【摘要】：明代前中期,山西解盐的生产方式是直接入池捞采漫生盐,隆庆年间的大水致使各方不得不开始探索治畦浇晒的办法。由于部分解盐是在缺乏硝板的小池边进行浇晒,且当时的晒盐技术未能除去味苦的杂质,故不受市场欢迎,从而导致河东运司遭受割地减课的打击。在此背景下,盐运司开始让盐商参与晒盐的生产。明末清初的战乱导致负责捞盐的盐丁大量逃亡,盐运司推行"畦归商种"制,由盐商雇佣专业的技术工人来从事解盐生产,这为分段浇晒新技术的采用与推广提供了重要的制度保障。
[Abstract]:In the early and middle Ming Dynasty, the production mode of salt solution in Shanxi Province was to directly enter the pool to collect the overgrown salt. The flood in Longqing made all parties have to explore the method of controlling the treatment of the furrow and the sun. Because part of the desalination is to be watered by the small pool that lacks the nitrite plate, and the technology of sunning at that time failed to remove the taste and bitter impurities, it was not welcomed by the market, which resulted in the Hedong Transportation Department being hit by the cut off course. Against this background, the Salt Transport Division began to involve salt merchants in salt production. The war in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties led to the mass exodus of salt pickers. The Salt Transport Department carried out a system of "border and quotient farming," in which salt merchants employed skilled workers to engage in salt production. This provides an important system guarantee for the adoption and popularization of the new technology.
