Traveling through the farmhouse: there is room for the group pet Fubao

Chapter 41 Discovery
If you are not in charge of a family, you don't know how expensive firewood is, and Chu Tian doesn't know that ten families, including her own, really don't have much salt in their hands.

After breakfast, everyone looked for salt trees nearby. More than 100 "beggars" gang members and ten households, a total of more than 60 people, spread out in the woods on several small hills, and the wood salt trees were severely damaged.

Only Chu Tian didn't pick the fruit of the salt tree and the leaves of the tree. She sent Dabai away in the woods, and only took Xiaobai to look at the tree while thinking.With the thinking of modern people and born in such a wealthy family, Chu Tian's knowledge can be regarded as profound, and she can see things in a more comprehensive way.

Wooden salt trees grow everywhere. Could it be that the water and soil under the surface have a high salt content?Here is not close to the sea, where can the water and soil with high salinity come from?Are there salt mines here?

Salt and iron in ancient times were in serious shortage. If there were salt mines! !Get a few carriages of salt and pull it into the city, and you don't have to worry about the cost of settling down later.

Chu Tian took Xiaobai and asked her second brother to quietly look for places where salt mines might be found.

"Sister, hurry up and tell me what you want to do? The other family has already picked a lot of salted fruits. I have to help my mother pick more."

"Follow me first, and I'll tell you when I find out."

If a salt mine is really found, those bunches of salt fruits are nothing to worry about.

Chu Xiangbin understood the little girl's temperament very well, she was just talking like this, there must be something terrible, he consciously acted as a good guard, he was afraid that someone would follow him every step of the way.

How to find salt mines?You can't let the second brother dig the ground with a spear.

Chu Tian and Xiang Bin turned a corner and looked down the dry ditch on the mountain wall.

"Brother, you can pry open all these rocks and soil clods to have a look."

"Okay, look at my brother."

Last time the girl casually pointed to the underground water source, Chu Xiangbin really wanted to know what the girl was fiddled with this time.While digging, he pondered, then stared at Chu Tian in surprise as if he had thought of something.

"Sister, don't you think there is salt here?"

"Brother, I found that you are getting smarter and smarter."

Sure enough.

"Shouldn't salt be found by the sea?"

"There are many kinds of salt, sea salt is one, and there are well salt and mineral salt. If there is any here, it is mineral salt."

"How did the mineral salt grow at the bottom of the mountain?"

"Perhaps a long, long time ago, this area was the sea, and as a result, the sea turned into mulberry fields, and then the sea water was dried by the sun and turned into salt mines..."

"Okay, don't talk about those things I don't understand, just say that if you really dig a salt mine, how can you turn the salt mine into edible salt?"

"Oh my brother, this has to be dug first, and I'm just guessing that I can't make it right."

"Sure! Tell me quickly, what will happen after you find the salt mine?"

"Mine salt is the cleanest when it is boiled in a pot, and it is relatively easy to handle."

"How do you know everything?"

"Have you forgotten how I woke up?"

That's right, my sister was taught by a fairy.Thinking of this, Xiang Bin speeded up the speed of prying stones, without talking nonsense with his sister.

As the soil and rocks on the surface were dug up, revealing yellow-white crystals, the brothers and sisters tacitly broke off a small piece and tried it, it was salty.

Salt mines really exist!And very pure.

"Sister, sister, you are amazing!" With a bang, Xiang Bin no longer wanted his precious spear, and happily picked up the girl and circled around.

"Hush..." Chu Tian silenced her voice, "Second brother, don't recruit those 100 people."

"Then what do we do now?"

"Go back and discuss with everyone."
