The noise in the yard disappeared without a trace. Everyone looked at the crack of glass in front of them, and their boiling hearts seemed to fall into the ice cellar.

The frightened Chen Fang knelt down in front of Li Ming, put his head on the ground and said in a trembling voice: "The villain is incompetent and has damaged the baby. Please punish him." After hearing what he said, the craftsmen in the yard knelt down together, and his head was crushed on the ground in an instant.

Li Ming smiled bitterly, his heart was filled with discomfort and said loudly: "You all got up! No one blames this, I blame me for not explaining it to you in advance. However, you are all ceramic craftsmen with many years of experience. You should know what the consequences will be if you drip cold water on the porcelain that has just been out of the kiln. I will not punish you today, but please be careful in the future and get up."

Everyone stood up with relief. Looking at Chen Fang's guilty look, Li Ming comforted: "Chen Fang, don't be discouraged! If it is broken, you can start over. Come on! Get up and get the energy back up!"

Chen Fangru was about to be amnesty and breathed a sigh of relief, led the craftsmen and started working again.

Another pot of glass melt was out of the oven. This time everyone was more careful. No one dared to get closer to the glass. Li Ming saw that there was still a little melt left in the crucible and it was almost solidified. He hurriedly picked up the iron tube prepared in advance and inserted it into the melt and dipped it out. A large piece of glass melt was immediately dipped on the head of the iron tube, and Li Ming blew it at one end of the iron tube.

A glass bubble emerged from one end of the iron pipe. As Li Ming took the iron pipe and blew the air on the stove, the glass bubble became bigger and bigger. Finally, Li Ming moved the iron pipe away from the fire source, cooled a little, and then slashed a stone. A hollow, crystal clear glass container fell on the wooden board on the ground. The craftsmen in the yard looked at the miracle in front of him in amazement, almost not believing in their eyes.

Looking at the expressions of everyone, Li Ming smiled with satisfaction and called Chen Fang to him in detail to tell him how to blow glass. After the lecture, he said to him: "Blowing glass is a very advanced technique. I just performed how to blow glass, but my works are not good. If you want to blow out glass products of different shapes and even wall thickness, you need to practice for a long time. So, your task at present is: in addition to producing some glass plates and glass beads regularly every day, you will take them to practice blowing glass for the rest of the time. Whoever blows the best I will have a great reward! In addition, I would like to emphasize to you that the technology here is absolutely not allowed to be spread! You live on the island, so no one is allowed to go out. Do you understand?"

Chen Fang hurriedly agreed timidly, patting his chest and pouting, "Please rest assured, we are all those who are grateful. In the past, we were very good at eating when we were craftsmen, but now we not only eat well and live well, but we also have money every month. The master is also polite to us. What else do we have to be dissatisfied with? Are you all? Master, we are all coolies, and there are absolutely no ungrateful people!"

Li Ming nodded with satisfaction and said, "That's good, I believe everyone. The glass factory will be handed over to you. You have to do the flowing work I told you. This efficiency can be much higher. In addition, the heat resistance of this kind of crucible is very poor. You should be careful not to burn people. You should also hurry up and make the crucibles for steelmaking over there. Okay, you can continue to be busy, I will leave in advance." After that, everyone in the same yard said goodbye and walked out of the yard.

The dazzling sunshine shone on Li Ming's face, sweeping away the haze of yesterday. Li Ming's mood suddenly became cheerful. With flat glass, his business is about to reach a new level. The most important thing at present is to study the method of making silver nitrate as soon as possible, so that he can make high-quality glass mirrors. In this era when bronze mirrors are still used, silver-plated glass mirrors have much more promising prospects than glass cups. Li Ming remembered an interesting story in his book before, saying that it was in 1600.

When Queen Medic of Lancie got married, the King of Venice gave the bride a gift, which was extremely loved by the bride. The gift was a glass mirror the size of a book. At that time, the mirror was worth 150,000 gold francs, causing an extremely sensation in European countries. Moreover, the mirror was still a mercury mirror at that time. If he used the silver mirror reaction to make a silver-plated mirror, how much would it be worth? Thinking of this, Li Ming couldn't help but become greedy and giggled.

