官盐

官 = 㠯 + 宀 : Mnemonic symbol: to symbolize the bureaucracy involved in every governmental system I'll use a folder.

官 = 㠯 + 宀 : Gitta Giraffe just graduated from anthill, and standing in front of it, still wearing her graduation cap, she's ready to assume her post as government official. She already has a folder under each arm and is wearing big safety glasses (be safe at work!).

盐 = 土 + 卜 + 皿 : Maud Younger (y) finished cooking a dish in the anthill's kitchen (an2) when she finds that she's out of salt (盐). Her last hope is to put some dirt (土) in a bowl (皿) and trying to change it into salt (盐) using a voodoo staff (卜).
