Datang: I was exposed by Princess Changle

He didn't know the specific source of statistics very clearly, he just knew a rough figure and reported it to Lin Xuan.

Although there was a history of coal burning in the Southern and Northern Dynasties, most people used charcoal for burning because of the structure of the furnace and carbon monoxide poisoning caused by insufficient combustion.

So now very little attention is paid to the development of coal.

The current technology is insufficient, and the coal is buried deep underground. It is uncertain when a landslide will occur, resulting in a low coal production in the entire Datang.

"At present, our Ministry of Industry and our Lantian County use more for iron smelting."

The black-faced man was very familiar with these things, and said to Lin Xuan proudly.

Hearing this, Lin Xuan's brows gradually frowned.

Regarding power generation, the best way now is thermal power generation.

Although it pollutes the environment, it will be improved soon with the further development of industry.

Lin Xuan does not want to repeat the same mistakes as Hyundai.

How would this work without coal?

"Feihu, I will write you a few blueprints tomorrow to explain, and you immediately start mining coal vigorously. These are important raw materials for my power generation."

Lin Xuan said to Feihu with a serious face.

Feihu said yes all the time, saying that he would definitely follow up personally, and there would be no dirty things that Lin Xuan didn't want to see.

This matter has come to an end. At the current speed, within half a month, a generator for hydroelectric power generation will be available, and then it will be time for real power generation.

-

Lin Xuan returned to the mansion amidst the voices of everyone sending him off, and immediately summoned Gongsun Xin to discuss the matter.

Although it was getting late, Gongsun Xin rushed to Lin Xuan's study immediately after hearing Lin Xuan's call.

As soon as Gongsun Xin entered, Lin Xuan pointed to the chair in front of him and told him to sit down.

This chair is still a chair made according to Lin Xuan's preferences. In the era when this kind of chair was not popular, it was a very rare thing.

"Mr. Gongsun, how do the common people spend the early spring when it is warm and cold?"

Lin Xuan didn't say anything polite, and asked straight to the point.

Like Datang: I was exposed by Princess Changle, please bookmark it: () Datang: I was exposed by Princess Changle, and the update speed is the fastest.

Chapter 227 Stove Cotton, Heating Material!

"After early spring?"

Gongsun Xin was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and then he talked about the way for the people to spend the hot and cold early spring.

During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the yield of cotton was very low due to the variety.

Moreover, there are spikes all over the cotton, plus the problem of insect infestation.

Wheat was not grown, and corn came from real. Basically, no one in the Tang Dynasty grew cotton.

This has just led to the problem that it is very difficult for ordinary people to survive the cold weather.

The only way to resist the cold is to strengthen the walls and windows, or put something like sheepskin in the clothes.

In this era when there were no quilts or cotton jackets, and people didn't dare to burn charcoal in the house, not to mention the common people, even the princes and nobles were quite uncomfortable.

The nobles are better off in comparison, they don't go out very much, and they still have spare money to buy leather of various animals, but the common people live a difficult life, starving and freezing.

At the end, Gongsun Xin sighed helplessly and shook his head.

Every year throughout the Tang Dynasty, there are ordinary people who cannot withstand the cold weather.

"Young master, do you have any good ideas?"

Gongsun Xin looked at Lin Xuan expectantly and asked.

The Mr. Lin in front of him is not only the best in martial arts and martial arts, but also knows all kinds of strange and advanced things.

Now that he was called here and asked about this matter out of the blue, it is very likely that there is a way to deal with it.

Lin Xuan nodded, admitting that he did have a solution.

But it is still the February season with chilly spring, so cotton is not suitable for planting now.

It's not too late to plant seeds again in March and April when the weather gets warmer.

Lin Xuan thought about it, it would be better to remodel the stoves in ordinary people's homes first.

"Just take a look."

Lin Xuan handed Gongsun Xin a piece of paper with some square frames drawn on it, which together form a stove that can be used for heating.

"Thank you sir."

Gongsun Xin took it with a look of excitement, looking at the drawings drawn on it, his brain kept thinking.

"Fire it with charcoal, send its heat to the kang or into the room, and use the chimney to send out the poisonous gas. It's a good way, a good way!"

"My son is worthy of being an expert, to think of such a brilliant idea!"

Gongsun Xin nodded while watching. The more he watched, the more excited he became, and he clapped his hands in the end!

But Lin Xuan said lightly: "This is just a stopgap measure, the charcoal used in the stove is really too much."

"Being able to produce cotton as soon as possible is the long-term solution to the cold weather."

As soon as this word comes out.

Gongsun Xin was dumbfounded!

cotton? !

what?

Unheard of!

It seems that Lin Xuan will invent something new soon!

Gongsun Xin followed with an excited look of anticipation!

Lin Xuan said lightly that there was no rush to plant cotton, and it was already getting late, so he asked the excited Gongsun Xin to go back to his room to rest.
