Chapter 92 Good news

To produce glass, this heating equipment must be solved, otherwise it will be empty talk. Under the current conditions, using a porcelain crucible is the only choice. The heat resistance of the porcelain crucible is not as good as that of the quartz crucible, and the quartz crucible is not as good as the graphite crucible. The porcelain crucible is the worst among the three types of crucibles.

Graphite crucibles have the best heat resistance, but Chen Wanrong has not discovered graphite yet and cannot be used to produce graphite crucibles. The production conditions of porcelain crucibles are ready-made, but their heat resistance is worth worrying.

Zheng Qingxin suddenly raised it and asked, "Shopkeeper Yuan, is there really no way?"

Yuan Tiancheng was stunned for a moment and then said, "I can only say that I can do my best. If I cannot meet Manager Chen's request, please forgive me."

I believe he will do what he says and do his best. Under the current circumstances, this is the only way. Chen Wanrong nodded and encouraged him: "Shopkeeper Yuan's skills are extraordinary and he can surprise people."

"Shopkeeper Chen has been awarded too much, Yuan just does his best." Yuan Tiancheng shook his head and was humble.

Chen Wanrong really missed modern society, with complete equipment and tools. If you want to launch a glass project, you can only spend money. In the Tang Dynasty, you can’t buy equipment even if you have money, so you have to do everything yourself. This chemical work is extremely difficult.

"Shopkeeper Yuan, in addition to this, I also want to ask you to make some bricks for me." Chen Wanrong picked up the ink ingot and drew it on the paper, and in just a few efforts, he drew the brick shape.

Yuan Tiancheng frowned and asked, "Shopkeeper Chen, what do you want this brick to be made?" There are bricks for repairing houses on the market. If you want to build a house, just buy them directly, and there is no need to build them.

Zheng Qing was also curious about this question, blinking her eyes and aiming at Chen Wanrong.

Chen Wanrong explained: "I want this brick to make a stove. This stove must be very resistant to burning, so I can only use this brick."

There is a special furnace during the production of glass, which is made of refractory materials. If it is treated like a cooking stove, it is estimated that the temperature will not reach and it will be deformed long ago. The only refractory materials nowadays are porcelain, which Chen Wanrong has to do.

In Zheng Qing and Yuan Tiancheng's impression, there was no requirement for the stove, as long as the rice could be cooked, it would be done. It was very strange, but after listening to Chen Wanrong's explanation, he realized it.

Now I’m just doing some small experiments. There is a stove, which is completely enough. When the conditions are met, it’s not too late to use refractory materials to make a furnace.

"Shopkeeper Yuan, after the preparation is done, please give me some clay so I can use it to build a stove." Chen Wanrong had a lot of requests.

Clay is the main raw material for making porcelain. Yuan Tiancheng’s kiln has not much of anything. There is only a lot of clay, so there is no hole in it. "Don’t worry, shopkeeper Chen, it must, certain!"

Next, Chen Wanrong drew a few more pictures and asked Yuan Tiancheng to help with the fire, and then he said goodbye and left.

"Brother Chen, where are we going? Go back to make sulfuric acid?" As soon as he left the kiln, Zheng Qing looked at Chen Wanrong and asked, his eyes full of expectation.

Chen Wanrong understood what she meant. It was rare for the two of them to come out and stroll around. She was happy and didn't want to go back. She had to stroll around again. It was a man's responsibility to go shopping with his girlfriend. Chen Wanrong often played this role in another time and space, and smiled and said, "Don't be anxious for sulfuric acid, let's go somewhere else first. My mother said, I want to take good care of you, and I will take care of you now." In the end, this was already a joke.

Zheng Qing couldn't hear the affection in her words, and said with a smile: "Brother Chen, I'll listen to you." She was still so cute and charming, and let Chen Wanrong's decisions.

Shopping is fake, it is real to pass through the world of two people, and there is no clear purpose. The two walked side by side on the street, and Zheng Qing glanced at Chen Wanrong from time to time, with a strange glory on her pretty face, which was particularly happy.

After walking for a while, Chen Wanrong felt a little tired and his feet were a little sore, but Zheng Qing was excited and staring at her eyes, as if she was visiting Ning County for the first time, not a native of Ning County. Women have a special love for shopping, and Chen Wanrong regrets it. If he had known this, why would he have to go shopping? It would be better to go back and do sulfuric acid. The world of the two is both warm and not tiring. How great is it.

