Chapter 39: Glass
Knowing that the master was coming, Zhang Jian hurriedly ran out of the 101 laboratory to greet him. came out with him, and a man in his twenties, although the two looked very different, but their temperament was very similar, and they were both very calm and introverted.
He is Zhang Jian's brother-in-law, Mr. Wang Yingxuan, a private school from Shaanxi.
Although Zhao Hao made great efforts to get Wang Xiucai from Shaanxi for his unborn son Wang Zheng, Wang Xiucai was proficient in arithmetic, astronomy, mechanical geography, and his scientific talent was surprisingly high.
This is not surprising, because it was under the guidance of his brother-in-law that Zhang Jian developed a strong interest in mechanical physics.
For this kind of outstanding talent, Zhao Hao naturally can't just keep breeding, but also let him shine. He was hired as the director of the 01 Iron and Steel Research Institute with a high salary.
"Brother Wang, how about it." Zhao Hao smiled and accepted the apprentice's bowing, and then called the apprentice's brother-in-law a brother.
Wang Yingxuan wears a pair of thick myopia glasses, which he has been wearing since coming to Jiangnan. At that time, he was too serious to continue studying, but he didn't expect that a small pair of tricks could cure the chronic disease that ruined his future.
After wearing glasses, he actually wanted to continue studying, after all, he was only in his early twenties, and it would not be a problem to take the exam in Shaanxi.
But the old Qin Zhi'en wanted to report it, Wang Yingxuan didn't say a word of nonsense, and plunged into the ravine of Chenjiawu.
Zhao Hao likes this kind of honest person who is easy to bully, and he is very polite to him.
It's just that being called the eldest brother by the brother-in-law's master makes Wang Xiucai, who pays attention to ethics very much, feel uncomfortable. However, he has a loyal temperament, serves people's jobs and serves others, and he will not say much.
"Brother Wang, is there any movement in my sister-in-law's stomach?" Zhao Hao's next sentence still made him almost break his work.
"Ahem, ahem!" Wang Xiucai's old face turned red, and he shook his head in embarrassment and said, "Yet, no." ”
"You have to work harder." Zhao Hao said with a smile: "Strive to have a few more, and spread out in the south of the Yangtze River." ”
"Hey, hey......" Wang Yingxuan nodded blankly, and couldn't figure it out if he wanted to break his head, why did he have to ask himself if his wife was there every time he met?
Fortunately, at this time, Xing Yunlu, the director of the 02 Institute, also heard the movement, and his junior brother Qu Rukui hurriedly came out of the 201 laboratory to meet the teacher.
Xing Yunlu was a student brought by Zhao Hao from Beijing, an astronomer who had not yet grown up, showing a strong interest in science, and Zhao Hao was really short of manpower, so he asked him to come to the center's mineral research institute for a few years.
As for Qu Rukui, everyone must be more unfamiliar, because they haven't mentioned it before...... It's really Zhao Gongzi's stall is getting bigger and bigger now,
You can't do it all in detail.
It's not temporary...... Serious face.
The Qu family is a big family in Changshu, Qu Rukui's father Qu Jingchun is the 23rd year of Jiajing's Huiyuan plus list, the chief official of the "Yongle Canon", the official to the Ministry of Rites Zuo Shilang and the bachelor of Hanlin, but he has been sick and returned to his hometown to live in seclusion.
Qu Rukui is the second son of Qu Jingchun, 19 years old this year, studying in Suzhou Prefecture. Unfortunately, he was poisoned by Li Zhaobeast and was fooled...... Oh no, I was introduced to Kunshan, worshipped Zhao Hao as a teacher, and studied science.
And it is a great honor to work with Xing Yunlu to be directly promoted from a fifth-level science student to a fourth-level 'registered disciple', and you can call Zhao Gongzi a master.
With Zhao's snobbery, he is willing to accept apprentices unusually, of course, because this person is like Xing Yunlu, and he is extraordinary.
In another time and space, this son-in-law, who has a lot of strokes in his name, is a noble person after Matteo Ricci came to the Ming Dynasty. It was he who instructed Matteo Ricci, who had been fooled into becoming a monk, to put on Confucian robes, study Confucian classics, and deal with scholars, which made Master Li's missionary career take a turn for the better.
He was also the first scholar in the Ming Dynasty to be fascinated by Western learning. Everything Ricci said had a great appeal to him. He studied diligently with Matteo Ricci for a year, and learned mathematics, spherical geometry, and the first volume of Geometry.
I also learned how to make a variety of sundials, how to measure height and distance, and by the way, learned the Italian language......
He learned all these in one year, and he is definitely an out-and-out genius.
It's a pity that he later damaged his reputation because of emotional disputes, and suddenly lived in seclusion, and has not been seen since, and has not left a great name in the history of science like Xu Guangqi and Wang Zheng.
Zhao Hao is eager for scientific geniuses, and even the underage Xu Guangqi will not let go, let alone the adult Qu Rukui. After learning that he was studying in Suzhou, he asked Li Zhen to help recruit him.
However, Zhao Hao has high expectations for him, and at present, he only asks him to make up for scientific knowledge, and has not yet arranged a specific job for him.
~~
Zhang Jian, Zhao Shizhen, Wang Yingxuan, Xing Yunlu, and Qu Rukui are the five King Kongs of the entire research center. In addition, they are all skilled craftsmen who do not know much about literacy......
Zhao Hao was attacked suddenly today, and the disciples didn't know what he was coming for.
After the greetings, he asked the master what instructions he had.
Zhao Gongzi said that I just didn't want to hunt, so he smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, I'm just here to take a look." ”
As he spoke, he glanced at Xing Yunlu and said, "Let's go to you first." ”
"Master, please." Xing Yunlu's expression tightened, and he hurriedly turned sideways to lead the way.
When they entered Lab 201, they saw that the tables and chairs in the room were all piled up in a corner, and the vacated ground was filled with bags of sand.
Several craftsmen poured several bags of sand with the same mark on a straw mat and spread a snow-white cloth sheet on it.
Then each craftsman picked up a fine-toothed bamboo rake and kept plowing the white sand on the straw mat.
Zhao Hao squatted down and took a closer look, and saw that a long black thin stone was tied to the teeth of each rake, and the stone continued to suck some black and brown powder out of the white sand.
"Is this removing iron from quartz sand?" Zhao Hao asked with a smile.
"Hehe, everything can't be hidden from Master." Xing Yunlu nodded with a smile and said:
"Last time, Master said that the yellow, yellow, green, and green of the glass are opaque, mainly because of the iron-containing impurities in the quartz sand. When I came back, I thought of this solution. ”
"Well, what happened to the glass that was burned now?" Zhao Hao nodded, Xing Yunlu's biggest problem and benefit are that he is more serious, especially suitable for this job.
"The progress is still obvious." Xing Yunlu asked people to carry the wooden shelves in the corner.
There are nine pieces of glass of different colors side by side, the yellow-green on the far left is the most intense, and the color is lighter the further to the right.
On each piece of glass, there is a label, on which the source of the material, the firing time, the color of the furnace flame and other test data are written.
It is completely in line with the scientific experiment method taught by Zhao Hao, which makes the teacher feel deeply gratified.
ps. The third shift, asking for a monthly pass, it's gone tonight.
