Chapter 10.10. Discussing the production of glass
Uncle Zhou no longer has a simple cold, but has developed a severe cold.
According to the medical technology of this world, if you delay any further, you will die.
I heard that in ancient times, colds could indeed kill people.
"Really? Yaoyao! As long as your medicine can cure your uncle Zhou's illness, I don't want this silver, I'll give it all to you."
She went to Huichuntang, and the doctor said that the head of the family's illness had been delayed for too long and was difficult to cure.
No matter what method there is, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, she wants to try it.
"Aunt Zhou, there's no need for the silver. You've helped us a lot in the past, so this money is just to repay you. My medicine isn't worth much."
She complained silently in her heart that her ginseng fruit was actually very valuable!
The white fox Yaoyao secretly took out a piece of ginseng fruit from the space, mashed it in a bowl, and added some warm water.
"Uncle Zhou, drink it quickly! It will be fine after drinking it."
The old man said that ginseng fruit can cure all diseases and prolong life, and it should be able to cure a minor cold.
"Okay! I'll drink it." Uncle Zhou drank it in one gulp without any hesitation.
He had no hope at all for the medicine.
Anyway, his illness is not going to be cured. The child is taking so much care of him, and if he doesn't drink it, it will hurt the child's feelings.
As a result, I felt refreshed after drinking it.
My sore throat no longer hurts.
"Yaoyao! Your medicine is amazing, isn't it? It's not bitter at all, and it even has a hint of sweet fruity aroma! I feel much better after drinking it!"
Uncle Zhou immediately felt refreshed and full of strength after drinking it.
Her medicine is so magical.
"That's great! It's really great!" Aunt Zhou wiped away her tears.
"Yaoyao! Is your Uncle Zhou really cured?" Aunt Zhou held her hand excitedly.
She saved the boss, so we have to thank her very much.
She never thought that this medicine would be even more effective than the one from Huichuntang.
Baihu Yaoyao nodded heavily. She didn't expect the ginseng fruit to be so effective.
She was also happy to see Uncle Zhou recovered.
These people were very kind to her, and saving him was a way of repaying their kindness.
"You're welcome, Aunt Zhou! Uncle Zhou is in good health now. He just needs to take good care of himself for two days."
The effects of ginseng fruit are indeed powerful.
Uncle Zhou's face is flushed now, how can he look like a patient?
Aunt Zhou burst into tears of joy, "Yaoyao! You saved my head of the family. Take this money, and I'll get you some food!"
He forced the silver in his hand into her hand.
Her life as the head of the family is worth more than ten taels of silver.
"Ah, ah, ah! Aunt Zhou, I don't want the silver, and please don't take the food. I came here today to discuss business with Uncle Zhou."
Baihu Yaoyao quickly gave her the silver.
She came here today just for the glass issue, but she didn't expect that her mother also borrowed money from Uncle Zhou. It was convenient for her to pay back the money and save Uncle Zhou.
"Discuss business? What kind of business do you want to do? Just tell me, Uncle Zhou will definitely help you if he can."
Uncle Zhou can get out of bed and walk directly.
He even felt that his health was better than before.
It's like being a dozen years younger
"Then you guys chat, I'll go make dinner, Yaoyao can stay home for dinner. If you refuse again, Auntie won't be happy."
Aunt Zhou glared at Yaoyao.
Baihu Yaoyao didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Then I won't be polite!"
"Why are you being so polite to your aunt? You two can talk about business, I'll go cook!" Aunt Zhou put away the silver and went to the kitchen.
Now that the head of the family is in good health, she is also in a good mood.
Uncle Zhou smiled and said, "That's just how your aunt is! Don't bother with her! Just talk about your business."
"Okay!" Baihu Yaoyao told her that she wanted to make glass.
Uncle Zhou smoked his pipe, frowning and thinking for a while. "Are you talking about colored glaze? Can you really make it?"
If this could be used to make colored glaze, it would be a remarkable achievement.
He once made a dagger for a nobleman.
