Fifteen days later, most people in Chang'an had fully embraced the emerging species.

The businessman who went to sell coal stoves became a hot figure in the blink of an eye.

They each ran their own mountain stalls and started a business with the support of Li Chengyang.

Every morning, a long line of people would be discharged in front of the stalls, all to grab coal.

The output of coal still can't go up, which makes Li Chengyang have a headache for a long time.

A lot of money was in front of him, but he could only watch it, and he couldn't do it.

Even if all the displaced people who can be found have been sent to work in the mines, they still can't stop the Chang'an people's pursuit of coal.

There are also a lot of displaced people, adding up to more than 10,000 people, but compared to the mine, it is tantamount to a drop in the bucket.

The quality of the tools can't go up, the skills of the personnel can't go up, and the output is always the same.

As soon as the draft goes down, the coal mine is fine, and the manuscript is broken!

A person who desperately knocks for half a day can knock out a man-sized amount of coal.

These are all problems faced by Li Chengyang, and they have to wait for him to solve them slowly.

asked Li Shimin for help, Li Shimin just waved his hand and asked him to stay cool.

Just wait for Li Chengyang to figure everything out, and Li Shimin will just pick up the ready-made fruits.

It's all stinky hooligans, Li Chengyang sighed, and began to toss at the huge crucible in front of him again.

The refining of steel had to begin, the tools of pig iron were too brittle, and the wrought iron was too soft.

Only steel is capable of mining coal mines.

Early in the morning, the four secret guards hurried out of the door with two carriages, ready to go to the mutual market to exchange Li Yi and them back.

A cart of roasted tea and a cart of refined salt were taken by them again.

There are too many things, Li Chengyang shouted angrily, and picked up the big iron rod and stirred it against the liquid in the crucible.

I have never understood that the ancients could make pig iron into mature iron, but they could not make steel from pig iron anyway.

Wrought iron is formed by the full combustion of pig iron.

It is to sinter the pig iron, and then continue to heat and stir, after a period of time,

The carbon content of pig iron decreases until it almost disappears, and wrought iron is obtained.

However, isn't the carbon content of steel between pig iron and wrought iron?

If you are lazy when you practice wrought iron, won't the steel come out?

Until now, Li Chengyang didn't know what was going on, but now he didn't need that method.

Half molten pig iron and half molten wrought iron, mix together and stir to finish.

The rest is steel, simple and easy.

Li Chengyang was practicing steel hard, and Li Shimin was waiting to pick up fruits to eat.

In the case of the Maison, it is a different scene entirely.

In the courtyard of a large mansion in Chang'an, six old men with white beards formed a circle.

The six of them were all richly dressed, and each of them was followed by a few young men under the age of twenty.

said that he was a little guy, but he didn't look like an ordinary person when he looked at the momentum, and the clothes on his body all showed his noble identity.

"Tell me, what should we do?" ，

An old man spoke first.

The rest of the people looked at each other, but they all bowed their heads and said nothing.

"What is there to say, if you want me to say, we will directly rob Li Shimin's mine, what does he dare to say?" ，

The person behind the old man couldn't help it, and was the first to jump out and answer the old man's question.

"Bastard, the books are all in the dog's belly, and I don't know how you learned,

You go, you will never get involved in the affairs of my Wang family in the future."

The old man frowned, his whole face was not angry, and he reprimanded the young man.

The young man pointed at himself in disbelief: "Me? I'm the eldest son of the long house, what right do you have to strip me of the Wang family,

You are not worthy, my father is the head of the family, I don't accept it."

The old man turned his head and glared at the young man: "Not convinced? If you don't accept it, your father doesn't dare to talk to me like this,

Go down quickly, with the old man's eyes dirty, I will go back to your house and say about your affairs."

Then he didn't care about the young man anymore, turned his head and hugged his fist at the people around him:

"The family is unfortunate, there is a stupidity, everyone laughs, laughs".

The person sitting opposite him waved his hand: "Lao Wang, look at the point, look at my surname Lu, I have long been concerned about family affairs,

You don't care what their juniors do, we are old, we should have our own way of living."

"Hmph, it's so easy to say, as soon as the notice from the Wang family arrives this time, you're not rushing over."

Of the six old men, the only one with a little dark hair spoke.

"I said your surname is Cui, you remember, the people here are a generation older than you,

And there are no rules."

"Okay, okay, don't quarrel, don't be ashamed of your age."

The old man surnamed Wang nodded and pointed to the coal stove surrounded by them:

"We're here to talk about this, what are we doing with so much?".

"I think your kid is right, just grab it directly, how much attention is there,

Li Shimin is a green onion, my old Cui has lived for so many years, no one has ever seen it,

As far as Li Shimin is concerned, he will not be able to do it for a long time, we can do what we want.

Xiao Cui, do you say that what I said is right?"

Another white-haired old man spoke.

The previous black-haired old man, that is, Xiao Cui, nodded: "Li Shimin's affairs really don't have to be too concerned."

"Nonsense", the crutch in Lao Wang's hand said hard:

"Rules, rules, how many times have you been told the rules, why can't you remember them?

