Li Qi is not stupid, he can't hear what the prince meant, he really pretends not to know, because he doesn't want to get involved yet, after all, his officials are too young, he doesn't have the capital to play with them, and he leaves his fate to others to control, which is the plot that Li Qi hates the most.
As for the Four Kingdoms Banquet, this is Li Qi's strong point, anyway, there is still a period of time before now, Li Qi doesn't even bother to think about it, and now he has a lot of things to worry about.
In the early morning of the next day, Li Qi still went to the military camp to train the troops first, because there was going to be a bonfire party tonight, the daytime training continued, but Li Qi selected five people from each group to arrange tonight's bonfire party, and he also transferred a few cooks from the drunken immortal residence to deal with those prey.
"Master Li, what should I do with this black bear?"
These cooks had never handled a bear in their lives, and besides, the black bear had a hideous face, and even if it was dead, it still made people look at it and be afraid.
Li Qi naturally knew that they were worried, and immediately called Niu Gao's fierce man, told him to cut off the bear's head first, and then said to one of the cooks: "You leave the bear skin and right palm for me, and I will send someone to the Drunken Immortal Residence later, forget it, I am not at ease with Xiao Liuzi's personality, send it to the Qin Mansion." β
Such a good thing, Li Qi naturally will not let go, besides, there are so many people here, it is impossible for everyone to eat, it is better to keep it private, as for why Li Qi wants his right palm, it is because black bears often use their right palm to pick honey and lick it, which will absorb some of the nutrients of wild honey, of course, there is also the moisturization of saliva, the taste is better, and the nutritional value is higher.
"Hey, I know what to do."
Li Qi snorted, and suddenly said, "You wait for a moment." As he spoke, he said to Niu Gao again: "Niu Jiaotou, when this black bear attacks you, is it customary to use your left hand or your right hand?" β
Niu Gao was stupid to be asked by this question, that was fighting for his life, how could he have the heart to care about this, shook his head and said, "I don't know." β
Li Qi frowned, in case this bear is a left-hander, then I am not a big loss, ruthless, and caught the cook again, and whispered: "Remember, I want all four bear paws, and I also keep those deer whips." β
After arranging a qiΔ, Li Qi went back to the Qin Mansion, because this morning Wu Furong sent someone to inform him that all the materials he wanted to make zuΓ² glass had been found. In fact, as early as after the acquisition of the Liulifang, Li Qi asked Wu Furong to start preparing the raw materials.
When he came to the Qin Mansion, Wu Furong was already there.
Li Qi greeted Wu Furong and asked, "Uncle Wu, have you checked the details of those craftsmen?" β
Wu Furong nodded and said, "It's all clear." As he spoke, he took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and handed it to Richie, saying, "Now, it's all on it." β
Li Qi took it and saw that among the more than 30 craftsmen, eight of them were alone. After looking at it carefully for a while, he asked for a brush, scratched it on the paper a few times, and handed it back to Wu Furong, saying: "Uncle, the eight people who drew circles on it, you told them to go home first, and they were not allowed to go to the workshop again in the future, I have other arrangements, in addition, you call a few of our people to help in the workshop and pick some young ones." β
Wu Furong was puzzled: "Why is this? β
Li Qi said solemnly: "Uncle Wu, what I want to do this time, if it can be successful, it will definitely be a great invention, as soon as this thing comes out, there will definitely be many people who will want to take it for themselves by any means, I am afraid it will inevitably be a bloody storm, so we must do a good job of secrecy, I don't want any uncertainties in it, these people have no children and no daughters, it is not easy to control, they must be abandoned, as for the rest of the people, you ask Anan to send someone to monitor their families for me, forget it, Just help them arrange to go to a bar or food court, so that it is easy to monitor, and once the work starts, no one is allowed to leave the workshop without my permission, and if he doesn't agree, you let him go. β
Wu Furong was worried in his heart, are you doing business or rebelling. With fear in his eyes, he said: "Li Gongzi, since it's so troublesome, let's just stop it, isn't it just a few hundred times, and if you lose it, you will lose it." β
Wu Furong, who has always been good at managing money, actually said such a thing, which shows how scared he is.
Li Qi smiled and said: "Uncle Wu, don't worry, as long as we are completely prepared, then there will be no problem, and the higher the danger, the greater the benefits, as long as we can get that thing, it will definitely be enough for us to eat, drink, prostitute and gamble for ten lifetimes." β
Wu Furong saw that Li Qi was determined to do it, so he had to nod and say, "Hey, the old man understands." β
Li Qi snorted, and suddenly said, "Oh, I forgot to tell you something, do you remember the little foot shop in front of the workshop?" β
Wu Furong let out an "ah" in surprise, and then nodded and said, "Remember." β
"The lady of the foot shop is a mouthy person, with her, she will give her a whole accident if she has nothing to do, you just ask someone to buy the foot shop and become our chain store." Li Qi said domineeringly, isn't it money, although he is very "poor", but this money is really not in his eyes.
