On the occasion of the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day, I wish all friends who read books a happy holiday, thank you for your blessings and encouragement. The following text:

Farewell Cheng Hao replied to the Di shop, He Libo had already returned, and said that Yu Danian and Yin Shijie were ready, and they would pick up Wang next to him early tomorrow morning and go to the fast ground he had bought.

Early the next morning, Yu Danian came to Didian to pick up Wang, Wang saw that the road he led was different from the last time, Yu Danian explained: "This road leads from the county seat to Tangjia Village under Bohuling. ”

The king had the impression that there was no such way before. Yu Danian said: "The county master saw that the soldiers were too idle, so he let them do some work. And you funded the school, and the county magistrate posted an announcement. The people in our village, and the people in the county, knew that your name was also here to help, so they opened this road. ”

The king said: "It's hard for everyone, and it took so much effort."

Yu Danian said, "It's not difficult, there was originally a road here, but in recent years, few people have walked, we just have nothing to do except for sundries, walk a few more times, and the road will come out again." ”

Wang laughed out loud, Cheng Hao thought thoughtfully, and Erxiao remembered a sentence. He said: "Lu Xun said: There is no road in this world, and when there are more people, it becomes a road. ”

Yu Danian asked stupidly: "Who is Lu Xun?" ”

He Libo shook his head: "It may be an adult in the court." I really haven't heard of Childe say this, Lord Lu. ”

Wang listened to the conversation between the two, thinking to himself that I had never seen this Lord Lu, "I'm afraid you won't have the chance to meet." He smiled and urged the horse to speed up.

When the three of them were about to reach the entrance of the village, the king saw someone waiting there, and when the man saw someone coming, he turned around and ran into the village, shouting as he ran, "The prince is coming." As if a sentry had seen the enemy, he was in a hurry to ventilate and report the news.

When I entered the village, I saw that the doors of the houses on both sides of the village were open, and the old people and children of the village were standing at the door of their houses and looking at the king. The king turned over and dismounted, if he was in the royal street, he would definitely pass with his head held high, but this place was different.

When he was in the capital before, Wang Fang also knew about it like Yin Shijie and Yu Danian. Tangjia Village was originally almost a deserted village, there were only a few families in the village, all of them were old people with children of the next generation, some adults went to the county seat to work as slaves and maids for the rich, and some went to other wealthy villages and towns to do long-term work in large farmland households.

From the eyes of these ragged villagers, it seems that Wang Pan sees expectations, and of course there are also questions about why Wang Pan chose this barren land. No matter what these people think, the king knows that this place is full of treasures. Not only the coal underground, but also the mines in the mountains.

The village is not large, and a house stands out among the old village houses, which have been renovated and renovated from the abandoned house of a wealthy family here.

At the door of the house was standing Yin Shijie and some workers, when Yin Shijie was in Meyer's Mansion, he saw Lu Shenyan arranging the family to do things every day, and when he saw the people next to the king walking in, they also greeted the queue, and the workers stood together.

The king greeted them and walked into the house, the house itself is too big, renovated, the front yard is relatively wide is the hall and the east and west wings, from the corner gate into the inner house is three main rooms. There are two transepts on the east and west.

Yin Shijie asked the workers' courtyard to wait, and Wang entered the main hall to take a look, facing a table and two chairs, as well as seats and square tables arranged for guests on the left and right, two chairs, a square table as a group, and three groups on both sides. This main hall is still quite large.

The king commanded that all the people in the courtyard should enter the main hall, and called them all to sit down. Seeing that there were many people in their thirties and forties, he arched his hand and asked everyone. I don't know which one is Li Jian.

This name is also known from Wang Bin's detailed discussion with Yin Shijie and Yu Danian, this person has been mining coal for the longest time, and he has been working with his father since he was a child. An old man in his forties and fifties, with a black and red face, hurriedly stood up and said, "It's me." ”

Wang Bei saw that this person was indeed the oldest among these people, and hurriedly said to the road: "This Uncle Li, when I was in the capital, I often heard Yin Shijie and Yu Danian talk about it, saying that you have the most accurate view and the most experience. Thank you in advance for helping me. ”

The old man hurriedly said: "Son, don't be so polite, you have a great favor in taking our village, and you greet us people, there is no way to repay it." ”

Wang said: "Yu Danian, Yin Shijie and the others are younger than you, but they have read some books, I want them to manage, Uncle Li is experienced in assisting the two of them, do you have any opinions?" ”

Although everyone didn't know what management assistance was specifically about, they also roughly understood that they were willing to obey.

When the king saw that the crowd had no opinion, he asked, "Who has a daughter-in-law who can be a female worker?" The job is to cook for everyone, wash clothes, and clean the house. ”

Then five or six men raised their hands, and the king said, "Call them all tomorrow." ”

Everyone looked at each other and looked at Li Laohan, and the old man said: "Our mother-in-law in this place is capable, two or three people are enough, I don't think my mother-in-law will come." Hearing him say this, someone said: "Then my family is different, there are more people who let my son break the bank." ”

Wang said with a smile: "I am free to arrange, everyone is tired today, please leave Li Laohan for the time being, I have something to ask." The others went home and got ready, and tomorrow was the time to start work. ”

Everyone was very happy when they heard this, and they all retreated, and only He Libo, Yu Danian, Yin Shijie, and that Li Laohan were left in the room.

