"Here, we only have two bags." The stallkeeper dragged two more bags and opened them for him to see.

After Meng Yuqing checked and confirmed that it was all saltpeter and not mixed with other stones, she looked at the chain again.

So the chain continued to go out and negotiate the price with the other party.

Although Meng Yuqing expressed his desire for saltpeter, the other party did not yell at the price, which was only a little more expensive than graphite.

After all, they think saltpeter looks better than graphite.

Lian didn't know what the two stones were for, and neither did the other party, so they were calculated according to the decoration price.

At this time, Ya and another orc also came over, Lian distributed a bag for Ya to hold, and they were about to leave.

Before leaving, Meng Yuqing looked at the orc guarding the booth and said, "We will need this white stone for a long time, and we will collect some every year. This black stone may not be used. We will replace it when it is used up. If you want, next year you You can take the time to take these things directly to our tribe and exchange them with us."

The orc who kept the stall originally thought that this was a one-off sale. After all, what use could these stones be?

The stone is resistant to storage and will not be damaged after a long period of time. Generally, it is difficult to replace it after changing it once. Not every kind of stone is like yellow stone.

The orcs keeping the stall showed excitement. Meng Yuqing's words meant that they could continue to make deals with this big tribe with this white stone in the future.

He looked at Meng Yuqing and asked, "Excuse me, how can I get to your tribe?"

Meng Yuqing looked at Lian and Ya, they looked at each other, and finally Lian walked out and said, "Walk along the river in that direction for about 20 days, and you will see a stone wall that is higher than a tree, and then you will come to us. It’s within the territory of the tribe, walk towards the stone wall, we have flying orcs who will patrol the sky, if you look up and see them, you can call them to explain your purpose.”

The stallkeeper nodded as he listened. In fact, it is very risky for a small tribe like them to go to other tribes to trade, but the environment near their tribe is indeed too bad.

If there is a way to make their lives better, they will all be willing to try.

Take these stones back, because Xuan has not come back, so he can only let Chain and Fang help him.

Meng Yuqing led the two of them to a corner with few people, looking mysterious, Lian was soon aroused by him.

Even Fang, who was obviously in a bad mood during this time, showed an expression of interest.

"Yuqing, what are you doing?" Lian asked Meng Yuqing who was holding a few pieces of saltpeter in his hand.

"Shh, don't ask, you'll know when I'm done." Meng Yuqing looked smug.

He let Ya light the fire to boil the water, and when the water boiled, he threw the saltpeter directly into the water and kept stirring with a small stick.

Soon the saltpeter disappeared. He looked through the space warehouse and took out a small fan made of withered grass and put it on another stone jar as a simple filtering tool to filter the water in which the saltpeter was dissolved.

Some broken stones and larger grains of sand were kept out.

After throwing away all these sundries, he crazily fanned the stone jar with his fan to speed up the cooling of the water in the jar.

After a while, some white crystals were precipitated from the poop in the jar.

He carefully collected these simply purified nitrates.

Lian and Ya watched him operate in bewilderment.

"Don't worry, it's not over yet." Meng Yuqing said casually.

Then he took out a pottery basin and a small pottery bowl from the space warehouse.

"Lian, go fetch two cans of water."

Although Lian didn't know what he was going to do, he did it anyway.

After the chain brought back the water, Meng Yuqing was ready with the stone pot full of nitrate.

"Pour the pots and bowls with water." Meng Yuqing pointed to the two pottery on the ground and said.

After pouring the water, he waved to the chain and teeth, "Come here quickly, I'll show you a treasure later."

Hearing what he said, both of them sat on the ground and stared at the pot.

Seeing that everything was ready, Meng Yuqing poured all the nitrate purified from the stone pot into the pottery basin filled with water, but there was nothing left in the pottery bowl.

With the stirring of the wooden stick, Lian and Fang's eyes gradually widened, looking at the pots and bowls in surprise.

Lian even stretched his hand over the clay basin to feel it, "It's cool."

Meng Yuqing smiled and said, "The next step is to witness the miracle."

The teeth and the chain have been completely surrounded, and both of their eyes are fixed on the clay basin.

!!!

"Bing!" Although Lian lowered his voice, he could still hear the shock in his tone.

Ya even reached into the basin and touched it, "It's really ice."

He looked up at the sun in the sky, and murmured, "It's summer now, and there is ice."

"Haha, we are no longer afraid of the heat in summer." Meng Yuqing happily took out the small pottery bowl from the pot.

In fact, he didn't expect to succeed in one go, especially he didn't expect the ice in the small pottery bowl to freeze smoothly.

"This ice, can I eat it?" Lian suddenly asked when he was still immersed in the joy of success.

"The ones in the basin are not good, but the ones in this bowl are fine. The water in the basin has been added with what is purified from that stone, that is, nitrate, so the ice formed by the water cannot be eaten, but the water in this small bowl has no nitrate added. It is purely made of low temperature to form ice, this one can be eaten.”

Meng Yuqing put the bowl back into the basin, and continued, "Later, let's cut some fruits and put them in the bowl, then put them in this basin, cover them with thick animal skins, and then we can eat frozen fruits!"

!!!

"I'll get the fruit right away!" Lian immediately stood up and ran towards the crowd.

"I'm going to get the animal skin." Yaya stood up and said.

The saltpeter to make ice can be used repeatedly, when Xuan comes back and he is making it for Xuan to see, Xuan will be very surprised.

When Ya and Lian came back, Lian was holding several small bowls containing chopped fruits, and Ya was holding a particularly thick animal hide, which looked like it was worn in winter.

Under Meng Yuqing's guidance, they put the small bowl in place, and then covered it tightly with animal skins.

The three of them just stood by the ice basin until night fell.

On the way, Meng Yuqing made several pots of ice with nitrate to ensure that the fruits would always have ice to keep the temperature low.

Seeing the people who had gone out come back one after another, Meng Yuqing lifted the animal hide, picked up a bowl of frozen fruit and said to Lianhe Fang, "I took this bowl, the rest of you two are your own." Divide."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for the two people to reply, he picked up the stone pot containing the salt with the other hand and ran towards Xuan directly.

Lian and Fang looked at each other, then shrugged.

Someone is coming back, so I don't have time to talk to them both.

When Meng Yuqing ran to Xuan with her things in her arms, Xuan was also looking for him.
