Chapter 759: Just this quality
The emperor could feel that Zhao Chen was talking to him.
This guy probably didn't want to tell himself about this from the beginning.
So I only wrote to Empress Changsun.
But I didn't expect that Empress Changsun would bring him, the emperor, with me.
Old Li clearly noticed that there was something wrong with this.
"Boy Zhao, you didn't do anything to be sorry for me, right?" Old Li said slowly, staring at Zhao Chen's eyes tightly.
"You are so suspicious on weekdays?" Zhao Chen said casually, turned around and left.
I dare not let Lao Li ask any further questions.
Otherwise, he would not have thrown into the kiln to burn if he saw the emperor's model with the sky spirit cap open.
Li Shimin didn't believe it, so he followed Zhao Chen.
Everyone looked curious and stopped in front of the earth kiln in the academy.
"All these were built later?" The emperor looked at the earth kiln in front of him curiously.
It is said that it is an earth kiln, but it is actually built with cement and bricks.
At this moment, even standing fifteen meters away, everyone could feel the heat wave coming towards their faces.
"It was made by the students of the academy themselves."
"The students have made great progress over the time and have learned a lot from Zhao Chen!" Wei Zheng nodded.
In fact, it is not just the students, but Wei Zheng himself, who also learned a lot from Zhao Chen.
At least now, Wei Zheng can try to make a chair by himself.
"It seems that Mr. Zhao is still useful."
"Xuancheng, how confident are you with the burned glass they have!" Old Li was naturally satisfied with Zhao Chen.
But the words in your mouth always have to be pressed a little.
Now the emperor is focusing on this glass again.
The main purpose of coming today is this glass.
The preciousness of glass in the Tang Dynasty is definitely not just a literal meaning.
The emperor also wants to make some money.
If this technology of firing glass, then...
When I thought about it, Lao Li felt a little happy.
"This..." Wei Zheng was sure of what he was sure about.
Like others, he has never seen how to burn glass.
Even he always believed that the Tang Dynasty could not burn things like Liuli.
Glazing can only be burned in those places in the West.
If it weren't for Zhao Chen's personal leadership today, if it were someone else, Wei Zheng would have taken action to stop it.
It’s Zhao Chen.
This guy never seemed to have done anything wrong.
Maybe you can really burn glass!
"Reporting to Your Majesty, I feel in my heart that glaze can definitely be made, but this quality..." Wei Zheng turned a corner.
He felt that there was no problem for Zhao Chen to burn the glass.
But the quality of the glass is not easy to guarantee.
After all, this is the first time I cook it, and it is definitely not as good as those skilled in the West.
But it's good enough.
Many of them are fired a few times, and the quality will increase!
"What do you think?" The emperor looked at Fang Xuanling and others again.
"My opinion is the same as that of Doctor Wei." Fang Xuanling nodded.
"This fire can definitely be fired, but as Dr. Wei said, the quality is not guaranteed!" Qin Qiong also said.
Cheng Yaojin didn't say anything.
Instead, he looked at Zhao Chen in front of him.
You can see the firing of this batch of glass with your own eyes immediately. It is meaningless to say that those that are available or not.
"Open the kiln." Zhao Chen waved with Cheng Chumo.
Cheng Chumo took out a long iron tong from the side, which was four or five meters long.
The temperature of the earth kiln after two days of burning was too high.
Once a person gets close, he will be so hot that he can't stand it.
If you want to take out the glazed glass from the earth kiln, you must need special tools.
Cheng Chumo also showed great caution.
He didn't expect that everyone had been busy for so long and had a lot of clamps on himself.
Holding the glaze that looked like a little mouse on the outside, Cheng Chumo's neck was so hot that it was red by the heat waves.
"Slow down!" Old Li seemed more nervous than anyone else at this time.
Looking at the red little mouse Liuli, my whole heart was squeezing!
"Zhao Da, let it go... where to let it go?" Cheng Chumo felt his hands cramping and shouted to Zhao Chen.
"In the water." A pit filled with clear water long ago beside Zhao Chen's finger.
"Si—"
Everyone watched Cheng Chumo put the glaze of the little mouse on the iron pliers into the puddle.
Blasts of white smoke came out, accompanied by sizzling sounds.
Everyone surrounded him and looked at the glass in the water with bright eyes.
"Catch it up, Cheng Er, continue to get the glass." Zhao Chen and Cheng Chumo shouted.
Qin Huaiyu immediately picked up the net bag and carefully snatched the cooled glass out of the puddle.
The glass is wrapped in a mold and the real situation inside cannot be seen.
"How is it?" the emperor asked.
"Can you open it?"
"But be careful, the glass is very crisp!"
After the emperor finished speaking, everyone else showed expectation.
He said something concerned.
Zhao Chen squatted down and could still feel the warmth when his hand touched the glass mold.
The molds designed by the craftsmen in the Ministry of Works were all made of the best materials.
It can also be fired two or three times.
But when Zhao Chen thought of the head of the mold made for the emperor, he wanted to say that these molds were disposable.
It's a pity to think about it.
Slowly opened the mouse mold and saw a crystal clear color inside.
The little mouse’s back is golden yellow, the tail is blue, and the head is blue.
A small mouse actually has three different colors.
And there is no other variegated color in each color.
After everyone saw Zhao Chen slowly peeling off the mold, the exposed mouse would not move his eyes.
Everyone's eyes were staring at the three-colored little mouse on the ground, his face full of disbelief.
"Hey hey, let me give it!" The frozen atmosphere at the scene was broken by Cheng Chumo's loud voice.
Everyone took a few steps back and asked Cheng Chumo to put the second glass into the puddle.
"This..." Wei Zheng pointed at the three-color little mouse on the ground, his eyes full of shock.
He had thought before that it would be very good for Zhao Chen to burn out the glass.
As for this quality, don't be too picky.
He is ready. If the quality of this is not good, he will not lose confidence by giving Zhao Chen encouragement.
But now looking at the three-colored rat in front of him, Wei Zheng felt that the glaze he had seen before was all garbage.
"This is too beautiful. It's just burned out and there is no even carving. If it's carving..." Cheng Yaojin was surprised and reached out to grab it, but was slapped by the emperor.
"What are you doing? Don't move!" Li Shimin scolded.
But I have already taken it.
The three-color rat was not completely cooled, and it was slightly burning when it was held in its hands.
But the emperor did not let go, but squeezed it tightly.
Take it in front of yourself, put it in the sun, and taste it carefully.
"Dangdang--"
The emperor gently tapped the three-color rat, and a metallic sound came out.
Chapter completed!
