Da Qin: From a disciple of Fusu to a generation of imperial masters

Chapter 488 Lin Xuan goes to the Mo family and meets Mo You!
Mo You's eyes lit up when he heard his clansmen's words, and Lin Xuan came to their Mo family's mansion.

"Quick, go with me to greet Mr. Lin Xuan."

Mo You said as he walked out of the mansion.

In Mo You's opinion, Lin Xuan's coming at this time must be something big.

Mo You and his clansmen came to the outside of the mansion and saw Lin Xuan standing next to the carriage.

"Mr. Lin Xuan!"

Mo You looked at Lin Xuan bowing and the people who came with Mo You also bowed and saluted.

"Master Mo, you are too polite!"

Lin Xuan looked at Mo You with a smile on his face and saluted with his fists.

"Mr. Lin Xuan, please come in!"

Mo You stood up, looked at Lin Xuan and made a please gesture.

Lin Xuan did not refuse and walked into the mansion with Mo You.

The gate of the mansion slowly closed to prevent outsiders from accidentally entering the Mo family.

Lin Xuan looked around and saw many members of the Mo family making things in the yard.

"Master Mo, these people of yours seem to be very happy."

"Seeing this situation, I want to stay in your mansion for a few days."

Lin Xuan looked at Mo You and made a joke.

Mo You smiled when he heard Lin Xuan's words and said, "I have to thank Mr. Lin Xuan for all this."

"If Mr. Lin Xuan hadn't found the Mo family, the Mo family would still be hiding in the mountains today to make things for money."

"We must also be careful of people with bad intentions targeting the Mohist School."

"Now that I and my clansmen live in this mansion, the Mo family no longer has to worry about money."

"There is no need to worry about anyone causing trouble for the Mo family. The tribe members will naturally feel much better."

Mo You looked at Lin Xuan and told him the real reason.

Lin Xuan nodded slightly when he heard Mo You's words. He still remembered the first time he went to the mountains to visit the Mo family.

The Mohists were still quite vigilant at that time and had some defensive measures.

Living in the mountains is indeed inconvenient at many times.

Now the Mohist family lives in such a large mansion, which is incomparable to what they had in the mountains.

The Mohist School created many weapons and good things for the Qin Dynasty. Your Majesty and Prince Fusu value the Mohist School very much.

All the ministers in the court were aware of this, and no one would easily cause trouble for the Mohist school.

"It's only because the head of the Mo family and his clansmen are capable, otherwise the Mo family wouldn't be living the good life they have now."

Lin Xuan looked at Mo You and spoke his true feelings.

It is true that he led the Mohist school out of the mountains, and the Mohist school did indeed do well.

The Mohist school is truly unmatched in its art of creating weapons and mechanisms.

Mo You was very happy to hear Lin Xuan's praise, and looked at Lin Xuan and said, "Sir, please come this way!"

Mo You brought Lin Xuan to a secluded courtyard. There were only Mo You and Lin Xuan in the whole courtyard.

The two sat down, and Mo You looked at Lin Xuan and said, "My daughter and her clansmen went to buy some materials and are not in the mansion. Today, Mo You will talk to you, sir."

Mo You looked at Lin Xuan and told him the reason why his daughter Mo Xueer was not at home.

Lin Xuan smiled when he heard Mo You's words. He knew what Mo You was thinking.

Mo You has always wanted to marry his daughter to him. Lin Xuan looked at Mo You and said:
"It's okay. Miss Xue'er is so capable at such a young age. Master Mo is blessed."

Lin Xuan looked at Mo You and praised Mo Xueer.

Mo You smiled when he heard Lin Xuan's words. Lin Xuan was praising his daughter.

This shows that Lin Xuan is not opposed to it, which is exactly what Mo You wants to see.

Mo You did not mention his daughter again. He knew that Lin Xuan came today because he had something to tell him.

"Sir, why did you come here today? What do you want to tell Mo You?" Mo You's face turned serious and he looked at Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan smiled when he heard Mo You's words. Mo You guessed it before he said anything.

None of the heads of these schools are simple people.

"I came here today because I really have something to discuss with Master Mo."

"The Mohist school of mechanical arts is very proficient in many aspects."

"I'm sure you, Master Mo You, know the quality of the tiles on the roofs of Daqin's houses now."

Lin Xuan looked at Mo You and mentioned the tiles used on the roof of the house.

Mo You nodded slightly when he heard Lin Xuan's words, although he didn't know why Lin Xuan suddenly mentioned tiles.

Mo You pondered for a moment and said, "Although the roofs of all houses in Daqin are now made of tiles."

"But the materials and prices of tiles are different."

"Ordinary tiles are made of ordinary materials. If they are exposed to the sun or rain for a long time, they will gradually weather and break into pieces."

"Good quality tiles can withstand the sun and rain, and they are unlikely to weather."

"It is also much better than ordinary tiles in blocking cold wind."

Mo You looked at Lin Xuan and told him what he knew about the tiles.

Lin Xuan nodded slightly after hearing what Mo You said, and asked, "How about the price of tiles?"

Mo You's face became slightly serious when he heard Lin Xuan's words, "The price of tiles is not cheap."

"The houses inhabited by the people of Daqin have ordinary tiles on their roofs."

“The tiles used in other mansions are tiles of good quality.”

Mo You looked at Lin Xuan and told him the price of the tiles.

Lin Xuan nodded slightly after hearing what Mo You said, and said, "If I can make the roofs of the people's houses not afraid of being wet by rain or being exposed to the sun."

"It can also block the cold wind and is very cheap. What do you think, Master Mo?"

"This is impossible."

Mo You refuted Lin Xuan's words and said, "Although the Mo family does not make tiles."

"But I have a good understanding of the tile-making process. The materials needed to make a tile are not cheap."

"This means that the price of most common tiles is not cheap. Mr. Lin Xuan, do you want to sell tiles at a loss?"

"There are so many people and houses in Daqin, even the national treasury cannot afford so much money."

Mo You looked at Lin Xuan and expressed his thoughts.

He admired Lin Xuan very much, but he really couldn't believe what Lin Xuan said this time.

Lin Xuan looked at Mo You, who had a look of doubt on his face, and said, "What I just said about covering the house is not tiles, but this thing."

"Master Mo, please look!"

As Lin Xuan spoke, he took out a steel tile the size of a paper from his sleeve and placed it in front of Mo You.

Mo You looked at the silver wavy object in front of him with a hint of doubt on his face.

He had seen many materials about Mohist mechanical engineering, but this was the first time he had seen something so strange.

Mo You picked up the thing Lin Xuan placed in front of him and felt the weight.

It’s not too heavy. Mo You knocked the thing in his hand a few more times.

Listening to the sound, Mo You squeezed the thing in his hand.

Mo You felt it was very hard, and a hint of surprise appeared on his face.

He didn't expect the thing in his hand to be so hard. He squeezed it hard several times but it didn't deform at all.

"Mr. Lin Xuan, what is this?"

Mo You put the thing in his hand on the stone table in front of him and looked at Lin Xuan with a hint of doubt on his face.
