Chapter 60 Opening Ceremony
He finished the bowl in one go, and then naturally handed the bowl to Zhongli, his movements were natural and sophisticated, as if he had practiced countless times.
Zhongli glared at Zhao Yiyan, but still silently helped him mix the tofu brain.
After eating five bowls, Zhao Yiyan put down the bowl, stared at Zhao Zijian and said: "Fourth prince, the second prince is just a villager, you have been living in her house, if it is passed to the palace, I am afraid that it will ......"
Zhao Yiyan didn't finish the rest of the words, but Zhao Zijian already understood what he meant.
Now the palace struggle is very fierce, if the news from here is spread to the palace, he has a close relationship with a farmer, and it will inevitably become evidence that other forces are suppressing him.
And he doesn't want Zhongli's talent to be discovered by others, after all, everyone wants to keep such a talent for themselves.
But the muddy water in the capital is not something that anyone can go into.
"King Qingyang, don't worry, I'll go back with you later."
Hearing this, Zhao Yiyan relieved himself.
Zhongli doesn't care, anyway, there are not many Zhao Zijian, and there are many less of him.
After they left, Zhongli focused on the Liuli Factory, which cost her a lot of effort and effort.
This morning, she brought her younger brothers and sisters at home and Zhong Liyu, who had been bored at home for a long time, to Liulichang.
The workers are in full swing, but no matter what they do, they can't make beautiful glass.
This made Wang Qinglin scratch his heart and liver, he finally gained Zhongli's trust, but now there is such a mistake, he doesn't know how to explain to Zhongli.
When Zhongli came, he saw Wang Qinglin sitting on the edge of the glaze factory decadently, looking very decadent.
Without waiting for Zhong Li to speak, Zhong Liyun ran over and said, "Steward Wang, what's wrong with you?" ”
Because of Zhongli's education, now they will all call others appropriately.
"Second son." Hearing the voice, Wang Qinglin hurriedly stood up, and after seeing the person in front of him clearly, his eyes fell on Zhongli, he knelt on the ground with a plop, and blamed himself: "Qinglin has failed to fulfill the trust of the second son, and failed to make what you requested." ”
Seeing Wang Qinglin like this, Zhong Liyu unconsciously pulled Zhongli's sleeve, this small act made Zhongli very funny, but she didn't show half a point on her face, and stepped forward and said, "You take me to see it first." ”
Wang Qinglin hurriedly cheered up and walked into the operation room with the Zhong family.
When Zhongli saw the finished product, she immediately saw the reason.
The quartz content in the stones piled up next to them is not pure enough, and their temperature is not high enough.
After looking around, Zhongli called all the workers and said in front of everyone, "What do you think about not making glass?" ”
"If you go back to the second son, it's that this stone is not good." A young man stood up and said.
"What nonsense are you talking about, we used this kind of stone at the beginning, didn't we also make glass?" Another older worker scolded.
But Zhongli didn't think so, she looked at the young man and said, "What's your name?" ”
"My name is Erwazi." The young man straightened his back, this was the first time he had shown his face in front of Zhongli.
"Second baby?" A black line crossed Zhongli's forehead, there really was someone with that name.
But after thinking about it, she used to be called Zhong Xiaocao, and she was relieved.
"Second baby, you tell me carefully, why is this stone wrong." Zhongli found a place to sit down, and the workers followed.
Among them, the worker who scolded Erwazi before stared at Erwazi with a worried face, because Erwazi was his son.
"The color of this stone is wrong, but my old man said that I was wrong." The second baby picked up the stone on the ground and put it in front of Zhongli, the stone looked very dazzling, even indoors, it could shine brightly.
To be honest, Zhongli also knows a rough idea of this. So she attached great importance to Erwazi's opinion, stared at Erwazi and said, "Then if I give you the heavy responsibility of mining raw materials, can you be competent?" ”
The glass factory has been open for so long, and she has invested a lot of money, but now, she hasn't even seen the shadow of the glass, let alone the glass house.
And now she wants to do this thing, but it is related to what is to be displayed at the opening ceremony, and now she can't do it in a day, and she can't prepare for the ceremony.
"I ......" Erwazi was a little hesitant, he was a child who grew up next to his father, and he had never done anything alone at all.
"You can take it from the second baby, you just need to pick the stones, and leave the rest to me." Wang Qinglin said busily. Now he is in a hurry to express himself, but he is really inferior to the second baby in this regard, so he can only let the second baby come out.
"Then old man, I agreed." The second child glanced at his father, turned to stare at Zhongli and said seriously: "Second son, since you trust me, I will definitely not let you down." ”
"Okay, then you clean up, the work in the factory is stopped now, everyone will rest for a few days, and then start work when the stones are recovered." Zhongli gave an order, and naturally there was no objection.
After the matter of the glaze factory was resolved, Zhongli took the children to play in the water for a while before returning to Zhuangzi.
As soon as he sent the children back to sleep, Zhong Liyu came to the door and said timidly: "Second brother, you shouldn't blame the king for doing things, right?" "In the end, it is the man in the picture, Zhong Liyu still cares a little in his heart.
"What, worried?" Zhongli deliberately teased her, but she didn't intend to blame anyone in the first place.
After all, everything is just starting now, and she is also groping her way forward.
"Second brother!" Zhong Liyu blushed and stomped his feet, and his youngest daughter's family was full of coquettishness.
