They just hope to get the salt ready as quickly as possible.

When everything was almost done, Xi Yao drew a picture and said to Lao Yu: "This is called a prison basin. It can be made of iron or bamboo. If it is made of iron, we don't want it. You can ask the villagers for help and take a look.

Wherever there is bamboo, let them bring it to us and pay them wages!”

Lao Yu took a deep look at Xi Yao and nodded in agreement.

The court could directly requisition villagers for its affairs.

It's good if you don't cause them any trouble. Let them do their work without paying them any wages.

Lao Yu himself is an ordinary citizen who has encountered too many injustices, so he found it incredible that Xi Yao cared for the villagers in all aspects.

Xi Yao's ability was beyond anyone else's. Looking at him, he felt that he was not simple.

But it is a bit contradictory that such a person understands the hardships of people's livelihood.

It was Xi Yao who kept an eye on the prison basin and taught the villagers how to do it.

After the sea salt comes out, it will definitely not be withdrawn here, and the prison basin will definitely still be needed.

The villagers who just thought they could make money didn't expect that they sent bamboo and learned a craft, and everyone was a little confused.

"The things here will not be removed in the future. The craftsmanship of the prison basin is in your hands. When it is confirmed in the future, maybe you should come here to work. If you work hard, it will get better and better in the future!" Xi Yao said.

They had a glimmer of hope, but they didn't tell those people what the prison was for.

The villagers who were forced to learn the craft looked at each other, feeling happy and a little nervous. This benefit came so suddenly, which made people feel frightened.

Xi Yao let them digest it themselves, and then made a new request - she wanted wheat straw ashes and reed grass ashes.

These are things from farmers and not found in fishing villages.

"My natal family should have one," said Aunt Li, who was helping.

"Auntie, please go back to your parents' house and confirm how much we want. Don't worry, we won't get it for nothing." Xi Yao thought for a moment and then said, "If not, we can get it ready for us. This is the deposit."

!" After saying that, he stuffed ten coins into the person's hand.

Aunt Li held the copper coins in her hands, nodded hurriedly, then said something to the woman next to her, and immediately rushed to her parents' house.

Whether you are farming or fishing, life is not easy.

No one wants to lose something if they can make some progress.

Aunt Li's natal family is not far from the fishing village, separated by a mountain. It happened to be this mountain that gave hope that the village could grow food and not be harmed by the sea breeze.

Because there is no shelter in the fishing village, every year during the rainy season, whatever you plant can be uprooted.

Therefore, the people in the fishing village are very poor. They don’t have enough to eat and don’t have enough clothes, but they don’t starve to death because there are fish.

It is also because of this that people in fishing villages can marry wives. Otherwise, they would not be able to marry at all.

Wheat straw is an important thing, but if it is not important, it is worthless.

Someone wanted to buy wheat straw ashes, and the offer was real copper coins. As long as they had it, no one was willing to refuse.

So when Aunt Li went back to her parents' house and told her story, everyone was suspicious. It wasn't until Aunt Li brought out the copper coins that people were convinced.

If there are wheat straws and ashes, they can be carried directly. If there are not, they can be straightened out. As long as you have money, nothing is impossible.

Because I didn't know what to do, I didn't dare to give more, so I gave him about ten baskets...

Xi Yao took a look and felt satisfied, so he told Aunt Li: "Let's do this for today. If I want it tomorrow, I'll tell you!"
