Become a mayor from today

As for the rest, Yingya doesn't understand. He only knows that salt can be sold more now, and those commoners who help the city master have saved some copper coins.

"Now a pound of salt is thirty copper coins, should the price add one copper coin?"

Yingya has been thinking about this issue for three or four days. Raising prices or something is normal for businessmen. Don't be like those stupid grain merchants. He also went to see the hanging that day. Now, he actually dared to murder the nobles.

"The purchase price from Haiyan City costs five copper coins per catty, and the cost of shipping to Xiyang City is ten copper coins. The cost of one catty of salt is ten copper coins. When you only earn twenty copper coins, when will you be able to earn enough money for retirement? Look! Come and raise the price!"

Haiyan City is an alley city close to the sea. It is one of the largest cities in the kingdom. It is rich in sea salt. Every year, there are countless sea salt sent from Haiyan City. There are many salt merchants like Yingya.

In fact, Yingya is very jealous of the shops in the big market, which is the place with the most people in the entire Xiyang City, which is a pity!They refused to sell the shop, only rented it out, and had to pay taxes.

Just this, he couldn't accept it. Originally, he earned [-] copper coins very little, and he had to pay taxes. How could he accept it? Anyway, his family sold salt in Xiyang City. to buy salt.

"Ta Tata..."

The sound of horses' hooves woke up the calculating Yingya. He looked towards the road and saw four or five carriages pulling things over.

"Huh? Isn't that the big butler Niu? What actually made him go out?" Yingya knew that Niu Ben was the housekeeper of the city lord Liu Feng, and usually rarely left the city lord's mansion. Hearing that there was a major event, Niu Ben would be dispatched.

"The stuff on that carriage must be very precious, right? It's actually being escorted by Butler Niu." Ying Ya got up and stretched her head to look at the carriage, but it was a pity that it was blocked by Mai Xi.

Niu Ben also saw Ying Ya, a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and shook his head silently, I was afraid that this salt merchant would vomit blood and sell it soon.

Or, he wants to leave Xiyang City and go to another city to sell salt, or he will go bankrupt and lose all his money.

Yingya scratched his head, and he saw Niuben's smile. Years of intuition in doing business gave him a bad premonition.

"Could the city master attack me? That's impossible, right? Isn't he afraid of scaring other businessmen away?"

"Ta Tata..."

"boom!"

A few carriages went away, leaving Yingya, who was thinking wildly, just when he saw something fell from the carriage, and he quickly went up and picked it up.

"Stone? Could it be an ore? Could it be a gem mine?" Yingya's eyes lit up, she immediately hid the stone in her arms, strode back to the store, and closed the store.

Niu Ben didn't know that he lost a piece of salt ore, and it was put away like a treasure. At this time, he drove the carriage into the scientific research department of the military camp.

To be able to make salt from salt ore is a big change, and it is the best choice in the heavily guarded scientific research department.

When Liu Feng arrived, the salt mines on the carriage were all unloaded and piled up like small hills.

"Master, do you see enough? Not enough, I'll ask someone to take more trips." Niu Ben said solemnly, the first trip he went in person, it can be seen that he values ​​salt.

"That's enough. After the salt is made, it will be enough for thousands of people for many days. The next time you make salt, it will be roughly refined in the same place, and then transferred to another place."

Liu Feng nodded with satisfaction. There are some things that he can't release yet, otherwise it will become a tool for other nobles to make money. It is also him who wants to promote, and his promotion at that time, but others can't imagine, but also let him have. Good reputation, nobles can't make money either.

"I'll send someone to watch." Niu Ben is not a bad guy, he knows who he is loyal to, and he doesn't believe that the young master is the kind of person who takes money.

Because it is not too easy for the young master to make money. Watch fetishes, crystal glass cups, composite hunting bows, etc., if one leaks out, you can earn thousands of gold coins.

But young master, he didn't do this, and he still wanted to reward them with these fetishes. Where can I find such a master?The whole world may only find one like this.

