Poor Family: I reached the top by marrying a wife

Chapter 46 Honeycomb briquettes, a fatal disaster!

When Jiang Chen heard what Third Master Xue said, he smiled faintly: "Haha, big brother, this is all thanks to you!"

"If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have had the chance to meet Master Xue!"

Jiang Chen was not being polite when he said this. If it weren't for Third Master Xue, he really wouldn't have had the chance to meet the county magistrate.

There would be no such glory as it is today!

"Haha, Brother Jiang, you are being modest. With your ability, it is only a matter of time before you get to know my second uncle."

"By the way, next time you see my second uncle, you must call him Second Uncle, otherwise he will be angry!" Mr. Xue said with a smile.

Jiang Chen returned to the village with Mr. Xue San, chatting and laughing.

The villagers were waiting for Jiang Chen at the entrance of the village.

The villagers breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Jiang Chen and Mr. Xue Sanye coming back together.

However, when they saw Master Xue San, the villagers were too afraid to step forward!

Only Zhou Si ran up to Jiang Chen and asked, "Brother Jiang, how is it!?"

"Don't worry, Fourth Brother. I have recovered my things, and those bandits have paid the price!" Jiang Chen said with a smile.

"That's good! That's good!" Zhou Si also breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.

At this time, Mr. Xue San spoke.

"My fellow villagers, I am the mayor of this town. I came to the village today to announce two things!"

"First, the scarred bandit who robbed Jiang Chen has been caught by the county yamen runners and will be beheaded soon!"

"Secondly, the county magistrate has specially appointed Jiang Chen as the village chief of your Zhoujia Village. The execution will begin today!"

"this……!?"

When the villagers heard what Master Xue San said, they were all shocked!

"Jiang Chen is going to be the village chief!?"

"What about the old village chief?"

"Yes! What about the old village chief?"

"Scarface is dead, that's a good thing!"

"I don't know if the bandits will come to collect the annual grain this year!"

……

The villagers were talking a lot.

But the village chief was smiling: "Jiang Chen, that's great. I feel relieved to have you as the village chief!"

Through recent events, Village Chief Zhou has also realized that only Jiang Chen can lead the villagers to live a good life!

As for him, he believed that as long as Jiang Chen was around, he would not starve to death!

"Jiang Chen, congratulations!"

"Jiang Chen, we all depend on you from now on!"

"Jiang Chen..."

With Village Chief Zhou taking the lead, the villagers also congratulated Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen smiled and said, "Don't worry, I, Jiang Chen, will never let you go hungry!"

"it is good!"

The villagers were extremely excited when they heard Jiang Chen's words!

After talking to the villagers for a few words, Jiang Chen brought Master Xue San to his home.

After arriving at the yard, Jiang Chen took out the honeycomb coal.

"Brother Jiang, what is this? Did you make it? It's not food, is it?" Uncle Xue looked at the honeycomb coal with a puzzled look on his face.

"Brother, this is not food, this is charcoal!" Jiang Chen said, lighting the honeycomb coal and placing it in the stove.

Jiang Chen has decided that in order not to expose the true nature of honeycomb coal, he will call it charcoal no matter who he is talking to!

“This…is this charcoal!?”

Mr. Xue San was extremely shocked when he looked at the burning honeycomb coal!

It was the first time he had seen such charcoal.

However, it seems that this charcoal burns more vigorously!

"Brother, your charcoal... looks extraordinary!"

"Haha, big brother is really smart!"

Jiang Chen smiled faintly, and then said: "Brother, my charcoal is half the price of ordinary charcoal, and... it can last longer than ordinary charcoal!"

"You say...if I sell this carbon in winter, can I make money?"

……

"You...what did you say!?"

Mr. Xue was stunned!

Jiang Chen said, this carbon... is half the price of ordinary carbon, but twice as resistant to burning!

This...if this is sold out, then...then it won't be a money-making business!

The entire Dajing will change because of the appearance of this thing!

"Brother, I want to partner with you and sell this charcoal together. What do you think?"

Jiang Chen thought about it and realized that if he wanted to sell honeycomb coal, he would have to have some background.

Now the only one he can rely on is Mr. Xue San.

If Mr. Xue San joined, he would feel more at ease in the future.

"Brother Jiang...Brother Jiang, did you make this thing?!"

"You...you still want to sell it with me!?"

"me……"

Mr. Xue was completely dumbfounded!

"Yes, brother, how about we split the money we earn from selling charcoal in half?"

"I'll be in charge of production and you'll be in charge of sales, how about that?" Jiang Chen said with a smile.

"no!"

Mr. Xue San refused without hesitation!

"this……!?"

Jiang Chen was slightly startled.

Fifty percent, Mr. Xue San still thinks it’s not enough?

Although he can make a lot of money on the cost, Mr. Xue San... won't be able to see it! ?

"Brother, I will give you another 10%, no more, otherwise I will lose money!" Jiang Chen said with a sigh.

"No no no!"

When Mr. Xue heard what Jiang Chen said, he hurriedly stopped Jiang Chen!

"Brother, I don't think it's too little, it's too much. You...just give me half of it!" Mr. Xue said excitedly.

"Brother, you are scolding me! How can half be enough? You..." Jiang Chen interrupted Mr. Xue.

But Master Xue smiled bitterly and said, "My silly brother, do you know how much profit you can make once you sell this charcoal?"

"If the production keeps up and the sales channels are opened up, it won't be a problem to earn over a million taels of silver a year!"

……

"Isn't it!?"

Jiang Chen never expected that the profit would be so huge!

This... Mr. Xue San is not kidding! ?

"Brother Jiang, half of it is enough for me, but... you have to give my second uncle at least 50%!"

"Of course, this 50% is not all for my second uncle, but he also needs to find a background!"

"This thing can only be sold with a strong background. It will be impossible for you, me, and my second uncle to sell it!" said Mr. Xue San with a wry smile.

"Is this... so serious?" Jiang Chen felt a little shocked.

Even the county magistrate can’t handle it?

"Haha, Brother Jiang, you don't know the importance of charcoal. Heating is only one aspect. Forging iron and casting weapons, can you do it without charcoal?"

"The carbon in our Dajing is all controlled by the aristocratic families. Their annual profit is more than a million!"

“Some even secretly sell carbon to the grasslands, making profits of more than a million!”

"And by doing this, you are destroying their lifeblood!"

"Tell me, if they find out, will they let you go?"

Mr. Xue said with a wry smile.

When Jiang Chen heard this, he was stunned!

If he had known that carbon was so important, he would not have said it today!

But now that I have said it, I can’t take it back!

"But don't worry, brother Jiang. My second uncle knows a noble man. These birthday peaches, including the tiger, are all gifts from my second uncle to that noble man!"

"As long as this noble man nods, those aristocratic families will not be a problem!"

"If you really want to sell it, bring the charcoal back to me and light it. I'll show it to my second uncle. If you don't want to sell it, I'll pretend I never saw it. Just keep it to yourself and don't tell anyone!"

"Otherwise, you may be killed!"
