The cement plant has also stopped working in the past few days, and the cement burned in the past six months is enough for the second half of the year. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 The info workers are busy firing new glass. At the door, there are also a large number of broken glass ballasts that have failed to be fired.

The drawing that Yan Ming gave them at that time was nothing else, it was a simple magnifying glass drawing.

The magnifying glass is a gift that Yan Ming wants to give. But now he had a few more things on his gift list, the simplest being a magnifying glass.

"Master Hou, it's almost the New Year, why don't you still come for a run. What's the matter, just let Brother Chengxin come over. Lao Cai said with a smile.

Yan Ming nodded and said, "I remembered a few gadgets, you can't do it well, and Chengxin doesn't understand it, so I have to run it myself." By the way, I see that you burned a lot of failed glass, and all of them shattered into glass ballast. In this way, you have people bring glass ballast and a bag of cement to my little house in Maoling. ”

"No!" Lao Cai learned to be honest, and actually said a promise.

Yan Ming patted him on the shoulder and said, "How is the glass burning?" ”

"Back to the Hou Ye, I can already fire a rough shape. In the past few days, I have also found a few masters who know how to make crafts, and when the glass melts, it can be made into various shapes. After cooling, it is no worse than the glazed products brought by the Hu people in the Western Regions, and it is even more transparent and clear. Lao Cai said.

"The broken thing in the Western Regions, when Ben Hou didn't make a move, he could still come to my big man to cheat a little money. Now that Ben Hou has made a move, their things are all rags. Yan Ming said proudly.

"What Hou Ye said is that at the end of the year, Chang'an City will be very lively, and there will be not only all kinds of juggling performances, but also Hu merchants holding various sales parties. This year, should we make some glass products as soon as possible, so that we can sell them to Hu Shang at a large price? "Lao Cai is also a smart person, and he knows how cheap the raw materials for firing glass are. Saying this, it is nothing more than thinking about the black beard for a sum of money.

Yan Ming's eyes also lit up, and now, the glass products brought by Hu Shang are also gadgets. According to the reasoning, it should be that the process of firing glass by the Hu people has not reached the level of making large objects. If you can create some big things that are in the picture of the Hu people, you may be able to make a lot of money.

"Lao Cai, your idea is really good. In this way, you immediately gather the best craftsmen, and let's play big. Yan Ming smiled.

"No!"

"It's just a pity that your year is going to be over in the cement factory!"

"What is this that Hou Ye said! The money that the little one has earned in the cement factory in the past six months is enough to marry another wife! ”

"Haha, you know to marry a wife, be careful of your old waist."

Yan Ming likes to joke with the people around him, and this kind of communication makes him and the other party very relaxed.

"By the way, Lao Cai, get some mercury. Recreate some glass pieces, Ben Hou is very useful. Yan Ming has already made up his mind to pay attention to the women who give the harem, and the New Year's gift should give something that the women care about the most.

If this group of women who have never seen the world see the glass mirror and can clearly reflect their faces, they will definitely be surprised.

Glass mirrors are much better than copper mirrors.

And every woman loves beauty.

Whether it is a magnifying glass or a glass mirror, for Yan Ming, it is not the main purpose of coming over this time. He came this time because he had a bigger idea.

The two convex lenses overlap, and after adjusting the focal length, it can play a telescopic role. The telescope is the main thing Yan Ming wants to do this time.

Of course, binoculars are still not easy to make, but monoculars can barely be made.

Since it was decided, Yan Ming immediately started work.

Seeing that he changed into coarse cloth clothes and was busy with the workers, he didn't have the prestige of the Hou Ye at all. Lao Cai and the others saw that Hou Ye was like this, who was willing to be lazy, and they started one after another, and everyone was busy.

After two days and two nights, Yan Ming finally created two monoculars.

After the assembly, Yan Ming experimented and found that the effect of Wangyuan was super good. Satisfied, he put away the two monoculars.

A glass mirror with a mercury base is also made, which is only the size of a palm, but it can be seen very clearly on a human face.

With these gifts, Yan Ming returned to Maolingyi.

When he returned, the end of the year had come.

The old lady of the Yan Chen family hadn't seen Yan Ming for a long time, and couldn't help but nag: "This kid, I thought it was much better, but I still couldn't catch a figure during the New Year, and it was the same as last year." ”

The original Yan Ming was unreasonable, and he went out to gamble and play every New Year, and all dogs, horses, and cockfights were bad. This year, Yan Ming is still not at home to prepare for the New Year, and the first thing the old lady thinks of is his solid germination.

"Grandma, you have wronged your grandson!" Yan Ming just walked to the door, heard the sigh of the old lady of the Yan Chen family, and said.

Seeing Yan Ming, who was covered in dust, the old lady was stunned.

Yan Ming didn't care about the old lady's eyes, but carefully took out a magnifying glass from the package he was carrying behind him, handed it to the old lady, and said with a smile: "Grandma, you often say that your eyes are not good, you can't see small things, use this to see and try." ”

The old lady of the Yan Chen family took the convex lens, and according to the method given to her by Yan Ming, she glanced at a small texture, and was immediately surprised.

"What is this thing that can put something so small and so big?" Yan Chen said in surprise.

"Grandma, just call it a magnifying glass. I've got some good stuff here! Yan Ming said, took out the glass mirror again, and sent it to Yan Chen.

The clear mirror surface reflected Yan Chen's face in detail.

"What is this?" Yan Chen saw such a mirror and groaned slightly. The glass mirror is also in Hu Shang's hand, but it is not as clear as this.

Tian Xi and Yanran on the side also saw this mirror.

Especially Yanran, in the palace, I have also seen glass mirrors, but they are not as clear as this.

"Master Hou bought this from Hu Shang, it must be very expensive!" Yan Ran asserted.

Yan Ming looked at them with a smile and guessed, but he didn't say anything.

In his own home, the grandmother and the two ladies don't care. But since he became the Hou Ye and opened Hongyan Hall, his own subordinates have also increased. If you tell me about the fact that you have made a lot of mirrors, you can't guarantee that you won't reveal it.

The news of Maolingyi's firing of glass, when Yan Ming and Lao Cai were studying the Black Hu Shang, Yan Ming decided to block the news.

"Grandson, this thing is so good, don't forget to give one to the Empress Dowager of the Hot Spring Palace." The old lady of the Yan Chen family reminded.

Yan Ming nodded and said with a smile: "Don't worry, grandma, everyone's gifts are ready, just waiting to visit after the year!" ”

The old lady of the Yan Chen family nodded and said with a smile: "My grandson has grown up!" ”

In the voice, infinite emotion.
