After eating from the store, it's time to get down to business.

Almost all of the foreign merchants of the Tang Dynasty are concentrated in the middle of the West Market, a little north of the city.

This is because there are a large number of inns for foreign merchants and shops for trading in jewelry and antiques.

When you get to this area, you can find that there are more of these glassware all of a sudden.

And all of them are worth a lot of money.

Li Chong also asked more or less to the test Li Chengqian: "If you want to find a foreign businessman who knows a little bit about the refining technology of colored glass, then where do you think such a foreign businessman is most likely to be found?" ”

Li Chengqian replied: "I don't know." ”

Li Chong: "I don't know, then I think." ”

Li Chengqian: "...... Looking for the largest business and the most goods in the store? ”

Li Chong: "Why? ”

Li Chengqian: "Because his business is so big and there are so many goods in the store, he must know some refining methods, otherwise it will be difficult to introduce the valuable goods." ”

Li Chong: "You can't say wrong, then go and give it a try." ”

Subsequently, the two picked the largest one.

The owner of the shop is Persian, and the store has a wide variety of things.

After Li Chong entered, he was not in a hurry to ask, but carefully looked at the things in the store.

Almost all of them are colorful glass.

However, it was found that there were very few white and transparent ones.

Probably because the ancients still liked to be more colorful and green, and they thought it was better-looking.

The shopkeeper spoke an exotic Tang dialect and asked, "Lang Jun, what do you want to buy?" I've got everything here. ”

Li Chong shook his head, "You guys here, that's all there is?" ”

The shopkeeper must not be able to stand this breath, you know, he is almost the largest Hu merchant store in the West Market.

It's lunch time, otherwise, there would be an endless stream of people coming here.

"Lang Jun, what do you want, as long as you can say it, I can find it for you."

Li Chong said, "I want a white and transparent bottle." What you put on this shelf is all fancy and green, and I don't like it. ”

The shopkeeper said, "White and transparent." ”

While talking, go back to find it.

Finally, a box was brought and when I opened it, there was a glass inside.

"Is that what you're talking about?"

Li Chong: "Yes, that's it!" In my opinion, it's much better than those flowery ones. ”

"This glazed ware is very rare because it is produced, so it is particularly precious, so that today to see the guests is also fate, and the guests will be sold twenty times."

The accompanying guards were shocked, and blurted out: "Why don't you go and rob it?" ”

The shopkeeper was not in a hurry at all, "This is the purest and most simple glass cup, I have a lot of others in this store, but this glass cup is an exception, this is a very rare object." ”

Li Chong said, "I'll give you sixty times." ”

“？”

“？”

Li Chong: "If you can get a glass cup like this again." ”

"I need a lot of glass cups like this, and the style is custom-made by my own hands."

"This ......"

"Why, can't it be done?"

"How is this possible, the villain just thinks that the guests are too generous."

"Don't ask, just ask Lang Jun, I'm not short of money."

"Guests rest assured, I can definitely do it for guests, but this place of origin is not here after all, if you want to get it, I'm afraid you have to wait."

"How long."

"At least one year. If something happens on the way......"

"Forget it, it's been too long, I can't wait."

Li Chong suddenly thought again, why make it yourself, isn't there a ready-made one here?

If you can melt the glass in your hand and draw it again, can you also make a glass tube?

Anyway......

The glass tube of the blood pressure monitor should also not require much glass.

As soon as this thought came to mind, Li Chong found that it seemed that his road had been wider.

Other than that......

These colors are not so dark, in fact, Li Zhong looked at it, and it was not impossible to try it.

It doesn't have to be completely transparent.

As long as it's relatively transparent.

"Let's go and see somewhere else."

"Eh, don't go, guest, then this ......"

Li Chong said: "There is only one, it is not perfect, and it is not the style I need, when I can't pick a good one, I will buy it again." ”

After saying that, he left the store without looking back.

This made the store directly angry, this is a big customer.

But be reasonable!

can be such a person who is not bad for money, he is really rare.

Then, I couldn't help but guess the identity of this group.

I feel that His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty should not have such a loser as the other party.

Go to another store.

Li Zhong concocted the same method.

Or not.

Li Chong could only show a disappointed expression to them.

Ben Langjun has money, but if you don't fight, there's no way.

Walked around for a day.

Almost the entire Hu merchants in the West Market knew that there was such a person.

In the acquisition of transparent glazeware.

I don't know what to do, but it's very generous.

At last......

Because he really couldn't find it, Li Chong had no choice but to take the second way.

Try to buy some ready-made ones and take them back to melt them yourself and see if you can reshape them.

Of course!

Let the people below do it.

And......

Li Zhong specially instructed that he must bargain.

This is completely different from the previous magnanimity.

Back in the temple.

Seeing that Li Chengqian seemed to be puzzled, he asked, "Do you know why?" ”

"Why?"

Li Chengqian also asked.

"If I really want to get a lot of white pure and transparent glass, or even how it is made, then of course I have to promise a lot of profits, but whether I buy it or not, it's all up to me. When they all felt that the white and transparent glazed ware was valuable because of the heavy profits, they purchased a large number of them from the Western Regions, but in fact, according to Datang's aesthetics, Datang should still prefer those flowers. I like white pure and transparent, but I personally need it, so I can buy cheaper and easier to use white pure and transparent glass. ”

"Of course! This is just theoretical, to put it bluntly, bragging and not breaking the law, I just want to pretend to be forced. Actually, I've seen whiter, purer and more transparent glass than this, and they're just so. ”

Li Zhong sighed.

In fact, the last sentence is the most pretending.

And Li Chengqian often feels that his teacher seems to be a little different from ordinary people.

"Teacher ......"

Li Chengqian was about to ask a question.

I saw that Li Chong happened to say: "After walking for a day, I almost died of exhaustion, so I went back to find someone to beat my legs." What did you just want to say? ”

"Nothing."

Seeing that the teacher put on his cloak and was ready to go back, he was embarrassed to ask.

"Then I'm leaving."

Li Chengqian stood aside and saluted.