Wang Bian asked Li Laohan for advice: "The old man has been digging coal for so long, can he have research on this coal?" ”

The old man said: "I can't talk about research, but there are three kinds of coal, if the son wants to hear it, I will talk about it." ”

The king said, "Listen to me! ”

Li Laohan told Wang that there are three kinds of coal: open coal, crushed coal and end coal.

The size of the open coal is relatively large, some of which are close to the size of a rice bucket, and a small amount of charcoal is needed to ignite it, and there is no need to use a bellows to blow the air when burning.

There are two kinds of crushed coal, the one with a high flame is called "rice charcoal" that can cook rice, and the one with a slightly flatter flame is called "iron carbon", which is generally used when striking iron. When this coal is used, it should be wet with water first, and it should be assisted by a bellows, and it should be added at any time.

There is also a kind called end coal, also called "tap wind", which is to mix water and mud to make briquettes. The last coal can be used to cook rice, smelt copper, melt stones, and smelt cinnabar.

Wang Jian listened and nodded, it seems that this Li Laohan is not just looking at the ground. He knew that people who were experienced in coal mining could tell if there was coal underneath just by the quality of the soil on the ground.

Wang asked next to him: "Uncle Li, according to you, there is coal in the terrain here." Naturally, he said that he had bought the land.

The old man smiled: "This is a good place, but the mountains and land grass in this place are not good to grow." ”

Wang Bi asked again: "If the construction starts today, how long will it take to dig it?" ”

Li Laohan said: "This well has to be dug five or six zhang deep, and if you find the right coal, it will take about ten days for three or four people to dig it at the same time." ”

Yu Danian said: "Childe, we can start work in three places at the same time. ”

Wang Bi shook his head: "You listen to my arrangement, in the future, Yin Shijie will be responsible for the silver and silver affairs, Yu Danian will be responsible for the daily contact and transportation, and Li Laohan will be responsible for the supervision of coal digging." In addition, you will dig coal in the future according to the division of labor I have given you. ”

He took out some pieces of paper that he had already prepared, on which were written the specific division of labor and the number of people. He also instructed three people to start digging a well tomorrow, one of whom was responsible for preparing a bamboo pole of more than five or six zhang, and two of whom were responsible for preparing planks and sticks of wood of the required size. There are two people who are responsible for renovating and preparing a cattle carousel waterwheel. Alter the artificial image by means of teleportation.

Before digging, the canopy should be built, and the stakes must be strong as the well is ready to be cut, and the workers must be protected from top to bottom. If you dig up coal, don't rush to pick it up for the time being, use a hollow bamboo pole to insert it into the coal seam. It is necessary to let the poison gas for three to five days.

At the same time, Yu Danian was instructed to go to the blacksmith shop to make a number of safety hats according to the drawings.

Wang looked at it again, and the cinders purchased by Yin Shijie and the others at low prices everywhere had all been stored according to their own requirements, and they were much more than those that were temporarily made last year. But even if these are used, they are just enough for the palace. The king commanded that the goods should continue to be received this year. The receiving price is one penny lower than last year.

After all these explanations were completed, Wang Bi went around the palace again, and the west wing room was made into a conference room according to his ideas, as he had explained before. He pointed to the table and chair and Yu Danian Yin Shijie and said, "In the future, you and I will discuss matters here." ”

The men obeyed the orders and went to each of them to prepare, and the king still went back to the county seat that night. Yin Shijie asked, is Childe dissatisfied with this residence? The king said, "I have other arrangements for this accommodation."

Riding back to the county seat, thinking about his own arrangement, he was about to operate step by step according to his own ideas, Wang Bei's heart was extremely happy, He Libo said: "Brother, I didn't know that you still knew how to dig coal. ”

The king said, "What is this, I will let my brother see more slowly in the future." "It's time to be low-key, but in this small Jincheng County, when it's about to show its strength, it's time to be crazy.

The next day, after seeing those daughters-in-law, Wang saw that Li Jian's family really looked virtuous and stable, so he arranged for her to take care of things, and arranged for people to cook, wash, and clean every day.

The daughters-in-law of each family also said that they could not use these many people, and they were humble to each other. And the king said, "You don't have to." There are two people who take care of children under the age of six.

He said to Yin Shijie again: "In the inner house, vacate a house as a book house." Let children over the age of six read to school. You have to ask a gentleman to prepare a place to live for him. ”

Wang next to such an arrangement, everyone is even more grateful. Wang also posted a notice in the village that all laborers who were willing to return to the village could report to Yu Danian, and the children of the village could also study here.

Originally, Wang Bei arranged the division of labor carefully, and at the moment, this ** person may not be enough, not to mention that Yu Danian's transportation team has no manpower, and the items needed to enter the village and the coal to be transported to the capital in large quantities all need cars, cattle and coachmen.

A few days after the notice came out, almost all the middle-aged people in the village returned. The king first set up three separate branches for them to repair the house. Everyone has something to do, there is a salary to get, this village immediately lively, spring March is a good time to start work, into the village to meet the smiling people in full swing to transform the village, start construction, a derivation. There was also the original Yu Danian Murakami, who simply moved over as a family.
