I am Wu Dalang, starting with Pan Jinlian

After the three of them chatted for a while, Wu Fei and Fatty Yao bid farewell, asking Liu Mei to inquire about the news as soon as possible.

"Brother Liu, please, if we find out who is in the charcoal business, we can take over."

"I have a way to solve the disadvantage of coal being inconvenient to carry and make it easier to burn!" Wu Fei continued.

"Really? You're not lying to me?" Liu Mei asked tremblingly.

"Ask Fatty Yao, when did I, Wu Fei, deceive someone?" Wu Fei said solemnly.

Seeing Fatty Yao nodded, Liu Mei was immediately excited. If there is such a method, it will be a disaster.

Human life is nothing more than basic necessities of life, and coal is closely related to food.

Especially now, firewood in Kaifeng Prefecture is becoming more and more scarce, and the price is also rising again and again.

Of course, this has a great relationship with Kaifeng's geographical location.

Kaifeng is located in a plain, close to the Yellow River, and most of the surrounding land has been reclaimed as farmland. There is no room for miscellaneous trees to survive. Naturally, the source of firewood is very problematic.

As the saying goes, firewood is not sold for a hundred miles, and millet is not sold for a thousand miles.

In other words, there is no firewood traffickers hundreds of miles away, and no grain traffickers thousands of miles away.

This has a lot to do with the mode of transportation. Originally, the price of firewood, that is, firewood, is very low. If it is shipped to Baili, the transportation cost will be very high, and it will lose money.

As for millet, that is, grain, although the price is higher than that of firewood, if it is sold thousands of miles away, the huge cost of transportation will offset the difference in grain prices in different regions, and there will be almost no profit.

Therefore, it is not cost-effective to transport firewood to Kaifeng from other places.

Among the fuels used in the Song Dynasty, in addition to firewood, that is charcoal, but charcoal also needs wood to be fired, plus transportation costs, the price is high, and it is not for ordinary people to enjoy.

At this time, Wu Fei said that he could use coal as fuel for cooking and heating, which is amazing.

With this method, it is impossible not to get rich!
This is why Liu Mei was so excited when she heard the news.

Liu Mei didn't ask about the specific method. It's not for nothing that he has been a businessman for so many years.

He knows that he has some unique skills, and he won't show them off easily!
He is already very satisfied to let Wu Fei make a fortune with him.

The three walked out of Liu's mansion together, and Liu Mei went to inquire about Charcoal.

And Wu Fei wanted to go back to his own home, but he didn't expect Fatty Yao to follow him, he was going to Wu Fei's house for a meal.

Fatty Yao has often visited Wu Fei's house since he and Wu Fei opened a barbecue shop.

Fatty Yao knew that Wu Fei was a snarky person, since he ate the stir-fried vegetables last time, Fatty Yao never got tired of eating them.

Seeing Fatty Yao following behind him with a shy face, Wu Fei felt very helpless.

However, he can only let him go, after all, he is already a friend, so he can't be beaten away, that would be a little bad.

When we arrived at Wufu, the sun was about to set, and the sky had become gray.

Wu Fei would certainly not easily cook by himself. Usually, Wu Liu and Yang Xiaoxiao were in charge of his meals, while the three daughters, Mihua, Miyue and Chen Yuanyuan, were responsible for serving the dishes for him.

As for serving him to eat, Wu Fei didn't ask them to do so, he still held the bowls and chopsticks by himself, so that he could eat comfortably.

He felt that it would be better if he kept his eating habits for 20 years.

This is one of the few memories he can keep!
I remember that in the past, Fatty Yao, who came to Wufu for the first time to eat, was not used to having to pick up the food by himself, and he had to put the food in his mouth by himself.

At that time, he suggested that Wu Fei's maid should feed him cloth vegetables.

Wu Fei became angry when he heard it, and shouted: "I love to eat, if you don't eat, get out!"

Fatty Yao immediately gave up, and never dared to mention the matter of asking the maid to pick up vegetables for him.

Fortunately, Fatty Yao didn't talk back, otherwise, Wu Fei would have dared to drive him away.

From then on, whenever Fatty Yao came to Wufu, he would obediently eat by himself, and never dared to babble anymore.

After drinking and eating, Fatty Yao leaned back on the chair, stroked his belly with both hands, and burped comfortably.

This dish is really delicious, no, Fatty Yao is full again if he is not careful.

Mi Hua and the others removed the bowls and chopsticks, then brought a pot of tea, and retreated.

Wu Fei sat on another Wu stool, chatting with Fatty Yao without saying a word.

Fatty Yao still didn't say goodbye, which made Wu Fei feel very depressed.

Just when Wu Fei got impatient and was about to drive him away, Wu An walked in.

"Master, Master Liu Mei Liu is here."

"Please!"

After finishing speaking, Wu Fei stood up, Fatty Yao also stood up, and the two went to meet Liu Mei together.

"Brother Liu, you have worked hard!"

Wu Fei and Fatty Yao let Liu Mei into the living room, and then they all sat down.

Liu Mei picked up a cup of tea on the table and drank it in one gulp.

After drinking, Wu Fei got up and poured him another glass.

Only then did Liu Mei speak.

"I'm dying of thirst. I've been asking for news, but I didn't bother to drink water!"

"Oh, it's been hard work, Brother Liu, have you eaten yet?" Wu Fei asked.

"It's too late!"

When Wu Fei heard this, he called Mi Hua.

"Go, let Wu Liu make an egg noodle, and stir-fry two special dishes by the way. I'll have a few drinks with Brother Liu."

Mi Hua responded, and went down to prepare meals.

Seeing Liu Mei's appearance, Wu Fei wisely didn't immediately ask him about the results of his inquiry.

Seeing that there were only three of them in the room, Liu Mei stood up, walked to the door, looked outside with her head, and then closed the door.

He thinks it's better to be careful about this matter, after all, if things are done well, there will be too much money involved.

"I'm sorry, I'm calling you Brother Wu and Brother Yao!" Liu Mei spoke.

"Yes!" It was Wu Fei's voice.

"No problem, Brother Liu, you can call me Fatty!" It was Fatty Yao's voice.

"Both brothers, I asked a lot of people. It is said that the Pan family owns a coal mine, and most of the products sold in Kaifeng Mansion are produced by their family!"

"The Pan family?" Wu Fei asked.

"Does Pan Mei know? After his death, the family was divided into several branches. He had a son named Pan Weiren, who was in the hands of this branch!" Liu Mei explained.

"Oh, it's his family! I know Pan Weiren's son, and we used to drink together a lot!" Fatty Yao interrupted.

"It's said that their family also makes firecrackers, and the Pan's grocery store is their branch of business, but it closed down a while ago!" Liu Mei said jokingly.

Wu Fei was a little embarrassed. The closing of Pan's grocery store was directly related to him.

After all, since his Wu's store had lighters, it has impacted the original fire book market.

The Pan family was so angry that they began to bribe two people to sue Wu Fei, and then they ended their hatred.

After the case was settled, Wu Fei lowered the price of lighters to the price of cabbage, and sent his servants to set up stalls near Pan's grocery store to sell them on the street, which successfully destroyed the Pan's grocery store.

"Hey, this is considered the enemy's property. I wonder if the news that we are going to buy coal mines has reached the ears of the Pan family, will they sell it to us?" Wu Fei asked this question.

When Liu Mei and Fatty Yao heard this, they immediately looked at each other in blank dismay.

Everyone has been busy for a long time. If the Pan family doesn't sell it by then, then the joke will be big.

This is thousands of taels of silver!Maybe more, this is a mountain of silver!

The faces of the three of them suddenly turned ugly.
