Looking at the girl's stubborn look, Li Liuqing sighed, "Miss, have you really thought about it clearly? Are you really not going to keep any dowry book? At least, keeping some dowry book will also protect you, miss."
Qin Di understood the look of deep affection, but she still shook her head, "No, I won't keep it. I'm going to try it. I believe in myself and you."
Staring at Li Liuqing seriously, pressure instantly fell on Li Liuqing.
Sighing again, "Okay, I really lost to you, so now, the problem we have to solve is...?"
Qin Di was finally told to relent, and Li Liuqing's appearance also made Qin Di breathe a sigh of relief.
Qin Di, who was smiling brightly, nodded immediately, "Our problem now is to find a way to get a lot of saltpeter.
Saltpeter can generally be obtained from salt lakes, saline-alkali soils, cave sediments, and toilet walls.
It's easy to get a small amount, there are some in the toilet walls, but you can't tear down all the toilet walls, and even if they are all removed, it probably won't be enough."
Pursing her lower lip, Qin Di glanced at Li Liuqing slyly.
Li Liuqing was obviously shocked by the source of the saltpeter, and was so shocked that it was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
"Ahem" he said, "They can be found in the toilet wall... That seems to be pretty easy to do, and the cost is indeed not high..."
That is, I guess I won’t dare to use it.
Of course, she didn't say this out loud, she just thought about it in her mind.
However, in an instant, the woman seemed to think of something again, and her mind was also thinking carefully about what Qin Di just said about salt lakes, saline-alkali soil and cave sediments.
She remembered Qin Di once said that the small piece of land in their house had saline and alkaline soil, so it was difficult to grow anything...
"Wait a minute, miss, if you say so, I am reminded of a place, right in the west field, where there is a large area that cannot be cultivated.
It is said that there was a river flowing there before, and then slowly and for unknown reasons the river changed its course and that land appeared.
At first, everyone was quite happy, thinking that there was an extra large piece of land for farming.
As a result, the first year the seeds were planted in that field, not a single blade of grass grew. The second and third years it was the same, and now it lies there abandoned.
Then..." Li Liuqing was still hesitating whether it was right or not, but Qin Di's eyes lit up.
"Sir! Let's go there and take a look tomorrow morning! I think there should be one!" He immediately grabbed Li Liuqing's hand.
Sure enough, she made the right choice to call Li Liuqinglai. She is familiar with everything here and will always pay attention to the trends around her.
The diversion of rivers is a very important reason for the formation of soil salinization! And the soil salinization caused by such conditions can even be said to be difficult to improve, so there must be some saltpeter over there!
Although there were many thoughts in her mind, she still had an optimistic attitude.
But in short, everything will be over tomorrow, and she will know it by taking a look at it in person!

The wheels of the carriage drove through a green grassland and came to a land of loess. The dust on the ground directly raised up the yellow dust all over the sky with the rotation of the wheels.
With a "cough cough" sound, the girl was persuaded by Huang Chen to retreat as soon as she opened the curtain. She immediately put down the curtain mat in her hand and did not dare to raise the curtain again.
Following the sound of "hu", the coachman's voice came from outside, "Miss, we have reached the outer perimeter, do you want to go further inside?"
The carriage was already shaking due to the bumpy ground. If the driver hadn't been so stable, the horse and all the people in the carriage would probably have been knocked over by the jolt.
"Yes" he said, "Stop here, there is no need to go in." Qin Di finished her words. She originally came over to take a look. It would be nice if she could see saltpeter outside the carriage.
If not, then you can only go deeper and take a look.
Holding on to the armrest of the carriage next to her and getting up slowly, Qin Di carefully lifted the outside curtain. Just as she was about to walk to the front, Qin Cheng took the first step to help her pull the curtain and got out of the carriage to meet her.
Turning his head to look at Li Liuqing, Qin Di just got out of the carriage, and Li Liuqing got off the carriage right after him.
I fanned the dust that was still flying in this area with my hand. It was really too desolate. The words "no birds poop" and "no grass grows" are really suitable to describe it.
After walking a few more steps, I reached a place where the flying dust was slightly less. I looked from a distance and saw that it was really big here. I lowered my head and looked at my now dirty shoes.
Fortunately, she was wearing a short skirt when she came out today, which made it much easier to do anything.
He knelt down and picked up a stone on the ground.
After carefully observing and stroking, the girl stood up again, her eyes already looking at her feet and the ground nearby.
"What's wrong, Miss?" Li Liuqing came over, holding a stone in his hand, and asked Qin Di directly.
Looking at Li Liuqing, a smile appeared on the girl's expressionless face, "Yes! There is already a lot of exposure on the surface.
I believe there is probably more underground. Look at this piece of land, these stones cannot be kicked away with your feet. There is probably a big piece underneath, and there must be more than just this one underground."
He kicked a large piece of saltpeter at his feet that was only slightly exposed, and Qin Di showed it to Li Liuqing in a demonstration.
Li Liuqing looked at the stone in his hand. It was the same as the stone in Qin Di's hand. It was similar to most of the stones on the ground. They were almost all colorless, white or gray crystals, and even quite shiny.
"Miss, what should we do next?" Looking at the stone in his hand, Li Liuqing quickly turned his attention to Qin Di.
I saw a faint smile on Qin Di's face, and then her eyes slowly moved to Li Liuqing's face, and the two looked at each other.
"Buy this piece of land." The corner of her mouth curled up slightly. She, Qin Di, had expropriated this piece of land.
Is it difficult to sell land that has been deserted for so long? It is definitely impossible. The owner of this land has long thought about taking action, but just think about it, the land that cannot even be cultivated will be taken over by the wrongdoer?
So Qin Di asked Li Liuqing to buy the land. When the land seller heard that it was the Qin family who bought the land, he called him a good guy. The Qin family actually started to take advantage of him?
He happily sold it to Qin Di at a low price. Of course Qin Di was also happy with the success. Everyone was willing to give it to him and he got such a large piece of land.
With these saltpeter resources here, at least we won’t have to worry about it for a long, long time.
On the contrary, the factory cost a lot of money to build. The money spent to build the factory was even more than the money spent to buy the land.
This is also the first time Qin Di has bought such cheap land.
People thought that Qin Di had been taken advantage of, but they didn't know that to Qin Di, the value of this piece of land was much more than that.
