Chapter 318 She is an outsider
Feng Shaoqing was thinking about the cup that Xu Muhua mentioned, so he came uninvited the next day.
Xu Muhua was not surprised when the servant came to report it.
Since he had come to the house, there was no reason to send him away, not to mention that he had something to discuss, so this saved her the trouble of looking for someone.
Xu Muhua asked someone to invite Feng Shaoqing to the living room, and she asked Shi Liu to go over with the box of glass cups.
As soon as he entered the living room, Feng Shaoqing's eyes fell directly on the box in Shi Liu's hand, and he intuited that the box contained the glass cup she mentioned!
"Sister Muhua, I came uninvited, did I bother you?"
Feng Shaoqing only found out that his aunt had returned to her parents' home when he came to the house. If he knew, he would have asked Sister Muhua out. Fortunately, there is an old lady in the Duke Cheng's Mansion. Remember to pay her a visit later.
Xu Muhua waved his hand casually, "Brother Feng, you are being too polite. We are all family. Even if you come suddenly, I have nothing to prepare. Just don't blame me for not entertaining you well!"
Upon hearing this, Shaoqing Feng couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. He felt that sister Muhua must have some bad ideas in mind when she spoke so nicely!
His eyes fell on the box held by Shi Liu again. He probably guessed it, and the corners of his lips couldn't help but rise, laughing.
He knew that she must have dug a pit in front of him. But he knew it was a pit and had to jump in.
Xu Muhua also noticed his eyes and didn't beat around the bush, "I guess Brother Feng came here today for the glass I mentioned yesterday? I won't waste any more words with you, let me show you first. Pomegranate."
Pomegranate stepped forward and placed the box on the small table next to Feng Shaoqing.
Feng Shaoqing opened the box impatiently - a glass was lying quietly inside. This glass is just a very ordinary cup. In modern times, it would not attract the attention of others at all.
But this is Dayong, and there is no such thing as glass! I have seen all kinds of porcelain cups, pottery cups, and even those made of gold, but this kind of transparent cup is the first time I have seen it. Of course, it is very novel, even amazing.
Dayong has crystal, but not much, and even fewer that can be made into a luxurious cup. Moreover, although cups made of crystal look very similar to glass cups, there is still a big difference, especially in ancient times, when it was difficult to achieve the purity like in modern times. In this way, the difference is even greater.
"Is this the glass cup you mentioned? It looks similar to a crystal cup."
Feng Shaoqing was reluctant to blink, and carefully examined the cup in his hand.
He had seen cups made of crystal, which were not big, but very small and exquisite, and of course very delicate. But compared with the one in front of him, the difference was obvious. The cup in front of him was more crystal clear, and the transparency was much better than the crystal cups he had seen before.
He intuitively felt that this cup had not yet perfectly presented the characteristics of glass, but it would definitely amaze everyone if he took it out.
If it could be produced, it would definitely lead a new trend in the capital!
Feng Shaoqing's mind immediately started to work quickly, and he began to plan the whole thing with his abacus clacking. How to invest in production, how to sell, how much profit can it bring to himself...
If Xu Muhua knew what he was thinking at this moment, she would definitely give him a thumbs up.
See, this is the difference.
When others see a new product, they can think of the whole process in the first time and have a rough plan. They can even estimate the price of the product and have a rough idea. Unlike her, she is completely in the dark!
"Yes, this is the glass I'm talking about, and it's still a defective product!"
Feng Shaoqing's eyes lit up, "You mean it can become more perfect?"
"Of course! A truly perfect glass must be free of impurities and as transparent as the purest mountain spring."
The transparency of the glass in front of him is far from enough, and there are still many impurities visible to the naked eye.
As long as the technology is improved, more perfect glass can naturally be produced.
As for how to improve, Xu Muhua feels that she doesn't understand, but those craftsmen definitely do!
She has no practical experience, but she has rich theoretical experience! In addition, there are craftsmen brought back from small countries, and the two are combined with each other for research and discussion. I believe that it won't take long for those craftsmen with professional knowledge and skills to improve, advance, and then make better glass.
As long as the glass is produced, glass products will not be far away!
Xu Muhua thought that it would be better to let Feng Shaoqing worry about how much money to invest!
When she said this, Feng Shaoqing spontaneously imagined it in his mind, and then diverged his thoughts, and his heart was a little excited that he couldn't control. After
admiring it for a long time, he carefully put the cup back into the box and started talking about things.
"Do you have any ideas?"
he asked.
It was just a question for the sake of asking. If she didn't have any ideas, she wouldn't tempt him.
"I have this idea, but I have to let Brother Feng help me see if it is feasible. After all, Brother Feng is an expert in this area, and I am an outsider who knows nothing!"
Feng Shaoqing glanced at her with a smile and didn't answer.
Xu Muhua was not embarrassed, and told her her plan in a few words.
Just as she herself admitted, she could not compare with Feng Shaoqing in this regard, so she also told him her general idea.
Feng Shaoqing listened very seriously, nodding from time to time, frowning from time to time, with a serious and earnest look.
Of course, he could not make a decision on such an important matter in a short time.
Once this matter is implemented, it must take a lot of time, energy and money. And we have to consider various problems that may be encountered in the implementation process. After
Xu Muhua finished speaking, she did not urge him, but sat aside and waited quietly.
After a long while, Feng Shaoqing said, "Sister Muhua, please give me some time for this matter. I need to think about it carefully."
Xu Muhua smiled and said, "Of course, this is not a trivial matter. Brother Feng should really think about it carefully."
She didn't want this matter to affect the relationship between them or between him and his brother.
Feng Shaoqing smiled and said, "In this case, I wonder if Sister Muhua can lend me this glass for a while?"
"Oh, we are all family, so why bother to lend it to me? I will give this glass to Brother Feng!"
Feng Shaoqing was stunned for a moment, "Give it to me? You want to give me this glass?"
Xu Muhua nodded.
Feng Shaoqing didn't expect her to be so generous. He was happy and touched.
"Then I will accept it without hesitation!"
