Chapter 982 Plague

  Quiet did not answer, but asked someone to bring a stove over, put a piece of briquettes in it, and then add some firewood to ignite the briquettes.

   Seeing that the briquettes were really burning like charcoal, Emperor Xiyun's eyes lit up immediately, "What the **** is this, how can it be burned?"

Quietly said: "This is an underground thing, I don't know what it is, I only know that I accidentally let it hit a fire and found it could burn, and Meng Zhuqing and General Meng seemed to have seen this in Ermin. Afterwards, Meng Zhuqing sent people to investigate and found that there are a lot of things in Ermin. If we dig this thing and make it into this shape and sell it, whether it is sold in Xiyun or sold to neighboring countries, we should be able to make a lot of money. ."

   "Your Highness, you said, let me think of a way to run a school. Now that I think about it, I have found everything. Now it's up to you to agree."

   "By the way, compared to charcoal, Chang Yi joked with me yesterday, calling this charcoal, I feel pretty good, what do you think, royal father?"

   There is no word for coal here. She doesn’t want to coin a new word, it’s better to call it coal.

   When Emperor Xiyun heard that it was Xiao Changyi's name, he immediately smiled and nodded and said, "Shi Tan is a good name, so let's call it Tan Tan."

   After a pause, Emperor Xiyun pondered: "This charcoal is underground and needs to be dug. If you want to make a lot of it, you will need a lot of people..."

  Quietly said: "If the royal father thinks that this method of earning money is successful, then just like making white paper, the money will be paid from the treasury, and all the money earned will go into the treasury."

  Emperor Xiyun looked at the burning coal again before nodding and said, "Okay, the treasury will pay for this."

   After a pause, Emperor Xiyun asked a little worriedly: "Quietly, is there really a lot of these things in the Ermin area?"

   nodded quietly and said, "A lot. According to the report of the people who sent it, at least enough to dig for several years."

   It can be seen that it can be dug for several years, and it can be seen that there are really many, and Emperor Xiyun is relieved.

   "Your Highness," said quietly and again, "this coal is not necessarily only found in Ermin, you can send someone to look for it in other places in Xiyun, maybe there is."

  Emperor Xiyun nodded: "I will." After a pause, "Chengyu went on a tour on my behalf and is not in Beijing. This matter can't be handled by him, so let the Prime Minister handle it, he is also reliable."

  Quiet is fine.

  …

Wu Worry is really relaxed. Before Quiet, I had to think about how to make money to run a free school. Now, I have come up with a method. Emperor Xiyun also asked people to do it according to this method. Then, quiet life returned to a special place. Relaxed and comfortable.

   Time flies by like a white horse.

   One month has passed in the blink of an eye.

  On this day, Emperor Xiyun was going to the morning court, listening to the ministers playing the matter, but suddenly heard—

   "Report! Urgent report! 800 miles urgent!" A soldier rushed in.

As soon as    came in, the soldier knelt down on one knee and clasped his fists and said urgently, "Report to the Emperor, there is a plague in Nanmicheng, and His Royal Highness has also contracted it!"

   These words were like a thunderbolt, blowing up the conference hall.

  The ministers were shocked and didn't know what to do.

  Emperor Xiyun's old face was instantly pale, his two hands were firmly grasping the armrest of the dragon chair, the back of his hands protruded with blue veins, and the corners of his lips trembled slightly, but he still tried his best to keep his composure and maintain the majesty of the emperor.

  The soldier continued: "His Royal Highness has ordered the closure of the city. His Royal Highness asked the last commander to convey to the emperor, so that the emperor does not need to take care of him, when necessary... massacre the city!"

  Emperor Xiyun closed his eyes instantly and suppressed the pain.
