Chapter 285
Li Shimin was not unfamiliar with coal, and many people were not unfamiliar with it.
It was just that people in this era did not know how to desulfurize or wash coal.
Unprocessed coal burning indoors could easily lead to poisoning, which was fatal.
It was okay outdoors, but it was also very dangerous, and it was also life-threatening to keep warm nearby.
"Young Master, the coal in the Tang Dynasty was poisonous..." Li Lizhi could not help but remind Xiao Ran.
"I know, it's the same. Coal is one of the most common heating materials in our area."
Li Shimin was shocked, "Heating with coal, don't you want to live?"
"Uncle, coal is much more durable than charcoal after it is processed. Charcoal needs to be burned, which is actually very troublesome and expensive. The biggest problem with coal is that it is more dangerous to dig."
Li Shimin's eyes lit up, and he understood what Xiao Ran meant, "You mean, can coal be used after it is processed?"
"Yes, that's what I mean." Xiao Ran nodded.
"There is a lot of coal near Chang'an..." Li Shimin understood that if coal could really be used, the price of charcoal near Chang'an would definitely be brought down.
In this way, more people can use coal.
The court can also make money by selling coal.
The more Li Shimin thought about it, the more excited he became. Although he was excited in his heart, he looked calm on the surface.
"If it is really possible, it is not bad." Li Shimin acted very calmly.
I was afraid that Xiao Ran would threaten me.
"Uncle, just tell me whether you will show me the Lanting Preface!"
"What is the other one?" Li Shimin did not refuse. Now he was curious about the second method Xiao Ran gave, how to benefit the people for a long time.
Xiao Ran looked at it and found that the coat on his body was a cotton coat, not a down coat.
Xiao Ran thought about it, unzipped it, and tore a hole from the inside.
Empress Changsun and Li Shimin were all confused, not knowing what Xiao Ran was trying to do.
Xiao Ran pulled out a ball of cotton, "This can be used to make clothes, quilts, etc. It has a good warming effect."
Li Shimin took the cotton, "It looks good."
"Why does it feel a little familiar?" Empress Changsun also took a look.
"Grandpa and mother, isn't this the cotton planted in the palace?" Li Lizhi reminded that there is in this palace.
"Isn't that for viewing?" Li Shimin also remembered.
"This is the feeling of cotton, is it cotton?" Empress Changsun asked Xiao Ran for confirmation.
"Yes, this is cotton, which can be planted on a large scale."
Li Shimin touched Xiao Ran's cotton coat, "This is good... This has a good effect in keeping warm."
"Lanting Preface, I'll show you, give me the method of handling coal." Li Shimin felt that cotton and coal were invaluable.
It doesn't matter if he takes it out for Xiao Ran to see, anyway, it's not for Xiao Ran.
"Deal!"
Xiao Ran also readily agreed. These things have no cost to Xiao Ran, but they are of great significance to the Tang Dynasty.
Xiao Ran doesn't need to pay anything, it's worth it to be able to see Lanting Xu.
Although I don't understand calligraphy, this is the best running script in the world!
This is a priceless treasure, which was lost in the 21st century and can no longer be seen.
I definitely want to see it.
"Ananda, bring paper and pen!" Li Shimin is eager to see it.
"It's not just about how to deal with coal, but also how to grow cotton on a large scale. You have to tell me."
Li Shimin said that he could see Lanting Xu, so Xiao Ran didn't have to worry about Li Shimin cheating.
After all, he is an emperor, and his words must be credible.
Li Shimin has no need to deceive Xiao Ran.
"These are all fine, but I can't write with a brush..." Looking at the brush, Xiao Ran didn't know how to start.
First of all, Xiao Ran didn't know how to wash it, so he had to ask Baidu. Secondly, Xiao Ran's writing with this brush is ugly and slow.
"You don't know how to write with a brush?"
"I don't use a brush. You should have seen the previous calligraphy, uncle. It wasn't written with a brush. I'll go back and write it for you! Don't worry, it won't be delayed. I'll do it in a minute..."
After hearing Xiao Ran say this, Li Shimin didn't know what to say.
Xiao Ran and Li Shimin were very satisfied with this cooperation.
They both felt that they had gained without paying anything.
"It's getting late. We have to send our sixth sister to the hospital later. We have to go back." Xiao Ran looked at his mobile phone.
The mobile phone has a signal near the bronze mirror. After leaving the inner palace of the little princess, there is basically no signal at all.
"Well, OK, I have to go to the Taiji Palace too." Li Shimin couldn't stay with Empress Changsun all the time.
Hearing that they were leaving, the two little princesses also ran to Xiao Ran's side.
The little princess pulled Xiao Ran, "Little Nangjun~ Let's fly home~"
"Okay!"
Xiao Ran drove the car with Li Lizhi and the two little princesses Qinglan and Yushu out of Lizheng Palace.
"One"I left all of a sudden, and it felt deserted." Li Shimin looked at the direction where Mini left.
Li Shimin was a little uncomfortable, and felt that Xiao Ran, Li Lizhi and the two little princesses were more lively.
A little reluctant.
"Your Majesty, Li Zhi and Sizi can come every day." Empress Changsun understood Li Shimin's thoughts, and Empress Changsun felt the same way.
Before, Li Lizhi would accompany Empress Changsun most of the time. Since she became familiar with Xiao Ran, Li Lizhi spent less and less time with Empress Changsun.
Nothing usually comes to Lizheng Hall, and she won't stay in Lizheng Hall for too long.
Li Shimin and Empress Changsun returned to the inner hall and saw a lot of instant noodles.
Li Shimin opened a box, "It's really a lot!"
Li Shimin was still very satisfied with these gifts.
"Your Majesty, move more to Taiji Hall. This is convenient to eat. When you are hungry, you can eat something hot at any time. It is also good to warm your body in the winter."
"Well, okay, I'll take some over. ”
Li Shimin looked at the boxes, "Ananda, take a box of braised and seafood to Taiji Hall."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
"Zhi Nu, Da Lang and Qing Que should also like it, send some to them." Li Shimin did not forget his sons.
"Yes, Your Majesty, I remember it."
Li Shimin added, "Give more to Cheng Qian, Qing Que and Zhi Nu can be the same."
"I remember it!"
"Empress, I have to go too."
"Okay, I will tell Your Majesty the first time I get the information about coal." Empress Changsun knew that Li Shimin was anxious.
Li Shimin was very satisfied with this.
