In the early morning of the second day, Master Xuanru took two young monks, escorted by several cloaked monks, and hurried to Yegao Village to reunite with his mother. He will live there for a while, and then follow Masaara's arrangement to visit all the Luo family's territories to heal the people of the disease, and when the temple in Notaka Village is built, he will return to settle there. The newly built temple will be named "Chung Kao Temple".

After bidding farewell to Xuanru, Masahiro began to be busy with another matter.

"Your Highness, the address has been selected according to your requirements, what do you think of here?" , Recruited by Masara from the wild high mountains, the Luo family built the Shinsuke pointed to a beach by the sea and said. He was originally ordered to build the lord's mansion on Notaka Mountain, but two days ago, he suddenly received an order from the lord to report to Kurayama Castle immediately, so he immediately rushed to Kurayama Castle with a few craftsmen requested by Masara in the letter, and the renovation of the lord's mansion was temporarily handed over to Yubei to be responsible.

"Are you sure you chose exactly what I wanted?" , Masarashi asked, carefully inspecting the beach at his feet.

"Yes, Your Highness. In order to meet your request, Your Majesty has been observing for two days with a few men, and every time the tide rises, the sea water can overflow the calves while standing here; During the day, the sun here is also very fierce, and even the subordinates cannot last half an hour in such a sun; At night, the sea breeze here is very strong, and the wet clothes can be dried by hanging on the shore for half an hour; What's more, it's private enough that as long as some fences are erected, people from outside won't be able to see what's going on inside," said the honest Shinsuke, patting his heart. It seems that in order to do a good job in the task assigned by Zhengliang, he has personally gone into battle in the past two days to have a good experience.

"Okay, then let's start immediately according to the original requirements", Masarashi nodded and said.

Zhengliang plans to build a piece of the Luo family's own salt pan here. Sea salt is too important to the daily life of the people of the territory, and it is also an indispensable material for marching and fighting. At present, the territory's sea salt reserves are all obtained from war, and due to the lack of production capacity, the territory will soon fall into the dilemma of lack of salt.

Why didn't Zhengliang use the method of boiling salt or frying salt? The main reason is that the above two methods require a large number of tools, which are generally iron pots, and the problem is that iron tools are good things, so it is better to use them to forge weapons, and these two methods are too time-consuming. In the end, Masato decided to use the method of drying salt in seawater. Although the typhoon season is about to begin, it is also nice to be able to dry a little salt.

In my memory, this method of drying salt from seawater is called the salt pan method. In this way, the salt pan is generally divided into two parts: the evaporation pond and the crystallization pond. When the seawater is introduced into the evaporation pond, when the water is evaporated to a certain extent by the sun, it is poured into the crystallization pond and continued to be exposed to the sun, and the seawater will become a saturated solution of salt, and the salt will gradually precipitate out when it is sunburned. This is the resulting crystal, which is the common coarse salt.

Now Masayo really can't figure out how to build an evaporation pond and a crystallization pond, so he simply builds a salt pond. He first had the selected beach level out a flat land of nearly twenty acres according to the height of the beach. The bottom of both flats is then filled with a slurry of cement and mud that is already being produced in the territory, and the bottom of the pool is bulldozed with a few logs. The result is a simple salt pan.

After the cement at the bottom of the pond was completely dried and formed, Masayo built several small ridges in the salt pan, dividing the salt pan into three pieces according to the terrain, and several water outlets were opened in all the ridges. All of this was done in two days. During this period, Masarashi temporarily built a small earthen embankment near the shore near the sea, mainly to prevent the sea from pouring into the salt pans that had not yet formed when the tide rose. …,

When the salt works were officially completed, Masashi had the small earthen embankment removed and replaced with a slightly lower small inclined embankment made of cobblestones. When the tide rises, the sea water can easily flow over this small inclined bank into the first salt pan on the lower side of the land, thus trapping the seawater.

After the sea water has evaporated in the first salt pan for a day and night, several gaps in the ridges in the salt pan are opened and the seawater, which is already a little thick, is placed into the second low-lying salt pan. After another day of evaporation, the second pan is lowered into the third pan in the evening. This was repeated for several days until crystals were formed in the seawater of the third salt pan.

On July 3, the ninth year of the Tenmon year, after telling Shinsuke the detailed operation method of the salt field, Masarashi hurried back to Kurayama Castle, and the selection of the territory of Ashigaru had been completed, and Tsuda Hiromune and Roshi Sasuke were in the castle preparing to report to Masaki.

"What is this, it's so comfortable to sit on! Could it be that His Highness is a bodhisattva who has caused so many good things? No, I also want to ask His Highness for one, so that I don't have to lie down all day after I go back, how uncomfortable it is", Masara just walked into the courtyard, and before he entered the council hall, he heard Tsuda Hiromune's voice from a distance.

"Tsuda-sama, please pay attention to your appearance, this is the residence of the head of the family, don't be rude," was the voice of Sasuke Roche.

"Sasuke, that's what's wrong with you. Look at the way you sit now, is there any difference between me. Besides, why are you the same as Heiji-sama, it's annoying. Before His Highness arrives, let's sit down," Tsuda immediately retorted.

"No, the status of this family is not what it used to be, and your demeanor will damage the majesty of the head of the family, please respect yourself, Lord Tsuda," Sasuke Roshi said unrelentingly.

"Hey! Finally, I have been quiet for a few days, and today I will be sinned again. Poor ah", Tsuda Hiromune said extremely desolately.

The little surnamed Yoshinomaru who was waiting outside the door of the council hall was covering his mouth and snickering, and when he saw Masayo coming back, he immediately curtsied and saluted, and at the same time hurriedly shouted, "Your Highness has arrived." ”

As soon as the words fell, the sound of the movement of the equipment immediately sounded inside.

After handing Yoshioka a text to Yoshinomaru to hold, Masarashi walked quickly into the council hall.
