Before Ang Lee refined the medicinal jade, he prepared a large number of molds. Now, these molds were all filled with cooled medicinal jade. Of course, he obtained a large number of good things that Ang Lee wanted. [Love ↑ Go △ Little ↑ Say △ w]

In addition to the two small mirrors that he had already given to Li Yu and Li Qiu, Ang Lee also made two large mirrors. One was a full-body mirror that was taller than a person, and the other was a desk mirror that was half a person's height. These two things were the largest objects that he had made this time. Of course, they were for his wife, Yan Ruyu. Yan Ruyu was so beautiful. Of course, she should have such a practical mirror.
At this moment, Ang Lee could even see Yan Ruyu's indescribable excitement when she received the mirror.
In addition, there were some concave and convex lenses. They were all products of inverted molds. When combined, they could become telescopes. However, they still needed to be made according to the size of the telescopes. Therefore, the production of the telescopes still needed some time.
Ang Lee took out the cooled concave and convex lenses and handed them to the craftsman. At the same time, he also handed the drawings that he had drawn to the craftsman. He asked the craftsman to make the lens barrel and fix the concave and convex lenses on the lens barrel to form a telescope that could be used easily.
Of course, the telescopes that Ang Lee made were not the binoculars of later generations. They were relatively simple monoculars. Moreover, he made ten of them at once. There were also ten different sizes. There were large and small objective lenses. There were hand-held models with eight magnification and ten magnification. There were also fixed models with thirty magnification and fifty magnification that required a fixed tripod. Of course, these magnification ratios were not accurate. They were only approximate. Ang Lee did not have advanced equipment, so he could not be very accurate, but it was enough.
Although the telescopes had not been made yet, Li Yu and Li Qiu were already a little impatient. They couldn't wait to try the telescopes immediately and see if they could really see the scenery hundreds of miles away.
Seeing that they were so eager, Ang Lee could only tell them that it would definitely be done by the morning of the day after tomorrow. At that time, they would be the first to experience it. This made the two of them very happy, but at the same time, they also felt a little regretful. After all, there was still a whole day to go. How torturous it must be to feel that way!
"Assistant Minister Li, the words are ready. Please take a look."
A craftsman placed the newly made movable type on a plate for Ang Lee to inspect.
"It's already calcined. This is great. Come, let's try the printing effect. Bring some paper and ink over."
When Ang Lee saw that the movable type was ready, he was very happy and prepared to test it immediately to see the printing effect.
"Assistant Minister Li, here's the paper and ink."
"Alright, let's begin! First, fill up a tray with movable type and see the printing effect. "
Ang Lee gave the order and worked together with the craftsmen. They piled the messy movable type on a tray, then smeared ink on the engraved part and pressed white paper on it. After pressing it firmly, they removed it.
"Hehe, it's really not bad. The effect is better than I imagined."
Ang Lee was quite satisfied with the effect of the movable type printing. He didn't expect that movable type printing could have such a good effect. It greatly surprised him.
"Assistant Minister Li, this mess won't do. I can't read it!"
Li Yu furrowed his brows.
"Of course not. I'm just trying the effect. Now, let's print a poem. Let's do this!"
Ang Lee chose a famous poem and found the movable type needed for this poem one by one. Then, he arranged them neatly and began to print.
"Look, the effect is not bad. It's not much different from the printing of wood carvings!"
Ang Lee said proudly. However, he also realized a serious problem. That was, there was no pinyin in ancient times. All the Chinese characters were placed in a mess. When needed, it was difficult to find the characters needed immediately. This would greatly reduce the practicality of movable type printing.
In this way, it was imperative to propose pinyin. As long as the Chinese characters were divided into 26 groups, it would be much more convenient to find the characters in each group. Moreover, in each group, it could continue to be divided into groups according to the second letter. In this way, the characters needed could be quickly found, and the movable type printing would be more practical.
The biggest feature of movable type printing was its flexibility. Just think about it. It took a lot of effort to carve a template. Moreover, as long as a character was carved wrongly, the template that was painstakingly made would be abandoned.
It was also because of the difficulty of preparing templates. Therefore, as long as there was not a particularly large demand, a template would not be specially prepared. Instead, it would be manually copied.
