Wu Yong was a little surprised. He didn't expect Chu Yue to say such a straightforward statement as soon as he came up.
He smiled.
"As long as you like it."
"So I want to try to make this thing myself. Do you know what materials are needed to make mirrors in the Western Regions?" Chu Yue looked at him seriously and asked.
Looking into the bright eyes of the girl opposite, Wu Yong felt that his heartbeat skipped a beat, and he forgot to answer her for a moment.
Seeing that Wu Yong was in a daze, Chu Yue stretched out her hand and waved it in front of his eyes.
"Wu Yong, I have a question for you."
Wu Yong lowered his eyes and calmly picked up the tea cup in front of him and took a sip of water.
"About this mirror, I actually asked a prisoner in the Western Regions before, but he didn't know much. He only knew that sand, oral alkali and quicklime were used. As for whether there are other materials, what the proportions are, and how to make it, I didn’t find out, so I stopped thinking about it.”
Hearing this, it was already a huge improvement for Chu Yue, who was originally blind.
Even if she doesn't know the proportions, she can adjust it. She also knows the method of making it, including melting at high temperatures.
As for whether these three materials are the only ones, you will know after giving it a try.
Chu Yue looked at the man opposite with a smile, "Wu Yong, you have helped me a lot this time."
Wu Yong looked puzzled.
"How to say?"
He felt that what he just said was as if he didn't say it. After all, he might not even have the ingredients for the formula.
Chu Yue took a sip of tea and smiled mysteriously.
"Just wait. When I make the first batch of materials, I will help you raise the soldiers under your hands."
Her face was full of confidence.
Wu Yong sat up straight and said seriously, "Are you really sure?"
He is currently worried about money. He has more than one or two people under his command. Just eating alone costs a lot of money a day, not to mention that during military training, they have to replenish their worn-out equipment.
The method of planting in the mountains that Chu Yue mentioned before is good, but crops cannot be grown in a short period of time.
Before this, huge daily expenses had to be met with real money.
Chu Yue looked at him.
"Try it, what if it works?"
After thinking about it, Wu Yong looked at Chu Yue again.
"Can you find the right people to help you make these?"
Chu Yue shook her head, "Not yet."
"In this case, I have many people under my command. If you can trust me..."
Before Wu Yong finished speaking, Chu Yue said, "You are my brother, of course I can trust you, but our formula is immature and we have to ask someone to debug it slowly."
Wu Yong looked at her and smiled, as if the obsession in his heart was gradually letting go.
"Okay, how to do it? Tell me after you sort it out. Then I will spread the news to the mountains. There are many things in your medical clinic, so I will go back first."
"good."
After sending Wu Yong away, Chu Yue went back to the medical clinic to do some work. While busy with the things at hand, she also temporarily determined the materials needed for the glass in her spare time, and then noted the production method, and asked Ningdong to send Wu Yong's glass to him. Mansion, let his people start adjusting the formula proportions first.
Returning to Zhuangzi in the evening, Chu Yue excitedly talked about this matter with Lu Xinghe.
Lu Xinghe looked at her.
"You want to help him?"
Chu Yue did not deny it.
"He has made a great contribution to the formula of glass. Now that he has someone, I have an idea. Let's take what we need. Anyway, we have to find someone to make it." She looked at Lu Xinghe, "We are now alone in the capital. We are weak, so these fellow villagers need to stay in close contact."
Lu Xinghe hummed.
"If this glass can really be made, even a 10% dividend will be enough for him to support his troops."
Chu Yue nodded, bent her eyes and said, "That's what I think, but I plan to give him 30%. I will get 20% for myself, and I will send the other 50% to the palace."
As she spoke, she looked at Lu Xinghe with questioning eyes.
Lu Xinghe put down the tea cup in his hand and looked sideways at her.
"For your Majesty?"
"Yes, the property under my control is enough for our family to have enough food and clothing. No matter how much money we have, it will only arouse the jealousy of the man in the palace. I might as well hold the money in front of him to show my loyalty. What do you think? "
Her eyes were clear and transparent, like a clear spring that had not been polluted by the world.
Looking at the bright and intelligent woman in front of him, Lu Xinghe pursed his lips and smiled, holding her hand in his palm.
"Yue'er's idea is very good."
After receiving Lu Xinghe's approval, Chu Yue was as happy as a child. She approached Lu Xinghe and looked at him intently.
"Do you think I'm smart, sir?"
Lu Xinghe reached out and touched her head.
"You've never been stupid."
Chu Yue sat up straight and snorted with pride, "Who said before that being smart is to complement me?"
Lu Xinghe touched his nose in amusement.
"It's not good for a little girl to hold a grudge like this."
The little girl opposite smiled with a sly expression, "It's a pity, I have already remembered it."
"hehe."
Lu Xinghe couldn't help laughing when he saw her like this.
Chu Yue held her chin in her hands and looked openly at Lu Xinghe's smile that couldn't help but feel pleasant.
"My husband is so good-looking, but I wonder what he would look like in women's clothes?"
Hearing this, Lu Xinghe's smile suddenly froze, and he looked at Chu Yue in surprise, as if she had just said something shocking.
"I'm a man," he reminded.
Chu Yue nodded like a fool, "I know, I'm just curious."
He opened his mouth, not knowing how to answer Chu Yue's words. After a moment, he reached out and scratched Chu Yue's nose.
"naughty!"
Chu Yue covered her nose with an aggrieved face, and her eyes gradually became misty.
"How come my husband is so harsh? Your nose is even red because of your scratches."
Lu Xinghe hurried forward to check.
"I clearly didn't use any force just now..."
Before she finished speaking, she saw Chu Yue narrowing her eyes like a little fox, then she knelt down and stood up, and kissed him on the cheek.
"Okay, it's even."
Suddenly attacked by Chu Yue, his eyes as deep as an ancient well looked at the smiling girl opposite. After Lu Xinghe was stunned for a moment, the expression on his face was replaced by doting.
"You are getting more and more courageous, and you dare to lie to me."
"My husband is so smart, how could he be easily deceived?" Chu Yue looked at him with a smile, "If you ask me, you are a typical example of caring and chaos."
Lu Xinghe smiled helplessly.
"It is true that care leads to chaos." After a pause, he looked at Chu Yue again, "It seems that the soldiers from Northern Xinjiang are about to arrive in the capital."
Chu Yue put away her playful thoughts and looked puzzled, "My husband always talks about Northern Xinjiang. Are there any enemies of ours there?"
Lu Xinghe didn't hide it.
"yes."
