Utopia

Chapter 335: Salt is not a trivial matter

Yes, he was not wrong at all. One of his daughters, Susha Xinduo, who had always been idle, was ordered to assassinate a native general in the photo.

So, she looked at the staff in her hand and a waist knife. As for cold weapons, she stuffed four daggers in her boots.

Of course, since she was a priest, she did not need any type of hot weapons. Even if she could actually get a gun license and register at the police station.

But the police station...

She didn't want to go, especially when Ma Rong was one of the police officers and was most likely in the police station.

In front of him, she always felt embarrassed.

Although she did have some feelings for Ma Rong, no matter how she thought about it, it should not be that kind of feeling.

Unlike her brothers and sisters, Xinduo, who was considered the younger sister, was more timid and hesitant in terms of feelings. Even when she came out of the Chamber of Commerce and passed the door of the police station, she lowered her head and left Lengchuan City quickly.

But she didn't know at that time that the moment she stepped out of the territory outside Lengchuan City, her back was witnessed by Ma Rong, who had completed the case and successfully recovered the lost fake salt.

"Ma Rong?"

"Huh? What?"

"What were you stunned for just now?"

"No, I just felt a headache when I thought about the style of these private salt dealers who were unwilling to give up and had to sell the private salt. Even if they sold it to the natives, they shouldn't make this matter. After all, some money really can't be earned."

Looking at the bags of fake salt being transported to the truck, Ma Rong couldn't help shaking his head repeatedly.

Even if these private salt dealers didn't harm their own people, they shouldn't conduct underground transactions when the natives outside tried to attack the city.

[Recommended, the book is really useful, download it here, everyone can try it quickly. ]

Why? This is aiding the enemy.

Ma Rong didn't believe that any private salt dealer could completely keep the information confidential during the transaction with the natives. He even doubted that the private salt dealers would tell everyone about Lengchuan City in the face of interests, such as the gold, silver and jewelry offensive of the natives.

If such a thing happens, what is the difference between private salt dealers and spies who sell out national interests?

So he, Gorman Maron, a police officer in Lengchuan City, has the obligation to nip such things in the bud as much as possible.

At the same time, he is even more worried. Where does the salt of the private salt dealers come from?

Salt boiled from natural salt water alone cannot be eaten safely. Such salt can only be called coarse salt at most. Coarse salt contains more impurities and must be refined into refined salt before it can be eaten.

Otherwise... poor quality coarse salt or salt that has not been properly processed is equivalent to poison.

What will happen if you eat poisonous things? Is there any need to ask this?

Therefore, the Kingdom of Nigan implemented a salt and iron monopoly system to prevent similar things from breaking out. Idiots like those human states in the western part of the Old Continent who engaged in private salt trading and completely liberalized the production of private salt without knowing what the state-owned salt industry is.

This is a typical example of seeking one's own death.

The first nature of private salt dealers is to make profits. What kind of evil things can't they do under the pursuit of interests?

Profits are supreme, and conscience will inevitably become a worthless existence.

Therefore, in the human kingdom in the western part of the Old World, people generally do not have a dietary habit of eating salt or adding other spices. All kinds of meat dishes cooked in water...

Apart from anything else, even if Marong is a member of a vegetarian race, he can't stand a day without salt. What's wrong with these Westerners in the Old World?

If creatures don't eat salt, then wait to die!

Without salt for a day, it's a problem to stand!

And he also heard something that he couldn't believe at all, that Western humans in the Old World had to use two ewes that could produce milk to buy a kilogram of salt.

How to say it?

Maybe he, Marong, holding a fine steel sword, could kill a whole village of Western humans with one.

Salt cannot be used as an ordinary commodity, otherwise once there is a monopoly, it means the official arrival of the end of the world.

For this reason, he believes in one thing very much. That is, the Old World will be controlled by the Iron Fist Empire sooner or later. If you don't want to become a foreigner or slave of the Iron Fist Empire, the New World may be the last hope.

Compared with Maron's sigh, Xin Duo came to the outskirts of the Gaolsen Kingdom's army. But because these natives have suffered many times, Xin Duo found that they have been using 5 meters north of the outskirts of Lengchuan City, and then they are unwilling to move forward.

Obviously, the natives who have suffered are not that simple.

But...

Xin Duo also found one thing. These natives are accustomed to wrapping salt with a kind of oil paper, or some kind of salted meat that should be pickled as a must-have for marching.

But she has a question that she really hopes the natives can answer. Is it true that the salt grains will not be lost easily? She went out to do activities by herself, and she learned from Muying Company or other mercenary companies to make salt cloth or vinegar cloth by herself as a must-have for survival in the wild.

Yes, you heard it right and you didn’t read it wrong, salt cloth and vinegar cloth - a special item made by boiling linen cloth in a jar of concentrated salt water or vinegar, and then taking it out and quickly air-drying it.

Thanks to the fact that salt and vinegar, two condiments that cannot be carried without when traveling (the former is for life-saving and the latter for disinfection), are not easy to carry, after these two types of linen cloths that absorb salt and vinegar were obtained from some special workers who are not exposed to the light in the Old World, some merchants in the Kingdom of Negan have imitated the products.

Although it is not that the Kingdom of Negan does not have special salt jars and sealed vinegar bottles, these two things are not as portable as cloth strips. Moreover, in actual use, the low-priced salt cloth and vinegar cloth, which can even be made by yourself, only need to cut a small section with a sharp knife into a small pot, and add water to cook.

More importantly, the used cloth strips are not disposable products that can only be thrown away. After recycling and air drying, the cut cloth strips can be used to make detonator fuses or to clean up the scene.

Some special workers who are not exposed to the light, such as murderers, use the used cloth strips to clean up the crime scene, and try to destroy all evidence after burning the cloth strips.

Of course, if they are more experienced or professional walkers (especially some wilderness survival experts), they even know which bark produces salt and which fruit contains vinegar.

However, such guys are basically registered in the Kingdom of Nigan, and most of them work in colleges in various places as professors and lecturers.

Or in the army, they serve as full-time cooks to solve the big problem of food and drink for everyone.

After all, such masters are a problem no matter where they are placed...
