A Farmer's Lady's Guide to Getting Rich

Chapter 501 Could it be that he is also a time traveler?
It has to be said that Yun Xixi's mobility is still very strong. Less than a month after she became a noble concubine, she killed a little beauty in Beirong's harem, and hugged the other's newborn child to her knees.

"Cousin Yun's vision is still too low."

Chang Ning felt that Yun Xixi was stupid!Your husband has just become the emperor, and his position is still unstable. Why are you fighting for a son?It's important that you find a way to help your husband remove obstacles!How useful is it for you to get a child who is not a biological mother with a low status and is not a direct child?

"If she's not stupid, I wouldn't dare to send her to Beirong, just let her be killed by the eighth princess!"

Xiao Qian responded lightly, Yelu Qingcang disappeared, and there was no news after searching for a month, he has been a little unhappy, so he can only start second-hand arrangements: further blockade the border, and encourage Yelu Xiaoran's people to secretly search and assassinate Yelu Qingcang, further provoke the conflict in Beirong...

Time passed so quickly, and it was the end of autumn in a blink of an eye. Shen Yu from the middle of Beijing wrote to Changning: This year the farm has enjoyed a bumper harvest. Excluding all kinds of rations left for planting, he can also send a million catties to support the Northwest.

At the same time, good news came from Wen Daotang: her father, Qin Xiucai, took the imperial examination in Qiuwei, won the first place, and won the prize.Some people doubted Qin's father's ability because of the relationship between Changning and the Zhenbei Palace. However, after investigating him, he was selected as a scholar in his teens.

And at the same time, most of the dozens of poor scholars studying in Wendaotang passed the examination and became Juren. It is said that some people have counted, and the pass rate is not comparable to that of other schools.

This is clearly the Shen family will teach!As a result, Wen Dao Hall became famous again in the capital. Now not only poor scholars, but also many children of rich people have sharpened their heads to drill in, resulting in staff saturation. The Shen family had no choice but to start running the school for a fee.

Of course, the fee is only for the rich, and the poor can enroll for free as long as they pass the exam.

The Wen Dao Hall has been running smoothly in this way. The students who passed the exam are all students of the Shen family. When they step into the court one by one, after a few years, they will be a force that cannot be ignored.

The Shen family follows the ancestral precepts and will never become an official, but no one can stop their influence on the government.

"I didn't expect my father to be a student!" Hearing that his family was promising, Chang Ning naturally liked it very much. He immediately ordered people to prepare generous gifts and went to the capital to congratulate him. At the same time, he sent the first batch of glass gadgets produced Send it to Xingfu's home for Mr. Su to sell.

This batch of small glass gadgets are ordinary but elegant glass cups, glass vases, small glass ornaments and so on. They are basically the works of Murong Li. They are very beautiful, and the finished products are not inferior to glass products.

However, because the manufacturing technique of glass is much simpler than that of ancient colored glaze, and the raw materials are much cheaper, the cost of this batch of glass gadgets is very low, less than one-tenth of the equivalent colored glaze.

Changning wants to open up the sales of glass products and let more people know about it, so the price set for glass products is half of that of glazed products.

In this era, glassware was quite expensive because it was not easy to fire, and there were only a few sets of glassware in the homes of many princes and nobles.The appearance of cheap glassware with more colors and shapes, as expected, immediately attracted the attention of rich people, and they were quickly sold out.

After all, the glazed workshop in the Wangfu is small in size and can't make any big things, so it will continue to be left to Murongli.It just so happened that the craftsmen managed to make the first piece of glass that could be installed on a window, so Changning decisively took a piece of land in Huining City and started building a glass factory.

Once the factory is built, various management personnel are needed, and because it is a new product, it has to be produced in secret.However, Changning is now the mistress of all the secret guards of the Xiao family in the Qishan Bieyuan. He doesn't worry about being used by anyone. He just greeted him casually, and the people came to his door. The start of construction, construction, testing, and production, everything went smoothly. smoothly.

When it was snowing heavily in winter, Shen Yu disguised himself as a grain merchant and escorted the grain into the northwest. After sending the grain to the military camp for storage, he came to the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion.

Chang Ning entertained him in the newly built glass warming room. He ate hot pot with a warm stove. In front of him was a large floor-to-ceiling glass window. He could see the big snowflakes falling one after another without going out and not being ravaged by the cold wind. Falling down, leisurely piled up a piece of silver between the sky and the earth.

"The concubine Shizi is really extravagant, she even used crystal abrasives to make windows!" Shen Yu was amazed.

"Cousin is wrong, this is not crystal!" Chang Ning ordered someone to take out a few samples, and showed Shen Yu a closer look: "This is my newly researched glass, and the cost is not expensive. Even if you look at the big ones, they are three feet long. A piece of length and width, in fact, the cost is less than two taels of silver."

"What, glass? But the glass sold by Xingfujia is not like this!" Shen Yu was deeply shocked. If it was crystal so big, the price would be unimaginable.But the thing in front of me obviously looks similar to crystal, but it's so cheap!

"There are many kinds of glass, which can be used to make various things. This is just the most common and common type!" Chang Ning winked at him slyly: "Why, cousin is interested?"

"That's needless to say! If we can use this instead of window paper for the windows of our Wendao Hall, it will be really bright." Shen Yu made no secret of his love for glass, leaning against the window and touching it again and again, eyes full of tears It's interest.

"Cousin is here to deliver food this time, and the car back is still empty, so I can take it with me!" Chang Ning wanted to pull Shen Yu into his logistics shopkeeper by the way, and said with a smile: "Cousin is here for a new year. Help me transport a batch of glass back in the next year, and I want to build a glass business in the capital. If my cousin is interested, you can do it together, and sell it no matter how expensive it is, and you will never treat my cousin badly, okay?"

"This is good!" Shen Yu nodded immediately: "Such a rare and good thing has to be sold at a higher price. People in the capital use it first, and people in other places will naturally follow suit. Cousin, is this the rhythm of making a lot of money?"

"Who would dislike a lot of money! In fact, I will trouble my cousin once or twice. When the market opens up in the future, I will naturally build glass factories in the capital or other rich places to produce and sell them locally!"

"I have to say, Chang Ning, when my son marries you, he is marrying a God of Wealth, what a blessing!" After thinking about it for a while, Shen Yu knew how broad the money scene was.

Changning's glass business was settled in this way, and a few days later, when Liu Qianqian, who had been grounded for dozens of days, walked into the garden and found that there was a glass greenhouse inside, she was shocked.

"This, this, this is glass. I haven't told Shi Zifei about glass, how could it be made?" She was a little confused.

"My servant has inquired, is this glass invented by Mr. Liuli?" Cui'er had heard about it a long time ago, and quietly reported: "Mr. Liuli is the young master of the Baishamen. It was done in the workshop, and the glass was accidentally broken out."

"Impossible, even if he did it by accident, how would he know it's called glass, and it can be pressed into thin sheets to make windows?" Liu Qianqian didn't believe it, but a strange thought came to her mind: "Could it be possible, Murong?" Li is a time traveler?"
