Chapter 318: A few tricks

A truckload of coal noodles was sent to the designated place for people to pour water, and the three of them stopped performing and telling stories to tourists.

"Do you want to use briquettes? This is only when the kang is burned in the north of the Yellow River, and I have seen the Zhang and Wang families tell others how to prevent the method called carbon monoxide poisoning, and the people here do not burn the kang. ”

Old man Bi looked at the busy people and said to himself.

"Take a look." Old man Zhang only slept on the kang when he entered Beijing before the Chinese New Year, hard, and he was not used to sleeping, but it was warm, and he couldn't think of what Xiaobao and Juan Juan were going to do when they bought a lot of coal face, so they stood at a high point and watched.

As soon as the coal face was delivered to the place, the people in the inner courtyard of the Zhang family organized people to do the work, and they did not cover it, and whoever wanted to see it could see it, in addition to the coal face, there were also yellow mud and straw, sorghum stalks, and wheat straw, as well as the broken charcoal powder left over from the charcoal burning at home.

The iron mold that had been made long ago was also moved outside and put down, and then the living mud began to play, some people were responsible for the living mud, and some people made records, according to different proportions, each proportion made of a hundred kinds of mud balls mixed together, put into the mold and pressed into a cylinder, with many holes in the middle.

After more than half an hour, the cylinders of more than 30 proportions were all made, placed outside to dry, and guarded by special personnel.

Old man Yao pulled over one of the maids of the Zhang family, "Little Peach, what are you doing?" ”

"Back to the old man's words, the little boy and the little lady let the honeycomb coal, see which ratio is easy to use, cost-effective, and then specially made, used to boil water and cook rice, there is a special stove, one hole, four holes, or even nine holes, according to the number of people to arrange.

Coal face is not valuable, other things are not valuable, make honeycomb coal can save firewood and feed, the most important thing is to use when convenient, not easy to cause fire. ”

The maid does not hide it, and answers any questions.

"What's the use of saving firewood?" Old man Yao still couldn't figure it out.

"It can be used to make charcoal, charcoal has more uses, and the price is much higher than honeycomb coal, the most important thing is that the Yellow River is more difficult to use coal, the less you like to use coal, it is used in the north, the coal face will be wasted, and the saved straw can also be used to distill liquor, even if people don't drink it, it can be used in other aspects."

The maid Xiaotao didn't make a loud noise this time, but leaned into Old Man Yao's ear and whispered to him.

Old man Yao was slightly stunned: "Straw can also distill liquor?" Then you have to surround this place, and now you can see it, and others will learn it, is it said on the stove. ”

"The little boy said that he could, and the little boy said that after distilling the straw, the things can be made into paper, and the good straw and other orange stalks are used to feed the cows, and it is a pity that they are burned.

This doesn't need to be kept secret, the stove is very easy to do, you will look at it at a glance, and when the best ratio is brought out, a notice will be posted so that others know how to use coal face to make honeycomb coal, and the orange stalks saved are good for us to establish acquisition and processing points in various places, and our family's major matters related to people's livelihood are never kept secret,"

The maid knew a lot, and answered a question from Old Man Yao.

The last sentence she said, the three old men selectively believed it, to say that there was no secret, it was indeed not confidential, the methods of raising poultry and interbreeding and interbreeding were all taken out, and the method of building greenhouses in the north was also handed over, but it was handed over when the Zhang and Wang families did not need to rely on such methods to make money or when they needed to exchange benefits.

Is this honeycomb coal now ready to be used in exchange for benefits, or does it not need to be relied on to make money? It's hard to figure out.

may also feel that what he said is a bit untenable, and the maid Xiaotao explained again, "In fact, doing this thing in Baoxin County has another effect, that is, to crack down on the cross-industry economic strategy of Sihai Academy, and some time ago they came to sell silver ore, which is a series of plans."

It's just that they met the little boy, and they didn't wait for them to plan to be cut off together, but there was still a little trouble in the follow-up, the forest land they bought, and the straw to be purchased at a high price, would make the county lack firewood for a certain period of time, and transporting firewood from elsewhere would increase the cost.

Xiao Gongzi means that let others know that as long as he is still here, don't think about using the method of attacking my Datang people's livelihood to gain personal gain, don't report that there is a fluke mentality, and he will not give a chance at all, even if it is just a short-term calculation of firewood and straw, he will die as soon as possible. ”

When he said this, Xiao Tao raised his head proudly, looking like the world is big, and he looks like he is no other.

The three old men understood, it turned out that Xiaobao was angry, because the people of Sihai Academy dared to come over to find trouble when they knew that he was an official in Baoxin County, and they did not admit defeat and retreat, and wanted to target the other party once, playing the role of knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger and killing the chicken and the monkey.

It is to tell other people who don't think like this, don't play tricks in front of me, if you play tricks, as long as I pass, you have to give me back, there is no room for negotiation.

