She said this with her eyes fixed on the cauldron, not even having time to wipe the sweat dripping from her chin.
The crucible in front of her is not an ordinary crucible. She spent a lot of money to buy graphite from an inkstone workshop in the south of the Yangtze River to make a graphite crucible.
Seeing her so focused, Huang Lao also had some expectations. Although the things in the crucible were all stones, what about the stones? As long as it passes through Xie Linlang's hands, even a stone can be turned into a miracle, and the previous cassiterite is the best proof.
It's a pity that Huang Lao is too old, and he will have to go out after a long stay. Mr. Liu couldn't stand the high temperature, but he was too curious about what Xie Linlang was going to do, so he insisted on staying.
Seeing this, Xie Linlang couldn't help laughing, "Mr. Liu, let's go out, the temperature here is high, be careful of heat stroke."
"No..." Uncle Mei Liu Jizong sat on the gray bench, wiped his sweat, and said seriously, "I can still hold on, I just want to see what you will turn these stones into."
He is a good learner, which Xie Linlang had learned before, but she still persuaded him when he saw that his clothes were soaking wet.
"It's just a gadget for making money. You don't have to be so persistent, sir."
Liu Jizong asked curiously when he heard the words.
"Earn money? You already have a lot of things in your hands to make money. Why do you want to make new things to make money?"
"Because the money is not enough."
"This..." This Liu Jizong really couldn't refute.
Xie Linlang was supposed to have a lot of money, but she paid high wages for the workers, and she was doing a lot of construction in Xiangcheng, so she really didn't have much money.
But as long as she stops and stops spending money, the wealth that cassiterite brings to her is enough for her to live happily for a lifetime. Why should she bother to toss herself
Besides, most talented people nowadays regard money as dung.
Real celebrities are all chasing mountains and rivers, idle clouds and wild cranes, just like he used to be, how can a talented person like Xie Linlang always be obsessed with money
Seeing that he wanted to persuade but couldn't persuade him, Xie Linlang smiled.
These celebrities have never been worried about money, and naturally they will not put money in their eyes, but she is different, she is not a celebrity.
I saw her laughing while pounding stones.
"Mr. Liu, money is still very important. The foundation of a family is money. Whether people in this family can grow up smoothly, whether they can go to school, whether they can marry a wife, and whether they can grow old, these are all inseparable. open money.
In the same way, a city is like this, and so is a country. "
Mr. Liu sounded a little inexplicable, but he sat upright involuntarily, and then listened to Xie Linlang continue.
"Furthermore, people's pursuits are not the same. Some people get a good painting and sing a good poem, they will feel very satisfied and moved, and some people will make great achievements and become famous. Reassured, touched, and I…”
Xie Linlang said this, looked up at the people around her who were working hard, and smiled lightly.
"And when I see them go home with money, happily hand over repairs to their children, buy fabrics for their wives, and buy meat for their family members, I feel very moved.
This kind of moving, I think, is the same as the splendid and beautifully written landscape, are you right? "
After she finished speaking, she smiled and looked very casual, but the words were like a blow to the head, which made Mr. Liu stunned!
Originally, he still had a lot to say. For example, a real celebrity should treat money like dung. For example, a talented person like her should write a book and make a biography to let her talent blossom into the world.
But watching Xie Linlang, dressed in coarse cloth, was sweating like ordinary workers in the kiln factory.
He suddenly felt... He was a little ashamed.
Because he asked himself, the articles written by celebrities are worthless to these ordinary people, and those who have been promoted to officials and won the world's military exploits, who did not step on the bones
There are many people who read the book of sages and sages, but how many can do what is written in the book and take the world as their own responsibility
Unexpectedly, these old pedants couldn't do it, but Xie Linlang did it as a teenager, and she worked hard every day.
Such a pattern really made him feel ashamed!
Thinking of this, he stood up, wiped his sweat, and panted.
"Young Master Xie is right. Since that's the case, I won't disturb Young Master Xie here. It's really too hot here. If Young Master Xie can't stand it, don't force it, just pay attention to your body."
Xie Linlang nodded quickly, and then saw Liu Jizong suddenly bend over and give her a big gift!
"This!" Xie Linlang was startled, stood up quickly, and helped Liu Jizong, "What do you mean, sir?"
Liu Jizong straightened up, looked at her and said with a smile.
"Young Master Xie, don't panic, listening to Jun's words is better than reading ten years of books. I didn't understand it before, but now I understand.
Xie Gongzi not only has great talent, but also has great benevolence and righteousness. He is worthy of my gift! "
Xie Linlang was dumbfounded.
"Mr. praised it. I was just talking nonsense just now. Don't think too much. If you feel uncomfortable, go back and rest early. I will have someone send you off."
Liu Jizong waved his hand quickly, "No, Young Master Xie, you are busy, I can go by myself."
After speaking, he walked briskly away, not knowing what he understood just now, but felt that the temperament of the whole person seemed to be a little different.
Xie Linlang shook her head and continued her work without thinking much.
In the evening, Qin Jue came back with the sour plum cake.
At this time, Xiaoxi was in the process of reckoning in the palace, and when he saw Qin Jue coming back, he smiled and greeted him.
Qin Jue nodded and asked strangely.
"What about him?"
No matter how busy she is, Xie Linlang will always come back to have dinner with them. Why haven't she gone home today
Xiaoxi held the pen and shook her head, "I heard that we are going to do some new experiments today, try new fuels, I guess we will be back later, why don't we eat first?"
When Qin Jue heard this, he was inexplicably uneasy. Just as he turned around and was about to go to the workshop to find Xie Linlang, suddenly, someone rushed in!
The man was covered in black ashes and had burn marks on his hands. As soon as he saw Qin Jue, he rushed over and grabbed his sleeve tightly like he saw a savior!
"Master Qin! What should I do? The tin workshop exploded, but Master Xie is still inside!"
His words stunned the whole house! Xiaoxi on the side was so shocked that she was speechless!
The next second, the oil paper bag in Qin Jue's hand smashed to the ground, and the person had already rushed out!
People on the street obviously heard the news, and they all walked out of their homes and ran towards the tin workshop.
