After three years of enfeoffment, the waste prince shocked the court boss

But only Lingnan people know what they are enjoying.

People in Lingnan who are tired all day can take a hot bath near their home for only a small amount of money.

Soak in the warm bath soup, the whole person can get the most complete relaxation.

Some people even go to the bath early in the morning to wait, just to be the first to enter the bath and be able to take the first sip of soup.

Of course, there are also those who like to come to the bath after a tiring day, soaking in the soup that has been soaked for a day and the color of the soup has become cloudy.

This bath soup is known as thick soup, and in the morning it is clear soup.

After soaking in the bath soup, Lingnan people also like to rub their backs.

You only need to pay a small fee, and the master in the bath will use a bath ball made of loofah to decontaminate the whole body.

Then there is another knock on the back, and the whole procedure is down, that is really a sad day for the gods.

Many businessmen who came to Lingnan from other places no longer go to those big restaurants.

Go to various special baths to enjoy.

Whether talking about business or meeting friends, it has become a major feature of Lingnan to invite people to the bathhouse to soak in the hot spring pool.

Many big deals are negotiated in the misty Tangchi.

This characteristic was of course known to Emperor Qian.

As the emperor of Daqian, there is something in this world that Emperor Qian can't enjoy.

It was also Emperor Qian who sent someone to invite a builder from Lingnan to build a luxurious soup pool in the immediate harem.

When Li Su knew that his father was also good at it, he specially sent several master bath masters.

This move again became a reason for ministers to reprimand him.

However, as the parties involved, it is good that Emperor Qian likes it. It is rare for the monarch and his son to have a common hobby, and the two have a tacit understanding.

There has been a lot of noise in the court recently because of the matter of King An and Li Su.

Many people were accusing Li Su of harming the emperor. After this was reprimanded by Emperor Qian, a group of people began to accuse Li Su of hiding evil intentions and buying useless abandoned coal mines everywhere. There must be ulterior secrets.

Maybe it was used by Tibetan soldiers.

For this kind of nonsense, Emperor Qian wanted to refute it, but he watched the ministers speak with certainty.

Presenting the facts and telling history was also disturbed by the noise, so he simply ordered An Wang Li Su to publicly explain why he wanted to buy the abandoned mine.

This move was just to comfort the princes of the Manchu Dynasty, but Li Su would naturally not be used to them, and soon there were countermeasures.

Li Su immediately stopped the acquisition of coal mines.

The coal mine owner, who was waiting for Li Su to start a carnival, was dumbfounded.

Wang An doesn't buy coal mines, so what do they get rich with?

So from coal mine owners to chaebols, to aristocratic families, to ministers, they progressed layer by layer.

In the end, the memorial strongly urging King An of Lingnan to continue to acquire coal mines was submitted to Emperor Qian's case.

The minister who was still resisting Li Su's acquisition of the coal mine just now stopped talking.

Being touched by their own interests, these people no longer said that Wang An harbored evil intentions, and they all asked An Wang to buy the coal mine again.

Never mention the past again.

Chapter 109

Although many people hope that Anwang will continue to acquire coal mines, especially a large number of abandoned coal mines.

But people are still laughing at King An's prodigal.

Of the several million taels of silver, more than half of the ones bought were mines filled with waste water.

Those old mines that have been abandoned for many years may still have coal mines underneath.

However, the water seepage is serious, and there is no chance of mining.

Regarding the ridicule of these people, Li Su just wanted to say, please wait and see.

As soon as the steam engine was successfully developed, Li Su had already asked people to study the application of the steam engine.

Because Lingnan is located on the coast and there are many swamps and wetlands, the first application is the steam pump.

This is the reason why Li Su dared to purchase a large amount of water to dispose of old mines.

With the steam pump, the water in those abandoned mines can be drained quickly, and the abandoned mines can also be rejuvenated.

All of this was done quietly by Li Su. When those people were still mocking him, they didn't know that Li Su had already ordered people to start draining the abandoned mine.

At the present rate, by the time the railroad opens, he will have mountains of coal waiting to be shipped.

At that time, the continuous stream of coal will become the energy source of the steam engine, forming a perfect cycle.

At the same time, buying so many coal mines is also Li Su's planning for his own plan.

With the advent of the era of steam visible to the naked eye, he must not be constrained by energy.

Not to mention that now I have started to build iron-clad warships.

That kind of sea giant is also powered by a steam engine. Even if the whistle is sounded once, it is a huge amount of energy.

In order to prevent himself from falling into a situation where there is no coal to burn, Li Su began to purchase coal mines.

And these things are not enough for outsiders.

Capital City, Imperial Palace Chengyun Hall.

"Your Majesty, King An is fooling the people and competing for profit with the people!"

