Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

After the Wu family's matter came to an end, the county resumed its peaceful days.

Mo Qingling had the wooden box sent to the capital on horseback.

As for how to deal with it, it was none of his business.

Then, he publicly disclosed that he found the iron mine and hired people to open it.

He still had the iron-making formula given by the emperor, and the Ministry of Works had sent two people to assist him.

Soon, a workshop for ironmaking was built.

Shi Qingluo was wearing a sweater and a furry cloak that her young husband had specially sent people to the prefecture capital to make, but she still felt cold.

She realized that they were all using braziers.

If they used ordinary carbon, the fireworks would be big and choking.

They had to use silver thread carbon to avoid such a problem, but a brazier was also cold.

It would be too expensive to put in more braziers.

She hugged the brazier and squeezed onto the sofa with Xiao Hanzheng. "Old Xiao, let's go find Mo Qingling to get some iron."

Xiao Hanzheng shifted his gaze from the book to her and asked, "What's the point of getting iron?"

Shi Qing replied, "To make an iron stove. The weather is getting colder and colder. Braziers are not as suitable as iron stoves."

There were also coal stoves made of mud or bricks in the kitchen.

There were no iron-sheet stoves or honeycomb stoves.

She said, "When the time comes, we can get some honeycomb stoves. The cost is much cheaper than silver-thread stoves.

"Let's make an iron stove like a table.

"You can put your books on the table. Not only will you feel warm all over, but your hands will also feel warm."

"We also want one in the kitchen.

"When we eat, we can eat on the stove.

"The food will always be hot, so it won't get cold all of a sudden."

The more she thought about it, the more she felt that she should get the iron stove and honeycomb furnace out.

Not only would it be convenient for them, but it would also benefit the people.

Xiao Hanzheng knew that his little wife was afraid of the cold. Looking at her sparkling eyes, he put down the book and said with a smile, "Alright, let's go find Mo Qingling now."

He was used to winter like this, so his little wife was obviously not used to it.

What else could he do? He could only pamper her.

Shi Qingluo gave him a big kiss on the cheek. "You're the best!"

The two of them went to the county town, and Mo Qingling was doing some official business.

Under the desk was a brazier.

He was wearing a woolen sweater that Xiao Hanzheng had given him with woolen gloves.

He was feeling much warmer than usual.

When he heard that the two of them had come to visit, he took a break from his official business to welcome them.