With beautiful longing, Li Ming walked to the bamboo forest without realizing it. Situ Yan's thin head was poked out from the bamboo forest. When he saw Li Ming, he hurriedly greeted him with a strange smile on his face.

Looking at Situ Yan's malicious smile, Li Ming was confused and asked in confusion: "What's wrong? He smiled so strangely? Don't laugh anymore. He will become a bun with an old smile."

Situ Yan laughed and said, "Dean, go and deal with it quickly, there is almost no one in the bamboo forest."

"Oh?" Li Ming asked in a very puzzled manner, "What's going on? Why can't you stay alone? What happened?"

Situ Yan smiled and said, "What a fool to behave like to be foolish! Didn't you ask the students to collect horse pee? When the students heard that they were asking for it, they all stopped attending classes. Some students went out early in the morning. Haha, now you go to the bamboo forest to take a look. The corridor is full of cans of horse pee, which is stinking. Also, the students have bought a lot of pregnant mares, tied to the bamboo forest, making a noise, haha."

Li Ming then remembered and said hurriedly: "That's great! You asked those students to move their horse urine to the sun and expose them to the sun. When the moisture evaporates and drys, make the things inside with honey into honey pills. Soon! I will use them tomorrow, the more you make, the better."

When Situ Yan heard what he said, he was so surprised that his mouth could not be closed for a long time. He looked at Li Ming with a strange look, not knowing what he was going to do. After a long time, he asked: "What does the dean mean? Mapi honey pills?! Do the dean use Mapi urine as medicine? Or is the pregnant mare pee? Hahahaha, who is so lucky to take Mapi honey pills?"

Li Ming laughed and said, "What? Do you want to eat? Remember: you must do it for me tomorrow. In addition, you must explain this to those students, keep the secrets strictly, and no one is allowed to say it casually, you understand?" After saying this, his face suddenly became serious.

Seeing Li Ming like this, Situ Yan hurriedly stopped his smile and said to Li Ming: "Don't worry, Dean, I will tell them to strictly keep the secret of this matter. If the Dean has nothing else to do, I will ask them to quickly remove the horse's urine and dry it."

Li Ming nodded and signaled Situ Yan to handle the matter as soon as possible, and turned to walk up the mountain.

On the top of the mountain, Zhang Yao was practicing sword with Mrs. Lin on the grass. When she saw Li Ming coming up, she flew over like a bird, pestering Li Ming to ask about her well-being.

Seeing Zhang Yao's appearance, Li Ming felt warm in his heart. He took Zhang Yao's little hand and walked to Mrs. Lin and said to Mrs. Lin: "Master's wife, is there no news about the master yet?"

Mrs. Lin smiled and said, "Don't worry, your master has not been able to do anything. But he just received a letter from the Saint Hand King Fei Ge, saying that he would be back tomorrow. Also, he invited Chen Yu back too."

"What? That Chen is really Chen Yu?" Li Ming was so happy that he almost jumped up and said excitedly: "That's great! With this person, my oil refinery can start construction. Haha, it seems that my luck is really good."

Mrs. Lin continued, "And that, Feige sent a letter saying that they brought back a large ship of oil, and the Holy Hand King found all the book-printing craftsmen in Mocheng. Haha, Mocheng is in trouble now."

Li Ming smiled and said, "That's great. With this group of people, I can print all my information into a book, so that those people can learn it quickly. I also want to run a newspaper to inform you of the important things happening on the island every day."

After Li Ming was happy enough, Zhang Yao pulled Li Ming into the pavilion and said to Li Ming: "Sir, I went to see Man'er just now. Her body is so weak. It's so pitiful." After that, his eyes couldn't help but turn red.

Li Ming's high mood suddenly fell and said with a sad expression: "Hey! It's all my fault. I blame others for not being able to set myself up enough. I really regret it when I let such a little girl suffer such a great grievance."

