Seeing Ying Lan's appearance, Ying Zheng couldn't help complaining in his heart.

Your appearance is too fake!

And what you want for your father is your hypocritical appearance? !

What I want is your method of extracting salt, a method that can save Daqin from fire and water!

[Royal Father, Royal Father, don't make things difficult for your son anymore, if you are targeted, your life will be in danger! 】

Ying Zheng was speechless.

Being a father and not saying it is the method you came up with to raise salt, how did you kid get targeted? !

You kid is too steady!

While complaining, Ying Zheng suddenly seemed to think of something again, and his gaze changed slightly.

Since you are so stable, you can't just watch yourself get into trouble, can you?

As if thinking of a good idea, Ying Zheng's eyes fell on Ying Lan, "Lan'er, do you have anything to tell me about Da Qin's plight?"

Ying Lan shook her head slightly, "No."

[It's not that I don't want to tell you, Royal Father, it's because the method of raising salt is so eye-catching, I'm afraid you won't be able to grasp it! 】

Ying Zheng didn't pay any attention to these remarks, and his eyes fell on Ying Lan, "Lan'er, have you ever thought that if the Great Qin's combat power declines, its foundation will be shaken?"

"At that time, the Peacock Dynasty and the Xiongnu will send troops to attack the Great Qin. If the Great Qin loses, what will happen to you, Lan'er, as a strategist?"

After the words fell, Ying Zheng couldn't help but feel a little proud.

You brat is so steady, no one can believe that you can still sit idly by in the face of this situation!

Hearing this, Ying Lan frowned slightly.

[If the Maurya Dynasty and the Xiongnu were together, there might indeed be some trouble...]

Ying Zheng nodded secretly.

It's good to know the trouble, and quickly lend the method of extracting salt to my father, and my father will ensure that you are safe and sound!

【However, they are two big countries. It would take ten days to defeat them with the Snow Dragon Knight. 】

Hearing this voice, Yingzheng's eyes almost popped out.

ten days? !

Brat, are you kidding me? !

Those are two big countries!

Even Daqin may not have the confidence to face two such terrifying countries head-on!

Then Ying Lan also said, "If that's the case, my son will be very miserable, right? I'm so scared."

Looking at Ying Lan's calm expression, Ying Zheng was a little speechless.

As a father, I can't see that you are afraid...

Not sure about anything else, Ying Zheng knew that intimidation would not work.

Immediately, Ying Zheng's eyes narrowed slightly, and after thinking for a while, he continued, "These are all good, but the most regrettable thing for my father is the profit from the salt!"

"You have to know that the coarse salt brought in by the Maurya Dynasty can earn 400 million taels of gold a year!"

Hearing this, Yinglan's expression changed slightly.

[It’s so profitable, my dear, the coarse salt can earn 400 million taels a year, so wouldn’t I make a lot of money with this refined salt! 】

Hearing that Yingzheng is also striking while the iron is hot, "It would be great if we can find something that can replace it. Without the Maurya Dynasty making money from it, I think we can make more money!"

Hearing this, Ying Lan became more shocked, and immediately he stopped hesitating and said directly, "Father, my son accidentally got a solution earlier, I wonder if I can help Father..."

Hearing this, Yingzheng was overjoyed, but still looked surprised, "Really?!"

Ying Lan showed a reluctant smile, "I haven't practiced it yet, so I'm not sure..."

Seeing that Yinglan was finally shaken, Yingzheng quickly made a big deal for him, "Don't worry, Lan'er, if you can help Daqin, then the profits will not treat you badly!"

Ying Lan turned serious, "My son is the son of Daqin, and it is right to contribute to Daqin. It doesn't matter if it's money or not."

"Father Yiyi looks at it and gives it a [-]% or [-]% interest."

Ying Zheng:. . . . .

Chapter 117 Are you sure you want to use this seawater to extract salt?

Ying Zheng's mouth twitched slightly.

Your kid's acting skills are really good!

If I can't hear my heart, I really believe you!

But Ying Zheng remained calm on the bright side, just smiled lightly, "Lan'er is right, there is no problem with the distribution of income, it should be!"

Although his face was kind, Ying Zheng's gaze carried something different.

Ying Lan was also taken aback, "Father, do you ask for too much?"

Ying Zheng waved his hand, his expression still calm, "Not much, don't you still have [-]-[-]% for the whole Daqin? You alone accounted for [-]-[-]%."

Ying Lan:. . . . .

It is clear that the main problem now is to solve the problem of salt, and the problem of income is secondary. Ying Zheng does not care about this matter, but goes straight to the point.

"Lan'er, what method are you talking about?"

Ying Zheng's eyes fell on Ying Lan expectantly.

Even now, Yingzheng is still surprised by the statement that refined salt can be extracted with only seawater.

This is what Ying Lan said, so he chose to give it a try. If someone else said it, then Ying Zheng might just treat it as nonsense.

Regarding this complicated method, Ying Lan didn't intend to explain too much, but picked up a pen and paper next to her, "Father, wait a moment."

Ying Zheng nodded slightly, and then waited aside.

With the sliding of the brush in Ying Lan's hand, one character after another emerged on the paper.

After a while, Ying Lan handed the written paper to Ying Zheng, "Father, please read."

