Kapitel 875: Vol V Chapter 235

As a result of remedying the great drought that implicated the entire Dominant Continent, Sui Xiong once produced a great amount of salt. That was really a great amount, an amount which was enough to be piled into a mountain.

Of course, this salt was coarse salt. It was bitter and astringent. Perhaps the poor people would not mind its taste, but Sui Xiong personally detested it. From his point of view, this kind of salt was trash. Not only did it taste bad, but it also contained a lot of minerals that were harmful to the human body—no matter how lacking Sui Xiong was in scientific knowledge, he also knew that seawater was undrinkable. The key reason why it could not be consumed was not that it was dirty, but rather, it had a lot of harmful minerals in it.
