Chapter 214 Help me look after that place

  Feng Tubie didn't know whether it was sadness or joy in his heart, he liked Guan Ji's cold appearance, but also liked her being close to him...

well! It's really hard to tell what it feels like.

   "In winter, there are also bugs? Wait for the younger brother to see."

   Li Yi saw that Feng Yong was about to speak to him, but he never thought that he was interrupted by a bug, and wished he could pull out that nasty bug and crush it on the spot.

   "Forget it, this house is as warm as spring, and it's not surprising that there is a bug."

  The corners of Feng Yong's mouth twitched, he rejected Li Yi's kindness, pondered for a moment, and said, "Wenxuan's visit to Hanzhong this time can be regarded as a contribution, do you have any thoughts on Mushou's side?"

  Li Yi is a thoughtful person, when Feng Yong asked this question, he thought of Nanxiang County.

   "Brother, do you want my younger brother to be the magistrate of Nanxiang County?"

Feng Yong nodded and said: "The prime minister originally wanted me to serve as the county magistrate, but I thought that within two years, the prime minister would definitely march south. I still have to go to the south and middle of the country, so I can't be Tied up in Hanzhong."

   "But Nanxiang County is a place where there are treasures underground. I really don't feel at ease if I don't let one of my own people there."

   Otherwise, why would Feng Tubie want to flirt with that ten-year-old Zhang Xingyi?

   Isn't it just to make a good impression on the Zhang family?

  Nanxiang is the food town of the Marquis of Xixiang. Some things, if the Zhang family is willing to speak up, it will be much easier to handle.

  Feng Yong picked up the bowl on the table and took a sip. It is warm to burn a fire in this winter, but the body is easy to lose water, so drink water frequently.

   "Nowadays Hanzhong is desolate, and there are not many people vying for this position. If Wenxuan is willing to be the county magistrate, it is easy to get it because of his official merits."

   "Is there a baby underground?"

   Not only Li Yi, but also Zhao Guang and others were attracted by Feng Yong's statement.

   These days, the treasures buried in the ground are either gold, silver or iron ore, but no matter what kind, as long as you sit on the county magistrate position, it is a place where you can get merit even if you lie down!

   "How does brother know that there is a baby there? What kind of baby is it?"

   Li Yi's heart skipped a beat.

   "Is it gold or silver, or iron ore?"

  Zhao Guang couldn't wait to ask, just like Li Yi was jealous of him just now, but now it's the other way around, he also feels a little jealous of Li Yi.

   "No, it's the Nirvana Stone. When I came out of the teacher's door, I heard people in the teacher's door say that there is a Nirvana stone underground in Nanxiang, and it is very easy to mine."

  Don’t ask me how I know there are coal mines in Nanxiang. Not only do I know, I also know that there is a "Golden Triangle" in Hanzhong. There are not only rich iron ore, but also gold mines, but it is not suitable for mining at present.

  Is it easy for me to learn CAD?

   "What is Nirvana? Why have I never heard of it?"

   Zhao Guang asked suspiciously.

   "Brother is talking about coal? My younger brother once heard that there is a kind of black stone in the ground, which is not only burnable, but also extremely flame-resistant. I heard that when the world was not in chaos, the general prisoner of the great man also used this material to smelt iron."

  Li Yi is not as ignorant as Zhao Guang, "The name of Nirvana Stone comes from the "Shan Hai Jing", but the world sees that it is as hard as stone and can burn fire like charcoal, so it is often called coal."

   There are already records of using coal to smelt iron in the Han Dynasty. It is not unusual for Li Yi to know about coal.

   "It turned out to be coal. This thing is more flame-resistant, but it is really difficult to use. It is far less convenient than firewood. What kind of treasure?"

   Zhao Guang was disappointed when he heard this.

  Feng Yong glanced at Zhao Guang contemptuously, "That livestock manure, before I used them for farming, who knew that this thing could make more grain in the field?"

   "Brother, does the charcoal have other magical uses?"

  Wang Xun interjected.

   What were the two most important weight standards when modern industry emerged?

  One is coal and the other is iron.

How to use coal to smelt iron Feng Yong definitely can't. According to his poor physics knowledge, he only knows that it is possible to use coal to smelt iron, but it needs to go through a series of steps, otherwise the smelted iron will have too many impurities and the iron will be destroyed. The quality will not pass.

   Then his slightly richer historical knowledge told him that coal had already been used to smelt iron in the Western Han Dynasty.

  So what he has to do is to find coal mines that are easy to dig, and then organize people to dig out the black treasure.

   Using charcoal to smelt iron and coal to smelt iron, can the output be at the same level?

   As for how to smelt iron, isn't that the job of Jiang Zuojian and Shaofu?

  I have to do everything, what does it look like? Don't you know I'm only sixteen?

   "As far as I know, using coal to smelt iron is not bad. It's just because there is not much coal and it is often buried underground. How can it be so easy to find it? If my brother can find the place where the coal is buried..."

   After all, Li Yi is a son of an aristocratic family, and his knowledge is much better than that of a half-way upstart like Zhao Guang, let alone a barbarian like Wang Xun who turned to Han people halfway.

  I saw him meditate and said, "I can't say, it's really an achievement."

  Feng Yong smiled, "The smelting of iron with coal is not something I should worry about. I want this coal for other purposes."

   "What's the use?"

   "You don't understand even if I say it, but you will know it when I make it. You just need to know that this is a treasure."

  Feng Yong glanced at Zhao Guang and didn't bother to explain to him.

   "How? Wenxuan, do you want to consider becoming the magistrate of Nanxiang County?"

  Li Yi showed a struggling look on his face. He believed what his brother said, and if he said that it was easy to get official reputation and merit, then he would definitely not be lying to him.

  After all, my brother has done so many things before, and now my brother's signboard is almost made of gold, which is the most solid.

   It's just that he cares more about what his elder brother said. In two years, the prime minister will go to Ping Nanzhong. The elder brother said that he must go to Nanzhong. How can he not follow?

   But as the county magistrate, he can only stay in Hanzhong, how can he leave easily?

"The little brother dare not lie to the elder brother. If the elder brother really lets the younger brother take the position of the county magistrate, then the younger brother must have nothing to say. After all, this is a good thing that many people can't ask for. It's only the younger brother who follows the elder brother so much." Over time, I learned a lot.”

  Li Yi gritted his teeth and said, "So I always feel that I don't have enough knowledge, and I still want to spend more time with my brother. I don't know if it will work? If my brother really wants someone he trusts to guard that place, my brother has a candidate."

  Feng Tubie didn't expect that he would have such a great influence on Li Yi, and he would rather lie down and get good things for the official's voice than to hang around with him.

  But Feng Yong just wants someone he trusts to watch over that place for him, and it's not necessarily Li Yi.

  In fact, in his heart, Zhao Guang is the most suitable candidate, but Zhao Erha, alas, don't mention it.

  Wang Xun does have this ability, but Wang Ping has only recently been promoted to an official position. I am afraid that no one knows Wang Xun with the old monster Zhuge.

  Feng Tubie has not yet reached the level of not taking the county magistrate as a cadre, anyway, this official is at least a hundred miles away!

   "Oh, who is it?"

   "Clan brother Li Qiu."
