I lead the system to tease the First Emperor to build infrastructure

After Zhao Jun and Zou Yong greeted each other, they slowly approached the stone picking place with everyone.

Along the way, people kept carrying stones back and forth.

The whole road is covered with trampled fly ash.

"Are all these people criminals?"

Xiao He asked a small official who led them over.

These people were dark, with curved backs and numb expressions.

Looking at this terrible environment, one can already imagine how hard the people here are.

"Yes, most of the people here are war criminals, but there are not enough people. The place opposite is paid for."

The little official pointed to the stone quarry on the opposite side. The people there looked similar to those here.

"How are the war criminals here treated, and how much are the workers paid?"

Zhao Jun looked around and asked questions in doubt.

"We don't abuse war criminals, it's already very preferential treatment, three meals a day, although the food is not good, but we can't go hungry anyway, it's just that the work is a bit hard, and the workers hired are paid a lot of money."

Zhao Jun heard him say that the daily salary is indeed quite a lot.

They chatted all the way, and finally came to the place where the stones were picked.

It was a huge hole, and people kept picking stones up from it.

But the hole is not deep, and the people inside can be seen beating hard.

"Okay, everyone, look around and see if you can find a pure black stone."

Everyone was very curious about mining stones, and kept looking inside.

After Zhao Jun shouted, everyone started to act.

There are quite a few people working around, but only occasionally someone looks up at them, most of the time they are just sitting and doing their own business.

Zhao Jun looked around the quarry, and there were many holes that had been punched out.

There should be something to gain here.

The scattered people kept beating around.

Not long after, a shout came from somewhere.

"My lord, this way."

That was Qingliu's voice.

Could it have been discovered.

Soon, Zhao Jun and others gathered towards her.

Seeing Jun Zhao approaching, Qingliu asked excitedly holding the things in his hand.

"Is it this black stone?"

What Qingliu held in his hand was a piece of black coal!

found it!
"Yes, this is the kind, this is coal!"

Zhao Jun was very excited. He didn't expect to get something for the first time. Their luck is really great!

She quickly rushed to Qingliu's side and gave her a big hug.

The people around were dumbfounded.

After Zhao Jun hugged her, he went to look at the coal in her hand.

Coal indeed, black and full of soot.

"This is coal."

Fusu didn't understand why she was so excited, the black stone looked ordinary.

"Is this the treasure?"

Liu Bang also looked puzzled standing behind.

How do you look at this is a black stone, could it be that the inside is cut into gold?
"Qingliu, where did you dig this?"

Zhao Jun ignored these people and just asked Qingliu.

Qingliu pointed to not far away, a few pieces of black coal were exposed on the ground, and the rest were buried in the soil.

She walked to the side and took a look. It seemed that she still had to dig this side to know how big the coal mine was.

"Everyone, see if this little rock is ordinary."

After looking at it, Zhao Jun turned his head and said to them with the coal in his hand.

"Then you are optimistic."

Zhao Jun intends to demonstrate the efficacy of coal in person.

"Xiao He, do you have flint and steel with you?"

But Zhao Jun couldn't light a fire, so he could only call Xiao He who might have flint.

Xiao He nodded and took out the flint.

Zhao Jun put the things in the ground a little far away.

"You light the fire on the coals."

Xiao He didn't know why but he did it anyway.

Zhao Jun stood aside, ready to watch proudly.

Xiao He ignited the fire very quickly. Before everyone knew exactly what Zhao Jun was going to do, the fire was already lit.

Then everyone saw that the little coal was ignited.

Xiao He quickly withdrew his hand, stood up and watched the coal being ignited.

"Can this be burned?" Fu Su's eyes widened.

You must know that basically everyone burns wood now.

Suddenly seeing that this kind of stone is burning, everyone didn't react.

"Yeah, keep watching."

Zhao Jun told everyone to keep staring at the coal.

So, now is such a picture.

A group of handsome men and women and a group of soldiers all stood still and stared at a stone quietly.

From a distance, the picture is so funny.

Everyone stared at it for a while, until Liu Bang, who was screaming, couldn't stand it anymore.

"Although this stone is miraculously able to burn, it doesn't take us to stare at it for so long, right?"

Liu Ji didn't understand, so he looked at Zhao Jun.

He turned to look at the person next to him.

For some reason, Xiao He Fusu all stared at the burning stone with fanatical eyes.

"What the hell are you looking at?"

Liu Ji was frightened by their eyes, and couldn't help leaning in front of Xiao He to ask.

"You haven't figured it out, you're stupid."

Zhao Jun leisurely stood at the back, looking at the few people who were motionless.

Then he glanced at Liu Bang mockingly.

Liu Bang was still confused and didn't understand.

"Look, it's just such a small piece of coal, but it hasn't changed since it was burned, didn't you notice?"

After hearing her words, everyone also woke up from the frenzy.

"Yes, you can see that the size of the flame has not changed at all, but the coal has not changed at all, and that shows."

"It shows that this kind of coal can burn for a very long time, and it can completely replace firewood."

Xiao He lost his usual elegance, and now he spoke very loudly.

"Yes, firewood burns very quickly and often requires a lot of wood to burn enough, but now, with this burn-resistant coal, there is no need for firewood at all."

Fusu is also very excited, this is of great benefit to the development of Qin.

As the first person to discover it, Qingliu was even more excited and speechless.

"Yes, that's right, so you said whether this thing is a treasure."

"Yes!" Everyone said in unison.

"Not only that, but according to my findings, the output of this kind of coal is not small. Once it is found here, it means that there should be a lot of it underground, and there should be other places as well."

"So, with so much output, it can completely replace firewood and enter thousands of households."

The people present were even more excited.

"This is really a treasure."

Liu Ji looked at the coals that were still burning and murmured.

"Okay, the purpose of going out of the city this time has been achieved. Let's go back to Xianyang first. The coal mines here will definitely be exploited on a large scale."

Although the coal was found, the subsequent mining of the coal mine is still a big problem.

She had to go back and make a long-term plan.

"Then, should we just leave this thing here?"

Fusu sees this piece of land now, it is a treasure, and he is a little worried about leaving it here.

"I will leave a group of captains and the original soldiers from the quarry to surround this place first."

"After returning to the palace, report to the king and send someone to take over."

"I'm afraid this quarry can't be used anymore. It will be changed into a coal mining site in the future."
