Once he realized that what was in the cup was really salt, Li Er suddenly felt like he couldn't think straight.
The whole thing is blank!
It’s amazing…
It's so delicate and snow-white, like something like jewelry.
It’s actually salt!
Changle and Queen Changsun also stretched out their fingers, dipped a little in the cup and put it into their mouths.
Suddenly, he also showed a look of shock...
"His Majesty!"
"Your Majesty, this...this is really salt???"
Du Ruhui and other ministers looked at Li Er in shock.
They captured Li Er's expression.
What’s in this cup is absolutely extraordinary!
Li Er nodded blankly.
Several ministers took a deep breath in an instant.
Really salt...really salt?!
They looked at each other and looked at each other.
Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling, and Wei Zheng nodded in agreement.
If this is really salt, this value...
Everyone knows that this matter must be clarified no matter what!
and,
Want to figure out if something is salt?
The method is very simple, you will know after you try it yourself!
So then...
Du Ruhui and the other three also stretched out their fingers and dipped their fingers in the salt cup.
Put it in your mouth and have a taste...
next moment.
The expressions and movements of the three people were all frozen.
My mind goes blank.
just.
This salty taste is perfect!
and……
Not a trace of bitterness!
The three of them were completely dumbfounded.
Oh my god...
That is to say.
The salt that Your Highness holds in this countryside...
It’s hundreds of times better than the tribute salt in His Majesty’s palace!
So amazing!
For a moment, the three of them wanted to say something, but when they opened their mouths, even their words became hesitant...
Wei Zheng frowned and was stunned for a long time before slowly shaking his head and looking at Li Sheng very seriously.
"Sir, this salt is truly the best in the world."
"Even the top-notch well salt that Old Wei ate in a famous mountain... was much worse than this salt."
"But I don't know where the young master bought this salt? What's the price?"
Wei Zheng said this,
Immediately, Li Er, Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling and others... all looked at him.
At this time, Li Er and the Queen did not say anything.
Several ministers almost acquiesced in their hearts that Li Sheng was the true inheritor of Li Er's legacy...
Therefore, Wei Zheng naturally wanted to know Li Sheng's daily life.
If it is extravagant and wasteful, then Wei Zheng will definitely talk about it too much!
Several other people felt something was wrong.
In fact, His Highness has been living among the people outside the palace for so long... Even if he lives a luxurious life, this is what His Highness can do based on his ability. It is somewhat unreasonable for Wei Zheng to be so harsh on His Highness...
but!
The salt today shocked them so much.
This is ancient times!
Salt is an extremely important material in both the East and the West. Even in Rome, the reward of good salt can replace the reward of military merit and title - it is conceivable that its value cannot be estimated by ordinary materials.
That's why,
Although they all felt that it was inappropriate for Wei Zheng to irritate his ears with his loyal words at all times, but...
Think about the importance of salt,
When Wei Zheng asked this question, everyone was silent and did not interrupt to change the topic...
But surprisingly.
As soon as Wei Zheng finished speaking, he saw Li Sheng smile slightly.
"It's just ordinary salt. Why buy it from outside? You can just make it yourself."
After Li Sheng finished speaking,
Several ministers, as well as Li Er, Empress Changsun... suddenly opened their mouths.
This salt was actually refined by Li Sheng himself.
That……
In other words, Li Sheng also has a method of making salt, and the salt he refines...is of this quality?
this salt,
Energy production?!
For a moment, everyone's minds went blank.
This salt can be sold not only in a salt and wine shop, but also in a jewelry shop!
But then I thought about it, and most of my excitement disappeared immediately - this salt is so exquisite, it is simply pleasing to the eye... It must be extremely difficult to make, it can even be said...
Maybe, this thing is like old wine or something similar,
If it were to be produced, the cost would probably be sky-high.
You must know that now, not to mention this snowflake-like salt, even the tribute salt brought by Li Er, ordinary people can never afford it.
Many people can only lick something like vinegar cloth, just to fool their sense of taste.
It’s just that the sense of taste can be fooled, but the body also has a need for salt, and it is a rigid need.
If you don't take in enough salt and sweat for half a day, your body won't be able to bear it.
But the people still couldn't eat it, which shows how hard-earned salt is.
With this thought, everyone felt relieved.
well……
Qiqi sighed in his heart, what a pity...
This salt probably cannot be copied everywhere, otherwise even if you can't make a profit and you can't lower the price of salt a little, even if you can eat this salt in your own house, it will be a top-notch enjoyment...
What a pity! What a pity!
No one asked anymore, but Li Sheng still enthusiastically wanted to explain the origin of the salt to everyone.
The main key is that there is a lake nearby...
However, there seemed to be no interest in seeing everyone, so Li Sheng said no more... This lake is a saltwater lake.
Li Er also sighed secretly, Lake?
There are probably high-quality salt wells near the lake. I'm afraid I'm overthinking this to benefit the people... Then I wonder how it is possible that there are high-quality salt wells everywhere.
Soon, everyone started chatting about other topics.
It’s boring to talk. Think about it, the teachers who came to Youzhou often lived in rural primary schools that they paid for.
When it was time to eat, Li Sheng stopped waiting for anyone and naturally started to eat directly.
During the banquet...
Everyone tasted the delicious food, but they sighed in their hearts. It turns out that there is a mystery of salt in this delicious food...
Salt, salt!
The working life of many people cannot be separated from adequate salt intake.
What a pity, what a pity...
But while eating and drinking, Xiao Changle was suddenly startled.
A pair of beautiful big eyes lit up, and he turned to look at Li Sheng excitedly.
"Master, master, if there is a lake near here...can you take the baby to go fishing?"
"I've always heard about fishing before, but I only saw it on trees. My baby also wants to fish..."
When Xiao Changle said this, his expression became a little gloomy.
After all, no matter how good the material conditions in the palace are, there are too many rules and there is nothing to play with.
It's still very boring for children.
But Li Sheng smiled apologetically, "Well... when master goes to Chang'an in the future, he can take Lele to go fishing by the Wei River. Then Lele can play with electric fish if he wants... But the lake nearby is a saltwater lake, and there is also a sunbathing lake.
There are no fish in the salt farm!”
"Why...why are there no fish?"
Xiao Changle was a little curious.
Li Sheng shrugged.
"The reason is complicated. There are not many fish in the first place, and the uncles and uncles near the village have to collect salt. Even if there are fish, they are all caught."
Xiao Changle nodded confusedly.
Just after Li Sheng said this, Li Er couldn't help it anymore.
"Sir, are all the villagers in the nearby villages mining salt by that lake?"
