Chapter 73: The glass is wrong

Hua Qingxue couldn't hide his excitement, and hurried back to the house. After a while, he came out neatly and dressed, "Go! Let's go to the firearm camp to see!"
Liang Wensheng is equally excited, just because he has witnessed Hua Qingxue make too many incredible things, he will look forward to what he will do next!
He respectfully and eagerly sent Hua Qingxue to the carriage and asked: "Master, wait for the distiller you said to be made, can I learn to purify with you?"
Hua Qingxue shook his head with a smile, "Not so fast, before learning to purify, you have to learn the periodic table and some simple chemical formulas, step by step."
Liang Wensheng nodded yes.
...
There were five glassworkers in this group, a master, and the remaining four were all apprentices.
Said to be an apprentice, but also the best four of the best selected technology from the glass factory.
The master surnamed Song, at this moment led a few apprentices to sit in the house to rest, on the table was a few bowls of herbal tea and hungry snacks.
The apprentices brought water to the master to serve tea, looking around and looking around, feeling very fresh inside and outside.
"It's such a big place. I only fear that there are only one hundred of these inhabited houses! I just went back and looked at them. They are all new houses!"
"Yeah, I just don't know what the houses in front were used for. Is that particularly tall building a furnace? If so, it would be too big..."
"I heard that this is a new camp, and it will be used to make new weapons in the future!"
"...I don't know what kind of weapon, why use glass?"
"Why do you do so much? Anyway, when it comes to making glass, who is better than our master?" The apprentice beat Master Song's legs and pinched his shoulders, said diligently. "How could General Fu get the master away?" Please come over?"
Master Song was flattered and comfortable, squinting and said, "Go, take our things out and arrange them."
A little apprentice listened and hurried to open the cage.
Master Song frowned and said, "Shao Wen, didn't tell you to go."
"That's right, don't mess up with your rough hands!" Another taller apprentice came over, squeezing the child aside, and his tone was contemptuous. "Be careful, the master is kind, and only brings you over to learn!" Don’t touch things, what if you break it?! Can you afford it?!"
"Isn't it? The master's glass products are all treasures. If you knock them, you can't afford to sell you! While staying!"
The apprentice named Shao Wen backed away nervously, shrunk his hands behind his back, and his expression flinched.
The older two apprentices took the cloth bag steadily from the cage and laid it flat on the table, then carefully untied the thick layers of cloth wrapped outside, exposing the glittering inside.
Those were two glass crafts, a high-mountain water-relief glass bottle, and a sculpture of a mantis catching a cicada.
The glass bottle is simple in shape and blue in color, which makes the whole eye-catching and luxurious.
The glass sculpture is ingenious, exquisite and extraordinary, especially the cicada, the wings are slightly transparent, and it is lifelike.
These two handicrafts are displayed, no matter which one is worth a lot of gold, and it is no wonder that it can become Master Song's proud work.
His apprentice carefully wiped gently with a soft cotton cloth, and praised in his mouth: "When they look at the master's glass, they will definitely treat the master as a guest!"
Su Shaowen stood aside and looked at the two pieces of glass, his eyes revealing the yearning.
At this time, there were messy footsteps outside, as if many people were coming here.
An apprentice looked at the door and immediately set the glass crafts on the table, "Master, they are here!"
Master Song was a little excited, thinking of meeting him and looking at his two works. He had a sense of pride in his heart, and he sat firmly and calmly.
Liang Wensheng led Hua Qingxue in. Because he was in a good mood, he did not realize that the other party was sitting and not moving.
Hua Qingxue itself is a respect for the elderly, and he does not feel that the teacher is wrong.
"This is Master Song, the most famous glassmaker in Hedong who makes glass." Liang Wensheng introduced to Hua Qingxue as soon as he entered the house.
Master Song just got up slowly, and humbly replied: "Jiang Liang is ridiculous, the old is just a little famous."
"Master Song is good." Hua Qingxue asked with a smile, "Can you look at your craft?"
"That's it." Master Song introduced Hua Qingxue to the two glassware on the table.
Hua Qingxue looked over and froze.
With such a shocked expression, Master Song is no stranger to his apprentices. Everyone who sees the master's work will express shock!
Although they don't know Hua Qingxue's identity, they can be brought by Liang Jian, and their status must be very high.
Master Song’s apprentice saw Hua Qingxue stupefied for a long time and couldn’t help himself. He couldn’t help but show off his thoughts. He said deliberately,
My master also has an eight-foot colorful Buddha. My master did not sell Yin Wanliang. This time I was in a hurry on the road. I was afraid that it would be too bumpy, so I did not carry it.
Hua Qingxue still stared blankly at the glassware on the table, as if he hadn't heard it.
They looked at each other and felt strange, but they did not dare to make a sudden noise.
