Chapter 2970 Shocked

The prince nodded, "That's right, Gu also stayed and took a look at this method of drying salt." But he didn't doubt Bai Shan. He was full and had nothing to do to deceive them about it?

But he thought it was interesting and good to have a look at.

The prince stood on the edge of the field and watched them put the salt into the frame covered with linen cloth. They needed to pick out the salt and dry it again before receiving it into the linen bag.

But at this time, the salt is only a little moist, and it is a finished product.

The prince looked at the output of a salt field, nodded slightly, and simply continued to walk along the salt field. Along the way, he saw more than 20 salt fields, but their progress was different, and some were only a shallow one at the bottom. Layers of salt crystals, some have been disintegrated into blocks, the color is very dark, need to go to the third step, dissolve in water and then dry.

The prince was still most interested in the first field, looked around and said, "I've walked all the way, and the first field in each row rarely sees salt crystals." Unlike the second field and the third field Pieces of fields, as long as there are crystals, they are all in pieces.

Bai Shandao: "The first field doesn't have to wait for the salt crystals to come out. After drying to a certain concentration, it can be put into the second field. Of course, the sun is good now, so the occurrence of salt crystals will also increase, and the speed will also increase. It will be fast, these first fields were washed into the sea and newly dried in the past few days."

The prince returned to the first field, pointed directly at the salt field, and said, "Put the water in it, and I will personally watch it fill with water, and then dry out the salt."

The imperial censor was also about to make such a proposal. Seeing that the prince had mentioned it, he said, "His Royal Highness, this minister wants to guard this salt field in person."

The prince responded and pointed him to a team of guards.

The censor turned his head and explained to Zhou Man, "Master Zhou, it's not that Xiaguan doesn't believe in Magistrate Bai, he just wants to see with his own eyes how the sea water is dried and turned into salt."

Zhou Man looked inexplicable, nodded and said, "Look."

She and Bai Shan didn't stop him either.

The Censor took a serious look at Zhou Man and felt relieved.

Bai Shan introduced Zhou Liwei to the censor, "This is my nephew. He is very experienced in drying salt. If you have any questions, you can ask him."

The imperial censor was even more satisfied. Although what they saw with their eyes was like this, it would definitely take some skills to dry the salt, and it would be better if someone pointed it out.

After watching Yantian, the prince looked left and right and asked, "Is there a village nearby?"

"Yes," Bai Shan pointed in a direction and said, "It's just a little distance from Yantian. When you turn the corner, there is a depression, and the village is there."

The prince looked at the distance and nodded with satisfaction, "Yes, it should be farther away from the village."

After all, salt is involved in the great cause of people's livelihood. If it is too close, it is not good to mix it with the lives of the villagers.

Bai Shan asked the prince and others to go to the side, and said, "Your Highness, it's getting late, it's too late to go back now, we can only stay here for one night."

He said: "I asked people to build two rows of houses, and the village is also rudimentary, so the aggrieved highness and the princess will stay here for one night."

The prince didn't mind, he slept well on the high bed with soft pillows, and he also lay on the grass in the wild, but he was wise...

The prince turned to look at Mingda.

Mingda's attention was on the sound of the rushing waves, and he didn't pay any attention to it.

Seeing her expression, the prince knew that she had ambitions, so he waved at her and said, "Go and play if you want. I have to discuss things with the adults."

Mingda grabbed Zhou Man and asked, "Do you want to participate in politics?"

Zhou Man shook his head, "This is county affairs, and it has nothing to do with our medical department. I don't have to participate."

The most important thing is that if she wants to know, she can quietly ask Bai Shan at night.

Mingda was happy, and took her to salute the prince, "Brother Prince, then let's retire first."

Pull Zhou Man and leave.

Without any hesitation, Bai Erlang saluted and followed.

Prince: ... even if you don't follow him around, this time is a rare credit, can't you stay and listen?

Even if he came up with half an idea, he would be able to give him credit when he looked back.

Bai Erlang has gone after Ming Da and Zhou Man.

Yin Or also smiled and bowed to the prince before stepping back. He was not an official, and it was even more impossible to stay here.

The prince watched the guards and the palace maid walk away, shook his head and said to Bai Shan, "Let's go."

The houses here are simple, and the best room should be the small yard where Zhou Liwei lives.

It was also on a row of houses, but at the very edge. Considering that the Lan family was also here, Bai Shan specially asked them to build a small yard. There were two main rooms, one of which was the main room.

This time, it was directly vacated for the prince to live in.

Everyone went into the main room and turned around, but they all came out with chairs and stools. Some people didn't even have stools, and could only stand or sit on rocks.

Bai Shan and the county magistrate Lu belonged to those who did not have a seat, so they stood together.

It was too hot in the house. At this time, the sun was already standing on the top of the mountain, and it was about to go down. The sea breeze was blowing outside, but it didn't feel too hot, but it was a little hot inside the house, and the light was still dim.

Eunuch Wu placed a chair in the yard, and the prince sat on it with a golden knife, raised his chin slightly, looked at everyone and said, "Just now Zhou..." The prince looked at Bai Shan.

Bai Shan: "Liwei, he ranks second in the family."

The prince nodded slightly and said, "You have all heard Zhou Liwei's answer, what are your thoughts at this time?"

Inspector Guo sat in a trance. He had a lot of thoughts. For example, where did this method of drying salt come from? Did Bai Shan come here to be a county magistrate, or did he just come here for the salt field?

If it is only for the salt field, is the salt drying only suitable for them in Qingzhou, or does the court want to start with Qingzhou?

For another example, who is the salt farm after all?

Did they belong to Qingzhou, or did the imperial court take over directly?

But he couldn't ask any of these questions.

Others are still in shock, and at the same time have a premonition that the sky is going to change, no, no, it will not change, but if it changes, it is also the sky in Jiangnan, and they may be led to change. Dot.

Tang He and the imperial censor were the quickest to accept it. After all, they received a little bit of news before leaving the capital, so they quickly recovered.

He glanced at the censor, and the censor was also turning his head to look at him, then the two of them lowered their heads together and said in unison, "I will listen to the prince's orders."

The prince curled his lips and said, "I don't have any special orders, just one thing, this matter must be kept secret first, and no one is allowed to spread it out."

No matter what everyone thinks in their hearts, they all agree.

After speaking, the shock disappeared a little, and then everyone began to care about the salt drying, such as when did the new salt farm start drying salt, and how much is the current stock...

Bai Shan replied one by one.

The crown prince just sat and waited, and after they finished asking, he said, "Okay, I'll be here today, everyone, let's go back to rest first, Master Tang Ning Yushi and Magistrate Bai stay to accompany the orphan to talk."

Governor Guo glanced at Bai Shan when he got up and left, and left with the county magistrate.

See you tomorrow
