Chapter 8 Layout (8)
It turned out that for the sake of safety, Duan Ye had ordered that Sailim Zhuoer and Zheyan Nalan, who liked to run around the most, must stay in the mansion honestly and were not allowed to run around.
In fact, there is no way to do this, now Duan Ye is the master of Liangzhou, the so-called tree is a big move, he and Jiang Yu, Liu Yiru and others have the ability to protect themselves, and they are also quite careful, of course, they are safe. But Zhuoer and Nalan are already young, and their temperaments are a bit arrogant, so they are prone to problems in safety, and they don't like to bring escorts, so there are actually restrictions on going out of the house to play.
Of course, Duan Ye has no choice, and he doesn't want his women to become canaries, but in extraordinary times, extraordinary measures must be taken.
As for this mirror, being able to make it is actually a big thing, it is a matter of confidentiality, and of course it is not allowed to be taken out.
For a person like Duan Ye who has lived in the information age, the world is a glass world for him, except for sound and light. Modern buildings and residences, almost except for steel frames and bricks, are a piece of transparent glass. Standing in the building or indoors, you can see the traffic on the street; On airplanes, cars, and trains, through the windshield, you can be in the colorful world outside the window. In chemistry labs, hospitals, glassware can be seen everywhere; Through telescopes and microscopes made of glass, you can not only look at the boundless universe, but also deeply observe the secrets of the microscopic world. In daily life, drinking tea and drinking, holding glasses and cups, mirror frames on the wall, watches on the hands, crystal-like crafts on the shelves, and even glass balls played by children on the street, which one can leave the glass products? It's hard for Duan Ye to imagine what the world would be like without glass.
But here, Duan Ye discovered that everything around him really didn't have glass, and Duan Ye was suddenly messy!
Duan Ye had obviously seen it in the history books, saying that in the Shang and Zhou dynasties, China had already made glass, but when he asked here, everyone said that they had never heard of it, and when Duan Ye said that he could make a transparent material, which could be made into windows, utensils, mirrors, etc., everyone kept shaking their heads.
Of course, they didn't dare to look at Duan Ye with contempt now, because Duan Ye had already completed a lot of tasks that seemed impossible to them, and to complete another one and create a miracle.
Just do it, anyway, the glass industry is also very important, not to mention anything else, at least, if you can make glass on a large scale, how much money can you make just by making utensils?
Now that the world is temporarily in a balance of power, Duan Ye believes after a prudent assessment that at least for a year or two, the war of reunification cannot be fought temporarily, even if there is a local conflict, the overall situation is still peaceful, because in the year or two after the battle of Weishui, everyone in the world is tired, afraid, and has no strength, and everyone needs to rest and recuperate.
What do you want to do to recuperate? For dignitaries, the most important thing is, of course, enjoyment! At this time, if those dignitaries were given crystal clear glass bottles, glasses, and even glass lampshades, and glass mirrors, they might be willing to pay the same weight of gold and silver in exchange.
For Duan Ye, glass is nothing more than a mixture with silica as the main material, which can be made by heating quartz and limestone produced in this place, adding iron-containing catalysts, and finally condensing.
Technically, it's much easier than steelmaking or something. So Duan Ye said to do it, and when he thought of it, he started work.
Knowing the principle and talking to these craftsmen, the glass was actually made quickly.
Only at first, the glass looked very ugly, just a thin stone that was slightly more transparent, and the craftsmen wanted to laugh when they saw it, but they didn't dare to laugh.
If these things, the high-ranking officials and nobles in the mainland, are still willing to spend a lot of money to buy them, then it will be hell.
Duan Ye didn't give up, he knew that this was definitely not a matter of method, but a matter of proportion. In other words, it is important how much and how much to put in each material, and the order in which it should be placed.
In later generations, there was a formula for making glass, and I didn't have a formula for it, so of course I couldn't make it in the first place, so it's not surprising.
But this is also simple, the so-called formula, is nothing more than two parts, one is the process, that is, the skills of processing, and the other is the ratio, that is, the number of materials.
In later generations, to solve these two problems, people generally figure out why theoretically, such as how high the temperature to burn, how long to burn, and what kind of effect it will have.
Duan Ye didn't learn this, and there was no data to back it up, so of course he couldn't do it.
But don't worry, Duan Ye has another good way, and that is to keep experimenting.
To put it bluntly, Duan Ye uses the control variable method.
Now there are more blast furnaces, more raw materials, and more workers.
That's easy to do. Take a large set of stoves and materials, divide them into many groups, and in each group, all the other processes are the same, and the only variable is different, such as the firing time.
