Datang: Time travel in two months, wait online, hurry up!

That's right, the next business he mentioned is related to coal.

It is honeycomb!

PS: The second update!Of.

Chapter 128 Solve the livelihood!Free coal stove and tongs!

That's right, Li Ke deliberately reserved [-]% of the shares!

It's specially reserved for Li Shimin!

He did this mainly for two reasons.

First, Li Shimin acquiesced in buying coal mines everywhere at low prices!

You must know that these coal mines were originally owned by Datang!

But he bought it in large quantities at a low price and used it to earn profits.

If Li Shimin is more realistic, he probably will be able to buy some coal mines at the beginning.

As for the latter, Li Shimin will either have an imperial edict prohibiting him from buying coal mines in large quantities at low prices.

Or ask the Ministry of Finance to buy it yourself.

In short, Li Shimin tacitly allowed him to do this, which was tantamount to favoring him.

Second, don't think that Li Shimin is the emperor and doesn't love money!

In ancient times, the emperor's internal treasury and the imperial court's treasury were two different things!

The emperor's internal treasury is the emperor's private money, the wealth of the royal family, which can be used at will.

But the treasury of the imperial court is the imperial court's money, and every penny must be spent wisely, not what the emperor can use as he wants.

Judging from the current fiscal revenue of Datang, the imperial treasury is not rich.

Not to mention Li Shimin's internal treasury, he must be very nervous.

Otherwise, on his wedding day a few days ago, Li Zhi wouldn't have asked him for a red envelope for nothing!

It is obvious that Li Shimin usually does not give enough money!

Therefore, Li Ke thought about giving Li Shimin [-]% of the shares.

One is to thank Li Shimin for allowing him to buy coal mines everywhere.

The second is to send some money to Li Shimin's internal treasury, so that his internal treasury can also become rich.

Although there are only [-]% of the shares, once the honeycomb coal is fully promoted and popularized, the annual profit will not be a small figure!

Besides, this money is not given away in vain.

As the saying goes, eat people with short mouths and short hands.

At 21, Li Shimin takes two cents from him every year, so why not think about him all the time?

You can't just collect money and do nothing, right?

"Your Highness is wise!"

After Duan Lun and Tang Jian learned that the last [-]% of the shares were reserved for Li Shimin, they were suddenly not curious.

Anyway, no matter what the purpose is, there is no harm in sending money to the emperor!

"There are still some details to discuss."

Afterwards, Li Ke, Duan Lun and Tang Jian began to discuss some details.

After all, the emergence of briquette will undoubtedly change the existing fuel pattern.

New things impact old things.

And this will cause a series of chain reactions.

For example, everyone used to burn firewood, so naturally there was a firewood industry chain.

For example, those who chop firewood and those who sell firewood.

They depend on these jobs for their livelihood.

If Li Ke launches honeycomb coal, it will completely overwhelm the firewood industry.

Then how to properly solve the livelihood of these people and so on.

These are issues that need to be discussed and resolved.

"My idea is to let people who cut wood for a living go to work in briquette workshops."

"Those who sell firewood will sell honeycomb coal instead, and deliver coal to everyone's door!"

Li Ke had an idea in his mind, and he told Duan Lun and Tang Jian about this idea.

"I think this method can not only solve their livelihood, but also quickly roll out the production and sales network!"

Tang Jian immediately nodded in agreement.

As the head of the household department, he naturally has to solve the living problems of the people who have lost their livelihoods due to the impact of briquettes.

The method Li Ke mentioned kills two birds with one stone.

Originally, a large amount of briquettes requires a large amount of manpower to make.

The people who just cut firewood went to make briquettes, not only had a job, but also provided manpower for the production of briquettes.

As for the firewood sellers, the same reasoning applies.

Before you sold firewood, then you sold coal!

It not only provided jobs for firewood sellers, but also quickly acquired a group of skilled salesmen.

As for some people who live on charcoal, charcoal is also needed to light the fire in the coal stove itself, so the impact is actually not big.

"What about the price of this briquette?"

At this time, Duan Lun asked a question.

Say a thousand words and ten thousand, the price of briquette can not be expensive!

If the price of briquette is very expensive, beyond the burden of ordinary people.

Even if honeycomb coal is easy to use and convenient, it is difficult to popularize it.

Once it cannot be popularized, the profit of this briquette will be very limited.

"1 article, 2 pieces."

Li Ke considered it comprehensively, and then set a price.

Because the briquettes are not all coal, but also a lot of yellow mud.

So the cost of a single briquette is very, very low!

In addition, his coal mines are basically purchased at ultra-low prices, so the cost of coal is also very low.

1 paper and 2 briquettes, the profit is still very good.

"The price is not high."

Hearing this, Duan Lun nodded. In his opinion, the price is quite appropriate.

"How many do you need to burn that day?"

Tang Jian also asked a key question.

"General coal stoves need to burn two at the same time."

"Enough for two meals and hot water."

"Also, there is a tuyere under the coal stove. If the tuyere is adjusted to the minimum, it can last for a day!"

Li Ke thought for a while, and then gave a clear answer.

In general, at the end of the day, the average family only needs to use two briquettes to meet their daily needs.

"That should be acceptable to a large part of the common people."

Tang Jian nodded immediately when he learned that the consumption was about 1 penny a day.

The cost of burning firewood for ordinary people is not low every day.

Compared with this more convenient and safer briquette, I believe many people will still choose it.

"And what about the coal stove and tongs?"

The two then asked about the coal stove and tongs.

After all, there is only coal without a coal stove and tongs.

If these two things are too expensive, it will also dissuade many people.

"These two things will be delivered for free!"

Li Ke smiled slightly, not asking for a penny!

"Free delivery?"

Hearing this, Duan Lun and Tang Jian were stunned!

Why is there such a direct free delivery operation?

Is Li Ke going to be a good person?

Wouldn't it be a loss if so many coal stoves and tongs were given away for free?

"Is this too radical?"

Duan Lun was a little incomprehensible.

Sell ​​it cheaper, he has no objection.

But if you give it away for free, not to mention the labor required to build it, and the material cost is also quite a lot!

Although the iron output of the Ministry of Industry has made a qualitative leap, it has increased many times.

But there are too many tongs, and if they are given away for free, then the Ministry of Industry cannot afford it!

Although Tang Jian didn't speak, he thought the same as Duan Lun.

"My lords, in fact, free things are the most expensive!"

Li Ke smiled and told the two of them a business idea.

People always think that free things are good, after all, they don't cost money.

But I didn't expect that there is actually a deeper charging method hidden behind the free fee!

For example, in modern Tencent games, basically all games are free!

No need to spend money to buy, just play for free!

However, the most profitable game company in the world is Tencent Games!

Moreover, his revenue and profit are more than all the remaining game companies combined!

Note that many of the other games are paid for.

For another example, the operator installs a broadband in your home for free, and gives you a free optical cat.

Looking at it this way, is the operator at a loss?

But one operator counts as one, which one is not full of food?

In fact, it is the same reason, what they earn is not a one-shot sale, but a steady stream of follow-up money!

For example, in free games, you need to buy items in the game, otherwise no one else will be awesome and no one will have face.

For example, broadband, you need to pay the broadband fee every year, otherwise your home broadband will be wasted.

And so were their coal stoves and tongs.

All you have is a coal stove and tongs are useless.

These two things are only useful when burning briquettes.

As long as everyone bought briquettes and formed the habit of burning briquettes.
