Lingnan Xu Huiyan's "individual energy" is still fermenting, this time he was not summoned by the emperor because of his illness, and he also privately sent troops to control Xunzhou, killing the heads of people in the county town of Dezhou, which was good news for Emperor Lu. The Propaganda Department, the Espionage Department, and the Security Department are all busy. It's just that such a topic is becoming more and more difficult to cause a sensation among the people.

The current small court of the Southern Song Dynasty is more and more like a piece of chicken ribs that are tasteless and discarded for Emperor Lu.

However, the 'bloodless soldiers' of the first battle in Ganzhou in the northwest and the establishment of the Yellow Flag Party Xiangnu made Emperor Lu even more happy. But what made him even happier was in September.

Wu Qiongying gave birth to a son smoothly, and the mother and son were safe.

Emperor Lu was overjoyed.

He doesn't have too many sons.

And the constant birth of a son can also give outsiders a signal that he is in good health, right? Although Emperor Lu's son is still young, and the influence of this signal is still very weak, but this is better than only one or two sons, isn't it?

Today, he can look at this very rationally. Because of his previous life, he liked his daughter very much in his heart. In the 21st century, having more sons is a big burden for ordinary people. The house and the mother-in-law are definitely the two magic weapons for balancing the ratio of men and women in China in the new century. And he had a lot of cousins and cousins in his previous life, and he really liked his daughter. But today's reality requires him to give birth to more sons.

He, Lu Qian, is not an ordinary person, not the former king of the mountain. Can't pursue the kind of life that "has a mother-in-law and children, a rich life and a high social status" is everything, which is the best praise for ordinary people's efforts in life, but it is not good for him.

Because he was the emperor of the Lu Qi Dynasty, he himself was in power, he responded to every call, his wives and concubines were noble and respected by everyone, and his children did not worry about food and clothing, and enjoyed the highest life in the world, so he must also compromise with this society.

It's like he doesn't care about those rumors spread by the Zhao Song Imperial City Division at all, with the eye of heaven in his body, who can rebel against him? But this did not delay him from spreading the matter to the ears of those generals who commanded the army.

If so, Lu Junyi, Yang Zhi, Suo Chao, Luan Tingyu and other generals in the army have written to them, saying that they have no intention of dividing overseas and occupying the land as the king.

The personalities of these people are really not suitable for 'independent' to go overseas, but they are on the fold at this time, but they are more afraid that Emperor Lu will be suspicious of them.

What's more, no matter how good overseas is, it's not as good as the Central Plains, isn't it? Here they have already achieved fame, and their children and grandchildren have wealth and glory, what are they going to do?

Even so, it can be interpreted that they are willing to stay in the Central Plains and wait for the opportunity to be "Boss Zhao" second. But weighing the weight, these people still folded. Although Emperor Lu simply laughed.

Therefore, being a courtier in a feudal society is also a very hard thing.

Emperor Lu had another son, and the news spread immediately, and there were voices of congratulations.

But this is not the eldest son, nor is it the son-in-law of Fang Jinzhi, as a subordinate, Wenwu is just happy, Emperor Lu is already forty years old, and he can still have children, which shows that Emperor Lu's body is still very healthy, right?

But the Office of Internal Affairs unexpectedly played a trick - they took the opportunity to advertise.

The Internal Affairs Office is an institution directly under the royal family, commonly known as the Inner Government outside. There are countless factories and workshops under his rule, not to mention that there is also a financial department dedicated to investment and equity participation, which can be said to make large profits for the royal family all the time.

It is difficult for outsiders to have a systematic understanding of the capital, so the Security Division must understand, but how can the news there be known by outsiders?

Now an industry that has been actively exposed by the Internal Affairs Office is like a visitor from outside the world, shining in the eyes of everyone.

- Crystal Glass Row.

Crystal is not uncommon in front of dignitaries, but a crystal is not rare, ten or eight pieces are not rare, and hundreds of hundreds of pieces are not rare?