Therefore, as long as movable type printing was popularized, it would greatly benefit the scholars of the Tang dynasty. Thus, it would further promote the rapid development of the Tang dynasty's cultural undertakings.
Li Yu and Li Qiu were in a daze. They were not very interested in movable type printing. Instead, they had a special liking for the mirror in their hands. Of course, they wanted to have the telescope that Ang Lee mentioned. This was the good thing they wanted.
"It's getting late. Let's go back to the city! Also, you don't have to come tomorrow. I have to attend the morning court. You can come the day after tomorrow and see the telescope I mentioned. "
Seeing that it was getting late, Ang Lee decided to return to Chang 'an City with Li Yu and Li Qiu. The next morning, he had to attend the morning court. Therefore, he gave Li Yu and Li Qiu a day off and told them not to come. In the afternoon, he had to have a good rest and make some mirrors. After all, such a good thing must be given to Li Longji. Otherwise, if he knew, he would be very unhappy.
Li Yu and Li Qiu said goodbye and left first. Ang Lee asked Wang Ba to prepare the men to put the newly made mirrors on the carriage. He was going to send them back to the mansion and give them to his wife, Yan Ruyu. Of course, he also wanted to give some to Cao, Xiaoyin, and Xiaomeng. He only needed to give them some smaller mirrors.
The full-body mirrors, which were taller than a person, were relatively bulky and required two male servants to carry them. The half-body mirrors, on the other hand, were easier to carry, as one person could carry them. In addition, apart from these mirrors, Li An had also inverted many square glass blocks. Naturally, he wanted to replace the windows in the house. The transparency of windows made of white paper was too poor, and the warmth retention was far inferior to glass. It was natural that they would be replaced.
These bulky things were loaded into a whole carriage. In order to speed up and return to the city before the city gate closed, Ang Lee was responsible for pulling the carriage with two horses.
"Alang, you're back?"
Zhao Liu had been busy in the mansion for an entire day. He had just walked out of the mansion to catch his breath when he saw Ang Lee return. Moreover, he brought a carriage full of things.
"Zhao Liu, find a few more men and prepare to help in the backyard."
"Yes, Alang."
Ang Lee waved his hand and let the carriage enter the mansion. Then, it went through the narrow path and went straight to the backyard.
"Okay, stop."
After entering the backyard, Ang Lee stopped the carriage.
"Alang, what are these?"
When Cao 'er saw the transport truck, she quickly walked over.
"Cao, Alang has a gift for you. Here, take it. See if you like it."
Ang Lee handed a small mirror to Cao and said with a smile.
"Wow, this is a mirror. It's so clear. Thank you, Alang."
Cao was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth. It was the first time she had seen such a good mirror. And Ang Lee was so generous to give it to her. This made her very surprised, but at the same time, she was also very happy. There was even a trace of sweetness in her heart.
A few days ago, when Ang Lee was half drunk, he said hotly that Cao would be his woman in the future. Although it was only in the future, it was enough to make her happy. And this time, Ang Lee gave her such a good gift. Naturally, a very sweet feeling welled up in her heart.
"Look at how happy you are. Where's Madam?"
Ang Lee touched Cao's head and asked.
"Madam is reading in the room. She shouldn't be reading now. "
Cao smiled, and there was a hint of teasing in her smile.
That's right, the handsome and suave husband was back. No matter how good Yan Ruyu's willpower was, it was difficult for her to continue reading the book.
"Alang, everyone is here. What do you want to do?"
Zhao Lu, along with a group of male servants, excitedly rushed over.
"Uh, carry these two mirrors into the room first. Then, tear off all the paper on the window and replace it with medicinal jade. Remember, this thing needs to be fixed properly. This thing is fragile."
Ang Lee ordered and stepped into the room.
"Oh, so Alang has two such big mirrors. No wonder he was so generous and gave me the small one."
Cao pursed her lips slightly, but she soon felt better. After all, she was a part of the dowry and her status was lower. Of course, she had to give good things to Yan Ruyu. Besides, given her relationship with Yan Ruyu, the mirror that she gave to Yan Ruyu could be used in the future.
