Chen Ke put his hands behind his back and looked in the distance.
"The Municipal Property Department created it to sell some things that the government wanted to sell and to limit the price."
"And it's even simpler for the Manufacturing Agency to create."
"In Xianyang City, the General Manufacturing Department is for the production of "paper", "block printing" books, etc. "
"This is a ready-made official system that can be applied directly."
"The State Manufacturing Department, like the State and Municipal Materials Department, has an order, and the order is an official from the fourth rank."
"The only difference between the Manufacturing Department and the Municipal Property Department is that the Manufacturing Department has greater autonomy."
"Most of the Municipal Property Departments have to keep an overview of the overall situation and follow the orders of the Municipal Property Department at the higher level. There is not much room for them to express themselves."
"The Manufacturing Department is the "order" of the Manufacturing Department, adapting to local conditions, giving full play to the strengths of each place, and creating something unique to that place. "
"China has a vast territory and rich resources. Starting from Baiyue in the south to the Xiongnu land in the north, there are different customs and different pronunciations within ten miles. There are too many different things that can be developed."
Chen Ke looked into the distance: "And what I have to do is to set an example for them and let them know which direction they should go in."
Fusu felt relieved after hearing Chen Ke's plan.
Sure enough, being with your teacher saves trouble. The teacher will take most of the things into consideration when dealing with things.
So as to propose a solution.
"Teacher, what is the method of making salt you are talking about?"
Chen Ke squinted his eyes slightly, looked at the flat beach and said, "What I'm talking about is the "salting method." "
“Dig salt fields in this flat area, and then after exposure to the sun, sea salt will be produced. After the sea salt is refined to a certain extent, fine salt can be obtained.”
"The salt produced is crystal clear, like white snow."
"Therefore, it can also be called "snowflake salt". "
There was some emotion in Chen Ke's voice: "It's just that this only exists in imagination. I have not yet tested the extent of salt that can be produced by the sun-dried salt method."
"I came up with this method after seeing this flat beach."
Fusu immediately said decisively: "Then when I get back, I will go find Guan Zhuo and ask him to think of a way to make this thing."
"The Manufacturing Department has not yet been established, and we do not have enough manpower, so we can only let Guan Zhu take care of these things."
"But don't worry, teacher, I will find a mute slave craftsman to memorize the specific content of the "Salt Sun Method", and then I won't allow anyone to know about it. "
"Also, this mute slave craftsman must be heavily guarded when he is waiting for the last step of making "snowflake salt"! "
Chen Ke didn't express any opinions on Fusu's caution.
In this era of low productivity, salt is one of the most important things.
People in this era already know that not taking salt for a long time will have serious consequences, but salt is really difficult to refine.
For the whole ancient times, it was a very difficult thing.
Even two thousand years after the Qin Dynasty, in that backward and decadent dynasty, that dynasty that was about to approach the light of day, selling salt was still a major matter of beheading and killing clan members.
A special "salt gang" was even formed.
When it comes to salt, you can never be too careful.
Chen Ke turned his head, looked at Fusu beside him and said, "Let's put it aside for a while. You can explain this matter to the mute slave craftsman first."
"I only know the general process, the rest still needs their careful consideration."
Chen Ke hesitated for a moment and said: "This matter needs to be reported to Your Majesty. It is not just about salt, but also another matter."
He squinted his eyes and said, "When we passed that village before, the person arranged by Qi Sigui actually had "iron" in his hands. "
"Although "iron" won't be very lethal without multiple forgings, things like "iron" cannot be controlled by the people. "
"I would like to report to Your Majesty and ask Your Majesty to let the ministers discuss whether it should be "salt and iron official camp" at the court. "
Yantie official camp?
Fusu looked at Chen Ke and said, "Didn't the teacher already want Yantie to be the official camp? Why do we still need to discuss it? Can't we just write to the emperor directly?"
Chen Ke glanced at Fusu meaningfully: "Fusu, you have to know that if your minister keeps asking you to make individual choices, then you must be careful with this person."
"Because long-term single choice will make you gradually lose the power in your hands."
"So even if the single choice of obedience seems to be correct, don't do it."
"He makes you dependent on that person and loses your own authority."
"For a long time, people only know "someone" but not "Your Majesty". "
Chen Ke walked aside, walking on the water against the waves, but after a while his shoes became soaked, but Chen Ke still walked like this.
I felt happy for the first time in a long time.
What is happiness?
Maybe it's walking on the beach and getting your shoes soaked, or maybe it's just looking at the sea aimlessly, wandering in a daze.
Maybe happiness means doing whatever you want to do.
Fusu was at the side, with some thoughts in his eyes.
He knew that this was his teacher teaching him, and it was also his teacher trying to avoid suspicion.
In fact, sometimes Fusu feels helpless. His teacher always likes to avoid suspicion and always likes to do things that are really unnecessary.
In fact, Fusu knew how much his father trusted his teacher.
Even after discussion, if there are different opinions, his father will agree with his teacher's statement and then implement it against all opinions.
He followed Chen Ke's footsteps and walked back.
There is a banquet in Penglaizhou tonight. It is not a big banquet, but a certain clan here wants to entertain Chen Ke.
Four months after arriving in Penglaizhou, Ying Meng finally thought of hosting a banquet for the governor of Penglaizhou, Chen Ke.
............
On the endless sea, the blue ocean fills everyone's eyes.
The people on the ship were no longer as lifeless as before, but instead were full of excitement and high emotions.
Xu Fu stood aside with a smile on his face. Next to him stood a young man with the same smile on his face.
This is the "king" of the Yin and Shang Dynasties, Di Lun.
Di Lun looked at the ocean in the distance with a curious expression on his face: "Xu Shiling, is this the ocean?"
"How far are we from Da Qin now?"
"How far is it from home?"
Xu Fu counted the days in his mind, and then said: "We have been away for more than two months. When we came, we didn't know the way, so we walked for a little more than a year."
"Now that I know the road, there are fewer detours. It will probably take about nine or ten months."
"In half a year, we will be able to reach Daqin."
Xu Fu's eyes were full of expectation: "King Yin, when we arrive in Qin, I will report it to His Majesty the First Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and you can pay homage to His Majesty!"