No matter how well Li Su hid it, when the steam pump started repairing the mine, it was still discovered by people.

When the mine owners who sold the abandoned coal mine knew that they had sold a mine that could still produce coal at a low price, they all gritted their teeth and accused An Wang of deceiving themselves.

Who would have thought that in addition to running trains, steam engines could also be used to pump water.

Those aristocratic families did not expect that the abandoned coal mines on their own land would have a chance to be revitalized.

Those abandoned mines were all money, so they were bought cheaply by King An!

So the court once again set off a quarrel with King An.

Many ministers felt that Wang An concealed that he was able to turn the abandoned mine into treasure, which was a deception and a sign of dishonesty.

As a grand prince and feudal lord, doing so would lose the face of the royal family.

Ask An Wang to return the abandoned mine to those mine owners immediately.

Most of the ministers who said this were descendants of aristocratic families, and they themselves had vested interests.

Now that he found that his interests had been harmed, he began to reprimand Li Su again.

Sitting on the dragon chair, Emperor Qian watched the performance of several ministers below, with a cold light in his eyes.

These people really think that the emperor is a fool.

Previously, Wang An was accused of buying the mine for the purpose of hiding soldiers, and he was suspected of conspiring to rebel.

When Wang An stopped buying and these people had nothing to gain, they turned around and asked Wang An to continue buying.

Now seeing that Wang An can gain benefits in the abandoned mine, it is still these people who stand up again and demand that Wang An return the benefits to them.

"Hahahaha!"

"You guys, do you think I'm easy to fool?"

"Do you think I can't move you!"

In the carrying hall, the roar of Emperor Qian resounded.

All the courtiers who were noisy just now stopped making a sound.

What they did just now was all to test, to test Emperor Qian's tolerance for King An and his tolerance for himself and others.

Just like before, they swayed Qiandi's thoughts, making it impossible for King An to acquire the mine.

If Emperor Qian's reaction is not violent, they can get a lot of benefits from it.

If Emperor Qian is really angry, it's a big deal that they don't mention it anymore.

In fact, being above the court is often the same as doing business.

Some things can be negotiated and negotiated, and some things depend on the attitude of the other party. If you really can't talk about it, you have to hold your nose and admit it.

Now those ministers are going to admit it.

It's just that they wanted to admit it, but Emperor Qian didn't want to just let him go.

"You don't want mines, you don't want coal."

"I will fulfill you today."

"Wang Quan, whoever spoke up just now, write it down."

"Deprive them of their official positions and let them guard the mine and transport coal to my yard."

"Without my will, no one is allowed to let them go."

No one expected that Emperor Qian would explode at such a time.

The few ministers who had been arguing fiercely just now turned pale and shouted for Emperor Qian to spare his life.

A carnival about coal mines.

King An and Li Su got what they wanted, the mine owners got what they wanted, and Emperor Qian got what he wanted.

On the Beijing Stock Exchange, Lingnan stocks skyrocketed.

Imperial coal mine stocks also rose sharply.

All stocks involved in this carnival have risen to varying degrees.

Before the carnival started, Emperor Qian and Li Su, who already knew the outcome, undoubtedly became the biggest winners.

Yes, Li Su sent a letter to Emperor Qian in advance, and Emperor Qian profited a lot from this carnival of coal.

Emperor Qian got the cash from the stock market, and Li Su got countless coals.

In the future, there is no need to worry about the lack of coal available in Lingnan.

Only those aristocratic chaebols felt that they had suffered heavy losses in this carnival.

Those abandoned mines belonged to them, and they only had a small amount of money when they were sold to Li Su.

Now I can only watch Li Su use the steam pump to drain the water inside, and then hire a large number of miners to mine.

Carloads of coal are piled up along the railway, and every station has a coal mountain.

With the full power of the coal steam engine, the construction of railway laying was also speeded up virtually.

Lingnan Mansion has made a lot of money from this wave of coal mine acquisitions.

Whether it is industrial construction in the prefecture or railway laying, with a lot of money, a large number of workers can be recruited.

People in all state capitals along the railway have enjoyed this wave of dividends.

When the aristocratic family cursed King An for competing with the people for profit.

The common people were grateful for the wealth that King An brought to him.

Without Wang An's railway construction and An Wang's coal mines, where would these people make so much money.

Now all the people in Dagan realized that any industry that could be related to An Wang was a profitable business.

Before you know it, the Spring Festival has passed, and the breath of early spring warms the earth.

After the last winter snow, the earth returns to spring and a new year of spring plowing is ushered in.

At this time, the world is peaceful, there is no disaster or disease, and the border is peaceful.

The beginning of this year heralds a wonderful birth, and it all started in Lingnan.
