Chapter 43: It's not so easy to take
Han Cheng's heart was very panicked, and Han Lucheng's heart was very painful!
Five hundred?!
Oh my God!
If you take out these 500 pieces, you can buy a small yard in Chang'an City. Even if it is a wave, it is enough for the family to live a comfortable life for a lifetime!
So much money just because of this little piece of shiny stuff?
Anyway, in the silence all around, Han Cheng was so flustered that he almost jumped out. He opened his mouth to say something, whether it was to thank the king or try his best to excuse himself, he always wanted to say something, but after a while, Han Cheng realized that he couldn't seem to say anything, he could only swallow and spit one bite after another......
When the blacksmiths made the iron pot before, how much did the king reward?
Wang Pu made the best white paper in Chang'an, how much did the king reward?
And Li Zhong and Chen Mu, when they first used movable metal type to print words that satisfied the king, and when they made the carriage and overturned carriage that the king liked very much, how much reward did they get?
All of their rewards combined, do they get more than this glass workshop?
So after the king's words were left behind, all eyes looked at Han Cheng. Some people's eyes are full of envy, while some people's eyes are not only envious, but also some things that make people feel a little frightened.
The reactions of these people had no effect on Li Yuanjia, and all his attention was on the small piece of glass in his hand at this moment!
There is no doubt that this is the glass he is familiar with!
Transparent, sparkling in the sun.
But a little different from the glass in my memory, although it can be said to be transparent, it still has a little bit of color, and it is not so pure; And on this small piece of glass, you can also see very obvious small black dots, small yellow dots or small green dots, that is to say, impurities are inevitably mixed in during production!
More than a thousand years later, this thing can't even be called a "product".
But at this moment, on the sixth day of the first month of the thirteenth year of Zhenguan, Li Yuanjia's eyes looked at this piece of glass as if he saw a natural diamond of the same volume - please believe that in Li Yuanjia's heart at this time, this glass is really no worse than a diamond of the same volume, and even more precious!
So what is the five hundred yuan that made Han Cheng so shocked that they were almost speechless? Don't say five hundred, if necessary, even five thousand Li Yuanjia is willing to give it!
Compared to this thing, what are iron pots, tables and chairs?
Even the improvement of papermaking and the creation of movable type printing may be comparable in a historical sense, but when it comes to "money", are they all younger brothers?
Just when Li Yuanjia was immersed in excitement and imagination, Han Cheng finally woke up from the shock. Especially when he found that Han Lucheng and the guards around him were looking at him, his heart couldn't help but tremble, and he hurriedly leaned down: "King Xie is very kind, but I rely on the king's guidance to make this glass, and I don't dare to take credit!" And this is originally outside my equal share, and the king is ashamed to reward us so much...... Take back these rewards, my lord! ”
Five hundred guan was very tempting, really tempting, but after Han Cheng's mind cleared up, he also knew that he couldn't take this money!
Too much!
If he is a petty official, even if it is a random civilian, he will be at ease with this money, and there is nothing to worry about. But as a servant of the Han Palace, he is the king's whole person, wouldn't he be in trouble for himself if he took this money?
"Huh? No? ”
Awakened by Han Cheng's voice, Li Yuanjia suppressed the excitement in his heart, and was stunned after glancing at him.
As soon as my mind turned, I immediately figured out what was going on.
"Hehe, there is no reason for this king's reward to be taken back!"
Clearly, Li Yuanjia didn't mean to take the reward back, but just glanced around lightly and smiled: "And this reward is not so easy to take...... Han Lucheng, where is your father now? ”
"Back to the king, my father should be in the city mansion today."
I don't know why it suddenly hit my father, Han Lucheng couldn't help but be stunned, and hurriedly bowed down and replied.
"Send someone back, call him here, and by the way, let him bring the five hundred yuan bounty with him!"
"Yes, my lord."
Han Lucheng immediately withdrew from the yard and found a servant to go back to invite his father.
And Li Yuanjia glanced at Han Cheng at this time, and said indifferently: "Since this king has rewarded you with such a large sum of money, he naturally has his reasons!" Han Cheng, if you are rewarded, give me a good ...... If anyone looks red and looks for your trouble, you will come to this king, and this king will call the shots for you! ”
"Goo-dong!"
After subconsciously swallowing and spitting, Han Cheng hurriedly leaned down and bowed: "Yes, thank you for the reward!" ”
"Thank you, Great King, for the reward!"
As Han Cheng bowed down, the craftsmen and handymen of the other glass workshops in the courtyard all knelt down at this time. At this time, many people are overjoyed, because if the five hundred points are divided, everyone can fall a lot.
If you save a little flower, it is a trivial matter to be comfortable for more than ten years!
Li Yuanjia naturally didn't know what these people were thinking, his thoughts were all on the glass in his hand, and after looking at it for a long time, he waved his hand: "Okay, let's go back...... Luzhong, let the guards guard the courtyard gate, no one is allowed to enter or leave! ”
"Yes, King!"
The head of the guards who followed Li Yuanjia was stunned for a moment, and immediately shouted yes.
Ignoring the sudden change in the faces of those craftsmen and handymen, Li Yuanjia nodded at Han Cheng and said, "Come on, come into the house with me, and talk about this glass matter......"
……
said that he wanted to talk about the glass, but after entering the house, Li Yuanjia did not speak immediately, but stood in front of the window with the glass in his hand and looked left and right, silent.
It was quite strange in his heart, but Han Cheng didn't dare to speak, just stood with his hands down, waiting quietly.
After a long time, Li Yuanjia suddenly spoke: "Han Cheng, do you know why I let people guard the far gate and not allow anyone to enter or leave?" ”
"This ...... I don't know if it's small. ”
Han Cheng didn't dare to guess his thoughts, so he immediately shook his head.
"Hehe, because I don't want anyone to know what glass is done."
Glancing at Han Cheng deeply, Li Yuanjia chuckled and said, "So if nothing else, in the next few years, in order to protect the secret of glass manufacturing from leaking, I am afraid that you will have to live in Zhuangzi all the time, and you can't go out casually!" ”
After listening to his words, Han Cheng's face suddenly changed: "Huh? Always living here? ”
"Well, all the time."
Squinting his eyes slightly, Li Yuanjia said lightly: "So the five hundred yuan I rewarded you with is really not so easy to get......
