Chapter 105 Predecessors and Descendants
At the dinner table, ever since Xiao Jingzhi and his three companions arrived, they had been eating at the same table as Lin Yan.
After Lin's father finished his surgery, Lin's mother brought him food and ate with him in the room. Only Xiao Jingzhi, Chen Feng, Chen Shuo, Li Zhongwei and Lin Yan were at the table.
Xiao Jingzhi asked, "So, did you manage to create the glass you wanted?"
"It's burning! It's burning!" Lin Yan said happily.
"I've made what I wanted!"
"Really?!" Xiao Jingzhi exclaimed in surprise.
"Then I'd better go check it out!"
"Hmm? You succeeded! Then I'll have to go and see what you've made!" Li Zhongwei said.
"No problem! I'll take you there after lunch!"
Chen Shuo blinked his big eyes, "What are you making?"
Chen Feng also looked up curiously.
"You'll find out later!"
"At this point, you're still keeping us in suspense!" Chen Shuo muttered.
"Eat properly!" Xiao Jingzhi said to him, turning his head slightly.
Chen Shuo obediently kept his head down and ate his rice: "Okay!"
……
"what!"
"What's this!"
Screams echoed from the foot of the mountain behind the Lin family's house.
Xiao Jingzhi looked around the glass mirror from the front and back, and touched the silver coating on the back.
I watched Lin Yan fire this glass. It is indeed transparent after firing, and the fact that it can reflect people now is definitely due to the silver coating on the back.
Chen Feng's face was full of shock. "How...how can you know so much about this?!"
Chen Shuo was dumbfounded. He only realized what was happening when he looked at his own silly reflection in the mirror.
Li Deshan watched with amazement, but he had been observing Lin Yan's experiments for a long time and was prepared, so he wasn't too surprised at this moment.
Li Zhongwei was initially shocked, then his eyes lit up as he looked at himself closely in the mirror, unable to stop smiling.
"The reason you can see people is because of the paint on the back, right?" Xiao Jingzhi asked.
“That’s right!” Lin Yan nodded.
"Actually, this is silver."
Xiao Jingzhi was somewhat surprised, "Silver? How can it be so thin!"
"It's a reaction..."
"Wait!" Xiao Jingzhi suddenly interrupted her, "You'd better not say anything!"
Lin Yan glanced at him, knowing what he was thinking. "It doesn't matter! I'm not planning to build a glass workshop or anything, and I'm not going to sell this. I just want to use it myself! It's okay to tell you."
"Huh? You're not doing business?"
"My winery isn't even built yet, I can't manage it all, and the materials for this are quite troublesome," Lin Yan sighed.
"If this kind of mirror could appear on the market, it would definitely cause a stir in the upper-class market!" Xiao Jingzhi saw the market potential of this thing at a glance.
"Hey, I'm all alone! I can't handle it all! I don't want to be too tired." Lin Yan shrugged.
She looked at Xiao Jingzhi, who was deep in thought, and her eyes lit up. She smiled and said, "Hey! How about I teach you the method and you do it? Don't you have a glass workshop? It would be convenient for you to do this! You can give me a share of the profits!"
Lin Yan blinked, thinking this method was excellent. She didn't have to worry about anything; she could just wait to get her share of the money.
Xiao Jingzhi glanced at her and chuckled, "Alright, what percentage of profit do you want?"
"I'm not in charge, so let's go with 20%!" Lin Yan thought for a moment.
"Twenty percent? You're being too generous." Xiao Jingzhi touched the glass mirror beside him, pondering.
"This is a friend's price for you!" Lin Yan said with a grin. "Besides, I really don't want to worry about anything. Your place is too far away for me to go!"
"Then it'll be 30%," Xiao Jingzhi said, a smile spreading across his face. "A friendly price for you!"
"Sure! Why wouldn't I want more money?" Lin Yan said with a smile.
Seeing that the two had settled the business deal in a short time, Chen Feng stared intently at Lin Yan, who was all smiles, and seemed to see some resemblance to the late Empress.
He had never met the late Empress, let alone His Highness. His mother died shortly after his birth, and he could only hear about her from the workers in the glass workshop or people in the palace. They all said she was an extraordinary woman.
A man came to Daye to do business and his business flourished.
"Hey! Lin Yan, make one for me too!" Li Zhongwei had been looking in the mirror for a long time, and nodding in satisfaction at his reflection.
Lin Yan glanced at him in surprise, then laughed as she saw him looking in the mirror: "I didn't expect that Doctor Li would be so vain?!"
Xiao Jingzhi raised an eyebrow, watching Li Zhongwei admiring himself in the mirror.
"Do you know how old Dr. Li is?" Lin Yan asked.
Xiao Jingzhi gently shook his head. "I'm not sure of his exact age, but he made his name over a decade ago. From the moment he appeared, everyone described him as having white hair! I always thought he was an old man, but he doesn't really look like one."
"White hair and a youthful face! How does she maintain her youthful appearance? If all the women who love beauty knew this, wouldn't they all be chasing after her!"
“There are men who love beauty too,” Xiao Jingzhi said softly.
Lin Yan looked at the vain Li Zhongwei and laughed so hard she bent over, "Hahaha! That's right!"
"I'm going to continue!" Lin Yan began to pack up the materials, preparing to continue cooking.
"Give me this side!" Li Zhongwei said with a smile, leaning closer.
“Okay, but do you have room to put it in your room?” Lin Yan asked, considering.
"I'll have Lao Li get me a frame!" Li Zhongwei said nonchalantly.
"Why are you still making me do the work?!" Li Deshan complained.
"Oh, why don't you just find someone to do it? You can order around any of the craftsmen here!"
"Hmph, everyone here is busy. The lattice window that Lin Yan wanted hasn't been made yet. She also wants to add a staircase down to the balcony..." Li Deshan complained about Lin Yan's various demands.
"Hey, Mr. Li, come to my warehouse and get some bars. Take as much as you want to drink!" Lin Yan waved her hand.
"Hmph, if it weren't for this little bit of alcohol, I wouldn't be doing this!" Li Deshan said.
"Hey, hey, hey! These frames aren't anything complicated, just make them for me!" Li Zhongwei persisted in pestering him.
Li Deshan ignored him and turned to leave. Li Zhongwei followed closely behind, trying to persuade him as they walked.
"Hehe!" Lin Yan chuckled.
“I’ll have Chen Feng order a few more crucibles; that way we can produce more!” Xiao Jingzhi said, standing to the side.
“Great! We can design several sizes, big and small!” Lin Yan said. She is currently making them according to the size of her cabinet. Although they can be cut, it is more convenient to ship them directly.
Xiao Jingzhi nodded and instructed, "Then I'll go to my room and draw a diagram."
Lin Yan nodded quickly. Xiao Jingzhi was an expert, so she was extremely relieved.
Xiao Jingzhi took Chen Feng away, and left Chen Shuo behind to help Lin Yan.
"Miss Lin! How did you come up with this idea?"
"It wasn't my idea; it's all the wisdom of our predecessors!" Lin Yan said mysteriously.
"Previous people? How come I don't know them?" Chen Shuo frowned.
Lin Yan looked up at him, smiled, and didn't say anything, thinking to herself: Because to you, they are descendants!
