    Xishan is relatively close to the capital, which is why Fang Jifan is so confident. There are many veins of anthracite, especially in Shanxi Province, which is now the Datong area of ??Xuanfu. However, it is far away after all.  If we really want to mine it and transport it to Gyeonggi, a heavily populated town, it will be very expensive.

    But it is different here in Xishan. It is only ten miles away from the densely populated area of ????the capital. It can be mined at any time, and after simple desulfurization, it can be made into briquettes, or in the form of briquettes, and can be sent to the capital on the same day. There is almost no transportation problem.  The cost is low, and this is a shallow coal mine, and there is no need to dig a coal well, just open-pit mining.

    Here in Xishan, dozens of people have been hired to conduct a rough exploration of the ore veins. Some coal has been mined. After processing, the first car of coal was delivered to Zhan Shifu. Zhu Hou looked at the coal and danced with excitement: "Brother Fang  , Coal can be sold for money, right? I think this coal looks good

    Liu Jin couldn¡¯t bear to tell Zhu Houzhao that there was actually a lot of coal near the capital. How much would it cost to sell it?  Even if it is left there for people to pick up for free, of course, he dare not say anything.

    At this time, Fang Jifan¡¯s eyes were shining and he said with confidence: ¡°Your Highness, the time has come to make a fortune.¡±

    Zhu Houzhao rubbed his hands excitedly and said, "It hasn't been cold enough these days, and it hasn't snowed yet"

    At this moment, even Fang Jifan couldn't help but roll his eyes. Damn it, you don't feel cold because you're wearing a fucking jacket and cotton-padded clothes, covering your whole body tightly. Go and take a look.  For the refugees on the street, Shuntian Mansion would collect more than a dozen corpses every morning, all of them frozen to death. Ordinary people were not much better off.

    But after all, he is a major shareholder, and he needs to treat shareholders with the warmth of spring. Fang Jifan smiled and said: "Your Highness, it will snow soon. Not only that, I'm afraid the river will freeze. By then, it will be cold."  The ground is freezing, and it will be difficult for Your Highness not to make a fortune."

    Zhu Houzhao nodded enthusiastically: "Brother Fang, what do you want to do when we get rich?"

    Fang Jifan didn¡¯t expect that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would actually think about such a long-term issue, so he thought for a while and said: ¡°Earn more money and let everyone look up to me.¡±

    Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but smile: "Sure enough, heroes see the same thing, and so does I."

    In addition to mining, you also need to have a presence in the city. Otherwise, how can you do business with people?

    After recruiting a group of people to start mining, Fang Jifan also repaired his shop in Dongshi, and the first batch of anthracite briquettes began to be transported into the warehouse in the backyard of the shop.

    Since it was a business, it had to have a resounding name. Fang Jifan thought hard and finally ordered someone to hang a signboard of "Zhenguo Coal Industry" on the door.

    The word "Zhenguo" was suggested by Zhu Houzhao, the major shareholder. He is the prince and the major shareholder who invested nearly half of the capital. Well, of course he has the final say.

    There is a signboard, there are briquettes, and everything is going smoothly. Next, there is the organizational structure of Zhenguo Coal Industry. Fang Jifan is naturally the big owner, but who will be responsible for the business?

    Fang Jifan remembered someone, Wang Jinyuan.

    Wang Jinyuan was carried to Fang's house.

    He was originally fat, but in the past few days, he lost dozens of pounds. If it weren't for his haggard look, Fang Jifan would have suspected that he should become a weight loss coach.

    As soon as he saw Fang Jifan, Wang Jinyuan cried and waved his hands: "Mr. Fang, Mr. Fang please spare me, just do your best, I can't stand the torment Oh my god" He covered his heart,  Roaring towards the sky: "What evil have I done? I ran around for Young Master Fang and cooperated with others to purchase ebony. After finally getting the goods out, His Highness the Crown Prince held a three-foot-long sword to his neck.  It was useless for me to beg for mercy when he asked me to buy his treasures. He handed over 200,000 taels of silver and bought a large box of royal items for the palace. They said they were rare treasures and the best among treasures.  . But I am timid. Even if I dare to sell these royal objects in the palace, someone must dare to buy them. Not only do I dare not sell them, I am also afraid that these treasures will be slightly damaged. When will the palace think of these treasures?  Come, if I come to ask for it, wouldn¡¯t I be guilty of deceiving the emperor?¡±

    His eyes were full of tears, and then he started howling, raising his hands to the sky, and cried until he was so sad that even Fang Jifan couldn't help but feel sympathy for him.

