Xiaoyao Xiaojunhou

Chapter 669

Zhu Xiuyuan held the coarse salt crystals in the small bowl with two fingers, and spoke slowly as if talking to himself.

Yes, Zhu Xiuyuan’s goal is not just simple coarse salt.

That's too low-end and doesn't fit in with his noble status as a time traveler.

Now that you have it, you have to get the best!
He just happened to know a method that can directly raise the technology of making salt to the level of the "Republic of China" period. Going forward, it will be very difficult, because it is difficult to find relevant materials.

His words, almost talking to himself, are also the next plan.

After hearing this, Dong Shuzhen didn't feel anything, but she cheered up again.

However, Kou Wanwan is not as "ignorant" as Dong Shuzhen. She is very aware of the value and quality of "rock salt".

What did Zhu Xiuyuan say just now?
He actually said... After purification, it can be as good as rock salt!
That is rock salt, a very precious kind of salt, which is naturally formed, and the output is extremely rare, so it cannot be enjoyed by non-rich and wealthy families!

Like a thunderbolt, it flashed through Kou Wanwan's mind. Zhu Xiuyuan's words were simply too... how should I put it, was it bragging or confidence?

"Sir... are you serious about this? Is it really comparable to rock salt?"

Based on Zhu Xiuyuan's past achievements, such as divine thunder, martial arts, etc., these have all achieved great success!To a certain extent, the emergence of divine thunder and martial arts is tantamount to the creation of the world.

These achievements were too brilliant and gave Kou Wanwan great confidence.

Kou Wanwan almost subconsciously chose to believe Zhu Xiuyuan.

Since he said it can be done, then it can be done.

Salt is actually no less important than divine thunder and martial arts.

What's special is that according to Zhu Xiuyuan, the purified salt is comparable to rock salt, which means...

Furthermore, coarse salt is obtained from seawater, which is inexhaustible.

In other words, the output of this salt is huge, enough to be enjoyed by people all over the country.

It can even take care of three meals a day for people all over the world.

Kou Wanwan simply couldn't imagine that if all the people in the world could afford newly made salt that was comparable to rock salt like the powerful people in the past... That kind of scene and luxury might be the first time in history!
The significance of this matter is too important.

Not to mention the value embedded in it.

Although she didn't understand the term "economic value", she had a vague feeling that if the salt was completed, it would not only benefit the people of the world, but also bring endless benefits to Zhu Xiuyuan.

Even if "economic value" is not required, the benefits obtained from the imperial court based on this merit alone will be immeasurable...

In Kou Wanwan's heart, although she chooses to trust Zhu Xiuyuan, she believes that he will be able to do it.

However, the significance of this matter was too great and unbelievable, so she was a little unconvinced and felt slightly conflicted.

In fact, this situation is normal.

Because Zhu Xiuyuan's words and deeds were too shocking.

If Zhu Xiuyuan had told her before the divine thunder came out that there was such a thing, Kou Wanwan would have found it hard to imagine and would not have believed it instinctively.

Because this matter was completely beyond her knowledge.

"There is a high probability that it will succeed."

With two fingers, Zhu Xiuyuan gently pinched the coarse salt in the small bowl and rubbed it non-stop, just like playing with a toy he made himself.

"But it's hard to say what the final result will be. It depends on what kind of materials can be found on this desert island. Another point is that although I know this method, I have never practiced it, and the effect is unknown." Zhu Xiuyuan murmured murmured.

"It will definitely succeed. The slave family believes that Young Master will definitely succeed!"

Kou Wanwan was so excited that she leaned forward and grabbed Zhu Xiuyuan's arm with both hands.Kou Wanwan subconsciously chose to believe Zhu Xiuyuan.

But because the matter was too important, her remaining rationality believed that it was unlikely to succeed, which was somewhat contradictory.

But now, there was a hope in her heart, a very strong hope that Zhu Xiuyuan could succeed and purify salt that was comparable to rock salt.

"Hey, Kou Wanwan, why are you so excited?"

Dong Shuzhen's hair stood on end next to her, her eyes glaring, staring closely at her hand that was grabbing Zhu Xiuyuan's arm.

Then, he quickly rushed over, pulled Kou Wanwan away, and inserted her small body between the two of them: "Isn't it just Yan Ba? Are you so excited? You couldn't do it on purpose, right?"

Dong Shuzhen was suspicious. She had a small face covered in black ash, with two big bright eyes inlaid on it. She turned over and over, looking at Kou Wanwan up and down.

It seemed that he wanted to see through Kou Wanwan's tricks.

Zhu Xiuyuan held his forehead at the side, Oh my god, they started again... Can they stop for a while?
"Ma'am doesn't know."

Kou Wanwan didn't take it seriously and had no intention of competing with her for favors. She looked solemn.

"It would be a huge thing if the coarse salt purified by Young Master can be compared with rock salt. The importance of that kind of salt is comparable to that of divine thunder!"

Kou Wanwan is very serious and mysterious, and her tone is very contagious.

"Uh...husband, is what she said true?"

Dong Shuzhen looked at Zhu Xiuyuan, a bit like complaining, and more like consulting.

"more or less……"

Zhu Xiuyuan thought for a while, if this high-quality salt became available to the public, it would indeed be a very meaningful event, and it might even go down in history.

"Really...really?" Dong Shuzhen was a little confused. She didn't expect that Kou Wanwan was right.

After she was stunned for a moment, she felt a burst of ecstasy in her heart: "I knew that my husband is the most powerful, so what are you waiting for? Let's start right away!"

"No rush, no rush!"

Zhu Xiuyuan waved his hand and said with a smile: "According to my husband's estimate, the chance of success should be only half. Besides, this half bowl of coarse salt is not enough. You must have at least a bowl of it before you can continue to the next step!"

"Then let's cook it again! Kou Wanwan, what are you still doing? Come here quickly...filter the brine!" Dong Shuzhen was really impatient.

"Coming, coming!" Kou Wanwan immediately ran over.

The two women did not need Zhu Xiuyuan's orders. One held an earthen pot to fetch water from the brine pool, and the other set up a simple "filtration system"...

The two women were very motivated. They both wanted to boil the pot of brine as quickly as possible, collect enough coarse salt for a whole bowl, and then start the purification step.

In the heat of the day, with the two women laughing and arguing, the pot of brine was boiled dry, and half a bowl of coarse salt was left.

Together with the last time, it’s enough for a whole bowl.

"Husband, the coarse salt is enough, let's start purifying it quickly!" Dong Shuzhen came over, her little face flushed with excitement, and she had nowhere to put her hands and feet. She really couldn't rest.

"Young master, if you have any requests, just ask. The slave family will fully assist. If the salt that is comparable to rock salt is successful, the slave family will also have a share of the credit." Kou Wanwan also smiled.

"You go to the back of the queue." Dong Shuzhen was dissatisfied and stepped between the two of them, "I am the one who fully assists my husband, and you are second at most."

"Yes, madam!" Kou Wanwan didn't want to argue with her on this matter.

She just wants that kind of salt that is comparable to rock salt to be available as soon as possible.

Because this incident not only proved once again that Zhu Xiuyuan was extraordinary, but also proved that her original decision was correct. She had found a treasure.