In this way, it is easy to be able to filter out how long it will be fired and the most suitable one.
Next, let's consider the ratio and other issues.
It only took half a month for Duan Ye to successfully fire the crystal clear glass!
When Duan Ye coated the silver behind the glass to make a mirror, all the workers were shocked!
Many of them can't afford expensive bronze mirrors at home, and they've seen themselves in the water in their lives. However, Lord Duan's mirror can accurately see what he looks like, which is really amazing!
Duan Ye asked with a smile at the time: "You say, is this thing worth a hundred gold?" ”
As a result, no one said that it was not worth it, and some people even said that the daughter was worth it, Duan Ye just smiled and said nothing.
Of course, there is still a problem, that is, the processing process is too rough, and Duan Ye has not made bottles, small wine glasses, and accessories at most.
But Duan Ye believes that sooner or later it will definitely be done, because the technology and principles, Duan Ye has already handed over to the factory, and also gave them a large amount of funds, so that they can develop repeatedly, they can blow it at will, do whatever they want, of course, the only purpose is to be as refined as possible.
Such a confidential matter is naturally very important, so in addition to giving them a high salary, Duan Ye also sent troops to surround this place, after all, this glass workshop is too valuable, if something happens, wouldn't it be a hard work.
Out of curiosity, Serim Zhuoer once took out this special bronze glass mirror made by himself, and Duan Ye's intelligence officers were so capable that they naturally found out at the first time, but when Duan Ye saw it, she just went to take it to Kumarosh, so she didn't say anything.
This time, it's not that I want to settle accounts after the autumn, it's just because I just remember it.
Selim Zhuoer's heart was a little weak, and he was naturally speechless.
However, she was speechless, which did not mean that others did not speak, so Bald Spirit took the opportunity to say: "Master, my lord, you told us that you sent a mirror to Na Fu Bao'er, just to teach the history of Liangzhou Thorn, right?" ”
"Uh, what's the better of it?" Duan Ye said busily.
"Don't you have any thoughts about people?" The bald spirit did not forgive.
"How is this possible!" Duan Ye hurriedly said, "You can't talk nonsense. ”
"How is this impossible?" Bald Ling smiled and said, "Look at you, you are young and promising, as the assassin of Liangzhou, you have tens of thousands of elite soldiers, and you also killed the anti-thief Lu Guang for the imperial court, what about her?" You are a princess, a beautiful crown, and smart, hehehe, and you, you are a good match, don't you say? ”
"Hehehe, this ...... Where is it? Duan Ye said with a dry smile.
It's just that in front of his own women, Duan Ye will never learn to hide his emotions well, and the smugness in his eyes still hasn't escaped the eyes of all women.
"Tut-tut." Bald Spirit was a little unforgiving, "Your Excellency, you're too proud." ”
"Humph!" Sailim Zhuoer was even more angry, and Duan Ye only then figured out that Xiao Nizi was angry for this.
At this time, Liu Yiru suddenly said: "My lord, do you really want to marry Fu Bao?" ”
"Huh?" Duan Ye was stunned, Liu Yiru was different from other women, she had a very high status in her heart, if she asked, she couldn't prevaricate.
Liu Yiru didn't wait for Duan Ye to answer, so he said: "You hesitated, it means that you have thought about it, right?" ”
"Yes!" Duan Ye was reluctant to lie and nodded calmly.
"Okay!"
Liu Yiru didn't wait for the bald spirit to jump up, so he held her down, and then said: "Actually, my lord, I think that if you really have this meaning, then it is a good way for Liangzhou and yourself." ”
"What do you mean by that?" Duan Ye asked.
"You're still playing stupid!" Liu Yiru said angrily, "You have already lived many times in your heart, haven't you?" ”
Duan Ye said twice, and didn't dare to say any more.
Liu Yiru said to Bald Ling and Selim Zhuoer: "Zhuoer, Ling'er, in fact, if you think about it, no matter who the master marries with Murong Rou, Fu Bao or the like, it is a political marriage, isn't it?" ”
"Hmm!" The two girls nodded in unison.
"You think, that Fu Bao, after all, is the princess of Daqin, has the appeal of the world, if the adult marries her and becomes a concubine, whether it is influence, status, or the benefits that can be obtained, it is very large, this alone is to support the adult, we are the women of the adult, and we should also consider the problem from the perspective of the interests of the adult, instead of being jealous."
Duan Ye was so moved that he was about to cry, this is a good woman!
Zheyan Nalan and Bald Spirit both nodded silently, but Bald Spirit still didn't forget to glare at Duan Ye fiercely.
