Chapter 142 If it were in your hands, would this be a treasure that is hard to find? (Fourth update, please subscribe and vote)
The main reason is that the quality of glass products in this era is too low and contains too many impurities.
As a result, the glass texture is not transparent at all, and it is also full of pores, making it unable to fulfill its true purpose.
Furthermore, when used as a serving utensil, porcelain can be more elegant and beautiful.
Ever since, in the Central Plains, this thing has become a thing that my father doesn't care about and my uncle doesn't like it.
At most, only some fresh and curious people buy some high-end glass products to show off.
He saw that after Gao Zhang listened to his words, his hands were still holding the bottle stubbornly.
His eyes were fixed on this worthless thing, which immediately aroused the curiosity of the father and mother.
Huang tidied Gao Zhang's temples dotingly and asked with a smile.
"Zhang'er, you like this thing so much. If so, ask your father to buy more for you."
"No, no, no, if this glass falls into the hands of others, it may just be worthless and have no practical value."
"But if it is in the hands of a child, this is a treasure that is hard to find..."
Before he finished speaking, Gao Zhang couldn't help but opened his mouth and let out a big yawn.
Gao Qiu on the side heard this and was about to ask more questions. Just as he was about to speak, his wife Huang glared at her.
"I didn't see how sleepy the children were. Such a young child is so tired all day long that he doesn't even have time to rest.
Dear Zhang'er, Mom, please take me back to your house. Poor, if you get sick from exhaustion, what will you do..."
Seeing his wife Huang helping Gao Zhang to leave with distress, Gao Qiu shook his head helplessly, and his eyes fell on the glass vase again.
"If it were in your hands, would this be a treasure that is hard to find?"
Gao Qiu looked at the glass vase carefully. This vase was indeed the best among glass products.
There are not many bubbles in the entire vase body. The important thing is that its color is translucent, which is much stronger than ordinary glass products.
"Since my son has spoken such bold words, how can I not help you..."
Gao Qiu gently patted the body of the vase with his big hand, showing a smile full of kind fatherly love.
"Someone, go get Fukang over."
"Fukang, give you one day to find out clearly where in the Song Dynasty the best quality glass products are produced."
When he heard the master's instructions, the tone of his voice was urgent and solemn, and Butler Fukang felt a chill in his heart, and he immediately replied.
"Don't worry, sir, I will do it now."

In the afternoon of the next day, the housekeeper Fukang finally understood the situation of the glass jade and reported the information he had obtained to his master Gao Qiu.
"Sir, there are not many places to make glass jade in our Song Dynasty, but those with the best craftsmanship and quality are from Zichuan, which is under the jurisdiction of Qingzhou..."
"Zichuan, under the jurisdiction of Qingzhou, is Tokyo East Road..."
Gao Qiu stroked his long beard, and after thinking for a while, he picked up a pen in front of the desk and began to splash ink.
In a short time, I had already written a letter.
He asked Fukang to call for a scribe from the Shuai Mansion. After giving a few instructions, the scribe from the Shuai Mansion did not dare to neglect.
He respectfully accepted the letter written by Lieutenant Gao, and ran away after leaving the door.
Then a fast horse galloped straight out of Bianliang, Tokyo, and headed northeast...
After finishing his official duties during the day, Gao Qiu returned home happily. He saw his son Gao Zhang again and was about to show him that his father had done something big for him.
As a result, he saw his son Gao Zhang returning home still looking exhausted, and his wife Huang's face was filled with distress, and she urged Zhang'er not to ruin her health for the sake of the country.
Come on, the lady is in a bad mood, and Zhang'er is exhausted physically and mentally. There is no need to talk about these things just to make the lady unhappy.
It's better to wait until the big things are done and give Zhang'er a surprise later.

In the palace, Li Yan, the number two confidant of the official family, was walking into the room of Liang Shicheng, the number three confidant, with a face full of displeasure.
Seeing that this guy actually had the time to sit behind the desk and write furiously, he couldn't help but shout.
"At this time, you still have time to practice calligraphy?"
Liang Shicheng looked up and saw Li Yan striding into the room with a dark face. He quickly put down his pen and stood up to bow.
"Alas... if I don't practice calligraphy, what can I do?"
After hearing this, Li Yan felt even more angry. After sitting down, he slapped the table and groaned.
"I asked Lao Liang, what's going on? Why did Yang Da drive everyone away when this Gao Sheren came?
Even our brothers are not qualified to stay with the official family and serve them. Is it possible that between the official family and that Gao Sheren..."
"What happened between them?"
Liang Shicheng suddenly perked up and pricked up his ears to hear the judgment of his No. 2 confidant.
Even though Li Yan has a lot of muscles in his head, he still knows that if he says anything out loud, his end will be worse than death.
"Why, do we still need to make it clear?"
"That's not true, but speaking of it, the only son of Lieutenant Gao is indeed remarkable.
The Provincial Examination is for the Provincial Yuan, and the Palace Examination, with his copy of "Young China Fu", he became the number one scholar, which can be said to be a well-deserved success."
"If you think about it, since the official ascended the throne, whether in government or in the opposition, the reputation of the official has never been very good."
"Now there is such a child prodigy who is the only one who became the number one scholar at the age of eleven since the imperial examination."
"It would be really strange if the officials didn't show favor to them."
Li Yan snorted dissatisfiedly.
"Even if it's a favor, what can our family say? Is it necessary to kick you and me away?"
In order to guess the truth, the two great eunuchs squatted together and wept their hearts out, but they could not figure out why such changes occurred in the official family.
And Gao Zhang, who had gained another wave of favorability and proficiency, finally ended today's meeting with Master Hun Jun.
After bidding farewell to Zhao Ji, Gao Zhang saw that it was still early in the sky. Now he went to Miss Shishi's place. Maybe the Miss Shishi, who had reversed her work and rest time, was still catching up on her nap.
It is a very impolite behavior to disturb others' rest. After thinking about it, Gao Zhang felt that he should go and take a look at his junior brother Cai Laoliu, who had not been heard from since entering the palace.
I don’t know how he is doing while studying in the Secret Pavilion. After all, he has been studying there for a while.
Does the whole person become more educated? After all, whether a person is smart or not is directly proportional to the amount of knowledge he has learned and acquired.
When Gao Zhang arrived at the Secretary's Office, he grabbed an official who was passing by and asked about Cai Laoliu's whereabouts.
"A certain person is Gao Zhang, who lives in the living room. He came to the Secretary's Office today to meet my junior brother Cai Laoliu. Well, he is Cai Yao, the sixth son of Xiang Cai's family."
