Immediately, Lu Ming'an ordered: "Come here, send away all the idlers around the courtyard, and no one should come near."

"Master, the elite of our family have all been mobilized around the courtyard, but the lady and the family members know the news and want to come and see, I don't know..." the butler reported.

Lu Ming'an waved his hand: "It's okay, such an important moment, of course we must witness together, you go and bring all the family members here."

Not long after, all of Lu's relatives in the Lu's compound came to the backyard.

Lu Ming'an also knew that there were too many people talking, and they were afraid that things would be leaked.

Therefore, he claimed that he invited skilled craftsmen to invent the art of making glass, not that he had stolen the technology from the Datang Glass Factory.

"let's start!"

Lu Mingan waved his hand and gave an order.

The craftsmen were nimble, and quickly placed the jars placed around them into the furnace.

Then cover the top of the stove with a layer of soil, and fill it with stones, so that it is tightly covered.

Then, Lu Ming'an went into battle in person, holding a lighted torch, walked to the bottom of the stove, with a solemn expression, and threw it into the coal opening with a sense of ritual.

hula.

At the bottom, there were some dry firewood poured with oil, which immediately ignited blazingly.

Lu Ming'an turned around and said to everyone: "In three days, we will make glass. In these three days, everyone must cheer up and not slack off."

"Yes, sir!"

Everyone agreed in unison, as if rehearsing in advance.

However, amidst the neat and loud answers, there was a very abrupt voice.

"Master, master, master..."

It is the housekeeper of Lu's compound.

Lu Mingan frowned, this guy, is his mouth convulsed?

Before he could speak, he saw the housekeeper pointing behind him and shouting, "Master, sir, smoke, smoke..."

Lu Mingan looked puzzled, and turned his head to look, only to see bursts of green smoke coming out from above and around the stove.

"Isn't it normal for smoke to come out just after a fire is lit? This is something that a three-year-old child knows, butler, why are you making such a fuss..." Lu Mingan reprimanded.

The butler covered his nose: "Master, I know I'm wrong, this smoke is a bit choking!"

Lu Mingan and the people around him also found out.

The bursts of blue smoke coming out of the stove are unusually pungent and even make people cry.

Lu Ming'an pondered for a while, then said: "Everyone, don't panic, here are all the raw materials for making glass. Firing glass is extraordinary, and it's nothing to suffer..."

The voice did not fall.

boom.

A fire soared into the sky.

A loud bang.

The ground two miles around Lu's compound began to tremble.

……

boom.

In the distance, there was an explosion suddenly.

Then, the ground began to tremble.

Snapped.

The teacup placed on the table fell to the ground.

Lu Mingyu, who was calm and gossiping before making fun of Du He, got up abruptly and shouted in a panic, "The ground is shaking, the ground is shaking!"

Say, run outside.

But when he rushed outside, he realized that all the people in the county government were very calm, and instead looked at him curiously.

He raised his head and saw Wei Shuyu in front of him.

Wei Shuyu was holding a big bowl, and the soup in the bowl was spilled on his clothes, but he didn't realize it.

"Magistrate Wei, was there an earthquake just now?" Lu Mingyu asked suspiciously.

Wei Shuyu nodded: "That's right, to be precise, it moved three times. Look at my bowl of mutton soup, it's all spilled."

Lu Mingyu was a little speechless: "Then why don't you and everyone run away?"

Wei Shuyu laughed and said, "Why did you run? Last night, Brother Du watched the sky at night, and at this time today, there is an earthquake in the southwest, but it's just a small movement, so don't panic!"

Can Du He predict earthquakes?

Lu Mingyu expressed disbelief.

He asked again: "Where is the southwest? Does Concubine Du know?"

Wei Shuyu said: "Brother Du said, it should be less than half a mile to the southwest."

Southwest orientation.

Within half a mile?

Lu Mingyu's pupils suddenly dilated, and his mind buzzed.

Isn't this place exactly Lu's compound?

Before he could think about it, he turned around and ran outside.

Lu Mingyu took a carriage and hurried to Lu's compound.

When he came to the gate of Lu's compound, he realized that the place was already in chaos. The direction of the backyard of the compound was full of flames. The maids and guards ran out with their things, cursing, crying, and shouting. , mixed together.

He yelled in his heart that it was not good, and rushed inside.

As soon as I entered the gate and walked through two long corridors, I saw a ruin in front of me, and everyone was burning.
