The next morning.

Shibei Hutong, Zhao Duke’s Mansion.

On Keiryudo.

The old Duke Jiang Duo was wrapped in a big bear's skin mattress, revealing a small head outside. At first glance, it looked like a potato.

But no one from the state dared to underestimate this old man...

Jiang Duo raised his hairless brow, curled his shriveled lips, and looked at Changsun Jiang Tai and said: The emperor said that the three camps of Shenji should be handed over to those who are absolutely loyal and reliable.Because the little bastard of the Jia family almost blew the firearm into the sky... The bastard of the Forgetful Bastard knew about the military affairs of the ball, and he knew that he was buzzing in front of the emperor.However, the firearm battalion is indeed an important place.The emperor said that not many people who can trust him are the most trustworthy, and the Jiang family ranks first.So, I want to hand over Zhulong Camp to the children of the Jiang family and call out your name.how do you say?Hey, just listen carefully and say it carefully. Don’t raise your face. Each ball-shaped face is so long, I’m dizzy when I look at it!

Jiang Tai: ...

He pondered for a moment and said: Ancestor, I don’t really understand the firearm camp, and my grandson still wants to go back to the navy...

Before he finished speaking, his father Jiang Bao scolded him: Damn beast!Do you like to give you a face?Don’t urinate, do you deserve it?Dog fuck...

Before he finished scolding, he saw Jiang Duo's little head suddenly stretched out, and spat hard in the direction of Jiang Bao, cursing: The vulgar seeds that can be fucked by a dog!I haven't finished speaking, are you fucking your mother in the mouth?I think Brother Tai is ten times better than you. Everyone in the Jiang family thinks it is the king of heaven. I can’t do anything he can’t do. The stubborn guys who are stubborn are still faced to scold others?Why don’t you pee and see your virtues!

Seeing that Jiang Duo suddenly became short of breath, Jiang Bao hurriedly knelt down and said: It is easy for a father to beat him or scold him. Can you ask someone to beat him or scold him? You are always angry and your son will become a very unfilial person?

Although he had prayed countless times in his heart that the immortals died soon, he was not stupid after all. Knowing that the reason why Emperor Long'an met this respect to the Jiang family was because of Jiang Duo's supreme prestige in the army. The Tian family needed this prestige?

Adjust the military structure and gather military power.

The Jiang family should take advantage of this opportunity to get more benefits?After you get the benefits, it is not too late to die again.

Something went wrong now?Then the Jiang family is going to have a big problem...

Jiang Duo may understand this thought, or he may not care, he snorted?

He said: Brother Tai has indeed made progress? Understand your position, know what you can and cannot do. But, the more so? I feel more at ease to let you go. Be a battalion general and find out the tactics of the firearm battalion. I vaguely heard that Western firearms are different from before. What is the firearm in the firearm camp? How can I open a fire? Can archery shoot five or six rounds? It's hard. On rainy and snowy days, when windy days, they all turn into scrap iron? Not as good as a fire stick. But now there is a new firearm? Not afraid of rain, snow and strong winds...

Jiang Bao couldn't help but say: Master?My son has also heard of the self-propelled firearm, but the cost is extremely high. A firearm is almost worth hundreds of taels of silver, which is extremely labor-intensive.With the addition of the medicine, how can it be assembled in large quantities?

Jiang Duo wanted to scold him, but he was old at the end, so he just huh... and continued to say to Jiang Tai: After you go, take charge of the troops and watch and learn.If the firearm camp is really as magical as the Jia family’s Forget-Baoduzi said, your position in the future will be crucial. Have you written it down?

Jiang Tai nodded, and suddenly saw Jiang Lin standing beside him, his face was a little gloomy, hesitated for a moment, and said: Ancestor, why don’t you... let Brother Lin go?

Jiang Duo cursed: Just after praising you, you are confused!Is this the emperor’s golden words and words to choose you as a general, and you also gave it to him?Xiaolinzi, your elder brother is afraid that you will be jealous and hateful. The disaster will cause Xiao Jiang. What do you say about the dirty seeds?

Jiang Lin knelt down with a wry smile: My ancestor, I feel a little uncomfortable, but that's my elder brother, where is it?

When Jiang Duo heard this, he rarely smiled and said: I know that my seed is not that stupid! OK, get up. By the way, I heard from Brother Lin’s daughter-in-law that the Lin family has something called heating, which is very warm. It seems that I am not using brazier, but using hot water and hot air... I am very impressed. The Jia family's small ball is not serious, and they are all tiny and tiny. However, it is also a kind of energy that can be used to make a fortune. Tsk, it would be great if I had planted it. Go and ask if you can prepare a set of me too. Although the red charcoal given in the palace is good, I still feel it is a bit dry.

