The duke of the governor's family is leaving again

Chapter 322 Mid-Autumn Festival Coming
"I heard from Fang Zhizhou that Chen Yu was able to make glass that is clearer than colored glaze."

Sure enough, he was called here because of this matter.

Chen Yuan was determined, responded with a smile on her face, and said excitedly, "That's true, Mr. Lu came looking for me, but Mr. Fang has already found the quartz mine?"

"Yes."

"Great, now you can make glassware for blood tests."

The smile on Lu Zhifu's face was faint, "At that time, Chen Yuzuo will make a great contribution to the detection of the Nanliguo criminal case. I heard Fang Zhizhou say that glass is a good thing, but he didn't say it in detail. Chen Yuzuo Can you elaborate."

"Glass is easier to make than glass, and the cost is lower, and the selling price is much cheaper. And glass can not only make all kinds of transparent containers, but also replace window paper and tiles to make the room brighter and less leaky. It also has great commercial value." Chen Yuan threw out the bait appropriately.

"It sounds like a good thing that benefits the country and the people."

Prefect Lu stroked his beard gently, "After Fang Zhizhou told me about this matter, he has already found quartz, feldspar, saltpeter and other mines in Lingnan territory."

mine!

That's a lot of storage.

I'm afraid it will be a disadvantage to directly negotiate a deal with the magistrate, so Chen Yuan squeezed the palm of her hand.

"Master Zhifu, this subordinate is willing to dedicate the method of making glass to...you."

At the last moment, Chen Yuan still swallowed the word royal.

Dedicating the method of making glass to the emperor is naturally the most beneficial.

But the emperor was too far away, and she went to the capital to trouble, and offered it through layers of officials, who knows if she would be intercepted.

It is better to exchange benefits immediately.

Prefect Lu looked at her suspiciously, "Dedicated to me?"

Chen Yuan was not good at sycophancy, so she was a little nervous, "Yu Gong, my lord is dedicated to serving the court and the people of Nanling, and dedicating to your lord is to dedicating to the court."

"What about private?"

"In private."

Chen Yuan lowered her head in embarrassment, and repeated what she said to Guan Zhixian earlier.

"This subordinate is the daughter of a guilty minister. Before she was exiled to Nanling, she had a childhood sweetheart fiancé in the capital. This subordinate misses him in his heart. Therefore, I want to offer this method and exchange it with a letter of entry to Beijing."

"I see."

Lu Zhifu's face was calm, not as happy as Guan Zhixian's, and Chen Yuan anxiously waited for the result.

"This matter is not difficult. Once the glass is made, Chen Yu has made a lot of contributions. It is just a trivial matter to enter Beijing."

"Thank you, Prefect Lu!"

"That being the case, the government ordered Chen Yuzuo to assist Cai Gongshu in the workshop to make glass."

"Subordinates take orders."

There are also six shadows in the six chambers of the magistrate's yamen.

After Chen Yuan took the order, she took the warrant from the prefect of Lu and went directly to the workshop, where she found Cai Lixu, the official secretary.

Cai Gongshu is a thin, dark old man, over half a century old, but full of energy, his hands covered with scars and calluses, he looks like a man of action.

This is really good news, Chen Yuan was quite afraid of meeting a servant who was just pretending to be someone in the magistrate's yamen.

"Meet Cai Gongshu!"

"you are?"

He handed over the magistrate's warrant and explained his intention.

Cai Gongshu's eyes lit up, "Things that are clearer and more transparent than colored glaze are interesting. Since Mr. Lu asked you to assist me, you should stay in the workshop during this time and don't go to the execution room."

"Yes."

Cai Gongshu is a man of action, and immediately asked about the required materials and the ratio.

Chen Yuan unreservedly told the recipe she remembered.

Cai Gongshu didn't write it down in his notebook, he squinted his eyes and memorized it silently.

"Tomorrow you will follow me to Baima Mountain, [-] miles away from the west gate of Fucheng. There are many kilns there. Today you go back and prepare your clothes. After we go there, if the firing is not successful, we may not be able to come back."

