Nuclear Warlord

Chapter 213 Honeycomb Coal

The sea ban policy must be determined to cancel, and Emperor Ganwu naturally has no reason to object to the construction of docks and shipyards, so he nodded and agreed.

"Okay, then you can go ahead and do it."

The two things that Li Changfeng was thinking about had been completed, so he stopped lingering, shrank his neck and complained: "Father, your imperial study is too cold, my son will leave."

Emperor Qianwu laughed and scolded: "Stinky boy, there is a stove, why is it cold? Go back and rest."

Li Changfeng cupped his hands casually, and quickly left the palace.

Bingbing and Xiaotong already knew that Li Changfeng would return to Beijing, so they had already prepared hot water and a table of delicious food.

Li Changfeng ate a delicious meal and slept until the next day before waking up, which was refreshing.

After breakfast, Li Changfeng called Zhang Haihui and the heads of various industries under his command over to report on the business conditions during this period.

The business of Diandude, Xiaogong tea and refined salt is very stable, maintaining the previous sales volume, which can be said to be making money every day.

Affected by the cold weather, the business of Beer and BBQ City declined slightly, but the business of Hudi Lao Hot Pot was surprisingly good, and there were a large number of dignitaries waiting in line every day.

There were even wealthy businessmen and dignitaries from other places who traveled thousands of miles to come here to taste the food, which even made the accommodation industry in the entire capital boom.

Li Changfeng was surprised and realized that Hudilao's reception capacity is far from enough to meet market demand. After inquiring about the output of vegetable greenhouses, he decisively ordered the opening of a new store.

After arranging these, Li Changfeng talked about the most important thing today.

"Zhang Haihui, my prince plans to build a large shipyard and a large wharf. The initial survey work has already started, so go over and watch it yourself."

Zhang Haihui has been with Li Changfeng for so many years, and he is the most comfortable with it. He has strong handling ability and is familiar with the people in the scientific research institute. Li Changfeng intends to let him go there to lay out the preliminary work first.

After everything is in order, go back and call.

"It's Your Highness!"

Zhang Haihui readily agreed.

Leaving the living room, Li Changfeng went to the bedroom.

On the way, the servants were busy shoveling truckloads of coal, and the dark soot was floating all over the yard, Li Changfeng couldn't help frowning.

When I returned to the bedroom, I felt that the room was a bit cold, and there was still a pungent smell wafting around, and I was even a little dizzy after staying for a long time.

"The weather in the north is too cold, the south is better!" Li Changfeng couldn't help sighing.

The winter in Baishi City is not cold at all, and there is almost no need for a heater, and the heater needs to be turned on for a period of time during the coldest three or nine days.

Li Changfeng opened the window to breathe, and the cold wind hit his face, making his face ache.

at this time.

Li Changfeng felt blessed to the heart and patted his thigh.

"Oh, how did I forget this profitable business?"

Li Changfeng immediately put on a sheepskin cloak and wrapped it tightly, walked out of the bedroom and shouted to the family outside the door: "Prepare the car, my prince is going to the scientific research institute."

When he came to the scientific research institute, Liang Dafu was frowning at a pile of blueprints and thinking hard. There were also a pile of uniquely shaped parts on the ground, which Li Changfeng didn't even notice when he came to him.

Li Changfeng didn't bother, stared at the drawing for a while, and asked in surprise, "Are you developing a steam engine?"

"what!"

Liang Dafu was taken aback, and he let out a cry when he saw that it was Li Changfeng, so he felt relieved, patted his chest, and complained, "Your Highness, why didn't you make any noise when you came in?"

Li Changfeng curled his lips: "Why is there no sound? It's because you are too involved."

Liang Dafu didn't care about these minutiae, and said excitedly: "Now that cannons and muskets have started to be mass-produced, my subordinates finally have enough time to study steam engines. This is really a magical idea. If it succeeds, it will change the whole world!"

Li Changfeng smiled slightly.

Of course, the steam engine can change the whole world. This is a great invention that started the first industrial revolution and an important milestone in the progress of human civilization.

He patted Liang Dafu on the shoulder and encouraged him: "It's good to know, work harder and get the steam engine out quickly."

Liang Dafu nodded, stared at Li Changfeng and said seriously: "Your Highness, sometimes I really suspect that you are a real god descended into the world, otherwise how could you come up with such an unbelievable existence of a steam engine, and even provide us with the basic design Drawings of ideas!"

"Haha, then you can just treat me as a real god descended into the world." Li Changfeng joked.

Liang Dafu was speechless for a moment.

Li Changfeng smiled and said the purpose of coming to the research institute this time.

"Dafu, I have a good idea for efficient use of coal. You can find time to get it into mass production as soon as possible, and it won't take long."

"What about low-efficiency utilization? Anyway, we don't lack coal, and I still need to study steam engines." Liang Dafu said reluctantly.

Liang Dafu is the leader and pillar of the scientific research institute. Li Changfeng couldn't bear to lose his temper with him, so he could only patiently explain it carefully.

"Dafu, don't underestimate my idea..."

Next, Li Changfeng began to explain in detail the advantages and manufacturing methods of honeycomb coal, and Liang Dafu's eyes gradually brightened.

"Okay, this is indeed a good thing that benefits the country and the people, and the principle is simple and easy to manufacture. My subordinates will arrange people to research and manufacture it immediately, and it is estimated that it will be put into mass production in a few days!"

"The prince is waiting for your good news."

The purpose of this trip was achieved, and Li Changfeng left the research institute.

Originally planned to go to the Artillery Camp and the Artillery Camp, but after going out, it snowed heavily, so Li Changfeng went back home directly.

three days later.

The first batch of briquettes was 30 yuan and delivered to Li Changfeng's mansion.

It also came with a stove for briquettes.

Li Changfeng tested the effect of briquettes on the spot, and he was very satisfied with the results. Then he sent someone to bring a lot of ingredients, two pieces of briquettes and a stove to the palace.

He made briquettes not just for making money.

Seeing Li Changfeng, Emperor Qianwu was a little surprised.

"Stinky boy, why are you here?"

He knew his son too well, he would never enter the palace for nothing, and he liked to live a free life outside.

Li Changfeng smiled and said: "Why, why can't you come and see Father?"

"Did the sun come out from the west? Why didn't I realize that you have such great filial piety before?" Emperor Ganwu said exaggeratedly.

Gao Dali also looked at Li Changfeng curiously, not knowing what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd.

Li Changfeng chuckled and said, "Father, how long has it been since we had dinner together? It's snowing heavily today, which is just right for hot pot. My son brought the stove and the dishes."

Emperor Ganwu nodded and said with emotion: "It's true that our father and son haven't eaten together for a long time. It's rare that you are so filial, so let's have a hot pot together today."
