Liangfu space has a little field

Chapter 108 Taking the Spoon, Glass!
The next day before dawn, when Xiaomi got up to practice, he found that Yun Xiang was already cleaning the yard. Seeing Xiaomi, he was very surprised: "Why are you so angry so early?"

"Is it early? It's still late today. I usually wake up half an hour earlier than today. I want to learn more while I'm young. Okay, I won't tell you. I'll go out for a run and come back." One day The plan lies in Chen, she doesn't want to waste such a good opportunity.

Yun Xiang stared at her in a daze, and said nah, "Oh, okay."

In fact, Xiaomi avoided him and ran to the woods in the suburbs to practice bouncing up and down. Bai Wu said that when she can quickly catch the bird, her lightness skill will be considered a step further.There are many trees in the grove, and there are naturally many birds. When she shuttled between the trees, she actually started today's lesson...

It was only when the sun was rising that Xiaomi returned home replete with energy. She went into her room to wash, take a bath (hot spring water) and change out of her practice clothes before going to eat the breakfast that Mrs. Chen had left for her. At this time, Mrs. Chen was with Yun Xiang in the backyard. Feed the chickens and ducks, seeing such a diligent Yunxiang, Xiaomi is also very happy from the bottom of his heart.

After feeding the chickens and ducks, Xiaomi gave Yunxiang 150 taels of silver: "Brother Xiang, here is 150 taels of silver, which should be enough to buy a long-term worker. For the rest of the money, you can buy some daily necessities for yourself, and you don't need to buy clothes." , there are ready-made fabrics at home, my mother will make a few sets for you these days. If there are still things that need to be purchased, you can just look at the arrangement yourself, our carriage is here, can you drive it?"

"Oh, yes."

"That's good. It's convenient to drive the carriage. I still have things to do, so I won't go with you. I'll trouble brother Xiang to worry about everything." Yun Xiang agreed with all his heart, and drove out happily.

After Yun Xiang left, Xiaomi quickly walked into the space and asked Bai Wu: "You have lived for so long, have you ever seen a material? It is transparent stone, the kind that can let sunlight through?"

"You mean... Liuli?" Bai Wu's tentative tone made Xiaomi jump three feet high in shock: "Yes? Is there really?"

Bai Wu rolled his eyes: "Of course there is. There is a method of making colored glaze in that library, and there are many such materials on our mountain. It's a pity that with your current ability, there is no way to make colored glaze." Can't walk through."

"Ah? Then, isn't it tantamount to talking for nothing?" Xiaomi instantly drooped his head like a discouraged rooster. Seeing this, Bai Wu couldn't help kicking her with a duck paw: "Are you stupid?" ? Everything in the world, the Kingdom of Jin is vast and rich in resources, it’s not like this kind of material can’t be found, why are you sighing like that?”

"You mean, this kind of material not only exists in the space, but also outside?" Bai Wu gave her a look of "you only know" and nodded, "That's nature, in fact, this space is also conceived by this earth. Yes, it’s just that it contains the aura and essence of the world.”

Hearing what Bai Wu said, Xiaomi immediately went to the room to look for books, followed the location in Bai Wu's memory, and she quickly found a book about glass, and introduced the origin and formation of glass in detail. The bottom is a transparent solid that forms a continuous network structure when it is melted, and it is a non-metallic silicate material that gradually increases in viscosity and hardens during cooling.Its main component is silica, which is widely used in buildings, used for wind and light transmission, and belongs to the mixture.If mixed with certain metal oxides or salts, colored colored glass will appear.

According to legend, glass was first solidified by acidic rocks ejected from volcanoes. About 3700 BC, the ancient Egyptians had produced glass decorations and simple glass vessels, and only colored glass was available at that time.About 1000 BC, China produced colorless glass.

About 3000 years ago, a European Phoenician merchant ship was loaded with crystal mineral "natural soda" and sailed on the Beluth River along the Mediterranean Sea.Due to the low tide of the sea, the merchant ship ran aground, so the crew boarded the beach one after another.Some crew members also brought a big pot and firewood, and used a few pieces of "natural soda" as a support for the big pot to cook on the beach.

When the crew finished their meal, the tide began to rise.When they were about to pack up and board the ship to continue sailing, someone suddenly shouted: "Everyone, come and see, there are some crystal bright and shining things on the sand under the pot!"

