After getting off the car, Zhao Qi led the three of them to the front of the car.

"This car has a large space and flexible turn. Because the four-wheeled wheels are under pressure, the load is much larger than that of ordinary carriages. Even if you ride seven or eight people, it doesn't seem crowded. The only requirement is that the rivets between the front and rear wheels must be made of high-quality steel. In order to reduce friction loss, grease is often needed to be lubricated and maintained to avoid breaking and overturning..."

"My friend, what are the uses of these two templates that the groom stepped on?" Wu Wenying asked curiously at the two wooden boards under the feet of the winter melon.

"This is the brake, and the hemp rope is connected to the two wooden strips on the rear wheel. If the car goes downhill or the horse is frightened, the car can be stepped on the wooden board. The rope tightens and drive the wooden strips to jamm the wheel, so that the speed can be slowed down. However, this item can only be used as a backup. In daily life, the driver still needs to control the cattle and horse to use the shaft to slow down..."

After Zhao Qi finished speaking, the three old men squatted down and watched the brake structure in detail.

In order for Wu Qian and others to see more clearly, Zhao Qi asked Donggua to lead the horse away, and then asked a group of servants to simply turn the carriage over and explain in detail the structure of the carriage chassis and brakes.

"Nephew Zhao Xian has indeed had superpowers. Although the seemingly inconspicuous changes have actually increased the effectiveness of the carriage several times. This car can not only ride more people, but also use it to transport goods, its effectiveness is even more immeasurable. One car can be used as several two-wheeled carriages!" After reading it, Wu Qian was very impressed and sighed.

"Brother Luzhai, this car is so convenient and spacious. Why don't you call craftsmen to come and check it carefully and build one for yourself? Wouldn't it be easy and convenient to go out in the future?" Wu Wenying reminded next to her.

"Haha, Brother Junte, I'm afraid you want one, just come here, call the craftsmen from the Public Carriage Bureau to come, carefully observe the structure of the four-wheeled carriage, quickly build a few cars in case of business operations, and at the same time build three for the mansion!" Wu Qian agreed after a moment of consideration.

"Yes, lord!" After the housekeeper agreed, he quickly arranged for the servants to go out. Zhao Qi and others went back to the living room to sit down. The girl also followed behind and stood quietly beside Wu Qian. Looking at the pile of crystal clear crystal glass products placed on the table, her face was filled with all kinds of surprise and envy. Sometimes she would secretly look at Zhao Qi, and seemed a little shy and turned her head quickly.

"Just just now, I must have missed a person!" After taking a few sips of tea, Wu Wenying glanced at the girl, put down the teacup and said with a smile.

"Fortunately, Jueweng reminded me that I almost forgot!"

Zhao Qi quickly stood up and walked to the front of the wooden box and searched for a while. He took out a flat-length wooden box from it and walked to the girl and said with a smile: "Last time, Miss Yuechan went to Xiaolongwan, Yanggong Town, I happened to be kidnapped by a thief. I missed the meeting and failed to entertain the landlords as a friend. I came to visit today and prepared a small gift for the girl. Please don't dislike me!"

"Thank you, Mr. Zhao!" The girl saluted with blessed body, and took the wooden box with red cheeks.

"My friend will definitely give gifts. Why don't Qing'er open it in public and let me open my eyes together and see what gifts I specially prepared for you?" Wu Wenying smiled and spoke again.

"Haha, Jueweng said it well, Qing'er, open it and take a look!" Ye Mengding was in the most refreshing mood at this time.

The girl's cheeks were even redder, and it was not good to open the box while holding it, and it was not good not to open it.

"Qing'er opens it and lets Mr. Jueweng and Mr. Xijian take a look. Grandpa also wants to see what kind of gift Dalang gives you!" Even Wu Qian said with a kind smile on his face.

"Then...then Qing'er will open it for her grandfather and the two gentlemen to see!"

The girl knew that Ye Mengding and Wu Wenying were teasing her, so she shook her a few times and put the box on the table to open it. The moment she opened it, the girl's body trembled slightly and opened her mouth, and the expression on her face became extremely shocked. Her eyes were staring straight into the box, and she stood quietly and didn't move, as if she was immobilized.

"What is this?" The girl's actions obviously aroused everyone's interest, and Wu Wenying even stood up and walked to the girl.

"What... what is this?" The moment when his eyes fell into the box, Wu Wenying was shocked and exclaimed loudly as if she was struck by lightning.

"I'm here to take a look!" Ye Mengding couldn't help it, and strode to the table, looked at it with a look, and then his body shook suddenly.

"Is this... a mirror?" After a moment of shock, Ye Mengding took out a silver-white object from the box with slightly trembling hands. It looked like it was a half-foot-long silver handle with a silver round frame the size of a palm above.

At this time, the mirror presents an old face with slightly gray hair and hair, with all the frowns of eyebrows and eyebrows, and even the tiny pores on the skin can be clearly seen.

"How wonderful, there is such a clear mirror in the world. Is this a magical object?" Ye Mengding looked at an old face in the mirror that he had never seen clearly, and his skin kept shaking gently.

"Xijian, let me see!" Wu Wenying also came to her senses and snatched the mirror in Ye Mengding's hand. Looking at the same clear and gray-haired, thin and clear face inside, she couldn't help but grimace and frowned, to confirm that what was hidden inside was not his twin brother or another ghost.

