In Wuzhuang Temple, in a small courtyard, there are many rows of colorful glassware on the shelf by the window, including glass bowls, glass tea cups, glass kettles, etc. Some are made of transparent glass, and some are made of stained glass.

Wang Yuwen Wen of Xiyang looked at the display in front of him with satisfaction. Liu Yang, the owner of Wuzhuang Temple beside him, introduced his masterpiece with great spirit. Of course, he was responsible for the process of coloring glass.

In fact, it is a supplementary approach. Yuwen Wen's glass (glass) workshop has such ability, but it was only tested by endless experiments through exhaustive methods, while Liu Yang was researched by "chemistry".

By "melting" different metals into the glass, the glass can be "colored". Taoist priests from Wuzhuang Temple have made breakthrough research on a variety of "colored" metals, so Liu Yang is now showing his research results to Yuwen Wen.

Nonsense, as the mastermind behind Wuzhuangguan, Yuwen Wen has invested huge sums of money to help Liu Yang study the "tradition of chemistry". No matter how unkind Liu Yang is, he knows that he should come up with results in return.

"King, the spectrometer has been changed many times, and the spectrum of some metals has gradually been clearly distinguished, so there are more and more ways to color the glass."

"The Huangzhou General Administration Office has initially identified some useful ore in the mined mines, which is sufficient for glass workshops to use..."

Yuwen Wen sat on the couch and signaled Liu Yang to sit opposite him. It was private time now, so he didn't plan to show off his pomp and talk about his superiority. He held a thick summary report in his hand, and he looked and asked with interest.

The so-called "spectral analysis" of Wuzhuangguan is still very primitive. After all, without the support of profound scientific theories, there is no way to further develop it. However, it is already commendable that Liu Yang, the former alchemy maniac, can achieve this step now.

It has been a big help to distinguish the levels of certain metals in various ores, especially in the glass industry. If he wants to make transparent glass in large quantities in a long-term, he has to rely on the power of science.

The so-called transparent glass is of course still colored. Based on high school chemistry knowledge, Yuwen Wen knew that as long as the glass contains iron, it would be inevitable that it would appear green. This is also one of the characteristics of ordinary transparent glass in that era.

He needs to make the glass as colorless as possible so that he can find another way and find a way to make money, because in this era, glass products are actually very common.

The so-called common refers to the common people who are rich and noble. Unlike the impressions of ordinary people in later generations, glass actually appeared very early in the Central Plains. In later archaeological manifestations, glass products already existed in tombs during the Warring States Period, and many of them came from the Western Regions.

The reason for saying this is that foreign glass is mainly soda lime glass, while the native glass in the Central Plains is lead-barium glass. The glass products in the tombs of the Warring States Period will have a larger proportion of lead-barium glass in the later stages. What does this mean?

This shows that in this era, the Central Plains could already burn glass, and with the glass products sold by foreign merchants from the Western Regions, glass is not an extremely rare item for the Central Plains, but a common luxury item.

Therefore, many people often use glass products as their burial after their death. Most of these glass products come from the Western Regions, and of course there are also glass products produced in the Central Plains.

The smelting technology of this era cannot refine metal zinc in large quantities, but Yuwen Wen can. After continuous testing, it has been found that zinc oxide, as a powerful flux, can effectively reduce the melting point of quartz and enhance the transparency of glass.

So after fake gold, Yuwen Wen found another way to use zinc, which can also make a lot of money, and this ingredient must be provided exclusively by him.

The amount and proportion of zinc oxide are "optimized" for river sand with high iron content in Ba water. This formula is used in river sand elsewhere. The glass burned out will become turbid and looks more like jade.

Knowledge is power. Yuwen Wen used a little trick to make transparent glass into a "Huangzhou specialty", and he had to use Bashui River sand to burn it out, which directly cut off the thoughts elsewhere.

This kind of transparent glass is not used to replace jade, but is used to make high-end floor-to-ceiling glass windows. It is the first to pay tribute to the emperor and becomes a tribute, which directly improves its quality and allows countless wealthy families to buy strongly.

The glass output of Huangzhou official kiln is sufficient for tribute every year, while the output of private kilns is used to make money. In recent days, the transactions of glass workshops in various days are extremely prosperous. When Yuwen thought of his bright "money prospect", his eyes narrowed.

"King?"

"Uh? Ah...ahhahahaha, Master Liu's report is well written, it's good!"

The boss was in a good mood, and Liu Yang felt that the opportunity had come. He carefully considered the words and mustered up the courage to say, "King, I have an idea..."

"What's your thought? Let's talk about it, I have always strongly supported the way of chemistry!"

"Uh, when I was sorting out the obtained elixir recipe, I found a elixir recipe quite interesting..." Liu Yang suddenly found Ai Ai, and Yuwen Wen couldn't help but feel funny when he saw this: "What is the content of the elixir recipe?"

"I wonder if the king knows the stone gall?"

"Master Liu, please tell me the key points."

"Ahem, this pill recipe is called 'Stone Refining Gallbladder', and the obtained thing is called green alum oil."

"Green alum oil?" Yu Wenwen felt that the term was very unfamiliar, probably some liquid chemical substance, but he was not interested in this thing. What he was interested in was why Liu Yang hesitated.

Green? Could it be a beauty product? It's sneaky. Could it cost a lot of money to study this thing? Or is there any secret that is ulterior motive?

Used to make Dali Pills, Rejuvenation Pills, Resurrection Pills, or mysterious pills?

Thinking of this, Yu Wen Wen was suddenly shocked: Wait a moment, you are not studying the medicine of spring!

My heart was beating, and a huge feeling of joy surged in my heart: there are so many rich but "incompetent" men in the world. If you really want to make this thing, I think it's okay to be rich!

Master Liu, this green... If you are interested, then study it. What can I do?" Yuwen Wen began to pretend, after all, it was too vulgar to ask about the purpose as soon as he came up.

"King, I have been studying for a long time. Now that the concentration of green alum oil is still too low, I have figured out several methods with all fellow Taoists, and want to concentrate...hehe." Liu Yang felt a little embarrassed when he said this.

“Isn’t the funds enough?”

"No, no, no, I have been studying with fellow Taoists for several years and feel that it is necessary to find a different approach and make some special containers to effectively concentrate them."

Yuwen Wen glanced at Liu Yang, endured the pain and laughed: "Do you need gold and silver to make these containers? No problem!"
