Queen Mother is a Scientist

The chemical reaction takes time. Hua Qingxue explained clearly the materials and steps needed to make a mirror, leaving two apprentices to look after it, and left by himself.

Liang Wensheng and Su Shaowen didn't dare to neglect Hua Qingxue's orders, and they found the supervisors of various workshops of the military weapon supervisor that day, looking for helpers and materials.

Hua Qingxue has a high reputation in the military. Everyone heard that she was going to do something, and all were enthusiastic.

Tieqiying beats and beats all night to make molds. The skilled carving craftsmen make all kinds of mirror backs. Those who live or not in the whole camp come to watch. They want to see what Hua Qingxue has to do to make new things.

The activity was a bit loud, and even Fu Tingye heard about it.

When the general asked, he realized that Hua Qingxue was preparing gifts for Shengjing and his entourage. He thought for a moment, thinking that he would inevitably enter the palace to see the emperor and the empress, and it was good to bring some gifts.

Fu Tingye waved his hand and sent a box of gold and silver jewelry to the craftsman.

Since it is a gift sent into the palace, the gold and silver are always better. It is better to inlay coral jade and the like, even the gift box must be good small leaf red sandalwood.

Hua Qingxue has no concept in this respect, only thinking of making a few mirrors, which can be used as a gift for Fu Fu, and can also coax Li Jingnan to play two things at once.

Hua Qingxue handed over the task of making a mirror to Liang Wensheng and Su Shaowen, and he was busy with handmade soap.

Once you are busy, time will pass by quickly, and you will soon arrive at the departure day.

On the day before departure, Master Xu, the master book of the Military Weapons Commission, gave everyone a half-day vacation, and brought a group of craftsmen to visit the Firearms Camp.

Glass mirrors are not considered military weapons. People who belong to the Qingzhou camp can visit at will.

Most of the craftsmen on the firearm camp were selected from the military prison. The people on both sides knew that. In addition, the glass mirror production was also helped by the military prison. Everyone met more intimately, and they just exchanged experiences.

On the open space outside the glass workshop, a table has been set up. Many mirrors are displayed on the table, with round hand mirrors, oval table mirrors, and wide and long floor mirrors.

The edging is also various, wood, copper, silver-plated, and gold-the sun shines, and at a glance, it is all reflected golden light, dazzling.

Everyone looked at the new mirror and wondered.

"How is this done? Much clearer than the bronze mirror!"

"Yeah, it's too clear! I have never seen myself so clearly!"

"Huh...I didn't know I had a mole here..."

"I heard that this mirror is to be sent to Shengjing, must it be expensive?"

"I don't know if we can use this kind of mirror in the future..."

Su Shaowen blushed and said to everyone: "It can be used..."

As a result, because the voice was too low, it was directly submerged in everyone's boiling emotions.

Su Shaowen's face was even redder.

He was hesitating to speak louder. Brother Liang Wensheng seemed to see his difficulty and raised his hand and patted his shoulder. He said with a loud voice: "Everyone can rest assured! My master said this, but every firearm battalion and military weapon monitor The craftsman of this company has one copy of this glass mirror. In the future, my younger brother will be the supervisor of the glass workshop, and he will be responsible for the glass mirror!"

Su Shaowen suddenly became the focus of everyone.

"It's really awesome..."

"Mrs. Si Bing has a unique vision, and Xiao Su's work must be better than blue."

"Yeah, Su Jianzuo seems to be no more than 14 this year? It will definitely be very useful in the future."

Everyone praised eloquently.

Su Shaowen's face turned red and he stood in embarrassment in embarrassment. He was uncomfortable with such attention.

Once upon a time, he was just a humble apprentice. Master Song taught his skills and never thought of him, even bluntly he lacked talent.

He had been an apprentice for a whole year, and served tea and water to clean the workshop every day.

But now, he is standing here, everyone is watching him, everyone is praising him, Su Shaowen's heart clamored, unusually excited, and even... some want to cry.

...

The craftsmen who sent away Master Xu and the military weapon supervisor, Liang Wensheng, were still not idle.

The rough refining of saltpetre and the production of Zhentianlei are all done on the side of the firearm camp, in addition to the acceptance of the finished products, the protection of the materials, the clothing, food, housing and transportation of the craftsmen in each workshop, etc.

Shortly after the establishment of the Firearms Camp, the manpower was low, and almost everything was put on Liang Wensheng. Just a bunch of trivial things could keep him busy.

He was busy working around and returned to the glass workshop without seeing Su Shaowen's figure.

Liang Wensheng couldn't help but feel strange.

Su Shaowen's efforts are well-known throughout the firearm camp. He is clearly the only glass workshop. Even if he is lazy, no one will know, but Su Shaowen gets up early every day and fights against the glass.

So at this time, how could he not be by the furnace?

Liang Wensheng thought to himself that Su Shaowen would never be lazy, would it be uncomfortable and go back to rest?

He was a little worried. He was going to find Su Shaowen at the craftsman's residence in Huoqiying Camp. He turned and took a step, and suddenly heard a strange voice in the workshop.

