Chapter 278 Three foreign monks fell from the sky 4

Chapter 278 Three foreign monks fell from the sky 4

Seeing Clinton staring at the West in a daze, I couldn't wake him up, so I slowly started drinking tea.

I am very confident that he will not refuse my conditions, nor can he refuse them. For them, their Father is everything to them, in order to spread the so-called Father's glory throughout every inch of people's corners. The church represents the sacredness in their hearts. Now that there is such a good condition before them, I believe they will not refuse.

However, Bush and Washington obviously did not have the patience of me. Seeing Clinton alone looking at Hope and not speaking, and they couldn't understand our conversation just now, they couldn't help but feel a little anxious, so Washington spoke at him.

Clinton had just come back to his senses, and excitedly conveyed my words to the two of them. The two of them, who were originally confused, suddenly showed a fanatical color in their eyes, and they looked at me with their eyes, as if the greedy man saw a lot of gold. But I guess I am much cuteer than that gold in their eyes now.

Bush, Jr., was obviously a little impatient. After hearing Clinton's words, he immediately stood up and sang birds at me, which made me look confused, but I guess his words should be thankful for my content.

Seeing that I was confused, Clinton immediately explained: "He means thanking the general for his generosity! God of Father will bless you."

I nodded and smiled, "What do you mean by agreeing to me?"

Clinton nodded and said, "We really have no way to refuse the conditions of Your Excellency General. So we discussed it and agreed with you."

"Okay!" I stood up suddenly and said, "It's a great honor for you to flow down! I hope our cooperation is pleasant!"

Clinton and the other three also stood up and saluted me.

Although the promise of the three of them was as expected, I was very happy that they could say it personally. To me, the three of them are a baby!

It was getting late now, so I arranged for them to have dinner at the General's Mansion. The few of them were obviously very interested in oriental food. They were busy consuming their hard work on the table. Except for Clinton, who knew the language of the Great Zhou, who occasionally chatted with me, the other two people devoted all their energy to the food on the table.

I also called Feixue during lunch. After all, among my three wives, she is the oldest. Although the three of them are not of different sizes, Feixue is the eldest of the three women in secret. So it is best for her to come forward in this situation.

In the afternoon, I originally arranged for three people to rest. After all, after the Grand Zhou Dynasty, the three people did not have a good rest. But to my surprise, the three people were not satisfied with my arrangement. Instead, they did not care about their fatigue and were busy looking for any raw materials for producing glass near the capital. After all, they had to produce glass, and this raw material was very important.

There was no other way, so I could only send a few people to follow them, and at the same time I couldn't help but sigh that under the guidance of their Father God, their motivation was really extraordinary, and they were almost desperate.

Feixue and I watched the three of us leave the gate, and called our servants to the distribution of the Chamber of Commerce in the capital, intending to place these three people in the branch. I am not very relieved to arrange them outside. The general's mansion is relatively small now, and there are almost no empty rooms since Lin Qian and his daughter moved in. In addition, these three people come from different countries and do not understand many taboos in the Zhou Dynasty. In the Dazhou, this backyard and the place where the family lives, outsiders are generally not allowed to go in. Instead of letting me stare at them all day and reminding them to pay attention to this and that, it is better to put them in a place where I feel at ease. None of the branches of the Chamber of Commerce are ideal places.

After everything was arranged, I saw that it was very early, so I hugged Feixue and walked towards the study.

Feixue struggled a few times, but she didn't break free, so she could only let me hug her, and then asked, "Why do you attach so much importance to these three foreign countries?"

I said mysteriously: "This has to start with what they brought! Let's take you to see some things! And these are the reasons why I try to keep them there!"

As Feixue was doubtful, I took her to the study, and the box brought by Clinton and the other two were lying quietly at the desk.

I opened the box, took out a few pieces of glassware and placed it on the table, and pointed at me, "That's why I left them!"

"this?"

Feixue picked up one of the teapots and looked carefully. The glass was crystal clear.

“So beautiful!”

Feixue exclaimed, and then asked, "What is this called?"

I smiled slightly and said, "This is called glass, and those three people have mastered the production method of this kind of thing, and that's why I left them!"

