Thank you for the invitation. I am in the Ming Dynasty and swear not to be an official!

Chapter 29 The Birth of Glass
A few days later, in the palace.

Li Shanchang and Hu Weiyong were very excited and came to Zhu Yuanzhang with clean and transparent glass to claim credit.

"Sir, this glass is indeed a good thing! If it is installed on the window, you can see clearly both inside and outside!"

Li Shanchang's words not only failed to make Zhu Yuanzhang happy, but actually made the originally enthusiastic Zhu Yuanzhang frown.

"Can you still see the inside from the outside? We forgot about this problem!"

Even though Zhu Yuanzhang was born with mud legs, he also accepted the influence of traditional reserved habits and did not want to expose his private side to others, even palace maids and eunuchs.

Upon seeing this, Hu Weiyong immediately came to the rescue: "Your Majesty, this problem is easy to solve. Cover it with a piece of cloth, and outsiders will not be able to peek inside!"

Zhu Yuanzhang immediately shook his head: "It's so dark inside the cloth, it's not even as good as window paper."

Hu Weiyong cursed secretly in his heart, saying that this emperor was really difficult to serve.

As soon as I rolled my eyes, I wanted to divert the trouble to the east.

"Your Majesty, Uncle Guangfeng has great supernatural powers. Maybe he has this ability."

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Hu Weiyong dissatisfiedly. He naturally knew that Hu Weiyong was trying to squeeze him, but instead of arguing with Hu Weiyong, he actually stood up and walked out.

"Now that the glass is made, sell it as soon as possible to see how much it can sell for. If you make a lot of profit, I will mark your two achievements as a great achievement!"

Not long after, Zhu Yuanzhang arrived at Liao Tiancheng's mansion, went in and walked around, but found that his daughter was the only one writing something in the room.

After coughing, Princess Ning Guo didn't notice it and was still immersed in her studies.

"This girl, what are you doing so seriously?"

Zhu Yuanzhang tiptoed in and saw that Ning Guo seemed to be writing a ledger.

"A new batch of scrap products will be added, [-]% of the raw materials will be lost, and the expected profit will be reduced by [-]%..."

"To reward the craftsmen today, it will cost a total of fifteen coins..."

Looking next to it, there are also thick account books.

"Did you remember all of this?"

Zhu Yuanzhang's voice rang in her ears, and Princess Ning Guo looked up in surprise.

"Father? Why are you here?"

Then Ning Guo went out to take a look with a guilty conscience, and was relieved when he saw that Liao Tiancheng was not there.

"You're here, doing this every day?"

Zhu Yuanzhang did not respond to Princess Ningguo, but pointed to the account book and continued to ask.

Princess Ningguo suddenly looked proud: "My father asked my daughter to pay off her debts, and my daughter is using this to earn money to pay off her debts!"

Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to laugh at her for not making much money, but seeing Princess Ning Guo's eyes sparkling when she mentioned this job and her whole body full of energy, he just nodded slightly.

"Just like your mother, she looks like a helpful wife."

Zhu Yuanzhang praised him with satisfaction.

Princess Ningguo was immediately overjoyed. To hear a word of praise from her, the emperor, would be as difficult as climbing to heaven!

However, what seems wrong with this statement?
"Father, what a good wife, and my daughter is not his. Don't talk nonsense, it will ruin your daughter's reputation."

Unexpectedly, Zhu Yuanzhang just laughed: "If it's bad, it's bad. If it's bad, just blackmail him and marry him!"

"Father! How can you say that!"

Princess Ningguo's face turned red with embarrassment and she became angry.

Zhu Yuanzhang did not continue to talk about this, but pointed to the account book and asked: "What's going on? How come there are waste products? Did Liao Tiancheng invented the recipe himself, but he didn't make the glass in the end?"

Princess Ning Guo immediately shook her head: "There is no problem with the glass, it is pure and transparent, but he is not satisfied. He said that it has no characteristics compared with the glass in the imperial court and is not easy to sell, so he will treat it as scrap."

And this thing?

Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly became interested. "Then you continue to make money and pay off your debts. When Liao Tiancheng says you have finished paying off, we will take you back to the palace to get married."

Princess Ning Guo was shocked: "It will take ten or eight years to pay back, who wants me anymore?"

"So, you might as well just follow Liao Tiancheng."

Zhu Yuanzhang ran away as soon as he finished speaking, leaving Princess Ning Guo in a mess.

"My majestic daughter, my father actually asked me to stay and pay off my debts, and he didn't even say a word when I became a maid! I'm talking about this again today!"

"Could it be that my father had this intention in the first place?"

After thinking about it, Princess Ningguo suddenly realized something.

"Didn't you say that it was a marriage arranged for me by the Mei family? What happened?"

"By the way, I am an innocent young girl who has lived alone with that guy Liao Tiancheng for so many days. It seems that I am not suitable for marrying into the Mei family."

"Could it be that this palace has really fallen into his hands in this life?"

Princess Ningguo was dumbfounded for a while.

Zhu Yuanzhang went straight to Liao Tiancheng's ruined courtyard, and saw Liao Tiancheng cheerfully pointing to things on the ground and talking.

"I'm not bragging about this thing! The price is ten times, or even dozens of times more expensive than what the imperial court sells!"

"Thank you all for your hard work! When I make money, I will give everyone a reward of ten taels of silver!"

When the two hundred craftsmen heard this, they were overjoyed and thanked Liao Tiancheng profusely.

"Don't thank me. If you want to thank me, then you have to thank the current emperor!"

Zhu Yuanzhang stopped immediately when he heard this.

"Without the current emperor, there would be no such peaceful and prosperous age. I'm afraid we would still be living like pigs and dogs under the hands of those barbarians! If you want to thank us, just thank His Majesty the Emperor!"

Liao Tiancheng was actually really afraid of Zhu Yuanzhang, the sixth man.

How did the heroes die?

It was because it affected the imperial power.

How did the richest man Shen Wansan die?

It's because this guy actually wants to give money to Zhu Yuanzhang's soldiers.

Although I am working in a small business with only [-] craftsmen, I still have to guide this group of people early and let them sing praises to Zhu Yuanzhang every day and thank him profusely, so that Zhu Yuanzhang can rest assured and he will not get into trouble.

In fact, Zhu Yuanzhang felt very comfortable listening outside.

"Tiancheng! Not bad, you still know how to give the credit to the emperor?"

Zhu Yuanzhang walked in with a smile.

"Old man! You haven't been here for several days! Haha, I'm telling the truth. First there is a country and then a family, first there is a king and then ministers! Without the country your Majesty laid down, I, and they, might not be able to do anything now. They were all captured and sent to fight by the Yuan people!"

This is true, but who would have thought of this?

Zhu Yuanzhang himself never thought this way.

But now that Liao Tiancheng was given such a credit, Zhu Yuanzhang was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear.

"Tiancheng, I'm not wrong about you. You are indeed a smart man and a knowledgeable person of our Ming Dynasty! In the future, we have to... talk to His Majesty about this truth and let him warn the people of the world and let them think of you as their leader. A role model and a grateful heart!”

While praising, Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes inadvertently fell on the finished glass on one side.

The glass is flat and wide, but the most important thing is that although it looks bright, it has an extra layer of blur!

It can transmit light, but you can't see what's on the other side!

Isn’t this the kind of glass we want for our ideal windows?
Hu Weiyong and Li Shanchang can't do it, so they still run against us!
As everyone knows, Liao Tiancheng has already thought of this problem in advance and has successfully solved it!
