Two days later, Bright Moon Villa.

Chen Jintong was wearing a blue embroidered and silver-edged fox skirt, with a pink plum jacket, standing by the window watching the snow, her face was exquisite, her figure was outstanding, she was completely embarrassed in the first two days, and she could see that the old wounds on her body had not healed when she was only walking.

An eighteen or nineteen-year-old boy pushed the door in, dressed in a low-key manner, without even a jade hairpin on his head, and looked unusually quiet when he didn't speak, with a mature temperament that couldn't see his age.

"Miss, it's windy outside, so close the window." He bowed to Chen Jintong, and then came in to pick the fire, Chen Jintong turned around and asked, "Jiuxing, are Sixi'er awake?" ”

Jiuxing replied: "The doctor has seen it, saying that she has been traumatized, and she has been crying all the time, her eyes can't stand it, her body is very tired, and she just woke up for a quarter of an hour and fell asleep again." ”

As he spoke, he used special iron tongs to pick coal and add the furnace fire, the fire burned vigorously, and the room slowly warmed up a little, Chen Jintong saw the coal in the hot furnace, and his eyes suddenly lit up, "Jiuxing, you go and ask someone to find a pile of rotten straw, move it to the coal stove room, and find a few strong family members to go over." ”

Jiuxing is a capable cadre specially trained by his adoptive father Chen Sheng for Chen Jintong, although he is not very old, he is a clever person, and he raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "What does Miss want to do with rotten straw?" In winter, the straw accumulates water and gas, and it is almost rotten, and it is useless to start a fire, so why move to the coal furnace room? ”

Chen Jintong hooked his lips: "I want to make straw briquettes." ”

Jiuxing was a little confused: "What is a straw briquette?" ”

Chen Sheng is an unusual landowner with many industries under his name, and when he was young, he found a coal mine in his own land, so he mined it privately and turned to the famous nobles to sell it, so Jiuxing knew nothing more about coal mines.

"Coal is precious because it takes a long time to form and has limited resources, and it is transformed by complex biochemical and physicochemical processes of plant remains." Chen Jintong personally came over to pick up the fire: "Straw briquettes are turned into treasures, using the residues of crops such as wheat stalks, rice stalks, and straw discarded in the field, and pressing them into a rod-shaped solid pellet fuel that can be burned directly through a series of technical means. ”

Jiuxing listened attentively, and finally couldn't help but light up his eyes: "Is there such a way in the world?" Then let's develop a big way to make money again! ”

"Naturally. Briquettes pellet fuel after briquetting is large, small in size, easy to store and transport, is a high-quality solid fuel, its calorific value can reach about 1.5 times that of the existing coal after combustion, has the advantages of flammability, less ash, low cost, etc., can be widely used in heating, living stoves, boilers and the like. Chen Jin's eyes lit up, "In the future, coal will also be an ordinary fuel that ordinary people can afford." ”

More importantly, she wants to use the birth of straw coal to lure the Chen family into the set.

After an afternoon of pounding in the coal furnace room, more than a dozen strong men also used some simple rolling tools to make more than ten catties of straw briquettes that looked like coal, which looked no different from ordinary briquettes, black and irregular, the surface was uneven, and it was not as heavy as ordinary briquettes.

But Jiuxing burns the residue with the same amount of burning effect as ordinary briquettes, and you know what Chen Jintong means: indeed, straw briquettes are more geothermal than ordinary briquettes, the key is that the cost is very low, agriculture is the foundation of people's livelihood, and a large number of wastes such as straw crop shells in the field every year cannot be wasted, and they are burned too fast as fuel and are not burned, so the birth of straw coal must be a good thing for people's livelihood.

"How?" Chen Jintong appeared at the door, but he was startled, there was a bloated woman standing at the door, her hair coiled behind her head, revealing sallow and rough cheeks, and a big black mole at the corner of her lips, with a big belly of five or six months, and she was so ugly that she couldn't see Chen Jintong's original appearance at all.

"Miss?" Jiuxing wondered.

Chen Jintong glanced at the finished briquettes and patted his stomach: "Jiuxing, with this briquette, let's go to Wu'an Houfu to sell coal." ”

Jiuxing was dragged away by Chen Jintong with a confused expression, and it wasn't until the two of them stood at the door of Chen's Mansion that he looked at him with a complicated expression, "Miss, why do we want to sell straw coal to Wu'an Hou Mansion?" Such high-end households generally have fixed procurement channels, and straw coal is our newly researched secret recipe......"