    So Fang Jifan comforted him: "Hey, don't cry. Isn't it just two hundred thousand taels of silver? Where we fell, we got up. Now there is a business that I want to do with you. You can be the big shopkeeper and help me."  The young master sells coal, which is a huge profit. Let's do this. I will give you half of the net profit every year, and we can all make a fortune together, okay?"

      It was the first time that Wang Jinyuan saw Fang Jifan being so kind and kind.

    Half percent is just a 5% profit, but for Wang Jinyuan, who has lost all his wealth and is in dire straits, it is nothing less than a life-saving straw.

    Wang Jinyuan is a man with considerable business acumen and is very handy in doing business. In fact, he is a rare talent. If His Highness had not tricked him, he would have been one of the most outstanding businessmen in Beijing, even if he was not the richest man.

    It's just that without the two hundred thousand taels of silver, he has completely returned to poverty. When he was able to spend one million taels of silver to buy Wu Mu, it wasn't all his money. It was all borrowed from everywhere and manipulated by some people behind the scenes.  They are just people in front of the stage.

    But Wang Jinyuan was still in tears. When he heard that Fang Jifan wanted to sell coal, he cried with unabated sadness: "Sell sell coal There is coal everywhere in the world, can you sell it? No no"

    He shook his head like a rattle. He had been deceived by these damn powerful people so much that he was afraid. Now he just wanted to live the rest of his life quietly and couldn't afford to bother.

    Do you think I, Wang Jinyuan, am the second?

    Fang Jifan squinted his eyes and sighed: "If you have something to say, please tell me, Brother Wang, business cannot be done without mercy. We are old friends. Brother Wang really refuses to cooperate with me?"

    "No." Wang Jinyuan was determined, leaving no room for negotiation.

    Fang Jifan sighed again, patted his shoulder and said: "Everyone has his own ambitions, and I am not the kind of person who forces others to do something difficult for him. Oh, by the way, Brother Wang, His Highness the Crown Prince is really so so like a robber,  He even held a big knife to your neck?"

    When Wang Jinyuan thought of this sad thing, he suddenly started sobbing again and said: "Hey, don't mention it. The three-foot-long sword blows off the hair and breaks the hair. I I beg for mercy but it's in vain I'm miserable I'm miserable  ¡­¡±

    Wang Jinyuan is about to cry again.

    Fang Jifan suddenly shouted: "Deng Jian, no one can stop me. Go and fetch my sword, which is used to kill the prince and the profiteer!"

    "" Wang Jinyuan was stunned. For a moment, he stopped crying: "Master Fang, what does this mean? What does this mean? Didn't you say that there is no benevolence and righteousness in business? Didn't you say that you don't force others to do something difficult?"

    Fang Jifan comforted him with a pleasant look: "Old Wang, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, be good, it's just a joke. You also know that this young master likes to joke. It's okay, it's okay. Just calm down and don't be impatient. Come, sit down, let's drink tea, drink tea."  "

    Wang Jinyuan trembled, smelling a dangerous aura, and said hurriedly: "Master Fang, you have to make it clear, you have to make it clear, what is a swordsman, what is a profiteer?"

    Fang Jifan said gently: "I said it was just a joke. Come on, let's drink tea first. Doesn't Brother Wang know who I am? I just love to joke."

    Fang Jifan looked peaceful, but Wang Jinyuan broke out in a cold sweat. Everyone in the world knew who this Fang Jifan was.

    So he wailed: "It is illegal to kill someone!"

    "Yes, yes, yes." Fang Jifan nodded like a chicken: "I hate beatings and killings the most. My standard of conduct is to abide by the rules and laws. Such messy things are really terrible, Brother Wang.  , why don¡¯t you drink tea?¡±

    Wang Jinyuan's face twitched, his pupils contracted and dilated crazily, and suddenly he stretched his neck, and his butt slipped from the chair, and he knelt down on the ground: "Iit's not enough for me to do it, I did it, I am willing to sell it for Mr. Fang  Coal, this little coal is sold."

    Fang Jifan looked at him in surprise and said: "Brother Wang, is this coming from your sincerity? You must not force yourself. You also know that I hate people who force others, like His Highness the Crown Prince.  I feel shameful when I think about people who use threats and inducements, and buy and sell by force. I am ashamed to be associated with such people."

    "Absolutely sincere, Mr. Fang" Wang Jinyuan took a deep breath: "I have admired Mr. Fang for a long time. I am truly lucky to be able to serve Mr. Fang. Why should I be reluctant? Don't say that I am just doing business for Mr. Fang.  , Even if I go up the mountain of knives or go down into the sea of ??fire, if I, Wang Jinyuan, frown, I will be worse than a pig or a dog, and God will hate me!"