Old man Zhang smiled, "Hehe, good, domineering enough, can match Juan Juan." ”

"It seems that the two of them have indeed gotten the true biography, the most important thing is not to simply defeat others, if it is just defeated, my good granddaughter Xin'er can also do it, the main thing is that Xiaobao did not forget to take into account the people's livelihood when cleaning up the opponent.

Well, like the masters taught by the Zhang family, at least kill two birds with one stone, otherwise it won't be calculated, and the two of them will be counted on in the future. ”

Old man Bi, who knows the methods of the Zhang and Wang families best, is now relieved, he feels that even if the master who has been hiding behind the Zhang and Wang families dies, there is no need to worry about no one inheriting it, and when the time comes, when Xiaobao and Juan Juan are bigger, teach their skills to others, and the future generations of Datang will not have to worry about encountering sudden crises.

Unless it is the emperor who encounters mediocrity, it is estimated that such a thing cannot occur, if the current emperor is mediocre, maybe the masters of the Zhang and Wang families can ...... You can ...... Li Xun? I can't think about this anymore.

Old man Bi, who thought of something, couldn't help but tremble, and at the same time had a trace of fear for the Zhang and Wang families.

Old man Yao didn't follow the Zhang and Wang families from Sanshui County like Old Man Bi, and his understanding of the two families was not as good as Old Man Bi, and he didn't know that the Zhang family had always acted in a plan, and a plan would definitely not be just for one purpose, and when it was used, people couldn't figure it out, and they couldn't stop it if they wanted to.

For example, Sanshui was raised from Zhongxian to Shangxian County, and the eight hands were pushed, all of which were laid out little by little when others couldn't think of it.

He almost died after he was sick, and after he was brought to Shuzhou, he gradually integrated into the life of the Zhang and Wang families, which was much worse than Old Man Bi, but he also knew part of the situation, such as the construction of Shuzhou, the arrangement of the river embankment, and the various practices of Yizhou.

When Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan began to understand two different wars, the two of them united, not only won the two wars, but also calculated a handful of Tubo, and gave Jiannan Dao a lot of livestock at a low price.

According to this statement, it is estimated that Xiaobao still has a backhand.

Thinking like this, Old Man Yao asked the maid Xiaotao again, "What else is there besides this?" ”

"And? Anything else? Xiao Tao asked rhetorically, looked down and said: "Maybe, I heard the little boy and the little lady mention, in the future, make more paper, continue to study printing, so that more people don't have to worry about paper, bad paper is used to make eggs, easy to transport, and can also build a house."

I don't understand the rest, there should be, the little lady and the little boy discussed this matter for three days, and it didn't take so long. ”

That is, there are three old men thinking at the same time.

As long as there were many things, the three old men were in a good mood, and when they saw that the honeycomb coal could not be dried for a while, they ran to the model to have fun again, and seemed very happy.

Some people are happy, and some people are sad.

Zhang said that he is worried now, who to arrange to Xincai County, first of all, it must be his own people, and secondly, he must be able to stand alone and understand how to advance and retreat, and Xincai County in the future will not be as simple as it is now.

"Zishou, help me think about who should be sent to Xincai County, if you really have the ability, be able to do practical things, and be able to deal with the business of the two families of Zhang and Wang there, and you can't restrict the two families of Zhang and Wang from doing business, in case the party is stunned in the past, and the problem of the original county order is not found, and the business of the two families of Zhang and Wang is done first, then it will cause a big disaster."

Zhang said that he had no idea for a while, and turned his head to ask Zhang Jiuling, who was approached by him to discuss things.

Zhang Jiuling is also worried, he really doesn't want to get involved, he doesn't want to offend both sides, can Zhang and Wang stop them? The emperor can only exchange conditions, let alone others.

Listening to Zhang Shuo ask himself, he had to say: "Just send an obedient person over, bring two flexible deputies, and check the accounts of Xincai County, but it can't involve Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, let alone the king of Tong'an County.

If you have trouble, ask Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan for advice, and don't make your own decisions, just like the people who are officials in Luzhou, Xiao Gui Cao follows, and it is estimated that there will be no accidents. ”

Zhang Shuo also thought of this, but he was worried that Yu Wenrong's side would oppose it, and he would make a stumbling block behind his back, so he would retreat into advance, give up his position, and not let the person he arranged go over, but sent the person who was not capable on his side to Xincai, waiting to see the excitement.

Here, there are really not many people who can really go down to do things, and they can do things, and they are from the imperial examination, there are such people, such as the people who were admitted to Pujia Academy, it is really easy to use, but it is not their own people, it is Zhang Wang's family, no, absolutely not.

After pondering for a while, Zhang Shuocai sighed slightly, "Officials above the sixth rank can't go, they can only be sent from the sixth rank to the ninth grade, just the six of them, write three first, and wait for others to oppose before putting it forward." ”

"It's fine." Zhang Jiuling saw that Zhang had made up his mind, and knew that it was useless to oppose it, so he agreed.

Zhang Shuo found pen and ink, wrote the names of three people on it, and wrote three more on the bottom, and after thinking about it carefully, he began to write it as an official document.
