"I don't know who do you want your son-in-law to teach you again?" He scratched his chin and looked at Uncle Li with his eyes. Uncle Li smiled and his expression was a little despicable: "Honglu Temple and the Master and Guest Office."

I was slightly stunned: "Father-in-law, why did you have such an idea?" This made me feel relieved. Not to mention anything else, the guys from Honglu Temple and the host and guest office have been taught a lesson by me. At least Liu Hao and He Zheng are getting thicker and thicker, and they have already vaguely become successful businessmen. If you educate them for a while, you may be able to become a successful diplomat.

"...I know that a good son-in-law is a complete talent, but I will never let you get tired alive. But if you don't need you, where can I find someone who can make a fortune when you negotiate with diplomacy like you?" Uncle Li licked his mouth and said. His eyes were a little greedy, and his appearance reminded me of the hungry man in the pot while eating a bowl and looking at the pot. However, Uncle Li's idea is indeed very good, and it is a career worthy of my dedication to my time and wisdom.

"I know that you will definitely succeed when you take action, but I can't let you work hard all day long and drag your body down for me, Datang. So, I thought of this way, let you teach your experience to these people, so that I can at least not suffer any more in the foreign affairs."

"Since my father-in-law is destined, even if my son-in-law has tried his best, he will do this for my father-in-law. Please rest assured. My son-in-law will teach the son-in-law what he has learned from his heart to all the officials of the Honglu Temple and the host and guest office." I respectfully expressed my willingness to contribute my strength to the country to the country.

"Okay! Hahaha, this is my husband's son-in-law." Uncle Li nodded with relief and pointed at me and said, "I have a question. What kind of person does the son-in-law think have done this diplomatic matter just now?"

"This..." I blinked, forgot it, but decided to confess to Uncle Li. "In fact, the most important point is that in terms of political thought, I love my land of China, be absolutely loyal to Your Majesty and the Tang Dynasty, be able to resist material and spiritual temptations, and be absolutely confidential about all information that needs to be confidential, and be in line with our negotiation bottom line. In addition, not only should I be quick-witted, but also have a mouth full of sharp teeth, who can speak eloquence. The most important point is that I can only put benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, and trust in the surface, and from the bones. Everything is based on the interests of the Tang Empire..." I don't know how to explain to Uncle Li in detail. To put it bluntly, being able to coax the birds from under the tree to squat in the cage is the most basic requirement. Shamelessness is necessary, being able to sell the other party, and the other party can also count the money for us happily for me, so that I can be considered a truly qualified diplomat.

If you can coax and deceive, you will not only have to be thick-skinned, but also learn to be shameless. However, you must be able to show off your benevolence, righteousness, courtesy and trust at any time and disguise your own face. In fact, it is just a matter of thick-tongued subjects.

When we walked out of the palace, the sun was shining on the earth in the early morning. At this time, the Zhuque Gate was wide open, and a team of national flag guards were marching solemnly and politely, walking out of the Zhuque Gate. Behind it was a military band. There were already many crowds of people watching the fun around Zhuque Square.

Many of them are vendors from all over the world. Most of them have arrived in Chang'an for the first time. After hearing the national flag-raising ceremony of the Tang Dynasty, they came to see something new. However, there are also many retired soldiers from the Tang Dynasty. They are almost a must-visit every day. Some literati also like to see the national flag-raising ceremony, as if this has become a new landscape in Chang'an, the imperial capital of the Tang Dynasty.

But today, I had something more important to do. I rode my horse to a workshop dozens of miles away from Chang'an. It was a very hidden place. It was just on the bank of the river outside the Fengyidizhuang of the Fang family. A small courtyard belonging to the Fang family. When I arrived in front of the door, several people immediately fell on me and the two loyal servants.

However, after seeing my face clearly, these people bowed from afar and continued to do their own things. "These are all sent by the third lady to guard the glass workshop." Fang Cheng next to him came forward to explain.

