   Chapter 966 Coal Fields

   Even so, Quiet closed the study door.

   As soon as the study door was closed, Jing Jing walked towards Xiao Changyi, who was sitting there, pouring tea with a teapot.

   Poured two cups of tea.

   Seeing Jing Jing sitting opposite him, Xiao Changyi pushed a cup of tea in front of Jing Jing, making it clear that it was for Jing Jing.

  Quiet smiled at Xiao Changyi, and placed the charcoal in his hand on the tables between them.

   "Xianggong, I have thought of a way to make a lot of money."

   "What method?" Xiao Changyi asked while drinking tea slowly, with a particularly relaxed attitude.

An Jing also picked up the teacup, first took two sips, and then clenched his chin, motioning Xiao Changyi to look at the charcoal on the table: "That's it, it reminds me of the coal in my original world, which can be burned like charcoal. Called black gold, if we can find coal fields and dig coal to make briquettes and sell them, we will definitely make money.”

   "Coal...?"

"Uh..." An Jing thought for a while before explaining in her own words, "It's a black hard object buried in the ground. In my original world, the ancients used to call this graphite or coal. I'm not familiar enough with your world. , I don't know if anyone here has discovered this, anyway, so far, I haven't heard of this thing here."

   "Graphite? Charcoal?" Xiao Changyi pondered, looking at the charcoal on the table, and after a while, he said, "I've never heard of it."

  Quiet also pondered: "Maybe someone here has already discovered it, but it's just not called this name."

   Xiao Changyi nodded, indicating that it was indeed very possible.

Jingjing continued: "Whether anyone finds out, whether it's called this name or not, we can be sure that even if someone uses this thing, it is only used by very few people. If not, you must have heard of something like this. things of things."

"Um."

   "Since we don't know where it is, then we have to send someone to look for this thing. If we can really find the coal field, the matter of running a school will be settled."

"Um."

   "This thing also has an open air, which is what people can see. It is not necessary to dig up the soil to find it. If there is such an open air here, it is very likely to find coal."

"Um."

   "I won't tell the royal father about this first, and I will talk about it when I find something, lest the royal father suspect me."

   Even if Quiet didn't say anything, Xiao Changyi also planned to do so. Hearing Quiet say this, Xiao Changyi nodded, "En."

   Then, An Jing asked Qin San to call Meng Zhuqing.

  Quiet and Xiao Changyi usually directly instruct Meng Zhuqing to do something, and then Meng Zhuqing will send someone else to do it.

  An Jing did not directly mention the name of the coal, but simply described the shape of the coal and the coal field, and asked Meng Zhuqing to send someone to find it and see if there was any.

   But who knows, just as Jing Jing finished speaking, Meng Zhuqing said, "When my subordinate and my father passed by Ermin area, I seem to have seen what you said, Madam."

   "Really?!" Quiet, surprised and happy.

   Meng Zhuqing said truthfully: "I don't know if it is really what Madam you said, but it is very similar. My father also joked that it was a black stone mountain."

   "Mountain?" Quiet is puzzled, why is it called a mountain?

Meng Zhuqing said: "At that time, my subordinate and my father were just passing by. The piece was low in the middle and high around it, like a hill, but it was very large, with a lot of black pebbles exposed on the ground. At that time, the subordinate was curious, so he dug a little and found it. The ground is also all black."
