On the way to escape from famine, I amaze the world with my medical practice

Zhao Heng didn't know that the glass trade was a big deal, but it was really difficult to handle.

Ye Xiangxiang originally didn't think that this would definitely happen, he just wanted to ask clearly.

"There is also a place in our village where there is a lot of sand and gravel, and it is inconvenient to farm. I don't know if Uncle Zhao knows the sand used to make colored glaze."

Zhao Heng said, "I have seen it before. Although I may not recognize it accurately, it is always right to take a look first."

Ye Xiangxiang was very happy and said hurriedly, "How about we go see Uncle Zhao now? Dinner will be a while later."

Ye Hongchang smiled and shook his head, "This girl is very impatient. Your Uncle Zhao came to our house yesterday, but he went straight to the fields to work after he came. After finally finishing the work, he still couldn't rest, and you pulled him away again. Go see the gravel.”

Zhao Heng said with a smile, "It's okay, I'm also a restless person. Now that we've mentioned it, let's go take a look now."

The three of them went to the west of the village together. The ground there was indeed full of sand and gravel, with Fuyu Mountain as its back and water flowing through it.

Zhao Heng originally just came with them to have a look, but also wanted to make them give up their thoughts.

But after actually seeing it, he became a little more serious.

Ye Hongchang also became serious, "Old Zhao, what do you think of these gravels?"

Zhao Heng held it up and looked at it carefully. He looked at several places before saying, "I don't know if I made a mistake, but I always feel that this sand and gravel are similar to what I saw in Shu. Maybe This is really the raw material for making colored glaze.”

After hearing this, Ye Xiangxiang was a little unable to recover.

She originally thought of it suddenly and didn't have much hope. She didn't expect that it would really be possible.

"Really?"

Zhao Heng nodded, "I never thought about burning colored glaze myself, so when I went to Sichuan, I just looked at it casually, but the feel is not wrong, it is indeed very similar."

He didn't want the Ye family's expectations to be in vain, and added, "But I haven't been in this line of work before. I'm talking based on my own memory. Maybe I remembered it wrong."

Ye Xiangxiang said, "If Uncle Zhao feels like it, then it is possible that he can really make colored glaze. We still have to find a way to try it."

This sand field is very large and difficult to farm. It would be great if it could be used for other purposes.

Zhao Heng sighed, "Even if these sand and stones can be used to make colored glaze, how to make it? This work is very delicate, and most people don't know how to do it."

This is true.

Ye Xiangxiang read the book Ye Liwen copied for her twice, and she did mention the method of firing colored glaze, but it was very superficial.

I only know the general steps, not too detailed.

If you really want to bake colored glaze, you won't be able to just rely on the general steps.

Zhao Heng said, "Moreover, firing colored glaze requires a specific kiln with extremely high temperatures. Ordinary firewood cannot be used, so charcoal must be used."

Ye Hongchang's eyes lit up, "Coal can be found in the mountains."

"What, is there coal in the mountains?" Zhao Heng was surprised again.

Ye Hongchang gave an overview of the situation in the mountains, "The villagers here said that the imperial court originally wanted to mine it, but for some reason, it never moved, and no one mentioned it again."

Mines cannot be opened casually. They have just arrived in Dayan not long ago, so they still cannot take risks in these matters.

But Fuyu Mountain is not sealed, so villagers can go into the mountain at will and pick it up and burn it themselves.

Zhao Heng said, "If that's the case, I think you can really give it a try. Maybe it can work."

The most important thing now is that without this technology, I don’t know where to start. You can make money by making glaze, but the process is complicated and the cost is high, so it is impossible to try and make mistakes by yourself step by step.

Ye Hongchang clasped his fists and said, "Old Zhao, I wonder if you can do us a favor and go to Shu again to ask someone or inquire about the method of making colored glaze."

Zhao Heng immediately agreed, "It doesn't matter. As long as you make up your mind, I am willing to go on your behalf and do my best to facilitate this matter."

Ye Hongchang said, "No, you must also make up your mind. I want to partner with you in this business. Let's see if you have this intention."

Ye Hongchang looked at Ye Xiangxiang, who nodded.

It's best to do this.

If you just ask others to help you, you will feel guilty and you will easily not be able to explain many things.

If it becomes a partnership to do business, then everyone will contribute their own efforts and do their best, and they will not owe any favors.

Zhao Heng didn't expect that Ye Hongchang had the intention to recruit him into his gang. Their friendship for so many years was not just empty talk.

"Hongchang, in my opinion, your deal is probably going to be successful. If you bring me in now, you will suffer a loss."

Ye Hongchang smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "Now it's just a guess. I don't know if it will go smoothly. Maybe in the end it will be all in vain."

"Even if it is really made, ordinary people can't afford this glass, and they have to find a market. You are more familiar with this matter, and your efforts are indispensable."

"If you agree to join the gang, you will have to share the risks with the Ye family. It depends on whether you are willing."

What else is there to say? If Zhao Heng didn't dare to venture into the world, he wouldn't be a bodyguard.

For him, this is a great opportunity.

He laughed loudly, "Of course I am willing. If you are not afraid of me taking a piece of the pie, then I am not afraid of losing money. Let's do it together."

A few people walked around the sand field again, discussed some things, and then went back to discuss with their families.

The task to be done this time is not small and the cost is not low. Ye Hongchang is not sure whether his family will agree.

As a result, after he made it clear, no one in his family had any objections.

Ye Hongchang couldn't help but remind him, "To accomplish this, the cost will definitely be huge. Now I'm not sure whether it can be burned out. If it fails..."

The capital invested has been wasted, and there is nothing left.

Ye Hongfu said, "Second brother, your sister-in-law and I have no objection. We believe in your ability."

Mrs. Li nodded.

Zhou also said, "Second brother, Hongshun... is not at home, so I will express my position. I have no objection."

Ye Hongchang said, "Don't have too much hope in me. I can't do everything. This is just an idea now, it's not that simple."

Mrs. Wang knew what he was worried about and smiled, "Hongchang, our family has not suffered any hardships until now? At least we have a family now. You can do whatever you want. Our whole family will help. Even if there are risks, we should bear them together. If we can only enjoy blessings together but cannot endure hardships together, what kind of family is that?"

Everyone else nodded, and Ye Xiangxiang felt warm in his heart.

She used to feel that it was very unlucky to wear such a family, but now she feels more and more that it is God's blessing.

No matter you are rich or poor, it is good to have these family members by your side.
