Chapter 499 500 briquettes
Li Yu didn't respond. In her heart, she never felt that it was because of her ability and good vision. She always felt that she could be today, benefited from the knowledge of her previous life, and the teaching and training in the army. Just an ordinary woman.
Back to Zhuangzi, Xinghua and a few people had already planted the sweet potato seedlings and sprinkled the grass and tree ash.
After dinner, Chu Fu said to Li Yu: "Mrs. Li, I will go back to Beijing first, and find that rich businessman to settle the matter of Zhuangzi for you."
"Okay," Li Yu thought about it and urged again, "Mr. Chu, if he has already taken action, there is no need to spend any more effort."
Chu Fu listened to Li Yu's words and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'm measured."
Li Yu sent Chu Fu away, went back and put the coals into the stove, watching the residual fire in the stove slowly ignite the coals, and the coals ignited blue flames.
Although he did not understand coal, Li Yu felt that this coal should be high-quality coal based on the color of the flame when he used a gas stove in his previous life.
Xinghua looked at Li Yu curiously, "Madam, what did you put in the stove? How could it burn like firewood."
"I saw that it was similar to the charcoal we burned, so I picked it up and tried it. I didn't expect it to really burn like charcoal."
Li Yu went back to his house and recalled how he drew a coal stove and a briquettes mold machine, as well as iron tongs for holding coal and a coal stove cover, and went out with the drawings and handed them over to Jixiang.
Jixiang looked at the drawing and felt a bit like a red clay stove, but it was much bigger than a small red clay stove.
"Madam, what is this, what's the use?"
"You'll know when it's done," Li Yu pointed to the drawing. "Back to Kyoto, take this to the brick kiln and let him burn a few according to the drawing, and tell him to put three irons at the bottom. bar, install a round iron cylinder here, and the iron cylinder is made according to the size I require."
Jixiang saw that Li Yu still had a blueprint in his hand, "How did you do this?"
"This is going to be made at the blacksmith shop, you go to set the car and we will go back and talk about it."
Jixiang left, and Li Yu explained the precautions for planting sweet potato seedlings to Haitang again. After Haitang was sure to remember it, he left Wangjiaao with someone.
After returning to the capital, Li Yu said to Jixiang: "I found a kind of black stone like charcoal in the back mountain. I took it back and tried it, and it ignited quickly in the stove. It should be said by my master. Something called coal."
Li Yu felt that it was fortunate that he had found this master for himself, otherwise these things would be difficult to explain.
Jixiang thought for a while, "Coal! Is it the same kind of carbon as charcoal?"
Jixiang went to find someone to burn a coal stove. Li Yu saw the two children, and went out to find a blacksmith shop with a wide variety of goods and walked in.
The blacksmith was busy beating with his hammer, Xinghua stepped forward and shouted, "Uncle, my wife wants to customize something."
The blacksmith put down his hammer and turned around, "Okay! Little girl, what kind of thing does your wife want to customize?"
Li Yu handed the drawing to the blacksmith, and the blacksmith looked at it for a while, then pointed to it and asked, "Excuse me, Madam, are the iron rods in the iron cylinder and the small iron rods in the round iron cylinder connected to each other? together?"
Li Yu nodded and pointed to the drawing to explain, "This is a fixed handle, the long iron rod and the small iron rod are connected to this disc, the long iron rod needs to have a telescopic function, and the other end is connected to a two An inch and a half round iron cylinder, twelve half-inch iron rods are connected in the round iron cylinder, and the twelve iron rods are connected to a disc, can be twitched and pressed out, can you understand how it is done?"
"Understood," the blacksmith pointed to the lid of the coal stove, "what is this thing for?"
"Seven or eight of these are made separately, and the above is rotatable for easy adjustment. There are also iron pliers like this, which can be made separately."
The blacksmith nodded and pointed to the briquettes mold machine, "I need to figure out how to make this thing. It will be delivered in three days at the latest. It is relatively waste to make this thing, and it will cost forty taels of silver in total."
Li Yu nodded, "Okay, I'll give you the deposit first, and I'll have someone pick it up in three days."
After was settled, Li Yu and Xinghua got in the car and walked back. As soon as they arrived at the door of the house, they saw Chu Fu's carriage, which came from the opposite side and stopped at the door.
Chu Fu got out of the car with a thin middle-aged man, and smiled at Li Yu: "Mrs. Li, this is Boss Su, and he wants to sell that Zhuangzi."
Boss Su bowed to Li Yu and saluted, "Caomin Su Qiangui greets Mrs. Li."
Li Yu smiled lightly, "Boss Su is polite."
Li Yu took Chu Fu and Su Qiangui to the front hall, Su Qiangui said: "Mrs. Li, Caomin spent nearly 6,000 taels of silver when buying Zhuangzi from the old lady of the Zhou family. This is the land deed. Take it."
It turned out that he came to give Zhuangzi to himself, there is no free thing in the world, Li Yu pretended to not understand and smiled: "Boss Su, I have inquired about it, Zhuangzi like that is worth more than 8,000 taels, I and I Director Chu said that it will be given to you at the market price, so you don't have to lower the price on purpose."
Su Qiangui turned to look at Chu Fu, "Mr. Chu, look..."
Chu Fu looked at Su Qiangui and smiled and said, "Boss Su, just do as Mrs. Li wants."
Su Qiangui saw this, so he had to stand up and salute the two of them one by one, "Yes, thank you Mrs. Li and Director Chu."
Chu Fu saw that the two families were on good terms, so he said goodbye and left. Li Yu asked Zhou Bo and Su Qiangui to go to the yamen to complete the formalities.
Uncle Zhou came back with the title deed and house deed, and said excitedly to Li Yu: "Madam, the master grew up there when he was a child. There is a hot spring in the village, which is good for people. The master was weak when he was a child. Mr. Wen said that the hot spring is good for people. In good health, the old man thought of a way to buy this village. Thank you madam! You have bought the village bought by the old man again."
"Uncle Zhou, you really are, that's my family too!" Li Yu also felt very happy, "Uncle Zhou, go to Zhuangzi to see if there is anything that needs repairing, wait for the master to come back, give him a surprise!"
"Okay, I'll take a look tomorrow," Zhou Bo happily replied.
The next day, Zhou Bo went to Zhuangzi, and Jixiang went to the blacksmith shop to retrieve the briquettes mold machine, as well as the tongs and the lid of the coal stove.
Li Yu picked up the briquettes mold machine and fiddled with it for a few times, then nodded with satisfaction, "Yes, this master is very good at craftsmanship."
Jixiang and Xiao Loach looked at those things strangely.
Jixiang fiddled a few times, "Madam, what is this for?"
"Go and see if the coal stove is well fired, then go to the back mountain of Wangjia'ao, where I dug a pit, dig a carload of those black stones, and dig a few boxes of clay to bring back, and you'll know when the time comes. already."
"That thing is called a coal stove?" Jixiang seemed to understand, "Okay, I'll go right now."
"Madam, we want to go with Uncle Xiang."
Li Yu waved his hand, "Go!"
"Thank you madam." The little loachs also ran with Jixiang.
