Li Ran followed Hong Bin to the house where the chimneys were located.
As soon as he caught sight of it, he was immediately stunned.
There are several tall stoves, and a group of uniformly dressed people are busy around them with clear division of labor.
Balls of dough-like stuff were burned out in the furnace. Some people were holding iron pliers, scissors and other tools in their hands, playing with and kneading them. Others were holding a blowpipe, puffing out their cheeks, and blowing on it with their faces flushed. gas.
A variety of finished products with crystal luster are placed on one side.
There are still some failed fragments piled on the ground. Those fragments are equally shining, even more dazzling and impactful.
"This, this is Liuli!?" Li Ran's voice was trembling. After all, Liuli was worth thousands of gold.
He had never seen so many glazed products, and he never thought that they were made by their own people.
Mr. Li said it was big business, but this was indeed no ordinary big business.
"Your Majesty, Fifth Prince, Marquis Li said this is called glass, and these are all glass products." Hong Bin bowed to the side and said with a smile.
"Glass?" Li Ran frowned twice, "Isn't it Liuli?"
"Li Hou also said that colored glaze is glass, and glass is colored glaze." Hong Bin said with a smile.
"Liu Li is glass, and glass is Liu Li." Li Ran was relieved, that is to say, in his opinion, these were clearly Liu Li, so how could they be called glass? It turned out that it was just Mr. Li's name that was different.
He also glanced at Hong Bin, cupped his hands and said, "You really shouldn't be careless here. Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Hong!"
He finally understood why Mr. Li chose to build this Liulichang in Chonghe Palace. He already knew the concept of a factory when he was in Beiba Village. .z.
I finally understood why there were so many more guards in Chonghe Palace, including Hong Bin.
This is really a huge fortune. The so-called glass products produced are just piles of gold. Can it be kept secret and guarded heavily?
What Mr. Li said about filling up the national treasury is really not a joke.
"Your Highness, the Fifth Highness, is serious. This is the duty of a villain. Marquis Li has said that from now on, His Highness the Fifth Highness will be in charge of this Liulichang. If His Highness the Fifth Highness has any orders, just give them." Hong Bin hurriedly bent down and said.
"Am I responsible for this Liulichang?" Li Ran was stunned.
"Yes, from now on, His Highness the Fifth Highness will be solely responsible for this Liulichang. But please rest assured, Your Highness, these workers are already very skilled. There is no need to worry about production. Your Highness will be responsible for the operation." Hong Bin said.
"Responsible for the operation?" Li Ran murmured.
"As for how it works, I believe that Marquis Li will tell His Highness the Fifth Prince in private. These are not things that I can know," Hong Bin said.
"Master Hong, you better not call yourself a villain in front of me. Your position is not low. This makes me very uncomfortable." Li Ran said.
Now Hong Bin was a little too polite to him, which indeed made him feel a little uncomfortable.
After all, it was already good for those ministers in the past to say hello politely to him, the fifth prince.
"No, there must be rules. Your Highness will get used to it after listening to it." Hong Bin said with a smile.
Just kidding, now that it is obvious that Marquis Li is supporting His Highness the Fifth Highness, can he still treat His Highness the same way as before?
Seeing him like this, Li Ran didn't say anything else.
After all, these were just trivial matters, and he was more concerned about Liuli.
He saw it coming out of the furnace and taking shape, but what materials were used and how much it cost.
Glaze products are so expensive outside, so the material must not be cheap.
"Brother Zhu, do you think this batch will work?" At this time, a worker pointed to a batch of newly formed products and asked a man wearing a mask.
The man looked at the batch of products and frowned, "There are too many bubbles in here, it will cause severe burns!"
When the worker heard this, he picked up an iron bar without hesitation and smashed the batch of products to pieces.
Li Ran was too late to stop him.
"Why did you smash them?" Li Ran stepped forward and said angrily.
After all, in his opinion, that batch of products was very good, even better than the glazed products he saw outside, so he smashed them anyway.
If you take this outside, you may not know how much money it will cost, and it will also be a waste of materials.
Since Mr. Li asked him to be in charge of this Liulichang, he naturally couldn't ignore it.
"Fifth Young Master!" The man pulled off his mask, it was Ma Tiezhu.
