After getting on the right track, the salt is still very fast to refine.

When he got up the next day, there was already a thin layer of white crystals at the bottom of the pot, and Song Xuan asked people to fill the pot with water and let him continue to evaporate slowly.

Ten days later, there is a small half pot of salt in each pot, and the five pots add up, and there are still 300 catties.

The time to come out this time is not short, and even Wangcai is not as excited as he was at the beginning, and he doesn't want to move at all when he lies in the shade these days.

Song Xuan also decided to return to the tribe tomorrow, but the first thing to do was to refine the salt ore in his hand.

After smashing stones here for more than ten days, the work was very single, and everyone was a little bored, so after hearing Song Xuan say that he would be able to go back tomorrow, there was even a burst of cheers in the valley.

Everyone joined in the refining step, and the speed suddenly became much faster.

In order to speed up the evaporation rate, even the flame under the pot was a little bigger, so it would not have much impact on the quality of the salt, and Song Xuan didn't care about it anymore.

However, Song Xuan found that the salt refined this time seemed to be of better quality than the previous one, and it looked obviously not so yellow, and it was even better than the one traded from the wolf tribe.

Not only the quality, but even the output is a little higher, although it has not been measured carefully, but the improvement in this is still somewhat obvious, especially Song Xuan has been checking all the steps, this is not a small improvement, and he has also noticed it.

It seems that it is still due to the outer layer of ore, the quality is too inferior, this time the mining is slightly more inside, although the difficulty of mining is a little greater than before, but both in terms of quality and efficiency, it has been improved a lot, and overall it is very worthwhile.

In the afternoon, before the sun set, everyone had finished all the work in hand.

Next, just wait for the water in the pot to evaporate completely.

What needs to be done now is to clean up the valley a little, and everyone's life has been relatively messy in the past ten days, and the valley has also been ruined.

Clean up a little, and then take advantage of this time to get some firewood back.

Since I saved a lot of firewood last year, I basically didn't go out to collect dry firewood this year, and since I have time, it is just a good time to prepare for the next refinement.

Put the collected wood in the shed, as long as it is not in bad weather for a long time, it should be dry the next time you use it.

Now do a little more, the next trip will naturally save trouble, although the surrounding are forest wood, how much to have, but dry firewood is not want to have, if the weather is right it is fine, but as long as it rains one or two times, it is not so easy to collect enough dry firewood.

Salt and wood were indispensable, but fortunately there were many people, and by the time dinner time had already filled the two sheds.

The shed was also surrounded by wood, although there was no grass and mud wall, but just a row of wood outside could also block the wind and rain, and everyone also moved a lot of stones to pile around, which can be regarded as reinforcement.

In addition, all kinds of pottery and stone tools were also collected and put into a separate shed, this shed is the strongest, after all, if it collapses, the stone tools inside are fine, it is difficult to be destroyed, but pottery is different, and two pieces of wood can be smashed for him if they fall casually.

"Let's go, go home!"

When I came, I dragged and carried it, but I was relaxed when I went back, and most people didn't have too many supplies on them, basically a small bag filled with ten or twenty catties of salt.

When I got up in the morning, the salt had been completely dried, and since there was still a lot of water in the pot at night, Song Xuan arranged for everyone to take turns to keep an eye on it, and in the middle of the night, the fire below was extinguished, and the residual temperature was just drying it.

Although the five pots can be regarded as being refined at the same time, the final output is not the same, the largest pot can have almost eighty or ninety catties of salt, but the least is estimated to be only about fifty catties.

However, on average, one pot can have about seventy catties, and five pots are three hundred and fifty catties, which is a little more than Song Xuan estimated.

It's about thirty catties a day, and although the output is not much, it is completely enough in this era.

More than 20 people can get back a tribe in less than half a month, and salt is a very cost-effective thing for any tribe.

If these salt bas want to be exchanged, a tribe will definitely not be able to save enough food if they are not busy for a month or two.

However, the general tribe does not use it like Teng Snake, basically it can only reach half of the use of Teng Snake, which is already quite good.

The sheep tribe can't even fill their stomachs, so they exchange more excess food for salt, and they can barely taste it every time.

When I first came to Teng Snake's side, I naturally felt a little heavy taste, but it was still very quick to adapt, even the salt used by the Teng Snake tribe was actually not much in Song Xuan's opinion, and it barely met the daily needs of the human body, if it weren't for the meat, I even felt that it was not enough.