When Jiang Lin heard this, his face became entangled, but he didn't dare to say anything...

……

Ningguo Mansion, in five rows on the west side of the horse shed.

Li Xuan looked at the warm house and rows of vegetables, his eyes straightened...

I even ignored the smell of livestock feces that almost made him nauseated when I first came in...

Good football!How much money did Taiguan Garden spend in the Interior Ministry? The vegetables made were just wilted. His mother-in-law Wangba used silver frost and charcoal to cook the kang, but he couldn't cook good dishes.All day long, either leeks or soybean sprouts, eating a cucumber is like sleeping with his daughter!

As he said that, Li Xuan picked a green cucumber from a cucumber rack, wiped it with a handkerchief, took a bite, and his mouth was full of fragrance!

Send it!

Jia Qiang, you have too many ways to make money, but you have to come together. Isn’t there still a mountain of gold in the West?Why did you make another green mountain of gold?

I think this transaction is more prominent and more expensive than rushing coal!

Jia Qiang shook his head and said: Who can afford this ordinary people?Even noble people... most of the houses have cellars and are stored.Except for a few that are really expensive, not many can afford this one.

The cellar is a good thing, even ordinary people can store cabbage or something. Of course, they eat more pickled vegetables.

In winter, try to warm a plate of garlic sprouts on the head of the fired kang and produce a pot of bean sprouts, even if you try it out for the New Year.

However, in the family of high-ranking officials, there is a cellar dedicated to keeping fresh, called Caidongzi.

A few extremely noble families even grow vegetables on the kang.

And the cost of doing so is extremely high.

In contrast, Jia Qiang's greenhouse looks expensive, but it is not.

The greenhouse uses glass as windows and the heating room uses fertile soil to grow vegetables. It is actually not much different from the greenhouse in the previous life, so the effect is of course good.

Although glass is a valuable thing at present, the windows of Ning Rong's two palaces have long been sealed with glass.

If you don't pursue strict transparency and clarity like in your previous life, it's not difficult to get some glass.

The biggest secret of these five greenhouses is actually not glass and heating, but the insulation layer built outside the greenhouse.

Using slag as the medium, supplemented with cotton and linen as the core, a layer of insulation layer is built against the wall, which can make the temperature of the greenhouse evenly rise to a high enough level and be maintained.

Otherwise, simply relying on burning coal to drive such a large space will be too expensive, and it will be too extravagant.

Secondly, the burning is too fierce and the heat is uneven, which can easily cause drying and charring near the stove, and insufficient heat away from it.

And with this insulation layer, even the most primitive insulation layer plays an immeasurable role.

Coupled with the fermented livestock manure, this green vegetable has become a green gold mountain in Li Xuan's eyes.

What I asked the prince to see is not this, the stove and radiator.The coal balls burned in the stove are those piles.This stubborn intention can burn one piece for half an hour, and two pieces at a time can burn one and a half hours.The room is small and dense and not airtight, which can keep it from being cold all night.

The coal squares on the market are far worse than this one. One dollar costs three cents, and ours only costs two cents per dollar. Four cents per night are not cold, and six cents per day are hot.

It’s less than 200 yuan a month, so saving a little, more than 100 yuan is enough.

This price is very low, and it can be used by ordinary people.

With small profits and fast sales, the Ministry of Internal Affairs will have a stable source of wealth that will never be exhausted and can benefit the people.

After all, there will always be winter, and at least a hundred people will die of freezing in the capital every winter.

I don’t know how many people died of cold infection and wind and cold.

Therefore, selling coal so cheaply is also the kindness of the Tian family to the people.

And not only can coal balls make money, but also stoves. An ordinary coal briquette stove is simple and nothing.

The most profitable thing is this kind of heating.

This requires a skilled blacksmith to spend time doing it, polishing it little by little by little by little, and some devices require unusual tools. It is said in advance that only Delin can do these devices...

The prince said, would those great players like this kind of good thing not like?

When talking about serious matters, Li Xuan was still very serious. He nodded and said: Jia Qiang, it seems that I have taught you very well.The one who is close to Zhu is red, you have put your heart into the work of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Jia Qiang nodded seriously and said: If you are too close to the pig, you will inevitably have to spend more time.

Li Xuan laughed and scolded: "You are a good player, and you scold me again, please be careful."

