A good conversation brought the relationship closer between the two parties.

Jushu and Tianfeng were not idle either. They wrote their own letters directly and asked their relatives and friends in Jizhou to send the books to Changshan for the library to copy.

The two even wrote a joint letter to Cai Yong, asking to borrow books for copying, and at the same time inviting them to come to Changshan Kingdom.

With Jushou and Tianfeng's current reputation, naturally they could not seduce the world-famous scholar Cai Yong, but Liu Chen was still very satisfied with this sincerity.

Compared with those aristocratic families who are not discerning, Jushou and Tianfeng are actually practicing

"Lord."

Just after Jushu and Tian Feng delivered the letters one by one, Zhao Yun came back at this time, with a very complicated expression on his face.

"Zilong, what happened? Liu Chen asked with some concern.

"Lord, some of those batches of prospectors have returned.……"

Zhao Yun's words surprised Liu Chen, and he interrupted and asked:"Have you found the iron ore?"

Zhao Yun said with a regretful expression:"No! They searched the southeast of Changshan Mountain and found no iron ore. However, they found salt. Mines and coal mines."

The first half of Zhao Yun's words made Liu Chen's excitement instantly extinguished by a basin of cold water. But the second half of the sentence surprised Liu Chen again!

"Salt mines and coal mines!"

Although no iron ore was found, salt mines and coal mines are also urgently needed in Liu Chen's daily life.

Seeing Liu Chen's excitement, Zhao Yun said hesitantly:"My lord, mineral salt is difficult to dry, and the salt produced is It is poisonous and can cause health problems if people eat too much.

Jushou on the side also echoed:"My lord, the imperial court has used skilled craftsmen to study many times, but it still cannot produce non-toxic salt, so it mostly consumes sea salt and well salt.""

Seeing that Liu Chen was so excited, they were afraid that Liu Chen would use the salt mine, which would endanger the lives of the soldiers and the people of Changshan.

"Don't worry, I have my own way."Liu Chen said in surprise.

The ancient salt refining technology was actually not really proficient until the Song Dynasty.

The salt in the late Han Dynasty was actually coarse salt. It mainly relied on drying sea salt or burning well salt to obtain coarse salt. It was not as refined as in later generations. Purified like that.

Because it is not completely purified, the toxic substances in the mineral salt are not filtered. If you eat too much, it will cause damage to the human body.

But they have no way, but Liu Chen can!

Within the [Institute] he remembered, there are There is perfect salt refining technology, and the price is not high!

Zhao Yun, Jushou and Tian Feng were a little shocked!

The court spent a lot of money and called on skilled craftsmen and talented people to filter out the toxic substances in the mineral salt, but they were unable to do it.

Could Liu Chen really do it? Do it?

Jushu and Tian Feng are still a little doubtful, but Zhao Yun is convinced. Because of the various changes in Changshan during this period, Zhao Yun has great confidence.

"With the salt mine, the people of Changshan no longer need to buy expensive sea salt. With coal mines, Changshan no longer has cold winters."Liu Chen said with some excitement.

Due to the inconvenience of transportation in this era, the price of salt, even if it was officially sold, was very expensive. It was not as expensive as a pack in later generations.

Coal had been discovered very early and was used as fuel during the Western Han Dynasty. , the winter in the north is extremely cold. With this product, there will be no cold winters.

The only thing you need to be careful about is that burning coal will produce toxic gases such as carbon dioxide, which can also cause harm to the human body if inhaled.

"Every home needs to build a chimney. By the way, you can also modify the kang for heating.……"

Liu Chen's mind is as bright as lightning and he brings benefits to the people of Changshan.

He woke up quickly, looked at Zhao Yun in surprise and said,"Zilong, where are the prospectors? This is a great achievement, and I will personally reward them!""

"Lord, among the prospectors who returned this time, his family was imprisoned and sentenced for stealing the money bag of a local wealthy man."Zhao Yun said with a complex expression.

Liu Chen frowned instantly and his face became gloomy.

Now the people in Changshan live and work in peace and contentment. Not long ago, the grain harvest tripled the output. Every household is happy and has a lot of harvest. At this time, someone was actually arrested for stealing. He was imprisoned, and he was also a prospector and his family.

When Liu Chen originally selected the prospectors, he had gone through a household registration review, and they were all local people, and the three generations were honest and good people.

Is this a slap in the face of Liu Chen? Or is it still a slap in the face? Insulting his IQ?

Tian Feng and Jushuo on the side also stared at each other, intuitively feeling a sense of conspiracy.

"Zilong knows this and will tell you in detail. Liu Chen said with a serious face.

"Lord, after this man came home and found out what happened, he came here to plead with me in every possible way. He cried and complained that the matter was unjust. I don’t know whether it was true or not.……"

Zhao Yun told the general story.

A local tycoon named Zhang reported that a wallet made of fine sheepskin was missing. After several searches, he found it at the home of an old farmer.

However, although the sheepskin money bag was found, the 6,000 money in the bag had disappeared.

The Prime Minister Yuan Fu personally tried the case. After the Prime Minister solved the case with a sharp eye, the old farmer finally confessed that he had undoubtedly stolen.

Because the money for the six thousand plants had been used up by the old farmer, the Prime Minister awarded the old farmer's twenty acres of land to the powerful Zhang.

"Zilong, bring all the relevant personnel and evidence. I will personally investigate the case. I want to see if my vision is too bad."

Liu Chen said coldly.

Zhao Yun immediately agreed to step down.

They were the ones who selected the ore prospectors, but there is a thief in the family. Whether it is reputation or the rewards later, it will be a slap in Liu Chen's face!

If you give him a prize, he will definitely be criticized. If he doesn’t give him a prize, who will do anything for Liu Chen in the future?

"Gong Yu, Yuan Hao, I’ve made you laugh."

"The Lord's words are serious, there is obviously something fishy about this matter, and we are also very curious!"Jushou and Tian Feng looked at each other and smiled.

At this time, they need their advisers to take action.

If the case is easily judged by then, Liu Chen will definitely be more important to Liu Chen, and at the same time, he can find the bad apple for Liu Chen!