There is an extra crystal conservatory in the Forbidden City, which is really the envy of many people.

And this is not a gift from the crystal glass line, it is just what the Internal Affairs Office should do. It is not the common crystal glass carvings and patterns in the homes of the rich and noble that make the crystal glass line famous among the civil and military ministers of Lu Qi, but the crystal clear glass windows, no, it should be said that they are "crystal windows" now.

The "crystal windows" of different sizes have changed the Xuande Pavilion of the previous dynasty and the palace window paper of the harem mothers' residences.

Those women who entered the harem to congratulate, as well as the former court officials who had seen the bright light of Xuande Pavilion, all paid attention to the crystal glass.

Compared with the heavy mulberry window paper, in Qilu in September, the climate has already dropped, and there has been a light snowfall. This year's winter came very early and cold. The thin spring and summer curtains have long been replaced, and the papier-mâché windows are the right way.

But it also keeps most of the sunlight out of the window.

Even though the upper-class people of Yidu have long used bright and odorless whale oil lighting, it is clear that compared to the natural sunlight, this still hurts the eyes. Not to mention the sun under the "crystal window".

And when countless Lu Qi court officials asked people about the crystal glass shop, but there was such a clear "crystal window", they suddenly found that the lair of the crystal glass shop was in Haizhou.

The famous East China Sea crystal in later generations, Emperor Lu knew some of it. In the early days of his occupation of Haizhou, he sent people to special exploration. After Lu Qi's general trend was achieved, he asked someone to go to Haizhou to handle this matter.

The famous East China Sea Crystal did not disappoint him, and a large number of high-grade flawless crystals were opened from the mine. The clairvoyant lenses that are becoming more and more common in the Qi army are all from here. At present, the prototype of these "crystal windows" in the court is a serious crystal, because a large number of high-grade colorless transparent crystals have been excavated, and while the source of clairvoyant lenses ensures absolute abundance, Emperor Lu is thinking about creating some convenience for his life. But this initiative was quickly stopped by him, because it was too costly. It is not only the cost of crystal, but also the cost of labor. Therefore, it is the glass that is really good here.

Therefore, those civil and military ministers who were looking forward to the existence of a large number of "crystal windows" in the crystal glass store all came to return satisfied.

And the court wives who also paid attention to the crystal glass line were definitely not disappointed. In the newly opened business store of the crystal glass store in Yidu, they really found a glass mirror that can show people's hair and be extremely clear.

Emperor Lu once asked someone to make a special thing for glass, but he couldn't succeed. When Lu Qi's domination of the world became clearer, he went to find someone who could burn glass, and that was really there. It's just that the glass burned out is bright in color, such as colored jade. There is a clear difference in appearance from the dark-colored glassware imported from Tianfang. At the same time, these glasses are light and brittle, and they are broken with hot wine. This is clearly unqualified. Just like the glassware produced in China earlier, it cannot replace traditional ceramics, porcelain and other eating utensils, but only to make secondary products such as ornaments, beads, lanterns, bottles and cans, chess pieces, inkstones, etc.

Emperor Lu, whose chemistry grades were taught by the Chinese teacher, obviously did not understand the internal reasons, and did not know that although the Chinese had mastered the glass firing technology very early and were one of the origins of glass manufacturing in the world, although the glass produced in ancient China was bright in color, due to the low firing temperature, it was more "brittle and unchaste". Later generations of scholars used modern chemical technology to identify and analyze that ancient Chinese glass products basically belonged to lead barium glass because of the high content of lead and barium. The ancient Middle East is the main birthplace of glass production, its raw materials and production process are different from China's lead barium glass, there is a large amount of trona, that is, the glass produced by this technology is called "sodium calcium glass" because of its high content of sodium and calcium.

Emperor Lu, who didn't know the reason inside, also had his own solution, and his solution was to send someone to heaven. It was not a heavy purchase of recipes and raw materials elsewhere, but a heavy amount of money hooked up with several batches of craftsmen who could burn glass.