The ancient houses were all made of wood, which was easy to catch fire, so the kilns were naturally located in the wilderness.

Although she was mentally prepared, Chen Yuan was actually a little worried about killing the donkey, because only the dead would not reveal the recipe for making glass.

But at this moment, she could only bite the bullet and continue to respond.

If she didn't make any meritorious service, if she didn't make enough credit to show her face in front of the magistrate, how could she get the document to enter Beijing?

Little Chen Yuan's wish, she couldn't fulfill it.

Because of his previous relationship with Mr. Liao, the criminal secretary of the punishment room, Shui Sheng is good at kung fu, and has experience as a yamen servant, so he is also applying for a job as a yamen servant at the government office.

Although there is no rank, the yamen servants of the magistrate's yamen are more prestigious than the county yamen servants, and even the uniforms of the yamen servants are more beautiful.

It is always difficult for newcomers to mix into a new workplace at the beginning.

Not to mention that Shui Sheng is not a tactful person. After half a month, he has not made friends as close as he was with the county government, but everyone will still say hello in face.

Originally, Chen Yuan thought that he would come to her after he was on duty.

When he didn't want to leave the studio, he met Shui Sheng.

"Sister-in-law."

"Brother, what are you doing in the workshop?"

"The team leader asked me to come to the workshop and follow Cai Gongshu's orders." Shui Sheng scratched his head, "Junior sister, you are not in the torture room, what are you doing in the workshop?"

You can't talk about the glass in a place where people come and go, Chen Yuan patted his arm, "You go into the room and talk to Cai Gongshu, we will talk about it when we eat."

"Oh."

In fact, Chen Yuan didn't want Shui Sheng to follow her to Baima Mountain. She was afraid that both of them would be stuck there. With him outside, if something happened, he could still run away.

But prefect Lu asked Shui Sheng to go, and she couldn't stop her.

Since you can't stop it, you have to prepare for the worst.

Shui Sheng came out without saying a word when he entered the room, with a happy smile on his face, "Junior Sister, we can do business together again."

"That's really, really good."

Chen Yuan took Shui Sheng to find a restaurant, ordered two meat and two vegetables, and paid homage to the Wu Zang Temple.

Shui Sheng obeyed her boss's orders very much, and didn't ask Chen Yuan about tomorrow's mission until she returned to the dormitory.

This saves Chen Yuan from making up excuses to trick him.

Lying to children always makes people feel guilty.

In the past half month, Chen Yuan, who was squeezed out and had nothing to do, approached the horse breeder in the magistrate's yamen stable and taught her how to ride a horse.

Although she is still not good at riding, she can now ride a horse.

It is said that too many skills do not overwhelm one's body, but no, it will be used the next day.

A group of six people, everyone riding a horse, will not be dragged back because of her riding in a carriage.

After learning how to ride a horse, she walked a long distance for the first time. When she got off the horse, Chen Yuan's legs were numb, not to mention the two legs were fighting, and she felt that the skin on the inside of her thighs was worn out.

Fortunately, Shui Sheng took her hand, otherwise she would have fallen off the horse and lost face.

There are six kilns in Baima Mountain, which are distributed around Baima Mountain.

Because many workers are needed to make porcelain, a small town was formed at the foot of Baima Mountain 100 years ago.

The town is very lively, because the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, and many shops have begun to hang ribbons on their doors.

Strings of small lanterns are only to be lit at night.

There are many traditional festive activities in Lingnan, and before nightfall, Chen Yuan felt everyone's enthusiasm for preparing for the festival.

Chen Yuan was supported by Shui Sheng into the Ma's Inn.

Cai Gongshu, who entered first, was warmly welcomed in by a middle-aged man dressed as a businessman, and was offered a cup of herbal tea.

The middle-aged man looked up and down in surprise when he saw Chen Yuan standing up with the yamen servants.

"Cai Gongshu, who is this?"