Wu Furong sighed again and said, "What if people refuse to sell?" β
"Won't sell?"
Li Qi sneered and said, "Then let's open a few tea stalls on the side to squeeze her to death, when you ask someone to talk, remember to be arrogant, soft and hard." β
Wu Furong had already been taken away by Li Qi, and he also felt that this was the way of business, so he nodded and said, "Well, I remember." β
Li Qi nodded, and then said, "Where did you put all those things?" β
"Put it all in the back room, and I'll take you there now."
Wu Furong said and took Li Qi to a room in the backyard, only to see a few burlap bags in the house, all bulging.
"All of this material has been powdered according to your request." Wu Furong said.
"Hmm."
Li Qi opened the burlap bag and looked inside, it was full of some powders of different colors, and he took out a little more and looked at it carefully. Nodding, "Not bad." Are the scales ready? β
Wu Furong pointed to the innermost table with his hand and said, "It's been prepared for a long time." β
"Okay, Uncle Wu, thank you very much."
Wu Furong said: "If you think it's okay, then it's okay." β
Li Qi smiled and said, "Well, you go and get busy first, and you can help me sue Aunt Chen by the way, and let her tell those subordinates that no one is allowed to come to the backyard without my permission." β
Wu Furong nodded and said, "Hey, let's go." So saying, he went out.
After Wu Furong went out, Li Qi locked the door from the inside, turned his head to look at the bags of powder, his eyes flashed, and his face was full of confidence.
In fact, the principle of glass is very simple, the main raw materials are quartz sand, soda ash, limestone, feldspar, fortunately these things are now available, it is easy to get, which also greatly increases the feasibility of glass production, if it is as difficult to find as a cloth, then everything is in vain.
The first thing Li Qi had to do was to mix these raw materials in a certain proportion, and he still remembered these numbers very clearly, but he didn't know what the difference between the raw materials at this time and the processed raw materials in later generations would be, and the current temperature was not accurate, so he still had to explore. He took those numbers jΓΉ as the center, fluctuated up and down, and calculated five proportional values.
Since it is still in the actual stage, Li Qi did not let Wu Furong get a lot of raw materials, and each raw material is a burlap bag. After a short break, he stood at the table, took the scale rod and began to prepare the ingredients in a certain proportion.
Regarding the raw materials of glass, Li Qi can rest assured that Wu Furong can do it, but these numbers, he does not intend to tell anyone, the value of glass, he knows very well in his heart, this can be seen from the value of glass at the moment, and the value of glass is not only reflected in life, even in the military, glass can also play a huge role, so no matter what, he will never give this achievement to anyone, including the current emperor.
Before I knew it, two hours had passed.
Li Qi finally finished the preparation, looked at the five burlap bags on the ground, let out a long breath, and wrote the serial numbers on the bags with a brush to avoid confusion. However, there is still a bag of powder in the house, although Li Qi has not touched it all the time, but it does not mean that it is superfluous, on the contrary, this bag of materials can be said to be the most important, because it contains pyrolite powder.
If Li Qi really developed glass with any of the five formulas, it would only be tinted glass, because it also contains iron, based on the storage of colored glass, Li Qi knew that tinted glass could not cause much repercussions, and pyromanganese ore was the key to turning tinted glass into colorless glass, and it had undoubtedly become the most important item in his secret plan, about this, as long as he didn't say it, he believed that no one could think of it in these years.
There is only so much he can do, and the actual operation has to be taught to those craftsmen.
After getting a qiΔ done, Li Qi just wanted to ask someone to store these bags, when he suddenly heard the voice of Gao Yanei outside, "Li Qi, Li Qi, where are you, come out for me." β
What is this idiot doing again?
Li Qi hurriedly opened the door and walked out, and then quickly locked the door, he didn't dare to let Gao Yanei know that he was developing glass, otherwise Gao Yanei's big mouth, within a day, would definitely be known all over the city.
As soon as Li Qi locked the door, he saw Gao Yanei, Zhou Hua, and Hong Tianjiu, the three stinkers, entangled with the subordinates of the Qin Mansion, and forcibly walked towards this side.
Li Qi rolled his eyes, greeted him, and shouted, "Yanei, don't shout, I'm here." β
As soon as Gao Yanei saw Li Qi, he hurriedly got rid of those subordinates and ran over.
Those subordinates also followed, saluting Li Qi and saying, "I'm sorry, Master Li, they." β
"Okay, I see, you guys go down first."
Li Qi waved his hand, and asked the three people in Gao Yanei, "What are you looking for me?" β
Gao Ya laughed a few times, blinked at Li Qi with big eyes, and said meaningfully: "Li Qi, you are honest, what are you hiding here this afternoon?" β
