Wei Renshi rested at home for a day, and as soon as he got up early the next morning, he heard a knock on the door.

Xi'er went over and opened the door, but it was Jiao Haiqing outside, connecting his father and eldest brother.

As soon as the door opened, the people outside saw Wei Renshi, and Jiao Haiqing's father and eldest brother hurriedly bent down to salute.

After bending down, he saw Jiao Haiqing stunned there, so he quickly pulled him.

"What are you doing?" Wei Renshi looked at Jiao Haiqing, who was stunned, and grinned.

"Why did you suddenly change from Wei Langjun to Lord Wei...... It's a bit emotional. Jiao Haiqing said.

Wei Renshi smiled again: "Why did you come here so early?" This early morning ......"

Jiao Haiqing replied: "Isn't this thinking that I can catch up with breakfast?" ”

The two looked at each other and smiled, but Jiao Haiqing's father and eldest brother were both at a loss.

Jiao Haiqing seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, turned his head to his father and eldest brother and said, "You see, I just said that my friendship with Wei Langjun is there, and Aya and the eldest brother's set is useless to Wei Langjun." ”

Wei Renshi looked at the two of them and said with a smile: "You two, I haven't seen you for a long time, let's sit down and have breakfast." ”

The three of them sat down, and Jiao Haiqing's father said to Wei Renshi first: "We came this time to talk to Lord Wei about business. We haven't sent you any account sharing these days, and when I heard that you were back, I just hurried to tell you about it. ”

Wei Renshi shook his head and said, "I'm afraid that the money I borrowed before has not been deducted, and Shopkeeper Jiao doesn't have to be like this, how it was before, and what will happen in the future." Otherwise, teach me how to interact with Brother Haiqing in the future? I don't have many friends in Fuchang, only Changji and Haiqing are the best. If it weren't for Brother Haiqing's help, where would I have been able to save my family business in the first place. You don't have to be so angry. ”

"You were Haiqing's life-saver...... This is really a blessing that Haiqing cultivated in his previous life. Jiao Haiqing's father thanked Wei Renshi with great emotion.

Jiao Haiqing said beside him: "Wei Langjun, when you come back this time, I have to talk to you in detail about the matter of Pingshan." ”

Wei Renshi nodded, he was also preparing to go to Pingshan.

After the three of them had breakfast, Jiao Haiqing asked his father and eldest brother to leave first, and he and Wei Renshi went to Pingshan together.

On the way, the two chatted, and Wei Renshi said with a smile: "Your family is really good at business, this winter, the high-ranking officials and wealthy families in Chang'an City saw a lot of coal stoves and honeycomb coal. When I was in Chang'an, I was curious, this coal stove is easy to say, but honeycomb coal is a consumable, and it is gone when you use it, do you keep transporting coal to Chang'an? In terms of the output here in Pingshan, can you take care of such a large consumption in Chang'an City? ”

"Reluctantly, so the honeycomb coal is sold in Chang'an City, which is more than twice as expensive as in Luoyang City." Jiao Haiqing shook his head and said, "But you can't look at it like that." If the price of honeycomb coal can be cheaper in Chang'an, more people will use it. If the price continues to be so high, it will only give people the impression that the price of honeycomb coal is extremely expensive, which will be unfavorable in the future. ”

Wei Renshi nodded and said, "That's the same." Regardless of the need to convene, the Zhuangzi on my fief was completed in the spring, and I planned to run the fief. There is also a lot of coal in Weinan, which can be directly mined in Weinan and produced locally, and the price of honeycomb coal in Chang'an will drop by then. At that time, for those who have been buying honeycomb coal at a high price before, it will be enough to give some preferential compensation. ”

After that, Wei Renshi asked again: "How are the men?" This will have to be returned to the state capital at that time. ”

"It's all done as you arranged, and it's not diminished at all." Jiao Haiqing said with a smile: "So these people are only afraid that they don't want to work elsewhere at the moment." And with their treatment in front, it has also attracted a lot of people. At present, there are nearly 1,000 people under Pingshan. I also used some connections at home, and pulled three more plots of land under Ping Mountain. ”

"That'll be fine." Wei Renshi said: "Coal is definitely a big business, and it will definitely be bigger than it is today. You have to start off well. It seems that Brother Haiqing really has some skills. ”

"That's it." Jiao Haiqing said with a smirk on his face: "I have been exposed to my father and eldest brother since I was a child, and I actually know the door to door in this business. I didn't do it before, I just didn't bother to move. By the way, I still have some things to tell you. ”

"What?" Wei Renshi asked.

Jiao Haiqing said: "Isn't this a human brother, I think that since the salary with them is so high, and they are still full, then they can't be too idle-ah, this is not what I think, there are some young and strong people, who can't use up their strength, and they want to do some more work and earn more after mining coal-I will use these people to do another job." ”

Damn, the evil capitalist said that he is like this!

"What's the matter?" Wei Renshi rolled his eyes and asked.

"Quarrying." Jiao Haiqing said: "I found that there is not only a lot of coal in this mountain, but also a lot of stone to make lime. So they let them quarry and burn lime. Hehe, it's also a lot of money now. ”

While the two were talking, they had already arrived at the foot of Ping Mountain.

Now this is a very different place, the long wall has appeared before reaching the foot of the mountain, extending to both sides, enclosing a large area of foothills.

Inside is now a hot scene, the workers are doing their own things, and there is no trace of reluctance on their faces.

And it's no wonder.

After all, Wei Renshi paid them a very high salary. A day of work here is worth a few days of work elsewhere. And although the food managed here is simple, it can fill people with a large amount, and it is also a change of tricks, just this one, it can already leave a lot of people.

The two got out of the carriage and walked in, and a cart of coal was pulled to the river, and by the river was a water mill, and next to it stood laborers holding iron hammers, using water mills and hammers to turn the charcoal into powder.

After that, someone takes a sieve and sieves it, and the fine powder is swept up and taken away, and what is left continues to be crushed with a water mill.

When the pulverized coal is pulled to the other side, it begins to mix into a paste in proportion, and then it is made into honeycomb coal with a shearer and left to dry in the sun.

Everything was very well organized.

"Not bad." Wei Renshi nodded, very satisfied.

"That's nature." Jiao Haiqing was very proud: "This is the first time since I opened up so much that I have spent all my thoughts on one thing." I've been living here for months. ”

"Do you want to make something bigger?" Wei Renshi said with a smile.

Jiao Haiqing was stunned for a moment, and immediately said happily: "Oh?!" Tell us about it! ”

Wei Renshi was about to speak, but suddenly saw a wooden cart passing by his side, and he was shocked and stunned for a moment.
