I'm not a genius in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 53
Wang Zi'an turned around and smiled encouragingly at him.The child was clutching the book and said with a flushed face.

"Brother Zi'an, can I—can I write what you just said in a book?"

Wang Zi'an was stunned for a moment, but he didn't react.

"It is the saying that the sharp edge of a sword comes from sharpening, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from bitter cold."

The little guy mustered up his courage, and his face flushed.Wang Zi'an couldn't help laughing, and reached out to touch his little head.

"Of course, if you like, brother Zi'an can help you write it in the book."

The little guy nodded excitedly when he heard it, and turned to get his pen and ink.Wang Zi'an inscribed on the little guy, and then left the house leisurely.

Coming out of Grandma Sun's house, passing through the long and narrow bluestone alleys, and standing on the street, Wang Zi'an couldn't help hesitating, hesitating whether to go to the Duke of Ji's mansion first, or to the Ministry of Industry first, and before he could make up his mind, he heard a voice from afar. Someone called himself.

"Zian—"

Looking up, it was Li Ke.

This white horse in Tsing Yi, with a sword hanging from his waist, with a bright smile on his face that resembles His Majesty Li Er, was stopping under an ancient willow tree and waved at himself. He was so handsome in a mess.Seeing Wang Zi'an looking up, he swung the saddle off the horse, threw the reins to the following guards, and strode towards Wang Zi'an.

"Zian, I'm looking for you everywhere! The experiment is successful, come with me!"

Li Ke grabbed Wang Zi'an's arm with excitement and said in a low voice.Wang Zi'an was a little confused by this guy, and shook his hand angrily.

"If you have something to say, don't talk about it - what worked?"

Li Ke didn't care what he did, put his shoulders directly, leaned over and said in a low voice.

"Refined salt! The refined salt has been successfully developed!"

Wang Zi'an pushed him away angrily.

"I'm so nervous, I thought what was the matter, it's just refined salt, what's so strange——"

Isn't that amazing enough?

Li Ke was just about to scold him, when he suddenly remembered this guy's attitude towards refined salt, and couldn't help but get angry directly.What else can I do, it seems that people really don't pay much attention to refined salt... But thinking of the huge profits after refined salt goes on the market, Li Ke's heart suddenly became hot again.

"Come on, come back with me to the palm palm eye to see if there are any gaps."

When the two of them walked to Zhuque Street, they saw groups of people fleeing in front of them. They frowned, looked up and saw two rows of people and horses passing by in front of them.

In the front row, there are uniform gowns with small sleeves, small-cut trousers, long skirts with big heads, curtains on their heads, swords on their waists, and horses on their bodies. They are all tall and burly, with an arrogant and domineering arrogance. Judging from their clothing and behavior, they are clearly not Central Plains characters.The most eye-catching is a woman guarded by the crowd, wearing a floral skirt, a brocade gown on her back, and shiny pearl shells on her shoulder sleeves, and her long black hair is braided into many fine pieces. Although she has a small braid on her head and wears a curtain on her head, she can't tell her face, but she looks like she is seventeen or eighteen years old in terms of body and demeanor.

The steed under his crotch is clearly an extremely rare sweat-blooded BMW, priceless.This is the first time I have seen such alien characteristics, Wang Zian couldn't help but take a few more glances.Perhaps sensing Wang Zi'an's gaze, the woman immediately turned her head slightly to look over.At this moment, a gust of autumn wind blew, and Luo Mu raised his head lightly. Immediately, the woman showed a shiny, delicate and flawless chin, which made people stare.

The woman on the horse snorted coldly and turned her head away.Wang Zi'an couldn't help being a little embarrassed, it seemed that he was regarded as a disciple.Even through Luo Mu, he could faintly feel the woman's disgusted gaze.Since the mysterious changes in the exercises he practiced, he found that his intuition has become more acute.

Behind this group of soldiers followed a group of heavily armed soldiers, each of them with sharp swords and halberds, and they did not come close, but stayed behind from a distance.Wang Zi'an couldn't help being curious, and turned his head to ask.

"what's going on?"

"The envoy of Tuyuhun was ordered to be expelled this morning because he contradicted the emperor. He should be leaving."

Expel the Tuyuhun envoy?
Wang Zi'an suddenly remembered that in the eighth year of Zhenguan, His Majesty Li Er sent someone to fight Tuyuhun because Murong Fuyun, the leader of Tuyuhun, seemed to be too jumpy. Can't take the look of others.

It seems that His Majesty Li Er is about to go to war.How did he know that the reason why this battle was fought was, to a large extent, because he defeated Changsun Hu and helped solve the military resources...

Naturally, it was not his turn to worry about the fights and killings. Wang Zi'an glanced at it and passed it, followed Li Ke around and went straight to the Shu Palace.

The Shu Palace is in Ruyuanfang.

Ruyuanfang is known as the sixteen king's house in later generations. Not only nobles gather here, but also princes gather here. Almost all the sons of His Majesty Li Er are here.Li Ke's mansion is very large, and there are two rows of guards standing at the door.Seeing His Royal Highness personally leading a handsome young man in, they all saluted immediately.

Li Ke waved his hand casually, threw the horse to the accompanying guards, and pulled Wang Zi'an inside.

Seeing Wang Zi'an with a face of reluctance, the guards at the door couldn't help but look at each other, wondering which prince's son this was, and he didn't even give His Royal Highness the face of Shu Wang.

Naturally, Li Ke didn't care about their little thoughts, and took Wang Zi'an through the courtyard to transfer ownership, bypassed the rockery verandah, and went straight to the backyard.It was originally a small independent courtyard, but the inside had already been vacated at this time, and people were sent to surround it loosely outside and inside tightly, with layers of guards and strict security.

Although Li Ke was extremely cautious, for Wang Zi'an, there was really nothing to see.It's just ordinary salt boiling and filtering equipment. The blueprints are clearly drawn, and there is no high-end technology. It's just a process.This kind of work is like separating a layer of window paper. As long as it is transparent, people in this era can complete it by themselves.

Seeing that Wang Zi'an confirmed that there was no problem with the equipment and process, Li Ke excitedly dragged Wang Zi'an to a room where some refined salt had been processed.Li Ke unbuttoned the bag and pulled it out for Wang Zian to see.

As white as snow, in terms of appearance, it is almost the same as that of later generations.Stretch out your fingers to dip some, put it on your tongue and taste it, the taste is still a little bit off.But there is no way, all he can think of is these simple processing methods, and he can't do anything about some impurities that need chemical additives to remove.He didn't know how to make those additives, and he didn't know what could be used to replace them. Therefore, in his opinion, it was extremely ideal to be able to process this kind of fineness.At least Wang Zi'an himself didn't taste the obvious bitterness, not to mention the coarse salt used by Uncle Gao, even compared with the so-called refined salt on the market, it was obviously more than a notch higher.