"Shhhh You hide to the side first. Chen Jintong put his finger to his lips and watched a teenage doorman open the door and come out, wrapped in cotton clothes and only revealing a pair of sleepy eyes: "Who, knock on a cold day!" ”

The doorman glanced at Chen Jintong and the two, and saw that they were dressed ordinarily and carrying a basket of black things, and his face fell: "What's the matter with you?" ”

Chen Jintong handed the basket forward, held his waist and sighed: "Little brother, these straw coals are the secret recipes left by my old man, which are better than the coal on the market, you can buy some." ”

The doorman's face turned completely dark: "It turned out to be a coal seller!" Hehe, what kind of bullshit new secret recipe, everyone uses the same coal, and your family can still burn flowers? Go and go, don't knock on the door if it's okay, be careful I beat you. ”

After that, he's going to close the door.

Chen Jintong hurriedly squeezed it up, and quietly took out a few taels of silver and stuffed it to him: "It's really hard at home, I still have to spend a lot of money to raise this in my stomach in the future, little brother, you can do it well, you can only buy ten catties." ”

The doorman pinched the silver and looked at her suspiciously: "Your family is having a hard time, do you still have this money?" ”

Chen Jintong wiped the corners of his eyes: "I won't tell you, this is the last family foundation in the family, and I am ready to prepare new clothes for the children, but our family has no other livelihood, so we are counting on the recognition of this new straw coal energy from a large family, as long as you use it well and publicize it to the old woman, I will have a business in the future." ”

The doorman was moved and promised: "Cheng, I see that you are pitiful, so I will help you back, but you should leave quickly, if the master comes back, I can't speak." ”

He accepted the straw coal and closed the door, Chen Jintong nodded in the dark, ready to leave, who knew that it was such a coincidence, Chen Rongan and Dongfang Xuanze were coming back from outside together, and Chen Rongan didn't know what to say, he walked backwards very excitedly, his steps were quite fast, he didn't pay attention to the pregnant woman behind him, and when he reacted, he had knocked Chen Jintong to the ground.

"Ah, my stomach ......" Chen Jintong took advantage of the situation to the end, gesturing to Jiuxing not to act rashly, and dragged Chen Rongan's pants to prevent him from leaving, "My stomach hurts so much." ”

Dongfang Xuanze paused, and subconsciously pulled Chen Rongan, lest he lose his center of gravity and hit the person on the ground, his eyes fell, and he became a little deeper.

Chen Jintong held his stomach and met the man's gaze, was slightly stunned, and quickly lowered his eyes.

He is the man of that day!

After she returned to Mingyue Villa, she asked Jiuxing to check the details of this person.

King Xuan's son, Dongfang Xuanze.

King Xuan is a king with a different surname, Dongfang Xuanze was raised in the capital since he was a child, seemingly noble, but in fact he is a hostage-like existence, the world says that he has no desires and no desires, Tsing Yi brushes his sleeves and does not listen to things outside the window, and his face is unparalleled, and his talent is world-famous, so the world is called - Wushuang Gongzi.

"Who-...... you" Chen Rongan was about to get angry, seeing that it was a pregnant woman holding her stomach with a painful face, she was afraid that things would make a big deal, so she hurriedly threw down a silver ingot and didn't even look at it: "It's you who don't hit me with long eyes, don't think about me, quickly take the silver and leave!" ”

Saying that, he also wanted to raise his foot to kick the person away, but Dongfang Xuanze pulled the person back with a gesture of caring about him: "Brother Chen is okay, right?" ”

"I'm fine, let's go in first." Chen Rongan glared at the pregnant woman on the ground fiercely, and then pulled Dongfang Xuanze back, still muttering in his mouth, "It's really unlucky." ”

Chen Jintong glanced at Dongfang Xuanze, clenched his hands and picked up the silver from the ground, and said in a low voice: "Thank you, son." ”

She deliberately lowered her throat and turned around and limped away.

Chen Rongan was too lazy to look at it, but Dongfang Xuanze looked at Chen Jintong's back and suddenly smiled.