She was slightly stunned and asked in confusion: "Do you want them to produce teapots for the Chamber of Commerce?" She didn't hold the teapot in front of me while she was talking.

I shook my head and smiled, "No! Producing these teapots is just a small aspect, and for a greater purpose, I want to use them on the houses we build!"

house?

Feixue was a little confused, obviously not understanding what I was talking about.

So I walked to the window, pointed to the window and asked, "What would happen if we didn't open the window now?"

"It's very dark!"

Feixue answered honestly.

I continued to ask, "Why is it black?"

Feixue burst out laughing and said, "I thought you were very smart. It turns out that you are still enough. If paper is covered with paper on the window, of course it will be black..." After she finished speaking, she suddenly realized it and said, "Are you talking about replacing the paper on the window with glass?"

I couldn't help but applaud and smiled, "Smart! This is my use! As long as the molds for producing glass are used to flat, we can make flat glass pieces. In this way, as long as we make some improvements on the windows, we can completely replace paper with glass. Even if we close the windows, as long as the outside is bright enough, the room will not turn dark because of closing the windows! Even in winter, we can close the windows and live without worrying that the room is not bright enough. Moreover, the counter of our chamber of commerce can also use glass, so that customers can see what we bought through the glass, and we don't need to take it out one by one, which is much more convenient!"

Feixue was stunned when she heard this, then carefully looked at the transparent teapot in her hand, and asked, "Are you afraid of glass?"

I laughed, walked over, picked up a transparent wine glass, and said, "You don't have to have any problems with this thing, even if you put it in water for a hundred years."

"real?"

Feixue showed joy on her face.

"But..." I sighed slightly and said, "The biggest problem is that it is easy to break. So be very careful when manufacturing and installing, and its fragments are sharp, and it will hurt people if you are not careful!"

In modern society, with the use of high-tech, many special glasses have solved the above problems. However, in the current Dazhou, although there are three foreigners who know how to produce glass technology, it is still unknown whether ordinary glass can be produced now, let alone special glass.

So I don’t force any special glass now. As long as I produce ordinary glass, I am Amitabha Buddha. Thank God.

Thinking of this, a hint of dismay appeared on my face and said, "Now I have to ask God for blessings. I hope there are raw materials for producing glass in this capital. Otherwise, I can only use a lot of manpower to dig three feet into the Dazhou area and find it."

Feixue heard me say this and asked, "Is this glass so important?"

I sighed: Feixue doesn't understand the other uses of glass, but I know that in addition to its uses in architecture, it also has many military uses. The biggest thing is that it can be made into a telescope. If you see far, you can know the enemy's movements earlier. You must predict the enemy's initiative when winning the battle! But I only consider the other uses of my glass for the time being, mainly in architecture.

If cement allowed the Chamber of Commerce to rise rapidly, glass would become the Chamber of Commerce's dominant position in the construction industry. A series of things that seem fantastic to the Great Zhou Dynasty will be presented to the world one after another because of the emergence of glass.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel fascinated! In the West, many Goethe-style churches use stained glass instead of walls, making this church gorgeous and solemn, just like St. Peter's Basilica. In Dazhou, as long as glass can be produced, I will show such a miracle on the land of Dazhou.

So, regarding Feixue’s question, I replied: “Now the Chamber of Commerce ranks third in the entire Great Zhou. With glass, I can guarantee that the Chamber of Commerce can quickly surpass the other two companies and become the real number one in the Great Zhou!”

First!

Even when he is indifferent to fame and fortune, the whole poem still has an irresistible charm.

So do me!

Although I don’t really like this first place in my heart, I still can’t get rid of its temptation, especially now that I have this opportunity to make the Chamber of Commerce first, how could I let it go?

So in my heart, I couldn't help but feel a little excited. After all, I am a construction worker, even if I am a third-rank official in the court now. But fame and fortune are all empty. After decades or hundreds of years, who will remember you? But if you presided over the construction of a famous building, even if it was a thousand years, people can still remember your name, just like the famous architect and sculptor Phidias at the time who was carved and decorated by the Parthenon Temple.

Who doesn’t want their name to be passed down through the ages?

So do me!
Chapter completed!