"Brother Chen, are you tired? Otherwise, let's go back." Zheng Qing had good eyesight and had already discovered Chen Wanrong's pain.

This proposal was really great, but Chen Wanrong couldn't accept it: "Don't talk nonsense. You are not tired, can I be tired? After all, I am a man." He was so confident that he was complaining in his heart.

At this time, no matter how hard or tired you are, you have to endure it. This is the experience that Chen Wanrong summarized in another world. There is a common experience of men who have experienced the experience of walking around the street with his girlfriend, but there is nothing we can do about it.

Zheng Qing was in high spirits and didn't know how to tell her. She smiled at Chen Wanrong, held her skirt and ran forward, as if she was wearing a butterfly, and her delicate body exuded endless vitality. If Chen Wanrong admitted that she was too tired, she would not be able to see the beauty's happy face.

There was a shop in front of it, with a big word "Yuan" hanging at the door. Chen Wanrong came to Ning County and was full of affairs. He really didn't have much time to visit Ning County. He was not very familiar with it. When he saw the word "Yuan", he was surprised: "What kind of shop is this?"

Zheng Qing smiled and replied: "This is a bronze mirror shop. Isn't it fate to meet in the mirror?"

Looking at yourself in the mirror alone is a self-pity for the shadow, a very lonely thing, which makes people sad and also called fate. This is something that even eight poles cannot beat. These businessmen really have something to say, but bad things become good things as soon as they say them.

"Brother Chen, this is the largest bronze mirror shop in Ning County. The bronze mirrors here are many styles and exquisitely made, and are very popular." Zheng Qing continued to introduce.

There were people coming and going in front of the shop, and it was very lively. Zheng Qing was right. Chen Wanrong smiled and said, "Go and take a look." This kind of lively nature is something to be added.

Zheng Qing responded and trotted over, and Chen Wanrong hurriedly followed. When he arrived at the shop, Chen Wanrong looked at the counter. There were all kinds of bronze mirrors, four gods and twelve zodiac mirrors, auspicious beast mirrors, grape mirrors, flower and bird mirrors, auspicious flower mirrors, immortals and figures story mirrors, dragon mirrors, and gossip mirrors, all kinds of them were placed on the shelves.

As Zheng Qing said, the mirrors in this mirror shop are very exquisitely made with many styles and colors, which makes Chen Wanrong dazzled. He picked up a mirror and the mirror was smooth. When he looked at it, he saw himself clearly appearing in the mirror, which was not much different from modern glass. In the Tang Dynasty, it was rare to have such a high level. Chen Wanrong was convinced from the bottom of his heart and admired the wisdom of our ancestors.

After turning over, I saw some honeysuckle decorations on the back with paint, which were decorated very cleverly, making a magical beast look like a roaring sound of the neck, which was adorable. Chen Wanrong couldn't help but start to move on the back of the mirror, and was really reluctant to let go.

The bronze mirrors of the Tang Dynasty were not only daily cosmetics, but also high-quality crafts. The workmanship was extremely exquisite, the patterns and styles were varied, which made people dizzy.

Zheng Qing held a grape mirror of auspicious beast and kept playing with it, and loved it very much. Chen Wanrong asked, "How much does this cost?"

"Two secrets!" The guy stretched out his two fingers.

A bronze mirror worth two silos is so scary. This is the income of Chen Laoshi's family for more than half a year. Chen Wanrong thought it was too scammed.

Zheng Qing smiled and said, "Brother Chen, it's not expensive. Look, they all use silver jewelry. This is the popular pattern now, auspicious beast grape mirror."

There were many bronze mirrors in the Tang Dynasty, and they were popular in different periods. Before Emperor Gaozong of Tang Dynasty, the four gods and twelve zodiac mirrors were mainly popular, among which the four gods and twelve zodiac mirrors, the auspicious beast inscription mirrors, the auspicious beast flower and plant mirrors, and the treasure flower inscription mirrors inscription mirrors were the most popular. In this period, the bronze mirrors were mainly round mirrors, and the patterns mainly highlighted the supernatural auspicious beasts.

From the beginning of Kaiyuan of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty, grape mirrors were popular, including grape mirrors, grape vine branches, auspicious beasts, phoenix birds, grape mirrors, diamond-shaped treasure-shaped flower mirrors, flower-shaped flower mirrors, flower-shaped branch mirrors, and dragon mirrors, which are popular among the most round and diamond-shaped mirrors, and the theme patterns are mainly flowers and birds, and there are also auspicious beast decorations.

