Chapter 180: Techniques for Firing Glass
The construction of the paper mill began ten days earlier.
Thanks to the craftsmen sent by these families, they were eager to express themselves to get Qin Yu's appreciation.
They really contributed a lot of useful and good things to Qin Yu.
Some of them had experience in the papermaking workshops under the control of those big families.
They naturally know very well how to build a paper workshop layout more reasonably.
There are actually a lot of ways to do this kind of industrial thing.
A lot of things are accumulated by the experience that people have explored little by little.
At this point, they saved Qin Yu a lot of time and effort.
Qin Yu recruited some young and strong laborers from Jianyang County to work for him.
The construction period will be greatly advanced.
That's precisely because it's not the busy season for farming.
Moreover, the wages given by these young and strong laborers recruited by Qin Yu are quite a lot.
On average, each person's daily salary can be about 20 yuan.
This is really a lot of money for these peasants, who can only earn two or three hundred yuan a month.
In addition, it is the requisition of the county order, and they dare not be lazy.
It didn't take long.
The prototype of a paper-making workshop has been established five miles south of Jianyang City, and less than ten miles away from Xiaofang Village.
In this position, this is also the advice given by those craftsmen.
It's not too far from Thorn Yang City and Xiaofang Village.
There is a small river that flows into the river nearby.
It is suitable to discharge all the sewage generated in the papermaking process.
At the same time as this paper workshop was established.
Qin Yu had already begun to take those core craftsmen under his command to pre-study papermaking.
The pre-research of papermaking technology can be regarded as smooth sailing.
The various materials needed didn't need Qin Yu to worry about.
Lou Gui had already arranged this matter properly.
The Ma family in the land of Jingxiang is a real rich businessman.
Together with the Zhen family in Hebei, the Mi family in Xuzhou, the Lu family in Jiangdong, and the Qin family in Xichuan, it was the five rich and rival business families in the Three Kingdoms era at the end of the Han Dynasty.
Lou Gui arranged all the things that Qin Yu needed through the door of the Ma family.
Money is not a problem for Qin Yu now.
Qin Yu had not only sold some well water through Lou Gui Fengji before.
Later, when Liu Hong sealed Qin Yu's inner marquis, he also rewarded a large amount of silver coins at the same time.
It can be said that the interception of Qin Yu arranged by Yuan Shao and a group of other family members in the middle of the way really angered Liu Hong.
This wave of large amounts of silver money rewards can also be described as Liu Hong's revenge reward in desperation.
All of a sudden, Qin Yu didn't have to worry about running out of money for a long time.
The money that has been rewarded alone is counted in the tens of millions.
Qin Yu can not care about other things, but when it comes to his own affairs, Qin Yu naturally will not let go of the slightest.
It's like this elementary papermaking technique that he has in his skill slot now.
That's right.
Papermaking is a skill that he has mastered.
It's just that this skill is really a bit of a chicken in Qin Yu's opinion.
According to Qin Yu's understanding of his own skills.
If he can take the basic papermaking technique to the intermediate papermaking technique.
Naturally, there are a lot of details about papermaking in my mind.
Naturally, it can be used to optimize the process of their paper workshop.
But the problem is.
If he wants to upgrade his papermaking skills, he must follow those craftsmen step by step to produce paper bit by bit.
Each piece of paper is produced, and it is a piece of paper that he personally participates in.
to provide him with an experience bonus.
Qin Yu only made two pieces of paper with his own hands and then gave up.
It took too much time and effort.
It doesn't match the efficiency of acquiring this experience at all.
And even if it's this skill, what's the use of it?
Could it be that he really wants to soak in this kind of place to make paper after his skill level is high in the future?
That's obviously not possible.
Other words.
In fact, there are thousands of things that can be provided in this world for Qin Yu to improve his skills.
But there are a lot of skills that are ineffective and useless.
Even if there is, there is no need to improve.
It's like this paper-making technique.
After passing on his upgraded papermaking skills to these core craftsmen.
Qin Yu decisively did not manage these craftsmen anymore.
These artisans are now living on the outskirts of Xiaofang Village for the time being.
Enjoying the daily golden corn and the well water that had been upgraded once, plus the papermaking skills that Qin Yu had given them.
This made them now seem to have regarded Qin Yu and the people in those small villages as immortals.
Qin Yu didn't explain either.
The problem he was thinking about now was that the upgraded papermaking technology must not be leaked out in a short period of time.
But when he turned back and accomplished what he wanted to achieve.
Papermaking outflow or something, he won't care anymore.
This kind of technology will definitely be a tool that can be used to collect money for the Maison in a short period of time.
But in the long run.
This is to dig out the foundations of those families themselves.
Why not?
