Chapter 184: Disaster and Troubled Times, Rat Infestation
In less than half a day, several people had completed the tasks assigned by Chen Changfan. This execution can be said to be very fast.
"Boss, according to the blueprint you gave me, the annealing furnace has been built, but it seems to be just a small furnace. What is the purpose of it?"
Bricklayer Hu was puzzled.
"What do you know? Annealing is a crucial step. Look," Chen Changfan gently squeezed the glass disc in his hand, and the glass disc immediately broke into several pieces, scaring everyone.
"If this glass is not annealed, it will be as fragile as paper. If it is annealed, it will be many times stronger. Do you understand?"
Everyone nodded with some half-understanding, and once again marveled at the host's erudition.
"Alright, start the furnace! Let's try to make a piece of finished glass this time."
Chen Changfan silently perfected the technique of [firing glass], and his confidence increased greatly.
Preheat the oven.
Green body sintering.
Foaming, foam stabilization, annealing...
After a series of operations, a piece of transparent green glass lay quietly in front of everyone.
For a moment, everyone present was stunned.
They stared with wide eyes of curiosity, looking at the piece of glass that looked like a beautiful jade.
Yunniang was a bit bolder and reached out to touch the surface of the glass. "It's as smooth as a mirror. I feel like I can even see my reflection in it!"
Ding Yurong couldn't hide her excitement. "If we use this kind of material to build a roof, the sunlight will be largely unobstructed, so growing vegetables will be absolutely no problem!"
Hu the bricklayer couldn't help but exclaim in amazement, "This glass looks clean and bright. If we replace the window paper with this, the whole room will be brighter."
Chen Changfan felt that such a finished product could only be considered barely passing. If materials such as borax could be added, the clarity of the glass could probably be improved to a higher level.
"Yunniang, you, Shi Jian, and Lao Qiao need to continue collecting these materials. If you're short on manpower, you can ask Shen Wanwu to coordinate. Also, check if there's any hot springs in the Qingshan Mountains."
If he remembered correctly, the book had recorded that some borax might come from hot spring deposits. If it could be found, that would be the best. If not, it would not affect the glassmaking process.
"Mr. Hu, you are in charge of the progress of the glass production and the construction of the greenhouse. You must complete the greenhouse by the end of the month. The construction of the sled must also be completed by the end of the month."
Bricklayer Hu silently estimated the construction period. The time was still quite tight, but since the boss had given the order, he had to complete it even if he had to work day and night.
As for why it was completed by the end of the month, Chen Changfan did not tell anyone.
Because according to Turtle Shell's prediction, it will snow at the end of the month.
This blizzard will last for more than a month.
This time, I don’t know how many people will be affected and die.
In the face of natural disasters, there is not much he can do. At that time, it will be very difficult to protect the people in this village.
"I hope that the villa can still operate normally by then. While other forces are fighting against the natural disaster, I can secretly develop a wave here."
……
Qingshan County, official warehouse.
Shen Wanwu personally led the team to the government warehouse to collect grain.
After seeing Cheng Weimin's approval, the official in charge of the granary was still reluctant to open the warehouse.
Shen Wanwu waved his hand, and more than a dozen burly men jumped out of the carriage, scaring the clerk so much that he almost wet his pants.
"No need for you gentlemen to do anything, I'll just open the warehouse."
This official still had some conscience. He could open the warehouse with the approval, but he still stuck to the bottom line.
However, under the threat of force, the bottom line was quickly broken.
After 2000 kilograms of grain were moved away, there was still a lot of grain in the government warehouse.
Shen Wanwu looked at the frightened eyes of the officials and knew that it would not be a big problem if he emptied all the granaries at this time.
But now there is a problem before him.
Should I move all the food out directly, or just take 2000 kilograms and leave?
However, the boss has not explained this issue before. How should I deal with it?
He carefully recalled what his boss said before he went down the mountain, and suddenly a glimmer of enlightenment flashed in his eyes.
"Old Shen, please bring a few more carriages. What if they can't hold all the space?"
He didn't take it seriously at the time and replied with a smile, "Two thousand kilograms of grain is enough for two horse-drawn carriages."
Now I think I was really stupid.
Shen Wanwu looked at the carriages lined up in a row, which were as many as ten, and couldn't help but secretly admire the wisdom of his boss.
"Hurry up, fill up the carriage and leave! Don't waste time!"
Upon hearing this, the officials' faces changed slightly, but after seeing those ferocious-looking men, they all shrank their heads back in fear.
The monthly salary is just one or two taels of silver, there is no need to risk your life!
After a while, the ten carriages were full. Shen Wanwu waved his hand and left with the convoy.
When the officials returned to the warehouse, they found that the huge granary had been almost completely emptied.
"How much did they carry this time? I'm afraid even ten thousand kilograms of food wouldn't be enough."
A young official couldn't help but tremble in his legs.
Since the official grain was lost, these officials would inevitably be held accountable.
"What are you afraid of? We have the approval document from the county magistrate in our hands."
The old clerk raised the document in his hand and said, "Since this bastard official dared to approve the document, he is not afraid that the official grain will not be counted. Anyway, it's a bad debt, so I'll carry a bag back!"
As he spoke, the old clerk really went in and carried out a bag of grain. Seeing this, the other clerks also ran in to carry grain.
This scene completely stunned the young official.
"This...this is not good, right?" The young clerk gritted his teeth and picked up the two bags.
Even in times of peace and prosperity, there are hamsters.
In times of disaster and chaos, rat infestation becomes a disaster.
……
"Hey! White ape in front, stop for grandpa!"
Lu Zixuan shouted loudly and urged the horse under him to gallop all the way through the mountains, closely chasing the huge white figure in front.
"I've heard there's a white ape in these green mountains, and today I finally ran into one! You're quite a runner, little fellow! I chased you for ten miles. Today, I'm going to skin you and make you a magnificent cloak!"
It turned out that when Lu Zixuan was on his way, he accidentally saw a large ball of white snow in the shade of a mountain.
He thought of some vernacular novels he had read.
The book talks about white apes in the mountains, who usually have peerless martial arts hidden in their bellies.
He couldn't help but feel eager and chased the white ape all the way.
The white ape was chased all the way and fled into a dead end in panic, where it was blocked by Lu Zixuan.
"Hey, run, aren't you a good runner?"
Lu Zixuan drew the long sword from his waist and approached the white ape step by step.
When they got closer, Lu Zixuan's expression changed slightly.
"It's not a white ape, what the hell is this monster?"
The white ape raised its head, but it had no facial features, only two dark holes, staring at him lifelessly.
Above the chin was a pitch-black hole, like a mouth wide open in fear.
brush!
The sword flashed, and the long sword suddenly pierced into the monster's eyebrows, but no blood flowed.
The monster exhaled a breath of cold air from its mouth, and then it shattered into large and small pieces of snow, falling all over the ground.
"What the hell is this monster?"
Lu Zixuan suddenly felt a chill in his heart.