From the Tianbao period of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang to the Dezong of Tang Dynasty, flower and bird mirrors were mainly flower and bird mirrors. The bird mirrors in the flower and bird mirrors, the sunflower-shaped treasure-shaped flower mirrors in the auspicious flower mirrors, the moon palace mirrors, the flying fairy mirrors, and the flying frost mirrors in the story mirrors of the gods and figures. The round and sunflower-shaped mirrors are the most common.

From the end of the Tang Dynasty to the end of the Tang Dynasty, the main popular styles were flower branch mirrors, flower leaf mirrors, Bagua mirrors, and gold and silver flat mirrors. The most interesting one was the mother-of-pearl mirror, which was made of paint on the back, and also polished and carved patterns, which was loved by people of the times.

The era in which Chen Wanrong lived was a period when grape mirrors became popular. Zheng Qing played with grape mirrors and couldn't let go of them.

He took out a ingot of silver and put it on the counter. Chen Wanrong said, "I want it."

Zheng Qing was stunned and asked, "Brother Chen, what are you buying this?"

Chen Wanrong whispered in her ear: "I bought it for you. You have helped me so much, and I haven't given you a little thank you yet."

Zheng Qing is a man of Linglong, obedient. Although Chen Wanrong's words are polite, it means that this is the first time he has given you a gift. Zheng Qing has many bronze mirrors at home, but this is the first time his sweetheart has given her, so it is extremely precious. He nodded gently: "Brother Chen, thank you!" His eyebrows stretched out, filled with joy.

The guy found change, and Chen Wanrong and Zheng Qing left the mirror shop. Zheng Qing held the bronze mirror tightly with her white jade-like little hands, as if an ordinary bronze mirror was a treasure, for fear of losing it.

Chen Wanrong could understand her mood and joked: "Qing, if you think it's too little, I'll buy a few more. When you put it at home, when you look in the mirror, a handsome young man suddenly came, that's Brother Chen, I. Let's take a look together, that would be great!"

When dressing in the mirror, having a lover as a companion, staged a warm story of "Zhang Chang's thrush" which is indeed a fascinating good thing. Although it was a joke, it made Zheng Qing laugh and full of joy. He said coquettishly: "Brother Chen, you are just talking nonsense." He held his skirt and hit the ground with his toes, flying away happily like a dragonfly in water.

After shopping here, Zheng Qing was satisfied and then went home. She was playing with the bronze mirror on the way until she was almost home. She put away the bronze mirror and walked forward with Chen Wanrong.

Before he reached the door, he saw Xiao Shangrong standing by the door, stretching his neck long and looking around. When he saw Chen Wanrong and Zheng Qing, he ran over and complained from afar: "Brother, where have you been? You are just back now."

It was obvious that something must be wrong, Chen Wanrong asked, "What's the matter?"

"What else can I do? Mr. Zheng is here. I'll wait for you for a long time." Xiao Shangrong answered a little unhappy.

When Zheng Qing heard this, she was extremely happy and shouted in surprise: "Dad!" She ran away quickly.

This is not the first time Zheng Jianqiu has been here, and it’s okay to wait, Chen Wanrong doesn’t care. Xiao Shangrong just listens to him and says, “Mrs. Zheng and Brother Zheng are here.”

The brother Zheng he mentioned should be Zheng Wanru. The family of three came, and Zheng Qing, and the whole family was here, so this matter was a big deal. Chen Wanrong, the owner, was not at home and asked the guests to wait. No wonder Xiao Shangrong was so anxious and complained.

"Mom, brother is here too?" Zheng Qing was a little surprised, and said something without thinking and ran faster.

Chen Wanrong didn't care about anything, so he hurriedly followed and rushed into the yard. As soon as he saw Zheng Jianqiu and his wife, and Zheng Wanru, accompanied by Chen Laoshi and his wife, stood in the yard, pointing and talking and laughing, Zheng Jianqiu smiled.

"Mom!" Zheng Qing shouted, threw herself into Zheng Zhou's arms, and said coquettishly: "Mom, you don't say anything when you come back, so my daughter can go and pick you up."

Zheng Zhou held Zheng Qing's cheek, smiled and complained: "You girl, you used to go to Chang'an to help your mother clear the tent at the beginning of the month, but you didn't come this time. Let's see how you punished you? Have you forgotten your mother?" Her eyes couldn't help but look at Chen Wanrong, which meant that "I have a sweetheart and even my mother forgot."