While talking and laughing, he squatted down, picked up the tongs beside him and picked up a coal ball, looked at it, and asked: Jia Qiang, why are there eighteen holes on it?

Jia Qiang said: This is a big one, with eighteen holes, and a small one used by ordinary people, with only twelve holes.These holes are for ventilation so that the coal balls can burn more thoroughly.

Li Xuan nodded and said: Good thing!It's indeed a good thing.I guess, most of the people in the house where there are elderly people at home like this.

Jia Qiang smiled and said: It is a serious installation in the bedroom, and the stove is not inside, but it is built on the outside.Not only the elderly, most of the big families will like it.This heating effect is much stronger than that of smoked cages and braziers, the key is that it is cheaper.How much does coal balls cost? Where is charcoal?

Li Xuan twitched his lips and said: Xixinsi of the Ministry of Internal Affairs cut down hardwoods in the mountains of Yizhou every year and burned them into charcoal, then transported them to the red basket factory, saw them according to the size, and woven small round thorn baskets, and brush them with red clay to fill them.Each piece is about a foot long and has a garden diameter of two or three inches. It is fragrant and warm when burned. One pound can be burned for half an hour, gray and white without exploding, and there is no smoke.However, it costs thirty cents per pound!

Fifteen times that of coal briquettes.

However, Xixinsi had a more resounding name in his previous life: the inner factory...

Tsk!

Li Xuan sighed and said: Jia Qiang, I know you can do it. Everyone says you are a Jin Chi, but I still underestimate you.You're so good at putting on your life...

Jia Qiangqi said: The Prince is unhappy that the Office of the Internal Affairs has added such a big investment?

Li Xuan smiled bitterly and said: It’s not that I don’t like it, but do you know how many people are they supporting?

Jia Qiang sneered: Raise a bird's feather! The prince knows why the people hate the extravagant life of powerful families when they mention it? That is because they have sent the people to drive them away like cattle and horses, serving them and enjoying them, but they have no favors to the people. This has been the case since ancient times, otherwise how could "The Charcoal Selling Man" come from? But the coal mines of the Ministry of Internal Affairs cannot do this, and the hard work of craftsmen and civil servants must be rewarded. This is not only the prince and my moral conscience, but also the face of the Tian family.

Li Xuan frowned and said: I am not talking about this, I am talking about how many giants have made a living and how many powerful people have made this family and how many powerful people have!Jia Qiang, we are both funny and powerful. Others will give in to us and will apologize for us, and at most we will curse in our hearts.But if someone cuts off his wealth, he still has such a big wealth. Do you believe they dare to kill someone?The group of Forget Ba Hei has already ambushed a commander of the Embroidered Guard, and it was Wei Yongming who escaped.You may not have the great luck as much as him... Even the master may not be able to live in peace.How about the Supreme Emperor...

Before he finished speaking, Li Xuan threw the fire tongs to the ground.

Jia Qiang patted his shoulder and smiled and said: Prince, if anyone wants to murder, his first target must be me. Are you sure about this?

Li Xuan nodded, looked at him sideways and said: You can't do it either.Although I love to make some money, I want you to help me, but I didn’t let you fill it out with my life?

Jia Qiang was moved and laughed at her face: What are the prince thinking? In order to make some money, I still need to exchange my life for it? As he said that, he looked back and Li Yong, the housekeeper who was following behind, hurriedly stepped forward and asked: What does the marquis want?

Jia Qiang said: Get a few potatoes and get two more little wù ù.

Li Yong hurriedly prepared, but soon returned. After Jia Qiang divided Li Xuan a little boy, he sat down himself, opened the small page at the bottom of the stove, and put the potatoes into the coal ash one by one...

The stubborn intention of potato has been introduced to you for many years, but it has not been promoted on a large scale, so is corn.

In a relatively extremely conservative society, the spread of any new things will basically not be popularized without official promotion.

After all, tax collectors don't charge these...

Jia Qiang has made the Jia family's name more farms in the past two years and kept them more. When the new policy is launched, Lin Ruhai will promote the world to help the suffering of the common people.

Bake the potatoes into the stove, he closed the door page and chuckled softly: Although I am not willing to do this job, since I have taken it, I cannot hold back and embarrass my husband, let alone, there is also the love between the emperor and the empress, right?

The incident in Yangcun in Wuqing shows that there are indeed big gangsters lurking in the secret in Beijing, and they can even mobilize the army, which is very terrible!

Although, the advice given to me is to respond to changes in the same way and wait for the opportunity...

