A great man of the Northern Song Dynasty

"make money?"

Zhao Xu actually has some squirrel attributes and likes to hoard things.

The 180,000 yuan is proof.

But once he was robbed, he was now extremely poor, and his eyes lit up when he heard about the opportunity to make money.

"How to make money?"

Zhao Xu has no doubts about Shen An's earning power.

"Ahem, my lord..."

Wang Chongnian behind him couldn't stand it anymore, so he coughed a few times, trying to remind him to pay attention to his moral integrity.

You are the prince, the future prince, can we have some moral integrity?

His eyes light up when he hears money. Isn't it embarrassing if word spreads about it?

Zhao Xu glanced at him, and Wang Chongnian bowed and stepped back.

"This is simple."

Shen An looked like an expert and said, "Just wait."

He left the imperial city and went to Izumo Temple along the way.

From a distance, you can see a wisp of green smoke rising slowly. There is no wind today, and the green smoke looks extremely straight.

Several people watched this scene and were amazed.

"This green smoke... is the Taoist people in Izumo Temple who are refining elixirs! They are probably practicing, so the green smoke is emitting."

"People say that smoke is coming out of ancestral graves, but it is coming out of Izumo Temple. Do you think this is enlightenment?"

"That's for sure! Taoist Shehui there is the best among the Taoist priests in Bianliang. Sheqing is not bad either, but his eyes look so fast that it makes people feel cold in the back."

"Yeah, like...a fox."

A man closed his eyes and sucked it hard, and praised: "This smells good. If you smell it more every day, I think you can live ten more years."

"yes!"

Shen An sniffed and smelled something pungent.

Coking coal is burned, so the smoke is green, but the smell is also a bit pungent!

How come it smells good?

The green smoke continued to pollute the sky in Bianliang. The instigator, Shen An, did not feel any guilt at all and entered the Izumo Temple all the way.

"Wait for the edict."

"Can I eat it after waiting for the imperial edict?"

"Taizhao looks so heroic today. This is a good thing!"

"..."

Izumo-kan has changed.

These Taoists have all become engineers, and they follow She Hui in refining elixirs every day... no, refining steel.

Their faces are reddish, which is caused by the high temperature.

The clothes on their bodies have also become the thickest material, and there are many holes, which were caused by the high-temperature slag that was splashed out...

But they are still full of energy, and their original belly has disappeared, and it is estimated that they are all muscles under their clothes.

Is this considered a good deed?

Shen An's heart was filled with compassion. She Qing came in front of him and smiled from afar: "I woke up this morning and heard the chirping of birds. At that moment, my heart was filled with emptiness. I felt that my Taoist conduct, which was so far behind, was actually there. The sign of consummation is that Taoist brother is here!"

Damn it!

Shen An thought that others could achieve perfection, and the cunning She Qing would probably continue to wallow in the world.

"Is the Dao accomplished?" Shen An said with a smile: "Is it possible to be invulnerable? If it is possible, let someone chop it with a few knives first."

"Brother Taoist is joking." She Qing laughed dryly and said, "Brother Taoist is here for Liuli?"

"That's not glass! Remember, it's called glass, otherwise others will think of it as low-end goods like colored glaze, which can't be sold at a high price!"

"Yes, yes, brother Tao is smart."

She Qing couldn't help but feel hot all over when she thought of the glass she saw.

"Brother Dao, that thing is a treasure!"

This is not a pure monk!

Shen An said seriously: "You must be less greedy, otherwise when will you be able to achieve greatness? When will you be able to ascend in the daytime?"

"Yes, thank you for the advice, Brother Dao."

She Qing felt that her face was worse than Shen An's, so she was a little frustrated.

The temperature in front of the steel-making furnace was very high. Several Taoist priests were talking in their calf-nosed trousers. She Hui was talking to himself beside them.

"...The temperature is still a little bad, I have to think of a way..."

This is the expert!

Shen An was moved and said, "Don't rush this matter, take your time."

She Hui opened her eyes and saw that he was coming, so she said: "Brother Tao gave Pindao this road, but this road is extremely interesting. The temperature, the amount and type of additives...these changes can change a little bit." It can make steel change and make people addicted to it and unable to extricate themselves.”

The man was completely entranced. Shen An thinks this is a good thing, at least better than his original idea of ​​elixirs.

"Brother Taoist, come and see..."

She Hui took Shen An and told her about her recent discoveries. In one sentence, Brother Tao, your investment is truly worth it! Don’t be reluctant and continue to invest more.

The expenses here are linked to Anxiang. Every month, Anxiang is responsible for auditing the accounts and allocating funds. It is said that Wang Tiande will suffer from insomnia every time he looks at it and feels that this is a bottomless pit.

"What about...glass?"

After all, Shen An is still a common person, and what he cares about most is money.

"Glass?"

She Hui's enthusiasm dissipated and he said listlessly: "Those things are of no use, are they?"

Your sister!

Shen An feels that there are many things to worry about in the future, the most important of which is to guide the research direction, otherwise She Hui will regard making money as a piece of paper to wipe his butt and wipe it away.

The two of them arrived at the edge of a furnace in the back. It was completely different from the bustle of the steel furnace in front. The place seemed particularly deserted.

"Right inside."

