"What my uncle said is that my father did something wrong this time, but my uncle is angry, my father will definitely realize his mistake this time, and it won't be long before my uncle is reinstated."

With these two comforting words from his nephew, the look on Zhang Xun's face looked much better.

Only then did he think of something again, and asked the prince.

"By the way, what has that kid been doing lately?"

The kid Zhang Xun said was naturally Yuan Yao.

These days, he has been staying in his own mansion, and he knows very little about Yuan Yao.

Finally, a guest came to visit, so naturally I wanted to find out what Yuan Yao was doing recently.

Yuan Jing is quite familiar with what Yuan Yao has done recently.

First, he always regarded Yuan Yao as his competitor.

Second, what Yuan Yao has done recently is a little strange, which has aroused his interest.

Seeing Zhang Xun asking, Yuan Jing did not hesitate and talked to him.

"That kid has been a little strange recently, he asked his father for 30,000 loads of grain, and then built a lot of wooden huts in the Taoist temple outside the city, and is giving porridge there to relieve the displaced people."

Originally, Zhang Xun didn't care about Yuan Yao's dynamics, and when he asked Yuan Jing at this time, it was just a whim.

But suddenly hearing Yuan Jing say this, it aroused his interest.

Zhang Xun frowned and looked at Yuan Jing in surprise.

"What do you say? That kid took the food given by His Majesty and gave soup soup relief in the Taoist temple to save the displaced people? ”

"Yes, not only that, that guy also recruited more than 10,000 people among the homeless, and then took these people to dig stones in the mountains of Shangcai County!"

"Digging stones?!"

Listening to Yuan Jing's words, Zhang Xun's brows furrowed even deeper.

It seems that there is quite a puzzle about this matter.

Yuan Jing also frowned, and then explained.

"I've heard that it's a black stone, and it seems to be burned as fuel, similar to charcoal."

As soon as he heard Yuan Jing's words, Zhang Xun's brows immediately softened a little.

"I know that there are blacksmiths in the army, and they often have to build weapons, and they will go up to the mountains to dig a black stone called charcoal, which can be used as fuel, and the temperature of the flame is enhanced for forging."

"What? Does that kid also want to learn how to build weapons from a blacksmith? ”

After all, Zhang Xun is a general, and he still has some knowledge, and he also knows a little about coal.

But even if he knew, he couldn't imagine what Yuan Yao wanted to do when he went up the mountain to dig coal.

Listening to his uncle's simple description, it made Yuan Jing's brows furrow even deeper.

"Uncle, I heard that kid doesn't seem to want to forge weapons, but wants to sell these charcoal as charcoal!"

"What?!"

"Hahaha, what did you say? He wants to sell this charcoal as charcoal? I heard you right! ”

Yuan Jing didn't know why his uncle was laughing.

Just seeing his uncle laughing, he laughed too.

"I heard that yes, but I don't know exactly what I want to do."

"How good I think he is, it's just an idiot!"

"Ah Jing, do you know why the coal has been discovered by the people a long time ago, but the people have not used it as fuel, but would rather use firewood than those coal?"

Yuan Jing shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.

Zhang Xun then explained to him.

"That's because although these coals can be burned and can be used as fuel, when they are burned, they produce a lot of smoke and the smell is very choking, compared to firewood, which is more acceptable to the people."

"Moreover, there is firewood everywhere in and outside the village, and if you want to use it, you can just pick it up."

"And that charcoal is only found in the mines in the mountains, and it is not easy to mine, so why should the people use it."

"This Yuan Yao, it is estimated that he found this kind of stone on the mountain that can be burned, so he wanted to show it in front of His Majesty, and when he moved these stones down the mountain, the people did not buy his charcoal at all, but preferred to use firewood, I will see how he ends up then!"

"Hahaha, it's so interesting, I can't wait to see that kid eat turtles now!"

Zhang Xun is in a good mood at the moment.

Thinking of the charcoal that Yuan Yao had worked so hard to dig out when he was lucky, no one wanted it at all, and his black-faced appearance, Zhang Xun was quite proud, and he was even able to take advantage of this incident to make a big play.

When the time comes, Yuan Yao will be counted in the court, and the fame that Yuan Yao has just gathered will be completely dispersed.

Originally, Zhang Xun wanted to use some small means to target Yuan Yao behind his back, but now that he heard his nephew say this, there was no need to spend some careful thoughts.

Just wait to see the good show.

When Zhang Xun and Yuan Jing ridiculed Yuan Yao, Yuan Yao had already made all the honeycomb coal, and used a large plate truck to transport the honeycomb coal to this Shouchun City.

"Lord, are these honeycomb coals?"

Yan Xiang has been in charge of transporting grain these days, but he has not directly participated in Yuan Yao's honeycomb coal production, but he also went to the porridge shed over there to help, so he learned from Tai Shici and others what Yuan Yao was doing.

Although Yan Xiang was also a little puzzled about this matter, since it was something that his own lord wanted to do, he still had a supportive mentality, and he didn't even raise any objections to Yuan Yao.

"Well, the first batch has been prepared, and it can be sold in Shouchun City today."

Yuan Yao ordered people to push carts and transport the first batch of honeycomb coal to the roadside in Shouchun City, and the number of displaced people on both sides of the road was obviously much less.

In this Shouchun City, because of Yuan Yao's soup alms, most of the people went to Bagong Mountain, and there were very few people left in the city.

And this just gave Yuan Yao a buyer, after all, those homeless people couldn't eat, and they couldn't be expected to buy honeycomb coal.

"Ah San, hurry up and unload all these honeycomb coals."

Yuan Yao commanded one of the soldiers and asked him to lead people to unload the honeycomb coal, and at this time, because of the actions of Yuan Yao and his party, coupled with the unique shape of these honeycomb coals, and the black appearance, it really attracted the attention of many people for a while.

"What's this?"

"What's that? How is it pitch black? ”

Seeing that many people had already come up to ask questions, Yuan Yao didn't have time to say more to Yan Xiang, so he immediately stepped forward to talk to these customers.

"Ladies and gentlemen, it's better to come early than to come by coincidence, today coincides with our Bagongshan Coal Yard selling honeycomb coal, let's take a look, the new goods are on the market, free to receive! Limited to five per person! ”
