Chapter 82: Prestige Rises
There are really a lot of people on the mountain, after Jiang Chang'an's experiment, Song Fuzi's promotion, the villagers rushed to the mountain to burn salt, although the private salt can not be sold, but it can also be given away, no one is too much.
In order to prevent looting and causing turmoil, Hong Li Zheng directly divided the land for each family on the mountain, of course, he had to pay a name fee, which was equivalent to buying the barren mountain, and at the price of the wasteland, he could not buy more, otherwise there would be more salt produced, and someone would secretly take it to sell, wouldn't it hurt other people in the village?
This is also the idea given by Song Fuzi, otherwise Hong Lizheng would not dare to let the villagers blatantly burn salt, it is a public thing, and it cannot be sold without salt.
Now buying the land to burn salt for personal use is also walking in the gray area of the law, if the court asks, they are afraid that they will also suffer, but fortunately, there are many people, but they are not afraid of being beheaded.
Anyway, the Jiang family bought it, because the alkaline soil is burned with fine salt, which is much more delicious and easy to use than the salt on the market.
The white stone mountain will not care about it for the time being, ice is not a necessity for people's livelihood, and people who have no special use will not make that ice to use, saving sugar, and sugar is a very expensive thing, not every household has it.
Jiang Changan took a few classmates to Baishi Mountain, and many people greeted her kindly along the way.
Everyone used to laugh at this kid for being stupid, but now it's slapped in the face, fast and ruthless, like a tornado.
Jiang Chang'an can make salt, ice, pottery, carpentry, and key reading, when they laughed at Jiang Changan before, did they look more like fools in the eyes of this child?
The old Jiang family has developed by relying on a little fool, and the Jiang clan is regretting it, and I don't know what big move I am holding back, but can I beat Jiang Changan this time?
People even catch Zhang Kuai correctly, some villagers have secretly seen it, and it has been spread all over privately, and now, no one dares to mess with Jiang Changan, and there are a few students in the private school on the mountain, people are really good at kung fu.
And Jiang Changan didn't know that her prestige was rising, her purpose was ore, and only after the problem of food and clothing was solved and her life was stable, she would have the leisure to talk about her feelings.
"This is the ore? How is it not red? "The mines in the book are all said to be red, Jiang Fengshou asked suspiciously, they are picking up yellow stones now, this is also ore? He hadn't heard of it anyway.
"There are many types of minerals, including hematite, of course, pyrite and ilmenite. This is ilmenite, which has anti-rust function and is very effective. "As long as it is added to the main mineral, it can change its form and make harder refined iron, which is also the main material for the eye frame.
Jiang Fengshou, I don't know what you're talking about, as if your family is the one who strikes iron.
The blue-gray ilmenite is found near Baishi Mountain, but there are not many, but it is enough for Jiang Chang'an.
She only picked up a small half bag and rushed back.
"You'll still refine?" What kind of world was she in? Why does a girl's family even know how to refine iron, and call out metal words that he has never heard of, Li Shushen is becoming more and more curious about Jiang Changan.
"Not really, it's the first time." Who let her have a certificate system, as long as there is a need, there is nothing that Jiang Changan does not dare to try, after all, the cost is really low.
Scold! Is that okay? Let's see how she conjures spells.
Several people carried the ore and went straight to Jiang Fengshou's home.
Jiang Changan threw the ore to Li Shushen, "You help me crush it, and I'll go to Uncle Tie to renovate the furnace." "The kind of furnace that can make iron and make iron, Jiang Changan even has prepared the calcination materials for cement, and it can definitely raise the temperature of the furnace to the maximum bearing capacity.
Li Shushen was dumbfounded, was he used to being used by Jiang Changan? You're not at all welcome.
Jiang Fengshou's home is in the most remote part of the mountain village, and the neighboring households are quite far apart, because the movement caused by the iron is too loud and too noisy.
Jiang Blacksmith didn't expect Jiang Changan to return so quickly, and he also brought materials to the door, so what are you waiting for, the work will be over.
Under the leadership of Jiang Changan, a group of people suddenly became busy, and the scene was very lively, and it was booming when they looked at it.
As soon as the furnace was ready, the fire was fired, and Jiang Changan operated step by step according to the recipe written to Jiang Blacksmith, refining iron, making titanium, and making a few glass mirrors.
Titanium is used as the frame of glasses, and in addition to the glass, the glass is of course ground into lenses, presbyopia-colored transparent lenses.
When the finished product came out, the people who worked together were stunned, it was amazing, obviously using a dusty material, it was able to make such a fine product, it was said that it was a spell, but all of them were involved in the forging production, which could not be faked.
So, this is technology, butγIn fact, they just look lonely, the glass mirror can see but not, but the ironmaking ginger blacksmith will be able to use it in the future.
This kind of sharp weapon that can break hair, how many people can do it today? It's too precious!
"Chang, Chang'an, can you not refine the iron with such high precision, it will cause trouble." Jiang Blacksmith is a transparent person, and he is not greedy, he knows what his identity is, what kind of goods he matches, and things that are too good are definitely not good.
Jiang Changan was installing the lenses, and said without raising his head when he heard it, "Yes, as long as you add less titanium, in fact, after renovating the furnace, you can make more refined iron without adding titanium, and it is enough to use it as a farm tool." β
But her woodworking tools are different, the saw must be hard, sharp and wear-resistant, Jiang Changan is reluctant to let her grandfather and father work too hard.
"I won't say it either, but, Uncle Tie, can you give my father a sharper pig-killing knife and bow and arrow, he is more dangerous to hunt in the mountains every day."
If there are sharp weapons, who is afraid of those jackals, tigers and leopards? Zhang Zhuzi was very tempted.
"There are still extra materials here, uncle, this will call you. You also helped with the work today, and my uncle won't charge you money; Chang'an's not only does not collect, but also gives a share every day; Is there anything you want in the book? Uncle will build one for you, too. β
Jiang Blacksmith was in a very good mood, and thought that the days of ironwork were about to come to an end, who knew that Jiang Changan helped their family come back to life, and he must thank this child.
"No, what I need will let Chang'an fight." He needs a soft sword, I don't know if Jiang Ling'er has this technique, Li Shushen looked at Jiang Changan, and his expectant gaze was undisguised.
"Uncle Tie doesn't need to give me a share, with the good relationship between our two families, I can't care about this little thing, but if I want to make something in the future, I hope Uncle can make it convenient."
It costs a lot to strike iron, and ordinary farmers can't afford such consumption, so Jiang Blacksmith is already very kind.
Knowing that he can't compete with Jiang Chang'an, Jiang Blacksmith is not good, anyway, he gives a gift, "Jiang Tiezi's family welcomes you at any time." β
This is the second time he has inherited the love of Jiang Chang'an's family, and he must repay it.
Jiang Changan made four palm-sized mirrors, of course, her own one was the largest, and there were two adults with the largest palms.
In the end, he divided one person into one piece, "This is a glass mirror, don't show it to outsiders for the time being, just keep it for your own use." When Jiang Changan sent the mirror, he specially advised.
"Know, don't worry, we won't say anything."
Jiang Changan nodded, packed up his things, and then went to find Master Song.
Li Shushen went with her, and Zhang Zhuzi waited for Jiang Blacksmith to make bows and arrows for their family.