Zhang Yao hurriedly said, "Sir, don't blame yourself too much. Didn't everyone agree that she had a problem at that time? Even I doubted her, it was not the responsibility of Mr. alone. Besides, although Man'er suffered such a great torture, she had proved that she was innocent after all, and there were always times of mistakes! When I went there just now, I heard from the maid who served her that she had eaten a bowl of ginseng porridge in the morning. She was much more energetic, but she was still very weak and could not get up. We talked for a while, and she said that she had never blamed her. It was Mr. who rescued her from the tiger's mouth. No matter what the teacher did to her, she would not blame her. I could see that she was telling the truth, hey! Poor Man'er."

Li Ming asked with concern: "Did you mention what to do in the future? Do you have any plans?"

Zhang Yao nodded and said, "Man'er said she didn't want to leave, she wouldn't leave even if she gave her a mountain of gold and silver. She would rather serve the young master beside her. This is her original words."

Li Ming sighed: "Since that's the case, then you should keep her by your side. I owe her so much, why do you have the nerve to let her be a girl again? This way, if you have time, you can ask her, if she wants, I'm willing to accept her as my fuck sister."

Zhang Yao was overjoyed and said, "Really? Mr. I really decided to do this? Mr. is so nice! Man'er will definitely be very happy."

Li Ming smiled bitterly and said, "This is just the compensation I have made to her. I just hope that the shadow caused by this matter in her heart can gradually fade away. Just don't hate me anymore, alright!"

Zhang Yao smiled and said, "Don't worry, sir. I think Man'er is not such a person. She will definitely not take this matter seriously. And she herself said that she doesn't blame her."

Li Ming sighed lightly: "I hope this is the case, Yao'er, I have a very important thing to talk to you. I hope you don't blame me for being abrupt."

Zhang Yao smiled and said softly: "If you have anything, just say it. Is there anything that you can't say in front of Yao'er?"

Li Ming lowered his head and was embarrassed for a long time, looked at Zhang Yao and said embarrassedly: "Yao'er, you are leaving your hometown to follow me, you are really embarrassing you."

Zhang Yao laughed and said, "Sir, what are you saying? You are still saying such things to Yao'er at this time?"

Li Ming lowered his head and stammered for a long time, suddenly made up his mind, raised his head and said, "Yao'er, although marriage is about to win the consent of his parents, since your father is not around, let us make the decision. Yao'er, let's get married, I hope you don't think it's too hasty." After that, he turned his red face and did not dare to look at Zhang Yao again.

Zhang Yao's eyes were as bright as silk, her face was bright red. She lowered her head and kept fiddling with the corners of her clothes with her hands, and said in an inauspicious voice: "Since Yao'er has come out with her husband, she has already made up her mind. In fact, Yao'er has long regarded herself as her husband. What does the husband want? Yao'er has no objection to what he wants."

Li Ming raised his head ecstatically, looked at Zhang Yao and said, "So, Yao'er, do you agree?"

Zhang Yao said shyly: "Yao'er has said a long time ago that Yao'er belongs to the teacher, and there is no objection to the teacher's decision to do it."

Li Ming screamed with joy, jumped up and picked up Zhang Yao and turned around several big circles. He was so excited that he didn't know what to say. Zhang Yao buried her head tightly in front of Li Ming's chest, and her heart was filled with a feeling of happiness.

Mrs. Lin walked out of the room when she heard the sound. She saw this scene and laughed and said, "You are still making trouble here! This makes the servants see how well they are. Why don't you come into the house quickly?"

The two hurriedly separated and walked into Mrs. Lin's room with red faces.

Looking at Li Ming, Mrs. Lin asked curiously: "What's the matter? Looks like this."

Li Ming hurried forward and bowed deeply to Mrs. Lin. Mrs. Lin asked in surprise: "Li Ming, what are you doing?"

Li Ming said: "Master's wife, my disciple has something to ask for, it is about me and Yao'er. The master's wife also knows that because of my carelessness, King Kang saw Yao'er. Seeing that he seemed to have bad intentions towards Yao'er, in order to avoid the long night dreams, he asked the master and his wife to agree to my marriage with Yao'er. As for Long'er, I believe that if he knows the current situation, he will forgive my difficulties."

