"Second brother, look, this is the glass window!"

An hour and a half later, pointing to a window that Chen Mu had just installed, Li Yuanjia said weakly: "Colorless, transparent, the sunlight can shine in without hindrance, as long as you open a few windows like this around your study, even if it is winter, you don't need to light candles during the day...... Alas. ”

When it came to the end, our King Han couldn't help but sigh lowly.

What a mistake!

He really didn't expect that Chen Mu and the four of them would work together, and it would take more than an hour to install a window, and he even accidentally broke a glass in the middle!

And......

"Why is this happening? Why is it ...... Such a violation? ”

The moment the glass window was installed, this strange thought rose in Li Yuanjia's heart, and it became more and more intense in a moment!

It's ugly!

It's like antique porcelain has been broken and then framed with a piece of glass!

He forgot that the old-fashioned building of the Ganlu Hall was basically made of wood, and there was no trace of "modern materials" except for the floor tiles, so it was like installing glass windows...... It's like a Nordic decoration style with a table of eight immortals in the room, which makes people instantly feel the urge to smash it!

"So, you should install it in your own home first."

At this moment, Li Yuanjia began to regret entering the palace for the first time because he was in a hurry to pretend to be forced: "In that case, you can at least know this problem in advance, and then give the choice of whether to smash it to the second child......"

"This is glass? Did you make it? ”

Just when he was a little apprehensive in his heart, Li Shimin looked at the glass window that had just been installed with bright eyes, and couldn't help but step forward and touch it.

That action is the same as when I first saw Qu Yuan Plow!

What those workshops outside the Han Wangfu City are doing, in fact, Li Shimin is very clear, so there are a group of people making that kind of beautiful glass, of course he has heard of it.

But before that, Li Shimin didn't have any interest in this thing.

Because as the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin has actually seen a lot of colored glass, and knows that that thing is almost useless except for being good-looking!

So even if he saw the word glass, the emperor was quite unimpressed.

Glass? Glass?

It's just a word, is there a gross difference?

After receiving Li Yuanjia's letter yesterday, if it weren't for the fact that this kid had brought him too many surprises, and the brothers hadn't seen each other for a long time, Li Shimin wouldn't have let him bring someone into the palace to give him glass.

But the emperor never imagined that the glass mentioned in his brother's letter turned out to be such a thing.

For an ancient, the appearance of completely transparent glass in front of him will undoubtedly bring a very strong sense of impact, even if it is the rich and well-informed Emperor His Majesty, it is inevitable that he will be a little dizzy at this time.

Good...... Pretty!

The afternoon sun is the most intense, so even in early spring, the sunlight sprinkled on the glass is still bright enough, so that Li Shimin can't help but gasp.

"Yes, second brother, this is glass!"

Li Yuanjia, who was annoyed, stretched out his finger and knocked on the glass window that had just been installed, sighed and said, "A hundred pieces of things, they just broke a piece!" ”

“……”

After listening to his words, Li Shimin's eyelids jumped, and he was suddenly a little speechless.

However, when he just heard his younger brother say that a box of glass is only three pieces, but the value is as high as three hundred yuan, he just thinks that this kid is deliberately exaggerating, but now looking at the installed glass windows, Li Shimin feels that it is worth thousands of dollars, and even one hundred yuan is cheap!

Sure enough, it's a fetish!

Thinking that he would not have to hide in a dark room in the future, but could only rely on candles or something to illuminate in the future, Li Shimin was full of joy, and his face couldn't help but show a smile.

And seeing the second brother laughing, Li Yuanjia finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Well, it seems that you don't have to be afraid of being scolded.

But he breathed a sigh of relief, Li Yuanjia saw that the second brother raised his eyebrows, and chuckled: "Eleven Lang, according to what you said, this piece of glass is a hundred guan, so if all the windows of this Ganlu Hall are replaced...... Hehe, wouldn't it cost tens of thousands? ”

The emperor's expression that seemed to be smiling but not smiling made Li Yuanjia's heart jump suddenly.

"Uh......"

After glancing around, the corners of Li Yuanjia's mouth subconsciously twitched several times.

Isn't it?

This is the manna hall in Daxing Palace, the emperor's bedroom. In addition to the sleeping place, Li Shimin's study is also here...... The most important thing is that the rooms in the palace are very large, far from being comparable to Li Yuanjia's Han Wangfu, if you really replace all the windows......

After thinking about it secretly, Li Yuanjia's face suddenly became bitter, and he said with a dry smile: "Hehe, second brother, a hundred pieces of one piece is what the younger brother said casually...... And these are all courtiers who are filial to you, you don't care how much you spend...... Ahem, but the younger brother's family background is not thick after all, and he can only change the windows of the Ganlu Hall for you, and there will be weakness in other places! ”

When he said these words, the heartache on Li Yuanjia's face could not be concealed at all.

Ganlu Hall is only a small part of Daxing Palace, but after all, it is the emperor's bedroom, so can the territory be smaller? How many rooms! If you really make every room bright, how can dozens of pieces of glass be? At least two or three hundred dollars!

So Li Yuanjia's words are half-true and half-false, and no one can see anything.

It's true to be a little distressed, but it's fake to be so distressed.

No way, this is really the emperor's greatest!

In fact, when he thought of the money he threw back and forth in front of the glass workshop, Li Yuanjia wanted to open his mouth to collect the money, but as soon as he saw Li Shimin's face, his thoughts naturally dissipated without a trace - he really thought he was a traverser, so he dared to do business with the emperor?

And even if Li Shimin is willing to give money, how should this price be reported?

The offer of one hundred yuan, Li Yuanjia will never dare.

Even if the cumbersomeness of the process and the craftsmanship of the craftsmen are not enough, the current glass production cost is still very high, and then add up the previous R & D expenses, the cost of a piece of glass is a few dollars! If the process is improved and the craftsmanship increases, one or two dollars can be done; If large-scale production is carried out, assembly lines, standardization, modularization or something, it is appropriate to spend a few hundred dollars a piece.

Under such circumstances, do you really dare to report a hundred yuan?

Li Yuanjia never dared to think that there was something to hide from the emperor, so in the future, if the second child knew that he had cheated him, the consequences would ......

So don't talk about money or anything, I'll do it for you!

It's just that Li Yuanjia's careful thinking didn't make the emperor give up exploring, but Li Shimin narrowed his eyes and glanced at him thoughtfully: "Eleven Lang, it seems that you want to make a lot of money with this glass......"
