Tang Sufan complained: "Where can there be so much delicious food? Lao Cheng, please stop ink and help me carry the firewood!"
After saying that, Tang Sufan turned around and left. Cheng Yaojin spat twice and hurriedly followed.
Li Shimin looked at Tang Sufan's expression and immediately became interested: "Let's go and see what Mr. Tang is fussing about?"
Then Changsun Wuji and Fang Du also quickly followed.
As soon as Tang Sufan walked to the door of an earthen house, he suddenly stopped and found that Lao Li and a group of people following behind him looked a little embarrassed.
Li Shimin also paused: "What's wrong with Mr. Tang?"
Tang Sufan thought for a while and said, "Well, Lao Li, why don't you guys... stop following me? Hey, Lao Cheng, give me the firewood."
Cheng Yaojin's eyes suddenly narrowed, he held Chai in his arms and said with a crooked smile: "Boss Tang, are you hiding some good treasures in this house?"
Li Shimin also narrowed his eyes. This kid could put a bunch of glazed treasures anywhere without any precautions against them. Why is he so secretive now?
Is it possible...
What good stuff is inside?
That won't work. How can a good thing be without me? Let him figure it out.
Even Guanyin Maid recognized your younger brother in a daze, which gave me a headache! If you don't show me something good, how can you do that?
Tang Sufan blocked the door and said with a smile: "Well, there's nothing good in there, I'm just afraid that your clothes will be dirty~"
Li Shimin and others looked at Tang Sufan jokingly at the same time, "Dirty our clothes?" Do you think we will believe it?
Haven't you seen that even Cheng Hanzi looks like he doesn't believe it?
Li Shimin's expression became serious, as if our friendship would be over if you don't let me in.
"Why, Mr. Tang, you still can't trust someone's character?"
Tang Sufan looked blank. Why did this bitch come at this time if he didn't come earlier or later...
After thinking for a while, he said helplessly: "Well, many people make mistakes with their words. It's not that I can't trust you, but you know better and don't talk nonsense or have any other ideas. This is no small matter~"
Li Shimin suddenly raised his eyebrows. This boy really had something good hidden in him.
"Don't worry, if you still can't believe me, go in and have a look, and you will never go out and talk nonsense!"
Tang Sufan hesitated for a moment and then said, "Oh, okay, come in~"
Several people followed into the earthen house of the workshop. When they entered, they saw that the ground around them was filled with white stones.
There are two large pots standing around, which are steaming and cooking. There are several large yellow barrels around, containing some yellow brine, and there are some scattered tools around.
Li Shimin stared at the white stone and recognized it after a while. He frowned and said, "Boss Tang, isn't this a salt mine? Where did you get it?"
"I had people dig it from the Wei River outside the city."
Li Shimin kindly reminded: "Besides the Weishui River...there are indeed no salt mines anywhere, but there are so many salt mines, why do you prepare so many?"
"I'll tell you later, I'll do mine first."
Then Tang Sufan lowered his head and looked at the boiling salt water in the pot. Snow-white particles could be seen floating on the surface, and it looked like it was ready.
Then he turned to the worker and said: "After two columns, the salt water in this pot is almost ready. It is ready to be filtered. The other pot will continue to cook for a quarter of an hour..."
Erzhu obviously didn't understand the term filtering, so he quickly asked: "Um, boss, what is filtering?"
"Just pour the boiled salt water on the brine cloth prepared in the backyard, and then dry it in the sun to form crystal blocks, which are small white blocks. Then dry it in the sun and wait until I come back to see it. I will teach you the rest. you."
"Okay, okay."
The workers responded quickly, and Erzhu quickly took someone to scoop up the salt water in the large pot with a wooden basin and carried it to the backyard...
Li Shimin finally saw it clearly and said quickly: "Boss Tang, are you making salt?! Or making salt from the salt mine you use!! This salt mine is poisonous, you can't eat it!"
Tang Sufan glanced at Li Shimin and said slowly: "Of course I have ways to remove the poisonous salt mines. I make all the salt I use at home. I can't eat the coarse salt on the market."
The salt on the market today is all bitter and coarse salt.
Moreover, there are too many impurities, so eating it is not healthy at all, and there is a high risk of getting thyroid tumors, which is also commonly known as big neck disease.
So when Tang Sufan returned to Chang'an, he used processing and purification methods to refine some refined salt for his own consumption. At this time, he didn't have the guts to start a salt-selling business.
The matter of making salt is too involved, and the reason why a common man is not guilty and carries a jade in his possession could not be simpler.
So you can make some and eat it yourself~
But now, Tang Sufan has got a better method from "Tiangong Kaiwu", and now he will use this method to improve it.
Besides, if you want to be a qualified time traveler, how can you not make salt?
Tang Sufan's reply made Li Shimin and others stare blankly, their whole bodies became numb, and their breathing became a little faster.
This sentence, as if muttered in a dream, is so unbelievable!
Li Shimin's tone instantly doubled: "What, you have a way to remove the toxicity of salt mines!"
In today's world, salt can be said to be an important strategic resource.
There is a shortage of salt in the world, and a little good salt can be sold for a ridiculous price. People do not dare to put too much food in their homes. Some homes have no salt and can only use vinegar cloth to slightly enhance the taste.
In the Zhou Dynasty, salt could become a tribute, and in the Han Dynasty, salt and iron officials held salt firmly in the hands of the court.
Although there is no clear legal provision for making salt for oneself to eat privately, it can easily be accused of selling private salt.
The crime of selling illegal salt was a serious crime, so Tang Sufan had to take precautions.
Seeing the look on Old Li's face, Tang Sufan quickly reminded him: "Shh, it's okay if you know. You just need to know this. Don't even think about it. You can use this thing to make money. You can't eat it!"
Seeing Tang Sufan's look of confirmation, even Li Shimin, the Supreme Emperor, was shocked and speechless for a moment.
Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and Changsun Wuji are the bosses who are looking at each other. With their positions, how could they not see the huge interests behind them.
Even Cheng Hanzi was very excited, darling, I didn't expect such a big 'treasure' hidden in this room!
If you can turn salt mines into edible refined salt, it will become countless money!
In the Tang Dynasty, salt and iron were not exclusively owned by the government, but were handed over to various aristocratic families. The one who benefited the most was the Sun family, the eldest relative of the imperial family!
Immediately, Changsun Wuji looked at Tang Sufan with very complicated eyes. No wonder His Majesty is so fond of this boy and regards him as an equal. This boy actually has such a talent!
At this time, Cheng Yaojin stared at the bear and asked, "Is it possible that the salt you made was used in everything we ate at your house before?"
"Of course, otherwise you think why my food tastes so pure, but don't worry, my salt is not only non-toxic, but also better than official salt."
Li Shimin's eyes widened: "Is it really better than Guanyan?"
"Now we're just waiting for the brine to be filtered. When it's ready, I'll give you some to take home and eat~"
Then Tang Sufan turned to Li Shimin with an unusually serious face and said: "Old Li... you just need to know what I am, and don't go out and talk about it! Once this thing appears, it will involve too many things, and you should know the stakes. !”
