Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 62, the use of briquettes

A few days later
"Mr. Liu, the sun is already rising, you should get up."

Qian Youcai came to the door of Liu Jin's room, seeing that Liu Jin hadn't gotten up yet, he also said helplessly.

The ancients generally went to bed very early and woke up very early. Liu Jin traveled through later generations, and still retains the living habits of later generations. He would never get up before seven or eight o'clock.

What's more, the weather is cold now, and the cold wind is howling outside. Liu Jin is habitually lying in bed. If there is nothing to do, Liu Jin can sleep until noon.

Regarding this point, Qian Youcai shook his head more than once or twice. In his opinion, Liu Jin is good at everything, very talented, and humble, whether it is good for himself or for the villagers in Xishan Village , has always been pleasant, very polite, everyone likes him very much.

But this problem of sleeping late can never be changed, which makes Qian Youcai, who is eager to bring honeycomb coal to the market as soon as possible, shakes his head.

"Okay~ okay, I'll get up right away."

Liu Jin's lazy voice came from the room.

Qian Youcai didn't wait for long. A few minutes later, Liu Jin had already put on his clothes and walked out. When the cold wind blew, Liu Jin couldn't help shrinking his body and said, "Old Qian, can you Don't wake people up early in the morning, in this weather, if you don't sleep a few more times, it's a waste of this rare good weather."

"My Mr. Liu, it's already Chen's time, and you haven't married a wife. What are you doing in bed? If you get up early and go to bed early, you'll be in good health."

Qian Youcai looked at Liu Jin and shook his head again.

"I also know that going to bed early and getting up early is good for your health, but I can't change it."

"Don't talk about this, why did you wake me up early, what's the matter?"

Liu Jin yawned, as if he didn't get enough sleep.

"The first batch of briquettes we made have been dried, and you should teach me how to use this briquette now."

"I have learned it here, so that people can sell it in the capital as soon as possible. This white money is spent every day like water. You don't know this feeling."

Qian Youcai said while taking Liu Jin to the briquette production workshop.

Qian Youcai has been pondering for a long time on how to use the honeycomb coal, but it still feels wrong, especially when it is combined with the honeycomb coal stove, it feels wrong no matter how to use it.

"This is easy~ I thought you should be able to figure it out yourself."

Liu Jin was taken aback for a moment, but he didn't expect this to happen.

Soon, the two came to the briquette production workshop. Many of Qian Youcai's staff were already waiting, and at the same time, some people were constantly thinking about how to use the briquette.

"Mr. Liu is here, you all have to watch carefully and study carefully, do you hear me?"

Qian Youcai looked at these fellows under him, and said sharply.

When all the guys heard this, they cheered up one by one and said, "I heard it~"

Liu Jin looked at the crowd, took two briquette stoves and began to teach.

"Let's take a look, there are two kinds of briquette stoves. We call this kind of single-core coal stove, which means that only one briquette can be put in at a time."

"This kind of stove that can put three briquettes at the same time is called a three-core coal stove. Except for the number of briquettes loaded at one time, the other structures of these two coal stoves are the same."

"This single-core coal stove can only hold a stack of briquettes, so the heat it generates is limited when it burns, and the stove is not big, so it is generally more suitable for heating water and heating."

"This three-core coal stove can use three stacks of briquettes at the same time. The heat generated is high, and the stove is also large. It can be used for cooking, boiling water, heating, etc."

Liu Jin took two briquette stoves and began to explain to these guys.

"So when we promote honeycomb coal, we need to be more flexible, carefully ask customers' needs, and then recommend suitable coal stoves."

"There is a small opening under the coal stove. This opening can be closed and opened. When we need to use fire, we open this small opening, and when we don't need fire, we cover it. Coal can be saved."

"The use of this briquette, when you first start using it, you need to burn a piece of briquette red, then put this piece of briquette at the bottom of the coal stove, and then add other briquettes to the top."

Liu Jin started to operate while talking. These folks with money and wealth have already prepared all the tools in order to study how to use briquettes, and there is charcoal that has already been burned.

Liu Jin put a few pieces of honeycomb coal into the charcoal and slowly burned it red, then put the honeycomb coal at the bottom of the coal stove, and then continuously added honeycomb coal on top.

"If we feel that the fire is burning too slowly or not big enough, we can also use a fan to continuously fan the air at this opening, so that it can speed up its burning and make it burn completely quickly."

Following Liu Jin's operation, the briquettes in the coal stove quickly burned red and began to emit billowing heat, making the eyes of all the staff around them brighten.

"So that's how it is. It's so simple. Fortunately, we haven't figured it out after thinking about it for a long time."

Someone said suddenly.

"I have never understood the function of this small hole. It turns out that it is similar to the function of a blower. They can be used to blow air and increase firepower."

"Tsk tsk, this one is full of firepower, scorching heat, and the size is just right, just about the size of a pot. It can be used for cooking and boiling water. It's really convenient."

"No, if we really use this, it will be much more convenient for us to cook and boil water in the future."

All the guys talked to each other, and each of them quickly realized the benefits of this briquette stove. It is very convenient to use. The key is that it is durable enough and has high heat, which is much better than burning wood.

"When the briquettes are used up, that is, the coal in it is burned, I can take out the burnt briquettes at the bottom, and put them back layer by layer, and add new briquettes to the top."

"Of course, I'm just demonstrating here. This piece of briquette can't be burned out so easily. Only when its color turns white will it be really burnt out."

"In addition, if we don't need to use it, we can cover this small opening. After covering this small opening, the honeycomb inside will burn very slowly, very slowly, and there will be no waste of honeycomb."

Liu Jin looked at everyone, smiled and continued to demonstrate in person.

As Liu Jin covered the small opening of the briquette stove, the red-burning coal stove quickly and slowly turned off, and only a very small amount of briquette at the bottom was still burning very slowly.

People of later generations must know that this is because of insufficient oxygen, so they cannot burn. As for the ancient people, they only need to tell them to do this. As for the reason, there is no need to explain it.

"If we need to use it, we will open the lid of the small opening and fan the air from here, and it will be able to burn blazingly again soon."
