After Lu An dealt with Wang Hao, he asked the steward to take him away, but the Shen Qingqian brothers and sisters and Chen Er stayed behind.
"Miss Six, did you just say that Mr. Qin can use this coal to make 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."
Coal is known as "black gold" and "industrial food" in modern times. It is one of the main energy sources used by humans after the 18th century.
Lu An pondered for a moment, then cupped his hands to Shen Qingqian and said, "Thank you Miss Six for solving a big problem for the Northern Hubei Army."
Mr. Qin's side is the guarantee for the external weapons of the Northern Hubei Army, and the winter in Northern Hubei requires a lot of firewood for heating. In previous years, many elderly and children would freeze to death in Northern Hubei. If coal can really be used for burning and forging, then whether it is Hubei Both the Northern Army and the people of northern Hubei will benefit.
Because there are many known places in northern Hubei where coal has been dug.
"You're welcome, Chief Lu." Shen Qingqian said politely, but did not say that no reward would be needed.
Knowledge is the primary productive force. The things in her mind were obtained from the information gap between Lu An and others. Why wouldn't she want it?
"I will report this matter to the general, and people will be mined soon. At that time, I will personally explain the amount used by the Shen family." Lu An said thoughtfully.
Shen Qingqian discovered this, and she was the one who informed the Shen family about the role of coal. Naturally, the Shen family should be rewarded.
Shen Qingqian's brother and sister quickly thanked him, and then Shen Qingqian said: "Most coal is buried underground. I would also like to ask Chief Lu to remind the general that when mining, pay attention to the surrounding environment and minimize damage to the environment. Also, pay attention to landslides when mining... …”
She shared the relevant safety knowledge she remembered.
Lu An nodded, "I will report it to the general as well."
A group of people came out of Lu An's place. Shen Yong put his arm on 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 fought fiercely with Wang Hao over the Shen family's affairs, which made Shen Yong feel somewhat close to Chen Er.
"I...I just can't bear to see Wang Hao pretending to take the credit of the sixth girl." Chen Er's face was slightly red due to the sunburn, and he felt a little awkward when he spoke.
When Shen Yong heard this, she immediately pushed him away, stared at him fiercely and asked, "What do you mean? It's not for my sixth sister..."
"No, no, absolutely not!" Chen Er quickly waved his hands and said hurriedly, "I, I just, just want to... I want to ask Miss Six to teach me how to make things!"
Shen Qingqian walked behind them and asked in surprise when he heard this, "Brother Chen wants me to teach you how to make something? But I don't know what to do!"
In the previous work, she was only responsible for drawing, and she was not the one doing the work.
Chen Er scratched his head, organized his words, and then looked at Shen Qingqian sincerely and said: "Miss Six, I thought about what you said to me last time when I went back. I really want to learn how to put the thoughts in my mind Things are made, but..."
He lowered his head in embarrassment, "But I didn't study much before. Even if I have ideas, I don't know how to draw pictures, let alone make things, 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 Mrs. Chen has always looked after the Shen family. Many things can go smoothly only with the help of Old Mrs. Chen. Since Chen Er is interested in learning, she can help.
"Brother Chen, I'm sorry, I really can't help you with this," Shen Qingqian shook her head, looking at Chen Er's disappointed face, she smiled again, "But I can recommend you to Mr. Qin."
