After being exiled, I took my whole family to farm in space
Chapter 264 Making Glass
Late at night, a figure flashed into the depths of the alley.
The man turned around and looked at the person, his cold and handsome face exposed in the moonlight.
"The subordinates pay their respects to the master."
"Exemption."
"Master, I haven't seen you for so many years, and my subordinates are finally waiting for you."
"How many people are there with you?"
"Master, after King Duan was exposed, his subordinates only took away 500 people. In the past eight years, my subordinates have not had much money to recruit troops. Now they only have 5,000 people.
In the past, Xie Jingming provided food and grass, but now the food and grass have been cut off for half a year. Fortunately, Master, you have appeared. "
"Go to the bank to get it and recruit more people."
"Yes, Master." The man took the token in one hand and left.
The winter in the northwest is severely cold, and spring is approaching and it is still cold. Fortunately, there is no snow.
Deciding to transform the northwest, Mu Chaochao got busy, writing down many methods of making glass, and even went to the kiln workshops where glaze was made to check.
Mu Chaochao learned about the glass manufacturing technology of this era.
Workshop workers will use salt malt, a plant that grows next to the salt edge. After burning, the plant ash is obtained, which is soaked in water, filtered and boiled to precipitate white soda ash.
Then use fine sand, limestone, and borate minerals to replace other materials and bake them together.
Mu Chaochao bought the workshop, hired dozens of experienced kiln workers, and improved the glass making process.
Quartz sand is the most basic raw material, which is available everywhere, along with other materials such as soda ash, calcium carbonate minerals, Glauber's salt, and calcite.
Put it into the furnace in proportion and mix at high temperature to burn it, and then it will form a clear glass liquid. Take it out and let it cool down to become a glass plate.
"Little princess, I have never seen such transparent glass. Do you think it can be made like this?"
The steward brought the first piece of glass to be shaped and showed it to Mu Chaochao.
Glass manufacturing is simpler than iron smelting. The people in the workshop are all experienced people, and the finished glass is already transparent.
"It's not pure enough yet. The hardness needs to be higher. The ratio needs to be adjusted."
Mu Chaochao looked at it carefully and was not satisfied. What she wanted to do was tempered glass, but it was still not up to standard.
"Yes, little princess."
"Fourth brother, this is the amount of raw materials used. Please help me keep an eye on it."
Mu Chaochao also pulled Ye Huaiyao over to help. She didn't care for idlers.
"Can this colored glass really build a house?" Ye Huai Yao curiously turned over the glass plate in his hand.
"Of course. Fourth brother wants to live in a glass house. We can build one in the future and now we will use it to grow vegetables."
Ye Huai Yao had never seen such transparent glass, let alone a glass room. Out of curiosity, he became a supervisor.
As long as Mu Chaochao is dissatisfied, Ye Huai Yao will continue to train these kiln workers.
No one was afraid of Mu Chaochao, the real boss, but they were all terrified of Ye Huai Yao.
Chu Gui didn't need to wash the donkey now. He stayed in the workshop with Ye Huai Yao and gradually became familiar with glass making.
Mu Chaochao stayed in the workshop all day, and with Ye Huai Yao around, she only had to look at the finished glass products and provide technical guidance.
"Go." Mu Chaochao sent Da Jin to deliver the message.
Ye Huaichen was in the capital dealing with Xizuo and Chunwei's affairs, and both of them now relied on the golden eagle to deliver news.
After Mu Chaochao stayed in the workshop for half a month, the glass workshop was able to operate normally. He let Ye Huai Yao supervise it and transferred it to Shenbingfang to make steel pipes.
A month later, both the glass workshop and the Shenbing camp were in good condition. Mu Chaochao went back to accompany Mu Yunxi earlier today, and Uncle Zhong came to report that there was a visitor.
"The little princess is back. A young master named Bai came to visit."
"Okay, I'll go over immediately."
"My lord, long time no see." The visitor was Bai Xi.
"Third Prince, just call me by my name."
"There will be no third prince after this year, so the little princess can just call me Bai Xi."
"Okay, Bai Xi."
"What does the little princess want to see me for?" Bai Xi came here because he received a letter from Mu Chaochao.
"I was entrusted by someone to ask you to take them back to the White Witch Clan."
"who are they?"
Mu Chaochao took out the spirit stone from the space and asked, "You should be able to see it, right?"
Bai Xi stood up and walked closer to check.
"There are spirits inside the spirit stones, who are they?"
"The Bai Wu tribesman who was killed by Bai Shu."
"What? Why are our ancestors here?"
"A hundred years ago, Bai Shu and the traitor Baili planted a spiritual tree in Zhuxian Town. After the blood of the Bai Wu clansmen who died in vain was drained, their bodies were made into fertilizer for the spiritual tree. For a hundred years, they were trapped, and their only wish was It’s to return to the White Witch Clan.”
Mu Chaochao briefly explained the reason and handed the spirit stone in his hand to Bai Xi. Bai Xi carefully stretched out his hands to take it and bent down to thank him.
"Thank you, little princess, for once again rescuing my people."
"You are Welcome."
"Ancestors, I am Bai Xi, the grandson of the current clan leader. I will take you home." Bai Xi held the spirit stone in his hands, and the spirit stone glowed brightly.
"Bai Xi, how is Beimo Country doing now?"
"The little princess wants to ask Xiao Mingchen, right?" Bai Xi put the spirit stone away and smiled with a relieved look.
"Brother Erhuang didn't catch the person who harmed him, and the story about his traditional Chinese medicine was spread out again. The other three places were healed. His hair and face were not easy to treat. He wore a mask all day long and his hair couldn't grow. He will be in trouble in the future. Gotta wear a wig.
Now the ladies are avoiding him, the little princess's medicine is really powerful. "
"Haha, that's not the medicine I made." Mu Chaochao was not surprised that Bai Xi would know that she had given the medicine.
"Now the second emperor brother has a gloomy face all day long. Now he doesn't pretend to be a gentleman like before. He looks much more comfortable."
"It seems that the second prince can't pretend anymore." Mu Chaochao said with a smile.
The two chatted for a while, and Bai Xi stood up to leave.
"Little Princess, Bai Xi will take the tribe back first. See you later."
"See you later."
After dinner, the Mu family was farming in space, while Mu Chaochao and Mu Qing were discussing things.
"Sister, the salt mines and iron mines have been dug. If there is no rain from the sky, it will be difficult for the people to survive."
"Brother, isn't there a lot of snowfall this winter? The snow water can still be used for a short period of time. It's only early spring. Let's take a look.
The glass is already being made. Now the Great Gobi is short of manpower. Tomorrow we will arrange for the people to dig out the land and dig a river. There are a lot of things to do, but there is no water. If it doesn't work, I will make a lake from the space. "
"Yes, that vast Gobi desert can be developed for a long time, and the people can still live off this guy."
"Brother, this is the design drawing I drew. This area is the greenhouse area. The groundwater should be dug as close to the greenhouse as possible.
A river is dug here, and drought-tolerant plants such as Populus euphratica, reeds, pines and cypresses are planted in this area.
How about building a village here and building a road to get out? "
"Chaochao planned it very well." Su Linyuan looked proud.
"Sister, I feel good too."
"Then what do you want to add? Otherwise, this picture will be the main one."
"Chaochao, you are very thoughtful, so how did you plan this drainage?"
"Dad, I forgot to include drainage." Mu Chaochao said after being stunned for a moment.
"It's okay, let's discuss it together."
Sometimes her daughter was a little confused, so Su Linyuan smiled and touched her head.
