After Lu Mingyuan thought of the idea of ​​making glass, he started to do it.It is a difficult process to test the truth with practice, and he finally achieved something after a day of rushing and forgetting to sleep and eat.

Of course, this achievement does not mean making a large piece of transparent and impurity-free glass that can be installed on the window. After all, the conditions are too rough, and in the end he just transformed the sand into a few shiny pieces under high temperature... Glass.

Lu Mingyuan remembered that when he was in school, some classmates said that the glass was made by a group of people inadvertently while cooking at the beach, and that group made a lot of money from it.

Now, he has also produced similar things, picking and choosing among a pile of defective products and finished products, and finally selected three small round and beautiful glass blocks.Two of them are still dark blue because there is no removal of impurities.

"Ye Sheng, let's go to the city together tomorrow." Lu Mingyuan said in a good mood to Ye Sheng, who was not sure why he had been busy all day.

"It just rained heavily, and the road is not easy to walk."

"...then let's go when the weather clears up."

On this day, Lu Mingyuan and Ye Sheng sat in a rented donkey cart and walked all the way to the town.On the way, he leisurely tossed the glass block in his hand upwards and then reached out to catch it, one by one, anyone could see his joy now.

It is rare to see him showing such an expression, Ye Sheng also became happy, and he asked with a smile: "What is this? It's so beautiful."

"What is it..." Lu Mingyuan looked at the things in his hand to the sun, and replied, "Well, if you put it in the pile of stones, it's a stone, and if you put it in a pile of gems, it's a gemstone. , is a priceless treasure.”

Ye Sheng laughed, "Is it so amazing?"

"Yes!" This thing is common in modern society, but here, because it is rare, it must be a treasure.

As he said that, he thought of the expensive diamonds sold in modern society. He used to wonder why a small diamond would become a luxury item. Everlasting or something, it’s just a slogan, once the fire burns, there will be no ashes left. If it’s rare, wouldn’t it be possible to make it artificially?And artificial ones are more beautiful and purer than natural ones.

When they arrived in the city, Lu Mingyuan first took Ye Sheng to a huge pawnshop.

"For what?" The guy at the counter glanced at them and asked indifferently while looking at the account book.

"gem!"

The guy was startled, "What are you doing?"

"Gem." Lu Mingyuan repeated lightly.

"Show me," the guy said with a smile, completely different from the listless one at the beginning.

Lu Mingyuan gave him one of the blue ones as promised.The clerk picked it up and took a closer look, then shouted loudly into the inside: "Shopkeeper, come quickly... Shopkeeper..."

"What are you shouting for...you're making such a fuss..." A short, fat middle-aged man walked out of it very quickly.

The clerk didn't defend himself after being scolded by the fat shopkeeper, he just handed over the item in his hand, "Shopkeeper, what is this thing?"

The fat shopkeeper held the small piece of crystal clear glass and looked at it. His face showed a strange expression and soon returned to normal. He turned his head and looked at Lu Mingyuan and Ye Sheng. Looking like a rich man, the things in his hands are indeed rare goods.

The shopkeeper cleared his throat, and said: "It looks pretty, but I can't tell what it is, this price..." He paused, looked at Lu Mingyuan and said, "Why don't you tell me about you?" How much do you want?"

Lu Mingyuan sneered inwardly, and asked him to say that he didn't think he could say a high price, right?

"1 taels," he said.

"What?" The shopkeeper was startled, and immediately laughed out loud, "Don't you know what 1 taels is, my lord?"

"It was you who asked me to make an offer." He said calmly.

The shopkeeper sighed, knowing that this person was not easy to dismiss, and said in a deep voice, "We won't go around in circles anymore, 100 taels, how about it?"

"The shop is better than three, I'll go and see other shops." He pulled Ye Sheng and turned around to leave.

"My lord...wait a minute...wait a moment..." the shopkeeper said in a hurry.

Lu Mingyuan stopped and looked back, without saying a word, with a clear meaning, waiting for his next words.

"How much money is negotiable, can you tell me the origin of this thing?"

"Well, I don't steal or snatch it anyway, it's mine." He thought for a while, then smiled and said, "It was dug up in our yard."

"Dug it out?"

"Last night, I had a dream. I dreamed that a golden phoenix landed in the yard of our house. It seemed to have something in its mouth. Then the phoenix lowered its head and suddenly disappeared."

Lu Mingyuan didn't change his face, and he wrote the story smoothly: "That dream was so real. When I got up today, I couldn't help but dig where the phoenix stayed. I didn't expect to find the treasure."

The shopkeeper stared at Lu Mingyuan blankly, not knowing what to say.He was a little skeptical in his heart, but, apart from such an explanation, how could the other party, a man with the appearance of a banker in ordinary clothes, have such a thing?The most important thing is that he really can't tell what the material of this thing is. Could it be a rare treasure from heaven?

"Oh..." Lu Mingyuan suddenly said in surprise, "I suddenly felt that this thing of mine cannot be sold. If it not only looks good, but also brings good luck or something, then it would be a great loss for me to sell it."

The shopkeeper came back to his senses, "No, you said you would sell it, we can negotiate the price..."

After some entanglement, Lu Mingyuan sold the three pieces of glass for a full 2000 taels.

Before leaving, although the shopkeeper felt a bit of pain because he gave too much money, he looked at the baby through the sun and felt that it was really beautiful, and he really picked up the baby.

