Chapter 548: If You Like It, It's Good

"Hou Ye~Hou Ye~, how about these glasses?" Tang Ting saw that Chen Xu's face had changed drastically, and asked a little nervously.

"Well, yes, if you can stabilize this quality, you can open a glass factory soon!" Chen Xu came back to his senses and nodded again and again.

"Don't worry, Master Hou, I have summed up the smelting time of several kinds of glass, and at the same time found several ways to reduce bubbles, look at this plate I made the day before yesterday......" Tang Ting carefully took out a pale green transparent glass plate from under the table.

Chen Xu took it and looked at it carefully, "Hey, this is better, you can hardly see any bubbles, did you add any other substances?" ”

Tang Ting hurriedly smiled and said: "Master Hou, just add some burning and saltpeter, stir and place it for a while, but the amount is not easy to control, and at present, only one kind of ore can be used to remove bubbles with burning and saltpeter, and the others are not too obvious, and there will be something that cannot be melted under the glass solution, it is estimated that it is the one you said...... That ......"

"Chemical reaction!" Chen Xu reminded.

"Yes, yes, it's a chemical reaction, it is estimated that something in the ore has a chemical reaction with saltpeter burning, and the bubbles have been turned away!" Tang Ting nodded repeatedly.

"This kind of glass research is very successful, determine the required formula, and then let Zhao Qing arrange someone to collect a large number of materials, you go to the factory outside the city tomorrow to find Yingbu steward, let him arrange for you to build a workshop and smelting furnace, what equipment you need, let the hemp pole and Gong Shengsheng help, build the glass workshop as soon as possible, and after a large number of materials are also transported, you can start to make glass products in batches for sale, and when the time comes, you can ensure that a few of you count the money every day until your hands cramp, and the mother-in-law and concubine will not bring the same for a month!"

"Hou Ye rest assured, I promise to complete the task!" Tang Ting and the three helpers were so excited that they couldn't stand on their feet.

"By the way, you wait a minute!" Chen Xu suddenly remembered something, hurriedly returned to his office, and quickly picked up the remaining box of colorful crystal stones and put them on the table, picked out a yellow-green crystal with the darkest color from it and handed it to Tang Ting, "Use this crystal to help me pour a few round pieces of glass, one and a half minutes thick and two inches in diameter, I want to make a few sunglasses!" ”

"Use this piece to make me a bracelet, with a diameter of ......" Chen Xu took out a purple one and put it on the table as he spoke, thinking about the size of the fifth princess's hand, "The inner diameter is made into three inches." ”

Chen Xu then took out a slightly smaller pink crystal: "This is also a bracelet, and the inner diameter is made into two and a half inches!" ”

Another piece of green: "It's still a bracelet, the inner diameter is made into three inches!" ”

Looking at these crystals, Tang Ting and the three helpers kept adding their mouths.

Crystal is a precious gem since ancient times, extremely rare, only the royal and extremely wealthy families can afford it, this random piece is not to say priceless, at least it will be sold for tens of thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars, and the box of Hou Ye is more than ten yuan, exchanged for money......

Tang Ting didn't dare to think about it for a moment, and began to wipe the sweat on his forehead, this crystal worth hundreds of thousands of dollars was handed over to himself, if it was not successful...... It is estimated that it will die more ugly.

Three bracelets, Chen Xu naturally wanted a bowl of water to be flat, the water was gentle, the fifth princess and the little daughter Meng Wan who Meng Yi was diligently trying to give to his ruined little daughter Meng Wan a pair.

Chen Xu rummaged through the box a few more times, took out a colorless and transparent crystal stone from the box and put it on the table: "With this piece of glass poured into the same size and shape as last time, I will make two mirrors!" ”

"Don't worry, Master Hou, I will definitely help you do these things as soon as possible!" Tang Ting nodded busily.

Although he only stayed in the glass laboratory for more than ten minutes, Chen Xu was already sweating at this time, guarding the stove with a high temperature of thousands of degrees on a hot day, it was simply not a place for a marquis with fine skin and tender meat like him to stay, and if he stayed for ten more minutes, he felt that he would definitely be hot and angry, so he quickly escaped from the Academy of Sciences after a few words of explanation.

From ancient times to the present, marrying a wife is a matter of spending money.

The more wives you marry, the more money you will naturally spend.

Although Chen Xu is now a big family, the Hou Mansion has hundreds of people and two hundred horses, but there is no shortage of money and food, just his official rank of the Marquis of Qinghe's Title Processing Department has nearly two hundred stone of grain every month, and now he has been named a young master, adding another two hundred stone of grain every month, plus the emperor's reward every three or five times, these alone are more than enough to feed Chen Xu's family, not to mention the speed of making money every day in Qinghe Garden, there are seven or eight Qinghe stores in the country, as well as the shares of Huaxia Qianzhuang, This money is enough for Chen Xu to squander at will, and the more than 3,000 households around Qinghe Town have never collected a stone of grain.

