Chapter 1324: Grinding Lenses

Not long after Ying Feiyu came to Xianyang, he researched glass and opened a glass factory.

With the development of these years, the application of glass has become more and more extensive, and branches have been opened in various parts of Daqin.

At the same time, the factory in Xianyang has also expanded again and again, forming a certain scale!

As long as the glass products that can be seen on the market now, the factory can produce them all!

After the machine was delivered, the craftsmen in the workshop gathered one after another, crowding each other to watch this novel machine!

"What is this?"

"Who knows! I heard that His Majesty asked him to send it! ”

"Your Majesty asked me to send it? Surely there is something new going to be produced, right? ”

"Hmmm! I guess it's ......! ”

Ying Feiyu has not yet arrived, and the craftsmen have taken the lead in researching.

But it's just a look, and no one dares to do it.

Before they understand the specific purpose of this thing, once it is broken, they can't afford to take this responsibility!

"Director Mo, do you know this machine? What the hell is it for? ”

Huang Yuan managed too many factories and was also responsible for making new machines, so he handed over some factories to trusted people.

The glass factory involved a wide range of people, and he didn't dare to hand it over to outsiders easily, so he handed it over to his own nephew, Huang Zimo, to manage!

At this time, the director of the ink factory in the mouth of the craftsman is talking about him!

"This ...... I don't understand it either! ”

Huang Zimo touched his smooth chin, carefully studied the edging machine for a long time, and didn't see any doorways, "But what is certain is that the things produced by this machine must be very sophisticated!" ”

"Hmmm! That's right! ”

When the craftsmen heard the sound, they felt justified and nodded again and again.

About a quarter of an hour later, Ying Feiyu's car arrived outside the glass factory and strode in with two guards.

"Your Majesty is here......!"

"See Your Majesty's ......!"

Seeing the figure of Ying Feiyu, the craftsmen saluted one after another.

Ying Feiyu waved his hand, signaling that they didn't have to be polite.

Walk straight to where the machine is placed!

"See Your Majesty's ......!"

Huang Zimo saluted respectfully and asked with a puzzled face, "Your Majesty?" What exactly is the purpose of the machine you sent? We studied around for a long time, but we didn't see any way! ”

"Haha! That's right......! ”

Ying Feiyu squinted his eyes and smiled mysteriously, "This thing is called an edging machine!" The lenses can be sharpened to the right curvature! ”

The reason why he arrived a while later than the machine was because he had to learn how to use the edging machine.

This thing appeared in Daqin for the first time, and no one would use it at all.

If he doesn't even know how to be an inventor, then it's a bit of a stretch!

So after carefully looking at the structure and use of the edging machine in the palace several times, I came over!

"Lenses? Shouldn't lenses be flat? Why do you need to polish the curvature? ”

The lenses that Huang Zimo understands are the lenses on the dressing table, so he is very puzzled.

I even imagined in my mind what the person with curved lenses would look like!

"No, no, no! This lens is not the other lens! ”

Ying Feiyu shook his fingers, ordered someone to take out the lenses that had been exchanged in advance, and according to the method found on the system in advance, the edging machine was energized, the machine was adjusted, and it was polished.

The craftsmen gathered around the side, staring intently.

Reading glasses are different from myopia glasses, and the prescription required for each age group is about the same, and it does not need to be too precise.

So, he polished a pair according to the recommended degree!

The craftsmen looked at the pair of round glasses in Ying Feiyu's hand, and they were even more puzzled.

"What's the use of such a small pair of glass?"

"Binoculars, perhaps?"

"No, telescopes don't need this kind of machine to produce ...... at all!"

Everyone didn't understand the effect of this little lens, so they could only stare intently at Ying Feiyu to see his next move.

"Follow the drawings and build a frame! While setting the lenses, the lighter the better! ”

After checking the lenses and making sure that there was no problem, Ying Feiyu took out a drawing from his arms and ordered Huang Zimo to do it.

"Yes!"

Huang Zimo took the lens, opened the drawing, and answered.

After about half an hour, he turned back sweating profusely, "Your Majesty...... Your Majesty has been waiting for a long time! ”

After standing still, he quickly took out his glasses from his arms and handed them to Ying Feiyu, "Your Majesty, please see, how about this?" ”

Due to the short period of time, he had not made any preparations before, and he had found the materials with great difficulty.

It can't be too heavy, and the lenses have to be inlaid, and he and the craftsman have studied it for a long time before making it!

"Hmmm! OK! ”

Ying Feiyu took the glasses, almost no different from the drawings he made, and nodded with satisfaction.

In later generations, there were many, many different materials for frames.

Not only is it lightweight, but it's also very strong.

But in this era, there are only a few materials that can be used, and it is already good to be able to make such a thing in such a short time!

"Your Majesty! Forgive the grass people for talking too much, what the hell is this thing for? ”

Until now, Huang Zimo hadn't figured out the usefulness of this thing.

"This one...... Hey...... Go and call the old Zhao Tou who is guarding the gate! ”

The old man who was guarding the door was already full of gray hair, and he was probably in his fifties.

Both sons were in the army, leaving him alone at home, so he was left guarding the gate in the glass factory.

The glass factory has a staff canteen and dormitory, where you can eat and live, just to find a place for them to live!

"Uh...... Be! ”

Huang Zimo didn't know what he meant by doing this, but he also ordered someone to do it quickly.

The craftsman's movements were fast, and after a while, he turned back with the old man!

Although the old man is full of white hair, his body looks very tough, and his waist is straight, much stronger than those civil servants in the court!

"Your Majesty...... What does Your Majesty command? ”

The old man arched his hand, looking a little nervous.

"I ask you, what do you usually feel uncomfortable about things near you?"

Ying Feiyu put his hands behind his back and asked with a straight face.

"Huh? How does Your Majesty know ......? ”

The old man's cloudy eyes suddenly widened, as if he was very surprised, "In the past two years, somehow, it is okay to see things in the distance, but when I look at things near me, I feel very blurry, and I can't see clearly at all!" ”

Ying Feiyu smiled indifferently, and did not explain the reason, but ordered someone to find a copy of today's newspaper and handed it to the old man, "Maybe you can see the words on it clearly?" ”

"Uh...... Back to Your Majesty, old and decaying...... Rotten and illiterate! ”

The old man scratched his head and smiled awkwardly.

"It doesn't matter! To put it another way, you might be able to read the handwriting on it and imitate its handwriting? ”

"Uh...... No, it's too vague to see clearly! ”

The old man squinted his eyes and tried to see, but what he saw was still a blur.

Ying Feiyu nodded, withdrew the newspaper back, and asked again, "How about this?" ”

"Hmmm! It's a lot better than before, but I still can't see clearly! ”

Ying Feiyu nodded and took another step back, "What about this?" ”

"It's almost time this time, I can read what is written in the newspaper!"

The old man nodded again and again, revealing a slight smile.
