Chapter 248 Reward
After Lu An dealt with Wang Hao, he asked the steward to take him away, but Shen Qingqian and his sister and Chen Er stayed.
"Sixth Miss, you just said that Mr. Qin can also use this coal to forge weapons," Lu An asked straight to the point.
Shen Qingqian nodded, "Yes, using coal as fuel, the weapons forged are better than charcoal and ordinary firewood."
In modern times, coal is known as "black gold" and "food of industry" and is one of the main energy sources used by humans after the 18th century.
Lu An pondered for a moment, then bowed to Shen Qingqian and said, "Thank you, Sixth Miss, for solving a big problem for the Ebei Army."
Old Qin is the guarantee of external weapons for the Hubei-Northern Army. In the winter, a large amount of firewood is needed to keep warm in Hubei-Northern. In previous years, many elderly people and children would freeze to death in the entire Hubei-Northern. If coal can really be used for burning and forging, then both the Hubei-Northern Army and the people of Hubei-Northern will benefit.
Because there are many places in northern Hubei where coal is known to have been mined.
"You're too polite, Chief Justice Lu." Shen Qingqian said politely, but did not say that she didn't want a reward.
Knowledge is the primary productive force. The information in her head is the result of the information gap between Lu An and others. Why doesn't she want it?
"I will report this matter to the general, and someone should be sent to mine it soon. I will personally instruct the Shen family on how much to use at that time." Lu An pondered.
This was discovered by Shen Qingqian, and it was she who told the Shen family the function of coal, so naturally the Shen family should be rewarded.
Shen Qingqian and his sister hurriedly thanked him, and then Shen Qingqian said, "Most of the coal is buried underground. I would also like to ask Chief Lu to remind the general to pay attention to the surrounding environment when mining, to minimize damage to the environment, and to pay attention to landslides when mining."
She shared the relevant safety knowledge she remembered.
Lu An nodded, "I will report this to the general."
A group of people came out from Lu An's place. Shen Yong put his arm around Chen Er's shoulder and asked with a smile, "Chen Er, why are you working so hard today?"
Chen Er used to look down on the Shen family, but today he was fighting with Wang Hao completely over the Shen family's affairs, which made Shen Yong feel a little closer to Chen Er.
"I just can't stand Wang Hao taking the credit for Sixth Miss's work." Chen Er's tanned face turned slightly red, and he spoke a little unsteadily.
When Shen Yong heard this, he immediately pushed him away, stared at him fiercely and asked, "What do you mean? Are you talking about my sixth sister?"
"No, no, absolutely not!" Chen Er quickly waved his hands and said anxiously, "I, I just wanted to ask Miss Six to teach me how to make something!"
Shen Qingqian was walking behind them and asked in surprise when she heard this, "Brother Chen wants me to teach you how to make something, but I don't know how to do anything!"
In the past, she was only responsible for drawing the pictures, and she was not the one who did the actual work.
Chen Er scratched his head, organized his words, and then looked at Shen Qingqian sincerely and said, "Sixth Miss, I have thought carefully about what you said to me last time. I really want to learn how to make what I think of in my mind come true, but..."
He lowered his head in embarrassment. "But I didn't study much before. Even if I had an idea, I didn't know how to draw it, let alone how to make it, so..."
Shen Qingqian was a little embarrassed. She had long forgotten what she had said to Chen Er.
But he helped this time, and during this period of time, Old Lady Chen has always followed the lead of the Shen family. Many things can only be carried out smoothly under the promotion of Old Lady Chen. Since Chen Er is willing to learn, she can help.
"Brother Chen, I'm sorry, I really can't help you with this." Shen Qingqian shook her head. Seeing Chen Er's disappointed face, she smiled again, "But I can recommend you to Mr. Qin."
