The salt used in Heishui City was coarse salt, even the Huang family was the same, and they were all purchased from outside.

As for the salt making by himself, Hei Shui City never thought about it.

Because the salt making process is passed down from generation to generation by craftsmen, it is equivalent to a family heirloom, and outsiders cannot know it.

Ruiyang City has its own salt making craftsman, but the craftsmanship is a world of difference from the fine salt that Ye Xuan exchanged from the faith value store.

Coarse salt is not cheap at all, let alone fine salt. It is no wonder that the barbarians just left, and the businessman Gao Huayang immediately arrived in Heishui City and could not even wait for a winter.

However, if you want to make salt, the most important thing is one problem: raw materials!

Whether you can make salt depends on whether God gives you face. This raw material cannot be made by hand.

After asking, Ye Xuan learned that there was salt land in his territory.

Geographically speaking, it does not fall within the jurisdiction of Heishui City, but it belongs to Ye Xuan's territory. It is located in the northwest of Shaqu Village among the six villages, close to the periphery of the blue mountains.

Without saying a word, Ye Xuan immediately led his personal guard to check it out and called Pei Qian, the director of the Department of Housing, who was a native native and knew very well about the surrounding situation.

Although it has already begun to winter, the large wall of the blue mountains has greatly reduced the power of the northwest wind, and the impact on this land is not too great.

You should know that many places north of Hei Shui City have already frozen, and Ye Xuan had to secretly sigh that this side is still favored by God.

The group rushed straight to the destination. As the news said, there was indeed a large piece of salt land, which looked like a rocky hill, and almost every stone had crystals similar to snowflakes on the surface.

Ye Xuan went directly to a nearby highland and visually measured the area of ​​the salt ground, which was about half a football field, and there seemed to be a black hole in the center.

Is this... salt well?

Ye Xuan took a deep breath and suppressed his inner excitement. If it was really a salt well, it would be amazing.

You should know that in ancient China, just a salt well would be enough to make the people in the area rich for a hundred years. What's more, the formation of salt wells would have to have salt veins, and the wealth it contained was simply unimaginable.

Could it be that Hei Shui City holds Baoshan without knowing it?

This is naturally not the case!

According to Pei Qian's explanation, there was actually no salt land before, but this salt land appeared after the abnormal movement of the blue mountains.

However, the area of ​​salt land was very small at that time, and it was neither in the jurisdiction of Heishui City nor in the jurisdiction of Ruiyang City.

Although it belongs to the Great Shang Dynasty, it is a 3-no-door area. Even the nearest Shaqu Village, there are basically no villagers coming here.

Without the skill of making salt, you can't eat this meal!

Besides, natural salt mines are toxic, contain a variety of impurities, and even damage arable land. Over time, no one cares about it.

If Ye Xuan hadn't mentioned it, I'm afraid no one would have thought of it.

Fortunately, I was thinking about how to open source and understand it carefully. Otherwise, wouldn’t I miss this treasure mountain?

Ye Xuan looked at the salt field, his eyes were hot, and he turned around and said to everyone: "Dig a few earth stoves immediately, and then find a few pots. You also need to prepare firewood and water."

Everyone looked at each other but there was no objection. Immediately, a few personal guards headed towards Shaqu Village, where there should be a pot.

Several other guards found a suitable location and dug up the fire pit.

"Master, are you hungry? We don't have food with you, so why don't Lao Dan and I go and cook some wild game?" Zhao Yun saw that he was going to bury the pot and make rice, so he touched his stomach. He was indeed a little hungry and said immediately.

"Yes, yes, let's move faster, we can definitely eat within an hour." Shan Yu quickly patted his chest and agreed. It was rare to have a chance to show it. Hunting is his strength, so he has to set off when he starts to fuck the guy.

"You two are quiet, who said you want to have a meal?" Ye Xuan was speechless about these two foodies. The first big eater competition in this world was between them.

After a draw in the competition, the two of them changed to a competition.

In the end, they shook hands and made peace with each other because they vomited at the same time, but they seemed to have found a confidant. Now the relationship between the two is very good.

"Master, it's not about eating, why do you have to dig a hole and find a pot?" Not only were these two guys confused, but even the others were also confused.

"This city mainly makes salt!" Ye Xuan said calmly.

"City Lord, you can still make salt?" Pei Qian, who was accompanying him, was shocked on the spot.

If you have salt and don’t have skills, everything will be useless!

It has salt and craftsmanship, which symbolizes inexhaustible wealth!

How could Pei Qian, the former financial officer, the current director of the household department, manage the money bags in front and behind, not knowing that it is powerful?

"Yeah, I know a little bit."

Ye Xuan nodded calmly. Although he was not very familiar with salt making, he had taken chemistry classes before.

Isn't it okay to dissolve salt, sodium chloride, dissolve in water, filter, steam and cook?

Fortunately, I didn’t return this knowledge to the teacher!

Shaqu Village is not far from here, and not long after, the personal guards brought a pot back, and then cooked one by one under Ye Xuan's instructions.

The first earth stove creates a fire, and at the same time, put a small bowl of water in the pot.

Ye Xuan personally took out a small piece of stone full of white crystals from the salt field, first knocked it into pieces, then threw it into the first pot, folded a small wooden stick and started stirring.

There was not much water in the pot, and boiling water vapor soon emerged.

There was no filtering utensil on site, Ye Xuan cut a large piece on the hem of his clothes, spread it into the second pot, and then quickly poured the liquid boiled in the first pot into it.

Then carefully hold the gravel with cloth, slowly lift it up, allowing the liquid to penetrate through the gap.

Ye Xuan placed the second pot on the second earth stove, lit the fire, and continued to slowly stir it with a small wooden stick.

As the liquid evaporated, a layer of white and thin things soon appeared in the second pot. Ye Xuan stretched out his finger and pointed it gently, and then put it in his mouth.

Everyone present watched Ye Xuan's every move from beginning to end. When they saw the white and thin thing, they all showed shock.

The fine salt sold in Huimin Grocery Store in Heishuicheng is not unfamiliar with it at all, and it is very similar to what you see in front of you.

"City Lord, these... are these salts?" Pei Qian swallowed his saliva and was so excited that he even stuttered his words.

"Come on, try it!" Ye Xuan gave up his position and raised his hand and said.

Pei Qian immediately rushed forward in a hurry when he heard this, stretched out his finger and wiped it hard, put it in his mouth without hesitation. His facial features were distorted, but his expression seemed extremely excited.

"Salt is salt, really salt."

The others couldn't help but be curious and immediately went to taste it in person. In the end, they were like Pei Qian and were numb all over.
