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

Chapter 489 Lin Xuan took out the steel tiles, shocking Mo You!

"This thing is called steel tile, and it can replace tiles to cover the house."

“Not only is it strong and sturdy, it’s also cheaper than tiles.”

"Even ordinary people can afford it."

Lin Xuan looked at Mo You and said the name of Gang Wa.

Mo You was stunned for a moment when he heard Lin Xuan's words. After a while, he reacted and said:

"This material is indeed much stronger than tiles."

"But this thing is only the size of a piece of paper. If you want to cover the roof completely, you will need a lot of steel tiles."

Mo You looked at the steel tile in his hand and expressed his thoughts.

He had just personally tested the hardness of the steel tiles.

Tiles are indeed not as strong as steel tiles, but steel tiles are only the size of a piece of paper.

It is indeed not very convenient to lay it on the roof.

Lin Xuan smiled when he heard Mo You's words and said, "Master Mo, the steel tile you saw in your hand is a sample."

“Depending on the size of the roof of the house, the steel tiles can also be made larger.”

“With a few steel tiles, you can put the roof on the house.”

Lin Xuan looked at Mo You and explained Mo You's doubts.

"Steel tiles can actually get bigger?"

Mo You stood up after hearing Lin Xuan's words, with a hint of surprise on his face.

He originally thought that the steel tiles were only the size of a piece of paper, but he didn't expect that they could grow bigger.

If you can really use a few steel tiles, just cover the roof with them.

Such steel tiles are indeed incomparable to tiles.

Mo You frowned and looked at Lin Xuan and said, "Mr. just now said."

"The price of steel tiles is even cheaper than that of tiles. With such excellent steel tiles, are you kidding me when you say they are cheap?"

When Lin Xuan heard what Mo You said, he took out a piece of paper covered with handwriting and placed it in front of Mo You:
"Written on this piece of paper are the materials and processes needed to make steel tiles."

"Master Mo, just take a look and you will know whether what I said is true or a joke."

Mo You heard Lin Xuan's words and picked up the paper in front of him.

Looking at the materials written on the paper, Mo You was very surprised.

The Mohists were good at mechanical engineering, which required the use of many kinds of materials.

Mo You is very knowledgeable about materials and their prices. The materials written on this piece of paper are all common and common materials.

These materials are very cheap, and the cost of making steel tiles is indeed not high.

"After reading the contents of this paper, Mo You now completely believes what you said, sir."

“If you want to cover the roof tightly, you need a lot of tiles.”

"The total price of these tiles is indeed much more expensive than steel tiles."

"With steel tiles, the people of Daqin no longer have to use expensive tiles."

Mo You said this with a smile on his face.

When Lin Xuan heard that Mo You believed in him, he said, "I came to the Mo family today to see the head of the Mo family."

"I just want to hand over the task of making steel tiles to the Mo family. I believe that the Mo family can make steel tiles with low prices and good quality."

Lin Xuan looked at Mo You and told him the purpose of his visit.

Mo You nodded slightly when he heard Lin Xuan's words, even if Lin Xuan didn't mention it.

When Lin Xuan took out the steel tiles, Mo You also understood.

"Don't worry, sir. I'll leave the making of the steel tiles to the Mo family."

"The Mohists will definitely make good steel tiles and live up to your expectations."

"But now that the steel tiles are made, have you thought about how to sell them?"

"Once steel tiles appear in the cities of Daqin, the tile business will plummet."

"Those tile merchants cannot accept this result. If they knew you were the one behind this, they would definitely cause trouble for you."

Mo You looked at Lin Xuan and expressed his thoughts.

The appearance of steel tiles is to grab the tile business, and what they are grabbing is money.

This is unacceptable to businessmen. Mohism is now highly valued by His Majesty, so there is no problem with security.

What's more, the Mohist School made the tiles only after listening to Lin Xuan's words.

Lin Xuan is the real danger. Once Lin Xuan sends people to open a shop to sell steel tiles, the shop will find it difficult to survive.

Hearing Mo You's words, Lin Xuan showed a hint of smile on his face, "Master Mo, don't worry about this."

"Since I am here, let Master Mo make the steel tiles."

"Of course there is a way to sell steel tiles smoothly in the cities of Daqin."

Mo You nodded slightly when he heard Lin Xuan's words, since Lin Xuan was so confident.

Mo You didn't know what to say anymore. What he had to do now was to arrange for his tribesmen to make the steel tiles.

Outside Fusu’s residence in Xianyang City!

Fusu got off the carriage and walked into the mansion where he was greeted by the housekeeper.

"The teacher is in the garden?"

Fusu looked at the butler and asked.

"The gentleman has just returned to the mansion and is in the garden."

When the butler heard Fusu's words, he quickly responded.

"Oh?"

When Fusu heard the housekeeper say that his teacher had gone out before, he felt a little confused.

Fusu strode towards the garden, and the butler stopped and did not follow him.

When Fusu entered the garden, he saw his teacher drinking wine and looking at the beautiful scenery.

"Teacher, the students are back!"

Fusu came to Lin Xuan and bowed.

"Master, you are back? Please take a seat!"

When Lin Xuan heard Fusu's words, a smile appeared on his face, and he filled the wine jar in front of Fusu with wine.

Fusu sat down and drank the wine that his teacher Lin Xuan poured for him.

"I just met the butler, and he said that the teacher had just returned to the mansion not long ago."

Lin Xuan smiled when he heard Fusu's words. He knew that Fusu was worried about his safety.

"Don't worry, sir. I didn't leave Xianyang City. I just went to the Mo family and met with the head of the Mo family, Mo You."

Lin Xuan looked at Fusu with a smile on his face.

When Fusu heard that his teacher had gone to Mohism, he felt relieved.

He knew that his teacher was a martial arts expert, but Fusu was still worried about his teacher's safety.

"Since you have come to the garden, I have a profitable business here. Are you interested?"

"If you are interested, let's go with the old rules and split it in half."

Lin Xuan looked at Fusu and told him his story.

Fusu was surprised when he heard his teacher's words, but he quickly reacted and said with a smile:
"If your business needs students, please just ask."

"As for the money we earn, it's all from your own students, the teacher."

Fusu looked at his teacher and expressed his thoughts.

In Fusu's opinion, it is his duty to support his teacher.

The teacher had taken good care of him in the previous business transactions, and this time Fusu thought it would be better to let the teacher be the only one to make the profit.

Lin Xuan smiled when he heard Fusu's words and said, "You will need money a lot in the future."

"This time, I'll listen to the teacher and give each of us half of the profit."

"If you don't agree, the teacher will leave Xianyang City and live in seclusion while the young master is away."

"I promised you, teacher, that you must not live in seclusion. I cannot live without you."

When Fusu heard what his teacher said, his face changed drastically. He was really worried that his teacher would go into seclusion.

Daqin is so vast that it is very difficult to find a person who lives in seclusion.

What's more, he is such an excellent teacher. If the teacher had lived in seclusion in Fusu, I believe no matter how many people I sent out, they would not be able to find him.

Lin Xuan smiled when he heard Fusu's words. There was a reason why he and Fusu wanted to share half each.