She Hui opened the door and Shen An stepped in.

Glass!

There are several tables placed inside, with several large pieces of glass stacked on them.

My money!

She Hui observed him from the side and saw that his expression was normal and he was not surprised at all by the glass, so he couldn't help but admire him secretly.

"When She Qing saw the glass, she almost screamed. Later, she was punished by Pindao to practice behind closed doors for five days. But Taoist brother turned a blind eye, and She Hui admired her."

She Hui bowed his head and Shen An said calmly: "External objects are worthless to a certain value, and I can't even say that I am tempted. I just think that this object can benefit the country and the people, so I pay more attention to it."

Of course he wouldn't be tempted, because in his previous life, glass was a trashy thing, and throwing it on the street would only get scolded.

But it's different now. When this transparent glass comes out, it reminds people of expensive crystal...

Shen An picked up a piece of glass, looked into the void, and praised: "The transparency is good, it can be used."

She Hui was musing again, probably thinking about his own experiments.

Such an expert who regards money as dirt is a treasure!

“Think more about what glass can do.”

Shen An thought of glasses and various supplies.

"Pindao has been very busy recently..."

She Hui obviously has no interest in money.

Shen An induced: "It costs money to do those experiments! It costs a lot to support those Taoists... If you don't make money, how can you do experiments with peace of mind?"

Seeing She Hui frowning and thinking about this, Shen An smiled and said, "Come here, take all the glass away."

All the way back home, Shen An asked people to carefully move the glass into the house.

Huahua ran after Shen An, while Guoguo looked curiously with his green hair, reaching out to touch the glass from time to time.

Yang Zhuoxue was supported by Zhao Wuwu and stood outside. Seeing Shen An's triumphant look, she asked: "Officer, what is this?"

Shen An shook his head, "Just wait, I promise to surprise you!"

Then the carpenter came, and Shen An explained some dimensions and specifications, and then he cut the glass with a diamond knife.

Measure the size, draw traces, press with a long ruler...squeeze hard, and then again...

Shen An put the scratched glass up to the edge of the table, then held one end and gently tilted it down, and a piece of glass was neatly broken.

"How many years, how many years!"

Shen An recalled the scenes of glassmakers wandering around cutting glass when he was a child, and couldn't help but feel a little sad.

The windows have been remodeled and enlarged.

The glass is installed and the edges are held down with thin wooden strips...

"Put it on!"

Shen An clapped his hands, feeling that he had completed a handiwork from his childhood.

At that time, glassmakers would throw away their glass knives when they were no longer useful. Shen An once got one and used scrap glass to cut it at home, and had a great time playing with it.

But beside him, Yang Zhuoxue was dumbfounded.

"Official... this is... this is crystal, right?" Yang Zhuoxue grabbed his hand and said nervously: "It's too extravagant, official, you will be impeached... I have never heard of anyone being like this. Too extravagant."

Large pieces of crystal are hard to come by, and no one would be willing to use them to make windows. That would be a waste of natural resources.

"Uh!" Shen An didn't expect his wife to think of crystal, but this is good news, "This is glass, not crystal."

"What is glass?"

"It's good if you understand it as Liuli."

Yang Zhuoxue still didn't believe it. When she saw that the window was installed, but the craftsman refused to step back, she asked, "But isn't it done well?"

The craftsman turned around and exclaimed: "Dai Zhao is a treasure!"

Shen An was originally happy, but when he heard this, he felt it was strange, so he said, "How much do you think it is worth?"

The craftsman looked back and said, "I can't say for sure. Anyway, a villain will never be able to afford it in his lifetime."

Shen Anxin said with satisfaction: "There are still many places in the house where the windows need to be changed, so take him there honestly."

"Brother, it's so bright!"

Guoguo rushed in first and said happily: "No need to light candles."

If there were no glass windows, and the door would be closed because of the cold, the light in the room would be too dim to read or study.

Shen An helped Yang Zhuoxue walk in.

Light passed through the glass window and illuminated a large area.

"It's so beautiful!"

Yang Zhuoxue said happily: "It would be really happy if I could read and make clothes under the window."

Shen An said nonchalantly: "We will use this at home from now on, first here, then Guo Guo over there... and install it in the study..."

Yang Zhuoxue said nervously: "Official, I need more money."

When she thought about it, this thing was probably worth about the same as crystal, so how could she be willing to turn it into a window.

"It's worthless! This thing was made by Izumo-Kan, and it's all in our family. I'll ask She Hui to get some more and exchange them for money. Madam, our family has become rich..."

Shen An whispered to her, UU Reading www.uｕkanshu.net Yang Zhuoxue said in disbelief: "Guanren, is it true?"

"certainly."

The servants were a little curious, but felt that this thing should not be used by themselves.

“Install it in every place in the house where people live.”

Shen An's generosity exceeded everyone's expectations. Zhuang Laoshi wiped his eyes and said, "Mr. Lang, this treasure is not meant for a villain, don't you dare!"

"If you say you dare, then you dare."

Shen An didn't want to reveal the value of the glass and immediately received the loyalty bonus.

Even Zhao Wuwu showed some admiration and felt that this husband was really great and very grand.

She secretly glanced at Shen An and suddenly realized that this husband was very handsome...
