Chapter 212: Exceptional
Wu Zetian heard that Li Chengqian wanted to make salt, to be honest, she didn't believe it very much, after all, this is what adults do, what do children know?
And Li Chengqian said that he could do it, so she was also very familiar and didn't say anything anymore.
As for the end, let's see how it turns out.
"Si Shan, you go and prepare a wooden basin, burlap and charcoal!"
"What is this for?"
Si Shan asked.
I was still talking about making salt, why do you need these things now? These are completely unrelated things,
"You don't care so much, let you do it!"
Li Chengqian said with some unhappiness.
was so frightened that Si Shan said yes again and again.
At the same time, Xue Rengui and Feng Xiaoyue on the side also didn't know why, what was this prince going to do?
But they were smarter, they didn't say anything, they just watched quietly, in fact, if they asked, Li Chengqian would also reply patiently.
After a while, Si Shan prepared the things.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's things are ready!"
He said, pointing to something beside him.
"Add water and pour all the salt into it!"
Li Chengqian pointed to a large bag of salt on the side and said.
This is also prepared in advance.
"Ahh How do you eat that kind of salt if you soak it in water? ”
"Huh?"
"Yes!"
Si Shan didn't dare to say anything more,
A bag of salt was poured directly, and at the same time, Li Chengqian ordered Xue Rengui to stir, and the clarified water immediately turned turbid, which was full of impurities.
This scene stunned everyone.
Wu Zetian couldn't help but ask.
"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, are you okay with this? Can it be successful? ”
Li Chengqian said: "Look at it carefully, and you will know in a while." ”
He knew that if they didn't believe it, if they didn't believe it, they would have to let the results speak.
"Come on, get the sackcloth ready!"
Si Shan handed over the sackcloth, and he covered the pot with several layers of sackcloth, and ordered: "Xue Rengui, pour this water into the pot!" ”
"Yes"
Xue Rengui only obeyed, and did not have any other incomprehension.
In this way, the cloudy solution is poured into the pot, leaving a fine layer of substance on the burlap.
These are some impurities that are insoluble in water. The bitter taste is due to these things, and it will be better when reduced.
Looking at the water in the pot again, it is much clearer than before.
"Huh? Inadequate! A few more times. ”
After Xue Rengui listened to the order, he filtered it several times according to the instructions, and the solution had become very clear. It's no different from clear water.
The crowd was still puzzled, why did they do this?
"Huh? Almost! ”
Li Chengqian said after testing the water in the bucket with his hand. There is less bitterness, and there are basically no impurities, but there are still some things that cannot be seen.
Everyone is still confused, and they all have a question in their hearts, what is he doing?
"It's still a little bitter, but it's better."
"Si Shan, bring the charcoal!"
"Yes!"
Then he began the final step, which was to strain the charcoal again, sucking up the last impurities, and after a long time, he came up with a basin of colorless liquid.
He took a little more with his hand and put it in his mouth again.
"Huh? Not enough, come again! ”
After a few repetitions, I tried that the taste inside was no longer bitter, only a faint salty taste, which should be filtered clean.
Everyone looked at what Li Chengqian had done with great amazement.
Their eyes were full of shock, this is what the prince said about making salt?
How does it look like you're eating salt?
Not that way.
"Someone! Pour these into the pot and boil dry! ”
The next step was to boil, and the brine was quickly poured into the pot, and the fire underneath began to burn.
The water in the pot boiled, and a large amount of steam came out.
Slowly, these solutions began to become less and less.
As the water vapor disappears, the water in the pot gradually dries.
At the end, what was left in the pot was fine salt as white as snow.
Wow!
Everyone was in an uproar, is this white and flawless salt?
People have never seen this kind of salt, even if they have been cooking for so many years.
He walked over, ignoring the fact that the pot was still steaming, and directly dug out a piece and put it in his mouth.
It was so salty that he frowned, but he was reluctant to spit it out.
"Excellent! Oh no! It is superb salt! Pure gem salt! I have been cooking for so many years, and I have used as many cars of salt, but I have never seen such a crystal clear salt, this salt has no trace of bitterness, only pure salt. If it is this salt, it will be sold for more than 100 yuan. And it's still priceless! ”
This is probably the highest evaluation given by Si Shan.
Because it's so pure, there are no impurities!
Si Shan didn't seem to be finished.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a true god, I didn't expect the allergy of making salt to be so simple, why didn't we realize it before?"
Now everyone believes that Li Chengqian really knows how to make salt, no! It should be purified.
Since he succeeded, Li Chengqian has more ideas, and maybe he can use them to make money. That's a lot of money!
His words caused a stir among everyone.
The same is true for Wu Zetian.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really talented!"
She gave a thumbs up.
"Without him, in fact, this king only thought of the method when he watched the salt dissolve in water."
Li Chengqian said this, this is a kind of modesty in Wu Zetian's heart.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is too modest."
"Hahaha, let's not talk about this, let's talk about cooking."
Just now, people couldn't believe that Li Chengqian could cook, but after purifying the salt, everyone actually believed that he really knew.
People are used to pots and pans.
At this time, Si Shan was like a chicken blood, and he began to be busy with people in front of him, as long as Li Chengqian was in need, he must be in front.
Such a change made Li Chengqian a little speechless.
"What are you going to cook for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"
Wu Zetian asked more.
"It's naturally home-cooked, but it's definitely something you haven't eaten before."
"Oh? That little girl needs to taste it! ”
"Of course! Si Shan, have you prepared all the ingredients that this king asked you to prepare? ”
"Ready, here."
Si Shan pointed to a place not far away, where there were bags of vegetables and a few pots of meat.
"Bring the knife!"
"His Royal Highness the Prince, let the little one come with this knife, don't hurt you."
Si Shan said.
"You don't know what this king is going to do, just watch from the side and study hard, and you may have to cook this dish in the future."
All:......
They wondered, but they were silent.
Just nodded desperately yes.
Si Shan didn't understand, so he had to hand over the kitchen knife.
Li Chengqian is holding a kitchen knife, like a general holding a big knife, which gives people the illusion that he is now a general who fights the world.
