Chapter 248 Just Be A Favor

After the Wu family's affairs were over, the county town returned to calm.

Mo Qingling sent the wooden box to the capital quickly, and as for how to deal with it, it was none of his business.

Then he found out about the iron ore publicly and recruited people to mine.

He also had the emperor's iron-making recipe in his hand, and the Ministry of Industry also sent two people to assist.

Soon, an iron-making workshop was built.

Shi Qingluo was wearing a sweater and a plush cape that Xiao Xianggong had specially ordered to make in Fucheng, still feeling cold.

She found that all braziers were used here.

With ordinary carbon, the fireworks are big and choking.

You have to use silver wire carbon to avoid this problem, but a brazier is also cold.

Putting a few more braziers, the cost is too high.

She hugged the stove and squeezed Xiao Hanzheng on the sofa, "Old Xiao, let's find Mo Qingling and get some iron."

Xiao Hanzheng looked at her from the book and asked, "Why do you get iron?"

Shi Qingluo replied: "The coal stove, the weather is getting colder and colder, it is suitable to use a brazier without a coal stove."

There are also low-carbon coal stoves, which are made of mud or bricks in the kitchen.

Iron sheet coal stoves and briquettes are not yet available.

She added: "When the time comes, I will make some briquettes, and the cost will be much cheaper than that of silver filament carbon."

"Let's build a coal stove like a table, and you can put it on the table when you read. It not only warms your whole body, but also your hands."

"I also need one in the kitchen. I eat it on the table stove. The food is always hot, and it won't get cold at once."

The more she thought about it, the more she felt that the coal stove and honeycomb should be taken out.

Not only is it convenient for them, but it can also benefit the people.

Xiao Hanzheng knew that the little daughter-in-law was afraid of the cold, looked at her bright eyes, put down the book and said with a smile: "Okay, then we will go to Mo Qingling now."

He was used to this kind of winter, and the little daughter-in-law was obviously not used to it.

What else can be done, only petting.

Shi Qingluo gave him a big kiss on the face, "You are the best!"

The two went to the county seat, and Mo Qingling was handling official business.

There was a brazier under the desk, wearing a wool sweater from Xiao Hanzheng and wool gloves on his hands.

The body and hands are much warmer than in previous years.

Hearing the two came to visit, he put down the official reception.

After sitting down and drinking a cup of hot tea, Shi Qingluo confessed and stated the direct purpose.

When Mo Qingling heard that she was going to use iron to build an iron-coal stove, Mo Qingling readily agreed.

He decided to be a good person to the end. "We have a lot of blacksmiths in the iron smelting workshop here. You can draw a drawing for the iron coal stove you want to build, and I will have someone build it for you."

Shi Qingluo smiled and nodded, "Okay, then I'll trouble you."

"I'll draw now."

So Mo Qingling asked someone to prepare a pen and paper, and Shi Qingluo drew the iron coal stove on a square table that he wanted.

She's kind of scrappy.

She handed the blueprint to Mo Qingling and asked, "I want to make a few more. Can I pay for iron?"

Mo Qingling laughed, "No, you offered a recipe for iron making, and the Ministry of Industry made it and found that this method doubled the amount of iron produced before, and the hardness and toughness of iron are higher."

"Doing a few iron stoves is nothing compared to your credit."

The weapons they made with newly refined iron were twice as hard as the previous iron, and the refined knives could cut the knives made of the same iron.

This made them very excited. Just reported it, I believe the emperor will be happy and excited.

This is all due to Shi Qingluo offering iron prescription.

Shi Qingluo saw that he was serious and not hypocritical, "Okay, then thank you!"

After reading the drawings, Mo Qingling sighed, "This kind of iron furnace requires too much iron, otherwise, if it is easy to use and saves coal, it can be promoted."

Shi Qingluo smiled and said, "This is what I want to create."

"This kind of stove can also be made into a simple iron stove, with a layer of iron on the outside and yellow mud on the inside, and a chimney is enough."

"You can still carry it around and walk around. If you don't have a chimney, you can always open the windows for ventilation."

"Using honeycomb coal can save coal and burn it."

Mo Qingling was going to quickly build the iron coal stove that Shi Qingluo said, "Okay, I will follow the people you said and let the people in the workshop try it out."

He asked again: "How to make briquettes?"

Shi Qingluo replied: "The point is to create a mold for pressing briquettes."

She used paper to draw the mold for making briquettes, and wrote the method of making briquettes on the paper.

"Just follow this."

It will be much more efficient if it is handed over to Mo Qingling.

She just waits and enjoys it.

She was going to accompany Xiao Xianggong to the Fucheng and the capital to take the exam after the new year, so she didn't want to open another workshop by herself.

Moreover, the government now has stricter control over iron, and a large amount of iron is needed to build a tin furnace.

Even if Mo Qingling agrees to provide it, after they leave Xiaxi Village, if someone takes advantage of it, or deliberately digs a trap, letting the people in the workshop secretly take the iron to make weapons or something, it will be troublesome.

Therefore, this kind of livelihood is more suitable for the government to do.

Mo Qingling put away the paper and said with a smile, "When the iron stove and briquettes are ready, I'll send someone to ask you to come and take a look."

Shi Qing nodded, "Thank you!"

Mo Qing

Ling thought of a question, "By the way, buy me some sweaters, sweaters, pantyhose and socks from your wool workshop."

He wanted to buy some to give to his grandfather and grandmother and others.

As for the relatives of the Hou Mansion, it's all down to the grandmother, the father, and the only thing left with him is face.

Shi Qingluo smiled and said, "No problem, do you want to transport it to the capital?"

Mo Qingling nodded, "Yes."

Shi Qingluo smiled and said, "Then can I trouble you to help transport some to the capital? I was planning to find a caravan in two days. If you want to transport, I will ask you for help."

The wool workshop has not been opened for a long time, and the sweaters and trousers knitted by everyone before are not exquisite.

So Shi Qingluo was not in a hurry to send it to the capital.

Now that the female workers have gotten started, they can create different patterns based on what she said.

In addition, Shi Qingluo thought about it, and sent a lot of extra sets to Xi Rong and others, so it took some time.

I was thinking about going to the county seat today, and by the way, I asked if there were any caravans entering Beijing recently.

Mo Qingling came to the door.

Mo Qingling laughed: "No problem."

"But I may have to delay here."

He shook the paper in his hand, "I'm going to wait for the briquettes and iron coal stoves to be made, and then send some to Beijing together."

The emperor naturally has a share, and then he wants to prepare a share for the queen, prince, grandmother and others.

Although the things that Shi Qingluo gave have not yet been built, he thinks it will not be bad, and it will definitely apply.

Hearing what he said, Shi Qingluo's eyes lit up, "Then I will also build a dozen sets of iron coal stoves to give away. You can help transport them together when the time comes."

It just so happened that she also wanted to send Xi Rong a few iron coal stoves.

This kind of table stove is sealed with an air outlet, and the briquettes do not burn so quickly, so it will not be too hot. It is just right to play mahjong on it, and the hands and feet are also warm.

"Just use these papers in your hand, how about it?"

Mo Qingling probably wouldn't ask for money.

Anyway, her family can't open such a workshop, it's better to be a smooth human relationship and exchange it with recipes.

The emperor can still make a note, which is quite cost-effective.

Mo Qingling nodded and smiled, "Okay, I will explain it in the memorial."

This thing must be known to the emperor, to cross the road.
