Chapter 111 Zhuge Liang: Give me 5 tons of instant noodles?
【To make sea salt. 】

[First you need to import raw materials. The most basic raw material for making sea salt is seawater. ]

[You need to dig a salt pond or salt pan in advance and introduce seawater into it. ]

【At this point, the seawater needs to be evaporated. 】

[Generally speaking, places suitable for producing sea salt have sufficient sunshine. Under the influence of sunlight and sea breeze, sea water will evaporate quickly.]

[The salt in the seawater will gradually concentrate, forming very salty saturated brine. ]

[As the salt water evaporates further, the salt concentration will gradually increase. When it reaches a certain level, the salt will be deposited in the form of crystals at the bottom of the salt pan.]

【Finally, this seawater field was turned into a salt field, and salt can be collected. 】

【Theoretically speaking, the coarse salt at this time can be considered as our edible salt. 】

[However, the taste of this kind of coarse salt obtained by drying is too bad, and the grains are too large, so it is not suitable for direct consumption. ]

[You need to add water to the coarse salt, and then further dissolve it and dry it. ]

[Obtain salt crystals again. After this step, the salt obtained will be relatively finer. ]

[Although it cannot be compared with modern table salt, it is still quite good. ]

[It can basically meet your needs for survival and sales. ]

[If you can make salt of good quality and sell it to the market at a relatively favorable price, you will quickly accumulate considerable wealth.]

【But it is also equivalent to competing with the imperial court for profit. 】

[At this time, I suggest that you, as an entrepreneur, don’t be stingy! ]

[Quickly convert wealth into military strength, and take action when it is time to do so, and try to recruit heroes from the martial arts world as the basis of your own strength. ]

[As a fatal salt master, you are doing something that can lead to your death. 】

[In ancient times, if you sold private salt without any real ability, you would be defeated in a matter of minutes! ]

[So I suggested you from the beginning that you must have a certain level of strength, preferably become a local lord, before you start making salt.]

[Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll have to wait until next time to travel through time. ]

[Okay, today our first issue of the essential skills for time travel ends here. See you next time! ]

……

The video ends.

The audience at the scene also expressed their opinions.

"Selling salt privately is a capital crime, isn't this cheating people?"

"A little-known fact: if you go back to ancient times, you can survive for about five days without eating or drinking."

"If you smuggle salt, you'll be lucky enough to survive until the next day."

"Heat the saturated salt water to dissolve more salt, then cool the heated salt water, and filter out the previously dissolved salt again, and you can get clean salt, which is better than what the UP host said. "

《This is too troublesome. I'd better ask the system for help. System! Come!》

This sky screen video ends.

Some poor ancients and desperate people were ready to make a move, but few of them actually took action at the moment.

After all, everyone knows that this is a beheading act.

Three Kingdoms.

Zhuge Liang looked at the method of making sea salt given on the skylight and wrote it down carefully.

"Although our Han Dynasty currently only owns one state, we mainly rely on well salt to meet the people's demand for salt."

"But if we are lucky enough to recover the entire Han Dynasty, we will definitely promote sea salt on a large scale."

"There is absolutely no harm in mastering this knowledge first."

……

Just wrote down the knowledge about sea salt for record.

New content appeared on the sky curtain.

As a result, when Zhuge Liang saw the title, he couldn't help scratching his head.

"Why is this a video about me?"

[If Zhuge Liang was given 50,000 tons of instant noodles, would he be able to succeed in his Northern Expedition? ]

Zhuge Liang looked at the problem with the sky curtain and thought:

I was indeed on the Northern Expedition.

But what does it mean to offer instant noodles?
50,000 tons of instant noodles? Is it a food?

Zhuge Liang probably guessed that instant noodles should be a kind of food in later generations.

If he was given 50,000 tons, then each person in the 50,000 troops he led in the Northern Expedition would be able to obtain one ton of food.

A lot indeed.

But most of the time during the Northern Expedition, there was a lack of food.

But it is difficult to transport.

Unless 50,000 tons of instant noodles appeared out of nowhere in the camp after leaving Qishan.

In that case, he would no longer have to worry about food during the Northern Expedition.

Thinking of this, Zhuge Liang couldn't help but smile at himself.

In a tone that was half envious and half helpless, he said: "It's still unclear what instant noodles are."

"But if instant noodles are a common food, if we can give Liang 50,000 tons of instant noodles..."

"Then our army will never be forced to retreat due to food shortages again."

“It’s just not clear what kind of food instant noodles are.”

“Is it easy to transport? Is it easy to store?”

Zhuge Liang knew that it was unlikely that he would obtain 50,000 tons of instant noodles for no reason.

But I couldn't help but fantasize.

This funny and classic question also aroused widespread discussion among the audience.

"Wow? Fifty thousand tons of instant noodles, you have to kill at least five cows to get enough beef."

"Do you know what 50,000 tons of instant noodles means? That's not 50,000 tons of grain!"

《It is a food that is very convenient to store and transport! 》

"If Zhuge Liang led an army of 100,000 to fight, and each person ate three to five packs of instant noodles a day, it would be enough for Zhuge Liang to eat for several years!"

"I remember when I was a kid, eating instant noodles was something to be happy about. Of course, now I can eat it occasionally, but if I eat it every day, I will vomit. "

"Instant noodles are light, high in oil, salt and calories. For soldiers on the march, they are simply the best food!"

"Don't say it's not nutritious or you'll get tired of it. That was in ancient times!"

"Instant noodles are not only a kind of food, but also a strategic material."

"A bucket of instant noodles weighs 100 grams. Even if a person eats 5 buckets a day, it only weighs one kilogram!"

"Everyone brings 20 kilograms of instant noodles. The boxes are removed for easy transportation. They can be used for a -day field march!"

"If elite troops can harass the enemy's rear without supplies for 20 days, this can change the outcome of the war."

"When Wei Yan proposed the Ziwu Valley plan, Zhuge Liang disagreed. "

"On the one hand, we are worried about the loss of the 5,000 elite soldiers and the great general Wei Yan."

"On the other hand, I know that even if Wei Yan succeeds at the beginning, his subsequent supplies will not be able to keep up."

"But if Zhuge Liang had instant noodles... then he could just give each of the elite troops led by Wei Yan a big bag of instant noodles, and Wei Yan could just wander around the rear of the Wei State for a month."

"The key is that instant noodles can be soaked in cold water or even eaten dry, and they can still provide enough energy without the need to light a fire or a stove."

"I asked before, can the Northern Expedition be successful if 5,000 James are provided to Zhuge Liang?"

"At the time I said that 5,000 James wouldn't work, but providing 50,000 tons of instant noodles was not certain. I felt there was a good chance."

"Wait! You eat instant noodles every day?"

"Isn't instant noodles junk food? If you eat instant noodles every day, you will die from it!"

《Instant noodles are junk food? Haha!》

"It may be junk food for modern people, but it is a super food for ancient people."

"It's high in calories, but easy to transport and store."

《The key is that it tastes good! 》

"And don't think that people will vomit after eating instant noodles now."

"But in the ancient times when spices were scarce, the taste was unrivaled."

"The aroma of instant noodles cooked in a big pot alone is enough to make the enemy soldiers surrender with courtesy."
