Zhizhang Datang

Chapter 234

Lin Sen simply borrowed the Cheng family's blacksmith, and under his guidance, the blacksmith quickly made what he wanted.

Although there are new households with good blacksmith skills in the Lin family village, it is still very difficult to get some iron materials there. It must be more convenient to make these iron objects at the Cheng family.

Although Lin Sen was favored by Li Shimin, and the nobles in Chang'an City were obvious to all, his rank was there after all.

If you really use iron materials, I'm afraid it's not a small number. With his current weight, he ran to try to get more, and people probably wouldn't sell his face, and he might have to carry Cheng Yaojin in the end. they come.Instead of that, it's better to let them do it from the beginning.

And Lin Sen felt that this thing could only be popularized among nobles at the beginning, which is probably the reason. This kind of thing that consumes more iron materials is not affordable for ordinary people, and may not even be qualified to use it.

"Well, this thing is a charcoal-burning stove. Of course, you can burn wood, but it's not as durable as charcoal, and the heat is higher and warmer faster.

With these chimneys, there is no need to worry about the carbon ash making the house pitch black, and the possibility of charcoal poisoning is also reduced. Lin Sen pointed to the round iron stove and said to Cheng Yaojin.

Naturally, this thing came in the style of the charcoal-burning stove of later generations. There is an air inlet at the bottom and a small drawer-like iron plate, which can support the fallen carbon ash. The design is relatively better than that of the Tang Dynasty. The stove at this time must be more scientific and reasonable.

"This thing is easier to ignite, and it burns longer." Lin Sen simply started to demonstrate the process of making a fire while talking. He got the straw and put it in with the kindling, and then started to add small logs, and waited until When the fire is strong enough, just put coals in it.

This process didn't take too much time, and after a while, several people started warming up around the road.

In the rural areas of later generations, this kind of stove has always been very popular. Whenever Lin Sen goes back to visit his elders, he will help him burn it. Even after he is an adult, this is one of the two must-have funs for him when he returns to his hometown. It is to use the pressure well to press the water, so it is also easy to operate.

"I'll put on an iron kettle, and I'll have hot water to drink at any time." Lin Sen said with a smile.

"It's also very pleasant to talk at night around the stove. Of course, you can also put an iron or copper pot. You can eat hot pot directly here, which is another kind of refreshing enjoyment."

"There is another kind of stove that burns what I call briquettes, which are not pure coal, but a certain amount of clay is also added to it, and it can be pressed into shape.

The biggest advantage of this thing is that it improves the utilization rate of coal, because those carbon residues and carbon powder that are not easy to burn can be directly pressed into briquettes, so there will be no waste. "

As Lin Sen spoke, he took out a lit briquette from the stove here, and put it in the briquette stove.

"How about it, are these two kinds of stoves okay?" Lin Sen proudly showed Cheng Yaojin his success.

"The stove is pretty good, but I think the charcoal business is more promising. When these things are sold to thousands of households, everyone's demand for charcoal will definitely increase dramatically.

If both charcoal and toner can be used, then the original meager profit will become a small profit. Are we making small profits but selling more? Even if the freight is included, this thing is profitable, right? "Cheng Yaojin stared at the warm stoves and said thoughtfully.

"Uh, yes, Charcoal will definitely become more and more popular in the future. My father-in-law thinks long-term and has a unique vision." Lin Sen admired sincerely.

It's not that he forgot to sell coal, of course he knows that selling coal is a great business, and the profits contained in it are even more frightening, mainly because the thinking of later generations constrained him.

After all, the coal bosses of Jin Province in the later generations left a deep impression on people, and there were too many rumors about various black coal mines in the early years, which made him subconsciously feel that this kind of thing, which is almost a no-cost business, It's not something he can handle.

The interests involved are intricate, and it takes countless human lives to hold on to this piece of profit, so I unconsciously ignored this huge source of income.

But he forgot that the person sitting in front of him, as well as the group of Wu Xun he could call, are all huge monsters that can be covered. If they want to reach out to such a coveted business, it is not Something that is too difficult, especially when many people have not yet realized the huge benefits inherent in it.

"So don't be in a hurry to get these two kinds of stoves on the market, and wait until I ask my old brothers to take down the Weibei coalfield together." Cheng Yaojin warned.

"I understand." Lin Sen nodded knowingly.

"By the way, is it true that you said that too much firewood can cause all kinds of disasters?" Cheng Yaojin asked.

"Of course it's true, um, maybe look at several disasters in the past years, especially the diversion of the Yellow River, and see if the water in the lower reaches of the Yellow River is muddier than before. You can see that the land along the river A lot must have been taken away." Lin Sen said with some uncertainty.

The main reason is that the greening rate at this time is not too high compared to later generations. Even if there are ecological imbalances or soil erosion in some areas, this performance will not be too obvious. Otherwise, he would have directly regarded this as a big discovery. The idea was reported to Li Shimin.

"Well, as long as people can cut less firewood." Cheng Yaojin seemed to use this as an excuse to promote something.

"Oh, I almost forgot, according to the usual practice, this stove and the future coal business will all be counted as your share.

People who are about to start a family and start a business must have a foundation that can be passed on, so I can't wrong my daughter. "Cheng Yaojin patted Lin Sen's shoulder fiercely and said.

Although he has been showing that he doesn't like to see Lin Sen and his daughter, but in fact, love is still indispensable.

"Uh, I'm sure I can't treat Huaiyu badly. But I don't mind that the stove comes as usual, and I don't dare to take the part of the coal mine.

This thing requires too much manpower and material resources, and you have to rely on your face, and I can't help you much. It's a shame to take this money. "Lin Sen didn't agree to everything.

As he said, the name of the coal mine member is unfair. He is a principled person. Of course, he can try his best to fight for what belongs to him. This is not his own benefit, and he has no intention of accepting it for nothing. Although he knew that Cheng Yaojin had good intentions.

And this is because Cheng Yaojin has not seen how much profit the carboniferous mine contains. It is indeed a foundation that can be handed down from generation to generation. I am afraid that it will be mined on a large scale by then. What do they think of this person in their hands? changed.

Therefore, it is unnecessary to affect the original strong relationship. Lin Sen also believes that he will be able to find more and better industries in the future.

In addition, there is something difficult to explain. This coal mine must involve many lives. For such money, Lin Sen doesn't really want to get involved.

"Without the stoves you provided, the charcoal would never be on the table, and the sales may never increase, so it is only natural for you to get a copy.

If you're really sorry, just throw some money in.That's it. "Cheng Yaojin waved his hand to stop Lin Sen from talking.

"Okay." Lin Sen replied gratefully.

No matter what, Cheng Yaojin really didn't treat himself as an outsider, he really took care of him like half a son.

"I almost forgot. There is one more important thing. I received news that there will be a big battle in the next year. Do you want to try it?" Cheng Yaojin's rare emotions were a little complicated when he said this, There is both hope and worry.
