Outside the gate of Zhenbeibao Industrial Manufacturing Factory, the blacksmith who was already slightly blessed stood at the door, and when he saw Liu Renyu from afar, he greeted the general with a smile, and said: "Lord Liu, you want to come here, why don't you say it earlier, and you can bring the people under your hands to come out to greet you." ”

"Daddy Zhao, there's no need for that, I'm just here to take a look. Are you still comfortable as a factory director? ”

"Do you want to hear the truth, or do you like to hear it?"

"Honestly, of course."

"But it's uncomfortable, you say that you are a blacksmith, you have been playing iron for most of your life, since you became the director of this factory, you haven't touched the hammer much, the daily price is to turn around, and there is nothing to do, you see that the forehead has gained weight. A few days ago, I wanted to hit the iron, but before he hit it a few times, he couldn't beat it, alas! ”

"Hehe, Daddy Zhao, although you don't strike iron now, but in fact, your contribution is greater than when you hit iron, among these craftsmen, I can only believe you, so please be the director of this factory for me, manage this factory, do you say it will be successful?"

"Cheng, Cheng, I know, a few days ago, I learned something in night school, do you see if that's what you said, you just died after doing your best, what's the matter, is that what you said?"

"Yes, that's what I said, but I want you to live a long life, and I don't want you to die."

"Haha, I know, I know."

"By the way, Daddy Zhao, can your Cuizhi still be raised?"

"Hey, it's bad there, the girl in the family has been suffering with her since she was a child, she is pregnant with a baby, how can she not do things, but the second dog specially invited several maids to take care of Cuizhi at home, and she didn't let Cuizhi do anything at all, she was really squeamish." When Father Zhao said this, he seemed to disagree with He Ergou's style.

"Ergou is a person who is going to be a father, and it is a good thing to be kind to his own mother-in-law."

"Well, that's the reason, but I still feel ............"

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about them, Daddy Zhao, can the mirror I explained before I go out to the field king be made?"

"It's done, it's done, my lord, you are really a genius, this mirror can be carefully and clearly, much better than our bronze mirror."

"The method of making mirrors is not original to me, it is all figured out by the people over there from Tessie, and I just learned it. By the way, since the mirror is made, take me to see it. ”

"Okay, let's come along."

Liu Renyu, Liu Renjie and others, under the leadership of Zhao Datie, made a detour in the factory and came to the glass factory in the factory.

In the inner lobby of this factory, there are all kinds of glass, including cups, water bottles, glass windows with wooden frames, and the most striking glass mirrors.

On the shelves in the lobby, there are three types of glass mirrors.

The first is to use ordinary elm wood as the frame, and the lens is inlaid in it, the wood is not very good, and the frame is not carved; the second is to use precious nanmu as the frame, the wood is good, and the carving is also very fine; The third type, with copper as the frame, is extremely finely made, which is really good-looking tight.

Seeing such a strange thing, Sun Wuxian, the living treasure who was following Liu Renyu, finally couldn't help but ask Liu Renyu for instructions: "My lord, that mirror is really strangely tight, and the little one wants to take a look." ”

"Let's go see it, but you have to be careful, if you break a mirror, you have to accompany 10 taels less, 50 taels if you have more, and 100 at most, if you don't have money to accompany you, you have to play the board, 10 big boards to 100 big boards, so you have to be careful."

When Sun Wuxi heard this, his neck shrank in fright, and he almost gave up, but in the end, he couldn't suppress his strong curiosity, so he replied to Liu Renyu and said, "The little one understands." Then he walked over to the shelf with the glass mirror.

Coming to the edge of the shelf, Sun Wuxi carefully held a mirror made of ordinary wood in both hands, held it up and looked at his own face, and a thin young man with sword eyebrows, melon seed face, single eyelids, and thin lips appeared in the mirror.

"It turns out that his forehead looks like this!" Sun Wuxian held the mirror and looked at it very narcissistically for a long time.

