One big and one small walking on the street, who is honest, there are not many things that can be bought on the street, at most it is food, and then grain, salted meat, cloth and so on. There aren't many things for the little ones.

Yao Lao asked Jia Yi if there was anything he wanted, and he shook his head and refused. Just wander around the street with Yao Lao and see what to see.

This town is called Sainsbury, and the lord is Gabrie Sainsbury, and his territory is generally referred to as Cyberland, but it might as well be called Cybertron. Because of its proximity to the Whispering Forest, fur is a specialty here. Every spring and autumn, caravans come to the town to receive goods.

In winter, there is often heavy snow, so there are no caravans, and in summer, it is too hot and not friendly to people and animals, and few caravans come.

In the spring, the villagers mainly collect the furs and salted meat that the villagers receive in winter, and in the autumn, they mainly collect all kinds of mountain goods, and also bring the furs. There is a tea fruit tree in the mountains here, and the seeds can be pressed for oil. The tea oil is delicious and nutritious, and it is as famous as olive oil from the northeast of the empire, especially in the south of the empire, and is more popular than olive oil.

There is also a salt lake in the territory, which produces table salt. It's not too big, but it can be sold to other parts of the province of Verfer in addition to being used by local people. Thanks to this salt lake, people here have cheaper table salt to cure salt.

This salt lake has been mined for a long time, and since it is not large, the salt produced is much lower and mixed with a lot of sediment. It is said that in the past, it was possible to boil snowflake salt.

In fact, there are salt mines in the mountains, but because they contain other impurities such as halogens, people will have adverse reactions when they eat them, and no one eats them except for animals licking and eating. When Jia Yi and his friends went to the mountains, they saw a salt mine.

Fur, tea oil, and salt are the three core pillar industries of Cyberling. Among them, the fur depends on the vast number of hunters, the lord only collects taxes, and the tea oil mainly relies on the mountain people to go into the mountains to collect tea fruits and squeeze them, and the lords also collect taxes.

The salt, on the other hand, is completely in the hands of the lord, and the entire salt lake, including the people who cook salt in the salt lake, is the lord's people, and no one else can interfere.

At this time, Jia Yi was in front of a salt shop, looking at the salt in these jars, he was thoughtful.

"Boss, how do you sell the salt here?"

"Oh, little one, did the family let you buy salt? There's coarse salt here, 13 coppers a pound. You see, the particles are large, clean, and salty. The boss said, pointing to a jar in front of him.

Looking at the salt in this jar, the ash is yellow, and if you look closely, you can see some yellow grains of sand.

This kind of salt is also used in Jiayi's house, but I haven't paid attention to it before, and I have eaten sand during meals, but at the time I thought it was accidentally brought in when cooking, and I didn't think it was a problem with salt.

The particles of this salt are larger than those of white sugar. When I was young in my previous life, I used coarse salt when pickling pickles at Jiayi's house, which is of course much cleaner than this. At that time, coarse salt was cheaper than refined salt, and it seemed that the refined salt was two pieces and eight cents of coarse salt. But then there was no coarse salt, and it was all refined salt.

In my previous life, when I was a child, a bag of salt of 500g only cost more than a piece, but now a pound of salt is about 400g and requires more than 10 copper plates. The weight of the other world is not the same as the earth, 1 pound is only about 400g, but this is only Jiayi's estimate, and there is no way to compare.

"Boss, how do you sell this salt here? Kaichi asked, pointing to the salt in a jar next to him. The salt particles are finer and look whiter.

"This is refined salt, coarse salt can only be obtained by washing and refining, and it costs 30 copper plates a pound. ”

"I've washed it, how do you wash the salt? Isn't it going to melt?"

"Salt washing is very skillful, only one layer of the surface should be washed off, and impurities of sand cannot be left, you don't understand it. Do you want some, it's much better than coarse salt. ”

Cut, isn't it just saturated salt water, what's the big deal, anyway, I'm also from nine years of compulsory education. Jia Yi despised the boss in his heart.

"Boss, is this salt the best? Do you have a better one here?"

After hearing this, the boss looked Jia Yi up and down, squinted his eyes and asked, "What?

Jia Yi knew that he didn't look like he could afford it, and said, "No, I just want to see it, and you don't have it here." ”

"Who said no, I'll show you, this is snow salt, and only real nobles can afford it. ”

This boss is not simple and pretentious, and it is completely different from those YYJH outside, so simple to show things to a person who can't afford to buy it no matter how you look at it.

Jia Yi didn't expect that he just casually tried the radical general's method, and the boss would fall for it.

The boss bent down and took out a jar under the counter, which looked different from the surface of the jar and was patterned.

Open the lid, push the jar in front of Kaichi, and say, "Look, how is it, real snow salt." ”

I saw that the salt in the jar in front of me was indeed different from the one in front, and there was no impurity in the blue-white salt, and the fine salt grains were crystal clear. Except for the slight blue color, it is not much different from the fine salt in the previous life.

Jia Yi stood on tiptoe, looked at the snow salt in the jar, pretended to be too little and finally saw the market, and said: "Wow, this is snow salt, so white! Boss, how much does this snow salt cost? Isn't it expensive?"

"Hehe, this is snow salt, and the Cyber Collar is no longer produced, so it must be transported from the southern seashore, and a silver horn is required. ”

A Gold Eagle is worth 10 silver coins each, and each silver coin is worth 10 small silver coins, which are also called silver slots. A silver coin is worth about 1,000 copper, and this exchange rate fluctuates.

That is to say, a silver slot is worth about 100 copper, which is about 8 times more expensive, rounded off, it is 10 times. Although the active ingredients of snow salt and coarse salt are the same, the price is indeed very different.

"It's so expensive! Thank you, boss, for letting me see. Jia Yi told the boss that he got the information he wanted, so he quit the shop and came to Yao Lao.

When arguing with the owner of the salt shop, Yao Lao didn't go over, just stood outside and watched Jiayi. When Jia Yi came back, Yao Lao asked, "What, Jia Yi, do you want to buy some better salt?"

"No, teacher, I'm just looking around. As soon as Jia returned, after speaking, he seemed to remember something again, and said, "Teacher, where in the town is there a place to sell fermented yeast?"

"What fermentation?"

"It's an introduction to wine. Kaichi didn't know if there was a concept of yeast and koji, so he had to put it another way.

"It's not early now, let's go to Makana for dinner first, and then go to the tavern in the south of the town, he will make his own wine and sell it, and there should be something you want. ”

After saying that, Yao Lao took Jia Yi back to Makana to eat together.

Because Jiayi wanted yeast, Yao Lao deliberately chose a tavern in the south of the city as a place to have lunch. They each asked for a barbecue and a small basket of black bread, and Yao Lao and Maca each asked for a glass of barley wine and gave Jia a glass of milk.

Although this barbecue lacks cumin spices or something, it tastes unexpectedly good, the skin is slightly charred, and the internal force is full of gravy, which is very tender.