Marrying three wives, it is natural to prepare three gifts, in the future generations, the bracelet is of course jade is good, but in this Daqin, if you can make a few pairs of crystal bracelets with bright and crystal clear colors, it will inevitably blind everyone's eyes.

As for the mirror, I sent the water gently and did not send the fifth princess and the little Lori who came over the tie-in, I am afraid that the two of them will chew on the root of their tongue when they go back to their parents' house, the fifth princess is better, and she may not be dissatisfied, but Meng Wan is not necessarily, the little Lori is small-minded, and she is covered by Meng Yi, an old rascal, and it will inevitably be very unhappy to meet in the future.

Although I haven't decided when to get married yet, I still have to prepare these things in advance.

After going home, take a cold shower and change into clean clothes, at this time it is already close to Shen Shi, the servants in the house have begun to eat dinner, but at this time the sun is still high, like a fireball hanging in the sky hot on the earth, the entire Guanzhong Plain is like a huge steamer, and Xianyang City is like a black tiger lying on the north bank of the Wei River, napping in the strong sun.

A young man dressed in black, with a hat and an iron sword, rode a black horse from the southeast, crossed the Weihe Bridge, and after the city gate showed the waist card of the Qinghe Marquis' Mansion, the soldiers guarding the city gate hurriedly let him go.

After entering the city, the man in black went straight to the Hou Mansion of Qinghe, and when the guard guarding the door nodded and said hello, the man in black rushed directly into the Hou Mansion, threw the horse to the groom who greeted him, and then strode into the backyard.

"Bang Dang~"

The door of the room was pushed open, startling Chen Xu, who was lying on the bamboo bed reading a book, and when he sat up, he immediately smiled and said, "Brother Yu is back, how is it, how about you go here to have fun?" ”

"Alas~" The man in black shook his head and sighed and took off the hat on his head.

"Hiss~~"

Looking at this beaten black and black face, purple and seriously deformed, Chen Xu gasped, jumped off the bamboo bed and circled around Yu Wuya twice, and asked in surprise: "Brother Yu, are you ...... Didn't you say to go and find friends, how...... How could he be beaten so miserably? ”

"Engong Mo mentions, I'm ashamed!" Yu Wuya walked to the table with two dark circles and swollen old cheeks, poured himself a large cup of herbal tea and drank it in a sip, and then sat down on the chair and began to be in a daze.

"You all get out!" Chen Xu waved his hand.

"Yes!" Spring, summer, autumn and winter, the four little maids hurriedly bowed and withdrew.

"Eun Gong, I fell in love with a woman!" After staying for a long time, Yu Wuya suddenly spoke.

"Ahem~" Chen Xu squirted out a mouthful of herbal tea directly, and the tears of coughing came out, and then asked with a strange face: "Could it be that you want to snatch love and be beaten by someone else's husband?" ”

"Engong, don't make trouble, I was injured by that woman?" Yu Wuya's face shook lightly a few times, and he said with a lonely expression.

Chen Xu was blazing with gossip for a while, moved a chair and sat in front of Yu Wuya, and said with an expectant face: "Brother Yu, tell me quickly, what kind of woman is she, is she not beautiful?" Gentle and gentle...... That doesn't seem to be very gentle, but according to your martial arts, you shouldn't be beaten so miserably, could it be that the woman is also a master of the world? ”

Yu Wuya shook his head: "I only heard that her name is Xia Zijin, but I don't know anything about the origin of the teacher, and now she lives on the Cuihua Peak of Taiyi Mountain, and she was the one who picked up Princess Qingning last time!" ”

"No wonder!" Chen Xu nodded suddenly, and then his face fell silent, "Then did you see Qingning this time?" How's it going? ”

Yu Wuya shook his head: "I was beaten down before I reached Cuihua Peak, and I also asked about Princess Qingning's situation, and she said that she would not be able to tell me until I won her......"

"And then you were beaten into a pig's head?"

"Well, she's very powerful, I thought it was because she didn't recover last time, but this time she was beaten even worse, but I won't admit defeat, I'll go to Cuihua Peak again in a few days......"

Chen Xu sighed and stood up, patted Yu Wuya's shoulder and said, "Brother Yu, it's not like this to soak women, you can't just be abused, you have to use other methods to please her......"

"No, I must win against her, she said, when I win against her, she will agree to marry me whenever I win!"

"What did she really say?"

"Hmm!" Yu Wuya nodded.

Chen Xu shrugged his shoulders and said: "Then I can't do anything, the weather has been hot recently, I won't run around, you can cultivate in the mansion, if there is anything you need my help with, I will definitely not refuse, even if you can't beat her when you are seventy years old, and you still want to marry her, I can apply to the emperor to lead a few hundred Xuanwu guards to help......"

Yu Wuya covered his cheeks and was full of resentment: "Engong is so dismissive of me? ”

"No, I just think that good men don't fight with women, forget it, just like it!"

"Master Hou, Fusu Gongzi is here!" While the two were chatting, the doorman came to report.

Yu Wuya hurriedly put the hat on his head and ran away with the iron sword, this appearance did not match his usual chic image of facing the wind, it was better to hide.
