Chapter 62: I Want to Grow Up

The academy has its own rules, so even if Wang Quan is the head of the three elders of the town, there is no way to forcibly stop it at this moment.

As for whether to report to the official or not, it is also up to the college to decide at its discretion.

In short, this dumb loss, the Wang family must eat it.

Of course, since it is a drama, Chen Mo still has to do a full set.

Considering that Wang Jun was beaten very lightly, he asked Huang Shulang to apologize, and then left with him swaggering.

Before parting, Chen Mo specially told Huang Shulang to show up as little as possible in the past few days, so as not to happen today.

At most, in half a month, Wang Jun will go to the state academy to report and get rid of him first.

Of course, if you are bored at home, you can go to Baijiazhuang, but you must be ready to work.

"As long as you follow Master, you can do anything."

Huang Shulang left a sentence and hurried home.

Before, he felt like he was not free at home, and he spent his days thinking about how to escape.

After being held for a long time, I realized how warm the place was.

Huang Shulang's view of his family belongs to the awakening after experiencing setbacks, while Chen Mo is completely different, and he has been deeply concerned about it from beginning to end.

After going back, Lin Feng was leading people to work in the cowshed, while Qin Xianglian and Qin Qing'er were serving tea and pouring water.

Seeing Chen Mo coming back, both of them greeted him.

"Official, Brother Lin said that you asked you to dig the cowshed, what is a pond kiln?" Qin Xianglian asked.

"I'm trying to figure out how to explain it." Chen Mo scratched his head, "Do you know what glass is?" ”

Glass?

Qin Xianglian and Qin Qing'er glanced at each other and shook their heads.

"How to put it, it is placed on the window, which can transmit light and protect it from the wind and rain." Chen Mo explained.

"What the official said, but Mingwa?" Qin Xianglian suddenly realized, "In the past, when I helped the officials clean up the bookcase, the slave family once saw a miscellaneous book, which had an introduction to Mingwa. ”

"The most common way to make it is to use the horn, which is first boiled into a horn liquid, then added to it with colored pigments, pressed into thin sheets, solidified and ready to use. In addition, it is also possible to make Ming tiles from natural transparent mica sheets, and later shells became the main material. ”

That's right, the shell is polished to make it thinner, and after it is translucent, it is installed on the window, which becomes the shell window, also known as the "mussel shell window". ”

Chen Mo didn't expect Qin Xianglian to know this, and seeing Qin Qing'er's blank face, he explained two more sentences.

"For the windows of ordinary people's homes, the materials are generally made of kraft paper or white cotton paper soaked in tung oil, and the high-grade ones are clam shells and the like, that is, Ming tiles."

"What is the difference between the glass that my brother-in-law said?" Qin Qing'er was extremely curious.

"To put it simply, the processing and production methods are different," Chen Mo said patiently, "The glass is fired, and the others are not." ”

"Is it like burning charcoal?" Qin Qing'er asked.

"Almost, it's all about fire anyway."

After speaking, Chen Mo walked straight towards the cowshed.

"Qing'er, if you really want to know, accompany me to burn the kiln in the next two days."

"Okay."

Qin Qing'er nodded hurriedly.

"Lin Feng, how's it going?" Chen Mo walked into the cowshed and asked.

"The kiln is easy to dig, the key is those molds, we have not touched these, we don't know how to match and install the right one."

Lin Feng raised his finger and went to the pond kiln, which already had a rudimentary form.

"Just dig it up, and I'll take care of the rest."

After reading it, Chen Mo nodded with satisfaction, and then motioned for Lin Feng to go out and speak.

"Lin Feng, have you seen these things, arrange for the two of you to grind them into powder, the finer the better."

What Chen Mo refers to are all things that he had commissioned to buy from Yaxing before, that is, the raw materials for firing glass.

There are quartz sand, soda ash, limestone, and many more.

At first, Chen Mo was worried that it would be difficult to find, but he didn't expect that all the gorgeous books were all purchased, even if some of them were not of high purity, they were also very rare.

"Shimei, I have a question, can you answer it?"

Lin Feng is a well-known skilled craftsman in Qingyang Town, and after discovering new things, it is inevitable that his interest will increase.

"You say."

"Since it's a kiln, it must be used to fire things, but looking at these materials, I haven't seen many of them, what are they used for?"

"Make glass." After Chen Mo finished speaking, he hurriedly added, "As for what glass is, you'll know when I burn it." ”

"Can I watch you burn?" After Lin Feng asked, he felt a little abrupt.

"Absolutely."

Chen Mo didn't care, and in his plan, these things were supposed to be taught to Lin Feng, and even the glass factory in the future would let him take care of them.

Of course, that's a story for later.

What we need to do now is to start a fire and open the kiln as soon as possible.

When the kiln is burned, it will be destroyed.

First, Chen Mo had a plan to build a new house, even if he didn't destroy it now, he wouldn't be able to keep it when he demolished the house.

Second, it was still too early to build a glass factory, and if he hadn't been in a hurry to prepare a gift, he wouldn't have thought about firing glass so quickly.

After getting Chen Mo's affirmative answer, Lin Feng happily took people to get busy.

Chen Mo didn't dare to be idle, and began all kinds of preparations.

This busy, it came to night.

And throughout the night, Chen Mo only did two things.

One is to open the fire and raise the kiln, and the other is to prepare the ingredients.

The appearance of concentration seemed to be in a state of self-forgetfulness, so that Qin Xianglian shouted several times, but Chen Mo did not make any response.

"Sister, when did my brother-in-law become like this?" Qin Qing'er leaned against the window and asked.

"From the day the float was destroyed." Qin Xianglian said with some worry, "Qing'er, you don't know, many times, I feel that officials are like having changed their souls, and it seems that everything is different from before." Whether it is the nature of the heart, or the way of life, it is difficult to see the shadow of the past anymore. ”

"Sister thinks, is this change good or bad?" Qin Qing'er's gaze always swirled around Chen Mo's body.

"Nature is good, everything is good."

Speaking of this, Qin Xianglian's face became a little shy, and there was more admiration and pride in her eyes.

"Isn't there a drawback?"

Qin Qing'er seemed to be asking a question, and she also seemed to be talking to herself.

Qin Xianglian was unaware of it, and nodded with a smile: "Anyway, in my sister's opinion, officials have no shortcomings, as for what other people think, what does it have to do with me?" ”

"In this way, Qing'er is really a little envious of her sister." Qin Qing'er put her hands on her cheeks, and a little yearning appeared on her slightly immature face.

"If Qing'er really wants to be so envious, she will serve the officials with her sister in the future." Qin Xianglian tilted her head, smiling lightly and showing seriousness.

Yes?

Qin Qing'er exclaimed in surprise, and hurriedly shrank back from the window.

"My sister is still the same as before, so I know that I am joking with Qing'er."

"You think it's a joke?" Qin Xianglian asked rhetorically, and then lowered the window, "Then let's go to sleep if my sister didn't say it." ”

"Sister, I ......"

Qin Qing'er wanted to speak, but she didn't know what to say, especially when she saw Qin Xianglian's plump waist, a touch of inferiority crossed her face.

In the end, he pouted angrily and lay down.

"Sister, will you give me all your eggs in the future?"

"Why?" Qin Xianglian was puzzled.

"I'm going to grow up."

After speaking, Qin Qing'er turned over and faced the wall, and there was no movement.
