Chapter 119: Glass Mirror
The craftsman did not disappoint him.
Within two days, the flat glass was fired, and then, many things could be prepared.
The primary school and the greenhouse, one only needs to be bound, and the other has not yet been built, which are the most basic work, and there is not much technical content, so his focus is on the glass mirror.
"Uncle Wen Quan, can you find the person I asked you to find?"
Fang Yiai asked.
"Found it."
Fang Wenquan replied first, and then couldn't help but say worriedly: "They are all people who are about to die, what is Erlang looking for these people to do?" It's going to be alchemy! ”
He was frightened by his thoughts, and hurriedly persuaded bitterly: "Erlang Pill is so poisonous, you are still young, you must not indulge in this way!" ”
"Uncle Wen Quan, don't worry, I came to them just to produce glass mirrors." Fang Yiai smiled lightly and explained.
He is an atheist, and naturally understands that there is a way to live forever in the world, so how can he indulge in it.
"Really?"
Fang Wenquan stared at him suspiciously. Seeing Fang Yiai nodding solemnly, he breathed a sigh of relief, otherwise Fang Yiai would go astray, and he would not be able to explain to Fang Xuanling.
"Now that the flat glass is available, they can start the work, this is the method of production, everything is up to them, and they must take protective measures."
Fang Yiai handed over a piece of paper and told him repeatedly.
Datang's industrial level was backward, and without silver nitrate, he could not make silver-plated glass, and the method used was naturally the most primitive, tin foil and mercury glass method.
The tin beating process has been there since the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and the tin foil is ready-made.
Mercury is toxic and volatile, not only inhaled through breathing, but also dangerous in skin contact.
The love of the house that spares his life like gold will naturally not be in danger by himself.
Fang Yiai had to find another way, and he didn't want the people of Zhuang to take risks, so he invited a group of perennial alchemists.
They have already been poisoned by mercury, maybe they want to make alchemy for longevity, or they have family concerns, and they are hired with a lot of money, and both parties take what they need, and the sins in their hearts can be lighter.
"These people have been poisoned for a long time, and their lives are short, there is no need to care about these, they themselves are afraid that they don't care." Fang Wenquan asked with a wry smile.
"No, this matter is not negotiable, masks and protective clothing must be worn, otherwise you can't enter the work area, there is no salary, you see if they listen." Fang Yiai said solemnly.
Although these people have long been poisoned by mercury and their lives are in danger, they cannot be ignored, otherwise what is the difference between harming people's lives.
Therefore, everyone is equipped with an activated carbon mask, and the clothes are also covered with activated carbon.
He even asked the workers, after producing glass mirrors, to brush a layer of glue mixed with activated carbon on the back.
"What about the factory, has it been repaired?"
This kind of factory is naturally far away from the crowd, and it is not convenient to put it in the courtyard, and the mercury leakage is harmful, so a factory was built with cement deep in the mountains.
"It's already built and ready to go." Fang Wenquan replied.
There is a building weapon like cement, and it is very fast to build.
……
Soon after.
Chang'an, Dongshi.
An inconspicuous shop opened quietly, but within half a day, the news caused a sensation in the city.
No way.
It's so dazzling! It's even a little ...... Glare!
There are dozens of mirrors in front of the door, reflecting the sunlight all around, and the few people passing by who are not shaken by them arouse people's interest.
As a result, the front of the door was full of people.
"It's a mirror!"
If you look closely, you can see what it's for, but the surprise is, "What kind of mirror is this?" It's so clear! ”
Someone said, subconsciously wanted to reach out and touch, but was stopped by his companion, "I didn't hear it, forbidden to touch." ”
"The figure in the mirror is much more real than the bronze mirror, it can't be a demon mirror, right?"
As soon as these words came out, the people on the left and right were stunned for a moment, and subconsciously stayed away.
The shopkeeper walked out with a smile, and everyone asked......
"Shopkeeper, what kind of mirror is this?"
"Is this mirror for sale? How much does it cost? ”
The shopkeeper pressed down with both hands, and replied loudly one by one, "This is the glass mirror newly invented by the second young master of Fang." ”
"Second Young Master Fang invented it!"
Now the messy sound is gone, I don't think there's anything strange, the name of Fang Yiai is so easy to use.
The shopkeeper continued: "When you open a shop here, you naturally want to sell it. ”
"What is the price of the shopkeeper?"
"The glass mirror is divided into three grades, the makeup mirror that you carry with you is one hundred times, and the dressing mirror is three hundred times."
As he spoke, the shopkeeper walked up to the red silk and opened the red silk with a "sigh", and said, "The fitting mirror is six hundred times." ”
The people nearby were surprised, I don't know if they were frightened by the price, or because they saw such a big mirror for the first time.
Seeing that everyone did not move, the shopkeeper added, "There is only one side of the fitting mirror, and all the guest officers are on a first-come, first-served ......."
After a short silence, the pot exploded in an instant, and people could no longer sit still.
"I want this interview mirror!"
This sound, like the charge of the general attack, immediately became noisy at the scene......
"Why do you want to! This mirror old man is coming, and I will go out for 800 times! ”
"I'm out a thousand!"
The shopkeeper's heart jumped violently, he didn't expect that the business was so good, and his kung fu rose by 600 in an instant!
However, he suppressed the idea of trying it out.
Politely explained: "I'm sorry for the two guest officers, you have to talk about credibility in business, this interview mirror is this guest officer's, if you two like it, the next batch will come over in a few days, you can also look at the others, there are only 30 vanity mirrors today, and there are only 100 makeup mirrors." ”
Seeing that there was no hope for the fitting mirror, the two did not bother too much, and immediately turned to other places, otherwise they would all be sold out.
Those who can afford it are naturally rich people, and there is more than one wife and concubine in the family, often one person buys a few noodles.
Soon.
When the news reached the ears of the women in the city, all the women went crazy and immediately sent someone to buy it.
However, most of them were one step too late and returned in vain.
Serving in the palace of Wang Jue.
Inner house.
Wang, one of Susan's good sisters, reprimanded with a straight face: "Useless things, why can't you even buy a glass mirror." ”
"Do you want Sister Susan to help and buy one from Fang Yuai." She bit her lip and thought.
She has a strong personality and is reluctant to open up to people, but she wants this glass mirror too much.
……
Palace.
Li Shimin came to the Lizheng Palace, and the old eunuch Wang Zhong followed behind, holding a tray covered with red envelopes in his hand.
"Queen, I got a treasure today."
Lao Li said with a smile that he planned to surprise Empress Changsun.
This morning, Fang Yiai sent someone to send dozens of vanity mirrors, but there were too many people in Lao Li's harem. This is sophisticated, he still understands that this is the thickest thigh in the world.
