Datang romantic little landlord

You can get sea salt by drying and boiling sea water, then you can get natural lake salt in the same way!

Salt is so expensive on the prairie. If the Huerte tribe learned how to make salt, would they not be able to make a fortune?

Although the grassland people did not eat salt originally, Li Wangyou believed that it was only because the salt on the grassland was too expensive.

If the price of salt could be cheaper, he did not believe that Tiele people would not like food with salt added.

Li Wangyou originally thought that after returning to Chang'an, he ordered someone to send some money to the Huerte tribe.But giving a man a fish is not as good as teaching a man to fish, and no matter how much money is given, it is not as good as the Huerte tribe's ability to create wealth.

After hearing what Li Wangyou said, Ah Du frowned, not understanding what Li Wangyou meant.

"Li Wangyou, what are you talking about? What kind of salt? How could the water in this bitter lake be salt?"

Li Wangyou didn't bother to explain to him, instead of spending a long time slobbering, it's better to extract the salt from the lake water and then tell them how to make the salt.

He walked quickly back to the sand boat, hoisted the sail directly, asked Ah Duo to show him the way, and went straight back to the Huerte tribe.

After returning to the tribe, he ordered Ah Tuo to take a few tribesmen, catch the carriage, go to the saltwater lake again, and bring back a cart full of water from the saltwater lake in large clay pots.

Ah Tuo went in without knowing it, but after hearing Li Wangyou said that he could get salt for the tribe, he stopped talking nonsense and led the people to set off.

After seeing Sha Zhou, Ah Tuo and everyone in Huerte's tribe believed in Li Wangyou's words, which saved Li Wangyou from many troubles.

After Ah Duo led the tribe to bring back the water from the saltwater lake, Li Wangyou immediately arranged for him to cook salt.

Li Wangyou doesn't know how to boil salt, but he still understands the general principle of boiling salt and drying salt.

It is to use high temperature or sunlight to evaporate the water in the water, so that the salt is continuously concentrated, and finally after the water evaporates, what is left is solid salt.

In fact, boiling salt is not suitable for grasslands, because the output is low, the cost is high, and it requires a lot of fuel consumption, and because there are few trees on the grasslands, the most lacking thing is fuel.

To extract salt from saltwater lakes, of course, the best way is to dry salt.

Fortunately, Li Wangyou was just going to demonstrate to the leader of Xijie and Ah Tuo, telling them that salt can be collected from saltwater lakes, so the method of boiling salt is the most convenient and quickest.

Ah Tuo and the others didn't know what Li Wangyou was going to do, but they still followed his instructions, set up the stove, set up a fire, set up an iron pot, poured saltwater lake water into it, and started to cook over high heat.

This cooking took almost three hours, and the crowds of onlookers changed from batch to batch.The crowd also changed from being curious before to whispering and discussing with each other in low voices, feeling that Li Wangyou's move was really inexplicable.

"Salt can be produced by boiling water all the time? Who has heard of it?"

"Shh, keep your voice down, I heard that the gods in the Central Plains can turn stones into gold, and turning water into salt may also be a kind of magic."

"Yes, that's not the case. Look at Li Wangyou's car, which doesn't even use cows and horses. It runs so fast. What is it if it's not a god?"

"Then why haven't I seen any salt yet? It's been cooking for almost three hours."

"Maybe I'm not sincere enough, don't talk anymore."

When everyone was discussing, Ah Dian, who had been listening to Li Wangyou's orders and kept stirring the salt water with a wooden stick, suddenly said, "Li Wangyou, come and see, why are white crystals appearing in this pot? "

Li Wangyou hurried forward, looked over, and couldn't help laughing.

The brine in the pot has almost evaporated, and the salt has begun to crystallize and precipitate salt particles.

Those white crystals are undoubtedly salt!

1020 The first of all flavors

Li Wangyou didn't care about the heat, so he dipped his fingers into the pot and put some white crystals into his mouth.

Immediately, Li Wangyou showed joy.

It really is salt!

The leader of Xijie and Ah Duan on the side couldn't wait to imitate Li Wangyou's appearance, reaching out to dip the hot salt grains in the pot and feeding them into their mouths.

"Bah, bah..." Ah Tuo was very greedy, grabbed too many salt grains, and was so salty that he spit again and again, but his face was full of joy: "Salt! It's really salt! Li Wangyou, this is really salt!" It's salt! I can assure you, it's exactly the same as the salt sold by those damn merchants in the market!"

The leader of Xijie also danced with excitement, yelling words that Li Wangyou couldn't understand.

Following the words of the leader of Xijie, the Huerte tribe suddenly became a sensation, and the crowd of onlookers crowded towards the stove for cooking salt, so frightened that Li Wangyou quickly stepped aside, for fear of being squeezed into the iron pot by the crowd , was forced to perform a tragic show of "stew yourself in an iron pot".

In fact, these salts boiled with saltwater lake water are not suitable for direct consumption.Because the lake water contains various impurities, it is necessary to filter and precipitate the salt again with clean water, and then boil the salt again to obtain edible table salt.

But Li Wangyou didn't intend to stop everyone, anyway, everyone just tasted the taste of salt out of excitement, it's nothing serious.

Although the Tiele people seldom eat salt, they also know the value of salt.

If your own tribe can produce salt, how beneficial is it?

Even these simple grassland herdsmen, after tasting the taste of salt, could not help but dilate their pupils, breathe thicker, and their eyes were red.

The entire Hult tribe is boiling!

The Tiele people sang again in a language that Li Wangyou couldn't understand, and danced around the stove where the salt was boiled, with great joy.

The wounded Li Wangyou was also dragged off the stage by Ya Ruoqiang, singing and dancing with the crowd.

It's a pity that although Yaruo is Ah Tuan's younger sister, she can't speak Chinese, so Li Wangyou couldn't communicate with her, so she could only smirk.

The leader of Xijie directly ordered someone to drag in a few fat sheep and prepared to slaughter them for celebration.

Seeing this, Li Wangyou quickly found Ah Dian and asked him to tell the leader of Xijie whether today's sheep can be handed over to him.

The mutton on the prairie is of course extremely delicious, but Li Wangyou felt that the way the Tiele people handled the mutton was really wasteful.

Now that salt was produced, he no longer wanted to eat those bland, bloody foods.

For Li Wangyou's request, the leader of Xijie naturally nodded in agreement.

After a few fat sheep were killed, Li Wangyou led Ah Duo to get busy.

In the Huerte tribe, there were not many condiments, but Li Wangyou couldn't care less about them. Under the simple circumstances, he arranged a whole sheep feast.

Roasted whole lamb, stewed lamb, lamb soup, stir-fried haggis...

It's a pity that Li Wangyou doesn't have cumin, otherwise everything would be perfect.

But even so, a whole sheep feast ate the men, women and children of the Huerte tribe, and almost killed themselves.

Since ancient times in China, salt has been the top of all flavors.

Without salt, any cuisine will be greatly reduced.Li Wangyou remembers that in later generations, he watched a food documentary called salty taste, which is a kind of spiritual experience distributed on the tip of the tongue.

Therefore, salt will bring a strong stimulation to the sense of taste.

Regardless of whether this statement is true or not, in short, when salt is added to the whole sheep banquet, the Huerte tribe re-understands the taste of mutton...
