Three days later.
In front of Cheng Chong's mansion.
"Brother Wenyuan!"
"Were you also urgently summoned by the lord?”
Guo Jia raised his hand and greeted Zhang Liao.
Zhang Liao also had a confused expression as he nodded.
"That's right. I was leading my troops to patrol the public security when I suddenly received a notice saying that the lord had an urgent matter to summon me!”
"How could I dare to delay? Naturally, I rushed over without stopping.”
"Speaking of which, Fengxiao, why did the lord summon us?”
Guo Jia waved his hand with a bitter smile.
"I don't know either!"
The two of them looked at each other. Under the guidance of their attendants, they quickly arrived at the inner hall.
Cheng Chong sat at the head of the table with a smile.
"My lord!"
Guo Jia and Zhang Liao both bowed.
Guo Jia hesitated for a moment before directly asking.
"My lord urgently summoned us. What instructions do you have?”
Cheng Chong smiled and clapped his hands.
A servant immediately brought out a plate.
The plate was filled with fine white crystals, sparkling and translucent like snow. It was beautiful and exquisite.
"This is?"
Guo Jia and Zhang Liao were confused.
"You'll know once you try it."”
Zhang Liao couldn't help but raise his hand and put a little into his mouth.
"This smell…Very salty…"
Then, he widened his eyes and looked at Cheng Chong.
"My lord, could this thing be salt?”
Cheng Chong smiled and nodded.
"How is that possible?"
Guo Jia's eyes widened in disbelief.
The salt of this era was pure coarse salt.
The particles were large and dull, like rubble picked up by the roadside.
As for the salt on the plate, it was as white as snow, exquisite and beautiful, making people unable to bear to profane it.
How could this thing be salt!
He quickly raised his hand and dipped it in his own water, tasting it carefully.
The shock on his face intensified.
"It is indeed salt."
"Moreover, it's fresh and salty in the mouth. It melts in an instant. It's simply a delicacy in the world.”
"It doesn't have the astringent feeling of the current official coarse salt at all.”
"Whether it's the taste or the color, it's far superior to coarse salt!”
He couldn't help but look up at Cheng Chong.
"My lord, this refined salt can be called the best in the world. I wonder where my lord got it from?”
"Naturally, I just refined it." Cheng Chong smiled.”
After promising Guo Jia to find a way to earn money, Cheng Chong had been studying fine salt for the past few days.
Fortunately, based on some of the fragmented chemistry knowledge he had in his previous life, he finally succeeded.
Although it was purely handmade and couldn't reach the level of industrial salt production in the future, compared to the coarse salt of this era, it was already a pure dimensional reduction.
Guo Jia's breathing quickened.
"Then, my lord, this subordinate dares to ask, can this refined salt be mass-produced, and what is the cost of mass production?”
"Mass production can naturally be done."
"Oh, as for the cost,"
Cheng Chong pondered for a moment.
"It should be similar to coarse salt."
"Fengxiao, I'll give you the method to make refined salt in a while.”
"With this thing, it shouldn't be difficult to earn money, right?”
Guo Jia finally understood why Cheng Chong was so confident.
Refined salt that could be mass-produced was superior to coarse salt in terms of color and taste.
The key was the manufacturing cost, which was similar to crude salt.
With this kind of refined salt, it was not difficult to earn money!
It could even be said that it was too simple!
He could guarantee that when the refined salt was promoted, it would definitely occupy the entire market of the Great Han Dynasty.
The coarse salt could only suffer a crushing defeat!
"Don't worry, my lord!"
"Refined salt is a money tree! With him around, we'll have money in our hands!”
"However, the profits involved in refined salt are too great. We definitely can't take it all by ourselves. We'll have to join forces with many great clans to split the profits.”
Cheng Chong nodded lightly.
He was mentally prepared for this.
Before they could develop, they could only compromise with the aristocratic families.
It didn't matter.
No matter how much they ate, one day, Cheng Chong would make them spit it out.
"Fengxiao, you are fully responsible. Under the premise of ensuring our interests, it is not impossible to give some benefits to those great clans.”
Guo Jia clenched his fists excitedly.
"Don't worry, my lord. I will definitely not fail my mission!”
"Once the refined salt sales network is established, the mining of the iron ore in the south of the city can be immediately put on the agenda.”
"It won't be long before the lord's troops and those Yellow Turban captives can be equipped with new equipment.”
"The strength of the army will definitely advance by leaps and bounds!”
Everyone laughed.
Cheng Chong said softly as if he suddenly remembered something.
"Speaking of those Yellow Turban captives, how's their training going?”
Guo Jia replied without hesitation.
"There are a hundred veterans with them. Their training is very effective.”
"Now, they've basically mastered the Divine Level Fish Scale Formation and have a considerable degree of combat power.”
"My lord, why don't you move to the training ground and inspect the results of their training!”
Cheng Chong nodded in agreement.
"Alright, let's make a trip!"
These few days, he had been researching the preparation of fine salt.
She was also tired of staying at home.
It was just the right time to go out and take a breather.
He also wanted to see the results of the training of these Yellow Turban captives!
