Chapter 206 No More

For a long time, many scholars believed that glass was imported.And there are many records in history books that this thing came from the Western Regions and other places.That's why Yang Manyue has always believed that Chinese people don't know how to make glass.

In fact, she is so rare.

Later generations found 3 pieces of glass inlaid on the Wu Wang Fucha sword unearthed in Glass Pavilion, Huixian County, Henan Province, and the Yue King Goujian sword unearthed in Jiangling, Hubei Province also had 2 pieces of glass inlaid. Amazing conclusion.

These pieces of glass contain a large amount of lead and barium, which is completely different from the West Asian glass of the same period.West Asia glass needs a lot of sodium when making it, which belongs to soda-lime glass.Western glass contains very little lead, and high barium glass did not appear until the 19th century.Therefore, the only reasonable explanation is that these glasses are made in China.

It's just that the glass with lead and barium has become more fragile, and it is still very difficult to manufacture, so it has never become popular, and glass has become synonymous with luxury.

It is precisely because it has not become popular that many people do not know that Chinese craftsmen can also make glass.In fact, the earliest glass workshops in China existed in the early Ming Dynasty. Xiye Street in Boshan is where the glass workshops are concentrated. On the gate of this street, there is an inscription "Pearl Agate Green, Amber Glass Street"10 big characters.

The snuff bottles produced in this area were once famous in Europe.

Naturally, Man Yue didn't know about these things. Hearing Leng Yun's words, she was immediately stunned.

Seeing her staring round eyes, Leng Yun somehow felt a little happy in his heart.

For a long time, a certain girl has appeared as if she "knows everything in the world", and now she suddenly sees something she doesn't know, how can it make people feel unhappy?
The most important thing is that a certain girl doesn't know it, but he knows it coldly. This somehow makes a certain old man who has always grown up feel that he has regained a little bit of his dignity as a man.

He kindly gave a certain girl some popular science, and then said: "You said to use glass to make a greenhouse? The price is not so high."

Well, glass is still a luxury item. Even though artisans can make it, Man Yue still thinks there is a problem with the process inside.

For example, the application of the crucible is very problematic. In addition, if the heat storage chamber is not designed, even if the temperature reaches the melting point of the glass, it will increase a lot of costs. Moreover, Leng Yun said that the glass is not transparent and green, which clearly means that there is a problem with the ratio. There are also elements that don't need to do this.

Something that cannot be mass-produced is, in her view, a failure.The only good news is that now there are craftsmen who know how to make glass in Daming, and a junior high school student in later generations will know the material for making glass, which is nothing more than the ratio of quartz stone and feldspar. When the two are combined, Man Yue suddenly feels that he is on top of this There is something to do.

The process will not be smooth, but sometimes industrial manufacturing is actually a matter of concept. If there are craftsmen who can make glass, as long as you tell them what you know, is it still far away from completely transparent glass with less air bubbles? ?

More importantly, she also knows how to make coke, so mass production is not a problem!
Thanks to our party for the exam-oriented education. Although the full moon was full of hatred back then, after the children who had been devastated by the exam-oriented education came to this ancient time, a little bit of knowledge like a panacea can play a role!
Thinking of this made her feel refreshed, as if she had seen another money-grabbing industry beckoning to her.

Pressing his heart, he said excitedly: "Then we have to find some craftsmen like this. As for Xiyi, I am afraid that glass and mirror manufacturing will not be taught. I heard from those foreign monks that Europa's mirror glass manufacturing center is in Venice. To spread the technique to the outside world, but a lot of hands and feet have been done."

"I have heard the French envoy say that."

Leng Yun nodded, "But now France can also make mirrors, and they are all mirrors as tall as a person..."

"what?!"

Man Yue was taken aback, "The French have mastered pouring legal plate glass?!"

To make a mirror as tall as a person, it is necessary to master the manufacture of flat glass. It was not until the seventeenth century that the French were able to make flat glass.

Leng Yun looked at her strangely, and said, "Why are you so proficient in Xiyi knowledge..."

She was startled, and then said, "I like reading miscellaneous books..."

These words are all loopholes, Leng Yun's eyes showed inquiry, but he didn't ask any more, he just said: "Then you want to find a craftsman, can you also make that glass?"

"That's not sure."

She shook her head, "Just thinking that we are not stupid than humans, maybe we can have some ideas after thinking about it."

Leng Yun nodded, "If we can grow some vegetables in winter, it will be hard to find a dish worth a thousand bucks."

Man Yue smiled and said: "My way is not only to satisfy my appetite. Don't you feel panic when you come into contact with the French envoys? I feel terrified when I hear it. They may not understand the Four Books and Five Classics, but they can come to my Daming through the vast ocean. On the other hand, my Daming, although it is engaged in maritime trade, basically mainly trades with Japan and North Korea. As for The trade with Xiyi Hongmao uses Luzon (now the Philippines) as a transit point, what do you see?"