Liu Renjie, who was standing next to Liu Renyu, saw that Sun Wuxian was staring at the mirror in a daze like an old monk, and he was also curious for a while.

Under the itching of his heart, Liu Renjie said: "My lord, I ............ my humble position." ”

Before he finished speaking, Liu Renyu said: "I know, I know, you just go and see it, just watch it." ”

"Yes, sir." Liu Renjie leaned over and took a look at a mirror framed by nanmu with a question mark in his mind, in which Hao Ran reflected the face of a handsome young man.

"No wonder everyone calls me Liu Langjun, I'm really a Langjun!" Liu Renjie looked at it again and again, whether he still shook his hair and shook it, which made Liu Renyu want to laugh when he saw it.

Liu Renjie looked at it for a while, and felt that the mirror was really a good thing, so he invited Liu Renyu and said: "My lord, this thing is really very tight, and it shows our appearance very clearly, do you want to take a look." ”

"No need, I'm ugly, and I'll still be ugly if I take a hundred more photos, but you, if you look like Pan An, you might as well buy a mirror and go back to take a good look." Liu Renyu replied with a smile.

This!?

Liu Renyu replied like this, one made Liu Renjie not easy to reply, and second, Liu Renjie also said that Liu Renyu sarcastically mocked him and Xiao. My mother loves to look in the mirror, and she can't help but blush and be a little embarrassed.

As a result, there was some silence in the lobby of the glass factory.

In the end, Liu Renyu broke the silence, and he asked Zhao Datie: "This mirror has finally been made, who made it according to the recipe I gave, go and call him." ”

"Okay, you wait here, go now."

Zhao Da Tiejing walked from the lobby towards the workshop inside, and after a while, a middle-aged man slipped out of the workshop.

When the middle-aged man saw Liu Renyu, the supreme ruler of Zhenbei Fort, he was naturally a little afraid and nervous, his knees weakened, and he knelt on the ground and said, "The villain Song Genyin has seen an adult. ”

"You're the one who made the mirror, very well, get up and speak."

"Master Xie." Song Geun Eun got up as he said, but he still stood hunched.

"You can make the mirror, it's very good, the craftsmen in our Zhenbei Fort have 3 levels, you are already a craftsman level, now you are promoted to technician, Daddy Zhao, I will ask your scribe to record it later, Song Genyin will be promoted to technician, the monthly money will be doubled, and one will enter a tile house."

"Okay, Elao Zhao will go to the scribe and ask him to write it down." After Zhao Datie finished speaking, he ran out to find someone.

At this time, when Song Genying heard Liu Renyu say this, he hurriedly knelt on the ground and said: "Adult, how dare the villain take credit, if it weren't for the adult to tell the villain the secret recipe, how could the villain be able to make a mirror, so the little one didn't dare to take credit." ”

"It's okay, it's okay, I gave you the recipe, but the mirror was made by you, so the credit is naturally yours, no need to shirk."

But Song Genyin refused to obey, and kept saying things like not daring to take credit.

Liu Renyu listened for a while, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, as if he remembered something, so he said: "That's it, that's it, let's do it, if you think it's inappropriate to use my recipe to make a mirror, then I'll just take you as an apprentice, and teach you this kind of technology, how about it?" ”

"This!?" When Matsugen Ying heard this, he was stunned for a while, and then said: "The villain is humble, how dare he climb high and be an adult's apprentice." ”

"Ha, speaking of humility, I used to be just a house slave of a big family in Taixi, how can I be considered noble, so you don't have to excuse yourself, just be my apprentice with peace of mind. Besides, if you want to refuse, I won't say more, and I will expel you and your family from Zhenbei Fort. ”

"The villain, the villain .......," Song Genyin stood up for a while, and finally seemed to have made up his mind, suddenly stood up, knelt down, kowtowed, stood up again, knelt down again, kowtowed, and so on several times, and then said: "Master is above, please accept the apprentice Song Genyin's worship." ”

"Apprentice, please." Liu Renyu said with both hands.

