Chapter 451 Self-knowledge

Zhao Bing, who made up his mind, intentionally or unintentionally revealed his intention to attack Quanzhou in the subsequent chat. 21?? 6 Xiufu's performance was not surprising to him. Apart from worrying that he had returned in vain the past two times, he had no objection to attack Quanzhou, but he still made reserved support.

However, Xu Xiufu secretly scolded the little emperor for being too cunning. He first used the construction of salt fields to make profits as bait, forcing him to agree to his intervention in the government affairs. But then he turned around and told himself that he had a way to "get rich" faster, which made you itchy. He was worried that the child was digging a pit for himself and setting up an ambush for him. He made him make money before making money, and he could not take back what he said. Therefore, he would see if he had any other tricks later and then make a decision after finding out the details.

In the next few days, 6 Xiufu didn't dare to chat with His Majesty easily, for fear of being plotted by this kid again. Zhao Bing had no time to pay attention to them. He had to prepare for the site selection of a salt farm. First, the salt content of the seawater should be high and the salt drying standard should be met; further, the transportation is convenient, which is convenient for the transportation of finished products and the supply of materials; and also avoid the invasion of typhoons to avoid destroying the salt fields; finally, it cannot occupy the reclaimable wasteland and must have a large enough area. Among them, high salt content is the most important, otherwise it will not be labour-intensive, but the output will be low.

Don’t think about the modern measuring instruments in this era. Zhao Bing can only use it in a civilized way. When he visited, he did not remember the name of the “Xiancao” used to measure the concentration of brine, so he could only find another way. Current people should find suitable objects as concentration meters based on their accumulation of experience and make it a secret. However, in his opinion, modern junior high school students can see through the mystery. What the old salt workers use is just the relationship between the density of objects and liquids and the buoyancy, but they just don’t know the principle.

"Your Majesty, do you want to fish again?" Wang De saw His Majesty make a few small wooden balls, punch holes on it, inserting a thin piece of wood, and it looked like a fish float. He thought that the little emperor must have felt lonely on the journey and wanted to go fishing on the deck again.

"No, there is no time to fish now. Go and find me more coarse sea salt!" Zhao Bing put a small piece of lead weighing at the end of a 'fish float' without raising his head, "Oh, I'm looking for a big bucket for me."

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Seeing the little emperor busy, Wang De agreed and asked someone to prepare to deliver it.

When he was young, he was delivered to the door. Wang De's face immediately turned black. Those people brought him a whole bag of salt, which was at least a hundred kilograms. This studio was the place that His Majesty valued the most. No one was allowed to enter without ordering him. Even if he cleaned, Wang De took the initiative. But now he could only move these things in person.

"Go, get a few more buckets of water. Each bucket of water must be weighed. It must be exactly ten kilograms per bucket. Don't make mistakes!" Zhao Bing looked at Wang De's preparation of the basin and salt. He grabbed the salt and looked at it. The salt was gray and white. He twisted it with his fingers. It contained mud and sand. It was the coarse salt that had not been filtered and purified. I thought it was used for pickling vegetables and meat in the kitchen. After testing, he nodded with satisfaction, pointed to the wooden barrel and said again.

"Your Majesty, what are you going to do?" Wang De ordered someone to deliver the water and brought it in one by one. He asked in confusion.

"Call the sea!" Zhao Bing asked Wang De to pour all the water into the big bucket and said with a smile.

"Call the sea?" Wang De was stunned when he heard this. Was the little emperor crazy? He actually wanted to use a wooden barrel to weigh the weight of the sea.

"Silly guy!" Zhao Bing smiled and put the 'fish floats' in his hand into the bucket one by one, and after the water surface was stable, marking the place where the pole was flush with the water surface. Then he calculated on the paper and asked Wang De to weigh one pound and two taels of salt into the bucket, stirring continuously until the salt dissolved, put the 'fish float' in it again and mark it again, and then repeated this many times before giving up.

"Your Majesty, okay?" Wang De asked when he saw that His Majesty finally stopped.

"Okay, carry it out and let someone get a bucket of sea water!" Zhao Bing said casually.

"Oh!" Wang De agreed, and couldn't help but complain that His Majesty was not a sensation. He was clearly trying to make trouble for himself. Thinking about it, he didn't seem to have punished His Majesty recently!

"It's done, it's it!" This time, Zhao Bing did the opposite. After typing through the sea water, he used a fish float to measure the sea water, then boiled the sea water, weighed the scraped salt foam, and after calculating it, he breathed a sigh of relief. After a long time of struggle, he actually built a concentration meter to measure the sea water. Although it is not accurate, it is enough to measure the salt content of the brine. Of course, there are other functions. If you can obtain data from multiple sea areas, you can judge the approximate area you are in based on when you are on the trek.

"Your Majesty, what's the use of this?" Wang De asked curiously after being busy for a long time.

"This has many functions, and it is used to build a salt field. We can judge how much salt there is in the seawater and brine based on this, and we can know whether we should enter the next process and when the seawater becomes salt." Zhao Bing tried to explain it to him in simple language.

"Oh, Your Majesty is so amazing. You can turn sea water into salt with just such a small thing." Wang De carefully took a piece and looked carefully. He saw that the words A, B, C, D, Wu, Ji, Geng, and Xin were marked on the pole. It was the data measured after adding salt many times. He understood a little.

"Wang De, I want you to be a military supervisor in the salt affairs supervisor, how about it?" Zhao Bing said suddenly.

"Thank you, but... but I won't go!" Wang De's eyes lit up when he heard this. Everyone knew that the salt manager was in charge of the salt transactions. It was a fat errand. It would be easy to get tens of thousands of coins in a year, but after thinking about it, he gave up this opportunity.

"Why? That's a great job that many people want!" Zhao Bing said in surprise.

"Your Majesty, because I know that I am greedy, I will inevitably reach out to get the money if I go. But this money is only used by Your Majesty to restore the country. If I take it, I feel uneasy and may not be able to do it well, so I will not go!" Wang De said.
