Xia Tingwei already has some awareness of marriage, so the first thing she thought of was that Fang Xiaoyu also treated her as a fiancée. Thinking of this, Xia Tingwei's face was slightly red, but she didn't know what to do, but there was a hint of sweetness in her heart. Seeing Xia Tingyun looking in the mirror excitedly, Xia Tingwei also took the mirror in Fang Xiaoyu's hand with a red face, and whispered, "Xie Luxie." ”

Fang Xiaoyu didn't know why Xia Tingwei blushed when he took the mirror, originally he didn't treat Xia Tingyun as his fiancée at all, so naturally he couldn't think of Xia Tingwei's complicated thoughts. He just thought that such a beautiful girl should have a mirror that could see her beautiful appearance clearly, if he knew Xia Tingwei's thoughts, he would definitely laugh and tell her that you were thinking too much, and then run to the side to self-indulge.

Fang Xiaoyu sent away the two happy girls and began to think about how to make money with glass. If you want to make money with glass, you must first solve the problem of raw materials. Quartz sand, feldspar, and limestone are not a problem, they are things that no one wants, they don't cost at all, and they can be found everywhere.

Soda ash is a bit troublesome, although there is no chemical industry, soda ash cannot be made, but there are still some natural soda ash, at least in the short term. Boric acid is more troublesome, although boric acid is not used in the oldest glass manufacturing method, but he does not plan to use it, because the glass made by that method is not pure enough in texture and is often accompanied by a large number of pores, so it can be said that the ornamental is greater than the practicality.

The last Fang Xiaoyu finally thought of a way to replace boric acid with borax, which is made from borax and sulfuric acid, so these two things are the same in composition. At present, there is no way to make sulfuric acid, only borax is used, but fortunately, the use of borax only takes a longer time to fire glass. In the Lanfang Empire, there is a medical system similar to traditional Chinese medicine, and borax as a medicinal material is sold in pharmacies, so the source of this raw material is not a problem. This project is also arranged, and I believe that in the near future, another new money-making tool will be born.

It took three days to make a batch of glass, which was mainly glass plates, Fang Xiaoyu was going to transport these glass products home first, so that the three grandfathers could see the effect, and by the way, they would also communicate with the uncle. The glass was carefully wrapped in straw, cotton and cloth and placed on the cart, and Fang Xiaoyu didn't dare to leave quickly, so it took a whole morning to transport it to his home.

As soon as he entered the door, Uncle Fang Weiming, who had already received the news, greeted him, he took Fang Xiaoyu's arm and asked with a smile: "Xiaoyu, you are so uninteresting, you don't tell Uncle if you have a new gadget." "What?" Fang Xiaoyu was stunned by the uncle's words. Fang Weiming said: "Yesterday, Marshal Xia came to our house with a crystal clear cup, and I stupidly asked people what this was, but Marshal Xia asked them all. After Marshal Xia's explanation, I realized that Lu Dao was given by you to the two little girls of the Xia family, you really forgot your uncle when you have a daughter-in-law, such a good thing actually gave your daughter-in-law first and didn't say a word to your uncle. ”

What is this, since Fang Xiaoyu has come up with more and more new things, Fang Weiming already likes him. So Fang Weiming's attitude towards this little nephew is getting better and better, and he even began to make fun of him often. Fang Xiaoyu said with a smile: "How is it possible, I gave it to them just in time for them, and what does the uncle think I came back for today?" After speaking, he pointed to the big lane behind him: "This car is all delivered to the house, let everyone see the fresh ones first." Fang Weiming smiled: "It's pretty much the same, why don't you let the uncle open his eyes first." ”

At this time, an old voice sounded from in front of them: "Wei Ming, you are in such a hurry, and you don't wait for us?" Turning the corner of the house, Fang Rui and the other three old men walked out, and it was Fang Rui who spoke just now. Fang Weiming immediately stepped forward and smiled embarrassedly: "Father, I'll just take a look first." ”

Fang Rui walked up to Fang Xiaoyu and nodded, "Xiaoyu, you're back." Fang Xiaoyu said with a smile: "I have only made a batch of work in the past few days, and I will send it home first." Wu Wei also stepped forward and said with a smile: "Xiaoyu, you can coax girls, and it will make the three of us make a fool of ourselves in front of Marshal Xia." Fang Xiaoyu's face was slightly red, and he said embarrassedly: "No way, the output of this new thing is too low, so it has been delayed for so many days." ”

