Chapter 482
"Well, I have to ask Uncle Qi about this when I go back to see what the old man thinks. I'm giving you a letter."

"Just take it to heart."

"Such a good thing, I will definitely take it to heart."

In the evening, Fu Xinci returned home, and after Qi Gehe came back, she told Qi He verbatim what Xiang Tong and Lan Tianyao had discussed with her.

Qi He was also very surprised when he heard that there was such a thing as coal.

"There is such a good thing in the world?"

"Of course I have." Fu Xinci told Qi He some more about the benefits of coal, and then asked him to go to Uncle Qi, and let him and Uncle Qi learn what he wanted to say to Uncle Qi.

Uncle Qi has never disappointed Fu Xinci before. When he asked Qi He to bring it back, he said, "Bring that thing over and show me when the time comes. I'm looking for General Liu."

Fu Xinci immediately agreed, and then wrote a note, asking Xiaobai to send it to Dragon City to his friends.

Xiaobai: Why do you have to go out for nothing in such a cold weather?

"You are the original fur coat, don't let me, a human being, laugh at you."

"Squeak." He smiled cheaply.

Fu Xinci: "You look for a chipper."

"Zhi Zhi Zhi." Ben Bai won't come back today.

After Xiaobai finished speaking, he rushed out, and escaped before the humans went berserk.

After finally breaking out of the human attack range, Xiaobai finally relaxed, twisted his fat waist, and rushed towards the thick snow.

"Squeak, squeak." Yo-ho, yo-ho.

Fu Xinci would be dumbfounded if she was here, Xiaobai's skiing skills are pretty good, the kind with a run-up.

The big fluffy tail, flicking and flicking, slid quite fast, and disappeared into the snow-covered mountains and forests in a short while.

When Xiang Tong personally escorted a carriage of coal to the guard station closest to them, he told them that Miss Fu had asked them to come, and they were immediately let go.

When they entered the border of Daming, the coachman who was driving the carriage whispered to Xiang Tong who was riding the horse: "I didn't expect Fu Xiaoniu's name to be so useful in Daming's guard."

"It's even better in our Dragon City."

"That is, anyone who dares not to give Fu Xiaoniu face will be beaten by the gang."

"I can't take care of myself without being beaten up. I have to go up and get beaten up myself."

"Isn't it?"

While talking, the two looked curiously at the desolate wilderness beside the road.

"I didn't expect Liaodong in this era to be so desolate."

In order to prevent the tricky north wind from blowing through, Xiang Tong tightened the big leather jacket on his body, then pushed the somewhat obtrusive leather hat and replied: "This is the border, how prosperous do you want to be in winter?"

"Why did we walk a few miles and let us see a figure."

The driver pointed at the desolate official road, raised his whip again, and complained to Xiang Tong: "Mayor Xiang, we have enough to eat and drink, so what are we doing in winter?"

"Just let's go out to play in the mountains and rivers." Xiang Tong is very optimistic.

"I'm still traveling in the mountains and rivers. The little north wind is whizzing like a knife. The mountains are also bald, and the river is frozen. It's really not worth seeing."

Xiang Tong also knew that the journey was uncomfortable, so he glanced at him before continuing to say, "Isn't this the first time we sell coal, these ancient people don't know the benefits of burning coal."

"Then we can wait until the beginning of spring next year, we don't wait for the rice to cook."

"You are stupid. After winter, there will be fewer people buying coal."

"That…."

"Repay that? One year later, one year's money will be delayed. Do you know how much money is wasted in one year?"

"do not know."

Xiang Tong looked at the slumped coachman and gave him a shot of stimulant.

"When the meat is distributed next time, I will give you two catties more."

"What about the salary?"

"Wages and meat do not interfere."

"Hey, mayor, you are so kind, drive, drive!!"

Xiang Tong didn't expect that two catties of meat would settle the matter.If he had to know that two catties of meat is so easy to use, he would have said it a long time ago.

Look at the speed at which this guy is driving, as if being chased by a dog, Xiang Tong couldn't help laughing out loud.

When they arrived at Qingxi Town the next day, they were taken to the Meng family courtyard. Xiang Tong looked at the spacious courtyard of Fu Xiaoniu's house, envious.

"Xinci, your house is the best courtyard we have seen during this journey."

"That's why you rarely see it. When you go to more places in the future, you won't say such things."

"Maybe." After Xiang Tong finished speaking, he happened to see a very energetic, kind-hearted old man walking out of the yard.

No need to ask, Xiang Tong knew who was coming, and hurriedly stepped forward to say hello: "Grandpa Meng, I'm Xiang Tong."

Grandpa Meng heard his granddaughter mention Xiang Tong, and he also knew that he was the mayor of Longcheng Town.

It's just that the old man didn't expect that the young man would personally escort this cart of black coal here.

You Qi approached and saw that Xiang Tong's face was covered with black ashes, so he hurriedly beckoned him to come in and wash up.

Xiang Tong was not in a hurry, but first asked where the coal should be put, and after unloading the car with the driver, the two simply washed and ate together.

Grandpa Meng squatted in front of the coal pile, looking at a pile of black, stone-like things, but he couldn't connect them with the fire.

Seeing his grandfather frowning and competing with the pile of coal, Fu Xinci could do nothing but wait for Xiang Tong and the others to come out after dinner and talk.

Fortunately, Xiang Tong and the others acted very quickly, and within a short while, the two of them had enough to eat and drink.

Xiang Tong came out of the wing room, and built a stove with the same stove that the coachman used to burn wood for the east room.

They brought quite a lot of things, and the stove was set up quickly.

Then Xiang Tong personally demonstrated to Grandpa Meng. When the red fire started to burn, Grandpa Meng's eyes lit up, and he said:
"This coal is a good thing."

Fu Yu had just finished teaching the children, when he heard the old father's voice, he also came over to watch.

"Is this coal?"

"Yes, with it, we don't have to worry about the coldness of the kang at night."

"Is it really that good?"

"It looks good to me. It's been half an hour, and the coals haven't been burned yet. If they were replaced with firewood and branches, they would have been burned long ago, and the ashes would have cooled down soon."

The more Grandpa Meng talked, the more energetic he became. Before the coals in this furnace were burned out, he had already fallen in love with this good thing deeply.

Qi Yuanshan hurried over after receiving the letter, and after exchanging greetings with Xiang Tong, he also became very interested in coal.

"When I go to the General's Mansion, I will show it to General Liu." After Qi Yuanshan finished speaking, he also learned how to light a stove with Xiang Tong.

Then he carried a bag of coal and went to the general's mansion.

When he came back the next day, he ordered [-] catties of coal on behalf of General Liu and Xiang Tong.

Xiang Tong was very happy, they didn't come in vain this time.
