However, these two craftsmen still underestimated the urgency in Li Xuan's heart because the vegetables in the vegetable shed had begun to wilt.
"I would like to ask the two craftsmen to pay close attention to this matter. The weather is getting colder and colder. I want to install all these glasses before the first snow falls!"
"Yes, within five days, we will be able to bake the glass and iron pillars that Master needs."
After spending such a long time together, the two craftsmen Ying Qi and Wu Fu also figured out some of Li Xuan's temper. They found that Li Xuan was really anxious, so they did not dare to delay.
After talking to Li Xuan, he walked into the forging workshop from outside the city and started firing glass and iron blocks.
Fortunately, Li Xuan paid for the materials for making glass and iron pillars himself and sent Cheng Chusi and others to buy them.
The warehouses next to the forging workshop have already been filled with three warehouses, so there is no need to worry about the shortage of raw materials.
Turn on the firepower directly and start the two forging furnaces at the same time.
In addition, Li Xuan, who was impatient, also brought six people including Cheng Chusi and Li Chongyi to help out every afternoon.
It originally took five days, but in just three days, hundreds of pieces of glass and hundreds of iron pillars had been fired.
Afterwards, they took Cheng Chusi and Li Chongyi, and spent two days to build a glass greenhouse outside the original vegetable shed. Finally, they spread the original thatch outside the glass greenhouse, and then placed these
Outside the thatch, a layer of earth wall nearly two feet thick and five feet high was piled up again.
Only the upper half and top of the glass greenhouse were left, which was completely empty except for the glass.
In this way, standing in the greenhouse is like standing in a courtyard. Except for the surrounding 'courtyard walls', you can clearly see the sunlight in the sky when you raise your head. The interior of the greenhouse is extremely bright.
Immediately, Cheng Chusi, Li Chongyi and others were all shocked, astonished!
However, I still have some doubts in my heart.
"Master, using these glasses to wrap the vegetable shed, can it really allow these vegetables to bear fruit in winter and not freeze to death?"
After his curiosity passed, Cheng Chusi still had some doubts.
As for Li Chongyi and others, although they also had these doubts, they still remained patient and did not speak out. Therefore, after Cheng Chusi finished speaking, Li Chongyi and others quickly looked at Li Xuan expectantly.
"This is my first time building a glass greenhouse of this kind. How could I know that?"
Li Xuan snorted softly and said something that made Cheng Chusi and others choke.
"If you want to know if you can grow vegetables in winter, don't you come to this greenhouse and take a look in two months and you'll know?"
"Thank you for the tip, Master!"
However, Cheng Chusi thought Li Xuan was teaching him, and smiled proudly at Li Chongyi and others, his face full of joy.
Li Chongyi, Changsun Chong and others who were watching on the side were speechless.
"Um!"
Li Xuan also looked helpless, responded casually, and walked back with these restless disciples.
"That's it for today, you guys will continue to bake glass and iron pillars with me tomorrow!"
"Ah? Still need to bake?"
Suddenly, Li Chongyi and the others, who were originally looking happy, turned into bitter faces.
At their age, it's time for fun.
For everything, there are also three days of heat.
Now, after being driven by Li Xuan and staying in the forging workshop for more than twenty days, he had long been tired of firing glass and steel pillars.
“Glass doesn’t have just one purpose!”
Li Xuan looked enigmatic. After speaking, he walked forward by himself.
Li Chongyi and others were left behind who were anxious but could not get an answer.
"Master..."
…
However, no matter how pleading the expressions of Li Chongyi and others were, Li Xuan had no intention of explaining.
Therefore, after several times, Li Xuan deeply understood that for this group of people, especially a group of uneducated and ignorant playboys, no matter how clear they were, they still couldn't explain it.
Only by placing those things completely in front of them can they understand.
Or maybe he was seduced by the second use of the glass, the second day anyway.
This group of dandies maintained a positive and enthusiastic attitude and began to help with the firing without any urging from Li Xuan.
Two days later.
Five pieces of glass three feet long and three feet wide were carried into Li Xuan's courtyard.
At the same time, two craftsmen, Ying Qi and Wu Fu, followed.
However, as soon as they entered the courtyard and before they could rest for a while, Li Xuan's actions shocked Li Chongyi and others.
"Master, why did you tear down all the windows?"
However, Li Xuan showed no signs of stopping.
Basically, the windows here are all made of wood, and the windows are covered with translucent bamboo strips. Therefore, they are very easy to dismantle.
Li Xuan just took an iron knife and with a few "clang" blows, he had already demolished a window.
"Here, take two iron frames!"
Li Xuan ordered.
"Yes, Master!"
Hearing this, Li Chongyi quickly picked up two iron frames and handed them to Li Xuan.
Then, Li Xuan asked Cheng Chusi to bring over the piece of glass again.
Stuff the glass into the iron frame, then install the iron frames on the remaining two sides of the glass, and then use wooden boards to fix the iron frames and glass to the window.
At this time, Li Chongyi, Cheng Chusi and others all understood.
His eyes couldn't help but shine, his expression twinkling.
It turns out that Master wanted to use glass as glass.
However, craftsmen Ying Qi and Wu Fu, who had never known the use of glass, looked shocked.
The glass is clear and transparent. With this glass window, you can clearly see the scenery outside the glass when standing inside the house. It is stronger and warmer than bamboo strip paper, and it is especially more transparent.
"This this……"
I said two sentences, but I didn't even come out with a complete sentence.
After all the windows in the house were installed with glass windows, the whole room suddenly became much brighter.
Seeing this, Cheng Chusi and Yuchi Baolin were even more excited, walking in and out of every room, looking extremely excited.
"Chongyi!"
"The disciple is here!"
Li Chongyi responded quickly.
"Go, take out one hundred guan of money and give the two craftsmen Ying Qi and Wu Fu 50 guan each as a reward for forging the glass!"
At this moment, Li Xuan also looked happy.
"Yes, Master!"
Immediately, under the surprised gazes of Ying Qi and Wu Fu, Li Chongyi pushed open the wooden door of the side room, took out a hundred coins from a wooden box in the side room, and stuffed it into the hands of Ying Qi and Wu Fu.
.
"This?...His Royal Highness?"
Each person held fifty coins and looked at Li Chengqian who was standing aside with a horrified look on his face. He didn't dare to accept it, but he didn't want to refuse either.
They have been craftsmen for half their lives, and no one has ever rewarded them.
"Since the Master has given it to you, then take it!"
Although Li Chengqian also looked surprised at this.
However, even the differences in temperament between my master and others are too much to say.
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
Upon hearing this, Ying Qi and Wu Fu quickly expressed their gratitude.
"Thank you, Master. If you have anything to do in the future, Master, please just give me your instructions!"
