Transmigrated into a female county magistrate during a famine, leading her country to prosperity

Shen Zheng hadn't finished speaking yet.

"Feldspar fluxing is only one of the functions in ceramic firing."

Liang Fu didn't expect that Changshi had a "backup plan" and shouted anxiously: "What's the use? Lord Shen, I'm old now, don't beat around the bush!"

Yin Wencai said nothing, but just nodded continuously.

Shen Zheng paused, then continued, "Feldspar can make ceramics produce a glass phase. In simple terms, it can make the surface more transparent and beautiful, and it can be easier to shape during the firing process, reducing the failure rate."

"this......!"

Liang Fu just said one word, and Shen Zheng didn't give him a chance to be surprised, and continued: "It can also improve the hardness and wear resistance of ceramics. Ceramics fired with feldspar are not easy to crack under slight bumps."

Not easy to crack?!

You know, although porcelain at that time was not too expensive and people with better lives could afford it, because porcelain was delicate, people were extremely careful when using it.

Accidentally knocked off a corner of a porcelain bowl?

That's not just a matter of one corner! If a porcelain bowl has a small chip, it will crack along the corner in a few days until it breaks into pieces, leaving nothing behind...

Porcelain has become more durable, which is a good thing for ordinary people, but not for nobles of other countries!

Liang Fu's eyes rolled, and he divided the future ceramic firing into two parts: porcelain with feldspar added would be sold to his own people, and porcelain without feldspar would be sold to other countries as a rip-off!

Upon hearing that feldspar had so many uses, Yin Wencai's first reaction was no longer ecstasy, but rather heartache to the point where his breathing almost stopped.

——Although the price of ceramics is not high, the sales volume is always very large. If this is the case, will there not be enough feldspar in the county to sell?

"My heart aches..." He folded his hands and covered his chest, wanting to cry but unable to. "I dumped so much 'garbage', and today... it turned into treasure. How many kilograms of food must have been lost..."

One pound of grain is the unit of measurement that Yin Wencai uses to measure the value of goods.

When Liang Fu heard this, his heart ached. His face was filled with pain, and he asked Yin Wencai, "Where did it fall... I'll go pick it up..."

"Fall..." Yin Wencai sniffed, raised his finger tremblingly, pointed in a direction and said: "Some of it fell into the wasteland, and we can still pick it up..."

Liang Fuxin felt something was wrong and immediately asked, "What about the other part?"

Don’t fill up the river!

Yin Wencai's fingers slowly moved, and finally stopped in one direction. He cried out, "The dam is a little loose, and it fell over to fill the dam!"

It really filled up the river!

When Liang Fu heard this, he felt his eyes go dark and he let out a "wow" along with Yin Wencai.

What a stupid thing he had done! Damn him, damn him!

In front of Shen Zheng, the two of them actually hugged each other and burst into tears. This scene was simply - anyone who listened to it was sad, and anyone who heard it cried!

Shen Zheng couldn't bear it any longer, and covered her forehead to comfort them: "There is no small feldspar mine, there are many more buried in the ground. Please cry slowly, or you will faint from crying, and I won't know who to send to the hospital first..."

What a vicious curse!

The two of them stopped crying with a "hiccup" and the only sounds in the study were the sobbing.

Shen Zheng clapped her hands upon seeing this and stood up: "Let's go, it's time for us to go see the treasures in Baiyun County."

"Right, right, right!" Yin Wencai raised his sleeve to wipe his snot, then stood up. "We need to fence that place off, and we can't let the people dig at will!"

He was stunned when he said this, and a new feeling of sadness surged in his heart.

——There are livestock pens in people’s homes, which are surrounded by feldspar!

Wuwuwu——

......

Many people gathered near the Baiyun County Government Office, just to see Shen Zheng's true face with their own eyes.

Their reason is very simple - after seeing the real Lord Shen, they will never be fooled by fakes again.

Shen Zheng had the same idea, so she pulled up the carriage curtains and window curtains. She greeted the people as long as the carriage traveled.

"Hello you guys!"

"I am Shen Zheng, I am Shen Zheng, the magistrate of Tongan County."

"Yes, yes, absolutely genuine. Look, your Lord Yin is sitting here. Lord Yin, come and say a few words to the people!"

This was Shen Zheng's second time proving her identity, but the feeling this time was completely different from the last time.

Yin Wencai, with his two walnut eyes, kept flattering Shen Zheng: "This is the real Lord Shen, the Lord Shen who gave us the rice seeds. Look carefully..."

The people on both sides also cooperated very well, and some even took charcoal and drew a small portrait of Shen Zheng on the scraps of cloth.

They stood close to each other, their voices neither too loud nor too soft: "We must not be deceived in the future. The fake Lord Shen is too different from the real Lord Shen. Do you understand what I mean?"

"Why don't you understand? It's just what I thought!"

"Then tell me, what is the difference between the real and fake Lord Shen?"

The person being asked scratched his head and said, "I can't explain it, but it's just different at first glance. It's not that those fake Lord Shens are so ugly, but it's just... they give me a different feeling."

Now that I think about it, the smiles of those "fake" Lord Shens were weird. To put it bluntly, they were just smiling on the outside but not on the inside.

But they didn't find it strange at that time - how powerful and noble was Lord Shen? It was their blessing that he could look at them straight in the eye, not to mention smiling at them falsely.

But it was not until today that they suddenly realized that the real Lord Shen’s smile went straight to his eyes and even to his heart.

It may sound a bit hypocritical, but when they see her smile, they always feel that the whistling cold wind...is not so cold anymore.

But Liang Fu, who faced Shen Zheng's smile, didn't think so.

He was shivering in the whistling cold wind, sniffing his nose and asking Shen Zheng: "How long will it take to take it down? I feel like I'm going to catch a cold... Ah, cut it - OK, no need to take it down, I guess it's already cold."

Shen Zheng was still waving her arms wildly, and without turning her head, she said, "There is a small blanket under the mat, you can use it to block the wind for now."

Liang Fu: "Thank you, living king of hell."

......

The permanent population of Baiyun County is almost the same as that of Tongan County, but its territory is much larger than that of Tongan County.

Although Shen Zheng was greeting people along the way, the county government office was quite far from the feldspar mine, and the carriage took more than half an hour to arrive.

The carriage stopped not far from the mine. Yin Wencai jumped off the carriage first and said to Shen Zheng and the others, "My Lords, there are many gravels ahead, so it's hard for the carriage to move. Let's get off and walk over there, and warm ourselves up at the same time."

Liang Fu was the first to nod in agreement when he heard this—he almost froze to death!
