As soon as Silver Bone Charcoal was released, it really aroused the pursuit of high-ranking officials in the capital.

These days, ordinary people sleep on Kangs, while wealthy families use braziers to burn charcoal for warmth.

The quality of charcoal varies depending on the quality of the charcoal.

In the Ming Dynasty, which was in the Little Ice Age, the winter time could be said to be very long.

Along the Yellow River, heavy snow began to fall in some places in June.

Although Beijing is better off, with snow only starting to fall in August this year, by February or March next year, winter will still take up half of the year.

These dignitaries do not lack money, what they lack is enjoyment.

The cheap charcoal that Zhao Ce used before would emit some black smoke from time to time.

And there is still a smell in the house.

Nowadays, after the introduction of silver bone charcoal, it is smokeless and odorless, can even make the house warmer, and can burn longer.

Such silver bone charcoal was quickly loved by those high-ranking officials.

Su Cai'er even used her ingenuity to grind the spices they bought into powder and add them to the silver bone charcoal.

However, the spices were consumed too quickly. At Zhao Ce's suggestion, he mixed a lot of yellow mud into the spices and kneaded them into balls, so that they would burn longer.

The young couple worked together and managed to do a prosperous business in the first month after arriving in the capital.

Zhao Ce exchanged all the money for firewood.

The money that was settled every seven days was turned into a deposit to order firewood.

Silver bone charcoal and the Ye family cooperated to sell it, and the two of them split it 50-50.

However, the spice balls made by Su Cai'er were just consigned to the Ye family's shop, and all the money earned went to Zhao Ce's own family.

The spices themselves are expensive, so the pellets made from them are naturally not cheap.

But no matter how expensive it is, dignitaries in the capital still rush to buy it enthusiastically.

Although most of the money at home has now been replaced by raw materials such as firewood, Zhao Ce is not panicked at all.

After all, today is the day to settle the money.

During this time, all the charcoal that had been burned was put into the kiln one after another, and Zhao Ce also supplied a lot of goods.

After school, he first went to the Ye family's shop with Mr. Ye to check out the business.

It's already December and everyone is busy buying new year's goods.

There were a lot more people on the streets.

One of the most popular shops, which was packed with people, was naturally the Ye family's shop.

Mr. Ye and Zhao Ce stood outside holding umbrellas. Seeing the grand scene in the store, he smiled happily.

"Brother Lin, your silver bone charcoal is really a good thing."

"As soon as the goods are shipped every day, everyone will rush to buy them immediately."

"It would be nice if we could produce more."

Zhao Ce shook his head helplessly: "I also want to produce more, but my venues are all rented."

"The charcoal kiln is too small, making it more difficult to make."

Zhao Ce still used ordinary temporary charcoal kilns. If he had money to buy land in the capital, he would definitely build several large charcoal kilns.

The output of a large charcoal kiln can be several times that of this small charcoal kiln, so the output can naturally be greatly increased.

"site......"

Mr. Ye also had a headache.

Although their family has fields, they really don’t have any near the capital.

If we go outside the capital, it will be snowing heavily, and transporting charcoal will be difficult.

Mr. Ye said: "Well, let me ask for you to see if there is a suitable venue."

Zhao Ce nodded and was about to go to the dental shop to ask.

Those barren hills that others don't want or fields that can't grow crops are the best. They're cheap and suitable for him to burn charcoal.

After settling the money this time, Zhao Ce returned home with more than 3,000 taels of silver notes in his arms.

Among the more than three thousand taels of silver notes, there are still about a thousand taels obtained from selling the spice balls made by Su Cai'er.

"I didn't expect that I would be quite comfortable eating soft food."

Zhao Ce patted the banknotes in his arms: "Cai'er's spice balls sold better than expected, and the money earned almost exceeded my silver bone charcoal."

Earlier, the little girl said that her family had no money and she could sell jewelry to support the family.

After listening to Zhao Ce's words, he used some of the money left at home to buy a lot of spices in the capital to support his career.

This spice is paired with smokeless and odorless silver bone charcoal, so there is no need to worry about sales.

Su Cai'er is also talented. She can also mix various spices and make many balls with different flavors.

Zhao Ce held an umbrella and walked slowly.

After turning a corner, your home is in front of you.

Zhao Ce narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the people who were peeping in front of his house.

"Such an old house? Don't you think he is quite capable? He actually bought such an old house."

Zhu Houzhao muttered and glanced at the old exterior wall with some disgust.

Liu Jin, who was standing next to him, quickly complimented him: "No matter how capable I am, I am just an ordinary person. How can I compare with you?"

Zhu Houzhao didn't speak. He hid aside and observed for a while, but he didn't see anyone coming back. Instead, he was very cold.

He stamped his feet and said, "This guy has been studying under the Imperial Academy for so long and he hasn't come back yet."

"Hmph, it seems that he is not someone who concentrates on studying. He is also a playful person."

As he spoke, his eyes moved around.

Turning around, out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a person walking towards them.

Zhu Houzhao took a closer look and saw a young man holding an umbrella in his hand.

He was wearing the uniform of the Imperial College and a thick cloak. He was looking at the group of them with his starry eyes slightly squinted.

This person... Needless to say, is the person I am looking for today!

Zhu Houzhao quickly stood up straight and coughed lightly.

Zhao Ce looked at this group of people, even the guards behind him were wearing extraordinary clothes, and asked directly: "This is the Zhao Mansion, are you looking for the wrong place?"

Zhu Houzhao, who was standing in front, looked at Zhao Ce, who was standing in front of him with a calm face, and swallowed his saliva unconsciously.

Isn't this a scholar? Why is he so tall?

And in this winter, he doesn't look bulky even wearing a winter coat.

Holding an umbrella like this and standing tall and straight, you have a unique temperament.

Zhu Houzhao subconsciously stood up straight and found that he was still half a head shorter than him, so he raised his head slightly to look at him.

Zhu Houzhao didn't make a sound, and naturally those people behind him didn't make a sound either.

Zhao Ce glanced at the person opposite him in confusion, feeling that the way this person looked at him seemed a bit familiar.

"This young master?"

Zhu Houzhao came to his senses and took a few steps back so that he wouldn't have to lift his head too hard.

"Are you the Yong Xibo who came from afar?"

Zhao Ce nodded: "Not bad."

The man in front of me looks about the same age as Lun Mingyi.

However, he was taller than Lun Mingyi, and there was a flash of cunning on his face.

Judging by his attire and pomp, he must be the golden young master of some kind.

The young master seemed to become energetic immediately after seeing himself nodding.