Second grandfather Fang Qiong also stepped forward and said, "Xiaoyu, don't stand here, come to the house and show a few grandfathers your new gadgets." Fang Xiaoyu beckoned, and asked the house slaves to carefully move the things wrapped in multiple layers to the main hall. After a while, all the people in the family came to see the freshness. Fang Xiaoyu first smiled and peeled off the straw, took out a spherical bottle and four beautiful glasses, and said with a smile: "Three grandfathers, what do you think of this?" ”

Fang Rui and the other three hurriedly took it over and looked through it carefully, and the others also came over. After playing for a long time, Fang Qiong said: "Xiaoyu, how can this be divided." Fang Xiaoyu smiled: "What's the point?" This is very low-cost, and I have made a lot of it, and I plan to give one set to each of my three grandfathers, uncles, aunts, and brothers and sisters. Hearing Fang Xiaoyu's words, everyone cheered. Fang Rui glanced around and said, "What are you shouting, making a loud noise in the main hall, what is it like." Fang Rui's patriarch's majesty was still very effective, and the surprised crowd immediately didn't dare to speak.

Fang Xiaoyu then took out another mirror, because the production method is still relatively rusty, there is no way to make all kinds of patterns, these mirrors are still rectangular, and the size is half smaller than the two mirrors of the Xia sisters, but due to the sufficient time, the wooden frame is more exquisite, not only engraved with patterns, but also brushed with a layer of paint. Fang Ruixi and Fang Xiaoyu are the most familiar with each other, she ran over directly, grabbed the mirror and said, "Xiaoyu, give me this thing." Fang Xiaoyu smiled: "This is a mirror, which is used for makeup for girls." This mirror is for you, not only for you, but for every aunt and sister. Several other girls from the Fang family cheered and ran over to get their mirrors.

Fang Xiaoyu will not favor one over the other, this time he is well prepared, not only everyone in the family has a set of cups, women have a mirror, even several aunts who have been married also have a copy, Fang Xiaoyu sent someone to send it over. After dividing the things, there was still a lot left on the ground, Fang Rui looked at it suspiciously and asked, "Xiao Yu, what are the remaining things?" Fang Xiaoyu smiled mysteriously: "This needs to be seen in another place." Fang Xiaoyu ordered someone to carry things to his grandfather's bedroom, and the family was very strange, so they all followed.

Coming to the door of Grandpa Fang Rui's bedroom, Fang Xiaoyu glanced at it and said with a smile: "You guys tear down all the windows." Hearing Fang Xiaoyu's words, Fang Rui was taken aback: "Xiaoyu, you want to demolish grandpa's house." Fang Xiaoyu smiled: "You will know the Tao in a while." Fang Rui was also curious, what Fang Xiaoyu was going to do, he had to watch first. There were many people in the Fang family, and there were many people, and soon all the windows were demolished.

These windows are made of 10-centimeter-square lattices and pasted with window paper. Fang Xiaoyu ordered someone to tear all the window paper. Then he took out the ten-centimeter-square glass plates from the straw. Due to the backward technology, the glass plates are of different thicknesses, and it is impossible to make large pieces of glass, so he simply cut the glass small and installed it one by one on the panes. Although it was more troublesome to install glass in this way, there were many people doing the work, and under the command of Fang Xiaoyu, it took an hour for the subordinates to install all the windows with glass. When the windows were installed again, everyone couldn't help but walk into Fang Rui's room to feel it.

With the glass windows, Fang Rui's room was no longer dim. Even in the evening, the room was still very bright. Fang Rui smiled: "Ha Luha, it's okay now, when Marshal Xia comes again, I want to get back yesterday's face." Fang Wei said: "Xiaoyu, you won't just install glass windows for grandpa." Fang Xiaoyu smiled: "Of course not, I have prepared enough glass, and I plan to replace the glass windows for the three grandfathers, and when I am in production, I also plan to replace the windows of the whole family." ”

Fang Qiong interrupted him and said, "Xiao Yu, I and your grandfather's glass windows are not in a hurry to change. Fang Xiaoyu and Fang Wei looked at Fang Qiong in surprise, Fang Qiong smiled and said, "If we press the glass window on the emperor's Qinzheng Palace first, what effect do you think it will be?" Fang Xiaoyu suddenly realized when he heard this, this second grandfather is too good at advertising, and he has done it to the emperor. Not only did he advertise, but he also filmed the emperor's sycophant, which is really a double win, and when the hundred officials go to the court, they see the bright Qinzheng Palace, and the advertising effect is more effective than the last time they sent the emperor orchid candy.