Zhongli saw it in his eyes, and he didn't bother to correct it, anyway, she was only like this by her side.
"Okay, don't worry, you see when I blamed him, besides, it's not his fault." Zhongli pulled Zhong Liyu to sit down beside him, and said seriously: "What about you, just put your heart in your stomach, it turns out that he is the person I chose, and he always has his advantages." ”
Zhong Liyu is her sister, and marriage in this era, it is a lifelong thing, and you must choose a man. After all, in an era of such openness in modern society, there are still people who look down on divorced women. How could she not keep her eyes open?
"I see." Zhong Liyu realized that she was thinking too much, and when she thought that she had shown herself in front of her second brother again, she glared at Zhong Li with a red face and said, "Don't make fun of me, you will also get married one day in the future." ”
Speaking of getting married, Zhong Liyu and Zhong Li were stunned at the same time.
And Zhongli never thought of marrying in this era, what she advocated was monogamy, and in this era, anyone with a little status had to get a few concubines to go home and raise them.
She didn't think she could find the right person, but she could only think about this in her heart, and she couldn't say it to Zhong Liyu, otherwise she would definitely be verbose to death.
"It's too early for that, so I'll talk about it later." Zhongli snorted and mixed up.
"Big brother, you take a rest first, I'll go see the children." Zhong Li was afraid that Zhong Liyu was mentioning this matter, so he hurriedly found a reason to slip away.
Zhong Liyu shook her head and sighed, as the eldest in the family, she couldn't care about her younger brother.
……
A few days later, Erwazi and Wang Qinglin came back with a cart of stones, these stones looked no different from the usual stones in the sun, just looking at the smiles on the faces of Erwazi and Wang Qinglin, they must know that these things are much more important.
"Second son, they're back." The little guy came to report immediately.
"Let's go check it out." She also wanted to know what kind of stone the second child chose.
When she came to the glass factory, the workers couldn't wait to start casting the glass.
The factory was busy, and everyone's face was full of excitement, only the father of the second child was depressed. He was afraid that his son would get into trouble, and if he didn't make the glass, then they wouldn't be able to keep their job.
"Second baby, I hope you can be more competitive." The worker stood aside and said silently.
Over there, after many manufacturing processes, pieces of translucent glass appeared, and at this time, the sunlight just shone on the glass, which was extremely translucent.
"Ruri, we finally made Ruri." The father of the second baby was full of excited tears, and their work could be regarded as preserved.
"That's right, this is the glass, you first make some models out, and then pour the created glass liquid into the container, it will naturally solidify into the desired shape." Zhongli was still thinking about her glass.
"Okay, don't worry, second son, we will definitely do our best to make the best glass." The second baby's father hurriedly promised.
Zhongli didn't like to stay in this hot place, and after praising them a few more words, he left the Liuli Factory.
It's just that the next day, when Zhongli saw that thing, he couldn't help but look treacherous.
The glass is as clear as before, but there is one thing, these glasses contain air bubbles.
However, this is not impossible to solve, but now this first batch of things cannot be used.
"What's wrong? Isn't it good? I think it's pretty good! ”
Zhong Liyu stood next to these things and couldn't help but wrinkle her eyebrows, she also knew that this was not good, but Wang Qinglin was responsible for this matter.
Zhongli rolled his eyes at Zhong Liyu angrily.
It's just, people are right, girls are outgoing, this hasn't done anything yet, the elbows have turned out.
Zhong Liyu saw Zhong Li's gaze, how could she not know what she was thinking? Suddenly her face turned red, and she couldn't help but glance at the other party, bit her lip, and pushed her again.
"Okay, you can say something!"
Wang Qinglin was fighting beside him, his clothes were soaked with sweat, and he also looked at Zhongli cautiously, for fear that she would not be satisfied.
"Anyway, I didn't think about this matter, so I smashed all the glass that I got now, and then filled in the color and continued to fire, and then I gave you a mold, and you made it for me according to the mold."
Wang Qinglin nodded quickly like pounding garlic.
After returning to the village, Zhongli began to prepare for the opening ceremony, after all, this is the first factory she has opened here, and there will definitely be more factories in the future.
"Second brother, what is the opening ceremony?" Zhong Liyu pestered Zhong Li and asked.
"The opening ceremony?" Zhongli thought for a while, but he really couldn't think of how to explain it, so he had to say, "I'll take you to see it when the time comes, okay?" ”
Zhong Liyu nodded again and again, she found that since she studied with her second brother, it was much more interesting than in a private school.
The gentleman only taught them theoretical things, but Zhongli took them to practice, and the meaning of the two was completely different.
In the blink of an eye, the day of the opening ceremony arrived, and before that, Zhongli also sent an invitation to Zhao Zijian. As for Zhao Yiyan, Zhongli still remembered that he said to keep his distance, so he didn't have his share.
Everything is ready, just wait for Zhao Zijian to come.
At this moment, at the gate of the Liuli Factory, the workers are standing in the sun in uniform uniforms, and there are still a few strings of firecrackers in front of them, just waiting for Zhao Zijian to come and light them.
There is also a red ribbon tied in front of the factory, and according to Zhongli, he said that he would let the distinguished guests cut this ribbon later, which is called ribbon cutting.
Although they didn't know what ribbon-cutting was, they were all happily waiting for Zhao Zijian's arrival.
