Xianyang City, a farmhouse in the suburbs.

The first snow has fallen in Xianyang. Although there is no snow on the ground yet, the cold wind can really blow into the bones.

"Mom, I'm cold, let's burn the fire!" A little girl, her delicate little face was red from cold, and she looked at a young woman pitifully.

"Oh, no, it rained for two days, and the branches outside were wet and couldn't be lit. The price of charcoal has increased by 30% in recent days. We still need to use it for cooking!" Hearing this, the woman shook her head and sighed.

"Wow wow wow wow..." The idea of ​​burning fire to keep warm was dashed, and the little girl burst into tears.

"Why are you, your child so ignorant?" Seeing the little girl crying loudly, the woman felt annoyed and couldn't help but raise her hand and slap her a few times.

These slaps fell, not only did the little girl stop her mouth, but she cried even louder.

Finally, when the young woman thought that her daughter was crying because of her coldness, she hit her. The woman's anger subsided a little, and she felt guilty and blamed herself. The young woman couldn't help but cry out!

Looking at her mother crying with tears in her eyes, the little girl stopped talking and felt a little at a loss.

With a creak, the wooden door of the room was pushed open.

A young man in his twenties was carrying a big bag on his back and a honeycomb coal stove in his hand.

"Why are you two crying?" Seeing the wife and children crying with their heads in their arms, the man was stunned.

"It's nothing, cry and warm it up!" The woman shook her head and replied.

Before the man could continue to ask questions, looking at the things on the man's back and hands, the woman asked in surprise: "What is this?"

"Hehehe, this is a good thing, this is called a honeycomb coal stove!"

The woman's trick to change the topic was very useful. The man laughed out loud when he heard this, and then took down the honeycomb coal stove he was holding.

The bag on his back opened, and there were more than twenty black honeycomb coals inside.

"What is this for?" the mother and the mother came forward and asked curiously.

"This is for sale in Xianyang City today, for burning fire, I'll teach you!"

"First use wood to burn a honeycomb coal, and then put it into the stove. Our stove can stack three coals at the same time!"

"When the bottom one is burned out, take out the cinder and throw it away, and then change it to the top!"

"When you don't use it, cover the lid below without turning off the heat. The coal will burn very slowly. You can put a pot of water on it! Of course, the weather is so cold now that it can be used to warm it up!"

"When you are cooking, open the lid and the coal will be burned vigorously. You can cook and cook!"

When I bought it, I had already learned it and used it like this. The man explained it to the woman as he learned it in Xianyang City!

"This is not necessary to turn off the heat when you don't cook? Then, will it burn very quickly!" the woman asked hesitantly.

"No, we can use three honeycomb coal for about one day!" the man shook his head and said.

"Then, then this is not cheap, right?" The woman asked again after hesitating for a while.

When you don’t cook, the stove doesn’t need to be extinguished. Wouldn’t it mean you can keep burning the fire in the future?

But, burn every day, never stops? This money is consumed...

"Don't worry, this honeycomb coal is very cheap, you can buy ten ones at a time!" the man said with a smile.

"So cheap!? This is much cheaper than charcoal!" The woman said in surprise and joy when she heard the price of honeycomb coal was so cheap!

"Yes, we will use this in the future. We can not only boil water and cook, but also sit by the stove to keep warm when we are not bad!" the man nodded and said.

"Oh, if this honeycomb coal appeared a few years ago, our mother wouldn't have frozen to death in the middle of the night because she was reluctant to burn charcoal!" The woman thought of the tragedy of the past few years, and couldn't help but feel sad.

"Okay, isn't this a happy thing? Why are you crying? I heard that this honeycomb coal was invented by the prince. With this, we will no longer be afraid of being frozen!" The man also sighed a lot.

...

The same situation continues to happen in Xianyang City and even in the Qin Dynasty!

Although wholesale costs fifteen yuan per yuan and retail costs ten yuan per yuan, excluding labor, transportation costs, etc., the profits of merchants are not particularly considerable.

However, it is impossible to withstand the demand for honeycomb coal this winter!

The biggest advantage of honeycomb coal is not only that it is cheap and easy to use, but also that the furnace does not need to be extinguished when it is not fired.

Just cover the bottom cover to slow down the combustion.

Therefore, you can sit by the stove in winter to warm up, and you don’t have to worry about increasing consumption.

In a blink of an eye, half a month passed and the weather became colder and colder.

However, with the large-scale production and sales of honeycomb coal, although not every household can use it, the coverage is getting wider and wider!

And such a situation naturally made Fusu's fame even more prosperous!

"Crown Prince, news came from Yumen Pass Market that the Huns were bitter and cold. If they transported honeycomb coal to the Huns, they would definitely be able to reap a lot of wealth!"

At Yichun Palace, Fusu and Xiao He were talking about the recent topic of honeycomb coal, and Xiao He said.

"Well, this is indeed a great opportunity to harvest the Huns. However, even domestic demand is not enough now, so how can we talk about foreign trade to harvest the Huns?" Fusu nodded first and shook his head.

Yes, the honeycomb coal is far from large enough to supply the 36 counties of the Qin Dynasty. Why are you busy making money from the Huns?

"What the prince said is very much!" Xiao He nodded.

The prince's honeycomb coal had never thought of making money, and it was all for the people of the Qin Dynasty to provide heating and avoid freezing to death.

...

On the other side, Han Xin was sitting by a stove, reading military books. The honeycomb coal next to him opened the lid. The burning fire could see the flames swaying and there was no cold at all.

"This honeycomb coal is such a good thing!" Han Xin put down the military book in his hand, rested his mind, and looked at the honeycomb coal beside him, and Han Xin murmured in his heart.

It seems that the furnace and honeycomb coal were invented by Prince Fusu?

Moreover, is this honeycomb coal extremely cheap? It even uses it for many ordinary people?

"Crown Prince Fusu is indeed a person who cares about the people. If he wants, this honeycomb coal will be enough to make him a fortune, but he didn't do this..."

The small honeycomb coal made Han Xin think in his heart.

In this way, is it really right to oppose Qin?

If they really rebel against Qin, can these princes and nobles left over from the six kingdoms do better than Prince Fusu?

For the first time, Han Xin questioned Zhang Liang and others' thoughts on anti-Qin!

Originally, I came here with Zhang Liang, but I really had no place to go. It would be better if I could have a place to show my abilities!

After coming here and showing his ability in military tactics, the princes and nobles left by the six kingdoms attached great importance to themselves, which made their fame rise.

This made Han Xin very grateful to them!

However, those gratitudes and so on are based on personal standpoints.

Now, looking at this small honeycomb coal, thinking of Prince Fusu's thoughts of considering the poor people in the world, Han Xin was considering the overall situation of the world, and the anti-Qin thoughts instilled in himself by Zhang Liang and others began to shake.

"Mr. Han, someone outside asked for a meeting, saying that he was an acquaintance in Huaiyin County, Sishui County..."
