Chapter 260 Salt

Field took the stone and looked at it carefully.

Despite their rough appearance, these bricks are very close to modern red bricks.

"Very good. As long as you find limestone, you can make cement and build a high wall." Field nodded with satisfaction and waved his fist excitedly, "Continue to burn and cure, and I will give you the rewards you deserve."

The short walls of Starry Night Manor do not give people a sense of security at all. It is difficult to even defend against wild beasts, let alone the tide of corpses in the future.

After praising the brick-burning workers, Field prepared to take Tisifa to continue visiting the territory.

"Also, don't forget to teach disciples. Each person you teach will be rewarded with a gold coin."

Before screening intellectuals, Field accepted many students. Among them, those who could not learn cultural knowledge came to learn technology.

"I want to build thick walls around the manor, then connect them to Starry Night City, and merge them into a giant fortress."

Field was excited just thinking about describing his future plans.

Tisifa listened with a smile and asked: "Sir, I noticed that you always give monetary rewards. They are your subjects, just let them donate."

"Ahem."

Field almost choked to death on his saliva.

As expected of someone from a powerful church, you know how to exploit. After all, she has been held up by believers as the incarnation of a god, and she has become seriously separated from the masses.

Of course, Field had no intention of letting her manage internal affairs, so Tisifa would stay with her as a cow, ah no, just as a combatant.

"Theoretically it is possible, but extreme environments cannot last long, and I am not willing to let the Night Territory turn into the Kingdom of Light."

Listening to idealistic words of gratitude every day is helpful.

"I want to make life easier for everyone, that's my promise. When it comes to having a better life, I haven't gotten my salt out yet."

The Griffin Empire's salt industry was very backward and its production capacity was insufficient. It often had to import sea salt from its arch-rival Franvia, which was horribly expensive.

The salt that Field usually eats will have a bit of a bitter taste, let alone the lower class people.

With a fist, Field immediately called workers to move the salt ore powder.

"Sir, can you make salt from these stone powders? This is poisonous. Even using Holy Light magic cannot remove the toxins." Tisifa shook his head, "You must not eat poisonous salt."

"The Holy Light is not omnipotent. It is normal to have specializations in the arts."

Hearing this, Tisifa subconsciously doubted it, but after thinking for a moment, she crossed her legs back and forth and watched quietly.

When he first set out, Field asked workers to grind the salt ore into powder, which saved a lot of time.

"Everyone, watch out. Pour water in first." Field called the guard again, "Bring the soybeans I brought back, and prepare some more large wooden barrels and linen cloth."

Field directed workers to pour water into wooden barrels of salt mine powder and stir them.

The powder in the ore gradually dissolves in the water.

Wrap an empty barrel in layers of linen.

"The next step is to filter and pour the water into this bucket."

As the solution is slowly poured onto the linen, the stones and impurities in it begin to accumulate, and the water poured into it undergoes changes visible to the naked eye.

"Add two more layers of burlap and repeat."

Field brought charcoal, which was burned a long time ago. It was piled up like a hill and had no place to use it. Now it is just used for detoxification.

"Please smash it into pieces."

Handing the charcoal to Tisifa, she was stunned for a moment, then took the charcoal with her white hands and said with a smile: "Lord, you are so rude."

"Click~"

Juanxiu's hand was surprisingly strong, smashing the charcoal to pieces in an instant.

Field poured the charcoal powder into the burlap and compacted it with other burlap: "Pour it into this bucket."

After filtering through charcoal, the solution poured out has turned cyan.

Boil the light cyan solution, and soon, white salt will precipitate, forming a large cluster of white flowers.

"miracle!"

The workers stared in disbelief.

It is obviously a basin of water, but it can actually produce salt. Needless to say, it must be a miracle.

Thinking that they had participated in such a great cause, the workers worked harder.

Tisifa opened her mouth wide and was equally surprised. She dipped her fingers into some salt and put it into her mouth: "It tastes salty, it's really salt, and I didn't feel any discomfort. You really removed the toxins from it!" "

"This can only be regarded as fine salt. Although it can crush most of the salt on the market, it is not enough."

"Ah? It's impossible. Such high-quality salt can already be supplied to dignitaries." Tisifa couldn't imagine it. She looked at Field up and down. "You must be His Highness the Prince. You have such a high taste for seasonings." need."

"Haha, Her Majesty the Queen doesn't even have a husband, how can you get a prince?" Field laughed and waved his hand indifferently, "It's not refined salt, it's no big deal."

"Grind the soybeans into soy milk, add the ore solution and then filter and boil it. What I want is refined salt. I have to do my best to make it."

"Why add soy milk? The two have nothing to do with each other."

"Because there are proteins and amino acids in soy milk, metal particles can attach to them."

Tisifa blinked her big eyes: She didn’t understand, but she felt very powerful.

In his previous life, he went to Kawachi and heard about this method. As one of the best salt production areas in ancient times, Field did not expect that what he accidentally jotted down would come in handy.

“Industrial areas are starting to get on track, especially with the production of salt.”

Field said "tsk", paced a few steps, and thought to himself: If we want to build a wall, we should enclose the industrial area first, otherwise we will face theft and the most serious technology leakage.

"We need to prepare a whole set of countermeasures in advance."

After taking Tisifa around the territory, Field returned to Starry Night Castle.

"My lord, I didn't expect the night to be like this."

Tisifa walked in the yard of Starry Night Castle with a complicated look. Not long ago, she was still a nun who didn't ask about the secular world, but in a blink of an eye, she became the chosen one of the nobles, just like the young girl who blushed when she touched her hand a moment ago, and suddenly became a mature woman who wanted to gain the upper hand.

"It's a little poor, but it has only been built for less than half a year, and it will get better."

Seeing her hesitant look, Field thought she disliked this place.

"I'm not saying this, but... you can't empathize even if I say it, so I won't let you worry about it."

Tisifa walked to the bench in the yard. The servant knew that Field liked to go to the yard to get some fresh air, so he put a bench here. Tisifa sat on it, then patted the bench, motioning Field to join.

"It's been half a year since the construction, and you just became an adult. I'm older than you, so you should call me sister instead of Miss Tisifa."

"Puff~"

Field looked strange. If she knew that her blood-related sister wanted to kill her, what would she think?