After hearing this, Mrs. Lin smiled slightly and said to the two: "This is the best. In fact, your master talked to me about this yesterday. His meaning is the same. The one he is concerned about is Long'er. Alas! But with Long'er's personality, I believe she can understand it. When she forgives you, we will re-do it for you. Now that you and Yao'er both mean this, it will be easy. When your master comes back tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, we will get you married here. Your master means that under the current situation, everything is simple for your marriage, so don't do it with great fanfare."

Li Ming said happily: "Since the master and his wife agree, I agree with the master's opinion. In an extraordinary period, it's too aggrieved Yao'er."

Zhang Yao whispered: "As long as the sir is happy, Yao'er has no objection. As long as Yao'er can be with her, she is the greatest happiness. Yao'er doesn't care whether there is any ritual."

Mrs. Lin nodded and smiled, "Since this is the case, it will be easy. When your master comes back, you will handle it for you immediately. Master’s wife will congratulate you here first. Alas! I wonder if Long'er has this blessing! Li Ming, you have been with Long'er for a long time, why haven’t you changed her personality yet? You are still so stubborn."

Li Ming smiled bitterly and said, "Long'er has been used to being independent since childhood. She has her own ideas and opinions. She is an independent person and will not change her personality because of other people's ideas. Alas, I hope she can figure it out and come back soon."

Mrs. Lin smiled and said, "Okay, let's not play her anymore. Li Ming, you should go and go. Yao'er and I are going to prepare for your marriage. Although we are not ready to make a statement, the people on the island still need to celebrate. Don't worry, Yao'er will stay with me."

Li Ming agreed happily and said goodbye to the two of them and left the room. He looked up at the sun above his head and felt so brilliant. The birds on the trees seemed to know what he thought and were chirping and singing joy for him. Ding Dong's spring water seemed to be blessing him. Everything seemed so beautiful.

Li Ming ran down the mountain happily. When he passed by the bamboo forest, he was beaten by the urine jar placed on the open space in front of him. There were at least 200 densely packed pieces. It seemed that these students were very attentive to their instructions! Li Ming thought proudly.

Situ Yan pinched his nose and ran towards Li Ming, saying to Li Ming: "Dean, what do you think? There are enough. But do you have to be so hot every day? This is unbearable. What if a customer comes to the island, how can this be done!"

Li Ming laughed and said, "Is your head really really unrestrained? Biquan Island is so big, where is it difficult to put it on? Why do you insist on spreading it here? Really, how can I say you are? Let's go to another place to spread it tomorrow. By the way, have you met Chen Hao?"

Situ Yan said with a slightly red face: "I didn't see it, didn't you let him do something? Who knows where he is now?"

Li Ming said oh and was about to walk away, but he saw a group of people coming ashore from the dock from afar. He hurried over and saw Chen Hao leading a large number of people to unload the things on the boat to the dock.

Seeing Li Ming, Chen Hao hurriedly met him and said with a sweat all over his head: "Master, all the blacksmiths on the Tieshan side have come. I said to them that they are very willing. They took down everything this morning and should have come back long ago, but today there is no wind! The sailboat rowed in the lake for two hours, which is really unlucky."

Li Ming smiled and said, "You are quite efficient! So fast! How about it? Those craftsmen have no idea, right?"

"I told them all the conditions, including food and accommodation, and there is still wages every month. They go to work regularly and have regular rest every day. They were very happy when they heard this, and they started to tear down the guy without saying a word."

Li Ming nodded and said, "That's good, is Wang Tao on the boat too?"

"Wang Tao went to buy ships today." Chen Hao wiped his sweat and said, "He said that it is difficult to buy ships now, and it takes a little time, and he wants to go early. In addition, he said that he wanted to find all the craftsmen in nearby shipbuilding to the island, and he wanted to build our own ships on Biquan Island so that the ships would not be used enough."