But I think it's too passive to wait for this matter. The prince only knows that if we move their Red Luo charcoal, they will be murderous, but he doesn't know what kind of interests the emperor and his wife will implement the new policy. Just Hongluo Tan is not a drop in the bucket before this profit!

I am old too, and I can't always let the emperor and the empress indulge in it, let my husband protect him. Therefore, if I can start to start a snail, lead the snake out of the hole, and then draw the sword to kill the snake, maybe I can share the responsibility for the emperor and the husband and do some good things.

Alas, I was a little annoyed when I said that. At the beginning, I really didn't want to enter the officialdom, so I was tired of getting involved in such a big deal of calculating and scheming.

I thought I was just an orphan without fathers and mothers, and I just wanted to spend my life quietly.Just take the exam for a Juren’s fame and fortune and not be bullied.

Who would have thought that luck would come to this point now... Although I don’t like it, I have to do it.

When Li Xuan heard this, he turned his head and looked at Jia Qiang, who was so sad that Versailles's superb skill, and advised: Jia Qiang, don't be too sad, many people want to become officials and get promoted.Besides, just by your ability, you can hardly be simple anywhere, and it is not as good as you are now.Although I am a little tired and confused, isn’t this teaching you?

Jia Qiang: ...

Seeing Jia Qiang's speechless look, Li Xuan laughed for a while, then picked up the tongs and picked up a coal ball and said: Forget it, since you have this intention, I am not a timid, so I will have a big fight with you.But, what is stopping us may not be the guys in Yang Village, Wuqing?

Jia Qiang laughed and said, "Don't worry, no matter who jumps out, slap him down and slaps him to death, no one is wronged."What's more, why don't they wait for the coal balls to jump out?After the handover of the embroidered ward was completed, we began to clean up the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the Seventh Division and the Third Hospital checked the accounts one by one...

You are also thinking about nothing!

Li Xuan laughed and scolded: Don’t you know that water often flows in the palace and fires? Many times it was caused by the carbon fire that had not yet been extinguished. It’s a coincidence that every time you go out and get a fire, you will probably burn your account book again. No one paid attention to it afterwards, so there was no problem with the current account book.

After hearing this, Jia Qiang was speechless for a while and asked: "Your Majesty doesn't care?"

Li Xuan shook his head and said: A few years ago, when the Supreme Emperor was there, the Supreme Emperor arranged for someone to take charge of the Interior Affairs Office.It’s not that the Supreme Emperor didn’t know the depth of the Interior Ministry, but he even told his father that the Interior Ministry was the warehouse of the Tian family, just like the “money among officials” mentioned in other high-ranking families.The royal family is all relatives. How can we be a person who is working hard to do things with one's heart?As long as it is not too much, don’t blame me. The water will be clear and there will be no fish.Dear clans and set a good example in the world.

Jia Qiang chuckled and said: Even so, there is a way.After the embroidered ward was handed over, he began to take ruthless measures to clean up the Ministry of Internal Affairs.This time, maybe it is impossible to directly attack the mastermind behind the Wuqing incident, but it will definitely make them hiding in the dark and painful.It would be better to jump out of one or two and I will beat them to death!!

Seeing him like this, Li Xuan laughed and scolded: Look, if you can do it, you will be confident and you will definitely beat others?

Jia Qiang smiled and said: It is impossible to mobilize the army privately on this land of Capital City, and the Jiang family will not allow it.Therefore, we have the embroidered garment guards and the military commander in our hands. As long as the guilty one dares to show their heads, we can get whatever we want!

As he said that, he used tongs tongs to pick up a few roasted potatoes with strong fragrance from the bottom of the stove, a total of six, three for each person.

Come on, Prince, eat quickly, I'll invite you to the host today!

Li Xuan looked at Jia Qiang in shock and cursed: You have almost finished the money in the world. Do you want me to eat the host? Just eat this?

Jia Qiang laughed and said: Just be sure to have a son. What is the point of eating delicacies in the mountains and seas? I really want to eat, so I will go to the prince’s mansion to eat another day.

Li Xuan nodded repeatedly when he heard this, looking at Jia Qiang as if he had reunited. He threw the burnt potatoes on the ground. After removing the scorched skin, he bit it hard, but the burnt tears came down. He turned around and shouted at Lu Feng: Take a big basket and pick some vegetables for me!By the way, pick more cucumbers and I will give them to the princess tonight!

Jia Qiang smiled and ignored it. As long as he picked up the Ministry of Internal Affairs tomorrow and caused a big wave, he could concentrate the energy of all forces on him and Li Xuan.

The bigger the quarrel, the more stable the boats Daiyu and the others went south...

……