When the nobleman came to take the dagger, he was holding a folding fan in his hand. There was a pendant hanging on the fan, and there was a glass bead on the pendant.
I heard that a glass bead the size of a thumb costs more than one thousand taels of silver.
Most people want to buy glass beads, but they can’t find a way even if they have money.
If he could create colored glaze here, it would definitely be a world-shaking event.
Glaze?
The corner of Baihu Yaoyao's mouth twitched. People here call glass products "liuli".
"Uncle Zhou, now that I've said this, it can definitely be done. You have a furnace and a workshop here. If you improve the things in the workshop, you can definitely make colored glaze. Let's just open a colored glaze factory."
Uncle Zhou’s family has been blacksmiths for generations and they have a large workshop where the furnace can fully extract the raw materials needed to make glass.
If you have the technology, opening a Liulichang will not be a problem.
In ancient times, glass has always been a valuable item.
"Okay! I'll follow you! As long as I can do it, I won't be a blacksmith anymore and will just make glass."
Their Zhou family's ancestors had been blacksmiths for generations, but by his generation the business was a complete mess.
It would be great if I could do something else to earn money. This family is so poor!
His two sons are studying now, and he can hardly afford to buy pens and ink.
The Chinese New Year is approaching and the children will go home for the New Year. When they leave, we have to prepare money for their expenses for the coming year.
This is a considerable sum of money. If Liulichang can be completed, we won’t have to worry about these things.
"Okay! Then let's make this a deal. Here are the formula and raw materials for making colored glaze. I'll leave it to Uncle Zhou."
Baihu Yaoyao handed him what she had written.
By the way, he also gave him a silver note worth five hundred taels of silver.
Only with silver can you buy the raw materials for making glass.
Uncle Zhou was a little surprised when he saw the paper and the banknote in his hand. "Yaoyao, are you so confident in giving me the secret recipe? Aren't you afraid that I'll keep it all for myself?"
The white fox smiled, and Uncle Zhou, who looked stunned, actually looked a little silly and cute.
"Uncle Zhou, I know you well. Once the colored glaze is ready, make some glass for my windows first."
Uncle Zhou seems to be a good person at the moment, but no one can guarantee that a person will not change throughout his life.
In the face of interests, everything may change, and she will not gamble on a person's heart.
A smart person knows how to judge the situation.
She believed that Uncle Zhou was not that kind of person.
"Okay! I'll make some colored glass and give it to you first!"
Uncle Zhou couldn't help but burst into laughter, and his hearty laughter echoed far away on this cold winter night.
Baihu Yaoyao had dinner at Zhou's house and only took a few bites.
Sure enough, no one was having a good time. The Zhou family just cooked a cabbage soup with some minced meat in it.
I also made a few black flour buns and added a bowl of pickles.
The white fox Yaoyao ate a few bites and went home. The food was really not tasty.
After returning home, I went straight to my room, closed the door, and slipped into the space.
"Oh my god! These vegetables are going to be ripe so soon?"
The vegetables she planted actually grew a lot taller in just one day.
The cabbage has grown, the eggplant has bloomed, and the other green vegetables are also showing signs of maturity.
Judging from the situation, we’ll be able to eat it in two days.
The flow rate in this space is different from that outside. One day outside is one month in this space.
"No wonder the grain shop owner said these seeds were mixed together. They weren't necessarily the seeds of any particular vegetable! There are actually quite a few more varieties."
The extra vegetables include spinach, rapeseed, cucumber, cantaloupe, beans, and even a few leeks.
Baihu Yaoyao carefully moved the leeks aside.
Once the chive seeds are mature, she can plant more chives.
I would like to reiterate that the new article is different from the previous double-clean articles. It is a article with one female and multiple males.
In order to survive, the heroine can only be a passionate and fickle scumbag, which is similar to the stories about giving birth in the world of beasts.
Writing is not easy, just read it for fun. I don’t accept mindless criticism.

Please be careful if you mind! Please be careful! Please be careful!
