Li Yu did not respond. In her heart, she had never felt that it was because she was so capable and had good taste. She had always felt that she was just an ordinary woman outside of this world.

When they returned to the manor, Xing Hua and the others had already planted the sweet potato seedlings and scattered the plant ashes.

After dinner, Chu Fu said to Li Yu, “Madam Li, I’ll return to the capital first and find that rich businessman to settle the matter of the manor for you.”

“Alright.” Li Yu thought for a moment and instructed, “Chief Chu, if he has already taken action, there’s no need to spend any more effort.”

When Chu Fu heard Li Yu’s words, he smiled and said, “Don’t worry, I know my limits.”

Li Yu sent Chu Fu off and went back to put the coals into the stove. She watched as the remaining fire in the stove slowly lit the coals. After the coals burned, they emitted blue flames.

Although she didn’t know much about coal, combined with the color of the flames when she used the gas stove in her previous life, Li Yu felt that this kind of coal should be high-quality.

Xing Hua looked at Li Yu curiously. “Madam, what did you put in the stove? Why did it burn like firewood?”

“I saw that it looked a little like the charcoal we burned, so I picked it up and tried it. I didn’t expect it to really burn like charcoal.”

Li Yu returned to the house and recalled how she had drawn a coal stove and a honeycomb coal molding machine. There were also iron tongs and a coal stove lid for holding coal. She took the blueprint out and handed it to Ji Xiang.

Ji Xiang looked at what was on the blueprint and felt it was a little like a red clay stove, but much bigger than a small red clay stove.

“Madam, what is this? What’s its use?”

“You’ll know when it’s done.” Li Yu pointed at the blueprint. “When we return to the capital, take this to the brick kiln and ask him to make a few according to the blueprint. Tell him to place three iron bars at the bottom. Install a round iron tube here. The iron tube will be made according to the size I requested.”

Ji Xiang saw that Li Yu even had a blueprint in her hand. “How do you make this?”

“We’ll have to get this made at the blacksmith’s. Go get the cart and we’ll talk about it when we get back.”

Ji Xiang agreed and left. Li Yu told Haitang about the things to take note of when planting the sweet potato seedlings. After Haitang confirmed that she had remembered them, she left the Wang family’s Village with her people.

After returning to the capital, Li Yu said to Ji Xiang, “I found a kind of black stone that looks like charcoal at the back of the mountain. I took it back and tried it. It quickly ignited in the stove. It should be something called coal that my master said. ”

Li Yu felt that it was fortunate that she had “found” this master for herself back then. Otherwise, it would have been difficult to explain these things.

Ji Xiang thought for a moment. “Coal! Is it a kind of carbon like charcoal?”

Ji Xiang went to find someone to forge the coal stove. Li Yu took a look at the two children and went out to find a blacksmith shop and walked in.

The blacksmith was busy hammering. Xing Hua went forward and shouted,

“Uncle, my Madam wants to custom-make something.”

The blacksmith put down the hammer and turned around. “Alright! Young lady, what kind of custom-made thing does your Madam want?”

Li Yu handed the blueprint to the blacksmith. The blacksmith looked at it for a while and pointed at it. “Madam, is this connected to the iron rods in the iron cuoe ana me rew small Iron roas In me rouna ruoer ‘

Li Yu nodded and pointed at the blueprint to explain, “This is a fixed handle. This long iron rod and the small iron rod are connected to this disc. The long iron rod needs to have a retractable function. The other end is connected to a two-and-a-half-inch round iron tube. The round iron tube is connected to twelve half-inch -sized iron rods. The twelve iron rods have to be connected to a disc and can be pulled out. Do you understand how it’s done?”

“Got it.” The blacksmith pointed at the coal stove lid. “What’s this thing for?”

“Make seven or eight of these separately. There’s this on top that can be rotated for ease of adjustment. Also, make a few of these iron clamps separately.”

The blacksmith nodded and pointed at the honeycomb coal molding machine.

“I have to think about how to make this. I’ll deliver it in three days at the latest.

It’s relatively wasteful to make this. It costs a total of four taels of silver.”

Li Yu nodded. “Alright, I’ll give you a deposit first. I’ll get someone to collect it in three days.”

After making the decision, Li Yu and Xing Hua got into the carriage and headed back. Just as they reached the house, they saw Chu Fu’s carriage coming from the opposite side and stopping at the door.

Chu Fu got out of the carriage with a thin middle-aged man and smiled at Li

Yu. “Madam Li, this is Boss Su. He’s the one who wants to sell that manor.”

Boss Su bowed to Li Yu. “Greetings, Madam Li.”

Li Yu smiled faintly. “Greetings, Boss Su.”

Li Yu brought Chu Fu and Su Qiangui to the front hall. Su Qiangui said, “Madam

Li, I spent nearly 6,000 taels of silver to buy the manor from Old Madam Zhou. This is the title deed. Madam Li, please accept it.”

So he came to give her the manor. How could there be anything free in the world? Li Yu pretended not to understand and smiled. “Boss Su, I’ve asked around. A manor like that is worth more than 8,000 taels of silver. I told Chief Chu to give it to you according to the market price. You don’t have to especially reduce the price.”

Su Qiangui turned to look at Chu Fu. “Chief Chu, look…”

Chu Fu looked at Su Qiangui and smiled. “Boss Su, we’ll do as Madam Li says.”

Seeing this, Su Qiangui could only stand up and bow to the two of them. ‘Yes, thank you, Madam Li. Thank you, Steward Chu.”

Seeing that the two had finished discussing, Chu Fu bade farewell and left. Li Yu asked Uncle Zhou and Su Qiangui to go to the government office to settle the procedures.

Uncle Zhou returned with the title deed and house deed and said excitedly to Li Yu, “Madam, Master grew up inside. There’s a hot spring in the manor that’s good for the body. Master was weak when he was young. Mr. Wen said that soaking in the hot spring is good for the body, so Old Master thought of a way to buy this manor. Thank you, Madam! You bought back the manor.”

“Uncle Zhou, seriously, that’s my family!” Li Yu also felt very happy. “Uncle

Zhou, go to the manor and see if there’s anything that needs repairing. When

Master comes back, we can give him a surprise!”

“Alright, I’ll look at it tomorrow,” Uncle Zhou agreed happily.

The next day, Uncle Zhou went to the farmstead. Ji Xiang went to the blacksmith’s shop to retrieve the beehive coal molder, as well as the fire tongs and the lid of the coal stove.

Li Yu picked up the honeycomb coal molding machine and fiddled with it a few times. She nodded in satisfaction. “Not bad. This master’s skills are very good.” Ji Xiang, Little Loach, and the others looked at those things strangely. Ji Xiang fiddled with it a few times. “Madam, what exactly is this for?”

“Go and see if the coal stove is ready. Then go to the back of the mountain at the Wang Family Village. I’ve dug the pit and dug a cart full of those black stones. Then I’ll dig a few boxes of clay and bring them back. You’ll know then.”

“Is that thing called a coal stove?” Ji Xiang seemed to understand. “Okay, I’ll go now.”

“Madam, we want to go with Uncle Xiang. ”

Li Yu waved her hand. “Go!”

“Thank you, Madam.” Little Loach and the others ran with Ji Xiang..
