There are fruits all over the mountains and fields, and in the year of the first harvest, everyone's wallet is bulging.
Now everyone despises Boss Gu as a profiteer...
It sounds really cool.
"Thank you for telling us that." Ye Qianning stood up and stretched.
"Girl, what are you talking about? Jiang is begging for water from the lady." Jiang Chenyi also stood up.
"When there were many people in our boat, we pushed it to the shore. He taught us a way to get fresh water."
"How to get fresh water?" Jiang Chenyi was surprised, how to get fresh water?
"Sister, how can we get fresh water if we are not on the shore?" Jiang Yue was very curious.
"Distillation method."
"What is distillation?"
"Just water vapor."
Jiang Chenyi frowned and didn't understand.
Ye Qianning saw that they were confused, so he followed through, took out the pots and pans, walked out of the cabin, and built a simple shelf on the deck.
Take out the brazier and place it on the east side of the pot.
"Mr. Jiang, please bring some sea water."
Jiang Chenyi nodded, picked up the container, and used a rope to get a bucket of seawater.
Ye Qianning poured seawater into the pot and lit the fire. After a while, the seawater started to boil, and the steam started to rise on top of the utensils placed there.
The steam turns into water droplets and flows out bit by bit along the bamboo tube.
Tick tick tick, not long after, there was a layer of water in the bamboo container.
Ye Qianning poured the water into the cup, waited for it to condense and then handed it to Jiang Chenyi: "Drink and see."
Jiang Chenyi looked at the clear water, hesitated for a moment before picking up the cup, and took a few sips. There was no salty taste as expected, and his eyes were shocked and surprised: "Is that... is that... fresh water?"
Ye Qianning nodded.
"Try it." Jiang Yue took the cup and drank it in one gulp, her eyes widened in surprise: "It's really fresh water, sister, I'm so amazing."
"Girl." Jiang Chenyi was so excited that he didn't know how to describe it.
You can make fresh water, gods, and true gods with simple tools.
"That's called distilled water."
"Distilled water?"
"Wrong, boil the seawater until it boils, and the freshwater evaporates into water vapor. When the steam condenses, it becomes distilled water, which is also fresh water. When the seawater in the pot is burned out, what remains becomes sea salt."
Jiang Chenyi's eyes fell on the equipment. It turned out that it was so easy to get fresh water. With that method, people who were lost in the sea would not die due to lack of fresh water.
"Dear mother." Jiang Chenyi bowed deeply towards Ye Qianning.
"It's nothing, then it's just a simple principle."
"No, the girl is willing to tell them such a serious request. Jiang must keep it in mind. If the girl encounters anything after she is on shore, she can go to the Jiang family in Qingzhou for help." Jiang Chenyi said and took something from his arms.
He took out a jade token and handed it to her.
"No."
How can I ask someone so much for something?
"Sister, I will accept the gift." Jiang Yue snatched the jade token and forced it into Ye Qianning's legs: "Sister, can they help me save my life?"
Seeing that she couldn't refuse, Ye Qianning said, "Okay."
Jiang Yue chuckled and wanted to hold Ye Qianning's arm.
Ye Qianning could have avoided it.
Jiang Yue hugged Kong Yue: "Sister?"
"He doesn't like to touch others." Ye Qianning said.
Jiang Yue didn't feel embarrassed at all and scratched her head: "Haha, maybe he was too abrupt."
——
Two months later, with the method of distilling water, the people in the big boat solved the problem of fresh water. The Jiang family admired the little girl in the small boat.
Although Huo Tu was dissatisfied with Ye Qianning, the water and food issues were resolved, but he did not trouble her again.
Huo Feng was wrong because the distillation method was very novel and he had studied it many times. Why didn't they think of such a simple thing?
In those two months, Jiang Yue was on Ye Qianning's boat every month. Her elder sister was younger and her younger sister was shorter. Huo Liran looked at her and snorted again and again. Wasn't she just an ugly fish girl, how could she be so flattering?
Ye Qianning stayed for two months. In addition to Jiang Yue, Jiang Chenyi would also go to the ship and walk around. From his mouth, he learned a lot about the four countries.
The commercial objectives of Beili are also very large. Even if private smuggling was prohibited in the past few years, commerce can be carried out through imperial merchants.
Private merchants in Beili who were unwilling to engage in business gradually began to make a living elsewhere.
Beili's business is making money, and the national treasury is getting richer and richer, but the people seem to be not as wealthy as before. They basically rely on farming and the weather to survive. If there is a natural disaster.
The people were miserable.
Ye Qianning felt that Beili was really good at what he did. He monopolized the country's business and took advantage of the business. He was afraid that his eyes had already been set on Nanyuan and Gu Shuo.
Beili went to Gu Shuo many times to beg him to abide by the rules of Beili Royal Merchant and accept Nanyuan Aquatic Products and Xianhai Tower as Beili industries, but Qinshuo refused. Gu Shuo originally said that Nanyuan's cooperative business and Xianhai Tower
Not from the Gu family, Gu Shuo was very bossy around him.
The boss is not from Beili, he is a big businessman, but Beili has nothing to do with it.
No one knows who the boss Gu Shuo is talking about is.
The more greedy the Emperor of Beili is, the better it is in her eyes now. Is there any way she can defeat the imperial merchants of Beili?
Thinking about it, she couldn't wait.
"Miss Ye won't go with them anymore?" Jiang Chenyi was surprised.
"He has something to do, so he won't go with you."
Jiang Yue immediately frowned upon hearing this.
"What's the matter? Can you ask them for help?"
"No, give that to me." Ye Qianning took out a homemade compass from the space.
"That's not true?"
"The compass will keep us on the ship without losing our way."
"Compass? Does the direction always point south?"
"Wrong, wherever the port turns, its position will always point south, and the ship will travel in the north direction. If the compass goes in the opposite direction, the route will not go wrong. If it is fast, it will take more than 20 days to reach the coast." Ye Qian.
Ning thinks the Jiang family siblings are very good.
"You have diarrhea, mother." Jiang Chenyi did not refuse.
In February, he was really impressed by the little girl. She knew a lot, and the boat was novel. There was no need for anyone to steer the ship, and it had no mechanism at all. He had never seen it before.
"Sister, am I really not going to leave with them?" Jiang Yue pouted and looked at her with longing eyes.
"kindness."
"Sister, when I get to the shore, I will definitely come to Qingzhou to find him."
"He will go when he has time."
"I must ask for it."
Ye Qianning smiled and nodded.
Jiang Chenyi took Jiang Yue back to the ship.
Ye Qianning's boat slowly shifted its direction.
"Jiang Chenyi, why did her ship leave?" Huo Liran was lying on the deck, watching the ship go away.
"Miss Ye is very busy." Jiang Chenyi said perfunctorily.
"If anything happens, it's obviously a ghost. How can I let her go?"
Jiang Chenyi frowned: "Miss Ye is a free woman. She can go when she wants. Miss Huo should pay attention to her words."
"No, please, Sister Ye, can I have fresh water to drink? Shut up and your breath smells so bad." Jiang Yue admired Huo Liran the most.
"We... what kind of ecstasy soup did she pour into our Jiang family brothers and sisters? If we let her go, if she points them in the wrong direction, even if there is fresh water, it will be useless."
Jiang Chenyi's face darkened slightly.
"Second brother, let's go and ignore her." Jiang Yue dragged Jiang Chenyi into the cabin.
