Chapter Forty-Eight: The Yin and Yang Family is Good!
Zhao Si himself was also dizzy, and Wang Li and Banla were hanging on him, allowing Zhao Si to be born with great strength and go erratically.
But for Wang Li's brother's sake, Zhao Si didn't give Wang Li the ground.
can feel it, Wang Li is really excited, in fact, Zhao Si is also a little excited, eating hot pot and drinking with the first emperor, he has only seen this plot in the novel in his last life, and he has become the protagonist in his life.
Although I can't talk too much about the integration of this era, but!
That's the First Emperor!
As for Wang Li, the great filial son, he was oppressed too much by his father......
On the other side, the First Emperor in the middle of the drive was half-lying down, holding his stomach up, and putting one hand on his stomach.
Eat up!
Although the food on weekdays is delicacies from the mountains and seas, it is bland and tasteless, and recently I have a poor appetite.
With a sudden appetite and fresh and delicious condiments, it's easy to eat too much without moderation.
The First Emperor was in a very good mood, and his communication with Zhao Si was also relatively pleasant.
Although Zhao Si's main focus is a political novice, Zhao Si's speech is very interesting, and it is a rare pastime to listen to the story.
The First Emperor had a good impression of Zhao Si.
Political novices can be cultivated, after all, Zhao Si went to sea with the ship when he was a child, and now he has just returned to Daqin.
What is rare is that Zhao Si can actually let go in front of him.
Although there may be a reason for drinking a little wine, the First Emperor can feel the informality and freehand in Zhao Si's bones, and Zhao Si's attitude towards himself is not not deferential enough, but like ......
Well...... Facing the elders? In short, it is not the attitude of the subordinate to the superior.
The most important thing is that the First Emperor can feel that Zhao Si and himself have a restless heart, as well as a risk-taking factor buried in his bones that is not afraid of risks.
It's just that Zhao Si's adventurous spirit is reflected in nature, and the adventurous spirit of the first emperor is embodied in politics.
In short, Zhao Si left the impression on the First Emperor that he was a young man who was neither humble nor arrogant, spoke interestingly, brought a lot of good news to himself, and seemed to be relatively close to him, and had the same adventurous spirit as himself.
One, huh...... Very good young man, one of the few children who can make the first emperor's eyes shine and arouse interest at this age.
Of course, this is only the summary of the First Emperor himself.
In fact, it is not known how much of these summaries are due to individuals and how much to the aura of jade.
At least with the character of the first emperor, it is difficult to label a person with a good impression in a short period of time.
Good impression and approachable!
These labels were extremely difficult for the First Emperor to give to someone.
On the contrary, the first emperor didn't know how much he wholesaled for those labels such as capable ministers and officials.
Driving slowly, the First Emperor was a little lazy, although he didn't smile, he didn't smile twice, but this time he came to Lantian and the First Emperor was in a much better mood.
I saw that the sweet potatoes and corn potatoes were growing well, and I still had an appetite, and I ate delicious hot pot barbecue......
Back in the palace, Zhao Gao moved down the bamboo slips summarized by Wang Ben one by one.
The first emperor's personal secretary, Meng Yi, was responsible for counseling the first emperor to summarize and summarize.
"Wonderful!" Meng Yi looked at it with a smile and sighed.
"Your Majesty, this method of drying salt can solve the dilemma of insufficient salt production in various places!" Meng Yi spoke.
Except for the coastal areas such as Qidi, the rest of the world does not produce too much salt.
Including Shu salt, compared with the majority of salt production, it is not enough to mention.
If you are serious, the salt production of the entire Daqin is not enough for the whole world to use, and salt is really a scarce resource in this era.
Including the people of the large salt producers, they also have to save salt.
Although there is a lot of salt in Qi, it is the method of boiling salt, which requires a lot of firewood, and the production process determines that the price of salt remains high, even if it is at the source of salt, the price is still expensive.
If you use firewood to boil salt out of seawater, how much firewood do you have to boil to get a pound of salt? The cost price of these firewood is not exempt.
