The academy has its own rules, so even if Wang Quan is the leader of the three elders in the town, there is no way to forcefully stop him at this moment.
As for whether to report as an official, it is up to the academy to decide accordingly.
In short, the Wang family must suffer this dumb loss.
Of course, since it was a show, Chen Mo still had to do the whole thing.
Considering that Wang Jun was severely beaten, Huang Shulang was asked to apologize before leading him away in a swaggering manner.
Before parting, Chen Mo specifically told Huang Shulang to show his face as little as possible in the past few days to avoid something like today happening again.
In half a month at most, Wang Jun will report to the Prefectural Academy and get him out of the way first.
Of course, if you feel bored at home, you can go to Baijiazhuang, but you must be prepared to work.
"As long as you follow Master, you can do anything."
Huang Shulang left a word and hurried home.
In the past, his feeling about home was that he had no freedom, and he thought about how to escape all day long.
After being detained for a long time, I realized how warm that place was.
Huang Shulang's view of family is that of a sudden awakening after experiencing setbacks. Chen Mo is completely different. He is deeply concerned about it from beginning to end.
After returning home, Lin Feng was leading people busy in the cowshed, while Qin Xianglian and Qin Qing'er were serving tea and water.
Seeing Chen Mo coming back, they both came to greet him.
"Officer, Brother Lin said you asked him to dig the cowshed. What exactly is a pond kiln?" Qin Xianglian asked.
"I'm thinking about how to explain it." Chen Mo scratched his head, "Do you know what glass is?"
Glass?
Qin Xianglian and Qin Qing'er looked at each other and shook their heads.
"How should I put it? It is placed on the window, which transmits light and blocks wind and rain at the same time." Chen Mo explained.
"What the official said was Mingwa?" Qin Xianglian said with sudden realization, "When I helped the official pack away his books, the Nu family once saw a miscellaneous book, which had an introduction to Mingwa."
"The most common one is to use sheep horns. First, boil the sheep horns into horn liquid, then add colored pigments to it, press it into thin sheets, and then it can be used after solidification. In addition, you can also use natural
Transparent mica sheets were used to make open tiles, and later shells became the main material."
"That's right, the shells are polished to make them thin and translucent and then installed on the windows, which becomes the shell window, also known as the "clam shell window"."
Chen Mo didn't expect Qin Xianglian to know this. Seeing Qin Qing'er's confused face, he explained a few more sentences.
"The windows of ordinary homes are usually made of kraft paper or white cotton paper soaked in tung oil. The high-end ones use clam shells and the like, which are open tiles."
"Then what's the difference between the glass my brother-in-law mentioned?" Qin Qing'er was extremely curious.
"To put it simply, the processing and production methods are different," Chen Mo said patiently, "Glass is fired, but others are not."
"Is it like burning charcoal?" Qin Qinger asked.
"More or less, we can't live without fire anyway."
After saying that, Chen Mo walked directly towards the bullpen.
"Qing'er, if you really want to know, please accompany me to burn the kiln in the next two days."
"good."
Qin Qing'er nodded quickly.
"Lin Feng, how are you?" Chen Mo walked into the bullpen and asked.
"The kiln is easy to dig, but the key is the molds. We have never been exposed to these, so we don't know how to match and install them properly."
Lin Feng raised his finger and saw that the chi kiln had already taken shape.
"Just dig it out and leave the rest to me."
After Chen Mo finished reading, he nodded with satisfaction, and then motioned for Lin Feng to go out and talk.
"Lin Feng, have you seen these things? Arrange for two people to grind them into powder. The finer the better."
What Chen Mo was referring to were things that the dental store had previously entrusted to purchase, which were the raw materials for making glass.
There are quartz sand, soda ash, limestone, etc.
At first, Chen Mo was worried that it would be difficult to find them, but he didn't expect that all the beautiful and beautiful books were available. Even if some of them were not of high purity, they were still very rare.
"Shimei, I have a question, can you answer it?"
Lin Feng is a well-known skilled craftsman in Qingyang Town. After discovering new things, his interest will inevitably increase.
"you say."
"Since it is a kiln, it must be used to bake things. However, looking at these materials, I have never seen many of them. What are they used for?"
"Make glass." After Chen Mo finished speaking, he quickly added, "As for what glass is, you will know after I bake it."
"Can I watch you burn?" After Lin Feng asked, he felt a little abrupt.
"sure."
Chen Mo didn't care, and in his plan, he had to teach Lin Feng these things, and even let him take care of the future glass factories.
Of course, that's a story later.
What we need to do now is to quickly start the kiln.
After burning, destroy the kiln.
First, Chen Mo had plans to build a new house. Even if he didn't destroy it now, he wouldn't be able to keep it when the house was demolished.
Secondly, it was still too early to start a glass factory. If he hadn't been anxious to prepare a gift, he wouldn't have thought about making glass so quickly.
After receiving Chen Mo's affirmative answer, Lin Feng happily took the people to work.
Chen Mo did not dare to be idle and started various preparations.
This busy time has arrived in the evening.
Throughout the night, Chen Mo only did two things.
The first is to fire up the kiln and the second is to prepare the ingredients.
He was so focused that he seemed to be in a state of selflessness, so much so that Qin Xianglian called out several times, but Chen Mo didn't respond at all.
"Sister, when did my brother-in-law become like this?" Qin Qing'er asked while lying by the window.
"It started from the day the floating ticket was destroyed." Qin Xianglian said with some worry, "Qing'er, you don't know, many times, I feel like the official has changed his soul, and everything seems to be different from before. No matter it is
It’s hard to see the shadow of the past in terms of character, conduct, and deeds.”
"Sister, do you think this change is good or bad?" Qin Qing'er's eyes were always on Chen Mo.
"Nature is good, everything is good."
Speaking of this, Qin Xianglian's face became a little shy, and there was more admiration and pride in her eyes.
"Are there no shortcomings?"
Qin Qing'er seemed to be asking questions or talking to herself.
Qin Xianglian didn't realize it and nodded with a smile: "In my sister's opinion, officials don't have any shortcomings. As for what other people think, what does it have to do with me?"
"If you put it this way, Qing'er is really envious of her sister." Qin Qing'er held her chin in her hands, a look of yearning appearing on her slightly immature face.
"If Qing'er really wants to be so envious, you can serve the officials together with your sister from now on." Qin Xianglian tilted her head, her smile showing seriousness.
ah?
Qin Qing'er exclaimed and quickly shrank back from the window.
"Sister is still the same as before, she knows how to make fun of Qing'er."
"Do you think it's a joke?" Qin Xianglian asked, then lowered the window, "Then just pretend that my sister didn't say anything and go to sleep."
"Sister, I..."
Qin Qing'er wanted to speak, but didn't know what to say, especially after seeing Qin Xianglian's increasingly plump waist, a look of inferiority flashed across her face.
Finally, he lay down with an angry pout.
"Sister, will you give me all your eggs from now on?"
"Why?" Qin Xianglian was puzzled.
"I want to grow up."
After saying that, Qin Qing'er turned over and faced the wall, and there was no more movement.
