Chapter 1272: Carrying on the Past and Opening up the Future (One Hundred and Sixty-Two) Glass

On the outskirts of Jicheng, Wang Kang stood at the gate of the Glass Shop, craning his neck from time to time to look at the road outside the shop. Now, except for a few masters, all the remaining workers in the shop had gone home on holiday. . Now, the square is full of soldiers from the Young Guards Guard Corps, and then there are the personnel of the National Security Bureau. Wang Kang believed that in the dark night outside this workshop, there were still countless human hands hidden in the darkness!

And all this is just because someone is coming to Liulicang today. Apart from the current supreme ruler of the Han Dynasty, who else would have such tight security?

For the king, there are no other words to describe his mood except admiration. The king is so talented that he mounts his horse to conquer the world and defeats all the enemies in the four directions. He dismounts to govern the people's livelihood and the whole Han Dynasty. The country is peaceful and the people are peaceful, and the people are getting richer and richer day by day, but ~Pig~Pig~Island~Novel www.zhzhuam Putting aside these, the king can always come up with some weird ideas, and these ideas, in many cases, in the end They have all turned into a variety of new products, bringing huge amounts of wealth to the Han Dynasty and creating one millionaire after another.

A year ago, Wang Kang was still a soldier beside King Gao Yuan of Han Dynasty. However, unlike ordinary people, he was literate and clever, so Gao Yuan often took him with him to experiment with some of the king's novelties in the palace. The idea was given to the king, and the current workshop was born from the king’s whimsical ideas.

In the palace, Wang Kang looked at Gao Yuan, using some sand and strange stones as raw materials, and finally made a colorful, crystal clear bead. At that time, Wang Kang was really dumbfounded. Is this a gem? ? A lot of sand and stones that can be seen everywhere, with a little help from the king, turned into gems worth thousands of gold?

But the king looked very dissatisfied and threw the beautiful gem into the corner. The king told Wang Kang that what he wanted was something completely transparent.

Later, the king seemed to lose interest in making this kind of thing himself, and left the matter to Wang Kang. Anyway, what was the principle of this thing, Wang Kang followed him and roughly understood it.

Wang Kang left the palace and traveled around Dachu with the mission entrusted to him by the king. He found a few craftsmen who were interested in this thing. This glass shop was built by the river, glass. This is the name given to this thing by the king.

For more than a year, Wang Kang spent almost all his time on developing this thing. After a year of hard exploration, a month ago, they finally came up with the finished product, although it was still not up to what the king wanted. It is said to be completely colorless, but compared to the colorful spherical object that the king made in the palace, their craftsmanship has greatly improved.

Wang Kang, who was overjoyed, immediately reported the good news to the king. Today, the king will come to see his research results in person. This month. Wang Kang worked hard and worked with several master craftsmen in the workshop to make more than a dozen sides of glass each measuring several meters in length and width.

Carefully mounted indoors for the King to admire.

In addition to myself and the three masters, the current workshop also employs dozens of workers, of course. These workers can only do menial work now. The only ones who can make these glasses are themselves and three masters.

The crisp sound of horse hooves came to my ears, and dots of torches appeared in the darkness in the distance. Wang Kang suddenly became energetic and came.

Horse hooves crisp, instantly. The group of people arrived outside the workshop. Gao Yuan, who was dressed in casual clothes, jumped off his horse first. Behind him was the second lady He Lanyan. Wang Kang quickly jogged a few steps to meet her.

"Wang Kang has met the king." He saluted Gao Yuan and then turned to He Lanyan: "I have met the second lady."

Gao Yuan smiled and tapped Wang Kang's shoulder with the riding crop in his hand, "Good boy, I thought it would take you longer to get it out, but it only took more than a year. It seems you are really working hard."

"How dare I not pay attention to what the king told me?" Wang Kang bowed.

"Brother, you said you wanted to take me to see the treasure. What kind of treasure is it? Is it right here?" He Lanyan asked strangely, turning her head and looking at the workshop built by the river. "Isn't this Wang Kang who has been with you before? It seems like he hasn't seen you for a long time! He was hiding here. What are you doing for your elder brother?"

Wang Kang smiled and said: "The second lady really has a good memory. Wang Kang can't resist a small soldier, but the second lady actually remembers it."

"I don't remember anything. I remember that for a while, my eldest brother often took you to tinker with something! It seems that now you have tinkered with it and presented it as a treasure. Come on, take us to take a look." He Lanyan said with a smile. .

"Yes, please, Your Majesty, Second Madam please!" Wang Kang said quickly. At this time, He Weiyuan, who had walked straight in as soon as he got off his horse, walked out of the door and nodded slightly. Gao Yuan and his party entered the glass house under the guidance of Wang Kang.

In a neatly tidied house, more than a dozen shelves stood in the center of the room, with dozens of bright lamps lit around them. The lights reflected in the middle of the wooden shelves, shining with strange colorful lights.

