The prince does not fight for the heir

Chapter 37 Porcelain kiln firing glass

Fu Xuechen, who returned home, was still annoyed that she was not a man, she was just disguised as a man, otherwise, Cheng Defang, an annoying person, would definitely ask for a fight, and the fight would only relieve the hatred.As for the female body, it doesn't matter whether you win or lose the fight, as long as you participate in the fight, it is enough to destroy Qingyu.

Now I can only find a way to use commercial means to squeeze the living space of the other party's library, or even crush the other party and force it to close down. Unfortunately, the library is only owned by the Cheng family. It is a bit helpless to implicate the other members of the Cheng family, but who let them take care of it? People like Cheng Defang are not so innocent.

After calming down, Fu Xuechen showed a trace of remorse again, and became impulsive again!

He even got angry with others with the business of the bookstore, what should he do if he fails?Originally, it could be managed in a very Buddhist way, but now it’s better, and I have to spend serious energy on it. It’s really nothing to look for.

That night, Fu Xuechen went to find his mother, Mrs. Xie. On the one hand, she reached out to ask for funds, and on the other hand, she asked if there were any suitable workshops and craftsmen under her name, to see if she could make cheap glass. This is a new industry with promising prospects. The vastness must be in your own hands.

Mrs. Xie really did not disappoint her. There is a small engraving and printing workshop at the bookstore, which has a complete set of engravings of a subset of scriptures and history. In addition, there are two or three engraving craftsmen who are responsible for printing scripts, but the scale is small. Therefore, the output has never been high.

In addition, there is a porcelain kiln. The porcelain produced is not only supplied to the needs of the family, but also sold to the outside world. However, because the scale is not large, the porcelain produced is often based on the production of the main line of the Xie family, through the Xie family. The channels are sold all over the world.

"I can't give you the porcelain kiln, at least it's not time to transfer it to your name." Mrs. Xie thought that her daughter wanted the ownership of the porcelain kiln.

"Mother! What I mean is that I want the porcelain kiln to help make a batch of glass!" Fu Xuechen explained.

"What glass?" Xie was puzzled, "I've only heard of Liuli."

"Uh..." Fu Xuechen thought for a while: "Glass is a kind of colored glaze, but the manufacturing process of glass is much simpler than colored glaze."

"You can also make glass?" Mrs. Xie was surprised.

"My son just wants to try." Fu Xuechen shook his mother's arm: "Mother, let our porcelain kiln help my son make a batch of glass, okay?"

Mrs. Xie couldn't stand her daughter's coquettishness: "All right, all right, I'll let the manager of the porcelain kiln cooperate with you tomorrow."

"Thank you, mother! Let me tell you, mother, you made a lot of money this time! After a while, you will know how wise you promised me!"

Fu Xuechen left with great joy, Xie couldn't laugh or cry, but she just thought it was a child playing around and didn't take it to heart.

With glass making in mind, Fu Xuechen was absent-minded all day long.

Follow the process, accompany the sixth prince to recite texts and practice calligraphy as usual in the morning, practice riding and shooting for an hour in the afternoon, and then accompany the sixth prince to the Ministry of Industry to continue reading materials, refer to and learn from the various designs of the masters of the Ministry of Industry Figure and its theory, it was not easy to get out of school.

Accompanied by Fu An, they came to Xie's Porcelain Kiln, and Xie Wuyue, who had already been informed by Xie's family, greeted them.

This is a young manager in his twenties, he is the son of Xie's natal family, his mother is one of Xie's wet nurses, he can basically be regarded as Xie's wet brother, Xie's married, he and his mother follow After coming over, he has been in charge of the porcelain kiln.

In Xie's words, this is a very shrewd man, not only in charge of the porcelain kiln that Xie's dowry married, but also some other workshops, mines and so on. He is loyal to Xie's family and extremely useful.

Fu Xuechen's father in his previous life also had a company, which was not too small a profit and tax company, but before the company in later generations developed into a large group, it basically would not cross borders, and only operated on the one-third of an acre of land to which it belonged.

The ancient aristocratic family is different, involving a wide range of areas. Although Xie's branch of the mother's family is not the highest in seniority, but because of the marriage with the general family Fu's family, the dowry is rich. It seems that the scale is not large. There are fields, mines, and workshops.

Fu Xuechen feels that as long as the Xie family's children don't risk their lives and have these properties as their backing, no matter what, they won't go anywhere. If there is something promising, for example, Fu Yuchen, as a marquis, can also take part-time high positions in the army and become his younger sister. With powerful backing, these properties may still be able to play the trick of big fish eating small fish and small fish eating shrimp in the mall, and the bigger the bigger, the more money will flow.

No nonsense, after the two parties met, Fu Xuechen said directly: "Thank you, sir, can you find two pieces of quartz sand and calcite for me? There are also fifty catties of soda ash, feldspar, and limestone. In addition, Find another large crucible that can withstand ultra-high temperatures without breaking, can you find it?"

"It's ok! If you have any other orders, the young master, just order them together!" Even if Xie Wuyue faced an underage boy, she still had the respect and obedience that people in this era should have for the young master of the master's family, and she didn't put on a show for her. What a scene of being slapped in the face for negligence.

Porcelain kilns have these things. Quartz sand and feldspar were originally the raw materials for making porcelain, and calcite is an associated mine. It is not difficult to find them. Xie Wuyue sent an order, and they were all transported to an open space in the porcelain kiln workshop in a short time.

Fu Xuechen heard that the preparations were complete, put down the teacup, and followed Xie Wuyue to the pile of materials.

As a science student, Fu Xuechen played with self-made quartz sand glass, but it was considered a laboratory preparation for play. At that time, only a small amount was made, at most enough to rub a few glass beads, but now he wants to play for real.

Fu Xuechen took a breath. At the beginning, she didn't dare to make the scale too large, fearing that it would not be able to close the field, so she started with a small-scale trial production.

Under the curious eyes of all porcelain kiln craftsmen, she scooped up all the ingredients according to the distribution ratio of the ingredients in her memory, mixed them well, and then poured them into the crucible. If she succeeded, she could get a crucible of molten glass .

The front is quite simple, but the difficulty is to burn it to a high enough temperature and stir the material in the crucible to drive away the air bubbles. But when she told these requirements to the artisans of the porcelain kiln, the artisans were very embarrassed.

This is different from firing porcelain. There is no need to intervene in the middle of firing porcelain. Porcelain embryos are placed in the kiln, and the kiln can be sealed and smoldered. According to experience, porcelain can be obtained after burning enough time to open the kiln. Stir after the material is dissolved, this...

never mind!Fu Xuechen deeply felt that in ancient times, when many conditions were not met, it was powerless to develop new products, so he had to give up for now. If there are bubbles, there will be bubbles!Don't care about this much, let's get a crucible of molten glass first—even if the molten glass has solidified when it is taken out from the kiln.

Fortunately, it is different from dissolving quartz sand into a liquid state. If the solidified finished glass liquid wants to be re-melted into glass liquid, it does not need such a high temperature. The temperature of ordinary molten iron is enough, so the most important thing is, Still get the glass liquid first.

The porcelain kiln can barely reach the required temperature. In order to better reduce the melting point of silica in the quartz sand, Fu Xuechen slightly increased the proportion of soda ash and limestone. Whether it can be successful depends on the results of the trial production.

To smelt quartz sand mixed with other raw materials, in addition to the ultra-high temperature of over [-] degrees, it will take more than eight hours. Fu Xuechen has no time to stay here. After handing over the follow-up precautions to Xie Wuyue, he left A porcelain kiln.
