Lord of the Oasis Chapter 13: .The Wisdom of the Salander

These desert robbers are Kant's confidence.

He is absolutely certain that he can absolutely complete the temporary task of this system.

Because they come from the Sultanate of Sarand, the robbers in this desert country have long been familiar with the cruel desert environment. They hone their skills in this vast sand sea and can be regarded as standard desert survival experts.

Travel deep into the Narun Desert, where these desert bandits can be of great help.

Kant had already made up his mind about the saline-alkali land, a sufficient natural salt mine.

It's a must.

Kant was born in the Principality of the Lion and is the ruler of the entire principality. The youngest son of Cameron, Duke of the Lion, was not favored by his deceased mother, but he still received the noble education and various studies he should have since he was a child. adequate.

After all, he is a transmigrator. He has two lives, and he has a strong learning ability, which also makes him understand a lot.

Just like now.

Kant had obtained the information on the salt resources, so he could fully know that he would cause a storm in the Principality of Lions, which is mostly a country of plains and hills.

Because the lion duchy does not produce salt.

Moreover, it borders the Principality of the Lion, and several principalities that belong to the Human Territory have no salt mines.

If you want to eat salt that brings a salty taste and satisfies your tongue, you need to import it.

According to the books Kant had read in the castle mage tower, the merchants needed to travel to the distant western mountains, which were not the territory of the human kingdoms, but the territory of the dwarves who were good at digging tunnels and metallurgy. It was purchased through these stocky dwarves of about 1.4 meters, and then continued to travel thousands of miles back to sell.

These dwarves own a salt mine 300 meters deep underground. They mine it day and night to meet the salt needs of many countries. They are the largest salt exporters on the continent.

Therefore, in the human kingdoms, the price of salt is high, and it is not a condiment that ordinary civilians can enjoy on a daily basis.

1 pound of fine, fine white salt can be exchanged for a good, strong horse.

Enough to justify the high value of this condiment.

And the more valuable spices, such as the top black pepper, in the years when the spices are scarce or the war hinders the business line, the price can even be equal to the same weight of gold, which is a luxury that the senior aristocrats should cherish.

Kant knew this well.

After all, in the 16 years since I came to this world, I have attended many large and small banquets.

But I have never enjoyed letting go of my appetite and feasting on a variety of spices that I have never had before.

Although this world has swords and magic, all kinds of wonderful items, and fantastic races, it is still essentially similar to the Middle Ages of Earth in Europe, where materials are scarce, simple and backward, a helpless feudal era.

"Call."

Kant took a deep breath.

The throbbing in his heart was forcibly suppressed by him, allowing himself to regain his calm.

The reality is still here.

If he does not have enough strength, he will not take the initiative to contact the lion principality.

Those are hungry wolves.

is a monster that can never be satisfied.

The truth of guilt was revealed in the previous life on the earth. If the impression of the barren desert in Nalen is broken, and the salt mines with huge profits appear in the eyes of the nobles of the Principality of Lions, there may be a bunch of robbers who don't know where they came from. , will make him, the baron of the sentry oasis, disappear from this world.

Kant has never had a high opinion of the security environment in this world.

In a world where strength is everything, when a child appears next to a bunch of thugs holding gold, it is self-evident that he is waiting for him.

"You still have to be strong."

Kant shook his head slightly, but with a smile on his face.

He is confident.

Because the essence of Swadia's kingdom is in the system he was born with.

This is Kant's golden finger!

"Keep busy."

Kant's instructions to the waiting Swadian peasant.

"Yes, Lord." The peasant nodded respectfully.

But just as the farmer was about to turn around and leave, he seemed to have thought of something. He held the old clay pot in his hand and asked Kant, "Sir, what should I do with the coarse salt in this pot?" /

These salts are unfiltered raw coarse salts, which not only contain sediment, but also contain various harmful substances.

After all, these are coarse salt scraped directly from the saline-alkali ground. Of course, it doesn't matter if you eat them with the appetite of a jackal, but it is undoubtedly a challenge for the more demanding human stomach. After eating these coarse salts, you will definitely meet the Vomiting, diarrhea, toxic reactions, and more serious life-threatening reactions are possible.