"What kind of mirror? It can make Xijian and Jueweng so unconscious!"

The two friends' surprise movements and expressions immediately seduced Wu Qian into his heart. They left the seat and walked over to take a look, then shook their hands and pulled off a few beards. In the mirror as big as a palm, they could even see Wu Wenying and half of his old face clearly, as if they were looking at it in front of them.

To be sad, in fact, the ancients were a bit sad because there was no clear mirror. In fact, basically everyone never knew what they looked like in their lifetime. Those who had no money could only look at the water. Those who had money could use bronze mirrors, but bronze mirrors were valuable, and only those rich and nobles who were rich and wealthy families could afford it. Even if they had bronze mirrors, they could not see clearly. The production was not flat, the polished was not bright enough, and the mirrors they made were as hazy as they could not see carefully.

Therefore, in ancient times, looking in the mirror was basically hazy and beautiful, so I could only look at it roughly.

But the mirror that Zhao Qi took out today completely subverted the three of them.

"Brother Junte shows me!" Seeing the lure happy, Wu Qian also abandoned his usual majesty and steadiness, took the mirror from Wu Wenying's hand and began to carefully compare. The three gray-haired old men squeezed together and rushed to look in the mirror, happily and surprised like three children.

"Grandpa~" The girl was abandoned by the side and could only tiptoe to pull Wu Qian's sleeve.

"Okay, OK, this is a gift from Zhao Dalang to Qing'er. Don't snatch us old men!" Wu Qian handed the mirror to the girl, and the three old men then returned to their chairs to sit down.

"Little friend..." Wu Wenying looked at Zhao Qi with anticipation.

"Your Majesty Jue doesn't have to speak, I'm gone!" Zhao Qi shook his head with a wry smile on his face.

"Alas~" Wu Wenying and Ye Mengding sighed and shook their heads at the same time.

Wu Qian looked at the girl: "Is Qing'er still satisfied with this gift from Zhao Dalang?"

The girl looked at Zhao Qi with a pretty face blushing and then lowered her head and looked like a mosquito, "Qing'er is satisfied!"

"It's good to be satisfied. Take the gift first, hide it carefully, and ask the housekeeper to prepare a banquet and invite Zhao Dalang and two of you to the luncheon!" Wu Qian nodded.

"Yes, grandpa!" The girl put away the mirror and hugged it in her arms, gave everyone a blessing and left the living room.

Today, Zhao Qi suddenly came, not only bringing a few luxurious and expensive glass products, but also a novel four-wheeled carriage and a magical mirror, which made the meeting much more lively.

During the next tea chat, Wu Qian and others asked about the details of these glasses. Zhao Qi naturally said that the production process was extremely difficult, only saying that it was a combination of Chinese glass craftsmanship and Dashi's glass craftsmanship. The combination of the things and the things were integrated. It took a lot of money and repeated trials to finally get these useful things.

Although Wu Qian and others had never seen such exquisite and crystal clear glass, as the top figures of the Song Dynasty, they naturally had extraordinary experiences. They had also seen many precious glasses and Dashi glasses. Therefore, they all thought that just like Zhao Qi said, these crystal glasses were really complicated to make, and they all felt sincerely grateful and gratitude for Zhao Qi to be able to deliver these priceless treasures.

They believe that any of these glass products will be precious items that the palace has never had. If it is about money, it is probably possible to have tens of thousands of guan, especially the galloping horse given to Wu Qian and the mirror given to Qing'er. If these two things appear in the capital, someone will definitely be willing to buy them with 100,000 guan.

There is no such thing as it is too exquisite, too rare and too precious.

In the eyes of several people, the galloping horse is second to the mirror.

Therefore, during the chat, several people were most interested in this mirror, and Zhao Qi did not hide it too much, saying that although the process of this crystal glass is complicated, the mirror is not complicated. It only inlaid the glass on a polished silver mirror, but the method of making the glass is not said much.

In fact, Zhao Qi himself felt that the success of this mirror was amazing, because he had not planned to make a mirror since the beginning. After all, the mirror silver plating process is not possible at present. After using the selected completely transparent crystal material to make several three lampshades, there was still some remaining materials left. It was not enough to do anything else. It was a pity that it solidified. So Zhao Qi asked someone to find a bronze mirror and cast a flat glass with it as the base. Before it was completely solidified, Old Man Cui carefully cut a piece of palm-sized round glass from it with a knife.

With this piece of glass, Zhao Qi asked someone to go to the town to put a piece of silver foil and stick it behind it. He found that the silver foil was not flat enough, and the figures reflected were very deformed. Later, Old Man Cui suggested that he could make a small silver mirror with silver, and then embed the glass on the silver mirror and seal it with glue and paint around it. After this, the silver mirror would not gradually become blurred after being isolated from the air. Zhao Qi was kind enough. Anyway, there was too much silver to use, so he directly took ten taels of silver and threw it to Old Man Cui. Three days later, Old Man Cui gave him this mirror.

In fact, how good this mirror is, in Zhao Qi's opinion, it is not as good as the small round mirrors in later grocery stores. After all, with the limitations of the polishing and polishing process, it is impossible for the silver mirror to be polished to a clear and visible level, and this flat glass is far from reaching the level of complete flatness and smoothness. Together, Zhao Qi can see it clearly, which is indeed much clearer than a bronze mirror.

But that's all. In fact, when you look closely, the figure is still slightly deformed.