The crew took these shining things to the ship and studied them carefully.They found that some quartz sand and melted natural soda were stuck to these shiny things.It turned out that these glittering things were the natural soda they used to make pot supports when they were cooking. Under the action of flames, they chemically reacted with the quartz sand on the beach to produce substances. This is the earliest glass.Later, the Phoenicians combined quartz sand and natural soda, and then melted them in a special furnace to make glass balls, which made the Phoenicians make a fortune.

For hundreds of years, people have believed that glass is green and cannot be changed.It was later found that the green color comes from a small amount of iron in the raw material, and the compound of ferrous iron makes the glass appear green.After adding manganese dioxide, the original divalent iron turns into trivalent iron and turns yellow, while tetravalent manganese is reduced to trivalent manganese and turns purple.Optically, yellow and purple can complement each other to a certain extent. When they are mixed together to form white light, the glass will not have a color cast.However, after several years, the trivalent manganese will continue to be oxidized by the air, and the purple color will gradually increase, so the window glass of those ancient houses will be slightly purple.

……

After reading this, Xiaomi fell into deep thought. It seems that it is not impossible for her to make glass, but the premise is to find a silicate non-metallic material whose main component is silicon dioxide. Not to mention looking for it, the Kingdom of Jin is so big, she still doesn't know where she is located on the territory of the Kingdom of Jin, let alone find these materials, it seems that her glass greenhouse plan will be shelved for the time being up.

If it is in modern times, maybe there is no need to be so troublesome, and plastic film can be used directly, but in ancient times, let alone plastic, it is a transparent material that can let direct sunlight. Can it be covered?Thinking of this, she couldn't help beating her chest and thinking, why are the heroines in time-travel novels so easy to complete various projects that could not be realized in ancient times?How did it make her feel that every step was difficult when she came here?

The book is a good book, the glass making method and craftsmanship, and even the making drawings are clearly shown in the book. With this book, if she has the opportunity to find this kind of material in the future, she can eat and drink for the rest of her life, that's all. Now, she doesn't have a chance to do these things, so why not calm down and think about how to get rid of Ruyilou's suspicion of her!

"What's wrong? Can't you?" Xiaomi nodded, "I have no clue about the materials, and I don't know where to start. Forget it, let's think of something more practical? Tell me, how can we deceive people? At least, Can the ingredients provided to Ruyi Building appear outside, so that they can really see the way out?"

When Bai Wu heard it, she gave her a blank look: "It's not easy, don't you have spiritual spring water? These seedlings are cultivated in the space and then moved outside. The survival rate is naturally much higher than ordinary ones. You can go there once in a while. Once, when they are watering, add some spring water, and it will have an extraordinary effect. This spring water is much more mellow than you imagined. Even after dilution, it can bring you back to life. Therefore, You don't need to be so nervous."

"Really, really? Well, what about their growth rate?"

"Nature can't compete with space, but it also grows faster than ordinary plants. As far as vegetables are concerned, harvesting in half a month is no problem. What you need to do now is to plant all the vegetables you sent over. As for those fruits, there is no need to worry about them, firstly, many of these fruits cannot be found in the outside world, and secondly, the growth rate alone is a big problem."

"Well, I've thought of this too, don't worry, I basically know it." Bai Wu nodded, and asked about her shop, Xiaomi frowned: "For the time being... put it aside for now, wait until I put the rice The problem in Jiacun is resolved, let’s arrange this.”

"If you can keep the business in Ruyilou, that's not bad. Your ability is also limited. If you get busy with other things, you won't be able to do anything at all. That's all, let's focus on what's in front of us first."

Xiaomi nodded and looked at Bai Wu with a melancholy expression: "I'm so at a loss now, I feel like I want to struggle in this strange and unknown world, it's so hard, I can't imagine, if there is no space, how can I do it?" Survive!"

"You can survive without space. Don't you time-traveling women all have ideas?" Thinking of the previous master, it seems that there are also time-traveling women, and then he said this word very fluently.

Hearing this, Xiaomi shook his head lightly: "Different environments create different people. In my opinion, people need to be more down-to-earth, so that the money they earn can make them feel at ease and live more comfortably."

Bai Wu agreed with a face on his face: "I think it is very pragmatic, so let's work hard. I am very optimistic about you. You are different from the master in front of me. I hope that you will get the most generous rewards, little girl, persevere!" Don't be poisoned by this world for your faith!" After saying that, he waved his hand and left, Xiaomi looked at its back, and suddenly felt that today's white mist seemed particularly amiable.

At this moment, a voice sounded outside the door, Xiaomi's heart shuddered, and he stepped out of the space...
