"Cousin, what's wrong with you?"
Seeing Zhu Gaochi's expression was different, Su Yang couldn't help but ask.
"It's okay, it's okay, I was scared by what you said!"
Big Fatty waved his hands worriedly, wanting to rush back to the palace immediately.
"Actually, these are just my speculations. There is no basis at all. My cousin doesn't need to worry too much."
"Furthermore, King Yan has made great military achievements. He has led the army to the north for many expeditions against the Tartars. He is deeply loved by the people of the world. His Majesty the Emperor should not do anything to destroy the Great Wall."
"Haha." Zhu Gaochi smiled stiffly, and the more he listened, the more uneasy he became.
You were telling your wife to run away just now, and now you are saying such nonsense, do you think I believe it or not?
"Ms. sir, you talk nonsense all day long!" Zhu Wanqiu pinched Su Yang's waist hard.
Su Yang immediately confessed and begged for mercy, not daring to say anything more.
If he told his daughter-in-law, Zhu Di would soon launch an army to suppress Jingnan, and he would not scare her to death!
After eating, Zhu Wanqiu washed the dishes obediently, while Su Yang prepared to refine the mineral salt.
Now that you have decided to run away, you need to prepare more supplies.
After refining the mineral salt and selling it, purchasing a batch of supplies, you can run away with your wife.
Zhu Gaochi originally planned to rush back to the palace immediately, but when he saw Su Yang preparing to refine the mineral salt, he immediately stopped leaving!
In fact, rushing back now won't help.
The imperial court has already taken action, and the palace has no way out!
Prince Yan's Mansion is almost cornered by the new emperor, and has no choice but to rebel!
If Su Yang's salt-making technology is obtained, the palace's plan can be accelerated!
After understanding this, Zhu Gaochi calmed down a lot.
And he vaguely felt that this Su Yang was not simple!
Just by relying on the small matter of rising food prices and the rumors in the market, he guessed the general trend of the world!
Such a person definitely has amazing talent!
Maybe he really knows how to make salt!
Seeing Su Yang busy non-stop, Big Fatty wanted to help and behaved in advance, but Su Yang ignored him at all.
So the prince could only show off his knowledge angrily from the sidelines, trying to show his presence.
"Boy Su, what kind of salt do you want to make?"
"I can tell you that each type of salt is different, and the methods of making salt are also completely different!"
"For example, Shanxi's pool salt, Sichuan's well salt, and Xiqiang's green salt. Each type of salt has a different price depending on its quality."
"The most common among the people is sea salt, which costs sixty-seven cents per catty; pool salt and well salt are higher than sea salt, costing hundreds of cents per catty; and green salt is the most expensive, costing at least three hundred cents per catty!"
Big Fatty kept nagging in his ear, which made Su Yang very annoyed.
However, he was also a little surprised by this man's broad knowledge. The wealthy children of ordinary people did not have such broad knowledge.
I'm afraid that my little wife's identity may not be simple!
“Among the best salts, green salt is the most recommended!”
"Especially the green salt of Xiqiang. According to its color, it can be divided into green salt, white salt, red salt and black salt. The best snowflake salt is a tribute from the Central Government. It is crystal clear and has a pure taste. That is the real value. No market!"
"What about my salt?" the little girl asked subconsciously.
"..."
Su Yang glanced at Big Fatty impatiently. The "Xiqiang" in his mouth should be the so-called "green salt" in Qinghai in later generations, which is Chaka salt. It was the first choice salt for mouthwash among the powerful men of the Ming Dynasty!
Big Fatty was ready to show off his talents, but unexpectedly his waist hurt.
"Hey...sister, why are you pinching me!"
The big fat man felt a pain in his body, and Zhu Wanqiu suddenly pinched his waist hard.
The little girl glared at this guy angrily and said angrily: "Can't you just be quiet for a while? Don't you see that my husband is busy?"
Zhu Gaochi: "..."
well!
Turn your elbows out!
There is no place for women to stay in college!
In order to resolve the awkward atmosphere, Su Yang took the initiative to speak.
