According to Gonggong Feng, in recent days, there have been several groups of businessmen in Lin'an City who are secretly buying coal and soil mixtures. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoThe price they offer is much higher than Zhao Shuo's, and it is still a door-to-door service service. Send someone directly to the seller's home and buy the thing directly.

When this kind of thing happened, Zhao Shuo was mentally prepared. After all, briquettes are on fire, and some people perceive business opportunities and must imitate them, which is already a tradition.

Now I think about it, the rise in raw material prices is not just as simple as sellers wanting to make money, but it is also possible that these businessmen are obstructing it. I want to reap the benefits of a fisherman.

The method of making briquettes is only known to Zhao Shuo and a few subordinates, and they have hoarded so many raw materials, the most logical explanation is to monopolize the market, raise the price, and then sell it to Zhao Shuo to make a profit.

But the risk is too great, as March is just around the corner. Although this winter is a little colder, it will not exceed a month at most, and the temperature will rise sharply, and at that time, the role of briquettes is almost negligible.

After some thought, Zhao Shuo felt that the purpose of these businessmen was most likely to privately study the method of making briquettes.

Although this winter is coming away, after a few months, the next winter will come again. Briquettes have now been accepted by the residents of Lin'an City and have become a must-have for winter.

If these people are playing with this idea, then things will be a little troublesome, after all, it is not easy for people with such a unique vision.

Thinking of this, Zhao Shuo asked openly to Feng Gong beside him. "Remember the blacksmith who made us something?"

Gonggong Feng was stunned for a moment, and after thinking for a while, he spoke. "Remember, his blacksmith shop is not far from us, and he came to the mansion to buy briquettes a few days ago, why did His Highness suddenly ask him, do you want to build something?"

Zhao Shuo shook his head, "I want to give him a fortune." Take off the sackcloth and put on Fluttershy's new cotton clothes, Zhao Shuo continued. I just don't know if he has this blessing. ”

"Your Highness, this blacksmith is not bad, the old slave has known him for some days, an honest person." Gonggong Feng said while straightening out Zhao Shuo's newly put on cotton clothes.

"If it is really as Gonggong Feng said, let him follow us in the future." Zhao Shuo smiled slightly.

"If that's the case, it's really a blessing from his tenth generation." Father-in-law Feng said, leading in front and opening the door of the main house.

Fluttershy is still listening, choking on her grandfather when she opens the door.

"Your Highness, slave maid ......"

She didn't know what to say, so she fell to her knees.

Eavesdropping on the master's conversation is a terrible thing. There are not a few people who are accused of a crime and killed in private.

"You girl, how can you do such a thing, do you know......" Gonggong Feng was also a little anxious. If it was before, that Zhao Shuo would have been fine, but now this Zhao Shuo, who is becoming more and more like a prince, even he doesn't dare to be so casual as before. Now that Fluttershy has done something like this, he can't guess what Zhao Shuo will do.

"Your Highness, Fluttershy is a good girl, but her curiosity is a little heavier, you see, for the sake of her loyal service to you, let her go for once." Grandpa Feng doesn't know what to say about Fluttershy, so he pleads with Zhao Shuo.

Zhao Shuo didn't have to think about it to know that he had seen too much of it in previous TV series. The heroine and the hero got angry, and then left angrily, hiding outside the door, and when the hero went out to look for it, the two of them released their previous suspicions, got back together, and lived together like glue again. Although things are different, the curiosity of women is the same.

After saying that, it was normal for Fluttershy to want to hear what Zhao Shuo would say outside the door, especially when Grandpa Feng said "If you like it, take it" after entering the door, it was even more like a magic that fixed Fluttershy outside the door, and it was difficult to move a single step.

"Grandpa Feng, you get up first." With that, Zhao Shuo looks at Fluttershy. "Fluttershy, you heard what I said."

Fluttershy nods, but her head lowers and lowers.

"Hear it, hear it!" Zhao Shuo let out a sigh of relief, those words were meant for Fluttershy, and he didn't want to meet Fluttershy every day in the future, in an awkward atmosphere.

But having said that, eavesdropping on this problem is not a good thing after all, so after a pause, Zhao Shuo continued. "Although you are nominally my subordinates, I have always treated you as family. Since it's a family member, eavesdropping on this kind of thing, I don't want to have a second time in the future. ”

"You girl, Your Highness is so tolerant, you have something to say." Grandpa Feng said with Fluttershy looking down all the time, and said with some depression.

"Yes, the slave knows, and the slave will never do such a thing again." Fluttershy cried in her voice, and she didn't know if the little girl was aggrieved or moved.

"What are you crying about!" Zhao Shuo shook his head slightly, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. "As my night maid, you can't hide from it in the future."

After Zhao Shuo finished speaking, Fluttershy's crying paused, and she raised her head and stared at Zhao Shuo with a pair of big watery eyes.

"Get up, and come with us to see the honest blacksmith." Zhao Shuo rubs Fluttershy's head, then walks to the gate with a smile.

"Hurry up, what a good thing this is, take care of His Highness carefully in the future, don't do such a thing, the province will make His Highness angry." After Gonggong Feng finished speaking, he trotted and chased after him.

Fluttershy wipes tears from the corners of her eyes, laughs, and gets up to follow.

It has been more than half a month since Jin Bing evacuated Lin'an, and after realizing that Jin Bing really will not come back, the streets have gradually become lively.

However, Zhao Shuo did not have the slightest interest in these, what he was looking for now was the honest blacksmith.

Many of the pedestrians on the street know Zhao Shuo, although they still don't look down on this illegitimate son of Qinzong in their bones, but there is still a number of etiquette. In addition to the current Zhao Shuo Mansion Gate, because of the relationship between briquettes, it has become the most lively Mansion Gate in Lin'an City. No one knows what His Royal Highness will do in the future, so he is even more polite.

As a prince, Zhao Shuo naturally didn't have to care about the etiquette of these civilians along the way, but when someone saluted, he habitually bowed his head slightly to show respect.

The blacksmith shop was indeed not far from Zhao Shuo's residence, and after walking through three intersections, a somewhat deserted blacksmith shop appeared in front of Zhao Shuo as if it had been ransacked.

There are no blacksmiths here, and there is no iron-making stove, and it is said that this is a blacksmith shop because these three words are still written on the façade.

Zhao Shuo's brows couldn't help frowning. He had wanted to tell the blacksmith how to use the stove and take it under his command. After all, there are many things that will be used in the future, and it is still necessary to have a blacksmith.

But now it seems that things have changed a little, and Zhao Shuo can be sure that those people are eyeing the briquettes.

In order to get the briquettes, these people are not only staring at the raw materials, but also looking for all the information related to the briquettes, including the blacksmith.

After Zhao Shuo was silent for a moment, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. "Something that targets me will pay a terrible price."
