Encounter Qin Shihuang on a deserted island

Chapter 13 Where did you get the fine salt? !
The crystal grains on the sashimi are full of various flavors that stimulate the taste buds.

The First Emperor was shocked: "What is this?!"

"Pepper or something."

Chang Yu didn't know what it was, so he just fiddled with it from memory, and the seasoning was pretty good.

"pepper?"

The first emperor wanted to come to a jar filled with crystal grains. Wherever there was pepper in it, it looked like tiny grains.

Looking at the granules in the jar and recalling the pungent taste in his mouth, Shi Huang was immediately dumbfounded.

Even the chef of Qin Palace can't make this kind of taste with just one thing.

There are not many seasonings nowadays, salt is the main taste, and the others are relatively monotonous.

Not to mention the seasonings that tasted at this moment, with various complex flavor combinations that do not conflict.

Some are spicy to stimulate the taste buds, and some are salty and obviously contain salt. I'm afraid I can just abandon the salt and use this seasoning!

Salt is very important to the human body, and it is the most basic economic lifeline of a country.

If there is no salt replenishment, the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty who are marching and fighting will be weak because of the lack of salt replenishment.

How can you defend your home and country if you are too weak to raise your weapons?

It’s not surprising that Chang Yu can make salt. There is a simple refining method here at the seaside. It may be magical to make a salty seasoning!
If you can master the refining method, you can completely abandon carrying a large amount of salt when marching, so you can only use this pepper powder!
Today's salt refining methods are not complicated but not simple. Many salts are hard to carry or have a strong salty taste.

They ate and drank with Chang Yu these days, but they found that the taste was just right. They thought it was because of their cooking skills, but they didn't expect that the seasoning was also a part.

"Ah bad!"

Chang Yu suddenly screamed, interrupting Shi Huangdi's infinite reverie.

"What's the matter?" With the sashimi stuffed in Li Si's mouth, he was also lamenting the complexity of the seasoning.

"I was stupefied by you when I got up this morning," Chang Yu glared at Wang Ben, "I even forgot to brush my teeth!"

"Brush your teeth?" Shihuang was taken aback, and silently put down the sashimi in his hand: "You can still brush your teeth here?"

As the king of a country, doesn't it make sense to brush your teeth?

But this is an extraordinary time, and it is not easy for him to ask Li Si and Wang Ben to brush his teeth.

"Is it nonsense to eat without brushing your teeth?!" Chang Yu was too lazy to pay attention to them.

Toothbrushes are made of fine bristles, toothpaste is mixed with tree sap and charcoal, and the salt extracted from the mixing point can clean the food residue in the mouth well.

"Can I have a toothbrush?" Shi Huang silently stepped up and held out his hand.

Chang Yu gave it to him casually. After making a lot of it, he had to give it to him. After all, this kind of toothbrush is not very durable and needs to be replaced frequently.

When Chang Yu put on toothpaste for him and sprinkled salt on the toothpaste, Emperor Shihuang grabbed Chang Yu's hand: "What is this?!"

"Salt!"

Chang Yu frowned, shook the emperor's hand, and silently took two steps back to avoid him.

"Salt?!"

The first emperor turned pale with fright, staring blankly at the tiny particles that fell on the toothpaste.

His exclamation drew Li Si and Wang Ben over, and they were also shocked when they saw the crystal particles on the toothpaste!
Finely into the grit.

White as pearls.

This is fine salt!

This is by the sea, and the salt is, of course, sea salt.

The sea salt in my impression is as big as a fist. Why is there such a fine salt? !
The method of extracting salt is simple to say but complicated to do. Ordinary people simply cannot afford such fine salt.

Those who can use coarse salt must have a good family background.

For example, only those with royal power, wealth and so on have the capital and qualifications to use fine salt. The first emperor also used fine salt.

However, the fine salt in front of him at this moment is far finer than the fine salt he used, and it is obviously more pure!
This uninhabited deserted island can actually produce fine salt, which really shocked the first emperor and his eyes with red eyes!

The first emperor held up the toothpaste trembling in his hand: "Young man, are these fine salt?"

"hold head high!"

Chang Yu seemed to be looking at a fool, and he didn't want to pay attention to them with a look of contempt.

Never seen any salt?
To say that they came from the mountains is to overestimate them, maybe they are not savages from Shennongjia!

Involuntarily, Chang Yu took a few steps back, so that he could run away if they went crazy.

Wang Ben who was beside him was a little excited, and asked in a trembling voice, "Where did you get this fine salt?"

If you can master such a fine salt, you will be able to vacate the place where the salt is placed to store weapons when marching and fighting!

"It is extracted from seawater, but it can be used, and the taste is not very bitter." Chang Yu said disapprovingly.

The sea salt that has just been refined is not salty at all but bitter.

After several follow-up studies, the bitterness was finally suppressed and used.

"By the way, look at how excited you are."

He pulled out his toothbrush and pointed to the two large tanks by the sea.

"The vat on the left is full of fine salt. If you like to jump in and take a bath, I won't tell you."

If it can calm them down, sacrificing a pot of salt is nothing, anyway, the current fine salt is still enough.

"There are two large jars of fine salt!"

Shi Huang's toothbrush fell to the ground in his hand.

Wang Ben and Li Si walked over tremblingly.

"I'll be good!"

Open the lid of the large tank, and you can see that it is full of fine salt grains that are as fine as sand grains. Wang Ben and Li Si fell to the ground and they were all stupid!
The First Emperor also ran over with excitement, and then fell down dumbfounded and laughed foolishly by the vat.

"The salt grains in this large vat alone are enough to sustain an army of [-] for half a year."

Wang Ben's facial expression was twitching, obviously because of uncontrollable excitement.

"With this crock of salt, I can fight the Five Kingdoms again after half a year of marching and fighting!"

"I can extract fine salt from seawater, but I don't see any extraction tools."

Li Si turned his head to look at the First Emperor in a daze: "Your Majesty, whether he likes it or not, even if he wants to be tied up, he will be bound to Daqin!"

Chang Yu stood not far away, looking at the three of them very strangely: "Could it be a savage?"

Can a jar of fine salt surprise you like this?
Forget it, leave them alone.

After brushing your teeth and washing your face, it's time to eat sashimi!
I have to say that the improved pepper powder has a more exciting taste, and it is even more amazing when paired with the oyster sauce extracted from oysters!
Although the taste is good, it will be greasy if you eat too much. It should be because there is no oil?
There is no peanut oil, but there is animal oil. If you use the kind that can be used to fill sashimi, you must be a fool!
At least Chang Yu couldn't accept it, the smell was too greasy, and there was a kind of animal smell that was not heated.

After I really can't eat it, I dig out the sweet potato wine I brewed in the field, and it's absolutely delicious to take a sip!

After drinking a few sips of soju, I went back to bed and lay down. Although this morning was rather annoying, I enjoyed it very much.
