Wang Jinyuan stretched out his hand, swearing and swearing, especially the look of admiration on his face, even Fang Jifan began to doubt, is there any sign of recovery in his reputation?

In any case, the joining of Wang Jinyuan is half of the success of "Zhen Guo Coal Industry". After all, he has been in business for a long time, has many connections and rich experience. Wait for a professional to deal with the problem.

Fang Jifan was the big boss, Wang Jinyuan was the big shopkeeper, and as for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, he naturally became the most suitable promotion spokesperson.

Hearing the word spokesperson, Zhu Houzhao tilted his neck, thinking about any words and sentences related to the spokesperson, but finally he didn't understand it: "The spokesperson is big, or the big boss is big?"

Fang Jifan raised his thumb: "The same size!"

"Oh." Zhu Houzhao was immediately happy: "Although this name is not aggressive enough, but I thought about it, this is also good. In business, it is good to be approachable. The spokesperson... sounds like it is not easy to scare people. But, What does a spokesperson do?"

Fang Jifan looked at Zhu Houzhao with a smile and said, "Broadcasting our coal represents the image of our Zhenguo coal industry."

Zhu Houzhao suddenly became furious, and his eyes lit up: "This palace is heroic, this is perfect, you know me best!"

Fang Jifan immediately gave a thumbs up: "Your Highness has a stalwart image, which is really a good match for our Zhenguo Coal Industry."

I couldn't help scolding in my heart, shameless!

...

The cabinet sits in an obscure corner of the Forbidden City.

But although this place is inconspicuous, it is the center of the whole world.

Countless memorials in the world will be sent here first for the cabinet scholars to read. After the ministers draft the memorials, they will be sent to the emperor for review.

The so-called proposals are the suggestions of the cabinet scholars. For example, a certain official in a certain place plays a certain event. After the scholars have read it, they will write down suggestions in the memorial based on their own experience, and then send it to the emperor. The emperor will read it first. The content of the memorandum, and then look at the suggestion of the Grand Master, and make the final decision.

Out of respect for the cabinet scholars, under normal circumstances, suggestions will be adopted. Therefore, the emperor only needs to draw a red circle under the memorial, and then do things according to the wishes of the cabinet scholars.

It is precisely because of the proposed power that the cabinet scholars are called prime ministers in Ming Dynasty. Although they are not prime ministers, they have the same status and power as prime ministers.

Liu Jian, the senior scholar of the first assistant of the cabinet, Li Dongyang and Xie Qian, the senior scholars, will enter the palace early every morning, then meet the emperor, and discuss matters with the emperor in the warm pavilion.

Afterwards, I went back to the cabinet to prepare a memorial. At noon, the three old fellows who were both colleagues and close friends would go to the tea room next to the duty room to drink tea, eat some pastries, and talk about their favorite things. Views on recent events.

Outside the warm tea room, the snow was falling heavily, and the snow was already a foot thick. It was the Mid-Autumn Festival at this time, and this kind of natural vision was enough to make the three great scholars worry.

Liu Jian took a sip of tea, put down the cup, sighed and said, "I don't know why, since the ninth year of Hongzhi, every Mid-Autumn Festival, the weather has suddenly turned cold, so that spring doesn't look like spring, and autumn doesn't look like autumn. It's all right if the grain production has been reduced. His Majesty has worked hard to rule the country in the past few years. There is enough old grain in the treasury. It is no problem for the court, but it is a pain for the people. I heard that many refugees are still on the streets, not to mention that there are so many poor people. The common people don’t even have anything to keep warm, my lords, if it’s like this every year, how can we get it?”

Xie Qian sighed, and was in no mood to drink tea: "My old man heard the rumors, is there something immoral in the imperial court?"

"Cough cough..." Li Dongyang coughed, this Xie Qian was eloquent, he would show off his tongue if he caught anyone, he couldn't hide things in his mouth, Li Dongyang seemed cautious: "Xie Gong is careful, the rumors in the market are not enough to be believed. "

Liu Jian just shook his head with a wry smile.

God's affairs are not under the control of the cabinet scholars.

But at this moment, Liu Jian noticed someone outside the room poking his head, Liu Jian raised his eyelids slightly, showing a majestic look: "Come in."

The person who came was a little eunuch with a stooped body, and when he raised his face, Liu Jian vaguely remembered this person, and this person was actually Liu Jin, the eldest companion of the prince.

Liu Jin smiled obsequiously and said: "I have seen Liu Gong, Xie Gong, and Li Gong. The sky has changed in the past few days, and it has suddenly snowed heavily. Your Highness, the Crown Prince, is concerned about the three masters, so I specially sent slaves to give the three masters Add some firewood to keep warm."

Liu Jian, Li Dongyang, and Xie Qian were stunned for a while, looking at each other in blank dismay.

His Royal Highness usually hides when he sees three people, not to mention that he took the initiative to get close. What's going on today, I actually took the initiative to care about the three old guys.

Liu Jian suddenly showed a look of relief, stroked his beard and nodded: "Okay, okay, okay, His Royal Highness is sensible." Liu Jian is not only the chief assistant of the cabinet, but also the prince's tutor. He is still the prince's teacher. As a prince, he should respect his teacher.

What does this mean? It means that His Royal Highness has grown up and knows how to love others.

Liu Jian's eyes are bright, and the corners of his eyes are a little moist. The prince is the hope of the country's future. This child is finally sensible. Such a caring courtier has the air of being a father, which is gratifying.

Xie Qian also grinned, but Li Dongyang seemed to feel strange, his expression was as usual, but he said: "Please tell the prince, I will thank you for your highness."

Liu Jin rolled her eyes, but still refused to leave, and said with a smile: "Your Highness said, you have to watch the three masters add firewood before you leave."

Liu Jian raised his hand: "Then add it."

"Okay, His Royal Highness also ordered that the slaves should personally change the braziers for the three masters."

Saying that, he left the room happily, and after a while, he and another eunuch Ma Yongcheng of Zhan Shifu carried a brazier in. The 'firewood' in the brazier was already lit and steaming.

"Wait a minute!" Li Dongyang was the most careful. He always felt that things were not so simple. He stared at the brazier, frowned and said, "Isn't this charcoal? It's coal!"

It's coal!

All of a sudden, it was as if a pan had exploded in the tea room. Burning coal was no different from committing suicide. People would die, not to mention the three old bones of Liu Jian.

Liu Jian's expression suddenly changed. Is this... a joke?

Xie Qian was so angry that he almost vomited blood. His Royal Highness, this is to kill someone. He is immoral, but he is so young.

The coal of this era is different from the coal of later generations, and it cannot be refined. The sulfur content in this coal is extremely high. Once it is burned, it will produce a large amount of sulfur dioxide. If you inhale too much, it will really kill people. of.

Burning coal for heating is tantamount to committing suicide, which is common sense.

Xie Qian was furious and was about to scold.

Liu Jin said with a grin, "My lords have no worries, you won't be poisoned, this is anthracite, it doesn't generate smoke, it is naturally non-toxic, look, how can there be smoke here?"

Having said that, Liu Jian and others took a closer look, and sure enough, when the coal burned, it was not black smoke billowing like ordinary coal, but it was just a curl of white gas, as if... there was no pungent smell .

Ok? There is such coal in the world?

Xie Qian narrowed his eyes and couldn't help saying: "This thing must be extremely expensive, right?"

"Not expensive, not expensive." Liu Jin said with a smile: "It's just a few big bucks a catty, and anthracite coal burns for a long time, and it's enough for a day."

As soon as these words came out, Liu Jian suddenly became excited...
