Not only did he buy honeycomb coal and a coal stove to try out at home, he also invited his neighbors to come and see.
After the neighbors see it, it is inevitable that some of them will be tempted.
In addition, the price of honeycomb coal is cheaper than the coal blocks they usually use, so many people choose to buy it.
There were even some wealthy families who lamented that the mine owner was too kind and worried that the mine's business was not doing well, so they took the initiative to buy coal to support it.
So after a few days, the sales of honeycomb coal became higher and higher.
In order to get free home delivery and free coal stoves, many people have even learned to place orders in bulk.
Seeing that honeycomb coal is selling better and better, other coal merchants and charcoal merchants can't help but feel uneasy.
The price of charcoal is much higher than that of coal, especially as the surrounding trees have been continuously cut down for charcoal burning in recent years, the number of trees left is getting smaller and smaller, and the price of charcoal is also rising steadily.
Most people are reluctant to burn charcoal and can only burn firewood and coal.
Originally, the charcoal merchants did not make money from these poor people, but as many wealthy families followed suit and bought coal, it naturally affected the business of these charcoal merchants.
However, the ones most affected are the coal traders.
Seeing that honeycomb coal sales were getting better and better, they soon became restless.
Considering the eldest princess's status, these people did not dare to cause trouble directly. Instead, they asked someone to buy honeycomb coal and coal stoves to test them.
They soon discovered that the coal stove was actually very simple in design and not difficult to imitate.
It's that honeycomb coal, it's really weird.
It does burn better than ordinary coal, and most importantly, it doesn't produce much smoke.
This alone makes it comparable to the more expensive anthracite.
But its selling price is even lower than that of ordinary coal, not to mention anthracite!
Buy more and get free delivery to your door, or even a coal stove for free!
How can a mine make money if it operates like this?
Could it be that they are really opening a charity?
The princess must be sick!
Even if you want to open a charity, there is no need to steal the business from these coal merchants!
Isn’t this bullying?
The coal merchants were angry and annoyed, but unfortunately the other party had a too big background and they could not afford to offend him.
I can only try to imitate honeycomb coal first.
They were not stupid, and used the cheapest crushed coal slag to imitate it. However, they had no idea how to knead the crushed coal slag into a ball.
After many experiments, someone had a sudden idea and used yellow mud to make the appearance of honeycomb coal.
As soon as they lit a fire, they found that the honeycomb coal they made was not as easy to burn as the one from Taiping Coal Mine.
Even so, there are still unscrupulous businessmen who engage in the black-hearted business of counterfeiting and shoddy products.
They imitate honeycomb coal by using crushed coal slag and yellow mud, and sell it at a low price as honeycomb coal from Taiping Coal Mine.
They also said it was internal goods.
Their secret mine was unknown at first.
It was not until some people bought low-quality coal and ran to the mine's specialty store to return it that the mine realized that someone was selling counterfeit coal and reported it directly to the government.
Afterwards, a thorough internal investigation was immediately launched to prevent any workers from being bribed by unscrupulous businessmen and giving false testimony for them.
Not only that, a notice was issued throughout the mine that anyone who colluded with unscrupulous businessmen outside, committed fraud, and helped the unscrupulous businessmen to pass off counterfeit goods as those of Taiping Coal Mine would be immediately fired, announced to the entire mine, and would never be hired again!
This made some workers who were ready to make a move panic, and they quickly gave up their evil thoughts and dared not do anything wrong again.
Even those workers who wanted to sell coal to make a profit were scared and gave up the idea, fearing that they would lose their jobs in the mine.
With the arrest of these counterfeit and shoddy coal merchants, the rest of the coal merchants no longer dared to engage in counterfeit and shoddy activities. Even if they still made honeycomb coal for sale, they dared not use the Taiping Coal Mine name.
But they did not dare to give up and watch their business being taken away.
So they secretly asked someone to spread the news that the honeycomb coal from Taiping Coal Mine was made of cheap coal slag and yellow mud, and that selling it for fifteen cents was simply unscrupulous!
