Chapter 62 Making the Best Use of Everything(1/2)

Next, Liu Mingqi discussed with the two masters again.

The boy reminded them that this is a practical piece and does not require the two processes of "carving" and "painting".

The most important thing is to be sturdy and durable. The space in the middle must be able to get out of water and not be blocked.

Jin Kui and Chen Laowu are both masters, and after some reminders from Liu Mingqi, they also gained a deeper understanding.

By the time the two left, they had a clear idea in their minds and knew what to do.

Liu Mingqi asked Tian Rong to go back with them, and also emphasized the situation to the General Manager of the Secondary School there.

Anyao is about twenty miles away from the capital. The two of them came here in a carriage just now, and it only took two quarters of an hour.

Although Anyao was the chief executive of the Ministry of Works of the Dakang Dynasty, they also had to undertake some private work of royal relatives and nobles.

Well, the kind that needs to be paid.

As long as you give enough money, they can make you good things.

In this way, about eighty years since the founding of the country, not only royal relatives and nobles, but also great merchants and rich people like to customize the porcelain they want in various official kilns.

Over time, most of these kilns are profitable.

This has also become one of the few industries under the Ministry of Industry that can still make some money to subsidize household income.

Liu Mingqi did not ask them to make toilets in Prince Yu's Mansion.

The main reason is that the Yuwang Mansion does not have various equipment and environments in An Kiln.

First of all, a kiln is a problem that cannot be solved.

An official kiln factory has dozens of kilns of all sizes, and each porcelain master has his own kiln that he is used to.

However, what temperature is the most suitable, how much to stuff it in, where to place it is the most likely to produce the best... etc., they have all experienced it.

Liu Mingqi rashly asked the porcelain master to come to Prince Yu's mansion. Even if they rebuild a kiln for them, they would have to spend a lot of time getting to know each other.

Besides, even the soap workshop was driven out. Ask the emperor, what would he feel if he watched a kiln that was constantly emitting black smoke standing in the imperial city?

In order to speed up the construction period as soon as possible, Liu Mingqi naturally asked Jin Kui and Chen Laowu to return to the most familiar workplace.

As for the issue of confidentiality, the boy didn't think much about it.

The toilet is not just this integrated porcelain. How to store water, how to achieve buoyancy balance, and how to flush automatically is all technical work.

Just a buoyancy ball, a pressurized lever, and a piston water valve can stump many people.

But this also made Liu Mingqi scratch his head a little.

There is no plastic or rubber in this world, so if you are destined to make piston water valves, buoyancy balls, etc., you can only use cooked copper and other items instead.

Fortunately, when the flush toilet was just invented in the 15th century in the UK, they once had no plastic, rubber and other things.

As a PhD in physics, Liu Mingqi has seen the structure and principles of first-generation toilets, second-generation toilets, etc., but she didn't expect that she could use it for a day.

But Liu Mingqi also knew that Chinese craftsmen were the smartest people.

Sometimes they may not have innovative ideas, but it is absolutely easy for you to let them imitate something.

For toilets, they will take them down and then reassemble them and experiment. They can make similar counterfeits in one or two months at most.

Unless it is something that requires chemical reactions or industrial technical standards, few things can escape imitation.

Therefore, the boy has never used a toilet to make more money.

Just like iced milk tea, cakes, and ice cream, these things that will be figured out sooner or later will make no sense to hold on to them.

If there are too many things to make money in the world, why bother to worry about just a few things?

For example, soap, they can’t imitate it now!

...

After finishing this, it was already dusk before I knew it.

The weather is still so hot.

Liu Mingqi and Dazhu took a piece of watermelon from the kitchen to eat, and then saw the third butler Zeng Duoyi running over in a hurry.

"Your Highness, come and see, someone is giving you a gift!"

Hey, I like this!

Liu Mingqi was overjoyed, turned around and walked towards the front door.

I want to travel to a landlord's son and receive filial piety. I am a prince and prince, but it is only the first time I have met someone to give gifts.

It's simply too unqualified!

When he was overjoyed, Liu Mingqi quickly arrived at the yard of the front door.

