Zhu Houzhao also learned from Wei Bin that the person in the car was the wife of Shoufu Liu Jian.

Frankly speaking, Zhu Houzhao, as the emperor, naturally has no good impression of this Shoufu Liu Jian, but this does not affect his business with Shoufu's wife.

What's more, let Liu Jian's wife exchange her family's 60,000 taels of silver for a crystal lotus Guanyin at a cost price of two taels, Zhu Houzhao thought it was quite interesting.

Mrs. Shoufu saw that the emperor also had to come out to salute, Zhu Houzhao also smiled and said a few words, and asked Wei Bin to give the crystal lotus Guanyin to Mrs. Shoufu.

And Zhu Houzhao also got 60,000 taels of money orders from this Shoufu wife, all of which are large bills of exchange of tens of thousands of taels, and it can be seen that Shoufu Liu Jian's mansion is still very rich, and a Shoufu wife is willing to take out 60,000 taels to buy a luxury glass handicraft, which is enough to prove this.

It seems that Gu Da used the investigation to say that Liu Jian received no less than 100,000 Bing Jing Tan every year, which can be described as a real hammer.

Of course, this also strengthened Zhu Houzhao's heart to copy Liu Jian's mansion in the future.

At least now, Zhu Houzhao feels that there is not much guilt for a two-tael handicraft at a high price of 60,000 taels, anyway, it is all people's fat and people's ointment, and it can still feed back to the people in his own hands, but in Liu Jian's hands, he can only buy concubines, buy houses, and even buy some useless antiques.

However, Zhu Houzhao was also a little surprised that this Shoufu wife was really not low-key, and dared to take out 60,000 taels in front of herself, the emperor, wasn't she afraid that the emperor would be red-eyed, but when she thought that she was a completely ignorant and faint monarch in the eyes of hundreds of officials, and the first assistant lady might feel that she didn't have this scheming, and the city government naturally didn't care about it.

In any case, since people are here to buy the handicrafts of their Royal Industrial Company, they are customers, and customers are God, Zhu Houzhao didn't do anything, and asked Wei Bin to personally send Mrs. Shoufu back to the car.

Mrs. Shoufu is indeed as Zhu Houzhao thought, she really likes the crystal sitting lotus Guanyin too much, and what she is rushing is that the crystal sitting lotus Guanyin can have more children and more blessings, because her Liu family has always been not prosperous, so she can't wait to take 60,000 taels of silver out to buy this royal treasure, and she also knows that the current emperor is just an ignorant faint king, so she doesn't care about anything, as for other people who know that Shoufu is rich, is it possible to bring down her husband?

Despite this, the eunuchs around Zhu Houzhao were still a little jealous, after all, he had only saved enough tens of thousands of taels after working hard to stay with the prince for so long, and the wife of the first assistant could take out 60,000 taels in one go, so Liu Jindu also said sourly: "In the end, it is the first wife, this shot is generous!" ”

"The visitor is a guest, let's continue the auction!" Zhu Houzhao heard Liu Jin's complaints, and couldn't help but say something about Liu Jin.

Zhu Houzhao is indeed not angry now, and he is in a very good mood, because just two glass crafts sold for 90,000 taels of silver, which is simply a huge profit among huge profits! What's more, he also discovered that Shoufu Liu Ge Lao might become a cash cow for his huge financial resources, and his heart was naturally even happier.

At this time, the third auction item was brought out, but the third auction item is two glass beds, according to Zhu Houzhao, this kind of glass bed is not only beautiful and clean, but also has the firmness of the wooden bed, and can make the skin fragrant and prolong life.

Not only that, Zhu Houzhao also asked Liu Jin to emphasize that this kind of bed will not hurt people if it is broken, because this kind of glass bed is tempered glass.

Don't think that tempered glass is glass made of steel, in fact, tempered glass is just to effectively control the temperature of fired glass in the process of firing glass.

To be precise, the glass is cut to the required size before it is semi-cooled and not solidified, and then heated to about 700 degrees, heated for four or five minutes, and then quickly cooled to form tempered glass.

The so-called tempered glass is to form a uniform tensile stress inside the glass, so that the bending and impact strength of the glass is several times higher, so that the glass can be relatively strong and brittle to reduce the purpose, and at the same time, even if it is broken, it can be directly broken into slag because of the uniform distribution of tensile stress, which does not cause harm to people.

In general, the most critical thing in the manufacture of tempered glass is the accurate control of temperature, Zhu Houzhao used kerosene and glass to manufacture a kerosene thermometer, and then used the water boiling temperature is a constant 100 degrees Celsius under the atmospheric pressure of Beijing City to calibrate the thermometer, so that the temperature of the fired glass can be accurately controlled, and the tempered glass can be successfully manufactured.

It is worth mentioning that although kerosene does not exist in large quantities in this world, it is still used by human beings in the form of natural kerosene, after all, there was a kerosene lamp in Baghdad in the ninth century, and it is not difficult for Zhu Houzhao to find some kerosene as an emperor, although he cannot directly take a large amount of kerosene to make chemical products, but it is not a problem to make a few thermometers.

Without further ado, although the manufacture of tempered glass is relatively more complicated than ordinary glass, the cost of manufacturing a tempered glass bed is less than three taels of silver, but Zhu Houzhao directly set a starting price of 20,000 taels!

What's more, Zhu Houzhao also ordered Liu Jin to take one of the two tempered glass beds and an ordinary glass bed to do a comparative test in front of all the people of the Royal Exposition, that is to say, to use a sledgehammer to hit the tempered glass bed and the ordinary glass bed at the same time, so that there is only one tempered glass bed left in the entire Ming Dynasty.

The people of the Royal Exposition watched with some distress as the eunuch knocked the sledgehammer on the tempered glass bed and the ordinary glass bed at the same time, but after the hammer was hammered, the ordinary glass bed was directly cracked and broken into several pieces, and the tempered glass bed was only buzzed for a while, and then, it began to crack again, and the tempered glass began to crack, and after a long time, the tempered glass was broken into slag.

"Wow! This glass deserves to be called tempered glass, and it is really the same as steel! I want to buy, I want to buy, the key is that now there is only this one in the whole world, 20,000 no loss, no loss! ”

Gu Dayong shouted, and hurriedly shouted: "Twenty-one thousand taels!" ”

After the other people came to their senses, they also grabbed it, because there were more and more wealthy businessmen and giants who attracted it, and it was true that the tempered glass bed showed his extraordinary, and there was only one, so it was very hot, and the auction price was directly raised to 50,000 taels for a while.

In the end, this tempered glass bed was won by a Hu merchant at a high price of 74,000 taels.

But the luxury auction is not over yet, and then glass chairs, glass tables, glass screens, glass bowls, glass chopsticks, etc. are all taken out for auction.

In addition, there is also a 100-pound collector's edition of "Comfort Balm" super big soap! It was also auctioned off.

The entire luxury auction allowed Zhu Houzhao to collect nearly 400,000 taels of silver that day!