Full Moon said a little excitedly: "We are all only cruising in the coastal waters. Westerners have crossed thousands of oceans to come to Daming, but I, Daming, don't know where Europa is!"

Leng Yun was a little stunned, Man Yue's words had too much impact on him!

Westerners have crossed all oceans to Daming, but I, Daming, don’t know where Europa is!
These words were like a heavy hammer hitting his heart, which made him suddenly realize the gap between Daming and the world.

The French have all come to pay tribute, but they, the Ming people, don't know where France is.

Know yourself and know your enemy and you will never be imperiled in a hundred battles. They have already lost the opportunity first!

Clenching his hands unconsciously, thinking of Zheng He's treasure ship back then, he couldn't help but say angrily: "The blueprint of the treasure ship was destroyed, and my Ming Dynasty has lost the ability to sail far. If you can travel along the sea, otherwise you will get lost, and all the route maps of Zheng He's voyages to the ocean are gone..."

"Zheng He's nautical chart is gone, but Xi Yi has it."

The full moon pursed her lips, and the corners of her mouth showed a hint of coldness, "The masters are among the people, if the imperial court is willing to spend their energy, what can stop us from waiting for the descendants of Yan and Huang? Most of the Xiyi who came to my Ming Dynasty were poor and rich, and they wanted to do some sailing. Drawings are not difficult either.”

"You're right."

Leng Yun nodded, and after a moment of silence, he said: "In the first year I came to Ningbo, I discovered that many western barbarian countries were established by merchants, and many people came to Daming with the approval of the domestic king. , but the imperial court did not participate. I used to think it was a good thing, not to compete with the people for profit, but sometimes I think that there are some things that the people can't do..."

"good."

Full Moon nodded, "Countries can also trade directly with other countries. For example, there are many obsolete weapons in our Ming army, and we can sell them to Ryukyu or Luzon natives. Individuals can't do this, but the court can."

Leng Yun opened his mouth and couldn't help shaking his head, "I'm afraid this is a fool's dream."

"Hey."

Full Moon chuckled and said: "Then build warships and protect the sea merchants of my Ming Dynasty. Only ships of my Ming Dynasty are allowed to wander in the sea of ​​my Ming Dynasty!!!"

"Ah."

Leng Yun chuckled, "Why do I think you are very aggressive?"

Full Moon rolled her eyes and said, "Everyone has a heroic dream. The difference is that some people can realize it, and some people can't. When the time is right, anyone can be a hero, a saint..."

"Very meaningful words."

Leng Yun patted his leg and said, "Come here."

Man Yue curled her lips and said, "Why are you here? I'm not a puppy."

"That……"

He said blankly, "Do you want me to go there?"

Not only did she shiver, "Just tell me if you have something to do...let me go and do what?"

"miss you."

"..."

His face was a little hot, this person was really bored|sexy, this is too straightforward.

"I'm tired……"

I found an excuse that I thought was bad, and slowly got up and wanted to go to the back room.

You let me go there?Isn't it embarrassing for me?

Well, a certain girl is also arrogant.

He walked all the way to the bedroom, looked back, and was a little surprised: Didn't follow?
Huh?
what's the situation?
Do you actually want him to come with you?What to do next?
God!

When did I become full of filth|filthy thoughts?
Just as she was thinking wildly, a figure suddenly appeared behind her, and a hoarse voice floated from above her head, "I have to go home, you need to recover well, if you dare to run around..."

The waist was suddenly hugged tightly, and the man's warm breath sprayed in his ears, "You know..."

Not only did his body tremble, he said, "I, where can I go!"

"Humph!"

His cold snort came from next to his ear, "Your ability is not so great, you can even do bitter tricks, what else can't you do?"

She pouted, but said nothing.

Knowing that he is distressed about himself, so I really can't be more serious.

Seeing her like this, Leng Yun felt helpless, thinking that he would send a few people over to watch, otherwise he was really worried.

This girl is a monkey, as long as he relaxes, she will cause trouble for you, and get himself covered in bruises every time, he doesn't expect to marry a young daughter-in-law covered in bruises every now and then.

It's bad enough to think about it.

Marquis Leng, who had always been fearless, suddenly felt that he had found a child for himself instead of a wife, so he was too worried.

Seeing that he suddenly fell silent, she was a little curious, and couldn't help turning to look at him, "What's wrong?"

"nothing……"

He shook his head, saw that there was concern in her eyes, and his heart was a little weak, he couldn't help tightening his arms around her, resting his chin on her shoulder, and said in a low voice: "Don't worry me anymore..."

The man's words were a bit exhausting and helpless, and she was moved in her heart, and she murmured: "Uncle, it won't happen in the future..."

A pair of small hands couldn't help tightening, "No one will dare to bully me like this in the future..."

　I have something to do today, another busy day... I'm so sweaty, I'm afraid it will be too late for today's monthly pass, let me owe you another debt, humming, covering my face... There will be another update later!
