I trade in both worlds

Chapter 342: Watching the Fountain

Xu Xu's dividends in recent years have all been exchanged for gold, and this time is no exception. Feng Jie directly sent a box of gold to Xu Xu's home.

Xu Xu stored all the gold in the warehouse of the modern workshop.

A few years ago, Xu Xu customized a container and made a hidden compartment with a safe inside and cloth piled outside.

After packing up the gold, Xu Xu sat in the corner of the warehouse, feeling a little depressed.

She didn't know why she had come to this point, nor did she know where to go in the future.

However, she knew that she could not sink into despair, because she had four children waiting for her at home. They were her driving force in life and her courage to persevere.

Xu Xu took a deep breath and tried to adjust her mood. She knew that no matter how big the difficulties were, she had to be strong and support the children.

She stood up, walked out of the warehouse and came to the yard. The sunlight sprinkled in the yard, but it seemed unable to dispel the haze in her heart.

Xu Xu sat in a corner of the yard, staring into the distance with empty eyes, his mind in a mess.

After an unknown amount of time, Xu Xu's eyes suddenly fell on a pile of discarded glass bottles, which were gleaming in the sun.

Her heart moved, and an idea flashed in her mind - making glass!

In modern society, glass is a very common item, but in ancient times, it was a scarce and precious material.

If she could master the glass-making technology and popularize it in ancient times, she would undoubtedly have found a new way to make money.

However, this time we can no longer cooperate with the Liu family. We have to cooperate with the government to pave the way for Xu Jin and others.

Thinking of this, Xu Xu felt a strong urge in her heart. She immediately started searching for glass making methods on the Internet.

She studied every piece of information carefully, recording everything from the selection of raw materials to the smelting process, from the molding techniques to the later processing.

She found that making glass is not an easy task. It requires precise temperature control, sophisticated operating skills and rich experience accumulation.

In the following days, Xu Xu began to collect the raw materials needed to make glass.

She directly purchased high-quality quartz sand, soda ash and other key raw materials from Hyundai as samples.

At the same time, she also began to study ancient furnaces and firing techniques, trying to find the most suitable equipment and methods for glassmaking.

Xu Xu recorded all the technical information and sighed, wishing that the Liu family had bought back her shares two months earlier.

This way she could discuss the glass-making matter with Xu Jin.

Alas, unknowingly, she was also relying on Xu Jin.

At this time, Xu Jin and others came to Qizhou.

The autumn wind is bleak, yellow leaves are flying, and the land of Qizhou in October has been quietly covered with a light layer of autumn frost.

The mountains in the distance are looming in the mist, like an elegant ink painting.

Qizhou has been a place longed for by literati and poets since ancient times, with mountains and rivers full of poetry.

It was dusk when we arrived in Qizhou. The setting sun slowly sank into the horizon like a fireball, casting the last rays of light on the ancient city walls, covering this ancient city with a splendid and mysterious veil.

The city gate is majestic, and there seem to be traces of time remaining between the cracks in the stones, telling of the past glory and vicissitudes.

Everyone stood outside the city gate, looking at the city that was about to be explored, their hearts filled with anticipation and curiosity.

Li Mufeng stood outside the city gate, looking into the distance, his heart full of anticipation: "I heard that Qizhou is known as the 'City of Springs'. I wonder if the uniqueness of this spring is as fascinating as described in the book?"

Xu Jin's eyes gleamed when he heard this. He turned to look at everyone and suggested, "I've also heard that the Baotu Spring here is famous all over the world. Its surging water and thunderous sound are the wonders of the world."

"How about we go and check it out tomorrow morning? Then we can see with our own eyes whether the name of this Spring City is worthy of its name."

In modern times, they have heard of the name of Baotu Spring countless times, but what they saw with their own eyes were just three inconspicuous small waves, which was very different from the spectacular scene described in the books.

Of course, this change may be related to factors such as groundwater levels, rainfall conditions, and human intervention.

However, in ancient times, Baotu Spring was famous for its vigorous gushing and water gushing out like a wheel. For example, Li Daoyuan recorded Baotu Spring in "Water Classic Notes": "The spring source is surging, and the water gushes out like a wheel."

At this moment, standing at the foot of Qizhou City in this time and space, their hearts were filled with anticipation and curiosity, wanting to witness the real Baotu Spring with their own eyes.

After hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.

Three small bubbles appeared in Xu Zhun's mind involuntarily. He hoped that he could see the real Baotu Spring this time: "I have long wanted to see the Baotu Spring with my own eyes. I heard that its water can spray several feet high. I wonder if it is true."

"We travel to broaden our horizons. Since Baotu Spring is one of Qizhou's major scenic spots, we certainly can't miss it." Xu Qiwei also nodded in agreement.

A few years ago, Xu Qiwei was still young and did not have a deep impression of Baotu Spring. He had forgotten it long ago. When Baotu Spring is mentioned now, he does not associate it with the spring he had seen before.

Chen Xingrui smiled and added: "Besides, I heard that Qizhou has many poems and inscriptions left by literati. Our trip can not only enjoy the scenery, but also appreciate the literature. It is really killing two birds with one stone."

Although Chen Xinghuan was not good at speaking, he showed an expression of approval.

After a good night's sleep, they were ready to go the next morning when the first ray of sunlight penetrated the mist and shone on the ancient stone road.

The four bodyguards also followed behind them in high spirits to ensure the safety of the group.

There was a bustling crowd beside Baotu Spring, but it could not cover up the roar of the gushing spring water.

When we arrived at Baotu Spring, we saw the crystal clear water, which looked like a huge piece of crystal embedded in the ground.

The three caves are connected simultaneously, gushing out boiling water, with columns of water rising into the sky and then slowly falling down, splashing layers of water. It is magnificent and spectacular.

Crowds gathered around the spring, marveling in amazement and enjoying this gift from nature.

Xu Jin and Xu Zhun looked at each other, their hearts filled with indescribable excitement.

They had imagined such a scene countless times, but they were still shocked when they actually saw it with their own eyes.

"This is completely different from what we have seen before. This is the real Baotu Spring." Xu Jin said softly to Xu Zhun.

Xu Zhun nodded, his eyes sparkling with excitement, and lowered his voice: "The modern Baotu Spring is completely different from this place."

"The water here is so turbulent, as if it contains infinite power and life."

"Do you have a camera? Take a picture and show it to your sister and Tiantian when you get back." Xu Jin suddenly asked.

Xu Zhun nodded: "I have it, it's inside my collar, I don't know if I can take a good picture of it."
