With Pinxixi in hand, I have a supermarket in the Changzheng!

After eating the delicious sea cucumber millet porridge, everyone started to get busy again.

Everyone has been really exhausted these past few days. We went out at dawn and returned home when it was almost dark.

When the tide went out in the middle of the night, they would go fishing with candles in their hands.

Although it was a bit hard, the results of these few days are still very good.

There is only a small amount of dried goods left to fill up the bed of a truck.

In fact, for Zhou Yue, this speed is still too slow.

And watching the comrades expend so much energy and get so tired every day just to harvest so much seafood.

She had long wanted to get a few big ships for her comrades.

However, we just got two large trucks for the team a few days ago. If we get a large ship now, it would be too coincidental, so we can only wait a little longer.

In the afternoon, when Zhou Yue was holding the bucket and wanted to go fishing for crabs again, Sister Chunyan stopped her.

"Ayue, let's not go crab fishing this afternoon. Let's go to the salt field in the village!"

"Salt-drying field?"

Zhou Yue's eyes lit up. She had been in the village for so long, but she didn't know there was a salt field in the village!

"Yes, the salt we usually eat comes from the salt fields."

"Wow! How magical! Let's go and take a look!"

Zhou Yue was really interested in this salt field. She wondered how seawater was turned into salt.

In modern times, salt is the most basic commodity. It is really cheap and you can buy a big bag for one dollar.

However, in this era, salt is a scarce resource. In some places that are not near the sea and have no salt mines or salt wells, it is very difficult to get salt.

Although Zhou Yue knew that sea water could be turned into salt, she really didn't know how to do it.

Zhou Yue still remembers an experiment she did when she was in junior high school.

The teacher brought over a large bucket of sea water and distributed some to each group.

Pour sea water into the crucible and heat it on an alcohol lamp.

As the sea water boiled, it began to bubble, and slowly the amount of water became less and less.

Then white particles began to appear, and after all the water was boiled away, a lot of white particles were left.

However, there are some other impurities mixed in these white particles.

Zhou Yue was curious at the time and put the white particles into her mouth to taste it.

I thought it would taste like salt, but it turned out to be very different from salt.

It's not the pure salty taste of salt, but a bitter and salty taste. You know it's inedible as soon as you taste it!

At that time, Zhou Yue didn't know why the sea water did not turn into salt after being dried.

When I grew up and studied chemistry, I learned that seawater contains not only sodium chloride, but also impurities such as sodium sulfate and magnesium chloride.

After the seawater is directly dried, these impurities cannot be separated and it cannot be eaten directly.

You can’t get salt by simply drying up sea water. So how can you get salt?

With this curiosity, Lin Hai followed Sister Chunyan to the salt field.

This salt field is very close to the sea, in a very flat and open area.

"Ayue, look, this is the salt field in the village. The salt we eat comes from here."

This large and very empty space was now divided into grids.

When Zhou Yue saw this, it reminded her of the paddy fields in the countryside.

Many villagers were busy in the salt fields at this time, and some of them were carrying two loads of sea water on their shoulders.

Some people held something like a rake in their hands and moved back and forth in the salt field to flatten it.

Some people put the salt from the salt fields into buckets and carried them away.

"Auntie Sun, you are busy!"
