Zhizhang Datang

Chapter 233
At this moment, in a certain aristocratic family compound, the discussion about Lin Sen is still going on, it is still those seven little old men, and Lin Sen is probably the unlucky gourd baby?
"I heard that the boy allowed the young lady of the Cheng family to be his wife? Does that mean he needs to make contributions?" Someone from the Cui family spoke first.

The Cui family, who vaguely had the posture of being the leader of the Five Surnames and Seven Wangs, naturally became the vanguard when dealing with Lin Sen.

However, in this investigation of various ministries, relatively speaking, the Cui family lost the most. Who made them have the greatest influence on the court.

And when they resisted Li Shimin and went deep into various places, their resistance was also the most intense, and naturally the most strength was consumed in this wave of see-saw.

However, since they can be almost recognized as the bosses of the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes, their potential power should not be underestimated.

"Then give this kid a chance. If you want to make achievements, naturally going to the battlefield is the fastest way." Another said.

"It's just that swords and guns have no eyes on the battlefield, and no one can guarantee that I will be able to come back properly." The one here said with a reserved smile.

"Especially when there are people behind him who don't agree with him, there are always those guys who like to stab people in the back, tsk tsk." Another pretending sighed.

But isn't this "stabbing in the back" referring to yourselves? It seems that you really don't know what it means to blush.

"It's just a pity that the young lady of the Cheng family became a widow at such a young age." There was another old man who was not a cultivator and said regretfully.

"Then give that kid a chance to be rewarded. Even if he doesn't come back, there will be no less honor. We still have to be beautiful as adults. Let's try our best to win the title of village lord for the young lady of the Cheng family."

This is not only the idea of ​​killing Lin Sen, but also the intention of ruining Cheng Huaiyu's life and making her a widow for the rest of her life.

After a group of people exchanged glances with each other, the matter is considered to be settled. It is enough for each family to mobilize their own strength to push this matter into shape. Of course, they themselves will not appear in the whole matter.

Even if everyone speculates that they did it, there is absolutely no evidence that they are involved in any way.

Of course, more often than not, people like Lin Sen who are being suppressed die in ignorance, and get tricked without knowing why, but they don't even know who is behind it.

If Lin Sen heard what they were talking about, he probably wished that a thunder would come down from the sky and kill these old bastards.

But Lin Sen obviously couldn't hear it. He was squatting at the gate of Chang'an City, staring thoughtfully at the flow of people coming and going.

Of course he didn't come to see those big girls and little daughter-in-laws, and there is no scenery to see in winter, besides, he has Cheng Huaiyu, a beautiful girl who is enough to satisfy all the fantasies of a loyal fan, and he doesn't like these vulgar fans. interest.

What he was really paying attention to was his original business, and wanted to see how many woodcutters were entering and leaving Chang'an City.

Looking at it now, there are not a few people who come to Chang'an City to sell firewood and charcoal. It can be said that you will see one in a while, and then think of the Longshouyuan that has been chopped down a bit sparsely, and there is smoke everywhere in Chang'an City. Obviously, the wood consumed by Chang'an City every day is really a huge number.

Although the environmental fault tolerance rate at this time is quite high, such logging methods may not see any bad consequences in the past few years, but thinking about the increasingly extreme environment of Chang'an City, it has actually begun to show.

Compared with Zhongnan Mountain not far away, it is not an exaggeration to say that the city of Chang'an is cold in winter and hot in summer, which already has the meaning of urban heat island effect.

And after all the wood in Longshouyuan was cut down, the cold wind in winter blows into Chang'an City unhindered. I'm afraid this situation will be more obvious.

Lin Sen even had reason to suspect that the severe drought in the second year of Zhenguan might be inextricably linked to this. After all, forests have a strong water-locking effect and water storage capacity, but once they are destroyed Yes, it is definitely not that easy for the forest to grow back.

Especially in the drought season, without such a link, nature's regulating ability will not be able to exert its effect, and the spread of disasters will naturally be inevitable.

I don't know if I should remind Li Shimin of this aspect?But it is too unrealistic to explain environmental protection and sustainable development to them. It is also a bit whimsical to expect people at this time to understand something that future generations will not be able to do well.

So it's better to start with a more practical alternative. The residents of Chang'an City rely so heavily on wood, so the market prospects for substitutes will definitely be great. Challenges can often turn into good opportunities.

After standing in the cold wind and figuring things out, Lin Sen quickly stomped his feet, took a sip of shochu to warm up his body, and then ran to Cheng's house.

As long as he settled down in Chang'an City now, he would basically choose to stay with the Cheng family, and only when Cheng Yaojin couldn't bear to see him speak out, he would go to the Qin family to live temporarily.

Now that he has come up with a good idea, which can provide everyone with more money in winter, and by the way, it can also be regarded as satisfying his desire to let the mountains and forests around Chang'an City rest and recuperate. Lin Sen will definitely go to his father-in-law immediately. Let's discuss it.

"Are you sure there is a way to use that dark thing? It won't kill people?" Although Cheng Yaojin was somewhat immune to his son-in-law's many whimsical ideas, after hearing Lin Sen's thoughts suddenly, he still Can't help but ask with some surprise.

The use of coal by Chinese people actually started a long time ago. As early as the Western Han Dynasty, it was recorded that coal was used to smelt iron. By the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, this thing had been used as household fuel. one of the main fuels.

In the Tang Dynasty, it is not so rare to sell coal in the market here in Chang'an City, because not far from Chang'an, there is the Weibei Coalfield, which is the open-pit coal mine of the later Tongchuan Coal Mine, which can be mined relatively easily. coal.

The reason why it is not so popular is that it is mostly used by civilians or servants of wealthy families. The main reason is that this coal has several major shortcomings that cannot be solved for the time being.

The first thing to suffer is of course carbon poisoning. Every year in Chang’an City, there are quite a few people who die from burning carbon. Of course, this problem is inevitable with ordinary charcoal, but people have used charcoal for a long time, and there is a possibility of mistakes. Still much smaller.

If the coal is not burned well, it will always become black smoke. Ordinary people use less for heating. No one wants to become a Kunlun slave when they go out the next day. The clothes and bedding at home will inevitably suffer. Who can bear this.On the contrary, some people use this feature to make ink, and the effect is very good.

The other one is that charcoal can’t be sold at a high price, and only poorer people use it. However, there is always a freight charge for transporting it from Tongchuan, which is still affiliated to Yongzhou at this time, and there is also a cost for mining, so it is naturally more cost-effective to sell. It's bad, the profit is low, and naturally fewer people are willing to sell this.

In comparison, the firewood is collected from places that are very close. Those who live outside the city can chop it by themselves, and it can be delivered on the same day, or even a few round trips. The cost is low and the supply is low. It is big and will not make the home dirty, so it is naturally more recognized by everyone.

And Lin Sen mainly wanted to change these defects of coal, first let this thing become a must-have item in the homes of many rich people in Chang'an City.

　Once again, I was busy working until very late, busy debugging the three servers in the unit, which will be used for an event on the weekend, and the leader squatted next to him to watch the adjustments before he was allowed to leave.Now my mind has been confused, and I feel that the whole thing has been hollowed out...
