Chapter 148 Stone Nirvana
"Shi Nie?"
Hearing Lord Mo speak, the ministers all turned their heads, and then they heard Changwen Lord Xiong Dian sneer: "Mr. Shengping, must he be in a hurry and start talking nonsense? Items like Shi Nie can only be used to smelt bronze.
If it is used for heating, it will kill people!"
Mo Jun glanced at him, the situation was urgent now, so he really didn't bother to talk to this guy.
Zi Guzi said: "I naturally know the dangers of Shi Nie, so I don't plan to use Shi Nie for heating directly, but I plan to use it to burn the Kang."
Ying Zheng asked curiously: "Burning Kang?"
Mo Jun nodded and said: "Yes, this is a heating method similar to setting up a stove and burning a pot. It is a method of heating the earthen kang by adding fire to the outside of the house."
Mo Jun briefly explained to Ying Zheng the principle of heating the ‘Tu Kang’.
In fact, Mo Jun has many methods of heating in his mind. The best one is undoubtedly to forge iron pipes from steel and then make them into heaters.
But unfortunately, things like "heating" are destined to not be popularized under current conditions.
The simplest method is to directly use Shi Nie for heating.
Faced with such a major disaster.
At this moment, Ying Zheng had also opened the scroll. When he saw the contents of the scroll clearly, he suddenly sneered and said: "Ha~~ It seems that I lost the bet between me and Mo Qing!
"
Ying Zheng praised with satisfaction: "Qing Mo is really a talented person. I and all the ministers have been worrying about the problem for several hours, but Qing Mo only spent a moment and figured out a way to deal with it. He is really my humerus."
The principle of 'burning the kang' is very simple. After Mo Jun briefly described it, the ministers in the court could roughly judge the probability of success by deducing it in their minds.
However, the real main reason is that the combustion of stone is not complete enough, so harmful gases such as 'carbon monoxide' are produced.
Some people have speculated that the emission of poisonous gas is related to the airtightness of the room.
In fact, "natural disasters" may be a devastating disaster for ordinary people.
This guess cannot be said to be completely wrong, because burning stone nirvana can poison people, and part of the reason is indeed related to the airtightness of the room.
But actually.
The use of coal in the Central Plains region has been recorded since the Shang and Zhou dynasties.
After saying that, the chamberlain placed the urgent letter next to Ying Zheng and then quietly exited the palace.
Stone Nirvana.
When the chamberlain left, Ying Zheng lost another one, and then he began to unpack the scroll, and at the same time said casually: "Mo Qing has been staring at the chamberlain. Could it be that he knows the chamberlain just now?"
When he heard this name, although he had already made a guess in his mind before, Mo Jun couldn't help but narrow his eyes.
But this method is too dangerous. In this era when writing is not yet popular, even if Lord Mo gives the people of Qin the correct way to use the 'Stone Nirvana', many people will definitely make mistakes.
resulting in loss of life.
Mr. Mo was startled, and then said: "On the contrary, it is precisely because I have never seen that chamberlain before, so I was a little curious for a while."
But in the moment.
The waiter said: "No!"
Mo Jun said: "I am not a saint, so naturally I cannot be omnipotent."
But later, someone burned stone nirvana in the room and was unscathed. But some people still got poisoned and fainted even if they opened all the doors and windows.
Subsequently, county guards from various places also began to take action. The Qin State was very proficient in disaster response procedures, because the natural and man-made disasters in various places in previous years had accumulated a lot of experience for the Qin State.
However, for the upper-class officials and nobles of the Qin State, 'natural disasters' were the least trivial matter worth mentioning.
······
It was only the third day after Yingzheng's edict arrived in various counties.
Especially for officials, bigger things are often easier to deal with.
If nothing else happens, everything will be fine.
Mr. Mo bowed humbly and said, "My lord, I am so ashamed."
But with the temperament of the old nobles and landlords in the counties and counties of Qin State, how could it be possible that nothing could be rectified?
Just like the heavy snow disaster that Qin State encountered this time, it seemed that the situation was very serious, and it could be assigned to the heads of major officials, as well as local governors and magistrates. They were just acting in accordance with the edicts issued by them.
Officials in various places only need to carry out disaster relief in accordance with the procedures, and do not actually need to worry too much about other aspects.
This is already the best solution.
An urgent letter was urgently delivered to Xianyang Palace from the north. At this time, in the back hall of Xianyang Palace, Ying Zheng was playing chess with Gai Nie, while Mo Jun sat aside and watched.
Then, Changwen Jun Xiong Dian closed his mouth.
Um!
Mr. Mo really doesn't know how to play Go.
Ying Zheng dropped a son, then turned to look at Mo Jun and said, "What do you think, Mo Qing, of my son?"
As the saying goes, “Do big things with great care, but be careful with small things.”
Naturally, Ying Zheng quickly promulgated the edict to the governors of various places.
Also known as "coal".
In fact, even if you burn the kang from outside, there is still a risk of 'toxic gas' penetrating into the room.
So this guess was rejected.
Again.
However, the current use of coal is mainly for open-pit smelting of bronze or iron ore, because this is the only relatively safe method of use.
Mr. Mo said helplessly: "I am stupid and can't see it."
When Ying Zheng heard this, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "It's really surprising to me that Mo Qing actually has an unreasonable way."
······
There is a solution.
I saw a pale-faced chamberlain with reddish hair walking in, holding a scroll in both hands, and said respectfully in a low voice: "Your Majesty, there is an urgent message from the east of the river."
During the conversation between the two people.
certainly.
long, long ago.
As long as the rules and procedures are correct, no matter how much loss the civilians suffer in the end, the officials themselves do not need to bear any responsibility.
Ying Zheng obviously didn't pay much attention to a small chamberlain, so he said casually: "Well, the previous chamberlain was ill and could not be treated in time. I saw that this little chamberlain was a bit clever, so I let him stay in Xianyang temporarily.
Palace servant. If I remember correctly, his name seems to be 'Zhao Gao'..."
After saying that, Lord Mo asked again, as if unintentionally: "By the way, Your Majesty, is that chamberlain just now the new one?"
When Ying Zheng heard this, his smile suddenly became serious and he said majestically: "Put it there!"
Some people have found that the gas after burning Shi Nie is "poisonous", but they have never been able to figure out how this "poison" makes people fall victim to it.
After saying that, Ying Zheng opened the scroll and placed it on the desk.
Mo Jun took a look.
It was discovered that this was an urgent letter from the governor of Hedong County, and the content recorded in it was also very simple. Generally speaking, it can be summarized in one sentence:
The disaster relief work in Hedong County is not going well.
