"You'll still have to work hard over there in Jingzhou and Xiazhou."
"Yes, I will leave tomorrow."
Song Yang received the news that the three states had taken refuge and immediately held an emergency meeting.
The final decision was to let Fang Zhe make a trip to Jingzhou and Xiazhou.
Langzhou was handed over to Chen Lin.
These three states took refuge late, and Song Yang would not force them on some matters.
For example, forming a revival army and dividing territories.
And Song Yang doesn't plan to care about them too much, as long as they can take care of themselves.
Give them full autonomy, join the alliance in name only, and do the rest slowly.
Anyway, as long as it doesn't cause chaos, it's easy to talk about anything.
Fang Zhe's main purpose of this trip was to investigate the basic situation of the three states.
Including population, military strength, supplies, etc.
Now that you have joined the alliance, you need to take advantage of it. Many resources can be traded or shared.
Fang Zhe knew what Jiangzhou needed and what the three states could use, so it was appropriate for him to go.
After chatting with Fang Zhe about some things, he announced the adjournment of the meeting.
It is still the Spring Festival, and on the tenth day of the first lunar month, everyone has nothing to do.
Song Yang strolled to the glass testing site.
Tong Qian and Shen Xiaowan were quite positive and came to help when nothing happened.
It’s not just about getting started, it’s about seeing what’s missing and they’ll run errands to get it.
"Your Majesty, take a look, this was just baked today."
Gongsun Mo carefully brought a glass bowl over and showed it to Song Yang.
It looks much better than before. Although it is still colorful, the white part is obviously much larger.
Basically, it can be opened 50-50 times.
"It's good this time..."
Song Yang took the glass bowl and was about to praise him.
"Click..."
There was a crisp sound from the glass bowl.
"Crack!"
Leaving a gap, it was broken directly along the gap, and most of the broken part was smashed directly...
"This..." Gongsun Mo scratched his head in embarrassment.
"Haha! It doesn't matter! It's an experiment! Take your time, don't worry!" Song Yang smiled.
"Don't tell me, this time is really good. Look at these pieces of glass, how translucent they are!"
Song Yang smiled and picked up some larger broken glass.
"I've finally found some skills, and sooner or later I'll be able to burn the glass that the prince needs!" Gongsun Mo finally regained some confidence.
"Your Majesty, we have made many improvements recently. Look, this is the transparent glass we collected."
Shen Xiaowan handed over a small cloth bag, which was filled with glass fragments.
Song Yang wanted to make strong and durable transparent glass, but the two girls picked up the colorful ones.
I also collected the remaining transparent ones to see if there was any possibility of recycling them in the future.
Song Yang took the bag and picked up a few larger pieces of transparent glass.
The largest piece is as big as a palm.
"It's pretty good for its size."
Song Yang broke it hard, but the glass didn't break.
"The hardness is not bad!" Song Yang nodded with satisfaction.
"This piece was fired yesterday. The recipe has been recorded. I made adjustments today, but it seems that the adjustment was wrong somewhere." Gongsun Mo looked at the piece of glass and said.
The current experimental method is to record the material formula and firing process every time it is fired.
Then look at the results and make fine adjustments.
Although the progress is slow, the effect is obvious.
Song Yang held the glass piece in his hand and was about to praise Gongsun Mo, but suddenly frowned and looked at the glass piece.
Song Yang saw Tong Qian's stretched fingers through the glass.
"Huh?" Song Yang seemed to have thought of something.
He held the piece of glass to compare and looked at everyone.
"My lord, what's wrong with you?" Tong Qian knew that Song Yang must have discovered something novel.
It's different after sleeping with him. You can understand it just by looking at Song Yang's reaction...
"What difference does it make when you look at the fast glass?"
"different?"
"It's like looking at people through lenses. Are they a little deformed?"
"Has it gotten bigger?"
Several people studied it and finally came to this conclusion.
"That's right! Haha! I accidentally made a convex lens!"
"Convex lens?"
"Blacksmith Xiao Wang, go find some pieces of iron for me." Song Yang ordered.
Wang Muyue, who was silent on the side, immediately agreed, turned around and walked to the warehouse.
There are iron sheets here in the glass laboratory.
Wang Muyue brought several of different sizes over.
Song Yang looked at everyone and said, "I want to make something fun."
With that said, Song Yang began to pick through the transparent glass bag and quickly found a glass piece of the right size.
Then roll the two pieces of iron sheet into a bucket.
Then he measured the size of the tin bucket and began to file the glass with a file.
No one knows what Song Yang is going to do.
I can only watch quietly.
Song Yang filed the glass for an hour and polished out two round glass pieces.
Put the glass pieces into the iron bucket, pinch the iron bucket tightly with your hands, and pinch out the lines to fix the glass in the iron bucket.
After the two pieces of glass are installed, insert the tin bucket object.
Adjust the size of the tin bucket by hand to make it fit tightly and stretch freely.
Only Song Yang can do this job. His body is different from ordinary people. There is no difference between squeezing iron sheets with bare hands and squeezing mud...
After working hard for another half an hour, I finally made this thing.
Monocular telescope!
Song Yang put the monocular in front of his eyes and looked into the distance.
"Haha! It's done!"
This thing has no technical content and can be made once the lenses are ground.
Song Yang chose two lenses that are closest to convex lenses for processing, saving time and effort.
"What is this for?" Shen Xiaowan asked curiously.
"It must be for seeing. You see, the prince is comparing his eyes." Tong Qian said.
"Could it be a demon mirror!" Gongsun Mo had the most imaginative ideas...
"This thing is called a single-channel telescope. It can see things very far away. Try it." Song Yang handed the telescope to Gongsun Mo.
Gongsun Mo took the telescope, and Song Yang taught him how to use it.
The old man put the telescope in front of his eyes, and Song Yang taught him to adjust the focus.
Immediately I saw a bird on a tree thirty steps away.
Gongsun Mo's eyesight was normal, and his eyesight became even weaker as he got older.
You would never be able to see that bird without a telescope.
"This...this..." Gongsun Mo only glanced at it and immediately became excited.
It really works!
"Your Majesty! This thing is so amazing!" Gongsun Mo said excitedly.
"Yes! It is widely used, especially for detecting enemy situations!" Song Yang said with a smile.
With the monocular telescope, artillery applications can reach a new level.
"Let me see!"
"Let me see!"
The two girls fought over the telescope.
Gongsun Mo was busy handing the telescope to Song Yang.
Song Yang turned around silently: "Well, you guys can play. I am tired and want to sit down for a while."
He didn't even pick up the telescope, and both girls grabbed it, giving it to the one who gave it first. Of course, such a rare problem had to be solved by Gongsun Mo.
Gongsun Mo was speechless for a while and could only hand the binoculars to the girl Tong Qian on his right...
