The farmers are all poor and do not even have cotton coats at home. Thin and simple hemp clothes cannot keep the cold. The demand for charcoal fire to keep the cold is too high. If farmers in a village use charcoal fire to keep the cold, they will definitely be able to empty the firewood from the two mountains.

After listening to Gandalf's report, Luo Lan fell into deep thought. He was considering a major event, whether to promote coal.

Coal is an evil thing. Farmers will avoid coal when they go up the mountain to hunt and find it, so it is not easy for farmers to accept coal.

But this problem is not the most troublesome, the most troublesome thing is the security issue.

When heating in winter, it will definitely be poor in ventilation, and the coal in the special economic zones can be described as "black smoke" when burning, and the workers in the open air can't stand it.

This kind of coal is not suitable for heating.

To put it bluntly, the reason why Luo Lan has been slow to promote coal is because the coal quality in the Special Administrative Region is too poor, which can be called killing coal.

"Your Highness, since the Special Administrative Region uses black stone, it should work to promote it to farmers' homes." Gandalf and Luo Lan thought of going together, but he ignored the fundamental problem.

Luo Lan shook her head and said, "The black stones in the special zone are too dangerous for indoor heating. We need better black stones, otherwise it will easily lead to life and the loss will not be worth the cost."

"Better quality?" Gandalf was puzzled, "Is Blackstone still classified?"

People in this world are too evaded by Black Stone, so they can't study what categories.

But Luo Lan knew that there are three categories of coal, namely anthracite, bituminous coal, and lignite. Among them, there is almost no black smoke when anthracite is burned, and as long as the indoor ventilation is maintained, it will not cause poisoning.

However, there is no anthracite in the Industrial Zone.

Luo Lan has been in the Special Administrative Region for a long time these days, but he has not found any coal that will not smoke, so he can be sure that there is no anthracite in the Special Administrative Region.

"There is a kind of black stone that is hard, dense and high in luster, with extremely high carbon content... It means that it won't emit much smoke when it burns. This kind of black stone can be promoted."

Luo Lan told Gandalf that Gandalf had no idea at all and could only eat grilled fish in a depressing manner.

At this time, the crowd cheered, but Rick came.

He was dirty, like a beggar, and was so tired that he was breathing. He didn't know where he had gone.

Gandalf immediately stood up and bowed to Rick apologetically, making Rick look confused.

Luo Lan explained to him, and Rick laughed. He was not a pretentious person either. He patted Gandalf on the shoulder and sat next to Luo Lan.

"Your Highness, guess what I found? In the mountains ten kilometers north of Desert, we found silver!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone around was shocked.

silver!

Although it is not precious to gold, it is definitely a treasure. Bouji Island is about to develop!

This unexpected joy also made Luo Lan smile. Unexpectedly, silver was found on Bouji Island!

The effect of gunpowder began to appear, and no matter how high the mountain was, it would turn into gravel under the bombardment of gunpowder, and it could not be hidden from gold, silver and iron.

However, Luo Lan was still too happy because what Rick discovered was not silver ore, but some fine silver ore.

"They are like tree roots, extending underground and scattered. We have only mined twenty kilograms at present, and then we can't find more."

Rick explained, looking quite apologetic.

Luo Lan was still a little disappointed, but he didn't care. Instead, he comforted Rick: "Don't worry, Daisy's explosive bombs are not enough. You can't mine deeper places. When the explosive bombs are enough, we will explode the entire area, and there will definitely be silver mines."

Luo Lan is not a pure comfort. Generally, silver ores are scattered, but they are relatively scattered. As long as silver ore is found, there are basically silver ores nearby.

Rick also became motivated, and after eating and drinking, he was about to run away again.

Luo Lan laughed silently: "You are the Minister of Agriculture, why do you fall in love with mining?"

Rick laughed heartily: "Make wheat materials in spring, and mine in winter to warm up your body... By the way, Your Highness, I also found a large black stone mine there, which is lighter in color and even whitened..."

"What?"

Luo Lan stood up suddenly, and the excitement on her face was beyond words.

He really wanted to come to whatever he wanted, but Rick actually discovered anthracite. According to his description, it was definitely anthracite, and it was also a large anthracite mine!

"Let's go, take me there!" Luo Lan urged him to check it out in person in a puzzled expression.

Gandalf also followed. He heard Luo Lan talk about anthracite just now, and now he also thought of it.

The group immediately went north. When passing by Daisy Industrial Special Zone, Daisy and some elite miners also followed.

Barrett's guards opened the way, and everyone soon arrived at the Xinkai coal mine in the north.

On the edge of the coal mine, Luo Lan looked around and saw a large pit of more than 30 meters long blown up in front of him. The soil and rocks were everywhere in the pit, and the most eye-catching thing was the patches of black stones.

It is meticulous and high-gloss, and is only buried under the soil surface, and in some places it is even directly open.

Luo Lan was excited. He only roughly understood the characteristics of anthracite and was not a professional miner, so he was not sure that this was natural anthracite.

"Barrett, take a few black stones and ignite it."

Luo Lan ordered, and Barrett immediately jumped out of the pit and grabbed a few tiny black stones.

Under the gaze of everyone, Barrett first lit a pile of firewood, then put the black stone on it and ignited it.

The black stone barely emitted black smoke, and the scorching flames baked the black stone, and the amazing heat of the black stone was also emitted.

“Add a lot.”

Luo Lan said again, several guards picked up a pile of black stones and put them in the fire. When the firewood was extinguished, the pile of black stones had already burned red.

There is still no choking black smoke.

They are the same as the best charcoal, but they contain far more heat than charcoal.

Rick and others finally discovered Xuan and said in shock: "This black stone... has no poisonous gas!"

Luo Lan nodded with a smile.

My good luck has finally come. Anthracite can not only be used for heating, but also promote trade development. Anthracite is coal that can be promoted to ordinary industry and commerce!

"Rick, summoning merchants, preferably those who used to do charcoal business, the more the better."

Luo Lan ordered Rick to do it immediately.

"Gandalff, now you go back to Bouge City and find Jig and Ellie of the rum workshop and ask them to help me build another workshop to prevent fire and moisture."

"yes!"

Gandalf rushed back to Bouge City without asking the reason.

Only Dess, Barrett and others were left at the scene.

The young and innocent Daisy never spoke, she quietly peeked at Luo Lan.

Luo Lan smiled at her: "I have something big to do, and I will come to you to talk about gunpowder next day."

He took Barrett and left quickly. Dess waved his head with his head raised, his little face blushing.

Luo Lan is so anxious because he is going to set up a second state-owned company, the smokeless Black Stone Company of Bouji Island.