"Wow! What is this!" He Lanyan's eyes widened, and she rushed to the shelf in one step, almost pressing her face against it. A piece of sapphire blue glass was embedded in the wooden frame. He Lanyan looked through him, You can clearly see Wang Kang standing opposite.

"This thing is called glass!" Gao Yuan laughed and reached out to touch the cold glass surface. "Although it is not yet completely transparent and free of impurities, you can achieve this in more than a year. It’s really difficult for you, I must have suffered a lot, I think you are much thinner than when you were in the palace.”

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I am not suffering at all. I am very happy to be able to complete the tasks assigned to you by Your Majesty." Wang Kang said with a smile.

"What a good thing!" Gao Yuan smiled and touched the glass, as if he saw countless banknotes rushing toward him.

"Brother, what is this thing for?" He Lanyan asked, stroking the thing as well.

"What's the use?" Gao Yuan said with a smile: "Think about it, what would you think if all the window papers in your bedroom were replaced with this thing?"

He Lanyan was startled, "The light from outside will shine directly, and the room will definitely be much brighter."

"By the way, like your sister Jing'er and Ning Xin, they often like to enjoy snow in winter. After installing this thing, they can enjoy the snowy sky while sitting in the house. Of course, not only these benefits, There are so many uses for this thing!" Gao Yuan said with a smile, "You will know later. Wang Kang, what is your output now?"

"Back to the king, now only three masters and I can do it. The output is really too low. But please rest assured, the king, we will be able to form a certain scale in half a year at most. This glass has clarified its production principles and some The threshold for merging nodes is actually not high.”

"You are right, the threshold is not high, the focus is on mastering key technologies, Wang Kang, we are going to make a fortune again." Gao Yuan slapped Wang Kang on the shoulder hard, "When your production has formed a scale, we will sell this It’s just this one thing with no semicolon, so the money is still rolling in!”

Wang Kang knew that the king in front of him seemed to have a special interest in making money, and he also clearly separated his own money from the money in the treasury. This confused him. The big man belonged to the king, and the money in the treasury Of course, it belongs to the King. Why does the King insist on making such a clear distinction, so much so that he even caused a comedy where he furiously chased and beat the King of Finance Minister after he failed to ask for his salary?

"Wang Cheng, how much does this piece of glass cost? Have you calculated it?" Gao Yuan asked as he gently tapped the piece of glass in front of him, which was about a meter long and wide.

"If you put aside the cost of research and only count the production time of raw materials and the wages of craftsmen, the cost of such a piece of glass is only about ten yuan. If mass production is formed in the future, this cost can be reduced, and the output The bigger it is, the lower the cost will be." Wang Kang calculated in his mind and replied.

"Okay, from now on we can sell a piece of glass this big for 100 yuan," Gao Yuan said.

"One hundred!" Wang Kang almost somersaulted and fell to the ground, and He Lanyan behind Gao Yuan also shouted out.

"Brother, ten times the profit, what you are doing is almost like robbery!" He Lanyan looked at Gao Yuan with a pair of wonderful eyes, full of profiteers. "Who is willing to buy it?"

"Monopoly means huge profits!" Gao Yuan shook his head, "This is the only one with no semicolon, so of course it has to be sold at a high price. Wang Kang, when the time comes, you will send me a batch first, and I will live in the palace first. When the ministers who come to see me see it, they naturally want to buy it. Then these ministers often meet with the big congressmen. There are many rich people among them. You just have to sell it more expensively. They have to try their best to get some. Don’t worry about not being able to sell them. We’re going to make a fortune!”

Wang Kang and other people in the room looked at each other in confusion. At this time, the king looked like a money-crazed king, which was far from the image of the wise and powerful king in his mind.

"Wang Kang, you have worked hard for more than a year. From now on, I will give you and the three masters a total of 20% of the shares in this glass factory. Let's work hard. We big men will have another rich man." Gao Yuan smiled.

As soon as these words came out, not only Wang Kang himself, but also everyone else in the room were stunned. If the price mentioned by Gao Yuan could really be sold, even 20% of the shares would be an unimaginable fortune.

With a bang, Wang Kang knelt on the ground. The other three masters were already dazzled and didn't know how to react.

"Your Majesty, my subordinates are developing this thing under the orders of Your Majesty. How can they want shares in this glass shop?"

"What can you say?" Gao Yuan said with a smile: "I only started this matter, and you and these masters figured out the rest. Well, you call this technology investment, 20%, It's your business how you divide it between you and them. However, we still need to continue to think about, research, and improve the craftsmanship of this thing. I will tell you some other uses of this thing later. You should develop it carefully. From now on, it will not only be me. Property is also your business! Get out of here, you know the decision I made cannot be changed." (To be continued...)
