Chen Yuan is indeed at home.

When Li Er brought Li Junxian over, he was dissolving and filtering salt water in the yard.

Seeing the two of them coming, Chen Yuan smiled and said, "Brother Qin, you are here just in time. Come and see me to make salt."

Making salt?

Isn’t all salt ready? What’s the point of making?

Or is there also brine at the foot of Mount Li to make salt?

But the problem is that it doesn't look like it. There seems to be nothing else here except buckets and basins!

Don't understand.

Li Er was confused, and Li Junxian was also confused.

Chen Yuan smiled and said, "Yes, it's just making salt, but it's not from scratch. Instead, purify the salt bought on the market, remove the bitterness, correct the color, and by the way, remove some impurities that are harmful to the body."

"Remove the impurities that are harmful to the body in salt? Are you sure?" Li Er was moved in an instant.

It doesn’t matter whether salt is bitter or not, whether it is astringent or not.

It doesn't matter whether the color is as crystal as snow or as green and yellow.

What’s important is that salt does contain ingredients that are harmful to the body. If you eat too much, you will be prone to illness after eating it for a long time.

This is a fact that ancient books have long recorded, and it is also an obvious visible fact.

However, this thing must not be ignored.

As the saying goes, one salty tops the top of all flavors and salt has been the first of the five flavors and the king of all flavors since ancient times.

You can’t cook without salt.

The human body must not lack salt.

Especially for farming tillers and people who work hard, without salt means they have no strength and cannot do work.

So, this is a very contradictory thing. On the one hand, he knows that eating too much is not good, but on the other hand, he has to eat, and even eat more.

As for the salt on the market, it is good. For example, the well salt from Bashu has white color and astringent taste. It is indeed available, but it is too small and the price remains high, which is not affordable to ordinary people.

In this way, if the ordinary salt on the market can be really refined so that ordinary people can eat good salt that is harmless to the body, it will definitely be a great merit.

Compared with the previous curved plow, it is probably not much inferior.

Chen Yuan smiled and said, "Of course it's certain. Although it can't be guaranteed to be perfect, it must be much better than what ordinary people often eat now."

After the verbal falls, another bucket of salt water is stirred and melted. As usual, Erhu picks up and pours it into a simple filter.

This filter, sitting on the wooden strips placed horizontally above a large wooden basin, is made by removing the bottom of the log barrel.

There is a layer of cloth on top, and there is also cloth at the bottom, and there is another layer of bamboo weaving.

In the middle, the black ones were all rinsed charcoal.

The dissolved brine is slightly cloudy. Pour slowly into the filter, filter it layer by layer and then it will be clear.

Li Er looked carefully and found that there were indeed impurities on the first layer of filter cloth, so that even the color of the cloth changed.

I couldn't help but nodded secretly, saying that although the method is simple, the effect seems to not be underestimated.

As a result, when the filter cloth was uncovered, I couldn't help but be stunned again when I saw the black charcoal inside.

"Is this, charcoal?"

Suddenly I felt that I was not doing well.

Charcoal, black, can I get this finished salt water?

Li Junxian was also thinking, completely unable to understand what it means.

Chen Yuan smiled and said, "Yes, charcoal, Brother Qin wouldn't think charcoal is dirty, right?"

Li Er shook his head: "It's natural that it's not dirty. But, is it sure that the salt water that has been released can be used?"

"Of course it can be used. Brother Qin didn't see it. The salt water came out, so it was clear.

If you are not at ease, Brother Qin can also try it to see if it is not that bitter."

Many people instinctively think that the charcoal is black when they see it, but in fact it is a misunderstanding.

After all, it can be dirty if it has been burned at hundreds or thousands of degrees?

Similarly, whether it is wood ash or pot bottom ash, it just looks dirty. In fact, from a scientific point of view, it is so clean that it cannot be cleaner.

Especially the ash at the bottom of the pot, it is a serious Chinese medicine called Baicao Crumble, which is a good hemostatic medicine.

Therefore, washing hair with wood ash, washing clothes with wood ash, and even laying wood ash when women come to their relatives, are not as incomprehensible as they imagined.

The filtration and adsorption function of charcoal can be understood by any serious study after studying junior high school.

It's just not as good as activated carbon.

Li Er finally remembered that the salt water that came out was really clear and transparent, like a clear spring in the mountain stream.

It was not as dark as I imagined as I imagined.

I couldn't help but secretly amaze it.

After dipping the chopsticks into salt water, it was still bitter, but it was not that bitter.

He asked, "What's the reason? Why is this salt water not black but white when it's white when it's too salty?"

Chen Yuan was about to explain a little while, suddenly a cry came.

"Brother Chen!"

"Brother Chen!"

"I'm here, promise someone's gift, are you ready?"

“…”

It's a coincidence.

It was Changle, holding the hem of the skirt, under the sun, her hair was flying and her smile was like a flower.

Even the sound was like a clear spring, which was a little sweeter and sweeter than usual.

The atmosphere suddenly became a little weird.

Chen Yuan didn't care much, and smiled and said, "A friend is a bit naughty and likes to sneak out to play with his parents on his back."

Li Er's eyelids twitched and he didn't make any sound.

Li Jun envied his eyes and his nose, looking at his heart, as if I hadn't heard anything, but his heart was overturned and he was about to laugh.

When Changle came over and saw it, he was stunned for a moment, but soon realized that he gave a polite gift: "Little woman Changle, I have seen two elders."

After saying that, he asked Chen Yuan with a smile: "Brother Chen, there are guests today. Did I not come at the right time?"

“Where is it?”

"It's just right here, wait, Brother Chen will perform a trick for you!"

Chen Yuan touched Changle's head and his doting and close look made Li Er's eyelids twitch, and he had no reason to try to cut off someone.

Li Junxian was also sweating profusely.

You can really kill yourself!

This is not a naughty child who sneaked out to play with his parents on his back. This is His Majesty’s favorite princess today!

Touching the head of His Highness the Princess, I can only say that young people have commendable courage!

Changle blinked, his long eyelashes flashed, and he was speechless.

Although, she did not reject this kind of closeness, although this was nothing compared to the previous hair washing and combing.

But, my dad is here too!

This kind of thing is more or less embarrassing for my father to see!

However, he was full of curiosity and expectation about Chen Yuan's so-called trick. So, he was still as innocent as a child who had never seen the world and said with a naive smile: "Okay, okay, Brother Chen, hurry up, Changle likes to watch tricks the most!"

Li Junxian: “…”

Li Er: “…”

Is this still the gentle and dignified His Highness Changle who is Zhong Min and Yuxiu?

Is this my daughter?

Because of Mao, my heart was so sad, as if some of my beloved babies had been snatched away?

Damn it!
