Tang Mo and Li Lingyue returned to the capital after half a day, and because it was getting late, the trip to the West Market had to wait until tomorrow. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The next morning, the two left the inn where they were staying and headed for the West Market.

The place where the literati of the West City lived was called Chunkaku, and many literati gathered here every day to chant poems or talk about the world, and of course there were literati who wanted to do things.

When Tang Mo and Li Lingyue came to the Spring Pavilion of the West Market, there were already more than a dozen literati gathered here, and they were talking about the recent political affairs in the world.

"Speaking of which, the current Empress Tang is known to everyone, and she is nothing more than following the example of Empress Wu and seeking to usurp the throne." A literati said.

Another literati seemed to feel the same way, "Yes, the heart of Empress Tang is well known to passers-by, and it is shameful to want to usurp the world of the Ming and Zhu families, and it is bound to fail." ”

Another person said, "Empress Tang's trip is really against the sky, and she will inevitably suffer the consequences of disasters." ”

Hearing these people comment on the behavior of the White Lotus Sect Leader who had taken away herself, Tang Mo couldn't help but feel a little better in her heart, and she found a stone bench next to her and sat down, ready to hear what they would say next.

But these literati seemed to notice Tang Mo's appearance, and then began to talk about the Qinglou, avoiding the main topic.

When these literati talked about the Qinglou, Tang Mo's face couldn't help but blush, and he didn't want to continue listening, so he got up and wanted to leave here.

Tang Mo stood up and walked outside with Li Lingyue.

The two of them walked a few steps outside just when they saw a woman approaching.

She was holding a folding fan, and there was a faint sadness in her eyebrows.

With such a temperament, Tang Mo couldn't help but look sideways.

The woman's face was delicate, and her body was very delicate, and as soon as the woman appeared, the men all stopped and looked at her.

"It's Miss Luo here."

"Miss Luo is more beautiful than before, and her style is a little more prosperous."

"Miss Luo's talent can be Li Du in the middle of the women."

This is already a very high evaluation, which made Tang Mo's departure stop, is this Luo girl really a talented girl?

Miss Luo slowly walked into the Spring Pavilion and found a stone bench to sit down.

She has a good literary talent, but it's a pity that women can't participate in the imperial examination, even if she is talented, but basically useless.

In desperation, she wandered around the West Market and recited poems with the men here, which was also a little relief from the sorrow in her heart.

Miss Luo was sitting in the Spring Pavilion at the moment, her eyes swept over the Spring Pavilion, and she unexpectedly saw two other women, both of whom were extremely beautiful, and one of them was looking at her curiously.

"Are you Miss Luo?" The woman who was looking at her suddenly spoke.

"Yes," Miss Luo nodded subconsciously.

It was Tang Mo who spoke, and continued to ask at this moment, "Miss Luo, if you have time, I want to invite you to my house for a gathering, the little girl is not talented, she knows some calligraphy and painting skills, and I want to ask Miss Luo for advice." ”

"Going to your house?" At this moment, Miss Luo's heart couldn't help but rise, and after thinking about it again, she finally decided to agree, she was tired of living like this every day without any changes.

"Okay," Miss Luo said with a smile on her face.

Seeing that Miss Luo agreed, Tang Mo was naturally very happy, nodded, and left the Spring Pavilion with Miss Luo.

Planning in his heart how to persuade Miss Luo to be his shopkeeper, Tang Mo and Miss Luo got into the carriage together.

Li Lingyue drove the carriage, and the carriage drove away from the capital and went to the house located in the suburbs.

Getting off the carriage, Tang Mo took Miss Luo into the house.

In the study, Tang Mo drew a picture of a bird falling on a tree and gave it to Miss Luo, and then expressed his heart.

"Miss Luo, I have an important matter that I need your help with now, if you agree, then I will have an income of at least two hundred taels of silver for you every month, this matter is very important, so I must find someone who is absolutely reliable to do, and you are the person I think is reliable." Tang Mo said.

"But I don't know your name, sister?" Miss Luo said.

"My name is Mo Qing," Tang Mo said.

"Oh, Sister Mo." A smile appeared on Miss Luo's face, "What is it, you can tell me specifically, if it is appropriate, I will promise you." ”

"That's right, I want to make a completely transparent glass, and now there is still a lack of a big shopkeeper, so I want to ask you to be this big shopkeeper." Tang Mo said.

"Completely transparent glass?" Miss Luo said with an expression of disbelief, "How is it possible, isn't the glass opaque?" ”

"That's right, what I say next, please don't spread it, it's a trade secret." Tang Mo said.

"Okay," Miss Luo nodded.

Tang Mo continued, "The reason why the glass is opaque is because it contains extremely small impurities, as long as the tiny impurities in it are removed, the glass will naturally become transparent." ”

"Really?" Miss Luo was still a little incredulous, but she didn't continue to ask, because she also knew that some secrets should not be known.

"Of course it's true!" Tang Mo said.

"Would you like to be the big treasurer?" Tang Mo asked.

"If the glass can really be made transparent, I think there will be many people who love it, and there will definitely be no need to worry about the sales, then I will be the big shopkeeper, but in addition to two hundred taels of silver, I also want a dry share." Miss Luo said.

"One percent is a bit too much, and you will be given two points at most." Tang Mo said.

Next, Tang Mo and Miss Luo began to rub their tongues against each other on the issue of dry stocks, and finally set the dry stocks at five points.

Tang Mo contributed to the land, and Miss Luo came out, and the two agreed that in the end, in addition to 200 taels of silver per month, Miss Luo would take five points of dry shares, and the dry shares could be resold or dividends by themselves.

Tang Mo still remembers the techniques and craftsmanship of making glass in her previous life, which is also the confidence of her decision to make glass to expand her wealth and fame.

Miss Luo took over the position of the big shopkeeper, Tang Mo first gave her an advance of this month's salary, which has Tang Mo's own considerations, she can't let others just work without taking money, so the first step is to send money to Miss Luo first.

Miss Luo was happy when she took the salary, but Tang Mo also followed up and assigned her the first task.

"This is five hundred taels of silver, you need to recruit ten loyal and reliable craftsmen first, and purchase a batch of raw materials for making glass, the raw materials do not need too much, the first phase is mainly experiments, in addition to craftsmen, you also need to find four or five supervisors, the secret recipe of transparent glass is the top priority, and it must not be passed on."

Miss Luo didn't show a worried expression, but she looked eager to try, and after taking the silver, she left with Li Lingyue.
