the ground and said proudly.
Hearing this, Ying Zheng looked in the direction of He Chao's mouth, and his eyes immediately lit up.
There was a pile of fine white sand on the ground.
Under the sunlight, it looked especially dazzling and delicate.
That's right, this was the refined salt produced in He Chao's villa.
When the villagers were pushing the cart,
He accidentally spilled it on the ground, leaving a thin line on the ground.
"This…this is salt?"
Seeing the refined salt left on the ground, Ying Zheng's eyelids twitched.
The reason why Ying Zheng wasn't sure was that…
It was really because the purity of the salt that the common people ate in this era was not high.
There were also substances of other colors mixed in.
Even if the well salt eaten by the nobles had been purified,
There was also a faint brown color.
It was the first time he had seen such snow-white salt.
"This salt is actually whiter than well salt?”
When Meng Tian saw the salt on the ground, she lost her composure.
She subconsciously squatted down.
Then, he dipped his finger into it and sucked on it.
In the next second, a pure salty taste spread in his mouth.
Meng Tian's eyes instantly widened!
The taste of the salt was beyond his imagination!
After all, even the salt that Great Qin's nobles ate tasted bitter.
This was the first time Meng Tian had tasted such pure salt.
"This salt doesn't taste bitter. It's amazing!”
After smacking her lips twice, Meng Tian's eyes lit up.
He couldn't help but exclaim.
Hearing this, Ying Zheng's heart trembled.
He also dipped his finger in some salt and put it into his mouth.
"Hmm, the taste is really pure. It tastes better than the salt I've eaten before!”
Immediately after, Ying Zheng thought of something. He looked at He Chao in shock and asked,"
"Chief He, where did you get this salt ingredient?”
"Why is the color and purity of this salt so pure? There are no impurities at all?”
