Traveling through time and space to become a concubine's daughter, leading the whole village to

Village chief Han's family used the coal mine to cook a meal, and Mr. Liu was still very interested in eating a bowl of rice made with this black stone at Village chief Han's house.

Mr. Liu: "Old Han, you're right, the rice cooked with black stones is just like the rice we cook with wood, there's no strange smell!"

After finishing his meal, Mr. Liu smacked his lips, savoring the taste.

At first, Mr. Liu was worried that the rice cooked with black stone would have an earthy smell. But when he picked up the bowl and tasted it carefully, it was not what he expected at all.

The food made from this black stone is more delicious than that made from wood.

Boss Han asked what the high flash point was. Boss Han couldn't explain what the flash point was, so he just said that Xu Miao had told them so.

After finishing his meal, Village Chief Han took Old Man Liu to Xu Miao's house.

Village chief Han is now eager to know how this stone egg, which Xu Miao calls black gold, can be sold for money!

Village chief Han brought old man Liu to knock on the door of Xu Miao's house. Xu Miao was already waiting in her yard.

Xu Miao knew that after dinner, Village Chief Han would definitely come to her house to ask about the coal mine.

I boiled water in the yard early in the morning and waited for the arrival of Village Chief Han.

Village Chief Han: "A Miao, tell me, how can we sell these stone eggs for silver?"

Xu Miao quickly poured hot water for Village Chief Han and Old Man Liu, then sat down.

He began to discuss things with them in detail, and it looked like three shrewd military strategists were planning a earth-shaking operation.

"Uncle Han, Master Liu, you can see how this coal is used. With this coal, our Hanjia Village can dig it out of the ground and sell it in Dingzhou City."

"The residents of Dingzhou City, teahouses, taverns, and even the barracks all need this thing."

When Village Chief Han and Mr. Liu heard what Xu Miao said, they realized it was indeed the case.

Who doesn’t use wood to cook? If there is something that can replace wood, it will definitely be sold.

After listening to Xu Miao's story, Old Man Liu said, "Hey, especially that barracks that A Miao mentioned! There are so many soldiers in there! Eating and burning firewood are really big problems. But if we had this coal, hey, it would definitely come in handy in the barracks."

After listening to what Mr. Liu and Xu Miao said, Village Chief Han also felt excited.

If they could really sell this coal, they wouldn't have to farm anymore in Hanjia Village. They could just sell the coal.

"A Miao, how do you think we're going to sell this coal? Can we just dig it out of the ground and sell it?"

Village chief Han was skeptical about this kind of pie-in-the-sky thing.

The coal is underground in Hanjia Village. If we dig it out, we can exchange it for silver. Isn't that just picking up silver for free?

Seeing the puzzled look on Village Chief Han's face, Xu Miao replied, "Uncle Han, it's really as you think. We can sell it for silver just by digging it out of the ground."

"But this coal mine, like the iron mine, is controlled by the government. I'm worried about the risks if we dig it up and sell it ourselves. Will the government allow it?"

Xu Miao cleared her throat, "Ahem," and then told Village Chief Han and Old Man Liu all the things that worried her.

After hearing what Xu Miao said, Village Chief Han and Old Man Liu looked at each other in bewilderment. They hadn't expected this.

Then, Village Chief Han touched his chin and hummed thoughtfully.

Old Mr. Liu frowned and made two "tsk tsk" sounds, as if he was pondering what Xu Miao said.

In the end, it was Village Chief Han who spoke first to Xu Miao.

"A Miao, we really need to be more cautious about this matter."

"Go to Young General Zhou first to get some information. Our Hanjia Village is close to the military camp, so tell Young General Zhou first. Then go to Dingzhou City and report to General Liu as well."

"If both generals tell us to dig it up, we'll dig it up and sell it."

Village Chief Han paused, then continued, "I think it would be best to send a letter to the capital as well. Let the Duke know as well."

"A Miao, this is what I think."

Village Chief Han cleared his throat and continued, "If our Hanjia Village is just a poor place where even rabbits don't shit, the people in the capital will definitely look down on us."

"But what if this coal mine can make a lot of money as you said? Do you think the capital city can have any ideas?"

"Also, this lucrative business requires a powerful backer."

Village chief Han also told Xu Miao about his concerns.

After hearing what Han Jiacun said, Xu Miao fell silent.

He sat there quietly, his eyes fixed on the ground, as if thinking about some important problem. There was silence all around him.

After a moment, Xu Miao raised his head and replied, "Uncle Han, I really need to tell the Duke about this."

"This coal mine will definitely make a lot of money. We have to greet the Duke."

"If anything happens, the Duke can still speak for us."

Neither Xu Miao nor Village Chief Han wanted to do something like crossing the river and then destroying the bridge.

Old Man Liu blinked and stared at Xu Miao and Village Chief Han: "A Miao, can you really make a lot of money?"

Xu Miao: "Master Liu, don't worry. As long as this coal mine can be sold, we will definitely make a lot of money. When we have enough money, I will also make you a mink vest to wear!"

Ever since Mr. Liu saw the mink vest worn by Village Chief Han, he has been obsessed with it. He would run to Village Chief Han's house whenever he had the chance and ask to touch it. He almost rubbed the mink vest bare.

After the three of them finished discussing, Village Chief Han went home and called Han Lao San, asking him to ride a horse to the military camp to find Zhou Jicheng.

After the Chinese New Year, Han Dahai and Zhou Jicheng went to the military camp to join the army.

Now, Han Laosan is the one who runs errands in Hanjia Village.

When Han Laosan rode to the military camp on horseback, only Village Chief Han and Xu Miao were left at Xu Miao's house.

Village Chief Han cautiously asked Xu Miao, "Ah Miao, what can the government do? Can they allow us to continue this business?"

Village chief Han was worried that if the government knew that there was a coal mine in Hanjia Village, they would drive all the people in Hanjia Village away, and all their efforts would be in vain.

Xu Miao had just thought of this, and when Village Chief Han asked about it, Xu Miao replied, "Uncle Han, regarding this coal mine matter, we really need to first contact the capital and see what the Duke does. Then we can talk to General Liu."

"Uncle Han, I think if we can get Hanjia Village to dig for three years, we will be able to turn things around."

Three years is enough time for Hanjia Village to undergo earth-shaking changes.

Seeing that Xu Miao had a plan, Village Chief Han stopped asking questions and waited for Zhou Jicheng to come and see what he would say.

Zhou Jicheng arrived at Hanjia Village in the evening. After listening to Xu Miao's story about the coal mine, he asked Xu Miao in confusion, "Are there really stones that can burn?"

If this stone can really be used for heating and cooking as Xu Miao said, their military camp will need a lot of it.

There are many people in the military camp, and a lot of wood is consumed every day for cooking, not to mention heating in winter.

If this stone could replace wood, it would really solve a big problem.
