Chapter 313: Crucial

Qu Jiang suddenly felt that there was a problem with his eyesight, this Xia clan didn't seem to be so good, at least, in terms of humility, it was much worse.

Xia Yanqing saw Qu Jiang's reaction, his tone was a little more cautious, and said, "Your Excellency arranged for your craftsmen to make telescopes, and they must have measured the glass pieces, made them according to the measurement data, and only after assembling them can we know whether they are successful or not." Knowing what it is and not knowing why it is will inevitably lead to such a situation. ”

Qu Jiang's expression was complicated, wasn't this what he said to the emperor yesterday? And this woman...... How did you know how he arranged the steps to do things?

Oh, she's proficient in the craftsman's trade, and she's even better at business. If you want to make a profit when you get something new, copying is of course the quickest way.

Seeing that her words had achieved their goal, Xia Yanqing motioned for Xinxiu and Xinrong to stay by the door before continuing, "I wonder if adults know the imaging principle of the glass lenses at both ends of the telescope?" The women of the people have developed telescopes during this period of time, and they have some experience in glass materials, and if they are used properly, they will be of great help to the refinement of telescopes and their derivatives. Of course, if Master Qu studied it himself, he would naturally have gains, but it would just take some time. ”

Qu Jiang didn't respond, but he was already weighing what Xia Yanqing said in his heart, and he was already deeply touched.

In all dynasties, many of the people who could serve as eunuchs were interested in craftsmen and studied deeply. However, due to the restrictions of serving the Imperial Palace, none of the generals made achievements in terms of skills and skills.

Now, Qu Jiang has found that he has the opportunity to make outstanding contributions in this area, or deepen his research, and there will be classics that will be passed on to the world.

Admittedly, now the superintendent already has a telescope that can be reproduced as it is, and he can also conduct an in-depth study of the glass. Over time, there will always be progress.

But the degree of progress is not something he can grasp. I can't say, in the end, he can only lay a foundation for the development of future generations.

More likely, it will be put on hold until it is lost to time.

Like the words he had seen in the sages about focus and image, they now seemed to be just a few words that existed on a few pages, and had no other meaning.

At the same time, the expressions of the two people who came with Qu Jiang also changed, and most of the people who were very good at something could work hard to study it.

Yesterday's telescope, which can be called a clairvoyant, is so simple to make that it has refreshed their eyes. Now they are even more aware of the people who make telescopes, saying that there may be other opportunities, and they can't be tempted.

Xia Yanqing saw that several people were interested, so he stopped going around in circles and said, "If there are outstanding achievements in the research of this matter, it will not only be of great benefit to the imperial court, but also an outstanding contribution that can be recorded in history." The telescope is not a thing for folk use, and the saint has said that if the folk women can develop the telescope one step earlier, the imperial court will buy its production technology. Nowadays, there are more women who have discovered the properties of some glass materials, I don't know what kind of price Master Qu can give to women? ”

Xia Yanqing, who was calm and eloquent, once again refreshed Qu Jiang's perception of her. Wouldn't it have occurred to such a shrewd woman that it would be better for her to have her own research and achievements and to go down in history?

"Such a good thing, why doesn't Miss Xia devote herself to research, but is very enthusiastic about giving it to others?" Qu Jiang asked.

Xia Yanqing smiled, her expression was calm, "The folk woman is just a village girl, and if she has occasional encounters, how can she think that good luck will always favor the folk woman?" Moreover, whether it is manpower, material resources, or confidentiality considerations, where can ordinary people master such skills? There are still some self-conscious women at this point. ”

Qu Jiang nodded secretly, this woman is very knowledgeable and shrewd.

"Let's take a look at your research first, and the official will try to give corresponding remuneration according to the situation."

"Heartcountenance." Xia Yanqing called the two girls, turned to Qu Jiang again, and motioned for him to go over to the long table in the living room, "A few adults, please." ”

Things have been prepared for a long time, Xinrong and Xinxiu got Xia Yanqing's signal, stepped forward to open a low cabinet in the corner, and took out all kinds of things inside, all of which were used by Xia Yanqing in the process of trial production of telescopes in some optical parameter tests of glass.

The three generals, including Qu Jiang, looked puzzled when they saw the items listed one by one.

Except for some glass lenses of different specifications, which they have recently come into contact with, are more familiar with, and have cognition, other ...... What is that?

These are the things that need to be used in the experiment, Xia Yan Qingshu.

In the absence of theories and systems with the aid of huge computational data, experimental science is the most basic way of scientific development.

Seeing the expressions of several people who are at the top of the craftsman skills in this era, Xia Yanqing has some expectations in his heart. Perhaps, they also have the opportunity to be at the forefront of science and productivity through the development of experimental science.

She took a booklet from Xinxiu's hand and opened it.

The booklet was twice as large as a normal bookkeeping, and the binding was a little rough and looked uneven in some places.

But looking at the content of the first page, Qu Jiang and the others looked solemn.

This booklet was compiled by Xia Yanqing after deleting and deleting the calculations and sketches that she had made in the process of trial production of the telescope, supplemented by text explanations, and bound it. Basically, it can be seen as a reproduction of the telescope making process.

Of course, there are various parameters of lenses of different specifications, as well as the imaging principle, the relationship between the eyepiece and the objective.

The big guy who will be the prisoner is naturally a person who is extremely familiar with these things in this era. Although these sketches and the real objects referred to are novel, it is precisely because of this that the three of them are even more excited.

Then there was nothing to do with the summer banquet, and in the end, she simply retreated to the original chair and sat down to drink tea and eat a few dried fruits.

She saw that the three of them were huddled together, pointing and discussing the booklet, and also took the corresponding physical equipment as an auxiliary, I was afraid that this heated discussion would continue for a while, so she also took out Qingyunzhai's account book to watch.

Time passed, and the three people who were going to be prisoners did not realize that this was someone else's territory.

After beckoning the workshop boy to bring a chair and serving tea, the three of them regarded this place as the meeting room of the supervisor, and completely forgot to do things.

Xia Yanqing looked at the sun several times, and deeply regretted that he was too impulsive, he should have chosen a few pages to dangle in front of their eyes, and then immediately sent the guests back and asked them to go back and discuss on their own.

It's good now, seeing that the New Year is coming, she's busy. But I had to waste my precious time here to accompany the guests.

"Ahem." Finally couldn't bear it anymore, Xia Yanqing coughed twice heavily, as a reminder.

The reason why it was heavy was because she had coughed lightly several times before, and she didn't see the three of them move.

The three of them probably felt that there should not be a woman's voice in the council room where they would be overseers, especially Qu Jiang, who was already frowning and angry when he looked up.