"Don't worry, the price of the salt produced will not be very high, and it will definitely make salt affordable for everyone." Liu Feng chuckled.

Chapter 0075 The otherworldly version of salt making.

Mina squatted in front of the salt mine, looking at the black ore, it was difficult for her to connect the white salt together.

"Master, is the salt we eat from here?" Mina asked softly, she was relaxed now, and she didn't feel the tension in the morning.

"Isn't it incredible?" Liu Feng sighed, "Actually, this world is more complicated than it seems to you. In my hometown, people can go up to the ground and appear hundreds of miles away in a day."

"What? How is this possible?" Nicole's eyes widened and her mouth opened wide.

If it's something else, forget it, flying into the ground and appearing hundreds of miles away in a day, which is a bit scary.

"Hahaha... Nothing is impossible, maybe we can do it in the future? Well, maybe..."

Liu Feng smiled brightly. With the zero industrial base here, it is a bit whimsical for him to build small planes, excavators, etc., but other methods can be tried.

"If Feitian, could it be the Orcs of the Bird Clan? But I haven't heard of the Orcs of the Bird Clan for a long time." En Li frowned and said inexplicably.

Liu Feng blinked and said embarrassingly, "Bird orcs? Winged orcs?"

"Huh? Master, have you seen it?" Mina said in surprise, "I haven't seen them for five or six years."

"No, I haven't seen it before. The first time I saw the orcs was you, Mina." Liu Feng shook his head. He suddenly realized that he knew too little about the world, even the winged bird orcs.

"They are the most free orcs, but unfortunately they all disappeared when the extreme cold storm came five years ago."

Mina said a little sadly, the orcs are very envious of the bird orcs, because they can freely enjoy themselves in the sky.

"Okay, don't think about sad things, let's start making salt now." Liu Feng quickly pulled the topic away.

Going on like this, the ghost knows how many sad memories will be involved, this is not a happy day, and the beast-eared girl is more cute when she smiles.

"Then how to do it?" En Li excitedly said, she was interested in some bizarre research on the Tenth Society, and recently she began to pester Nicole to teach her how to make sweets.

"Bring in all the tools first!" Liu Feng shouted loudly.

Immediately someone ran to move things, and soon a lot of things were moved in, sieves for making salt, hammers, linen, charcoal, barrels, iron pots, and stone mills for grinding wheat.

Then the gate was guarded by soldiers, and those who stayed in the house could be trusted. Every time Liu Feng had something to do or plan to arrange, the gate would be guarded, and even the roof would be guarded.

"Start now!"

Liu Feng took a small hammer and smashed the large salt mine into small grains, about a dozen pounds, and poured it into the stone mill. While adding water, he vigorously turned the stone mill.

When Mina saw it, she took the initiative to push the stone mill, and easily turned the stone mill into a creaking noise. Even if it was a cat orc who was not known for its strength, its strength was stronger than that of the human race.

The salt ore ground by the stone mill turned into powder, and washed with water, it turned into gray-black turbid water with the ore crushed into the wooden barrel under the stone mill. , got a whole bucket of cloudy water.

"This..." The people present didn't understand this operation at all, and they didn't see any shadow of Yan.

Liu Feng took another wooden barrel, covered it with two or three layers of sackcloth, then poured the turbid water into it, and soon the slag was filtered out by the sackcloth.

The cloudy water in the bucket also changed color, not gray-black, but brown.

"Hey! The color has become lighter." En Li hurriedly took out a notepad and quickly wrote on it.

"The salt is all in this water. The only reason everyone sees that the salt is not white is because there are too many impurities in the water." Liu Feng paused and explained it to everyone.

Then he picked up another wooden bucket, covered it with six or seven layers of sackcloth, poured the water into it again, and the color changed again, becoming a light brown and a little reddish.

"The water is relatively clean now, and most of the impurities have been filtered, and then the next step is to get rid of some toxic impurities in the water."
