Chapter 259 Achievements
In addition to the craftsmen from the Northern Wei Dynasty, there are also many workers from the Pei family in the Yaoyuchang.The steward who manages the entire workshop is also surnamed Pei, named Pei Zonggui, and is a very trusted side relative of the Pei family.Steady personality and reliable.

Yun Jiu'an counted the days, today is the ninth day of February, and she must go to Tongyi to see Wang Gong around the [-]th, but she can stay in the workshop for a few days and develop the formula as much as possible.

She asked Manager Pei to arrange a place to stay for her, and at the same time asked Lu Xiaomo to run errands, asked her to visit Yanjiuju, and told Xue Hongxiu that she would not be going there for a while.

She didn't know what Lu Xiaomo told Xue Hongxiu, but in the end Lu Xiaomo bought a lot of her new clothes and daily necessities, and moved them into her room one by one.

Dongfang Feiyi was already preparing to go to Tongyi to negotiate with Jiang's family, and left Yaoyuchang in the afternoon.

Yun Jiu'an did not waste time, and learned about the mineral deposits with those craftsmen at the workshop that day.Then I ran to Pei's porcelain kiln and asked some more about the methods of refining the raw materials she needed.

After two days of working, she felt that it is not so difficult to make glass products with practical value.

Early in the morning of the third day, she found Steward Pei and asked him to help her find arsenic ore, selenium, and potassium nitrate.

Manager Pei was at a loss for these ingredients.She had no choice but to explain to him what these raw materials were.

Arsenic ore is the raw material for making arsenic, which can be used as a clarifying agent for making glass.Selenium is a decolorizing agent. It is currently in the experimental stage. If it is the least serious, you can go to the copper smelting place to find it. The red substance left after copper smelting is it.

If the quantity is large in the future, it will naturally be replaced by potassium nitrate, which is the tip soil for making black powder.With the strength of the Pei family, it is not difficult to find someone to purify this raw material.

Then, she plunged into the trial room.

In her previous life, as far as she knew, the formation of glass has a long history, and the most authoritative formation comes from an interesting description: very early on, a caravan took a break when passing through the desert, and took dry desert plants to make a fire for cooking and to keep out the cold at night .Before leaving on the second day, people accidentally discovered in the sand that the treasures buried in the sand the night before were all crystal clear and shiny treasures, and everyone was ecstatic.These treasures are glass, which is also known as medicine jade in Daqing.

In the West, people often say that glass is God's best gift to mankind.Glass has brought the joy of life and inspiration to the world. Artists use it to be crystal clear, cold, strong and have the characteristics of refraction and reflection. Effect.

The world's first glass factory was established in Egypt a long time ago. At that time, clay was used as the inner core, and then hot glass solution was poured on the inner core to make a container.This technique is known as the sand core method.

Later, with people's continuous in-depth research, the glass inflation method technology appeared, that is, the blowing method.

But now she wants to make more than practical flat glass, use it as window glass.Would rather make glass syringes for injections.I'm afraid this thing will use the blowing method.

Although she has the experience of predecessors in her heart, after all, she has never actually operated it.To combine the theoretical knowledge she has mastered with practice, or to make this epoch-making thing in ancient times with such low productivity, no matter how difficult it is, it will require her to pay countless efforts. Experimentation can achieve the effect she wants.

Speaking of it, she is also a workaholic.When you have a goal, you forget about all mundane things, and concentrate on refining experiments with the experienced craftsmen of the Northern Wei Dynasty in the trial room, almost endlessly.

Every time her ingredients come out, those craftsmen will immediately carry out refining, annealing, shaping and so on.The process was cumbersome, but all the people were full of interest without any impatience.

During breaks, she also discusses blowing with experienced artisans.Those craftsmen were also ingenious, and after listening to her description, they started making molds.

Every time Lu Xiaomo couldn't stand it and entered the trial room, she would only see her disheveled and disregarding her appearance stirring up the strange dust there, and even when she was asked to eat, she would barely take a few bites perfunctorily, and she was absent-minded even when talking. , Still writing and drawing on paper with a pen, I don’t know what I’m calculating.

Seeing that she, a little girl, put her whole body and soul into it, she was also eloquent when talking about Yaoyu, and those craftsmen were completely convinced by her.

Even Lu Jingxuan who came over occasionally had to look at her differently.

Dongfang Feiyi came over every few days, and was amazed to see the refined finished product that exceeded expectations.I was really grateful to her in my heart, so I drew up a contract on the spot, and in the future, I would give her [-]% of the [-]% that belonged to her.

Yun Jiu'an didn't refuse, so he accepted it with a smile.

Seeing her working hard, Lu Xiaomo simply stayed with her in the trial room, almost inseparable.Several times, she advised her to go to rest first, but she turned a deaf ear to it, still biting the tip of her pen and thinking hard.

Even though she had something to say to her, she didn't dare to speak, for fear of disturbing her, so she could only force her to eat and sleep on time.

When the first piece of transparent and clear flat glass was developed and mounted on the frame by the master craftsman, it was already twelve days later.

Yun Jiu'an, who had almost exhausted all his energy, had already fallen asleep on the chair before he had time to appreciate it carefully.

When she woke up, it was already evening.

What I saw when I opened my eyes was a gauze curtain with a green mantle and a bed of dragons and phoenixes carved in the sky.

This is a room she is not familiar with.

The sun has set and night has fallen.

The room looked a little dark.

She pushed away the brocade quilt, and Fang found that the clothes on her body had also been replaced with a comfortable cotton white jacket.

She put on her shoes and opened the door, only to see the peach blossoms in the courtyard in full bloom, fragrant and fragrant.

There were lights on in the room in the west wing, and voices could be faintly heard from inside.

Not knowing where she was, she walked over lightly.

"...My lord, a lot of war horses in the Northwest have been killed by frostbite this winter, but there is also a plague of rats. In addition to the shortage of food and grass, the court has turned a blind eye to it. I am afraid that these gaps will have to be filled by the Jiang family..."

"Right now, Xichu doesn't know the truth about Longxi. Once he knows, something big might happen due to their eagerness to move in the past few years..."

"...The old prince is doing his best to strengthen military discipline and regulations, so as not to disturb the people. But after all, he is getting old, and the generals who haven't fought for many years are gradually lax and complaining. If the morale of the army fluctuates, some internal divisions may appear..."

Yun Jiu'an hadn't heard a few words when footsteps came from behind him. Looking back, it was Xue Hongxiu.

Hastily called: "Sister Hongxiu."

The voices in the room stopped.

Xue Hongxiu held a tray in his hand, on which were several plates of porridge and side dishes.

She smiled and said: "Miss Yun woke up and slept for two days and two nights. I guess you should be hungry. Let's have some food first."

She led her to the bedroom.

The door of the room opened with a voice, but it was Song Yanning in a white shirt.

Not seen for many days, Si is still clear and dazzling, but she is sad.

As if she hadn't seen him, she followed Xue Hongxiu into the house.

Xue Hongxiu put the dishes on the table, carefully lit the candles everywhere, and then whispered in her ear: "Miss Yun, talk to your lord carefully, you are not a person who likes to use your temper, are you?"

After saying that, he went out.
