Chapter 561 561: Making salt, silkworms, and growing grain [ask for a monthly ticket]

According to the internal records of "Tiangong Kaiwu", salt production is roughly divided into six types: sea, pond, well, soil, cliff, and sand.Namely - sea salt, pond salt, well salt, soil salt, cliff salt and rock salt.Large-scale mass production is naturally based on sea salt.

It is then obtained by sun exposure.

The general steps are to use tidal flats to open up salt pans, and then introduce seawater into the salt pans during natural high tides. After continuous exposure to the sun and wind, the seawater in the salt pans will continue to evaporate and concentrate, reaching saturation to precipitate crystals, and the basic sea salt is obtained.

The biggest feature——

Produce!quantity!Big!
After all, seawater is such a thing...

Inexhaustible in a sense.

However, Shen Tang's land is not facing the sea, not to mention the sea water. If God is in a bad mood at any time, if she doesn't prepare for drought in advance, she may have to drill wells everywhere to get water to barely survive the storm. How can there be sea salt? .

Mineral salt is mostly eaten by folks, and the production process is backward. The coarse salt produced has a variety of colors and a strange and bitter taste.

As for the well salt?

The cost of this thing is too high. It is often necessary to dig a well to get salt, and it is often necessary to dig ten feet or even deeper to find brine...

The taste is slightly stronger than mineral salt, but the output is low and the cost is high.

certainly--

This is not a problem on Shen Tang's side.

The last thing she lacks here is artificial labor.

Wudan Warrior is really easy to use.

After all, Xun Zhen also served as a parent official, has rich experience in governing, and has also dealt with the salt industry, so she knows a lot about this aspect.He said: "If salt is produced, with the geography of Longwu County, only well salt and mine salt can be used, but—"

Even if the craftsmanship is improved, it is not clear how much the output can be increased, let alone a windfall from Shiwu.

Liao Jia asked, "Is Chi Yan not good?"

The so-called pool salt is lake salt.

He was born in a small country at the junction of the northwest and southwest of the mainland. There are many lakes nearby, and there are several pools of salt that are specially supplied to the nearby countries.At the same time, these saltwater lakes are also the fuse for the neighboring small countries to conquer each other, and they are places where military strategists must contend.

Whoever wins these places will be able to strangle the lifeline of the salt of the nearby countries, asking prices to pay back the money, it is very lively.

There are many salt mines in the northwest of the mainland.

Some lakes in the territory can also produce salt.

Xun Zhen glanced at Xu Quan who was yawning secretly.

Shaking his head, he said, "Not for now."

Because it is Tianhai Wu Xian who secretly controls Chiyan, several salt fields belong to the Tianhai Wu family in name.Wu Xian relied on Xu Jie's contacts and business contacts, and Xu Jie won the salt business in nearby counties through Wu Xian.Although the market share is not high, it is also huge profits.

If not, why is the relationship between the two so close?
What Xu Jie gained from Wu Xian was not only the promotion of his status in Tianhai, but also real profits!
Of course, Wu Xian also obtained from Xu Jie a small treasury that automatically makes money, spits out money, and makes money every day!
The lord can't take food from Wu Xian's mouth for the time being.

Liao Jia didn't mention it anymore.

"It doesn't matter what kind of salt it is, as long as it can make money. Actually, I have a bold idea about making salt—" Shen Tang gestured two fingers, "Be prepared with both hands! One, as Hanzhang said, pool salt The idea cannot be made for the time being, and there is still room for manipulation of mine salt and well salt. If the quantity is not enough, then the quality will win, and the gimmick of high-quality refined salt will be sold to the high-ranking nobles of Shiwu."

It is still possible to purify Shen Tang with coarse salt.

Everyone silently calculated the approximate budget, and the warriors headed by Gong Shuwu knew that they were coming to work again_(:з)∠)_
Chu Yao asked, "What about the second?"

Shen Tang: "Earlier, Ji Shou used the spirit of speech [Water Flooded the Seventh Army] to defend against the enemy, and used the energy of culture to produce water, but it lasted for a short time before turning into the energy of heaven and earth and dissipating. Come to think of it, he can also call out sea water with the spirit of speech? Could this seawater be introduced into salt pans to make salt?"

Liao Jia didn't know Shen Tang's ability to transform things.

I just think her idea is a bit whimsical.

The things evoked by the words spirit, be it water, fire, or wind, are essentially the external manifestation of the Qi of heaven and earth, and cannot be truly transformed into objects.If seawater can attract real seawater, the cost of making salt... can be described as non-profiteering!
Furthermore—

If you can, why not just talk about spiritual salts?
He thought that other people had the same idea, and when he glanced away from the corner of his eye, he found that except for Ning Yan, Chu Yao, Qishan and others were all frowning deeply, as if this whimsical proposal was really feasible.Liao Jia's heart trembled, suddenly felt a little inexplicably absurd...

Chu Yao: "I am afraid that only the Lord and Ling De can use this method. Whether it will be successful or not is unknown, but you can give it a try."

If it works, I'm afraid it can break through the price of salt.

Liao Jia silently wrote down the word "Ling De".

I don't know what is special between this person and the lord.

After all, it is only Shen Tang's own imagination to transform seawater into salt with words, and it is impossible to bet on it.

Well salt and mine salt are the key.

There are indeed several salt wells and salt mines that have been abandoned due to various reasons in Longwu County, and people still need to be sent to investigate.

Of course, if this path doesn’t work——

"...The output is too low, so we will go to Wenzhu to buy coarse salt, then purify the coarse salt into refined salt, and sell it at a high price to Shiwu." The whitest table salt slaughters the fattest Shiwu.Xungui wants to be different from ordinary people, so naturally he should use the best in every aspect.

Gu Chi said quietly: "If fine salt is easy to get, it is expected that it will not only be popular in Shiwu, but also be very popular in other parts of the pass."

Make money without being foolish.

Whose money is not money?
Shen Tang's head turned rapidly.

Gu Chi's proposal is also very good.

Buying a large amount of coarse salt from Xu Jie at a low price, refining the coarse salt into refined salt, and selling it to Xu Jie at a price several times higher is also a profitable business.Chu Yao knew what she was thinking, and silently wrote down this point - Longwu County is too poor, no matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat, as long as it is a way to make money, it is natural to catch it.After earning enough, sell the purification method to Xu Jie at a sky-high price...

One meat and two meals.

As for silkworm farming...

"I bought silkworm eggs from Wenzhu. The only troublesome thing is the leaves. Although Longwu County can grow mulberry trees, the growth cycle is too long. When they grow up, the silkworms will starve to death for dozens of rounds. And I have to make them Germany, there is no three-headed six-armed..."

This is very embarrassing.

Jiang Sheng: "If you want to achieve quick success, the only way is to speak."

"really."

Shen Tang looked at Ning Yan.

Ning Yan was a little confused for a moment.

"Please tell me, my lord."

"When Tunan came into contact with those students, he should also know that their talents are uneven, and not everyone has the possibility of becoming an official. Has Tunan thought about how they will make a living in the future?"

Ning Yan waited quietly for Shen Tang to speak.

In her opinion, even if she has no talent, she can still be a low-level official with careful teaching.

Just judging from the meaning of the lord, it seems that there are other arrangements.

Shen Tang's words were astonishing.

"Have you thought about letting them farm for a living?"

Ning Yan said: "Master, how is this possible?"

Let these students go through years of hard study and hard training, and then let them go back to inherit the traditional crafts of their ancestors?
"Why isn't it feasible?" Shen Tang couldn't see any jokes on his face, "In my opinion, it's very feasible."

This is the first step in mastering productivity.
