Chapter 42 I Wrapped the Salt
Chapter 42 I Wrapped the Salt
"Ding! The host signed in successfully!"

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for getting a supreme sharing card."

"Split card?"

Zhao Gang quickly entered the system to check.

A golden card was lying there quietly in the package.

The supreme sharing card, with this card, the host can get an additional one-thousandth correction value for each invention produced by him. (upgradeable)
Zhao Gang was stunned after reading it.

When did my hands become so red?
It seems that one thousandth is not a lot, but the key quantitative change determines the qualitative change.

Take papermaking as an example.

Although the additional bonus correction value is only 1 point, a thousandth is not worth mentioning.

But I produce tens of thousands of sheets of paper every day. As long as I have this card in my hand, I can gain dozens of correction points every day.

This is just one of them, if I make more inventions in the future.

Multiple overlays.

Thinking of this, Zhao Gang's hands trembled.

A better life seems to be at hand.

Lao Chen, who was waiting next to him, saw Zhao Gang's appearance and asked nervously, "Master, are you feeling unwell?"

"No...no!" Zhao Gang was a little embarrassed.

Old Chen nodded: "The master just needs to call the old slave if there is something to do."

After all, Lao Chen is ready to go out.

"Wait, let me ask you something."

"Master, please speak."

"Where does the salt we eat come from?"

Old Chen was a little dazed.

Asked strangely: "Master, why did you ask this suddenly?"

"Just answer me."

"The salt in Guanzhong mainly comes from Hedong and Bashu. What we eat is the salt from Hedong. Compared with other salts, the salt from Hedong well is of higher quality, and it is mainly supplied to the court and nobles. Ordinary people can only eat Bashu salt and some miscellaneous Salt."

"Mixed salt?"

"It's salt with a slight poison."

There was no sea around the original land of the Qin State, and the only way to eat salt was to rely on salt wells, but the salt produced from salt wells was blue in color and did not look good.Moreover, a lot of salt still has toxins due to poor craftsmanship.

Even the two salts specially supplied to the court in Hedong and Bashu have some strange smells.

In the hands of ordinary people, there is no such good quality salt.

When Lao Chen was in Zhao State, he was responsible for transporting salt to King Zhao, so he naturally knew better.

After his narration, Zhao Gang had a little understanding of the reality.

"What about Qi State? Qi State has the sea, so doesn't it have salt to eat?"

"The owner doesn't know that the salt from the seaside has a bitter taste and some fishy smell, so it has always been unpopular."

Zhao Gang was stunned.

The salt and iron franchise, which was controlled by the kings in the past dynasties, was so ignored in the Qin Dynasty.

Unlike paper, because of the slow production speed, Zhao Gang does not intend to reduce its value, and can only supply the noble class for the time being.

But salt is different.

This is essential for everyone's life.

If you don't eat salt, you will have no strength, and you will lose your strength and die after a long time.

And I have the supreme sharing card, if I sell the salt to every place in the country, how much specialization value will I get.

Thinking of this, Zhao Gang grinned.

"Old Chen, you have helped me a lot! Come on, help me to the kitchen."

"Master, you are still injured, just leave cooking to us."

"What do I do for dinner? It's an urgent matter. Help me quickly."

Seeing that Zhao Gang's attitude is so firm, Lao Chen can only bite the bullet and help him go to the kitchen.

In the kitchen, just after lunch, everyone returned to their daily production.

On the stove, the pot made by Zhao Gang is placed in the most conspicuous place of the stove.

"Old Chen, boil water in the pot, pour all the salt into it, and increase the heat to boil it for me."

"Master, what are you doing! It's a pity that good salt is ruined like this!"

Zhao Gang didn't want to explain too much, so he pretended to be mysterious and said, "You will understand later."

Old Chen saw that Zhao Gang didn't want to talk, so he stopped hesitating and quickly poured water and salt.

In fact, the purification of salt is not difficult.

You only need to evaporate the excess water, remove the impurities inside and leave the crystals.

It's just that Zhao Gang is too far away from the sea, so he can only use boiling.

Although the cost has increased a lot, compared with the salt containing toxins, the salt extracted in this way is considered superior.

Old Chen squatted on the ground and kept blowing the pipe, trying to make the fire bigger.

But unfortunately, it is really difficult for him to do this job based on his lung capacity alone.

In just a moment, his clothes were completely soaked.

"Looks like we need a bellows!" Zhao Gang said to himself.

Fortunately, the hard work paid off, and the water gradually boiled.

"Keep cooking till it dries up."

Although Lao Chen was a little puzzled, he probably understood Zhao Gang's intentions, so he stopped asking.

In front of the two streams, a carriage slowly drove over.

On the roof of the car, two black dragon flags fluttered in the wind.

Wherever he went, everyone was pointing and pointing, with strange expressions on their faces.

It was the first time for them to see such a flamboyant manner.

Inside the carriage, Hu Hai observed the outside through the window. Seeing the astonished expressions of everyone, the sense of superiority as a prince in his heart became stronger.

Those two dragon flags were his masterpieces. Even though everyone felt that they were a bit too ostentatious, he still resisted the crowd and stuck them on the roof of the car.

What's the reason?

Because that's what he wanted.

That feeling of being above everyone else.

Fusu in the carriage shook his head helplessly.

He came to Liangjian Mountain to discuss the next step of printing books with Zhao Gang. He didn't know where Hu Hai knew about this matter, so he made a noise and came together.

Fusu doesn't like this younger brother.

But as the eldest brother, it is impossible for him to have trouble with his younger brother. He is extremely helpless and can only let Hu Hai mess around.

Holding Qin Lv in his hand, he had arrived at his destination before he knew it.

"You two, you can get out of the car."

Fusu put down his book, got out of the carriage, ignored everyone's gaze, and strode inside.

Hu Hai stretched himself, glanced at everyone and said calmly: "Guard the carriage for me, don't let these untouchables get inside."

"Yes!" Facing this dandy boy, even though the captain had 1 unhappiness in his heart, he could only bear it in the end.

He could bear it, but the people around him couldn't bear it.
