Concubine Rong rarely reached out her hand: "Let me see?"
See what my son has written?
His Majesty the Emperor had no choice but to give the letter to Concubine Rong.
Concubine Rong opened the letter.
The letter was written by Qi Yunxiao. It started with greetings for the health of the two elders, and then explained the current situation of his group.
It is said that Shen Qingyu was not happy when she was pregnant with the child, that he was very good at eating, and that he and his three children were also very good...
Of course, he didn't say anything about finding iron ore. He only said that he was firing colored glaze. This colored glaze piece could be fixed on the window frame with wood, so that the room could be kept warm and bright.
Because the ship is too far away and the waves are too big, I am afraid that it will be damaged due to the shaking, so I cannot install many at a time. Your Majesty and your empress can make windows for one or two rooms first.
Qi Yunxiao also said that he raised many sea ducks on the island, and now he couldn't eat all the sea duck eggs, so he made salted duck eggs.
What can be used to make this salted duck egg more delicious? If you think the egg white is too salty, you can skip the egg white, or give it to someone below to eat with porridge...
At the back of the letter, there are several recipes for making delicacies using salted duck eggs.
Coconut oil soap is also ready, the color is very special light yellow, this is very good for washing hands and bathing...
Of course, these are all written by Shen Qingyu.
Looking at these baskets of things, Concubine Rong burst into tears and stared at His Majesty the Emperor with red eyes: "It's all your fault!"
The beauty was in tears, and His Majesty the Emperor was also distressed. He hurriedly waved his hands to drive everyone out, while reflecting on himself: "It's all my fault! It's all my fault..." I don't claim to be myself anymore.
After finally coaxing Concubine Rong to stop crying, Concubine Rong looked at each piece of glass that was wrapped firmly and asked His Majesty the Emperor: "Which palace is more suitable for using these glass pieces?"
His Majesty the Emperor thought for a moment: "I'll ask someone to calculate how many windows are enough?"
The craftsman came over quickly, carefully checked and screened, and reported a number: "It can be used for the colored glaze of two halls."
His Majesty the Emperor immediately decided: "Then let's use Concubine Rong's bedroom first, and then change the windows of the Imperial Study Room!"
The craftsman seemed to have long been accustomed to His Majesty's habit of keeping close contact with Concubine Rong, and he respectfully agreed to go on.
Crystal clear glass can actually be used as a window?
For a time, all the concubines and maids in the harem came to Concubine Rong's bedroom to see the strange things.
In the previous dynasty, when the glazed windows of the imperial study room were installed, the imperial study room suddenly became much brighter, which shocked the civil servants and generals who came to report and discuss state affairs!
This thing can actually be used like this?
Isn’t this too luxurious?!
So the ministers who were close to him asked in a playful manner: "Your Majesty, this glazed window is so bright! The light in this imperial study is so good!"
His Majesty the Emperor proudly raised his chin: "That's natural! Master Qi Yunxiao sent this back to me by ship overseas! It's very rare!"
The minister then began to flatter him like crazy: "Ah! This Lord Qi is a sensible man. Even though everyone has left Da Qi, he is still thinking about His Majesty..."
His Majesty the Emperor nodded proudly: "That's natural!"
He is also his father!
How could he not be filial?!
As soon as the ministers returned home, they began to ask people to see if there were still such transparent glass pieces for sale outside.
If we could get a room with glazed windows, that would make everyone envious!
This is a symbol of identity and strength!
After asking around, I found out that there were no glass tablets on the market for the time being, but Yuji's grocery store said that they would have glass tablets for sale in another month.
Of course, the price will be relatively expensive, a small piece costs three taels of silver.
After all, this thing is an imported product, and if it breaks down on the road, it’s very rare.
After all, "glass is fragile"!
When the ministers heard this, they gritted their teeth and said, "Buy!" It's not like we don't have the strength.
No matter how bad it is, we can still afford it in a study room.
The shopkeeper of Yuji said: Since the quantity is limited after all, those with advance payment will be given priority. As soon as the goods arrive, they can come and pick them up directly.
Ministers: Pay the money!
In less than three days, Jingcheng Yuji's grocery store received an advance payment of tens of thousands taels, which scared several shopkeepers!
God, what if there are not so many glass pieces coming by then?
Qi Yunxiao from Liulicongfang here was preparing to return to Jingluo Island when he received the letter. After reading the quantity in the letter, Qi Yunxiao also laughed out loud.
"It's really good. I've received tens of thousands of taels of money in advance. I've recently taken the time to make glass sheets for the windows. Once they're done, they'll be packaged as soon as possible and sent to Daqi's Jingcheng Yuji."
This is just the beginning. After it is fully rolled out, if the wealthy people in Daqi cannot afford to install one or two glazed windows in their homes, it will be a sign of insufficient strength.
When the time comes, money will naturally come rolling in!
Qi Yunxiao asked the people left in the capital to purchase the supplies needed for Liuli Island in advance, and brought them there in large quantities, then replaced them with glass products, and brought coconut oil soap over...
In this way, people on Liuli Island and nearby islands can use cloth, rice, oil, groceries and other items to pay for their wages.
The guys who drove the ship for Shen Zhongyi also didn't expect that since their master recognized his daughter and son-in-law, they no longer had to wander around in the sea to do business. They only had to take fixed routes, and they would do it every time. Not empty, full.
In the past, they had to spend energy to buy according to the list, and even have to negotiate business with others... Now it's better, they have completely become a boatman! Just pull the goods!
After confirming that the daily production and operation of Liuli Island had entered a virtuous cycle, Qi Yunxiao set off back to Whale Island.
However, more than two months later, when the ship docked and Shen Qingyu was waiting at the dock after receiving the news, Qi Yunxiao still became excited.
He strode off the boat, hugged the little lady, and whispered in her ear: "Madam, I miss you."
Shen Qingyu patted his shoulder: "Check it out, your hoop is too tight! I can't breathe!"
Qi Yunxiao quickly let go, and then he noticed that Shen Qingyu's belly was already sticking out.
Qi Yunxiao was shocked: "Why is it so big? Wasn't it just over three months?"
Why does it look like it's six or seven months old?
Shen Qingyu sighed: "I guess they are twins."
Erbao, who came with her mother to pick up her father, also interjected: "Yes, father, they are younger siblings!"
Okay! Two more were added at once.
Qi Yunxiao was not surprised as expected. Instead, he asked with some worry: "Can this... be born?"
No wonder Qi Yunxiao is worried, women these days have children purely relying on destiny, without technology, it’s all hard work!
There are many mothers who are pregnant with twins who cannot keep both their mother and their baby because they cannot give birth to their children...
