76. Sit and watch the sky
After a few more steps, I finally saw the large sea boats hidden between the island and the fjord, as well as the small fishing boats surrounding the area.
"Why did your ship stop?
The king's ships will not stop? ”
Lin Yi couldn't help but get angry thinking that he had walked so far.
Tian Shiyou hurriedly said, "Lord Wang doesn't know, our place is called Bird Island, and there are only two places where you can park your boat, one is the place where we got off the boat yesterday, called Pingfengao."
One is the Shangshui Bay in front of me, where I have settled since my ancestors.
Here, there is only one bad place, that is, there are many reefs, and you can't figure out the way, and if you don't pay attention, you have to sink the ship, and only from the southwest, you can get in.
We're coming from the northwest, but if we want to anchor here, we'll have to make a big circle and go around from the southwest, which will delay us for an extra day.
Therefore, he took the prince directly from Pingfengao and got off the boat directly. ”
Lin Yi's face was a little pale, and he said angrily, "It's not good there, for you, it's obviously good, and outsiders can't easily get in." ”
Tian Shiyou said with a smile, "That's nature, no matter how capable he is Du Sanhe, he can't enter my Shangshui Bay." ”
The reason for forgetting to glance down the mountain again, and said curiously, "Where is the salt field?" Why isn't there any? ”
All he could see was a few fishermen, a few sampans, and a bunch of children playing wildly.
"Lord Wang, please come with the grass people."
Tian Shiyou took the lead along the mountain road that had already been flattened, walked down the hillside, then along the long sandy beach, and finally turned over a steep cliff.
A large salt pan appeared in front of Lin Yi's eyes, like terraced fields, layer after layer, with no end in sight.
It has to be lower than the sea level, dig a gap, and the sea can flow into it.
More than 20 people were busy, some picking baskets, some pushing wheelbarrows, each performing their duties.
Lin Yi pinched a little salt and tasted it in his mouth, not to mention his teeth, there was a bitter taste.
Tian Shiyou said, "Lord Wang, the official salt costs a lot, and it costs ten yuan per catty, and our salt only costs two yuan per catty!"
Sold as third-class salt, it can also be sold for 20 wen per catty! ”
Lin Yi said, "You have also seen the salt used in the palace, what do you think of the salt with you?" ”
Tian Shiyou said with a smile, "The prince eats first-class salt, and the price of one pound on the market is at least thirty-five Wen, how can the salt of the grass people be compared with it." ”
Lin Yi shook his head and said, "You're wrong, this king also eats sea salt, and the traffic in Baiyun City is not smooth, so there is no place for this king to buy high-quality salt." ”
"Lord Wang!"
Tian Shiyou said loudly, "The grass people can distinguish between the best salt and sea salt!" ”
He felt insulted!
He is a salt dealer, how can he not distinguish between third-class salt and first-class salt! ”
Lin Yi said, "Could it be that the salt of Yong'an, Qizhou, and Wuzhou in the south of the Yangtze River is not sea salt?"
Why are people first-class salt? ”
Tian Shiyou argued, "Lord Wang, people are frying salt, and the salt of our Sanhe is sun-dried, which is naturally different." ”
Lin Yi glanced at him and said, "That's your level, Mingyue, teach them how to remove impurities from this salt." ”
As a young online writer, he has a wide range of interests and understands everything, but he is not good at everything and is mediocre in all aspects.
However, he was barely able to let him eat sea salt to remove impurities.
He has been doing this since he had eaten the refined salt he had brought from the capital.
It can't be said to be a success, after all, there is no scientific instrument to detect how much chloride, magnesium, lead, arsenic and other impurities are left in it, but at least the taste is already satisfying.
Very "ancient law".
It's a pity that the more ancient it is, the more it often inadvertently kills people, such as self-brewed liquor, self-boiled sucrose, methanol, and colonies are very normal.
He was timid and afraid of death, and he didn't dare to drink too much wine unless it had been stored in the cellar for a year or two.
There is always nothing wrong with respecting science.
Mingyue bowed and said, "Yes." ”
Lin Yi didn't give Tian Shiyou a chance to speak, and said directly, "Follow her to learn more, find a way to sell the salt at a higher price, don't be unmotivated all day long, sit in the well and watch the sky." ”
Tian Shiyou's face was red when he was said, and he could only stare at Lin Yi's distant figure.
Lin Yi looked at the coconut trees all over the mountains and suddenly wanted to eat coconut.
Hong Ying did not fail in his mission, and a large pile of needles could be dropped with a swing towards the coconut groves.
Lin Yi watched the guard Han Deqing smash down with a knife, and every coconut was empty.
"Is this a fucking coconut?"
Lin Yi is a little skeptical about life, why is there no meat and no juice?
Is this world different?
Han Deqing cut more than 20 more in succession, and Lin Yicai finally gave up!
The only consolation is that the sea I yearn for is genuine.
A person who has never seen the sea in his two lives, the sea at this time can satisfy all his fantasies.
Put on the big pants, plunged into the sea, surrounded by the guards, and before he could swim far, he regretted it.
It's sticky, and it's not so comfortable.
The sun was scorching again, and after swimming for a while, he simply went ashore honestly, and then washed himself clean at the mountain stream.
The only thing that could meet his requirements was seafood, oysters, scallops, kiwei shrimp, lobsters, geoducks, oysters, and during lunch, he unceremoniously asked the Tian family to prepare a full table.
After eating and drinking, under the coconut tree, before he had time to lie down for a while, he was woken up by Tian Shiyou, who rushed over.
"Lord Wang," Tian Shiyou said happily with a burlap bag, "It's really as you expected, first-class salt, really first-class salt!" ”
Lin Yi yawned and said, "Then don't talk nonsense, hurry up and do so." ”
Tian Shiyou laughed and said, "Lord Wang, now the grass people have confidence!"
Transported to the north, even if it is so cheaper than official salt, a large number of people are rushing to ask for it! ”
Lin Yi hiccuped.
Hong Ying glanced at Tian Shiyou, Tian Shiyou shrank his neck, and ran away.
After Lin Yi woke up, the first thing he did was to take a bath under the mountain stream, and as soon as he got dressed, he heard the child's cry.
"Damn, lose money!"
A man in his forties bared his scorched teeth, scolding and slapping a little girl with a withered head in the face.
The little girl only dared to cry, but she did not move.
As soon as Lin Yi frowned, the guard Han Deqing walked over and kicked the man out of the distance.
"Murder!"
The man let out a pig-killing cry.
Han Deqing pulled out the knife violently, and the woman immediately stopped crying and ran away without looking back.
Wen Zhaoyi walked over to the little girl, wiped away her tears, and comforted, "Don't cry, your face won't look good if you cry." ”
The next night, Lin Yi found that the man was tied to a tree, and Liu San, who was beside Tian Shiyou, kept flicking the whip.
The man let out a scream and begged for mercy, "Big boss, I know it's wrong, let me go." ”
Lin Yi snorted coldly.
Feel good.