Liang Wensheng's pace stopped, and he looked around suspiciously.

Looking around, nothing was abnormal.

At that moment, the voice rang again, soft and weak, as if someone was sobbing.

Liang Wensheng walked in a few steps, only to find that there was a man squatting under the window, because he was backlit, so he didn't see it at all.

"Shaowen, what are you doing hiding here?" Liang Wensheng walked over to pull him up.

Su Shaowen covered his eyes, lowered his head, and said nothing.

He was short and his head was so low that Liang Wensheng had to bend down to see his face.

Wet marks remained on Su Shaowen's face.

"How did you cry your nose?" Liang Wensheng couldn't help crying. "The man has tears and doesn't flick. You are 14 years old, and cry?"

"Brother..." Su Shaowen dodged his back and wiped his eyes vigorously, "I...I didn't hold back..."

"What should I do to cry?" Liang Wensheng felt that Su Shaowen was suffering like a child. He reached out and rubbed his head, deliberately teasing him, "Did you break the glass again?"

"No." Su Shaowen sniffed his nose. "I just think... everyone is so nice to me..."

Liang Wensheng didn't expect that was the reason, he immediately laughed!

"Hahahahaha!..."

"Brother." Su Shaowen was joked, and he shouted weakly. The blush on Bai Jing's small face showed a bit of shyness.

"...Cough cough cough cough cough cough!" Liang Wensheng did not dare to laugh, his brother is really evil door, sometimes a sudden look, it looks like a girl's house.

"You are the master's apprentice, of course everyone should treat you well, well, don't think about it..." Liang Wensheng placated.

Su Shaowen nodded with his watery eyes open, and he trusted and attached to Liang Wensheng very much. When Liang Wensheng saw it, he was inexplicably flustered and felt strange.

"...I, I'm going to be busy first, and I will come back to see you."

Su Shaowen replied slyly: "Well, Brother, remember to rest, and don't get tired."

What a good boy.

Liang Wensheng thought so and left the glass workshop.

...

The next day, Hua Qingxue was going to Beijing with Fu Tingye.

Fu Tingye ordered a hundred guards to accompany him, and the long line looked quite spectacular.

Liang Wensheng and Su Shaowen personally packed and loaded the glass mirrors on the car.

The carriage was bumpy, and the glass mirrors were fragile, and they had to be wrapped in layers of cotton cloth, and the box was filled with cotton.

Hua Qingxue and the two carefully told him to entrust the firearm battalion with full power to the two apprentices, and then sat on the carriage in a state of melancholy.

Sheng Jing is unattractive to her. When she thinks of the long distance, she only feels pain and does not feel the joy of traveling.

The scenery along the way may be beautiful and novel, but how long can the scenery be seen?

Without a mobile phone or a computer, she would sit on the carriage day after day, and everyone was about to decay.

Fu Tingye was so suffocated that when he had nothing to do, he took out the chessboard and played with himself, or read this book.

But this method does not apply to Hua Qingxue. The ancient classical Chinese is too difficult for her to understand, even if it is only a novel playbook, she can't understand it.

Hua Qingxue began to miss her days of making soap and glass in Panshui City...

She was bored in the carriage for three or five days, and finally couldn't hold back. She sat down opposite Fu Tingye's chess board.

Fu Tingye raised his eyebrows unexpectedly with a smile in his eyes, "Want me to teach you how to play chess?"

Hua Qingxue shook her head, and Go was too brain-burning. She had learned many times and failed to understand.

"General, shall we play another chess game?"

Fu Tingye put down his chess piece, "What chess?"

——Hua Qingxue took Fu Tingye to play backgammon.

The rules are simple and easy to use.

Hua Qingxue had a happy three-game winning streak, and the dullness of several heads finally made her feel better.

However, starting from the fourth set, Fu Tingye seemed to feel the trick and suddenly started to counterattack!

Hua Qingxue began a fiasco...

In the end, she even embarrassed to continue playing...

"General... shall we play another kind of chess?" she said embarrassedly.

Fu Tingye also got tired of winning, and nodded, "Okay, what chess?"

Hua Qingxue repainted the chessboard and taught Fu Tingye to play checkers.

This rule is relatively new. Hua Qingxue started winning again in a row. Fu Tingye was happy to accompany her. Even if she kept losing, she didn't have any temper.

I played checkers for two days, and by the third day, Hua Qingxue could not win anymore...

Hua Qingxue thinks that Fu Tingye's strategy is too powerful. It seems that games that are too technical are not suitable for him.

"General, let's play other chess." Hua Qingxue said on the fourth day.

They started playing flying chess...

It was boring for two people to play this chess, so Fu Tingye called two soldiers in the guard to accompany him.

Four pieces of chess with different marks, all rely on the luck of the dice to fight on the board, the battle is fierce!

In the end, Hua Qingxue lost, and Fu Tingye lost, but the two soldiers won all the time.

Hua Qingxue thought: It seems that I am going to use the killer.
