Except for what was in her space.

I ate fifteen catties of marbos, twenty catties of python meat, a palm-sized snake heart, and a finger-long ginger.

There are a cubic of rare keels and dozens of various common herbs that are used in medicine.

Other bits and pieces, including Fu Minglai's ancestral jade pendant, Liang Bo's ancestral medical book, a large basin of snake oil, a snake skin, and an unknown white package.

When she and Fu Minglai met a giant python in the mountains before, Fu Minglai stuffed this package into her when she escaped.

She casually put it into the space along with the ginger.

As a result, he was so busy with the giant python that he forgot about the package.

Qin Min picked up the package and went to the thatched house next door.

The people in the room were sitting on the beds against the wall, holding an embroidery needle, and they were sewing and mending sackcloth with flat expressions.

That sackcloth wasn't the one that fought with the python.

The one that fought with the giant python was too badly damaged, and Fu Minglai asked people to pick it up, and dismantled it as silk thread and cloth to sew up the damaged clothes before.

Fu Minglai heard the voice, turned his head to look at Qin Min, and couldn't help but pause when he saw the package in her hand.

Qin Min glanced at the embroidery needle that he held between his fingers, and the sharp embroidery needle seemed to have shrunk twice in his big thick hand.

It's just that, contrary to the clumsiness that is revealed, he does a good job of needlework, and the stitching is very smooth where it is sewn.

Qin Min walked to the side of the bed and handed him the package, "This package was what you asked me to protect before, I forgot about it." ”

This package should be a very important thing, otherwise Fu Minglai would not have entrusted it to her in such an emergency.

Fu Minglai didn't take the package, continued to fill the gap in his clothes, and said lightly: "This is for you, you don't have to return it to me, you can open it and take a look." ”

Qin Min's face was a little more surprised.

She opened the package, which contained a number of paper packets.

Qin Min opened one of the paper packets, and the paper bags contained more than twenty shriveled red ...... Pepper?

She was stunned for a moment, and opened another paper bag, which contained an octagonal one.

So the rest of the paper packet ......

Qin Min's face flashed with joy, "Are these the condiments I asked for before?" ”

She just said that, but she didn't expect him to actually get it.

With the condiments, will the stewed meat be far away?

Fu Minglai hummed.

Qin Min's eyes lit up, "Where did you get so many spices, I didn't even see you leave the thatched hut much." ”

Fu Minglai said with a flat expression: "I raised a bird, and it helped me bring it in." ”

It's just that the bird hasn't done much of this kind of work, and he is not skilled in business, so he was slow to send it to him for a few days.

Qin Min was envious, "That's really convenient." ”

I don't know what kind of bird it is, but I can also help deliver couriers.

Fu Ming looked at the small package and couldn't help but shake his head, "That's why I can only ship such a few things." ”

Qin Min was overjoyed after getting so many seasonings, and was about to rewrap the package and go back to the room, but his hand couldn't help but freeze.

There was a palm-sized blood stain in the fold of the white cloth, which had not been exposed before.

Qin Min's back was inexplicably cold.

She hadn't thought too much about it before, so it seemed that this package might not have come easily at all.

Now the outside world is that a pound of rice can sell people.

And many of these condiments are very precious, but I am afraid that it will be in her hands after a fierce competition.

Fu Minglai followed her line of sight, saw the bloodstain, and said lightly: "This is cinnabar." ”

Qin Min, "......"

Did this person really think that she couldn't tell the difference between cinnabar and blood?

Fu Minglai said without blushing and heartbeat: "Someone should have knocked over the cinnabar and accidentally stained it on the cloth." ”

Qin Min saw that he had added a few words, and he was a little angry and funny.

She was silent, but still said cooperatively: "...... It turned out to be cinnabar, which looked strange and seeping. ”

Whether it's cinnabar or bloodstains, it's not something she can manage, it's good for her to manage the snow in front of her court.

Qin Min carried the package, returned to his room, and opened all the paper bags in the package.

Dozens of small paper packets, more than a dozen kinds of condiments, and even more complete than the types of seasonings she said before.

She took the peppercorns and star anise, which were very dry, and she didn't know if they could be grown.

She still doesn't plan to use these seasonings to cook, she will take them to the field first, and then she can realize the freedom of seasonings when they are planted.

Anyway, she didn't dare to say that she wanted these spices anymore, and who knew what others had paid to get them.

The next day.

Qin Min is giving Fu Ming acupuncture.

Liang Dawei walked into the house with a look of embarrassment, "Boss, those salts are running out." ”

Qin Min, "......"

They're running out of salt.

Before, when marinating meat and rabbit meat, they took out salt cubes from time to time, and whatever she wanted, it seemed that she couldn't use them up.

She couldn't have been more surprised.

Qin Min looked at Liang Dawei and frowned, "Are you going to buy salt now?" The salt outside must be expensive. ”

Outside the mountains, the people are now struggling to make a living, and the price of salt is afraid to be very high.

According to the old saying "three quintals of rice and one catty of salt", the price of modern ordinary rice is two yuan a catty, and three quintals of rice is 600 yuan, 600 yuan a catty of salt.

Although such comparisons do not stand up to scrutiny, there is no doubt that salt is expensive, and sometimes even used as currency.

Liang Dawei shook his head, "The salt outside is too expensive, we can't afford it, so we can only cook it ourselves." ”

Qin Min was stunned when he heard them say that he cooked it himself, his mind turned around, and he said in surprise: "You don't still have a salt well, right?" ”

In ancient times, salt wells were not easy to make, unlike water wells, which were about ten meters deep, and were generally hundreds of meters deep.

Manpower can't chisel so deep with bare hands, and it takes decades to chisel a device similar to a drilling rig.

Liang Dawei shook his head.

"There are no salt wells, only salt mountains."

Qin Min, "......"

There is a dazzling to.

This doesn't seem to be any different from saying that you have a mountain of gold.

Liang Dawei looked at Qin Min, "Does the little lady want to go to Yanshan to have a look?" ”

Of course Qin Min wanted to go, how could she not be ready to dig for gold, but she was worried that her physical strength would not be able to keep up.

She hesitated, "Will the salt mountain be far away?" ”

Liang Dawei thought for a while, "I have to go for a day or two." ”

Qin Min was shocked when he heard this, "Then you can't get out of this deep mountain?" ”

When they took her into the mountains, she fell asleep, not knowing exactly what time she was on the road, but certainly not more than a day.

It takes a day or two to get to the salt mine, isn't it out of this deep mountain?

Liang Dawei shook his head.

"It's in the opposite direction, and you can't get out of this deep mountain."

Liang Dawei added: "Actually, it was okay when I went, but when I came back, I had to carry a bunch of salt on my back, and it would take two or three days." ”

Qin Min nodded, carrying a pile of heavy salt cubes on his back was so tired, his feet would naturally be slower.