You must be careful not to break it. Yes, just put it here. This smaller one is on the table by the window. Yes, that's right. Just put it like that. Okay, you can go out. "
Ang Lee personally instructed the servants to put the two big mirrors in the most suitable position.
"Husband, what did you move in? It's so big."
Yan Ruyu looked curiously at the big things covered by the red cloth and asked.
"Madam, take a guess."
Yan Ruyu pursed her lips and said, "How can I guess?"
Ang Lee took a step forward, picked up the bronze mirror that was originally on the table, and threw it out.
"Husband, why did you throw the bronze mirror away? You bought it for me during the Spring Lantern Festival last year. Hmph!"
Yan Ruyu was very angry. Ang Lee threw away the bronze mirror that she had always liked without saying anything. No matter how well-mannered she was, she would still be angry.
Ang Lee took another step forward and hugged Yan Ruyu who was fuming. He kissed Yan Ruyu's eyes and said sincerely, "My wife is the most beautiful woman in the world. How can such a broken bronze mirror be worthy of my wife's peerless beauty? Wouldn't it be better to throw it away?"
Yan Ruyu was a little touched when she heard this. She immediately reacted and said anxiously, "Husband, you moved a mirror in? It must be a better mirror. However, the original mirror is already very good. How good can it be? "
After guessing that it was a mirror, Yan Ruyu felt very puzzled. The original mirror she used was already very good. It was polished by the best master in the capital. How good could Ang Lee get?
"Madam, you will know how good this mirror is after taking a look at it."
Ang Lee was still keeping her in suspense.
Yan Ruyu broke away from Ang Lee and walked to the table. She reached out and removed the red cloth covering the mirror. Suddenly, as if her acupoints were pressed, she opened her mouth and looked at herself in the mirror motionlessly.
Ang Lee hugged Yan Ruyu from behind and said softly in Yan Ruyu's ear, "Madam, now you know how beautiful your face is!"
"Husband, where did you buy this mirror? How can you know it so clearly?"
Yan Ruyu bit her lips hard. She suspected that she was dreaming, but the pain from her lips convinced her that everything was real. She was not dreaming.
"This mirror can't be bought anywhere. I made it for my wife by myself. How about it? Do you like it?"
Ang Lee gently bit Yan Ruyu's little ear and said sincerely.
"I like it. I like it very much. My husband is so good to Ruyu."
Yan Ruyu was moved and shrank into Ang Lee's arms like a docile kitten.
"Madam, this is just a small one. What about a bigger one?"
Ang Lee reminded her with a smile. He picked up Yan Ruyu and put her in front of the standing mirror.
"Wow, husband, this mirror is so good. It can reflect the whole body. Thank you so much. Mwah."
Yan Ruyu was moved and kissed Ang Lee on the mouth.
Ang Lee, of course, wanted to return the favor and nibbled on it.
"Ang, the windows are all done."
Grass walked into the room and saw the happy scene between Ang Lee and Yan Ruyu. She immediately smiled shyly and ran out.
"Husband, what did Grass say about the windows?"
"It's nothing. I just replaced the paper on one of the windows with medicinal jade. This way, the room will be brighter during the day."
Ang Lee explained softly and took Yan Ruyu to the next room to take a look. Then, he let everyone go back to rest.
After returning to the bedroom, Yan Ruyu lit a few more candles and stood in front of the standing mirror. She posed in different ways to admire her beautiful face.
Ang Lee was lying on the couch next to her. He smiled and admired Yan Ruyu's posture. He enjoyed it very much.
"Wife, haven't you seen enough? The days are still long. Let's see tomorrow! "
How could Ang Lee endure looking at the beauty like this? He stood up and walked to Yan Ruyu's side. He hugged Yan Ruyu from behind and kissed Yan Ruyu's ear.
"Husband, let me look for a while more."
"Don't look anymore. Husband is hungry. I really want to …"
Ang Lee smiled mischievously.
"Hateful. I want to eat steamed buns again."
Yan Ruyu rolled her eyes at Ang Lee.
"Yes! Two is enough. Wife must be hungry too! "
Ang Lee touched Yan Ruyu's slender waist and slowly walked down.
"No, no, husband is too much. Big bad guy …"
Yan Ruyu blushed.
"Ah, you dare to say that husband is a big bad guy. Today, even if I can't, I will."