Ying Zheng took the paper and saw a long list of steps recorded on it.

For these steps, Ying Zheng naturally had a half-knowledge, and couldn't help muttering, "Can you help Daqin with this method?"

Ying Lan nodded, "As long as you follow these steps, you can extract salt from seawater."

Although he already knew the effect of this method, Ying Zheng still deliberately looked surprised, "Extract salt from sea water?! Lan'er, are you kidding me?!"

Ying Lan was not in a hurry to confirm, but frowned, with a look of uncertainty, "I also got this method by accident, and I'm still practicing it, no matter how long it takes, it should be effective in the past two days , why don't the father and the son go and have a look."

"Can you still see the effect?!"

Ying Zheng looked happy.

"Of course, my father will come with me."

Knowing that seeing is believing is the most convincing, Ying Lan didn't hesitate, walking in the front is starting to lead the way.

After walking through the palace and corridors for a while, Ying Lan brought Ying Zheng to a rather desolate back garden.

There are hardly any idlers around here, and one can tell that it has been deserted for a long time.

Ying Zheng could understand the reason why Ying Lan chose this place. After all, with this kid's level of stability, raising salt must be a place where even ghosts would not come.

Walking into the back garden, Ying Lan stopped in the middle of the open space and did not move on.

This made Ying Zheng a little puzzled, not knowing what this kid was going to do.

Then Ying Lan reached out and tapped on the tree trunk next to him, and there was a crisp "dong dong" sound.

Then, in the decayed room ahead, the head of a middle-aged man poked out. After confirming that it was Ying Lan, the man walked out of the room.

"The villain sees the son!"

That man was the head craftsman in charge of extracting salt.

Ying Lan waved his hand, then introduced to Ying Zheng, "This is my father!"

The leader of the craftsman was slightly startled. Although he had felt that Ying Zheng was an extraordinary person since he saw Ying Zheng just now, he knew that he was definitely an extraordinary person.

But when he knew Ying Zheng's identity, he couldn't help being secretly surprised.

The leader of the craftsman hurriedly cupped his hands, "The villain has blind eyes and failed to recognize His Majesty, please forgive me!"

Ying Zheng didn't care about these small details, "It's okay, let's get down to business."

After the words fell, Ying Zheng's eyes fell on the leader of the craftsman, "Should there be a result on the matter of extracting salt?"

The leader of the craftsman clasped his hands, "Follow the method given by the son, and the salt is indeed brought out. Wait a moment, sir, and the villain will go and get the salt."

As soon as the words fell, the craftsman leader stepped back quickly.

Soon he came back with a bowl of salt in a bowl.

Ying Zheng couldn't wait to take the bowl, and then began to carefully examine the salt in the bowl.

Taking a closer look, Ying Zheng was a little surprised, and couldn't help but ask, "Is this really the salt you just raised?"

Even Ying Zheng had to admit that the precision of the newly proposed salt was much purer than the salt that had been processed from the Maurya Dynasty before.

The leader of the craftsman cupped his hands, "Return to Your Majesty, this is indeed the salt extracted from the sea water. Bullying the king is a matter of losing one's head. A villain will never dare to talk nonsense!"

Naturally, Ying Zheng believed this statement. After all, when he heard the voice from Ying Lan before, Ying Zheng also guessed that the quality of the salt must be excellent.

The reason why I am asking this now is just to make sure.

And Ying Lan, who was at the side, looked at the salt, and naturally felt very happy in his heart.

[Not bad, this quality is all money! 】

[Wait to refine it later, and bring the purity of this salt to the extreme, and you will be able to reach the point of a refined salt. 】

And hearing this voice, Ying Zheng's eyes changed slightly, and he was even more shocked.

It's all so pure, how can it be mentioned more pure?

That must be the best salt!

Thinking about it, Yingzheng's eyes fell on Yinglan, "Lan'er, is this salt already the finest?"

"This……"

Regarding this question, Ying Lan was a little hesitant, and even murmured in her heart.

[If it is more detailed, it will surely cause even greater repercussions. At that time, many people will definitely pay attention...]

Knowing Ying Lan's concerns, Ying Zheng was not in a hurry, but said lightly, "If it can be more detailed, I can add more money."

Hearing this, Yinglan's expression changed. "Father was joking, my son has always regarded money as dung! If there happens to be a way to purify refined salt, then I will definitely contribute it!"

Hearing this, Ying Zheng nodded slightly, but he was too lazy to worry too much.

After all, in the current situation, as long as there is this salt, it will be fine.

As for the rest, that's for the aftermath.

On the other side, Ying Lan seemed to be thinking of something, but his eyes could not help but change slightly, "But father, are you sure you want to use this sea water to extract salt?"

Ying Zheng's eyes were firm, "This matter is related to the survival of Great Qin, that's natural."

Ying Lan frowned, "But what you need to carry this salt is the water from the border sea area. If you want to suddenly introduce a large amount of sea water without being noticed, it will not be easy!"

[Such a big move to bring back seemingly useless things, if it is someone else, maybe no one will care, but if it is the father, there will definitely be many people secretly investigating. 】

Ying Zheng naturally took Ying Lan's concerns into consideration.

But he was in no rush, he just replied indifferently: "No problem, I have my own plans for my father!"
