Chapter 55
"Go take a shower." Seeing the flash of her eyes, Qi, who originally wanted to buy and sell Guan Zi to tease her, blurted out his hole cards.
Ye Qingxin nodded, looked down at the snake blood on his chest, and nodded hurriedly, "Okay!" ”
Kai carried her through the mountains and forests, this man seemed to never know tiredness, and carrying a person on his back was like walking on the ground.
Soon, Qi found a bubbling mountain spring on the mountainside, put Ye Qingxin next to the spring and said, "I know there is a spring here, I haven't been here for a long time, it turns out that it is still there." ”
The spring is not very large, it is the size of a bathtub, but it is full of water, and it is bubbling out all the time.
The bottom of the spring does not seem to be very deep, and the water seems to be a little muddy, and the bottom is a little out of sight.
Ye Qingxin happily stirred the water in the spring water, and the slightly cool spring water made her squint her eyes, "Hmm, there is still spring water here, it's pretty good!" ”
As she spoke, she leaned over, took a handful of water in both hands and sprinkled it on her face, washing her crying dirty face.
"Tut-tut......"
The water is exceptionally soft, and there is a faint salty taste in the mouth!
Ye Qingxin was overjoyed, and quickly took another sip of water.
"Phew......"
Spit it out in an instant, the bitter and salty taste quickly diffused in his mouth, Ye Qingxin raised his head and looked at Qi with surprise on his face, "Salt brine!" Isn't this just salt brine? ”
"What?" Qi frowned, looked at her suspiciously, and asked, "What salt brine?" ...... Is it a pool of bitter water? ”
Ye Qingxin nodded desperately, "That's right!" This is the salt brine I'm looking for! ”
Qi frowned slightly, looked at her incredulously and said, "No, this spring has been there for a long time, and there will be many wild beasts to lick the salt water pool you said, but there are very few wild beasts here to drink water." ”
Seeing that he didn't believe it, Ye Qingxin held some water in both hands and brought it to his mouth, his beautiful eyes blinked, "You taste it, it's the taste, but it's just a little lighter!" ”
Kai took a sip of her hand and spit out the water, "It's bitter and salty." ”
"Yay! There is nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it! Ye Qingxin happily sprinkled the water into the sky and cheered.
"Are you saying you can boil salt out of the water here?" A subtle and complicated look flashed in Kai's eyes.
Ye Qingxin was only happy, and didn't notice Qi's expression, and nodded again and again, "Yes!" The water here is not very salty, but you see ...... here."
As she spoke, she reached out and plunged into the water, scraping the walls of the pool, and sending some of the yellowish-white powder scraped off her fingernails to Kai.
"These are the salt that has precipitated and some impurities, the salt is salty, and the other impurities are bitter, so the water here is bitter and salty. However, I can refine the salty salt and make edible salt! Ye Qingxin said excitedly, "So much spring water is enough for us to make a lot of salt, Kai!" In the future, I will make a lot of salt, which can be used to marinate meat, and I can also sell it to other tribes...... We can sell it for a lot of money, monopolize the salt sales of the entire forest tribe, and be an ancient salt merchant, hahaha...... When the time comes, you can count the money with the gold mountain...... Well, for the benefit of mankind! ”
"What...... Money? Qi saw that her eyebrows fluttered, but he didn't understand what she meant.
After all, in ancient times, there was not even salt, let alone money!
If the tribes needed something, they would exchange it for their own prey, females, firewood, stone axes, and other things.
It's already good for a powerful tribe to get enough food to eat every day, and there are still a lot of rich things to "sell", so there is no need for money to exist.
Ye Qingxin's face was full of black lines, and he was excited for a long time, but he didn't expect that the people here didn't have the concept of getting rich, which was really speechless.