"Well, okay, I'll rest assured to do my business, Mrs. Third Lady." I nodded and asked Fang Cheng to knock on the yard. Soon, a small window was opened on the door. After seeing that it was Fang Cheng, the door was opened. The person inside was my personal soldiers. "Brother Fang, you are here. Please come in quickly." The personal soldiers with a sword on their waists then let us walk into the courtyard.

There were not many people inside, only about twenty craftsmen, but more than thirty guards were patrolling inside. On the other side, on the other side, there were a few people fiddling with crystal clear vessels. You don’t need to guess that was glass products. After nearly two years of hard work and a lot of capital investment, we finally successfully made glass of good quality. This is why I came here.

But today I came here mainly for the door and window facilities of my new yard. I don’t like to cover the windows, glass is what I need the most.

"I've seen the young master." The Persian led by the leader bowed to me in a Guanzhong accent like a rice-like Guanzhong accent. This guy was taken hostage by the Jinzouyuan and later fell into my hands. However, after a long period of ideological education, he already understood his situation. The salary I gave him every month was much higher than that he had worked for others. Moreover, he was proud of being a Tang Dynasty man and made his due contribution to the development and research of Tang Dynasty glass products. At least, with his assistance, we have obtained relatively pure glass.

Well, although it cannot reach the purity of glass in later generations, the transparency and authenticity have completely met my requirements. At least I dare to guarantee that the lens clarity of the telescope made with the glass produced now has even exceeded that of the lenses ground with crystals.

Importantly, the glass we produce does not have bubbles. This secret recipe that the Venetians have preserved for hundreds of years in later history is not worth mentioning in my eyes.

As their production level continues to improve, the glass blowing technology is becoming more and more proficient. Now the yield rate has reached 45% of 10, which is a very good success rate. However, so far, a piece of glassware has not been lost because I am not very satisfied with the current level of craftsmanship. Now several old jewelry craftsmen are studying polishing and painting on glass. At present, they are still under experimentation. What I need is an opportunity. After at least several types of glass products, I will personally present it to Uncle Li, asking this old hooligan to advertise for me and then sell it.

As for the flat glass needed for mirror making, I don’t know how to make it. However, if you use a native method, you can still get flat glass. That is, blow the glass onto a flat stone slab and then quickly crush it with a very round stone rod. In this way, you can obtain flat glass at least about a few feet square before the glass cools down. Well, this method is the method I used at home since I was a child. It is still applicable to the glass.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－-

Although the yield rate of flat glass obtained in this way is not high, only ten pieces of glass can be completely flat, and the others need to be cut according to the size of the plane. However, at least there is no need to worry about the raw materials used to make mirrors.

As a mirror, except for me, only my third wife, the palace maid and sister know the formula. Don’t even think about it. Because it needs to be kept confidential, I came today just to check the progress. In addition, I pulled a cart of flat glass home to test it as a glass mirror.

The room in my yard that was used as a steaming wine room was still empty and very large, just suitable for this. Bonalljin and Fang Cheng were naturally the materials to start. Dozens of flat glass were placed on the ground, and there was a passage for people to walk in the middle. The ground had been re-made with cement. The knocked tin foil was carefully placed on the flatbed one by one and I then rolled it gently and slowly, allowing the tin foil to be pressed against the surface of the glass. Then, I signaled that Fang Cheng brought the iron kettle with mercury. At this time, I had already put on a mask, and even Fang Cheng and Bonalljin also blocked their mouths and noses with masks.

After the processing, I checked it, then exited the room and locked the door. "Junlang, come back to the house and rest." The palace maid sister was waiting outside the door. I didn't allow her to go in because I didn't want patients with mercury poisoning at home. Although I had a mask, I didn't want my women to take risks. And I, Fang Cheng and Bornarjin are all tough men, and their resistance and metabolic power are much stronger than delicate beauties like the palace maid sister.
