Heavenly Dao Formula

Waiting for the gap arranged by Xia Fan, Kong Xuanzi leaned against the hostess and said in a low voice, "Master Chi, why didn't you say it directly at the beginning? That is obviously an excellent opportunity."

In the past five years, he accompanied the hostess to explore many cities, and the number of times he met the local chief official was only a handful. Even if he saw it at the expense of a few dollars, he had almost no chance to identify himself. Because the attitude of the other party is not clear, it is necessary to rack your brains just to test each other. Conversations often go smoothly when you pretend to be a big businessman or a family member, but when you mention a monster, the progress becomes extremely difficult, let alone marriage. Kind of thing.

Obviously in the age of Penglai's prosperity, the demon could still coexist peacefully with people, and the favor of the dragon was a good thing most people couldn't ask for.

"I--I think this kind of big event really can't be hasty." Blazingly replied, "On the surface, he does have no prejudice against demons, but no one knows what he actually thinks."

"What's in my mind, I can understand it when we get along day and night..."

"Are you looking for your husband-in-law or me?" Chi glared at the attendant.

Kong Xuanzi closed his mouth wisely.

"In fact, if you think about it, we don't know anything about him, don't we?" Chi embraced his hands and said, "This person's birth, life, background...Why did he fall out with the Privy Council, and how he was appreciated by the princess. I don’t even know if he has a marriage or a marriage contract. This kind of thing... it’s better to observe for a while."

That's not what you said when you decided to leave Penglai Island.

Kong Xuanzi was slandering in his heart. At that time, everyone had not expressed concern, but you were not confident that no one could refuse your proposal and this honor. Even if the other party is already married, it's a matter of divorcing and remarrying.

But this bit of resentment was quickly left behind by him.

After all, the outside world is very different from what everyone thinks. In five years, the patron may have suffered more setbacks than in the past 100 years. After experiencing all kinds of shocks, she can persist until now... It is not easy for her.

As a person raised by the dragon, no matter what decision Chi makes, Kong Xuanzi will support her.

Chi looked at the crowds on the street in a daze.

She suddenly remembered what Xia Fan had said, and after hesitating for a moment, she tried to untie the cloth strip wrapped around her head.

Along with this movement, apart from opening Juanjuan's hair, there is also a pair of bifurcated velvet horns-this pair of obtuse horns shaped like velvet is undoubtedly much more eye-catching than the features revealed by the eyes.

Then, she crossed the gate of the courtyard wall and stood in front of the stone steps of the bureau.

Soon someone noticed the strangeness above the head.

This discovery spread like a trickle, and more and more eyes were cast on her.

But no one showed an expression of panic or fear.

What Chi feels most is curiosity and scrutiny.

There are well-meaning people, but the number is not so large.

There are also some incomprehensible whispers, such as "This time it is not wolf ears", "Did the bureau change people to lure the bait?", but in general, everyone is not because of her inhuman appearance. It seems repulsive or hated, as if it is not uncommon for a monster to appear on the street.

What he said... is actually true.

"Master Chi, Jinxia said that the carriage is ready." The voice of the guard interrupted Chi's thoughts.

She nodded, "Let's go."

...

Xia Fan led a group of people through the Dongcheng Gate to the Yantian production area.

The snowy season and the gray sky made the output of the salt drying field drop to the lowest point. There are no people working in the flat and white pools, but these square pools still give visitors the most intuitive The visual shock of the new salt farm is almost ten times the scale of the salt cooking farm, and the white ground stretches for miles can not be seen at a glance.

The convoy stopped in an open space, and Xia Fan introduced to the people who got out of the carriage, “This is Jinxia’s new saltworks. The salt it currently produces can meet all the needs of the people in Shenzhou. Winter is true for the open-air production area. There will be a certain impact, but we still have the second production area to ensure basic supply."

Chi really didn't see any traces of firewood burning. The first impression here was that it was clean and tidy. The white bottom surface of the pool looked like snow at first glance, but only after a closer look would it be found that it was a layer of condensation like ice crystals.

The problem is that salt production is a large-scale industry that requires a lot of manpower to maintain. There are not even a few people here. Can a sufficient amount of sea salt be produced?

"My lord, look at your feet!" Kong Xuanzi said suddenly in surprise, "It seems that the sand is not all snow."

Chi looked down, and immediately noticed the situation.

She squatted down and pushed aside the cold snow. There were many white particles mixed in the brown-yellow sand, and the snow could not penetrate the cracks through the surface of the sand.

Could it be that this is-salt?

She tried to pinch a small one into her mouth, and the salty taste suddenly melted on the tip of her tongue.

It turned out to be!

The other servants also made the same move.

"No, they let the salt spill on the ground?"

"Look at the edge of the pond, the patch seems to be all salt!"

"This is too wasteful."

"If you sift the salt out of the sand, you should be able to fill several sacks."

There was a sound of discussion in the team.

Chi walked up to Xia Fan and said with a hint of blame, "Although I don't know how you make salt, but the management is too lax. You may not take a few bags of salt to your heart, but to ordinary people In other words, one bag is enough to meet the needs of a family of three for decades. When the accumulation is small, the cost is the salt consumption of hundreds of families."

Xia Fan didn't expect that she would say this, and was a little surprised for a while, "It's not that I want to waste, but that this salt-making method will inevitably allow salt to seep into the earth. Instead of spending energy to filter them out, it is better to make new ones. Take a batch."

"Excuse me, Master Xia, the price of salt in Jinxia City...I don't know the geometry?" Kong Xuanzi asked with his hands.

"Coarse salt is one tael for ten cents. The price of refined salt is higher, tentatively set at five hundred cents."

"Is it expensive?" Chi turned his head and asked.

"It's quite cheap." Kong Xuanzi shook his head. "The price of salt in other places is basically around six or seventy cents, almost six times the difference. It's just this refined salt..."

"At present, it is only being promoted as a gift~www.ltnovel.com~ and has not yet been sold to the people. When the tour is over, I can give you a few bottles to taste." Xia Fan smiled, "Now go to the steaming factory to see Look."

The so-called steaming plant is the No. 2 production area of ​​the salt field. The moment they stepped into the factory gate, everyone was shocked by the sight inside.

I saw the steam surging in the huge pool, making the indoor temperature feel like midsummer! Hundreds of workers are busy here. They only wear a single coat and use long pieces of wood pulp to stir back and forth in the pool. The moment the wood pulp is drawn out of the water, they can already see some salt flowers hanging on it.

If you want to boil such a large pool of water, the fire is bound to be big, but everyone was stunned that they did not see a trace of flame. As if this brick boiling pool has incredible power, it can generate high temperature by itself to make the salt water boil!

The piling area at the other end of the factory even dispelled the last trace of Penglai people's doubts.

There are a dozen "salt mountains" placed there, each of which is nearly one floor high. People treat it in the same way as sand and gravel, gather together with a shovel, bagging and digging with a hoe... a lot of salt just scattered to the side of the road and was stepped into the ground at will. Such an attitude can only show one thing, the salt in Jinxia City is indeed abundant.