In fact, during the Northern and Southern Dynasties of China, many people in China had already mastered this method. After Emperor Lu made artificial glass, the person who was ordered took out a lot of words from the ancient books. For example, Ge Hong's "Hug Puzi Inner Chapter" once said that "foreign crystal bowls are actually made by combining five kinds of ash, and there are many people who have their own ways to make them." Crystal bowls, that is, transparent glass bowls; Combining five kinds of ash means using five kinds of raw materials to form a distribution system. Ancient glassware excavated in later generations also shows that transparent monochrome glass was already available at that time. Although the transparency cannot be compared with the posterity.

But the strange thing is that the one who made the Fa unconsciously was lost.

Emperor Ran Lu used facts to show that there is nothing difficult in the world, only people who are afraid of them. If he puts a lot of effort into "studying" like this, it will only take two or three years to start from scratch, and the manufacturing method of glass, especially colorless transparent glass, has been very proficient. Just like the official history "The Original Meeting of Things" recorded: "The Three Treasure Eunuchs went out of the West and brought the burning Bo Gu people to China, so the Chinese Bo Gu was cheap." The burner has an angry eye and is light. ”

Of course, the latter Emperor Lu absolutely did not know.

It's just that the effect is the same.

After Emperor Lu confirmed the success of glass firing, although he still felt that it was far inferior to later generations when he saw the finished product, he still deliberately set up a crystal glass shop with the royal flag under the Office of Internal Affairs. After the production of the flat colorless transparent glass, the person in charge was asked to make glass windows, and the second was to study the mirror with one mind, and finally created a glass mirror in the literal sense of the word with tin foil, silver foil and mercury. It's just that because the manufacturing method of flat glass is not up to standard, it is difficult to make a large glass mirror with a large block and perfect quality. In such a long time, several large dressing mirrors were created. However, a lot of small glass mirrors have been made, and large and small "crystal windows" have filled many warehouses, which is enough for Emperor Lu to make a lot of money. Among them, mirrors can be used as China's new fist products to participate in maritime trade. Because although the celestial people in the west invented glass very early, they did not invent the glass mirror.

This whole process and the presence of the crystal glass line are well hidden. They didn't deliberately hide it, but they had the name of a clairvoyant mirror production base on their heads, so people invisibly chose to avoid it.

The clairvoyant mirror is still a military tool, and there is no circulation on the market at all, and it is a standard 'military weapon'.

Emperor Lu is 'competing for profit with the people', but as long as he is a human being, there is no one who does not love money. He is not short of money to spend now, but there is no need to push the benefits he has spent so much effort to push out, right?

And the important thing is that Emperor Lu also made a wish. As a traverser, he can't build a steam engine, but if he can't make guns, cement, glass, etc., wouldn't it be a shame.

What's more, there is such a thing as exploring a new map, and ordinary people have the capital to do it. Emperor Lu was going to organize a fleet and recruit people to travel around the world in the future, and there were more places to spend money.

The dignitaries and dignitaries of Yidu are the guiding beacons of Lu Qi's society, and the crystal glass line is as hot as a rocket. In just half a month, the crystal windows in stock have been sold, and the vanity mirrors have been sold for a lot of money.

Emperor Lu never doubted the consumption power of the noble lady.

As soon as Emperor Lu was happy, he sent a decree to the internal affairs office to set up a financial bank, after all, Emperor Lu did not make money to leave a warehouse full of gold and silver for future generations.

The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were stunned. Can there be a second institution as important as a bank?

As a result, Emperor Lu said that there can be not only a second bank, but also a third, a fourth, and countless ....... It's just that society hasn't developed to that extent.

In this way, the civil and military ministers of the Lu Qi Dynasty knew what a bank was, and what was a central bank, a policy bank, a commercial bank, and an investment bank.

It turns out that it is not any bank that can print paper money casually. (https:)