Liang Wensheng is also carefully looking at the glassware on the table. Both the shape and color are almost perfect, indicating that the craftsman who made this glassware is very skilled.
"Where is wrong?" Liang Wensheng tentatively asked.
Hua Qingxue turned back, embarrassed, "Sorry...maybe, a little misunderstanding..."
Liang Wensheng immediately asked: "Why, is this glass not good enough?"
Master Song and his apprentices were all stunned, and their faces were not so pretty.
If such glass is too bad, the requirements are too tricky!
"This glass is good, just..." Hua Qingxue grinned reluctantly, "just...not the kind of glass I want."
Master Song’s face was heavy, and he was a little bit worried.
What kind of glass does this girl want? Let me tell me for details. I’ve been making glass for thirty years. No matter what color or shape, I have never encountered it. Unsuccessful glass!"
"Master, the glass I want, I'm afraid you can't make it. This is a misunderstanding. I made a mistake..." Hua Qingxue was extremely embarrassed and repeatedly apologized. I'm really sorry, we will compensate you for the losses caused to you during this time!"
Master Song is angry, actually said he can't do it? !
He has been making glass for thirty years. What glass can't be made? !
It was just that this time was an invitation from the general. Master Song’s anger was so great that he could only bear it, and he dared not easily offend the people in these barracks.
"Why did the girl think I couldn't do it?" Master Song asked with anger.
Hua Qingxue couldn’t. He picked up the kettle on the table and poured some water into his palm.
I want the glass to be completely transparent. Just like this layer of water, it’s light and translucent, and it can’t have any color or impurities. ."
A few apprentices on the edge immediately said: "How is this possible?! There is no such glass!"
"Yeah, we have been making glass for so many years, and we have never seen glass that is as transparent as water!"
"Isn't it whimsical?"
Hua Qingxue sighed silently, feeling very depressed, and did not want to explain too much with these people. He apologized again and gave it to Liang Wensheng.
She was so sloppy and forgot that although there was glass in ancient times, but because of the different raw materials, she could not achieve the effect she wanted.
...
The people in the room were very depressed. I thought that the general invited them to come and be able to make a name for themselves. I didn't expect such a result!
Master Song's face is already as dark as the bottom of the pot.
The General sent someone to invite him to work for the new weapons battalion, but the neighbourhood knew it. Now that he hasn't done anything, just go back? !
What did you say back? !
He glanced at the gold bars the apprentice put into the cage, and he felt a little relieved.
Fortunately... I didn't make a trip in vain. With these rewards, there is a saying when I go back.
Master Song poured himself a cup of tea, looking at the clear tea in the cup, and remembering Hua Qingxue's words, he could not help but scorn a smile of contempt.
Transparent glass like water? how is this possible?
"Are you all packed up?" Master Song glanced at the apprentices. "We have checked the things, let's go on the road."
Going back still sitting in a carriage escorted by soldiers was awesome.
"Master, Su Shaowen is gone!" Suddenly someone said.
Master Song frowned, "I'm gone? Here is a new camp! If you get into trouble, you're going to be killed! Where did he go?"
"Ah! Master, Su Shaowen went to chase the young lady just now!" an apprentice shouted loudly while holding the window.
Master Song's face changed suddenly! "That lady is someone who didn't dare to offend Liang Jianzuo, and it must be a nobleman! Pull him back to me! I ran into the nobleman, and we can't leave any of them!"
Maybe these gold bars will be lost!
Master Song regrets it! He had brought this boy over, just to get some labor for carrying luggage on the road. Who thought he was suddenly guts suddenly fat? ! If I knew it, I wouldn't bring this kid here!
Master Song’s two apprentices ran out, trying to drag Su Shaowen back!
Master Song went to the window and looked out, and saw that Su Shaowen had already caught up with Hua Qingxue, and the two stood in the distance, not knowing what to say.
Su Shaowen also took something out of his arms and showed it to Hua Qingxue.
Too far away, Master Song couldn't see clearly, only saw that the object refracted the sunlight, very dazzling.
Is it glass?
Is this bunny tired? After only a few years as an apprentice, he dare to carry him to show off his skills!
I really shouldn't have saved him!
Master Song was anxious and strode out of the house, ready to teach this little traitor!
Who knew that Su Shaowen in the distance had gone with Hua Qingxue? !
Master Song was stunned, and Liang Wensheng walked back with a smile, saying, "Master Song, it's okay. You take the apprentice on the road. Your little apprentice will stay for a few days, don't worry."
Master Song did not respond for a while, "Supervisor Liang, this, this is... what's going on?"
Liang Wensheng laughed, "What else is going on? Your little apprentice is talented and intelligent, and has been left by my master!"
Master Song's eyes widened in shock, almost incoherent, "What?!...you...your master? Is she..."
"Yes, my master Hua Qingxue, is the one who created the folding forging method and made the compound bow."
Master Song was completely ashamed.
