Chapter 983: Plague

Quiet didn't answer, but asked someone to bring a stove, put a piece of honeycomb coal in it, and then add some firewood to light the honeycomb coal.

Seeing that the honeycomb coal was really burning like charcoal, Emperor Xiyun's eyes immediately lit up, "What the hell is this, how can it be burned?" ”

Quietly: "This is something underground, I don't know what it is, I only know that I once inadvertently let it touch the fire and found that it can burn, and Meng Zhuqing He once seemed to have seen this thing with General Meng Lao in Ermin, and later, Meng Zhuqing sent someone to check, and found that there are a lot of things in the Emin area, if we dig this thing to make such a shape to sell, whether it is sold in Xiyun or sold to neighboring countries, we should be able to make a lot of money." ”

"Imperial Father, you said that you made me think of the way to run a school, but now I think about it, I have found everything, now it depends on whether you agree or not."

"By the way, compared to charcoal, Chang Yi joked with me yesterday, I feel good to call this charcoal, what do you think?"

There is no such thing as coal here, and she doesn't want to make a new one, so it's better to call it coal.

When Emperor Xiyun heard that it was Xiao Changyi's name, he immediately smiled and nodded: "The name of Shi Tan is good, so call it Shi Tan." ”

After a pause, Emperor Xiyun groaned: "This coal is in the ground, it needs to be dug, if you want to build a lot, you need a lot of people."

Quietly: "If the imperial father thinks that this method of earning silver is successful, then it will be the same as making white paper, and the money will be paid by the treasury, and all the silver earned in the end will also go to the treasury." ”

Emperor Xiyun looked at the burning coal again before nodding and said, "Okay, the treasury will pay for this." ”

After a pause, Emperor Xiyun still asked with some unease: "Jingjing, there are really a lot of these things in the Emin area?" ”

Quietly nodded, "A lot." According to the return of the people who sent it, it will be enough to dig for at least several years. ”

As soon as I heard that I could dig for several years, it could be seen that there were really a lot, and Emperor Xiyun was relieved.

"Imperial Father," said quietly, "this charcoal may not be unique to Emin, you can send someone to look for it elsewhere in Xiyun, maybe there's more." ”

Emperor Xiyun nodded: "I will." After a pause, "Cheng Yu Dai I went out on patrol, not in Beijing, I can't do this for him, just leave it to the prime minister, he is also a reliable one." ”

Quiet no opinion.

It's really easy to have no worries, and I used to be quiet and think about how to make money to run a free school, but now it's okay, I have come up with a method, and Emperor Xiyun has also called someone to do it according to this method, and then, the quiet life has returned to a very relaxed and comfortable life.

Time flies by like a white horse, fleeting.

A month has passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, Emperor Xiyun was in the early court, listening to the ministers' performance, but suddenly heard it

"Report! Urgent! Eight hundred miles expedited! A soldier rushed in.

As soon as he came in, the soldier knelt down on one knee, clenched his fists and said urgently: "Your Majesty, there is a plague in the Southern Mirage, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has also been infected!" ”

These words were like a thunderbolt that blew up the Great Hall.

The ministers were shocked, and they didn't know what to do.

Emperor Xiyun's old face turned pale in an instant, his two hands were clutching the armrests of the dragon chair, the green tendons on the back of his hands were protruding, and the corners of his lips trembled slightly, but he still tried to maintain his composure and maintain the majesty of the emperor.

The soldier continued: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has ordered the city to be sealed, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has asked the last general to convey to the emperor, so that the emperor does not have to take care of him, and slaughter the city when necessary!" ”

Emperor Xiyun instantly closed his eyes and forcibly suppressed the pain.