At that time, Qin Yu only needs to control high-quality technologies such as high-end rice paper.
Except for papermaking, which is almost on the right track of research and development.
Qin Yu has spent almost all of his time burning glass lately.
The burning of glass was much more complicated than he had imagined.
It's all about the raw materials.
When Qin Yu first talked to those craftsmen, he was talking about burning sand.
But why the sand is burned, and to what extent the glass will come out, he himself can't say.
Later, I put it aside and burned it, but I didn't burn anything at all.
After pondering and meditating for a long time, Qin Yu felt that it would not work like this.
Then let each of the craftsmen come up with a whimsy.
No matter what kind of idea, as long as there is an idea, someone will write it down.
After summarizing, they were all placed in front of Qin Yu.
The rest is for the system to do the rest.
Qin Yu didn't know how to burn glass, anyway, he only needed to see which of those written recipes needed to consume the least fragments.
It's really possible.
In the end, Qin Yu obtained a plan that only needed 10 blue shards to upgrade successfully in the hands of a craftsman who had experience in firing ceramics.
Qin Yu was overjoyed.
He carefully read the instructions in the plan.
From this plan, it can also be seen that this craftsman has really been forced by Qin Yu to run out of tricks.
Anyway, Qin Yu said it, let them associate it casually.
He simply thought of the glaze he fired when he fired porcelain.
Although there is not much connection between the glaze and the translucent glass that Qin Yu said.
But all in all, both of them are very beautiful.
Qin Yu thought of the glaze on the porcelain, and his eyes lit up: "Could it be that this thing is not the same as glass?" ”
After that, it's simpler.
He summoned the craftsman directly and asked him to describe in detail the process of firing the glaze.
All of the raw materials that need to be used are recorded.
Really.
After a detailed record of the manufacturing process of the glaze.
Qin Yu looked at it again.
The cost of upgrading this [Broken Fired Glass Process] is reduced to just 10 green shards!
"System, give me an upgrade!"
Qin Yu's excited old tears were rampant.
If he wasn't so wasted and didn't know how to burn glass, how could he have fallen to such an extent?
If it weren't for such a universal system.
I'm afraid he's really going to suffer a lot!
With the recipe in place, the matter of firing glass is finally on the agenda.
In this glass firing process, Qin Yu was provided with a lot of usable raw materials.
However, it is really difficult to fire pure transparent glass.
Later, Qin Yu thought about it, and he figured it out.
Why do you have to pursue that kind of pure transparent glass?
To get a glass bottle to fill water, it is simply because the jade bottle is too expensive and too scarce.
All he needs to do now is add a high added value to the outer packaging of the well water.
At a glance, people can know that this well water is definitely not ordinary.
So.
In this day and age.
Even that translucent tinted glass is a rare occurrence.
As long as Qin Yu could make tinted glass, it would be enough to achieve the strategic goal he had envisioned before.
After having such an idea.
Qin Yu picked out a whole set of raw materials from the upgraded process of firing glass, and the easiest way to obtain them was the easiest way to obtain them.
It was then passed on to those core craftsmen.
Let them study it carefully.
And after carefully explaining to them the approximate shape of the glass bottle he finally needed.
Qin Yu didn't interfere with their research anymore.
After that, more than half a month.
Although there are still craftsmen in Thornyang City from time to time, they are recruited by documents.
However, these craftsmen who came later were all grouped into the third phalanx.
When they come, they can only do some basic work.
September 182.
At the same time that the second batch of five hundred green glass grasses planted by Qin Yu matured.
Zhang Jiao is out of customs.
"Master, how is the situation of the foundation building and refining system?"
Qin Yu came to the alchemy room, he looked at Zhang Jiao, whose face was emaciated, and even the silver spirit grass could not make up for the withered horns, and his heart was full of expectations.
Zhang Jiao's physical condition looks very bad.
But at the moment, his eyes seemed to be shining brightly.
Qin Yu knew it in his heart.
This is obviously because Zhang Jiao has transformed all the energy in his body into spirit.
It's like a martial artist transforming the qi and blood in his body into true qi.
Scribes are also able to transform the qi and blood in their bodies into spirit.
Their brains expend a lot of energy when they're running fast.
On weekdays, these scribes did not eat much.
But once you wait until that kind of time when they need to greatly improve their mental power to calculate.
This kind of consumption is terrifying.
The same is true for Zhang Jiao's alchemy.
Alchemy is a delicate job.
Zhang Jiao wanted to perfectly refine the medicinal power contained in the Green Glass Grass and the Silver Spirit Grass.
It will inevitably consume a lot of qi and blood.
It's just that Qin Yu didn't expect it.
His qi and blood will be consumed so violently.
