That day, Shi Qingluo took Qingqing out to have dinner with Xi Rui and others.
Xiao Hanzheng followed Mr. Hou out.
When she arrived, several people had already arrived.
What surprised her was that Qi Yiyang was also there.
Xi Rui took the initiative to pull out a chair for Shi Qingluo with a smile, "Qingluo, sit down."
Shi Qingluo raised his eyebrows and said jokingly: "If someone is too kind to others for no reason, he is either a traitor or a thief. Is this the Hongmen Banquet?"
Xi Rui smiled and said, "What are you talking about? I admire you."
Liang Youxiao teased, "Do we dare to hold a Hongmen Banquet for you? If we do it today, we might be exiled to the northern border tomorrow."
Shi Qingluo wanted to hold her forehead with her hand. It seemed that everyone thought that she was the one who drove her scumbag father away. This was really a big blame for her.
She said unhappily, "Thank you so much for thinking so highly of me."
Liang Youxiao came over and asked, "Qingluo, what prescription did you offer this time?"
They are really curious about this.
In fact, not only they were curious, but everyone around them was curious too, since the emperor hadn't revealed anything.
Just then, they met Qi Yiyang on the way here.
When this guy heard that they were coming to have dinner with Shi Qingluo, he shamelessly followed them.
I just want to know what prescription Shi Qingluo offered.
Shi Qingluo knew this was the case.
She didn't hide it, "Rubber recipe."
After telling the emperor the recipe, she tentatively asked the emperor if he could tell anyone else about it.
Then, could her friends also go find rubber trees and cut the tapes to use?
The emperor agreed, so she had no scruples.
Liang Youxiao and the others were all curious, "What is rubber?"
Whatever Shi Qingluo tinkers with must be good.
Shi Qingluo replied: "It can be used to make shoe soles, and also..."
He briefly explained the purpose of the project to the emperor.
"By the way, when rubber comes out, I can also make a car that can be ridden by itself, which is more convenient than a scooter."
We have scooters, so we need bicycles too.
There was no rubber before, but now we can make bicycle tires and tinker with it.
When several people heard her words, their eyes lit up, "This is a good relationship!"
Xi Rui asked: "How do you make this rubber? Have you figured it out?"
He has always loved skateboarding, but now it often snows and he can't play it. Otherwise, he would skateboard when he goes out for a stroll.
Now I am also interested in rideable cars.
Shi Qingluo said: "No, rubber needs to be cut from rubber trees, and only in very hot places can this kind of tree grow."
"The Emperor has sent people to find rubber trees and tap them."
Xi Rui was a little disappointed. "Is that so? Then it will take a long time before we can use this kind of rubber?"
They couldn't possibly covet the emperor's things.
It would take a long time for it to fall into their hands.
Shi Qingluo smiled and said, "If you are interested, you can also ask people to find rubber, and then hire local people to tap the rubber, and then bring it back for use."
"I drew the appearance, characteristics, and habits of the rubber tree and asked your family to find it. It shouldn't be difficult."
Shi Qingluo felt that the emperor agreed with her, perhaps also in order to popularize rubber as soon as possible.
After all, there is strength in numbers. If Xi Rui and other families also get involved, the amount of glue produced will be multiplied many times over.
After several contacts, she discovered that the emperor was an old fox.
However, he is not the kind of person who is annoying and likes to scheme against others. It can be seen that the emperor really wants to develop Daliang and let the people live a good life. He is a wise ruler.
"Really? Can we do it at home?"
Shi Qingluo nodded, "Well, I have already asked the emperor for permission, saying that I want to let a few friends join me in tinkering with rubber, and the emperor agreed."
"Qingluo, you are so kind."
"Qingluo, you are such a good friend."
Several people praised it and thought so in their hearts.
Shi Qingluo was indeed a loyal friend. When he had good things, he would not forget to share them.
Shi Qingluo chuckled and said, "Of course, good things should be shared with you. We can make money together and be in the limelight together."
"Yes, yes, let's all come out together to be in the limelight!" This is what Xi Rui and others like most.
Liang Youxiao hurriedly asked his attendants to bring the four treasures of the study and asked Shi Qingluo to draw the rubber tree.
Shi Qingluo not only painted the rubber tree, but also painted Eucommia ulmoides and Glehnia littoralis.
Rubber can also be extracted from Eucommia ulmoides and Guayule, and Guayule is one of the three major rubber-producing plants in the world.
Because she was suddenly summoned to the palace that day, she was not fully prepared, so she only gave the emperor the rubber tree.
Later, when she returned, she remembered that gum could also be extracted from guayule and Eucommia ulmoides.
Moreover, these two plants are not as difficult to grow as rubber trees.
There is absolutely no problem in planting on a large scale in places with a more suitable climate.
You can also bring it back to reclaim wasteland for planting, as Guayule has strong adaptability.
However, it will also have an impact, but she also wrote down how to prevent and control it.
And I gave it to my young husband the day before yesterday, asking Mr. Hou to deliver it to the palace.
In other words, the emperor could ask people to look for three plants that could produce glue at the same time.
It won’t be long before rubber becomes popular on beams.
Because it was sent to the emperor in advance, she gave the painting to Xi Rui and others, allowing them to follow the emperor's footsteps, make a lot of money, and become famous.
After all, rubber had just been invented, and in the first few years it was definitely a scarce commodity, with demand definitely exceeding supply.
She then said to a few people, "By the way, these two plants can also produce glue. Ask your family to look for them as well."
"If we find any, we can plant them locally, or bring back seedlings and seeds to open up special wasteland and hills for planting."
"If it works, we will definitely make a lot of money in the future."
Xi Rui and the others' eyes lit up again, "What a great relationship!"
"Qing Luo, you are such a good friend."
Who would complain about having too much money? Especially when it comes to making a splash.
Liang Youxiao, in particular, no longer just thought about making money from rubber, he also thought about following Shi Qingluo to tinker with things made of rubber.
Xi Rong wanted to form a women's army, but she was desperate for money and was also quite excited.
She and Shi Qingluo's rouge shop has spread to Jiangnan and now has dozens of stores.
The monthly income was considerable, but it was still not enough to maintain an army.
If we build a few more manors now and plant the plants that Qing Luo mentioned, all added together should be enough in the future.
Qi Yiyang saw how excited several people were.
I also feel very itchy.
I couldn't help but ask: "Qingluo, we are friends now, can I join in?"
I never thought that after following here with such a thick face, I would get such news.
He felt a little regretful before, but now he is glad that he has become thicker-skinned.
Before Shi Qingluo could say anything, Xi Rui raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why, Master Qi, are you planning to join us?"
Qi Yiyang: “…” This guy is still as annoying as ever.
I will come back to correct the mistakes after I finish posting~ (End of this chapter)
