Chapter 1155

The next morning, Wang Yang arrived at the hidden glass workshop accompanied by the father and son of the Niu who had already arrived and waited early.

It was next door to Wang Yang's Wushan Seal Bookstore. He spent a lot of money early to buy dozens of acres of river beaches around Wushan Seal Bookstore.

When Wang Yang and his group arrived here, the fire kiln in the glass workshop was slowly emitting a faint blue smoke.

However, Manager Niu did not take Wang Yang directly to the workshop where he was working, but led Wang Yang to a warehouse first.

"What is displayed here are all the various samples produced by the craftsmen in our glass workshops over the past few years..."

"From the earliest stone lumps burned to the flat glass that can be burned now, and these are glassware made according to the blowing method you said..." After pushing open the warehouse door, Manager Niu acted as an commentator of the Great Song Glass History Museum with a red face.

Wang Yang walked in the front and looked at the various glass products placed on rows of wooden shelves with interest.

From the initial glass bumps that could not be distinguished in color, to those eccentric glassware, and below each sample.

There is a piece of paper that records where the quartz stone was used during firing, how much soda ash was used, etc.

Wang Yang stayed inside for nearly an hour, stopped in front of each sample for a long time, and read the contents on the paper in detail.

The records were very detailed. Looking at these recording papers and the glass products on them, Wang Yang seemed to have seen the hard work of these craftsmen day and night, and was able to burn the glass that looks very pure in just a few years.

After leaving this sample warehouse, Wang Yang, led by Manager Niu, walked towards the back of the glass workshop and came to the glass kiln where green smoke was rising.

At this moment, the craftsmen were busy. Wang Yang saw a craftsman use a long-handled iron spoon to scoop out a large spoon of glass solution from the red glass solution, and then pour it on the shiny and flat stone slab.

Then the two craftsmen began to crush a thick and round stone rod on it. Soon, the glass solution with flames rising from time to time was gradually crushed and flattened.

After the heat gradually dropped, I carefully clamped the flat glass with something. At this time, although the glass looked very flat, it had irregular shapes around it.

Then, after carefully cutting with diamond-made tools, another piece of smooth flat glass was revealed in front of Wang Yang and others.

Next to it, there was a craftsman who was inserting a long tube into the glass solution. After stirring up a fist-sized piece of glass solution, he turned his mouth and blew hard into the metal long tube.

Soon, the glass solution in front of the long tube began to expand, and with his advocacy, a round glassware gradually appeared.

When he felt that the shape and size of the glassware were satisfied, he took a pair of scissors and cut it, and then quickly processed the opening of the glassware.

A complete and round bottle similar to a gourd appeared in front of people.

"Good, this thing was actually blown out by his mother. This is so awesome..." Ling Zong bulged his eyes and smashed his mouth and exclaimed.

And his mouth finally alarmed the craftsmen who were busy there.

The craftsmen inside did not expect that Wang Yang, the boss, would appear at this time, and they all stopped their work and came to see him.

As the boss, Wang Yang naturally praised these craftsmen who have put in countless hard work and sweat for the glass industry.

Wang Yang not only gave these five craftsmen who have become veteran drivers of glass workshops a reward, but also promised them that when the glass workshop was officially commercialized, they would all receive dividends in the glass workshop. As a reward for their contribution to the glass workshop.

The wrinkled faces of these old craftsmen showed unconcealed shock.

"Don't be surprised, Manager Niu, take those share contracts and distribute them to these masters who have worked hard for several years for the glass workshop..."

"Boss, you, your reward is too thick. I really can't bear it..." Looking at the contract that had been prepared, Master Wang, who was in charge, was so excited that his mouth was trembling.

"You can't refuse. You have put in so much effort and sweat for Wang's affairs and this glass workshop from scratch. Without you, there wouldn't be these things, so these shares are what you deserve."

Seeing Wang Yang persisting so much, it was not polite. These old craftsmen seemed to understand that Wang Yang was telling the truth.

Now, a group of old craftsmen didn't know what to say.

Originally, they were just poor men who worked for others. When Wang Yang was boiling cement, he recruited them, allowing them to obtain a very stable job to support their families.

After that, they were allowed to enter the glass workshop, although the wages here were more than twice as high as those in the cement workshop.

However, in the early and mid-stage period, they were very worried, worried that they would be quit by their boss if they could not achieve results.

But even in more than a year, even when the glass firing work was almost inched, Wang Yang, the boss, not only did not blame them.

Instead, their wages increased by 30%. The urgency of losing their jobs and the excitement brought by the increase in wages have become the motivation to work hard to make the glass products that the owner needs.

Finally, the glass products that the boss expected were finally made, and at this time, the boss was so generous that he wanted to give them shares of the craftsmen.

This made them, the bitter craftsmen, not excited. Everyone shed hot tears on the spot. They clumsyly put their fingers on the name of the contract book, and thanked Wang Yang, the owner.

Looking at the excited old craftsmen who even stuttered thanks, Wang Yang showed a gentle and gratifying smile.

It is precisely because of their efforts that the Song Dynasty also had glass. After having glass, many of the things that Wang Yang wanted to do finally had a foundation.

"From today, the glass workshop will be expanded, and there will be a need to recruit people. It is expected that two fire kilns will be built within the month. As for the workers here, just choose from our cement workshop..."