As for the rest of the region, not to mention, there are very few edible natural salt mines. Well salt production is lower. From Qi to Shu to transport salt, the turnover of the world is quite consuming.
How to describe the current salt production of Daqin?
The cost is high, and there is not enough to eat.
Let's just put it this way, even if the salt production of Daqin is increased by five times, it can still be completely digested internally.
As for what if there aren't so many now? It's a good job.
The poor have the poor way of living, follow the animals to lick salt stones, eat jealous cloths, and even directly eat poisonous brine salt.
Of course, the poor people have more tips for replenishing salt, and if they don't have enough to eat, they can't eat, but they can live.
If the amount of salt in the stir-fry of three meals a day is taken as the standard by modern people, I am afraid that the salt production of all feudal dynasties is not enough.
"According to the description, the cost is no more than brine mining, manpower sieving water, casting salt ponds, salt ponds can be beaten on wasteland, and the cost is probably lower than the method of boiling salt in the same place." Meng Yi said excitedly.
The cost of salt production in the Central Plains has been directly reduced to the cost of salt production in the coastal areas, which is a huge progress.
As for the brine mines, there are really not a few in the Central Plains.
"And if this method is used for Qidi, I'm afraid the cost is even lower!" Meng Yi had excitement on his face.
Because Zhao Si said that there is no need to open salt mines in coastal areas, and it is enough to directly divert sea water to make salt in salt fields.
The steps are much the same!
Skip the cost of mining and transporting brines!
Qidi salt production can reach a new low!
The most important thing is to get rid of the trouble of boiling salt and burning wood.
Firewood he has to be wood first, not ...... There is a big reason why the amount of salt in Qi land cannot be increased, that is, it is not that you can invest as much firewood as you want to burn salt, otherwise with the dilemma that there is not enough salt in the world, Qi would have directly crushed the six countries economically.
First of all, you have to have so many trees to burn in Qi country, right?
Therefore, the wealth of Qi salt can become the hegemony of Qi country, but it is not enough to open an insurmountable gap.
To put it bluntly, Qi produces a lot of salt, which can not only satisfy itself, but also generate income from exports, but it is not so much that it directly controls the salt industry of the other six countries.
"It's a pity! After all, it depends on the weather! Meng Yi sighed and said.
The First Emperor didn't have any expression on his face, just nodded.
"If you want to do the method of drying salt, I am afraid that there must be a place for stargazing, in order to ensure that the weather is not worried, if there is wind and waves, before the salt comes out, there is a risk of abandoning the previous efforts." Meng Yi spoke.
Of course, the First Emperor knew this truth, Meng Yi had already said very clearly, there are limitations to drying salt, because it depends on the sky to eat, although the salt drying method is stronger than the boiling salt method, but the good weather is only a few days throughout the year, and the salt will be much more than the boiling salt method, and the cost will be much lower, but as soon as this method comes out, Daqin's salt can really be squandered wantonly.
Before industrialization, the salt drying method was at best able to achieve self-sufficiency for export on a limited basis.
"The trial of salt pans was opened in the land of Langya...... You're in charge. The First Emperor knocked on the case and frowned.
"That being the case, Your Majesty has to leave some Yin Yang family disciples to Yu Chen." Meng Yi smiled and spoke.
He is one of the few people who can be so close to the First Emperor, after all, he is the personal secretary of the First Emperor.
Hello Yin Yang family disciple!
In these years, all families and factions basically look at the stars with one hand, but the Yin and Yang family is undoubtedly one of the higher attainments. Meng Yi himself studied the Mo family, and he didn't eat the Yin and Yang family, but he came to see that the weather was very good.
This kind of work of watching the weather and eating is indispensable to the yin and yang family.
(Don't mention the theory, only the practical application, the Yin and Yang family go to sea, communicate with countries from a distance, and be a weather forecaster, and he is really a little expert.) Recommended ticket, monthly pass, fast voting channel. In addition, ask for follow-up. )
