There are many preserved flowers, which means a lot of manpower is needed. In the process, this solves a lot of idle labor problems.

The fireworks display was so sudden that Ming Shan never expected it. After living in Prince Gong's Mansion for two months, she was summoned to Muqing Garden by the Empress Dowager. She presented the Empress Dowager with many gifts, which the Empress Dowager found quite rare and praised. Later, word spread that the preserved flowers had become a symbol of nobility. If even the Empress Dowager praised something, then it was bound to be a rare find.

After a period of busy work on the preserved flower project, there was also good news from the glass workshop.

"Master, the glass workshop has produced a piece of transparent glass without any air bubbles."

"Let's go take a look."

Glass is not difficult to make, but the finished glass varies in quality. Most of it is not transparent enough, and there are also air bubbles, too many impurities, and a yellowish tint. These are all problems.

"Master, do you think this piece might meet the requirements?"

The five people have been working in this workshop for more than two months. Their treatment is getting better and better. If they produce some results, even if they don't meet the final requirements, they will still receive a considerable reward, which makes them very motivated.

After numerous experiments and summarizing the reasons for their failures, they finally created a piece of glass that was completely transparent and as tall as a person.

Youqing took a close look, then took the glass outside and tested it by temperature and splashing water on it. The glass met Youqing's requirements.

Its hardness certainly cannot compare with the tempered glass of later generations, but little by little, this kind of glass has already become very useful.

“You did a good job, Chengying, each of you will be rewarded with one hundred taels of silver.”

One hundred taels of silver is quite a lot, and the five men quickly expressed their gratitude: "These servants thank you for your reward, Master."

Youqing said, "This is what you deserve. Continue to make glass and see if you can consistently produce the same glass. Record the things you need to pay attention to, and you will be rewarded accordingly."

"Yes, Master."
