At the beginning, his wife came to him, and he became rich by selling kidney treasures.

Xu Hu gave him a big surprise!

His mood, which had been shrouded in gloom for more than a month, suddenly became clear and cloudless!

Looking at the coal in his hand, Ren Hao immediately arranged for others to continue digging on the spot and wait for his follow-up orders.

Because the discovery of coal does not necessarily mean there is a coal mine, it may just be a small coal pit.

To be on the safe side, Ren Hao plans to wait until there are a large number of coal mines before making subsequent adjustments.

It took half a day on horseback with Xu Hu to arrive at the place where Xu Hu had dug the coal.

Ren Hao went down to investigate personally, and after scattered sampling, he finally determined that this was a coal mine!

After confirming it, Ren Hao immediately ordered the two thousand people he led to transfer fifteen hundred people over, and the other five hundred people continued to take on the task of exploring the coal mines to provide basic guarantees for subsequent development.

Hongyao's people also mobilized a thousand people over, leaving only five hundred to continue digging.

In view of Xu Hu's luck in finding coal mines, Ren Hao sent Xu Hu out to be in charge of the exploration work of a total of 1,000 people in the two places.

He transferred Hongyao to his side to assist him in coal mining.

There are a total of four thousand people working on a coal mine. There are no modern equipment and they can only rely on manpower to mine.

If four thousand people are not enough, then ten thousand will do. If ten thousand is not enough, then twenty thousand will do. Once the coal mine is mined, there will be too many problems to solve!

Dig a hole.

Stand.

Transporting earth.

Ren Hao even summoned craftsmen in the army to make a simple iron fan blade to be used as a tool for underground ventilation.

After all, the deeper you go, the thinner the oxygen becomes. If there is no ventilation equipment, people will die!

In addition, Ren Hao also enriched the mine's reinforcement equipment. After all, once the mine collapses, not only will people die, but it will also delay the progress of mining, causing Ren Hao to fail.

Time passes day by day.

Three months later.

Ren Hao returned to the city and found Xu Qing. The two talked for a whole day, and finally Xu Qing sent someone away.

Ren Hao then ordered a large group of people to carry thousands of carts of coal to the capital.

A month later, news came from the capital that the Xu family suddenly started selling a kind of charcoal called coal, which burned much longer than the finest charcoal, had stronger firepower and higher temperature. It was loved by all the dignitaries, and even the imperial palace purchased it.

For a time, coal became the favorite of dignitaries.

However, there were too many people and too little coal, and the demand for coal failed to meet the demand. Just when everyone was sighing, the Xu family released a large amount of coal again. And because the price was not expensive, even the ordinary people in the capital began to use coal, and the Xu family pocketed large sums of money.

The silver was then sent to the God of War Pass.

……

God of War Pass, in the city.

Marshal's Mansion.

Xu Qing, the four military chiefs, military advisor Zhuge Xuanji, and Ren Hao were all present.

Xu Qing held the account book in his hand and frowned.

"Young Marshal, is there a problem?" Zhuge Xuanji asked.

Seeing Xu Qing's expression, Wen Yan looked coldly at Ren Hao.

"Hmph, you boasted so much in the past, how dare you sit here now!" Wen Yan sneered coldly.

Her disgust towards Ren Hao made her immediately make sarcastic remarks.

Ren Hao looked indifferent, as if he didn't hear anything, and just drank his tea.

"I'm talking to you!" Wen Yan was furious.

Ren Hao rolled his eyes at her and said calmly, "If you could shut up, it would be quieter here."

"Besides, don't you think it would be embarrassing for you to do this?"

Wen Yan sneered: "I don't think there's anything wrong with slapping you in the face!"

Zhuge Xuanji also frowned. He had heard Ren Hao say that with such confidence before, as if he was absolutely sure. But now, seeing their expressions, his heart sank.

The soldiers guarding the Ares Pass have run out of pay, and even the food is running low. If they don't have enough money, the Ares soldiers will probably starve to death even without the ancient Wei attacking.

Are they going to rob the people of their food?

Thinking of this, Zhuge Xuanji held on to a glimmer of hope and said, "Young Marshal, if the requirements cannot be met, even a few tens of thousands of taels will be fine. The three armies can still hold out for a while if they tighten their belts."

"I think before we talk about this matter, we should first punish those people who brag!" Wen Yan snorted coldly.

At this moment, Xu Qing's frown suddenly relaxed, and his eyes fell on Ren Hao: "Brother-in-law, can you lend me these three hundred thousand taels first, and I'll return it to you in a few months?"

As soon as the words fell, the other five people exclaimed.

"Three hundred thousand taels!"

"How come he took so much!"

"How much money did you make?"

"Hiss...this..."

"This is impossible!"

Even Zhuge Xuanji, who was always steady and composed and remained calm even when faced with great difficulties, had a blush on his face!

As the think tank in the army, his mind worked the fastest. When he heard that Ren Hao took 300,000 taels, he immediately understood that this time, Ren Hao made a full one million taels in just a few months!

What is this concept?

It is almost more than the annual military salary of these 70,000 people!

Ren Hao ignored the others and looked at Xu Qing. He hesitated for a moment, then nodded helplessly and said, "You are my brother-in-law. Just lend it to me, but we have to sign an IOU. If you cheat, I will go to Yating to complain."

"With our relationship, do we need to sign an IOU?" Xu Qing was stunned.

"Of course you have to sign. Let's put one thing first. Even if you are willing to pay it back, you can't resist the instigation of some people who are good at talking big." Ren Hao curled his lips.

Wen Yan, who was standing at the side, blushed and could not help but angrily said, "Who are you calling a good talker?"

"Whoever is the most excited is the one!" Ren Hao said immediately.

Wen Yan's pretty face suddenly turned red like an apple. She stood up and pointed her finger at Ren Hao, wanting to say something, but couldn't utter a word. After a moment, she put her hand down and turned away.

Swish!

The next moment, the other five people present all gave Ren Hao a thumbs up.

Jiang Yunfeng, who was always honest and straightforward, gave a thumbs up and said, "Brother, you are awesome! I don't even dare to mess with this woman."

"It's really amazing." Li Cang's eyes also showed admiration.

If they were to fight, perhaps neither would be convinced by the other, but when it comes to making money, they are indeed inferior to Ren Hao.

"Not bad, little brother." The mature and steady Sun Wei couldn't help but praise him.

Ren Hao earned one million taels in such a short time, which solved the annual military pay for the God of War Army. This was definitely a huge boost to the military spirit and morale!

"This is not over yet!" Xu Qing interrupted, "From now on, the annual income will not be less than three million taels!"

"hiss……"

Several people took a deep breath again. Three million taels!

If it were used to support the army, it could support an army of 200,000!

Even the few archers and heavy armored cavalry that existed before can be increased in large numbers!

This is the confidence!