"Mom, don't talk nonsense? I haven't had time yet! I was going to go to Chang'an in two days, but I didn't expect you to come back." Zheng Qing didn't understand, her pretty face turned red all of a sudden, and she hung on Zheng Zhou's arm, and became coquettish.

Zheng Zhou couldn't bear it even if he said a word that made Zheng Qing so embarrassed. He stroked Zheng Qing's hair lovingly: "Girl, I'm talking so much, don't take it seriously."

Chen Wanrong stepped forward and greeted him, "I have met Mr. Zheng."

Zheng Jianqiu smiled and replied, "Good nephew is exempt from gifts, no gifts!"

In the past, when I met, I was too old, and I kept calling you a nephew for the first time. Chen Wanrong felt a little strange. Zheng Jianqiu explained: "Does my nephew find it strange? I am a generation older than you. If I don't call you a nephew, what else can I call you?"

This sentence sounds like a seniority on the surface, but in fact there is another mystery. When he spoke, he looked at Zheng Qing and couldn't understand the meaning. Chen Wanrong understood what he meant and said in a very cooperative manner: "What uncle said is very true. My nephew has seen his uncle!"

Zheng Jianqiu was very satisfied with Chen Wanrong's cleverness, and what made him even more happy was that Chen Wanrong spoke like this was answering that his good things were about to happen.

Every month at the beginning of the month, Zheng Qing would go to Chang'an to help clear the accounts. This time she didn't go, but was in the Chen family. Naturally, their relationship had improved greatly, otherwise how could they do this?

Chen Wanrong clasped his fists and said, "I have seen my aunt! My aunt has arrived, but my nephew has never welcomed me. I would like to forgive me."

Zheng Zhou hurriedly stopped him and said, "The nephew is spared. The nephew is so serious. I have not come back since I asked the nephew to guard the old house. This time I come back, I will come over and take a look. I'm not here to do your work."

Is it really a visit to the old house? I'm afraid it's the intention of the drunkard. It's the original intention to examine what the future son-in-law does.

Chen Wanrong was obedient and listened to her implication. He didn't point it out, and smiled and said, "It's rare for the first time for my aunt to come. I should welcome my aunt. If you offend me, please forgive me!"

Zheng Wanru stepped forward to meet and said, "I have met Brother Chen. I have been away from Chang'an and haven't seen each other for many days. Brother Chen is so happy, it seems to be very comforting."

He used to be called Mr. Chen, but now he calls Brother Chen, and he is closer, and the relationship is even more advanced. Chen Wanrong hurriedly replied, "I feel as if I am worried about my brother, it's okay."

After the ceremony, Chen Wanrong invited the family of four into the house and asked them to sit down. Just as he was about to serve them tea, Qing'e came in with tea. Zheng Qing came over like a butterfly, picked up the tea and handed it to his parents, giving Zheng Wanru a cup, Chen Wanrong a cup, and the last cup was left for himself.

Zheng Zhou grabbed Zheng Qing, his face sank, and he cried: "Girl, it's the same as his own family."

Chen Wanrong took over the conversation and replied on behalf of Zheng Qing: "What my aunt said is very true. This is your home."

Zheng Jianqiu touched his beard and laughed. Zheng Zhou glanced at Zheng Qing, with many praises in his eyes.

The Zheng family was dispatched today and gathered here. Not only did they say their intentions, Chen Wanrong also understood that it was conveying a message to him and recognizing his relationship with Zheng Qing, but it was not stated clearly.

Chen Wanrong and Zheng Qing were dating, and Zheng Jianqiu had long secretly praised her. Chen Wanrong was not surprised at all. However, when such a good thing came, Chen Wanrong was still happy. He looked at Zheng Qing and saw Yiren looking at her with a smile. She was a smart person, so there was no reason she could not understand.

Zheng Jianqiu was drinking tea: "Nephew, we are here today. First, we want to see the situation in the old house, and second, we want to clear the accounts with you."

Seeing that the old house is an excuse, and clearing the accounts is by the way. Chen Wanrong smiled and said, "Uncle, there is no hurry to clear the accounts, I will talk about them in a few days." I was really happy today, and I didn't want to clear the accounts. At this time, I was still thinking about money, and I was too sorry for pure love.

Zheng Zhou took over the conversation: "Nephew, this account must be cleared. Brothers will settle the accounts clearly. If this account is not clear, it will be difficult to do future transactions."