After not going back for so many days, Song Xuan also missed his rice a little.

Although one season of rice had already been planted in the tribe, Song Xuan was the only one who had participated in all the steps from beginning to end, and the others were mainly a little busier when planting and harvesting.

Before coming out this time, Song Xuan also observed that most of the seedlings had successfully survived, so he was so relieved to come out to mine salt, but fortunately, the weather has been good recently, and there was only a small rain in the middle of two days, which should not have much impact on the rice field.

With a lot of thoughts, everyone returned to the tribe after noon, of course, mainly because they didn't have much on them, except for some things that had to be brought back and salt, everything else was left in the valley.

There are some tools that you don't always think of, such as bringing three shovels this time, and if you don't want to repair the house, you probably won't bring them.

After pushing the boulder down the mountain, the re-digging of the canal still played some role, Song Xuan simply left it here, the ditch dug by everyone was still a little too fragile, and it must be maintained frequently.

Instead of having to bring it every time you come over, it's better to just throw these handfuls here, anyway, there are still in the tribe, and if you don't have it here, if you forget to bring it once, you can only get started when you really need to use it, and the tools are naturally much easier to use than human hands.

After this time after another upgrade, the salt refining system has basically been formed, although the output is average, but it is more than enough to meet the use of Teng Snake itself, and even the excess can take care of the surrounding tribes.

When there is no need for so many people to go out hunting and gathering next year, you can rest assured that you can boldly expand your production capacity, although the valley is not big, but it also has a lot of development potential, Song Xuan estimates that if it is fully utilized, it is not a problem to meet the consumption of the surrounding tribes, and this is still according to the standards used by Song Xuan.

It's just that when the time comes, it will definitely be a head-to-head confrontation with the wolf tribe, although the two sides haven't torn their faces yet, but they are not as harmonious as when they first met.

"Divine envoy, the salt is so white this time!"

"yes, it's almost the same as snow......"

“……”

As soon as the salt was taken out, everyone saw the difference between this time and the salt mined before, as for the same as the snow, it is still somewhat exaggerated, mainly because it is a little dim in the house, if you take it outside, you can still see a little bit of green, but it is already very light, and it is not obvious if it is not a large amount of salt piled together.

The better the quality of the salt, the lighter the miscellaneous taste in it, although in the eyes of this group of primitive people, it is still very necessary to improve the quality, otherwise it will not be filtered four or five times for every pot of salt, everyone has not eaten much good salt, even if it is exchanged in the Wuyu tribe, it is just a little better than before.

And the amount of food is not much, but Song Xuan believes that if the people in the tribe are allowed to eat the salt mined this time, it will be a few months before everyone tastes the previous salt and will definitely be able to feel the difference between the two, these salts Song Xuan has already tasted, although there is still a bitter taste, but it is already quite not obvious.

"Duo, salt is...... We got ......."

Looking at the snow-white salt, Shi Shi couldn't help but ask Shi Duo beside him.

"Well, the oracle found it~"

Hearing this, Zhen Shi, who had already admired Song Xuan very much, admired it even more at this time, but what he didn't know was that the discovery of salt ore really had little to do with Song Xuan.

I haven't participated in the exchange conference before.,So I don't know the origin of the salt in my tribe.,This blind date meeting was also carried away by the blind date.,I didn't pay too much attention to other things.,Until this time, I didn't know that Teng Snake also had salt.。

Only then did he react, no wonder Teng Snake was so generous with the use of salt, no matter how big or small, everyone had a small jar for salt, and once it ran out, he only needed to say a word to Shi Yan.

If this was in the Zhen tribe, he never dared to imagine that he could use salt like this, after all, salt in the Zhen tribe can only be used by the leader.

However, when he continued to ask about the origin of Yanba, Shi Duo couldn't answer him.

In the valley where the salt is mined, only twenty or thirty people know its location until now, and most of them are still the people who originally used to be Teng Snake, and everyone is also tight-lipped about it, except for Song Xuan every time he asks everyone to mine, this topic never even appears in everyone's daily discussion at other times.

A younger person like Shi Duo didn't even know where the direction was, but he knew that every time the divine envoy took a dozen or twenty people out, and after ten days and half a month, he carried back a lot of white salt.
