Chapter 690 The owner of Xianhai Tower 3
There are also fruits all over the mountains and fields. In the year of the first harvest, everyone’s wallets were bulging.
Nowadays, everyone dislikes Boss Gu and is a profiteer...
It sounds really cool to say.
“Thank you for telling me this.” Ye Qianning stood up and stretched.
"Girl, what are you talking about? Jiang wants to thank the girl for the water." Jiang Chenyi also stood up.
"There are many people on your boat, and the little water is not enough for you to reach the shore. I will teach you 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 without going ashore?” Jiang Yue was curious.
“Distillation method.”
“What is distillation?”
“It’s 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 simply built a shelf on the deck.
Take out the brazier and place it under the pot.
“Mr. Jiang, please bring some seawater.”
Jiang Chenyi nodded, picked up the container, and used a rope to get a bucket of sea water.
Ye Qianning poured seawater into the pot and lit a fire underneath. Soon the seawater was boiling, and steam rose up on the utensils placed above.
The steam turns into water droplets and flows down the bamboo tube little by little.
Tick tock, tick tock, not long after, there was a layer of water in the container under the bamboo tube.
Ye Qianning poured 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. He hesitated before picking up the cup and took a few sips. There was no salty taste as expected. His eyes were shocked and surprised: "Is this... is this... fresh water?"
Ye Qianning nodded.
"Let me try it." Jiang Yue took the cup and drank it in one gulp, her eyes widened in surprise: "It's really fresh water, sister, you are so amazing."
“Girl.” Jiang Chenyi was so excited that he didn’t know how to describe it.
Simple tools can make fresh water, God, true God.
“This is called distilled water.”
“Distilled water?”
“Yes, boil the seawater until it boils, the freshwater evaporates into water vapor, and the steam condenses to become distilled water, that is, freshwater. When the seawater in the pot is burned out, what is left is sea salt.”
Jiang Chenyi’s eyes fell on the equipment. It turned out that it was so easy to obtain fresh water. With this method, people who were lost at sea would not die due to lack of fresh water.
"Thank you, girl." Jiang Chenyi bowed deeply towards Ye Qianning.
“It’s nothing, it’s just a simple principle.”
"No, the girl is willing to tell us such an important matter. Jiang must keep it in mind. If the girl encounters anything after landing, she can go to the Jiang family in Qingzhou for help." Jiang Chenyi said and took out a coin from his arms. The jade token was handed to her.
"No."
How can a little common sense cost someone something so important?
"Sister, just accept it." Jiang Yue snatched the jade token and forced it into Ye Qianning's hands: "Sister, you are a life-saving grace to us."
Ye Qianning couldn't refuse, "Okay."
Jiang Yue chuckled and wanted to hold Ye Qianning's arm.
Ye Qianning instinctively avoided.
Jiang Yue hugged him empty-handed: "Sister?"
“I don’t like to touch others.” Ye Qianning said.
Jiang Yue didn't feel embarrassed at all and scratched her head: "Haha, it was me who was abrupt."

Two days later, with the method of distilling water, the people on the big boat solved the problem of fresh water. The Jiang family all admired the little **** the small boat. Although Huotu was dissatisfied with Ye Qianning, the water and food issues were settled, but he didn't bother her again.
Huo Feng was very new to the distillation method and had studied it many times. Why didn't they think of such a simple thing?
Jiang Yue has been on Ye Qianning's boat every day. The older sister is taller than the younger sister. Huo Liran looked at her and snorted again and again. Isn't she just an ugly fish girl? How can she be so pleasing to the eye?
Ye Qianning stayed for two days. In addition to Jiang Yue, Jiang Chenyi would also sit on the boat and learned a lot about the four countries from his mouth.
Beili's business is currently very large, but private trading was prohibited in the past few years, and business can only be conducted through imperial merchants.
Private merchants in Beili who were unwilling to engage in business gradually made other livelihoods.
Beili's business is making money, and the national treasury is getting richer and richer, but the people seem not as wealthy as before. They basically rely on farming and relying on the weather to survive. If there is a natural disaster.
The people are miserable.
Ye Qianning felt that Beili was really good at what he did. He monopolized the country's business and took advantage of it. He was afraid that his eyes had already been set on Nanyuan and Gu Shuo.
Beili sought out Gu Shuo many times to ask him to abide by the regulations of Beili Royal Merchant and accept Nanyuan Aquatic Products and Xianhai Building as Beili's industries, but Gu Shuo refused. Gu Shuo said that Nanyuan's cooperative business and Xianhai Building were not From the Gu family, there is a boss above Gu Shuo.
The boss is not from Beili and is a big businessman, so Beili naturally has nothing to do with him.
No one knows who the boss Gu Shuo is talking about.
The more greedy the Emperor of Beili is, the better it is in her eyes now. She has many ways to defeat the imperial merchants of Beili.
Thinking about it, she was a little impatient.
“Miss Ye is not coming with us anymore?” Jiang Chenyi was surprised.
“I still have some things to do, so I won’t go with you.”
Jiang Yue frowned upon hearing this.
“What’s the matter? Do you need our help?”
“No, this is for you.” Ye Qianning took out a homemade compass from the space.
"This is?"
“The compass will keep you from losing your way on the ship.”
“Compass? Does the direction always point to the south?”
"Yes, no matter where it turns, its position always points to the south. The direction of the ship is north. As the compass moves 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 Qianning felt The Jiang brothers and sisters are pretty good.
“Thank you, girl.” Jiang Chenyi did not refuse.
In the past two days, he was really impressed by this little girl. She knew a lot. The ship was novel. There was no need for anyone to steer it. It was all a mechanical structure that he had never seen before.
“Sister, are you really not going to leave with us?” Jiang Yue pouted and looked at her with longing eyes.
"kindness."
“Sister, when you get ashore, you must come to Qingzhou to find me.”
“I will go when I have time.”
“Must come.”
Ye Qianning smiled and nodded.
Jiang Chenyi took Jiang Yue back to the ship.
Ye Qianning's ship slowly shifted its direction.
“Jiang Chenyi, why did her ship leave?” Huo Liran lay on the deck and watched the ship go away.
"Miss Ye, I still have something to do." Jiang Chenyi said perfunctorily.
"Whatever happened, it's obviously a ghost. How could you 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."
"That's right, if it weren't for Sister Ye, would you have fresh water to drink? Your tone of voice is so bad." Jiang Yue disliked Huo Liran the most.
"You... what kind of ecstasy soup did she pour into you Jiang family brothers and sisters? You let her go. If she points us in the wrong direction, even if she has 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.
