Chapter 397 Being caught will be very troublesome
Salt is really a big problem.
Does she still have to create her own secret scandal?
Du Wan really knows some methods of making salt. There are a lot of tutorials on the Internet. "Zhuang Cong, is the capital far from the sea?"
A little far.
How far is the journey?
The nearest sea is a journey on horseback that takes at least three days.
is not very far.
Du Wan asked again: "Are there any salt mines?"
"There is no one nearby." Zhuang Cong was asked and was about to break out in cold sweat. "Princess, the salt in Da Qin is a controlled product, and private individuals cannot make salt."
"Let me ask, where did you think you were?" Du Wan said frankly.
Zhuang Cong was relieved when he heard this, as long as he didn't break the law.
Du Wan didn't plan to say anything more, and just said to Zhuang Cong: "I will take care of the salt matter, and you can use the saved money to do other things."
Zhuang Cong happily agreed.
The problem of purchasing salt was solved in this way.
Next, Du Wan thought about going to the beach. This matter must not be known to too many people, and the people who go to the beach must be trustworthy. This should be done by Du Qian.
It was then that Du Wan realized that he had not cultivated his confidants.
Zhuang Cong can barely be counted as one, he posted it himself, and there is Ning Qin.
That afternoon, Du Wan hurried back to the city.
Pei Hao, who had been waiting in Zhuangzi for a day, was immediately heartbroken when he received the news that she had returned to the city. I didn't ask her to meet yesterday, so wouldn't she take the initiative to come over today?
Du Wan returned home and immediately went to find Du Qian.
Du Qian was surprised, "Sister, didn't you say you would stay for a few days?"
Somethings wrong.
Du Wan whispered what she wanted to do, and Du Qian was extremely surprised.
Du Qian asked: "Do you know how to make salt?"
This is not difficult, dont you know?
"have no idea."
"The simplest and fastest way is to boil seawater until only half of the water is left, then add seawater, and then add water when it is half boiled. Repeat this until the salt comes out." Du Wan said this is the simplest, It's just a waste of firewood, but it's suitable for her current use.
Du Wan added: "I need a lot of salt to pickle food."
Du Qian knew what she was going to do and directly gave her two hundred personal guards.
These people were the ones she gave to him originally.
When everything was ready, Du Wan asked Du Qian to talk to her parents. She would prepare a few more things and then lead the team to set off. All her three hundred personal guards took half a month's leave.
Three days.
Du Wan, who was riding a horse, led the team to the seaside.
If she hadn't brought anyone with her, it wouldn't have taken three days for her to come to the beach alone.
There is only one fishing village closest to the sea.
Du Wan and others rode over, causing quite a stir.
Du Wan said to a captain next to him, "Go and negotiate with the village chief. We have to stay here for ten days."
As ordered. The captain went over to negotiate with the village chief.
As long as they are willing to spend some money, no one will have trouble with Du Wan and others.
Several houses in the village were set aside for them, and a dozen large iron pots were borrowed and set up in a yard.
After closing the door, Du Wan acted as the commander, and a group of people worked together to boil the salt.
There is not enough firewood, so you have to go to the mountains to cut it, or you can buy it from people in the village. The people in the fishing village were very afraid of their group and did not dare to approach them. However, if you want to buy something, you only need to negotiate with the village chief.
Du Wan came to Da Qin and saw the sea for the first time.
Standing on the beach, I didnt leave for a long time.
She taught the others how to boil salt, so she became idle. She walked around the nearby mountains and then picked up a big wild boar, "An extra meal tonight." "Master, you are awesome!"
One of the private guards praised, "Thank you, Master."
This wild boar weighs two hundred pounds, right?
"about there."
When they go out, they have all been told to change their names to avoid exposing their identities. And Du Wan likes to wear men's clothes when going out. It is much more convenient and will not attract unnecessary attention.
Du Wan smiled and said, "Why are you so polite? Find two people to clean it up. Today's food depends on them."
Come down!
Ive tidied it up.
Two private guards came forward.
Both of them are skilled at killing wild boars very quickly.
As for the vegetables or seasonings you eat, you can exchange wild boar meat with the villagers.
Even if the villagers are afraid of them, no one will refuse when they make a request. Living here, what they eat most all year round is sea fish, and they may not be able to eat a bite of pork throughout the year. So, a small piece of wild boar can be exchanged for a basket of vegetables.
These vegetables are grown by the people themselves and are not worth a penny.
At the end of the day, Du Wan estimated that he had boiled dozens of kilograms of salt.
The pot was not left to rest at night, and some people were allowed to rest while others watched and continued cooking. In ten days, Du Wan didn't know how much salt he could get back, but of course the more the better.
When others are resting, Du Wan will also go back to the room to meditate and practice.
Time passed in a hurry for a few days.
Another foreign visitor came to the small fishing village today. It was a carriage, and all the accompanying guards seemed not to be trifled with.
Du Wan went out to take a look and was stunned when she saw Hu San beside the carriage.
Hu San, why are you here? Du Wan asked as he walked over, looking into the carriage.
At this time, the car curtain opened, and the noble prince showed his face, "Wanwan, I heard that you came to the beach to play, why didn't you call me prince?"
The game of God riding a horse!
Du Wan wanted to roll her eyes, "Who said I came here for fun? I came here to do business."
After speaking, she looked at the group of them again, "The fishing village is not big, so it may not be able to accommodate you."
It doesnt matter, they can sleep in the open.
The temperature will drop at night at the beach and the wind will be strong. Is that really okay?
"That's what they have to worry about." Pei Hao stretched out his hand towards her.
Du Wan took hold of him naturally and helped him out of the carriage. When he saw his feet on the ground, he said, "Hey, I thought you would let me carry him again."
Doctor Bai said, I can walk now, but I cant walk for too long.
Hmm, lets go into the house.
Du Wan took Pei Hao to the house where he lived, and suddenly thought of what he meant by what he said just now. It was really impossible for him to be the one sleeping rough, and it was also the guards who were unlucky.
No, there is another she.
She gave him her room because he was a patient and needed special care.
That night, Pei Hao learned that he had occupied her room and would not let her go out to enjoy the air.
So it ended up being two people in the same room.
Du Wan was meditating in the house, and Pei Hao was lying comfortably on the bed. At the same time, he felt the benefits of her practice and silently practiced the health-preserving techniques.
Du Wan finished practicing and opened his eyes.
Pei Hao stopped, and after a while he whispered: "Wanwan, it will be very troublesome if you are caught making salt in private."
Thats why I came here secretly.
Bringing so many people to the beach, can it still be regarded as coming secretly?
Pei Hao can find out, and some people may also be able to find out.