"This..." Kant was slightly stunned, but his eyes turned to the six desert robbers.

"Lord Lord, we will boil salt and turn this coarse salt into table salt."

And the six desert robbers did not live up to his expectations, and nodded with certainty: "This is actually very simple."

"Very good." Kant nodded with satisfaction.

The desert where the Sarand Sultanate is located naturally also has saline-alkali land, and the Sarand people who seek a life in the desert will use certain principles to turn these inedible raw coarse salt into edible seasoning. Taste.

All you need is a stove, two large pots, and plenty of charcoal.

These are naturally present in the Consulate.

Kant is also curiously watching how these desert robbers turn these primitive and harmful coarse salt into edible salt.

"Is charcoal used to filter impurities?"

But Kant also has a concept in his heart, and the basic education in the previous life is not worth learning.

The stove rises to flames.

The spring water in the cauldron quickly boiled, and these desert robbers also poured all the coarse salt in the dilapidated clay pot into it.

As the heat rises, the coarse salt of Baihuahua gradually dissolves in the boiling water.

However, the originally clear spring water in the cauldron also appeared gray impurities at this time. Almost with the naked eye, you can see that the boiling water has many fine particles.

That's sand.

"Reduce the fire, we use a small fire." A desert robber ordered.

While other companions were waiting by the side, the fire in the stove was immediately reduced.

The boiling salt water gradually subsided, and a layer of fine sand appeared on the bottom of the pot.

Salt dissolves in water, but solids precipitate.

"It's amazing." Kant nodded, this is the application of living knowledge.

After waiting for a while, the salt water gradually became clear, but the sediment deposited at the bottom of the pot was already covered with sand, which seemed unimaginable. It turned out that the coarse salt that looked white before was so dirty.

"Prepare."

The desert robber in charge of all this speaks.

The other companions immediately brought another cauldron over, but it was densely filled with charcoal.

This is the key to filtering impurities.

The desert robber took out a large wooden spoon and began pouring salt water into the large pot full of charcoal. He moved quickly and skillfully. In the end, the iron pot was left with a thin layer of salt water and a layer of dirty water. silt.

"Almost complete."

He instructed his companion next to him: "Take out these garbage and clean the iron pot."

At the same time, he wiped the sweat on his face, turned his head and smiled at Kant: "Lord, wait for 1 hour, then change the pot and charcoal to filter 4 times again according to this procedure, and finally dry the water inside. , we will be able to separate out the best edible refined salt."

"Very good." Kant nodded.

Looking at the steaming iron pot, the brine mixed with the charcoal, these natural filters will filter out most of the impurities, and after going back and forth many times ~IndoMTL.com~ only the last brine is left.

Continue to heat the iron pot with fire, and the salt in it is precipitated, which is edible salt.

"Lord Lord."

"These will be fine white salt," the Desert Bandit assured.

"Very good, really very good."

Kant nodded with a big smile on his face, which is indeed something to be happy about.

Of course he understands what white salt is.

I understand the value better.

This fine white salt, which is as white as snow, is expensive in the Principality of Lions. Only those big nobles and big merchants can enjoy it, and the price will never be lower than 50 big silver coins per pound.

This is a luxury that only nobles can enjoy.

It's definitely not the same as the rough well salt eaten by the wealthy commoners and the small landlords.

Not only expensive, but also a status symbol!

"I can't wait."

Kant had a big smile on his face.

In half a day, the coarse salt of inedible saline-alkali land can be turned into expensive fine white salt.

As long as Kant masters the natural salt mine of saline-alkali land, then this is the huge profit of monopoly!

So he couldn't wait.

Although it is impossible to form a caravan openly and openly, and dump salt into the Principality of Lions in batches, you can secretly use a small amount of fine white salt and sell it on the black market. I believe that many people will definitely break their heads.

This fine white salt represents more than just a condiment.

It is also a spell-casting tool that the magicians in the Mage Tower need, and the nobles ensure their dignity.

In short, Kant is not worried about sales.

PS: If you have suggestions, you can say them in the book review area, and I will refer to them carefully. However, this is a new account, so I can't reply, please forgive me...
