Chapter 975: Glass Blowing
Yun Dai asked him: "Why did you come here? I remember you are a goldsmith."
Wang Dingyang said: "The villain's family has been doing this for generations. It's not just goldsmithing. It involves all aspects of jewelry. Especially the villain's grandfather is best at glass and jade."
"No wonder. Your grandpa made the glass first this time, didn't he?"
"Yes." Wang Dingyang had a proud look on his face.
He led Yun Dai through a large venue, bypassing five or six people, and finally came to Master Wang Sanxin.
Unlike others, Wang Sanxin knew who the owner of this glass workshop was.
When he saw Yun Dai, he knew that the gorgeously dressed young woman in front of him must be a nobleman in the palace.
He hurriedly put down the tools in his hand, stood up and saluted Yun Dai.
"Grassman Wang Sanxin, I have seen my wife."
"Don't be too polite, Mr. Wang." Yun Dai took off her veil and said with a smile.
Wang Sanxin suddenly felt his eyes light up, and then saw the unique pair of little golden bells on her ears, and said with a smile: "So it's an old friend."
Yun Dai smiled, walked to the table, and saw a lot of semi-finished glass on the table, some were thick, some were thin, and some were not transparent enough.
Baoxing said: "Old man, what about that piece of glass you made, show my master a look."
Wang Sanxin carefully took out a palm-sized piece of transparent flat glass from the drawer, smiling all over his face: "This is the best piece I made. Ma'am, please take a look."
Yun Dai took a look and nodded, "Not bad. The blown glass is still a bit smaller."
"Yes, I'm still thinking about it." Wang Sanxin said.
"The size and quality of the hand-blown glass mainly depends on your arm strength and technique. If the old man feels powerless, you might as well ask Master Xiao Wang to try it." Yun Dai laughed.
Wang Dingyang chuckled: "I want to learn, but grandpa still dislikes my carelessness."
Wang Sanxin glared at him, then smiled at Yun Dai: "Thank you Madam for your guidance, Cao Min understands."
Yun Dai followed them to the furnace, where they were blowing glass.
This time, Wang Sanxin mastered the technology, and the young and strong Wang Dingyang spun the iron rod vigorously to shake off the glass bubble.
Wang Dingyang was very strong, and the glass bubbles he threw out were big and round.
In the end, a whole piece of three-foot-long flat and transparent glass was obtained.
Grandpa Wang's eyes shone brightly.
Excitedly, he bent down to Yun Dai and cupped his hands: "Madam really awakened the dreamer with one word. Great, great. The old man finally managed to make the kind of glass in the blueprint!"
Yun Dai was also very pleased.
In fact, she doesn't know how to make glass, but only provides general techniques. To really complete these, it is an experienced and skilled master like Wang Sanxin.
Now that the glass has been successfully made, the next step is to prepare for sale.
This is big business.
Thinking of Zhao Yuanjing's proposal, Yun Dai squeezed the imperial decree in her hand, and ordered Baoxing to drive to Gu's house.
The Gu family is now in decline, and Gu Hongmiao can't do anything. In order to make ends meet, Gu Cheng'an worked as a teacher in a private school, and his wife, Tian Shi, besides taking care of Yu An, also had to do needlework, starch and wash clothes for him.
When Yun Dai arrived, Tian's stomach was puffing out, holding a basin of laundry.
Tian's appearance was a bit thick, but now that she is pregnant and doing rough work every day, she looks even stronger and darker.
Good night.