There are usually several doors in the prince’s mansion, and the main door is not open on weekdays. Even the prince, princess and princess go to the side door.

In addition to normal side doors, there are also one or two small side doors, which are specially designed for the handling of goods purchased on weekdays, personnel entering and exiting, etc.

Also because of the need to pile things up, these small side doors will be a small yard when you enter.

Liu Mingqi's eyes lit up as soon as she stepped into the yard.

The one who appeared in front of Liu Mingqi was a tall and mighty horse full of black. It was estimated that it could reach about 1.7 meters tall, and its length was about the same as its height.

The most important thing is that it looks particularly majestic, with the four horse legs at least as thick as the thighs of ordinary adults.

Even with two people leading the black horse, it seemed a little unruly, constantly tilting its head, and its nose kept gushing, making a neighing sound.

"Tsk tsk, it's so good..."

Liu Mingqi was also very brave. She walked to the black horse and touched its soft hair, her eyes full of joy.

Even if he smelled the posture of a horse in his nose, he still enjoyed the superiority of this ancient divine horse from close contact.

"Your Highness!"

A heroic man next to him smiled like a chrysanthemum: "Do you still like it?"

"I like it, I like it!" Liu Mingqi glanced at him casually, "By the way, who are you? Why did you give me such a majestic horse?"

"Well……"

The Yingwu man's smile became a little embarrassed, "Your Highness, we only met this afternoon."

"Oh, is that?"

The boy then turned to look at him, "Oh, it turns out to be Captain Le, is this horse you gave me?"

"Of course." Le Jun regained his smile: "Your Highness, this was finally brought back from the northwest... It is said that in the Western Regions, it is also a very rare BMW!"

The Western Regions of the Great Kang Dynasty were roughly located similar to that of another world.

There are still a group of small countries that control it. Compared with the Western Qiang people in the northeast of the Western Regions, the Dakang Dynasty in the east, the Uighurs in the south, etc., they can only be considered younger brothers or younger brothers.

If it weren't for the fact that the Western Regions could be used as a business road to strengthen exchanges, and everyone could have traded some things in the Western Regions, they would have been destroyed long ago.

The families of Mr. Yiqin and Mr. Beixiong thought for a while today and finally decided to give this divine horse that had just arrived to Liu Mingqi.

Originally, this horse was prepared for Le Jun himself, and the two families spent a lot of favors and gold to finally get it.

Unexpectedly, Le Jun's butt was not hot, and his mount was about to be sent to someone.

Although Le Jun now has a smile on his face, he is actually crying in his heart.

But thinking about his brother-in-law's life and his pregnant wife, he could only make such sacrifices.

Liu Mingqi has not had much research on horses.

But he also knew that most of the heavy horses in later generations were bred from Europe through continuous hybridization.

Horses in the East, even if they include Rakshasa, are generally about 1.5 meters tall and about 6 meters tall.

It can grow around 1.7 meters, well, a horse that is about the same height as Liu Mingqi can definitely be called a divine horse.

"Very good! I like this gift very much." Liu Mingqi said to Le Jun, "You guys have trouble."

Le Jun was delighted, "Then your Highness, what we talked about in the afternoon..."

"Oh, that one." Liu Mingqi said, "I'd better think about it more. You go back first. I'll contact you within three days."

"But……"

"How about you pull the horse back first?" the young man said simply.

"No, no, no, how can I take the gift back?" Le Jun was startled and shook his hand: "Your Highness, then I'll leave first... Please consider the sincere intentions of our two families. The Wu family and the Le family are grateful."

"Tell me, if the Marquis of Beixiong and Prince Beixiong could have the mind and spirit of the lieutenant Le, how could things turn out like this?" Liu Mingqi sighed and waved, "Then I won't send it away, go slowly!"

Le Jun: "..."

I have long heard that Prince Yu is not a good person, and Le Jun also feels that others misinformation.

I only found out after contacting him today that he really has the ability to make people angry.

...

When Le Jun and others left, Liu Mingqi turned around and looked at the pillar.
To be continued...