If you rob him of Li Shimin's things, he will be able to send troops to destroy him for the crime of bullying the king in a blink of an eye, do you believe it or not?

Even if the six of us work together, we can't beat him, if he is really ruthless,

Desperately make Datang a mess, you touch your hearts and ask,

Can you really stop it? ”。

"Then Li Shimin won't be so unruly," Xiao Cui said weakly.

"If you don't follow the rules first, what rules do you still ask others to abide by", Lao Wang glanced at him and continued:

"What's more, Li Shimin was originally an unruly lord, did you forget about Li Jiancheng?

Now that he has finally become the emperor, he has sat on the chessboard in a proper manner.

You still want to flip the chessboard directly?

Is it true that Li Shimin is muddy? He's the same as which emperor we've seen before?

Yang Guang'er didn't take us seriously before, we provoked him to destroy him,

Now we are a nail in Li Shimin's heart,

You should be glad that Najieli came early and gave Li Shimin a threat,

Otherwise, when he stabilizes his position, the first one to attack will be us.

Even with the Turkic threat, he still regards us as his greatest enemy.

It's not so easy to play with the emperor between applause as before."

The old king's beard is trembling, why is the older generation of the Cui family dead?

There are only two bastard things left who refuse to die, if the Cui family goes on like this,

Neither of the two Cui clans wants to have a good end.

Lao Wang's voice fell, and no one spoke for a long time.

Now it is indeed not like before, they can be allowed to do whatever they want, and Li Shimin has indeed regarded them as the number one enemy.

"So what should we do? Then Li Shimin put our territory, no,

Having bought all the coal mines in various places, we are thinking about our own multiple ways to make money, is there really no other way? ”，

Someone else spoke.

Lao Wang looked at the person who spoke, stroked his beard and said:

"Lao Zheng, don't be impatient, there is still a way to do this."

Coal sales in Chang'an were in full swing, and within a few days, the news was transmitted back to the various families.

After a brief period of hesitation and understanding, all the Maisons decided almost at the same time,

In such a matter of making a fortune, they also have to intervene in such a hand.

It's just another business that is not inferior to salt, how can such a good thing be inferior to them.

But when the people they sent out came back dejected, they realized that things were not so simple.

More than ten days ago, many people saw that someone had bought all their Blackstone mines.

Such a hot potato is a great thing for the government and for those unlucky people who have been divided into black stone land.

Almost without any hesitation, all the coal mines went into someone else's hands.

Now they want to buy it, so they can only go to the same people who bought the land in the first place.

The people of the family were furious at that time, and immediately searched for those who had cut off their wealth.

The results of the investigation left everyone silent.

It was the Xuanjia Army who bought the land? That is to say, it was Li Shimin who bought the land?

That's the big deal, so there is today's scene.

All the actual leaders of the family gathered together to discuss how to deal with Li Shimin.

"Since you can't rob it? Do we still have to talk to Li Shimin about something? ”，

Lao Cui was quite a little whipped and glared.

Lao Wang glanced at him helplessly and nodded lightly.

"Talking, not only to talk, but also this time we have to suffer a lot of losses."

"Still suffering? No, if you want me to say, let's work together again to mess up his Li family,

It's a big deal to change the emperor again, this time if it's our people, I don't believe it, he Li Shimin really no one dares to mess with him."

Lao Cui still can't accept the facts in front of him.

Xiao Cui also nodded to the side to cater to it.

Lao Wang glanced at the two helplessly: "If you want to provoke war again, then you two should go,

We will not participate, whether it is successful or not, it has nothing to do with us, come people, send off guests".

The two Cui people were stunned, and they wanted to say something, but they were half-forced to go out by the people behind Lao Wang.

"Hi", Lao Zheng sighed:

"Good people don't live long, and disasters are left for thousands of years, how come the two Cui clans, there are only two such things left after they die."

Lao Wang nodded approvingly: "These two people are not dying, don't think about a good end for the two Cui families."

"Okay, okay, let's discuss our affairs, they will figure out their own affairs", Lao Lu came out and pulled the topic on the right track.

Lao Wang nodded:

"Then continue what we just said, go and negotiate with Li Shimin, how important the coal matter is, you must know it in your hearts,

Don't have any more thoughts like rebellion, not to mention that our strength is not as good as Li Shimin,

It's the Central Plains now, and it really can't withstand a big war."

Lao Zheng nodded: "Hmph, they have been bastards since they were children, and now they don't know that the people are the root of our family.

The people are all gone, and they go and do not give power to others?"

After speaking, he turned his head to look at Lao Wang: "You say, how can we talk, how much blood has come out this time, I have admitted it to the Zheng family in Xingyang."

"Don't worry, don't worry, isn't there a master right now, what's wrong Lao Li, he hasn't spoken all the time, is he just waiting for now",

Lao Wang touched his chin and asked the old man who had not spoken.

Lao Li nodded with a wry smile: "Hey, the family is unfortunate, I have to rush to join Li Shimin's command,

really let them find out the origin of the two Li families, which is not clear,

But today, the old man really came to pass on the message to Li Shimin."
