When Emperor Wanli heard this, he naturally wanted to comfort him. also met with several main figures of the Liu family under the guidance of Liu's father. Of course, the main characters are only two people, Liu Mu and Liu Haonian. Although Liu Guangyuan and the Liu family have a close relationship, their identity is not enough to be received by Emperor Wanli.

However, Father Liu is also a very discerning person, he has long known that Emperor Wanli has something important to do this time, so he retired after briefly introducing his family. Subsequently, Liu Haojia directly introduced Emperor Wanli into the study.

As soon as he entered the study, Emperor Wanli was eagerly received: "Brother Liu, there is good news this time?" ”

Liu Haojia nodded and said, "There is indeed a way!" ”

Emperor Wanli was overjoyed and said: "Say it quickly, say it quickly, what is the way?" ”

Liu Haojia said: "Your Majesty, don't be impatient, the grass people will show you something first!" ”

After speaking, Liu Haojia turned around and took out a small box of Nanmu from the cabinet in the study. This box looks natural and has a late Tang style! This is specially made by Liu Haojia by craftsmen and made old, the purpose is to set off the atmosphere!

Emperor Wanli and the others saw that this box was already quite valuable, and they really felt that the contents must be more valuable! So the two of them watched with bated breath as Liu Haojia opened the box and took out a book-sized thing from it!

I don't know if Liu Haojia did it on purpose, he twisted his wrist with this flat thing, and the sunlight through the window shone on this object, and the reflected light crossed the eyes of the two people, and the dazzling sunlight stimulated the two of them to blink!

Needless to say, this thing is a mirror! In fact, Liu Haojia had already made mirrors a long time ago, but the almost capitalless business of doing a mirror business was naturally profitable, so he didn't dare to take it out at all! If he takes it out, I'm afraid that those big families will really not let him go! Now that I have Emperor Wanli as a backer, he dares to take out this technology with confidence and boldness!

When Liu Haojia stabilized the mirror in front of Emperor Wanli, Emperor Wanli immediately saw his face in the mirror! That's just a little bit of a picture! Taken aback, he immediately understood the function of this thing, he subconsciously touched his face, and blurted out: "Good baby! ”

After speaking, Emperor Wanli stretched out his hand and grabbed the mirror, put it in his hand and watched carefully. Liu Haojia had already added a frame to this mirror, so he didn't see a meridian when he went back and forth. However, after all, Emperor Wanli lived in the palace and was used to seeing good things, so he stretched out his hand and looked up after touching and knocking on the mirror: "Brother Liu, this thing of yours is made of colored glass, right?" I didn't know that Ruri could make a mirror like this! ”

Liu Haojia pointed to the mirror and said, "Long live the good eyesight!" This thing is similar to glass, but the effect is much better than glass! Do you think this thing will sell well? ”

Emperor Wanli didn't speak, Zhang Jia had already preemptively said: "It's easy to sell!" This babe is a personal want! I'm afraid it's expensive, and ordinary people can't afford it! ”

Liu Haojia nodded and said: "That's right, I'm not going to sell this thing cheaply, just to make money from those big families, so that they can pay for us to build a site and buy equipment!" ”

Emperor Wanli laughed when he heard this and said: "Okay, let them pay the money to get out of this evil breath in my heart!" ”

Zhang Jia stretched out his hand and touched the mirror and said, "I just don't know how much this thing is priced, and how much is the difference in between?" ”

Liu Haojia said: "Zhang Banban, why don't you first say a price that you think is feasible." ”

Zhang Jia picked up the mirror and looked up and down repeatedly, and said: "The glass itself is valuable, rare, this thing looks similar to the glass, I'm afraid it will cost two or three hundred taels to make it!" No matter how much there is, I'm afraid those big families won't be able to use it! ”

Emperor Wanli also nodded and said: "Yes, if it is two or three hundred taels of mirrors, let alone those big families, even I feel distressed when I use it!" ”

At this time, Liu Haojia said with a strange smile: "If it is one hundred taels, will everyone buy it?" ”

Emperor Wanli and Zhang Jia said almost in unison: "I will definitely buy it!" ”

They finished speaking, but looking at Liu Haojia's expression, they knew that there was a problem. Emperor Wanli blinked his eyes and said in a low voice: "Your mirror can't be very low, right?" ”

Liu Haojia nodded and said, "That's right!" The real cost of such a large mirror is less than a tael of silver! ”

In fact, the cost price of these two pieces of silver was said by Liu Haojiaduo, but it still scared Emperor Wanli and the others! Emperor Wanli said in surprise: "What, less than a tael of silver?" How is this possible? I have a string of glazed prayer beads, the grains are full and round, and they cost two thousand taels of silver! ”

Liu Haojia said with a smile: "Then Your Majesty, do you know how the glass is made?" ”

Emperor Wanli said casually: "Of course I know!" It is said that the kiln changes when the porcelain is fired! ”

Liu Haojia continued to guide and said: "Then does Your Majesty know what porcelain is fired from as a raw material? ”

Emperor Wanli said impatiently: "Of course it's porcelain clay...... Ah, is this mirror also made of clay? ”

Liu Haojia slapped his face and said, "Your Majesty is smart! Although this mirror is not made of earth, it is made of similar things, just sand mixed with some other things! ”

Emperor Wanli said with a face full of surprise: "Doesn't that mean that this thing is very cheap? ”

Liu Haojia said proudly: "Things are cheap, but the selling price is high!" Because this thing is the only one and two old potters in the Ming Dynasty who know the recipe and firing process, if you want a mirror, you have to buy it from me, so I say how much is how much! ”

At this time, Zhang Jia, who was stimulated and confused, muttered to himself: "The mirror of one hundred taels of silver actually wants to make a profit of 99 taels, this is a windfall from the sky!" ”

Hearing this, Emperor Wanli and Liu Haojia both burst out laughing! Liu Haojia said: "This is indeed a windfall! But if I take it out in advance, it will be a catastrophe for our Gu Ningbo Mansion! But now that His Majesty is taking care of it, the grass people dare to take this thing out! ”

Emperor Wanli rubbed his hands with a flushed face and said: "Then Brother Liu, you see that you dare to take out this thing only because of me, when you divide the silver, can I share a little more?" ”

Liu Haojia said: "That's natural, Your Majesty can even take the lion's share!" ”

Emperor Wanli laughed overjoyed, but Liu Haojia then said: "But Your Majesty, there is one thing to say in the front, the money from the sale of mirrors in the future will first be used to build a site and recruit personnel." Your Majesty wants cash, I'm afraid it will have to wait for a while! ”
