Chapter 124: This taste, sour and refreshing (7 more monthly passes)

Chen Dexing shrugged his head, he didn't have the slightest sense of luck.

It's just that Chen Dexing thinks that Chen Kaizhi is really clever, so he can fool others

It's just that...... What kind of refined salt is made...... How do you feel that this Chen Shengren's words are not reliable at all.

Chen Kaizhi was not in the mood to care about Chen Dexing's thoughts, and directly began to ask the salt seller to get the things he needed.

The salt-making process of this era is indeed miserable, for example, the salt in the basket of salt dealers is the rough processed well salt, and there are many minerals in it that have not been filtered out, yellow-brown, and condensed into lumps! The taste, Chen Kaizhi has already tasted it, the bitter taste also overshadows the salty taste, if this thing is placed in the future generations, I am afraid that no one will dare to eat it.

But Chen Kaizhi knew that the salt making of the Great Chen Dynasty was at this level, so don't count on the taste.

As for the finishing of this coarse salt, Chen Kaizhi is still very confident, because as long as he has basic chemical knowledge, it will not be a problem, and junior high school students can.

He took a deep breath, knowing that this was the one who could protect his life now, and while he was preparing to get busy, Chen Kaizhi was also casually looking at these salt dealers.

Over here...... It was supposed to be a stronghold for salt sellers, probably used to stock up on goods, as there was also a backyard that presumably contained a cellar or storehouse.

Obviously, this is not a small gang, and a single stronghold is so large, so the scale of this gang is only afraid of more than 100 people.

All of them were equipped with weapons, and the weapons were by no means ordinary, at least those few crossbows, most likely from the army, were of high value in the market.

There should be more than 30 salt sellers living here, with a clear division of labor and each performing its own duties, and this high level of organization shows that their leader is by no means an ordinary petty person.

This gang of salt dealers is actually a big wave of sand, not only to fight with officers and soldiers, but also between various salt dealer gangs, I am afraid that there is fierce competition between each other.

The result of a failed competition is death.

Because of this, the leader of the gang that can develop and grow, and can still thrive, is definitely not a mortal, and the people he recruits are all capable people.

Several people were staring at Chen Kaizhi at any time, obviously just in case.

So at this time, of course, Chen Kaizhi would not be stupid enough to want to resist or run away.

What he can do now is to refine the salt, and at the same time, not let them master their own unique secret skills, because once they master it, then they will lose the value of use.

A person who has lost his use value can only die for the salt dealers.

For this reason, Chen Kaizhi asked them for a lot of things, of which sixty or seventy percent of the things were useless things, just to hide people's eyes and ears.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Kaizhi asked Chen Dexing to fetch a bucket of coarse salt, and there was a mill next to the patio in the backyard here.

Of course, some other 'ingredients', Chen Kaizhi also added some in a fake way, in order to mix the pearls, who would have thought that this coarse salt was refined into refined salt, which was so fine, but saw that Chen Kaizhi pinched this very carefully, and pinched a handful of that dazzly, people who didn't know thought that Chen Kaizhi was refining what kind of elixir.

In fact, these 'ingredients', in the next, were thrown into the water by Chen Kaizhi and the salt powder grinded out, and then covered with a cloth and filtered out directly.

Of course, the guards apparently didn't know what it was called.

On the contrary, they feel that Chen Kaizhi is very 'professional', as if the more things Chen Kaizhi adds, the higher the compulsion.

After filtering the salt powder dissolved in the water, Chen Kaizhi went through several more processes, and finally let people set up an iron pot and start boiling.

After the solution boiled, Chen Kaizhi let it cool before saying to one of the salt sellers: "Brother Tai, do you want to come and taste it?"

This is salt water, and it will eventually need to be dried into powder, but this salt water alone can determine whether the salt is good or bad.

The salt seller was tall and as tall as a bamboo pole, and he seemed a little hesitant, but under the 'encouraging' gaze of the others, he finally sneered: "Taste it, taste it." ”

He stepped forward, reached out and dipped the pot in salt water, then put his finger in his mouth and took a sip.

The other salt dealers all looked at Chen Kaizhi with murderous looks, but their attention was on the salt seller who tried it.

These salt sellers, in fact, do not believe in the so-called refined salt.

In essence, it's just because Chen Kaizhi's indifferent attitude frightened them, a scholar, who keeps saying that he can greatly increase their profits, is indeed very attractive.

Of course, this is also very likely to be very small.

But so what, it's only an hour or two anyway, it's just an hour or two, and now it's a matter of closing the door and beating the dog, even if he is fooled by Chen Kaizhi, as long as he pokes it, he doesn't want to kill it

The salt seller first sneered, and when he took a sip, the expression on his face became strange.

Another bearded salt seller suddenly looked tense and said sharply: "Sixth, isn't it poisonous."

As he spoke, he shook the knife in his hand and looked like he was about to split.

This person called Lao Liu, but suddenly shouted: "Wait! ”

And the word slow is categorical.

It can be seen that the sixth child is very urgent.

Lao Liunai is an old salt dealer, he has followed his own people to sell salt since he was a child, and he has been in contact with well salt and sea salt, even if it is the fine salt of rich and noble families, he has also dabbled in it.

Speaking of which, Lao Liu is definitely an expert in the salt industry, and because of this, he is very familiar with the taste of every salt.

But......

At this time, the sixth child's eyes were full of shock.

The taste of this brine ...... There was no trace of bitterness, and at the taste buds, a rich salty taste spread throughout the body, both in taste and taste, it was many times better than the salt I had been exposed to before.

He looked horrified, as if he had a delusion, and reached into the pot again, and sucked it again.

It's still the same taste, as if there are no impurities, just the purest saltiness, without the slightest bitterness.

This taste...... What does it taste like...... It's sour.

Until this moment, his eyes lit up suddenly, and he said happily: "Compared with this salt, the salt we sell is no different from that of a dog." ”

Lao Liu is not a literati, so whenever metaphors are involved, it is inevitably indecent.

But such an exaggeration made several other salt sellers stunned.

Everyone here is until, the sixth is an expert, what he said must be credible......
