"you made it yourself?"
After hearing what Xiao Zhengtai said, Wang Jian suddenly stopped chewing potato chips, "You mean... you can purify salt?"
"Um!"
Xiao Zhengtai nodded naturally, not finding anything strange at all.
The purification of coarse salt is actually very simple. There is no technical content at all. As long as you have a little knowledge of chemistry, you can do it!
"Master, wait for me here, I'll show it to you!"
Little Shota jumped up and ran out again.
After just a moment, the young lady came back with a small paper bag in her hand, "Master, this is for you!"
Wang Jian opened the paper bag, and the tiny grains of refined salt inside shone brightly.
If he hadn't mentioned fine salt before, he wouldn't have believed that the tiny particles in front of him were salt!
"This...this...? Is this young master purifying such fine salt?"
The facts were all before his eyes, but Wang Jian still couldn't believe it.
The fine salt in the palace has to go through many procedures to be made, and even so, it is not as good as one-tenth of what is in front of you!
"Yes, if you want to make delicious potato chips, you must have this salt!"
When she was outside the palace, the young lady missed snacks and potato chips very much.
But I didn’t get any potatoes, so there was no use thinking about it.
"Master, if I sell this salt, can I make money?"
"Haha! The young master's craftsmanship is unique in Da Qin. If we really want to talk about the price, one gold for one tael is about the same!"
Wang Jian gave a very high evaluation.
Yijin refers to a piece of gold cake, which weighs about one tael, equivalent to one thousand copper coins. This shows the scarcity of refined salt in this era!
Technology is now very backward, and it is difficult to detect salt mines. Coupled with low productivity, the annual salt output is very low, and the supply exceeds demand!
"Does Your Majesty know that the young master can purify table salt to this extent?"
"Father has already tasted the stir-fry I made, but he still doesn't know about the salt!"
They had only been back for two or three days, and they had so many things on their hands that they had no time to mention this matter specifically.
I just had to catch up on my chat today, so I got here!
"If you have time, young master, you can tell your majesty. Your majesty will definitely be very happy!" Wang Jian reminded.
"Okay, this time Master will take these back to taste first. Next time I will purify them more and give them to Master!"
Little Shota smiled and nodded, eating crispy potato chips, which was quite enjoyable.
"Well, I can't believe that you have such fantastic ideas at such a young age! I heard that you also invented the horseshoe that reduces wear on horseshoes?"
Wang Jian stared at Xiao Zhengtai, who was just over one meter tall, feeling incredible.
"That's right. On the way back, I felt that it was such a pity for those horses to be eliminated, so I drew a random drawing!"
Little Shota looked up with a cute little face.
"Just draw it casually?"
"Um!"
"Did you know that this casual painting solved a major problem that had plagued the Qin Dynasty for hundreds of years, and also saved the Qin Dynasty a lot of money!"
"What is this? I have another thing that can increase the combat effectiveness of the cavalry!"
"What?"
Wang Jian was immediately interested when he heard that it could increase the combat effectiveness of cavalry.
"Master, wait a minute, I'll draw it for you!"
The young lady found a piece of white paper and drew the shape of a saddle and stirrups on it.
Now Meng Tian has invented the writing brush, which makes writing very smooth.
But for drawing, Ying Feiyu still thinks that the pencils rewarded by the system are the best, and he must mass-produce them if there is a chance in the future!
"Master, please look!"
After the drawing was completed, Xiao Zhengtai handed it to Wang Jian, "These are called saddles and stirrups. They can fix the body. Even if a novice rides on the horse, he will not fall off. If he goes to the battlefield, with these two things, the cavalry will not have to worry about falling off. Go down and focus on fighting!"
After hearing this, Wang Jian's eyes became brighter and brighter, "Okay, if this thing is built, it will definitely take the cavalry's combat effectiveness to a new level!"
"That's right!"
Xiao Zhengtai nodded, "When I have time, I will ask my father to build these two things. Our Great Qin will no longer be afraid of the Huns' cavalry!"
"Well, I'm getting old, and I'll have to rely on you juniors from now on!"
Wang Jian shook his head and smiled bitterly.
The two talked a lot about the Huns, and Wang Jian was impressed by this young master who was only five years old!
As described by his son Wang Bi before, this child should be naughty and talented.
But what he saw today was a child with a quick mind, calmness and foresight, who would become a great person in the future!
It would be right to betroth Wan'er to him in the future!
When Wang Jian returned to the house, he happened to catch up with Wang Wan in the main hall, talking boastfully about the young lady's mission to punish rape and eliminate evil in Xianyang City today!
When he mentioned that Xiao Zhengtai kicked Yan Le away, his eyes were filled with little stars.
"What? My Wan'er also has someone she admires? Haha!"
Wang Jian walked slowly into the door with his hands behind his back.
"Grandpa, you don't know that those short legs are so strong. You can lift Yan Le up with one hand and beat him until his teeth are all over the floor!"
Wang Wan thought that her grandfather didn't believe it, so she told the story again with great joy.
"What's the point of lifting Yan Le? The young master can lift the stone lion in the palace with one hand!"
Wang Jian sat down at the main seat and slowly poured himself a cup of tea.
"What? Dad, are you telling the truth?"
Wang Ben's jaw suddenly dropped.
He didn't think anything of it when his daughter Wang Wan told him before. He had seen that boy with great strength, but he didn't expect him to be so big.
Can you lift the stone lion in the palace?
The stone lions in the palace are taller than him, not to mention heavy. Even if there are ten more, he may not be able to lift them.
That kid can actually raise one hand?
It’s incredible!
"Grandpa, how do you know?"
Wang Wanmei's eyes widened and she was obviously frightened.
If what grandpa said were true, wouldn't he become a clown?
I kept clamoring all day about wanting to beat people up, but it turned out that they didn't take me seriously at all and could throw me out with just one hand!
And that amazing speed, she has never seen anyone faster than those short legs!
If this were to happen on the battlefield, with the power and acceleration in his hands, it would be easy to decapitate the enemy general!
"Of course I saw it with my own eyes...!"
Wang Jian took a slow sip of tea and told the two of them what happened today.
"I didn't expect that in addition to being powerful, the young master also has a talent for martial arts!"
Wang Ben felt ashamed.
There are really not many people in the entire Great Qin that I can praise, let alone praise them for a long time!
I remember when he was learning martial arts, his father scolded him for his human brain and turned him into a dog brain. It took a lot of effort to master it!
"Grandpa, that boy wants to learn war games. Is it possible that he wants to go into battle to kill the enemy in the future?"
"This will happen sooner or later. Da Qin is a military merit system and takes pride in military merit. Even a prince will not be able to obtain a decent fiefdom in the future if he does not have any military merit, let alone inherit the throne!"
Wang Jian nodded.
Not to mention the other princes, even Fusu, who had been studying Confucianism, went to Shangjun to practice for several years in order to inherit the throne in the future.
If you don't have any military merit, it means you have no chance of becoming the emperor.
Even if the emperor agrees, it is impossible for the ministers to agree!
