Lord Harland.

Chapter 120 Firing Glass

Feeling that Sophia might be pregnant, Richard suddenly felt extremely happy and excited.

In his previous life, Li Cha had a daughter. When he first time traveled, he missed his daughter all the time.

Thinking about never seeing her daughter again, sometimes I even want to die.

I hope that after death, I can travel back.

Li Cha gritted his teeth and survived the pain in his heart. Time is the best medicine to heal pain.

After coming to this world for more than ten years, my daughter's appearance seems to have become blurred, and the unspeakable pain of that time seems to have become an unforgettable memory.

Life is still going on, Li Cha is already married in Chenxi Continent, has a new family, and is about to usher in a new life.

Recalling the past events scene by scene, Richard suddenly remembered the faces of his family members. His nose suddenly felt sore and his eyes were filled with tears.

"Just be pregnant if you're pregnant. Why are you crying?"

"It's nothing, I'm just too excited. Since you feel tired, you should rest for a few days and put aside what you are doing. If you are really pregnant, you must not work too hard. This is your first pregnancy, so you have to pay attention to yourself. Body."

Since May, Richard has been busy setting up the Warcraft cavalry. From the soldier barracks, the cavalry training ground, training equipment, living supplies, and even the stables for the Warcraft horses, Richard needs to worry about everything.

In this busy life, three months passed and it entered mid-August.

This year's autumn harvest has started again, but this time Li Cha doesn't need to keep an eye on it. The autumn harvest work is handed over to his cousin Tang En. Li Cha just looks at the statistics and checks the granary to know how much grain has been harvested this year.

Over the course of three months, Sophia gradually showed obvious signs of pregnancy. Her belly gradually became larger and her face became more rounded as the pregnancy progressed.

The two have been married for two years, and now they finally have a child of their own.

After confirming her pregnancy, Sophia stopped her magic research and returned to Sophia Castle to raise her baby.

The upper echelon of the territory also attaches great importance to this child.They all swore to Richard Sophia, willing to be loyal to this unborn child.

Although William has not publicly discussed it, he will hand over the territory to Richard for inheritance.

But looking at his training of Richard, it is obvious that he regards Richard as his successor.

Even in order to establish Richard's prestige, William rarely came to the territory.

Even though Richard is not the first heir to the William throne, Ron and Hayden are ahead of him in the succession order.

But the succession of noble titles does not only depend on the order of succession, but also on who is supported within the territory?

Without prestige in the territory and without enough supporters, even if the succession is higher, it is basically impossible to inherit the territory.

Because there will be pressure inside the territory to ask you to give up your right of inheritance.

If they don't know how to promote, they will even use violent methods, assassinations and attacks to physically eliminate their opponents and support the people they support to rise to power.

Unless you have the power to suppress opposition.

For example, Ron, if he inherits the territory, members of the Harland family such as Powell and Bernie may not obey him.

When William was promoted to baronet, Richard, Powell, and Bernie all made great efforts.

The military exploits of the three people add up to more than four great achievements, and this barony is not only the territory of William alone.

They worked hard throughout their lives to become hereditary nobles, and they all had a say in the selection of their heirs.

They don't want the foundation they have worked hard for all their lives to be handed over to a mediocre person.

What's more troublesome is that the military forces in the territory will not easily obey Ron's command.

Even the civil affairs, agriculture, and industry departments with the weakest influence may fool him.

It is impossible to inherit a complete territory by relying on one title alone.

If Li Cha inherits the territory, there will be no such problems.

His ability has already been affirmed by Bernie and Powell, and he formed the army by himself. No matter in terms of ability or prestige, commanding the army is not a problem.

Besides, Li Cha also has deep feelings with some military officers, and emotionally, they are not willing for Ron to inherit the territory.

The industrial department was created by Li Cha himself, and every key member was promoted by him. Li Cha also has a very high influence on the bureaucrats in charge of industry and agriculture.

Even if Ron is unwilling and has resentment in his heart, he must give up his inheritance rights in this situation.

Hayden has discussed with Richard that during the family meeting this Christmas, he will give up his inheritance rights and take the initiative to clarify this issue.

In August, the glass kiln was successfully put into operation, producing the first furnace of glass in the territory.

It's a pity that there are still many bubbles in the glass, and the color is not very pure. After processing by the glassmaker, this batch of glass was made into glass wine bottles and handed over to Mrs. Ola's tavern.

Firing glass is not easy. It requires six major processes: material selection, melting, mold preparation, pouring, cooling, and polishing.

There are many details in each craft, and some even require the craftsman to have superb skills.

Fortunately, there were already experienced kiln-firing masters in Harland's territory. Even if they had never fired glass, they were already very sensitive to the temperature at the kiln mouth, so they fired the first furnace of glass.

Li Cha knows that the glass industry is a precursor to the chemical industry, and without the glass industry, it would be difficult to develop the chemical industry.

The glass craftsman Richard spent fifty gold coins to buy was not of high quality, so he relied on experience. But relying on these people, Harland Territory did not make many detours, and finally burned glass.

Sometimes in industrial manufacturing, a small detail can be stuck for many years.Before purchasing these glass craftsmen, the Harland Territory burned glass for several years without success. The glass craftsman came to give pointers, and Li Cha suddenly discovered that it is not difficult to burn glass at all.

Through these people, Li Cha learned how to design the glass kiln, the formula of the glass, how high the temperature needs to be, how to remove air bubbles, how to fire colorless or various colored glass, and how to blow the finished product?

After several failures, the craftsmen of the glass kiln summed up their experience and found that the reason why the glass is impure is that there are too many impurities in the soda used before.

Richard sent people to buy a batch of natural soda from Jonathan's territory, and then mixed the soda with limestone and river sand for calcination.

After the burnt glass slurry is fully stirred to remove some air bubbles, it is blown into containers of various shapes with a blowpipe.

After purchasing pure soda, the fired glass immediately improved a lot, barely meeting Richard's requirements.

Richard first asked the glassmaker to blow a batch of experimental utensils such as cups, test tubes, and distillation bottles, and handed them over to Wendy and Adrian.

They all need to do experiments and use a lot of glassware every year.

Now that glass can be produced in the territory, Richard does not need to buy Viscount Roman's glass products at a high price.

As for the large pieces of transparent glass that Richard needed, the glass kiln directly cast a batch of copper molds. By using the pouring method, the large piece of transparent glass that Richard needed was successfully produced.

The glass kiln was successfully put into operation, and the industry in the territory has improved a bit.
