Han Xiao stayed there for two whole days. During this time, he only asked Xing Yi to bring back a message and was busy all day long in the kiln factory.

Even though Han Xiao knew the technology of firing glass, he failed several times. Fortunately, Old Liu saw that Han Xiao was tinkering with it and was curious about the semi-finished products made by Han Xiao, so he came to help Han Xiao.

Finally, on the afternoon of the third day, Han Xiao made a satisfactory product. Lu Qingyun and Ruan Xiuran had been accompanying Han Xiao in the kiln factory and were so tired that they took a nap.

Han Xiao waited for the magnifying glass to cool down and then asked Lao Liu to help polish it. Soon, a prototype of an ancient version of the magnifying glass was made. He put it into a frame made in advance. Han Xiao picked up the magnifying glass and aimed it at a piece of pottery.

Old Liu was amazed. He had been practicing crafts all his life and had never imagined that a few pieces of stone could be made into such exquisite things.

Now Old Liu looked at Han Xiao with an extremely warm gaze. He himself was a craftsman fanatic and had spent his entire life in the kiln factory without getting married. However, seeing the magnifying glass in Han Xiao's hand made him feel extremely excited.

"Mr. Han...what...is this called?" Old Liu stammered with trembling hands.

"This is called a magnifying glass. You saw it just now, right?" Han Xiao said casually.

Lao Liu’s contribution to the successful production of the magnifying glass was indispensable, and Han Xiao could see that Lao Liu was a good person. Even though the kiln factory was about to go bankrupt, he had no intention of laying off the workers.

He's just not very good at operations and can only be a craftsman. It's really not suitable for him to manage a kiln factory that is about to go bankrupt.

"I see it, I see it. I, Old Liu, have lived for so many years, but I never thought that I could make such a magical artifact." Old Liu's big hands, which were cracked and covered with fine lines, kept stroking the magnifying glass, and the look in his eyes became more crazy.

"Then do you still want to continue to make better ones?" Han Xiao coaxed him patiently. Lao Liu was a person who was very easy to control. This kind of person was most suitable to be tricked into working as a laborer. Otherwise, Han Xiao would not agree to let Lao Liu help. After all, the manufacturing method of glass could not be disclosed to outsiders at present. Lao Liu was an accident. If it weren't for Lao Liu, Han Xiao would probably have to struggle for several days.

Old Liu's bloodshot eyes widened. He hadn't slept for almost a day and a night because of this magnifying glass. "Is there...is there something better?"

To Lao Liu, the magnifying glass in front of him was already a masterpiece of art, and Han Xiao actually said there would be a better one, which immediately aroused Lao Liu's fighting spirit.

"Yes, at present this can only be a simple version, and there is still room for upgrading. It depends on whether you, Brother Liu, can do me the honor to continue to help." Han Xiao's face contained a hint of regret, but at present time time is tight and it is already good enough.

"I'll do it. I'll agree to whatever you ask me to do." Old Liu put down the magnifying glass in his hand. He knew that Han Xiao's purpose in bringing people here this time was definitely not just to borrow the kiln factory.

But no matter what Han Xiao's purpose is, Lao Liu will agree, because apart from being interested in these things, he has no interest in any money, beauty or anything else.

Besides, his kiln factory couldn't survive anyway. Even without Han Xiao, it would still fall apart in about half a year or a year. Instead of that, he might as well follow Han Xiao.

Han Xiao would not treat himself badly because he had skills. Although Lao Liu looked rough, he actually had his own plans.

Han Xiao gestured to Old Liu to calm down. "Brother Liu, I don't have any other intentions. I just want to buy your kiln factory. As for the price, you can name whatever you want. As long as it's within the market price range, I have no objection."

This is undoubtedly the best solution for Lao Liu.

Seeing that Old Liu didn't say anything, Han Xiao continued, "Of course, Brother Liu, you can choose not to sell. I can buy shares. In this way, part of the kiln factory will still be yours, but the right to use the kiln factory will belong to me. What do you think?"

Old Liu fiddled with his fingers as if considering Han Xiao's suggestion. Before long, he said, "I choose the second option, but I have a request."

"Brother Liu, you say." Han Xiao raised his eyebrows as if he already knew that Old Liu would have a request.

"I need to know how to make glass. If you just give me this, the kiln will be yours in the future." Old Liu stared at Han Xiao's eyes, and his expression became a little distorted.

"Of course, since I've chosen to invest, I won't hide the recipe. There's nothing wrong with giving it to you. After all, the kiln factory still needs Brother Liu's efforts." Han Xiao had already seen through Old Liu, and he was not surprised at all that Old Liu could make this request.

Old Liu was a little unconvinced. He agreed so easily. Was Mr. Han a fool? Or was there a trap?

But even if there was a trap, Lao Liu would jump down without hesitation, because the glass was too tempting to him.

"You...are you serious? I mean I want the recipe for this glass." Old Liu still didn't believe that Han Xiao could tell him the manufacturing method so easily.

"Of course, a gentleman's word is as good as gold. If you don't believe me, Brother Liu, we can make a written agreement, but I also need Brother Liu to sign a contract for me." Han Xiao shrugged and said to Lao Liu.

When Lao Liu heard Han Xiao asking him to sign a contract, he felt relieved: "What contract?"

"That is, you cannot work alone within ten years after getting the prescription. This is my requirement." Han Xiao explained the matter clearly to Lao Liu. Even if Lao Liu wanted to start a new business in the future, he would have to wait ten years.

Old Liu had no objection to this. If nothing unexpected happened, he would continue to cooperate with Han Xiao. After all, if he were to run a kiln factory alone, it would only end up bankrupt. Even though Han Xiao knew this, he still needed Old Liu to sign the contract just in case.

Seeing that Old Liu had no more objections, he called up Ruan Xiuran and Lu Qingyun, who were both very nice. They were elegant young men a few days ago, but after spending two days in the kiln factory, they looked like cabbages in the field.

Lu Qingyun finally sat up. He was exhausted these two days. Although he didn't do anything, he was exhausted from staring at Han Xiao all the time. He had just taken a nap when he was suddenly woken up by Han Xiao. Lu Qingyun was startled. Did he do it?

Lu Qingyun was shocked: "Han Xiao, is it done?"

Seeing Han Xiao and Lao Liu facing each other, Lu Qingyun touched his head and walked to their side.

Han Xiao handed him the magnifying glass: "Take a look at this."

Lu Qingyun's eyes widened. What? Crystal? Where did they get such a big crystal?

After looking at it carefully, he felt something was wrong. He had seen crystals before, but he had never seen crystals so transparent. If the quality of the crystal could reach this level, it would be priceless.