Except for the pawnshop, Ye Sheng didn't seem to have recovered, and staggered when going down the steps.

"Be careful." Lu Mingyuan supported him in time, and asked a little worriedly, "What's wrong?"

"...a lot of money." Ye Sheng said a little silly.

"Yeah." He smiled back softly.

The two walked on the street for a long time, and Ye Sheng felt a little out of shape. Just when Lu Mingyuan frowned and thought about whether to take him to see a doctor, Ye Sheng suddenly opened his eyes wide and looked at him, and said in surprise: "You were the one just now. Make up a story to trick that..."

Lu Mingyuan stretched out his index finger and gently placed it on Ye Sheng's lips. Seeing that his voice stopped immediately, he chuckled and said, "Did you just react?"

"Let's talk about this when we go back, huh?" Lu Mingyuan took his hand and asked.

Ye Sheng nodded obediently, and said no more.

Lu Mingyuan put his arms around his waist lightly, trying to reassure him.For Ye Sheng, the impact of 2000 taels of silver was indeed too great.

"Believe me."

"Ah."

It took a long time before Ye Sheng blushed and pushed Lu Mingyuan's arm around him away. Lu Mingyuan laughed, relieved, and finally returned to normal.

On the bustling street, Ye Sheng seemed to be full of interest and curiosity about everything, but at the same time seemed a little reserved.

"Do you rarely come here?" he asked.

"Well, the most recent time seems to be three or four years ago when I went shopping with my aunt."

"After that, I will often take you there..." Lu Mingyuan stroked his hair, and was about to say something when he suddenly stopped.

Ye Sheng saw that he stopped talking suddenly, and followed his condensed gaze.

Lu Mingyuan's eyes fell on a man in light blue clothes. That man was walking forward facing them from the other side of the street. He was extremely handsome, a beauty Ye Sheng had never seen before. He There is also a bright red point between her eyebrows, which is a double.

He pursed his lips lightly, looking a bit cold and cheerless, but even so, many people on the street couldn't move their eyes away. It seemed that everyone who looked at him was full of admiration, obsession, or envy and jealousy .

Being watched and sized up by so many people overtly and secretly, that person seemed to be unaware of it, and walked forward without looking sideways.

Ye Sheng withdrew his gaze, and looked up at Lu Mingyuan beside him. Like many people on the street, he cast his eyes on the beautiful Shuang'er by the roadside.

Ye Sheng lowered his eyes with a gloomy expression.He felt unprecedented discomfort in his heart, and the previous joy and excitement disappeared all of a sudden.

Lu Mingyuan quickly turned his head, he saw that something was wrong with Ye Sheng, and asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's okay." Ye Sheng replied in a low voice.

"Is there anything you want to buy?"

"No, if you want to buy something, let's go now!" Ye Sheng said with a smile, trying to keep himself as usual and not let Lu Mingyuan see anything.

His cover-up did not escape Lu Mingyuan's eyes.After staring at Ye Sheng for a while, he said, "If you feel uncomfortable, just say it."

"I'm fine." Ye Sheng still insisted.

He no longer forced him to say anything, took him away, and planned to buy a stove to go home, and then see if there were any shops that could be leased so that he could open a restaurant or something.

What Lu Mingyuan didn't know was that the moment he and Ye Sheng left, Meiyan Shuang'er, whom he had just watched for a while, also looked sideways at him, and that person's cold and beautiful eyes flickered, watching him leave He was absent-minded for a moment, and then he curled his lips slightly, and after a self-deprecating smile, his stunning face instantly returned to his usual indifference, and he walked forward smoothly.

Along the way, Lu Mingyuan told Ye Sheng what he was thinking, but Ye Sheng's expression was always disgusted, as if he had no interest in everything he said, and he didn't say anything except occasionally echoing a few words. What other words came out.

Ye Sheng's appearance also gradually made Lu Mingyuan lose interest. After buying some necessary and necessary additions, he went back by car with Ye Sheng.

In the evening, Lu Mingyuan lit the stove, and the room immediately became much warmer. Ye Sheng was still taking a bath in the small tub in the bedroom.In today's weather, it is impossible for him to go outside to take a shower.So, he thought about it, or just use that small tub to make do with it?

It's just that Ye Sheng took a very long bath tonight, much longer than before. Lu Mingyuan finished all the work he could do in the kitchen, and no one came out.

Could it be that he fell asleep in it?

Thinking like this, for some reason, he also forgot to knock on the door, so he pushed open the bedroom door and went in.

Ye Sheng was lying on the edge of the tub, stretching his arms, struggling to pick up the towel that fell on the floor. In order to pick up the towel, his entire back seemed to be exposed, so Lu Mingyuan clearly... saw a lot.

He froze for a moment, then stepped forward, intending to pick up the towel and hand it to Ye Sheng.

But he didn't want to, Ye Sheng raised his head and glanced at him, and suddenly retracted himself into the water, as if he was frightened.

Lu Mingyuan paused, and really wanted to say, 'They're all men, so what? '

But after thinking about it rationally, it seemed that it was not quite right to say so, so he just kept walking forward in silence.

"Don't come here." Ye Sheng almost submerged himself in the water, only showing his head and said urgently to Lu Mingyuan.

The author has something to say: Spoiler alert, a big beauty will appear next, oh, no, he has already appeared, haha!
