Alexander spent almost the entirety of the next week teaching the cooks the things he wanted to be served on the wedding dinner table, the most important one being the wedding cake.
Baking a cake without an oven was possible, but a pain in the ass.
And whilst this training, one day he took a day off because Takfiz had informed him that all the necessary facilities had been set up.
The coal briquettes plant was complete.
So, naturally, Alexander had to go see that for himself.
As he made his way there, Alexander had two options on how to use the coal briquettes.
One was selling it in the open market as cheap fuel, both for civilian and industrial use.
One might think that daily output of 2,000 tons of coal might be too much production for civilian consumption and most of it would go to industrial use.
But one would be surprised by how much firewood, which was roughly equivalent in energy density (Joules per kg) to the briquettes, a regular peasant would consume.