"Thank you, Master." Song Genyin didn't wait for Liu Renyu's hand to touch him before standing upright.

The two of them were here for the apprenticeship ceremony, but the people next to them were dumbfounded, a middle-aged man with silver threads on his head calling himself an apprentice to a young man in his early 20s, this scene was really weird.

Sun Wuxian couldn't help but want to laugh, and Chen Danqing next to him repeatedly made his eyes look at him, stepped on his feet, and asked him not to mess around.

Waiting for Sun Wuxian to pinch his own buttocks, it was easy to endure the boundless smile, and the combination of the old apprentice and the little master finally finished speaking, and at this time, Zhao Datie had also come back to accompany Liu Renyu to inspect.

Liu Renyu told the newly accepted apprentice a few words that mercury is poisonous, and it is better to have less contact, so he let his own apprentice put into production again.

"Let's go and have a look at the cement factory." Liu Renyu waved his hand.

So Zhao Datie took Liu Renyu and others to visit the cement manufacturing institute.

When he came to the cement manufacturing plant, Liu Renyu said to Zhao Datie: "Find the person in charge here to meet." ”

"Okay, wait a minute." After Zhao Datie finished speaking, he walked inside, and after a while, he led a craftsman covered in dust to walk out of the production workshop.

When the craftsman saw Liu Renyu, he immediately knelt on the ground, and said in a low voice: "The villain Song Shijun is guilty, he used so much silver taels from you, and after more than a year of hard work, he has not made the cement you said, please treat the villain's sin." ”

"What are you doing, I haven't said a word, you just say that you are guilty, whether you are guilty or not, you don't count, and you have to listen to me a few words before you express your position, okay, you get up first."

"Yes, sir." Song Shijun stood up as he said.

"This cement, I only know the ingredients, I don't know the proportion, so it takes a long time, after many tests to make it, even Taixi's side also got the cement recipe by chance, so you just have to take someone to do the experiment, what is missing, I will give it to you, you just do it."

"But the villain only eats the adult's monthly money, but can't hand over the things that can be used, and the villain is uneasy."

"I didn't say anything about you, what are you worried about, as long as you can make the cement in the end, it's okay, and when you make the cement, I will add you the title of engineer, with a carriage, and send three into a big tile house, what's the matter, it's rich enough, right?"

"How dare the villain ask for the reward of the adult, anyway, the villain just does it with his heart."

"Well, that's right, okay, you go get busy, make it early, it's good for us."

"Yes, the villain is retiring." After Song Shijun finished speaking, he turned around and entered the manufacturing workshop and went to do his own business.

"My lord, there is also Chen Xuanli's Fire Weapon Factory, and that apprentice Zhao Tiezhu's Cold Weapon Factory, do you want to go and have a look?" Zhao Datie asked Liu Renyu as he walked.

"I won't go, anyway, you tell them to do things solidly, just make more sophisticated equipment, I won't look at it, by the way, I'm leaving, please Daddy Zhao, you put two 100 taels of mirrors in a good box for me, I'll be of great use."

"Alright, my lord, you can wait here for a while." After Zhao Datie finished speaking, he trotted away, ran to the glass factory to put the two mirrors in a good-looking box, and then ran back and handed them to Liu Renjie.

After Liu Renjie took the mirror, Liu Renyu said: "Daddy Zhao, it's not too early, I'll go back first, our factory will move to Jingbian Fort after a while, you can prepare for it." ”

"Move back to Jingbian Fort!? That relationship is good, but the people of Jingbian Fort are good, that's good, that's good, you must be ready for it. Zhao Datie said with a smile.

"Then you prepare yourself, I'll go first."

Liu Renyu said goodbye to Father Zhao, and then walked towards his own mansion.
