Ying Feiyu explained everything from internal combustion engines to steam engines to unsalable coal.

At the same time, he gave Ying Zheng a detailed introduction to the pros and cons of briquettes, and also gave guidance to a few veterans to produce briquettes, as well as the marketing methods!

Ying Zheng nodded repeatedly, but couldn't say anything.

Because these things are his knowledge blind spot and he doesn’t understand them at all!

It wasn't until Ying Feiyu finished speaking that Ying Zheng asked the same question as Feng Quji, asking whether it would affect the livelihood of woodcutter and firewood sellers!

Ying Feiyu also answered the same as before. As long as people are willing, they can go to the briquette factory or wholesale the briquettes for sale. The money they make will definitely not be less than before!

"Well, you are quite thoughtful!"

After Ying Zheng heard this, he couldn't say anything except praise.

This guy has already thought about the fact that the popularity of internal combustion engines will crowd out coal mines in advance, and has made arrangements properly.

At the same time, it can also call on people to protect the environment, which is simply killing two birds with one stone!

"My son is the prince of the Qin Dynasty. When doing things, you must put the people first!"

"okay!"

These words were the most satisfactory ones that Ying Zheng heard today.

In the following period, many briquette factories were opened throughout Daqin!

There is no technical skill involved in this thing. As long as you master the proportions, anyone with enough strength can do it!

Soon, the first batch of briquettes was prepared and dried!

"If it weren't for His Highness the Prince's method, our coal mine would have been bought in vain!"

"Yeah, we didn't expect that the steam engine would be replaced immediately. We just hired a lot of people to dig coal, but no one wanted the coal all of a sudden. We almost lost money!"

"As long as people get used to our briquettes, business will continue to flow from now on!"

"That's right! Although there are a few more steps to make briquettes, the profit is still considerable!"

"Yes! I have also calculated that it is not much less than before. Even if it is a little more troublesome, it is still better than not being able to sell it and the coal mine closing down!"

"I am very sure of that……!"

Several private coal mine bosses gathered together to discuss the issue of briquettes.

They are all from the same county, and their sales methods are almost the same!

Otherwise, if you give one hundred coal stoves, he will give fifty coal stoves.

Or if you sell for three cents and he sells for two cents, everyone will suppress their profits.

Malicious competition is not good for everyone!

Finally, everyone unanimously decided to set the price of honeycomb briquettes at three cents per piece. As long as you purchase 100 yuan at a time, you will receive a coal stove and a fire tongs!

If you don’t want a coal stove, just give me ten more briquettes!

The price is the same, the next thing to fight is the sales method!

Whoever has strong means will sell it!

The same is true in Xianyang City. There are many briquette factories nearby. As long as the weather is good, the factories will be filled with briquettes.

Wang Bi, Zhang Han and others have strong family backgrounds. In addition to normal drying, they also asked the Ministry of Industry to help them build a hot air chamber. No matter it is windy or rainy, they can dry the honeycomb briquettes in time!

The demand for the first batch will definitely be huge, and whoever makes more will be able to sell more.

"Block briquette, briquette briquette! Convenient and easy to use!"

"Three cents per dollar, two dollars is enough for a whole day!"

"As long as you buy enough 100 yuan today, I will give you a coal stove!"

"What? Not enough? Then give me another pair of pokers!"

After the production of briquettes, there were suddenly a lot of hawking sounds on the streets.

"Bicomb briquettes only cost three cents a piece? Two yuan is enough to last a whole day? Is it true?"

People had made guesses about the price of briquettes before, and they estimated that it would cost more than ten cents.

After all, coal has to be processed after it is dug out.

Nowadays, workers’ salaries are not low, and all of these have to be calculated into the briquettes!

Unexpectedly, when the price came out, it was only three cents per dollar?

"Wouldn't you know if it's real or fake after you buy it and try it?"

The dealers selling briquettes used aggressive tactics.

"Then what should I do if it doesn't work after I buy it?"

Although the price is not high, people's money is hard-earned and not blown by the wind, so you should be careful when buying things.

"If it doesn't work, just return it to me, okay?"

The hawker patted his chest and sealed the ticket.

"Itinerant traders like you don't know where they will be tomorrow if they are here today. Where can we find them?"

"That's right! By the time we look for it, you will have already greased the soles of your feet and left!"

Even with the guarantee, the people still didn't believe it.

"Auntie, sister-in-law, this is briquettes. It's very heavy. It's not like cloth or seasonings. I just carried it on my back and left! Besides, His Highness the Crown Prince has emphasized the usefulness of briquettes in newspapers. Even if you don't believe me, you still can't.

You have to trust His Highness, right?"

The vendor directly moved Ying Feiyu out.

"His Royal Highness it seems that he has indeed promoted briquettes. How about... let's buy a few pieces and go back and try them?"

Ying Feiyu's reputation among the people is quite stable.

As long as His Royal Highness studies something, there is nothing wrong with it!

"Don't be impulsive. It's better to let him try it for us. If it's really good, I'll buy a few pieces too!"

As soon as a middle-aged woman was about to buy, she was stopped by another person next to her and asked the vendor to try it for them. "There are so many people here, please try it for us to see if this briquette is really what you said."

So good! As long as it’s really good, we’ll all buy a few pieces!”

"It's done! Sister said we should try it, so let's try it! Real gold is not afraid of fire, let's practice!"

The vendor was also happy and agreed immediately.

Then he moved a coal stove, put on a kindling match, lit it, put two pieces of briquettes in it, and took a kettle to fill a pot of water in a nearby shop.

Even the shopkeepers and waiters came out to watch the fun.

Under the gaze of everyone, the cold water in the kettle started to move after a while.

"Is this...is it hot? Shopkeeper, I'm afraid the water you filled it with is not hot water, right?"

"That's right! If this were at home, the pot isn't even hot yet, so how can the water move?"

Seeing this situation, the people turned their attention to the shopkeeper.

I suspect they are working together. In order to sell briquettes, they directly put hot water into the kettle.

This time the shopkeeper was wronged, and he immediately made a sad face and said, "Neighbors, you have wronged me. My store has been open for more than ten years, and you guys should know what kind of person I am! And I and I

I didn’t know this little brother at all, so he came to fill the water, so I agreed. I just watched it being pumped out of the well, so why did we collude to fill it with hot water?”

"Yes, yes, I was washing the dishes used by customers in the kitchen, and I also watched this brother fetch the water with my own eyes. It has nothing to do with our store!"
