Chapter 584: Join forces to block
When the silver ingots are put into the furnace, when the silver ingots melt, the "glass auxiliary material pack" will work at the same time, it looks like the silver plays a role, and at the same time, Li Mu is using the basic function of the system to 'exchange', so that the silver disappears in the furnace, so that it is seamless.
In fact, as Li Mu expected, when Li Shimin saw the silver ingots melting little by little, and the glass crystallized with the melting of the silver ingots, this magical scene made his eyes pop out.
"Li Mu, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I really couldn't believe that there was such a magical thing in this world. Silver ingots and sand can be turned into transparent glass! Isn't that a little bit of gold? ”
Li Mugang wanted to correct Li Shimin, but suddenly thought about it again, originally in Datang, glass was more expensive than silver, and relatively cheap silver became relatively valuable glass, which is indeed a kind of stone into gold, Li Shimin was not wrong.
"Your Majesty, the words of turning stones into gold are not enough to be believed. But since mastering this method of making glass, the minister has begun to believe it. Chen was thinking, maybe the things in this world that I thought were impossible can actually be done, but I just didn't find the right way. ”
"I have to believe it." Li Shimin looked at the liquid glass in the furnace and said, "Is there still a way to turn the glass into silver ingots?" ”
Li Mu shook his head and said, "This process is irreversible, but it may be reversed, but the minister didn't find a way." ”
Li Shimin frowned and said: "Silver is one of the currencies in circulation, if it is used in large quantities to make glass, the people may not have money to use." I thought that this glass still can't be done more. ”
"Your Majesty." Li Mu Zhengse said: "The minister also thinks so, the Central Plains has lacked gold and silver since ancient times, and the gold and silver in circulation now are mostly transferred from Persia and other places, because of their scarce quantity, so the value is quite high, and we trade with the countries of the Western Regions, so they take a lot of advantage." But Your Majesty, please rest assured, now this method of firing glaze is only mastered by the minister, and the minister has no time to burn the glaze all the time, so even if you want more, you can't go anywhere. ”
Li Shimin said in disbelief: "Li Mu, I just saw that you didn't use any special means, in the same way, wouldn't it be possible to change people?" ”
"Your Majesty, the minister just said that there are two key points in firing glass, one is silver, and the other is fire, especially above silver. The heat is a bit indescribable, it can only be based on feeling, and then practice makes perfect. As long as you find it once, it won't be difficult in the future. But this first time, I don't know when I can try it, it's like the so-called talent or understanding, which can't be taught. At least he has taught Changsun Chong, and he has not succeeded once so far. ”
"Hmm......" Li Shimin glanced at Li Mu and saw that his expression didn't seem to be fake, so he didn't continue to ask. He would be so easy to believe because he was involved the whole time, and if Li Mu lied, it would be too easy to debunk, and he only needed to find someone to try it according to his steps.
But how did he know that Li Mu's secret method has nothing to do with any heat, silver, the focus is on the 'glass auxiliary material package' produced by the system store, without this thing, with the existing conditions, it is simply impossible to mass-produce glass.
Li Shimin followed Li Mu together, poured the glass liquid into the mold, waited for it to reheat, and then turned into solid glass, and watched Li Mu cut off the burrs with a glass knife and turned it into a whole square glass, and finally experienced the whole process of making glass. After this batch of glass was finished, it was getting late, and Li Shimin had to go back to the palace.
Li Mu took the remaining half of the ox leg to Li Shimin and sent it all the way to the valley.
"Your Majesty, it will only be ten days before the first department of the Spring Festival, and the minister plans to return to the Internal Affairs Office to share the worries of the monarch after the Spring Festival. Now the affairs of the Internal Affairs Office, Changsun Chong, Xu Ji and they can all deal with it, and if there is something that can't be handled, the minister will not care. Waiting for the title of the minister's gold list, please don't forget to promise your majesty. ”
"I remember, if you can really get the double champion, I will grant you the right to dispose of it, and there will be additional surprises for you. However, I have to remind you that it is not so easy to take the top prize, I have already heard the letter, and the whole Ministry of Rites, in order to prevent you from winning the top prize, has gathered a lot of great Confucians, and they want to target you. ”
Li Mu frowned and said, "Your Majesty, how do they target the ministers, isn't it Your Majesty that you're here to ask the question?" ”
"The topics of the regular department are from the Ministry of Rites, such as pasting scriptures, clear calculations, etc., they are all coming up with the questions. I only give you the topic of strategy and subject, and if you don't want to talk about it, I will not be able to reveal the topic to you. ”
Li Muxin said, this imperial examination that he saw in the TV series is very different. But it's understandable to think about it, after all, this is the Tang Dynasty, not the Ming and Qing dynasties, the imperial examination has just been formed, there are no certain rules, and the subjects and methods of the examination are still very primitive.
As a person who has experienced the college entrance examination, has a systematic body, and never forgets his skills, he really doesn't feel afraid. Thinking of this, Li Mu said confidently: "Your Majesty, rest assured, no matter how they embarrass the ministers, the ministers will definitely let them eat the bitter fruits, and the title of the gold list will be named." Everyone is taking the same question, the question is too difficult, and their people can't answer it, but they are not talented, but they are still confident, and they are a little better than their people. ”
"Huh, so confident?"
"Of course I am confident. The opponent of the minister is backed by the gate valve or the scholar clan, and the minister is backed by His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and the background is harder than theirs, what are the ministers afraid of! ”
Li Shimin laughed and said, "You kid hasn't seen any other skills, but this ability to slap horses is increasing day by day." Okay, I won't bother you these days, take a good test, I won't help you, but if you overwhelm the crowd, I won't wronged you, it should be your champion, I will give it to you. ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Gone." Li Shimin waved his hand and got on the horse with Gonggong Gao, Li Mumu sent him off for a while, then turned around and walked back to the small courtyard. Bai Qiaoqiao and Li Zhien have not come back from the city, and Li Mu is alone, a little lonely.
The rhinoceros was given to Li Ji by him and went to be a 'heavy armored cavalry', and the state was next to the Hetao, and some of it was pasture, so it was not a problem to feed. With these rhinos in front of the two armies, it is definitely a deterrent, and no one can withstand the furious charge of a group of rhinos.
The elephant is also gone, and was pulled by Gongsun Kang to repair the roadway, the newly paved bluestone, the foundation that has just been laid, if it is trampled by manpower, it may not be compacted in ten days, but with the elephant, it will be solved by walking a few back and forth. Elephants are also very smart, and with a little training, they are a good helper, and an elephant can top at least ten people.