"It's okay, Xiaowan, I also want to know more about the difference between these salts."
"I dare to ask my cousin, is the salt produced in each place different?"
Su Yang took the initiative to show his kindness, and Big Fatty immediately became energetic.
"That's for sure!"
“The sea salt from Hebei is white with yellowish color when cooked, but the sea salt from Shandong is white with reddish color!”
"Pond salt and well salt are also completely different. Pool salt is made from brine mined from saltwater lakes, well salt is mined from brine wells, and sea salt is made from seawater made from seawater and cooked. Each The salt is all different..."
"That means no one cares about mineral salt, right?"
Su Yang opened his mouth with a smile and pointed out the crux of the problem.
Zhu Gaochi's eyes narrowed, and then he nodded solemnly.
"You are right!"
"Mineral salt is called poisonous salt because it can easily kill people."
“No matter how poor the people are and cannot afford salt, they still won’t eat this damn thing, so no one cares about mineral salt!”
"If you, Su Yang, really have salt-making technology and can turn this mineral salt into treasure, not only will you have a huge amount of wealth at your fingertips, but you can also benefit the people of the world!"
To be honest, Zhu Gaochi didn't quite believe that Su Yang could refine mineral salt.
After reading books for so many years, he has never heard of anyone who can turn mineral salt into treasure!
But at this moment, the prince is full of expectations for Su Yang, hoping that this handsome-faced sister-in-law can create miracles!
If Su Yang really does it, then his marriage with his younger sister will no longer be a problem, and it will also help Prince Yan's Mansion survive from a desperate situation!
Su Yang continued to boil the brine without arrogance or impatience, as if what Big Fatty just said had nothing to do with him.
Whether it is to obtain massive wealth or benefit the people of the world, these are not what Su Yang wants now.
The reason why he is refining this mineral salt now is just to use the salt to exchange for some silver, and then purchase a batch of supplies and run away with his young wife!
The Battle of Jingnan is about to break out, and Su Yang doesn't want to be the one who stands out and is targeted by someone with serious intentions!
So what if you are as rich as a country?
Shen Wansan's lesson is right in front of him!
Seeing that Su Yang was silent and silent, Zhu Gaochi couldn't help but poke him.
"Boy Su, how are you going to get out the poisonous stuff in this mineral salt?"
"Cousin, you really don't think of yourself as an outsider!"
Su Yang teased angrily, making Zhu Gaochi blush.
However, the prince did not get angry. He had always had a good temper. Instead, he stayed where he was with a smile.
This matter is of great importance. Whether the Yan Palace can make a comeback depends on now, and there is no room for sloppiness.
Even if he, Zhu Gaochi, is shameless today and throws Prince Yan's face here, he still wants to get the salt-making technology!
Su Yang looked at him deeply and did not hide it.
"Are you sure you want to listen? You may not be able to understand what I said!"
"Listen!" Zhu Gaochi answered without hesitation, patting his chest.
Nonsense, you must listen to this. Whether you understand or not is his business, but if you don't, you are a fool. This is a huge profit-making business!
"In fact, whether it is sea salt, pool salt, or well salt, the steps for refining these salts are the same."
"The first step is to remove insoluble impurities. This step is relatively simple, filtering, boiling, crushing, melting, and filtering... The final salt obtained, which is most of the salt on the market today, is only the first The coarse salt after processing still has impurities to a greater or lesser extent."
"The second step is the key. To remove soluble impurities and harmful substances in coarse salt, this step involves chemical reactions. Each type of salt is purified and refined in a different way..."
"Boy Su, wait a minute." Zhu Gaochi touched his forehead and asked with a sneer: "What is the 'snow melting reaction'? Is it possible to add snow to refine salt?"
Su Yang: "???"
Damn?
Add snow in?
It's a chemical reaction, not a "snow-melting reaction", you bastard!
Su Yang's expression suddenly became strange. After a moment of silence, he asked a heart-wrenching question.
"Cousin, is he really well-read?"
"..."
